I have many hours in doom, but mostly just replaying doom 1 and 2 over again with different gameplay mods. I'm a big fan of DTWID and D2TWID.

I don't know. All my suggestions are apparently gzdoom based games which don't count or something. So is a wad JUST a mappack or is it allowed to change other things as well? Or does changing more then a custom map make it a total conversion assuming that's still a phrase that's used.

the undisputed GOAT, along with Afterglow
though high noon drifter is a personal favorite and pirate doom will always occupy a special place in my heart

They are most commonly used to reference map packs. Now I don't know where the line between a map pack and total conversion lies if you only change textures and don't change the gameplay but gzdoom-based games are definitely in the total conversion category

WAD is specifically the file format so you could argue anything that requires a pk3 is discounted.
But modern WADs often incorporate patches and such to do simple enemy replacements. Theres also a bunch of mapping formats supported by the usual engines that while in the spirit of doom, greatly increase what you can do with it even just using regular wad files.
Theres also GZDOOM maps that just use the engine for nonuclidian shit or for the scripting or even just to support certain soundfiles but are otherwise vanilla doom.
So at the end of the day it's probably down more to the spirit of things. Personally I don't like having to fiddle with ZDOOM settings and binds and shit all the time so I stick to whatever runs on prBoom style sourceports.

literally stands for "Where's All the Data" so you can replace any media the game uses, but not engine features or mechanics.
