Planet Gloom

Gloom is a mod for Quake II, not a standalone game. You require the full version of Quake II to be able to play gloom. For your convenience, the Quake II demo and the 3.20 retail patch are available on the PlanetGloom FTP.

The Gloom .pak files are optimized with PakOptimz to remove redundant data, allowing for smaller file sizes and faster load times. Some pak file editors are incompatible with this modified structure and will corrupt the pak if you attempt to edit it. PakExplorer users should ensure that the "Recover free space automatically" option is disabled as this will cause optimized .pak files to become corrupted simply by opening them.
