ZDoom-based wad, won't work in this remaster.
Download GZDoom or something.

[NT]

Use GZdoom, noobie.

Why its in mod section tho

[Seamus]

Because stupid people keep uploading incompatible wads.

The mod section is mostly community uploads, and it is comically unmoderated; at least at this moment in time.
I'd recommend sticking to the featured mods list; which are manually curated by the devs, or using the Google Drive link linked in the below thread for a list of mods that are sure to work with the remaster (make sure to pay attention to the uploader):

My biggest grievance right now is certain mods have borked saves on console, so even if I wanna save and take a break and stop, I can’t.

It's designed for GZDoom and uses a bunch of GZDoom specific advanced features so it won't work properly with this port that's PrBoom based

It's in the mod database because anyone can upload anything and as of now Nightdive doesn't have any moderation going through and making sure everything works

More accurate to say that it's Boom-compatible (or MBF-compatible, or MBF21-compatible)*, as no actual code is used from PrBoom; features were implemented through clean room reimplementation. Indeed, this port is derived from the Nerve Software family like BFG Edition and the Unity port, and Rum and Raisin Doom which this port sources code from is derived from Chocolate Doom.

*Putting aside that due to that aforementioned clean room approach, the Boom/MBF/MBF21 compatibility has some issues and isn't perfect.

I could swear I read somewhere they used some open-source code to implement the PrBoom compatibility rather than completely emulating it

I think that was the clean room reimplementation I mentioned, apparently they licensed it from the guy who does Rum and Raisin Doom.

Using someone else's clean room reverse-engineering is a really weird shortcut, I wonder if Bethesda gave them way to short a deadline to have the remaster launched

I have seen some developer comments that to me seemed to indicate there may've been a deadline to get this out for QuakeCon, but that's purely my interpretation of a small group of forum posts with no explicit statement of such.

Since it's a pk3 under GZDoom it kinda breaks the immersion about the whole "floors over floors cannot work in Doom" while it's not a simple wad under vanilla Doom.
