The first method is to place the.wad file of the map into the skins folder in the Zandronum installation directory (create skins if it does not exist), and to launch Brutal Doom as in points 1) and 2). On start up you may have to choose between Doom 1 (Ultimate Doom) and Doom2, most often you will have to pick Doom 2. How to install Brutal Doom/HDoom Download the Doom Pack.

Brutal Doom [official site] isn’t your grandfather’s Doom II, is the sort of thing I’d say if I wrote for a games magazine in the ’90s. Its reworked weapons, enemies, and combat do change Doom an awful lot, making it an ultraviolent new game with a friendly old look. Now Brutal Doom has its very own story campaign, blasting through a Mars base, down to Earth and across Los Angeles, then into Hell. Skipping through a few maps, I larked about in toxic waste, lead an AI squad through demon-infested city streets, fought the biggest dang Cyberdemon I’ve ever seen, and generally had a gay old time.
The Hell on Earth Starter Pack’s levels are designed for Brutal Doom’s different play and bring a new continuous story, with levels starting where the last left off and adding a few voice-overs and all that. Yeah, it was pretty cool to blast through the streets of LA backed by marines and the occasional tank, and I’ll return to see the whole thing once I’ve wrapped up work. The story’s thirty levels long, introducing several new bosses and whatnot, then those other two are, in classic Doom tradition, bonus Nazi levels. Check out some of the flashy set pieces and battles in this trailer:
You can download the Starter Pack over here. It can run standalone without Doom at all, but will be a bit wonky and not look as nice. I’d really recommend copying the Doom2.wad file from your Doom 2 installation into Brutal Doom’s directory to get the original and proper art.
Having been delayed a bit, the map pack finally arrived last week alongside a new year and a new version of Brutal Doom. V20b brings big performance improvements, a rebalancing, more death animations, and other stuff. If you’ve already got Brutal Doom and simply want the update, not the new maps, that’s here.

Hello.
For starters, here is the Brutal Doom installation guide. If you can't progress from this one, I will try to further help you.

Grargar: Hello.
For starters, here is the Brutal Doom installation guide. If you can't progress from this one, I will try to further help you. I think I've got it properly working now, I had to go with zandronum instead of GZDoom. It definitely a lot of fun, especially since I've never played doom before. But it still won't let me save my progress. Every time I try, it says 'Unable to create savegame (whatever I put).' Every time I exit the game an error message pops up saying something about 'Zandronum cannot be configured, access denied.'
It also won't save my control settings. That's pretty annoying.

You'll need 3 things:
An Engine such as GZDoom
The Brutal Doom pk3 file
A .WAD file from Doom 1, Doom 2, or Final Doom
First install any engine such as GZDoom. You can find it here.
Next install the Brutal Doom mod, found here, into the same folder as GZDoom.
Last you will need the .WAD file from the Doom series (Does not work with Doom 3). Go into the Doom 2 folder and copy the .WAD file to the GZDoom folder.
There are many ways to launch Brutal Doom. One way is to drag the brutaldoom.pk3 file onto the gzdoom.exe file to launch it. Make sure the WAD file is in the same folder as gzdoom.

Sounds like that might be an administrator issue from installing in a protected folder such as Program Files, you could try running it as an admin or installing elsewhere.

You can't make it work with GZDoom? What exactly is the problem with it?

Grargar: You can't make it work with GZDoom? What exactly is the problem with it? There was no sound at all. The FAQ said to try Zandronum if that happened, and now it's mostly working.

Seems like someone had the same problem as you. If you still can't get it to play in GZDoom, then I will also recommend what Smannesman said about the save issue; you should try moving the Brutal Doom/Zandronum folder outside the Program Files.

Well, I installed it outside of Program Files and everything seems to work now. Thanks everyone.
