Hiya.
Getting the 1.9 patch is always a good thing. :)
You *do not* have to have WA in the same dir as DOOM2. When you run WA for the first time it should have asked for you to pick a wcf ("wadauthor configuration file")...and I assume you choose DOOM2. Then it should have popped up something asking for the location of the DOOM2 iwad file. Clicking on the "Browse" you should have found your DOOM2 dir and then clicked on the DOOM2.wad (ex: "C:\Games\DOOM2"). Then, and only then, will WA allow you to create a map; you can't create a map if it doesn't know where to look for the things/flats/textures/etc. (re: the doom2.wad file), so I'm pretty damn sure you've gotten this far. ;)
Now, you've created a map. Preferably with 2 or more sectors (the BSP program in WA, and maybe others, doesn't really handle single-sector wads well). Now your problem. You are getting an error of it not being able to run, right? What you probably have to do is put the following lines into your wadauthor.ini file (find it in whatever dir you put wadauthor into; ex: "C:\WadAuthor"):
[DEBUG]
NoWARun=1
Save the changes. Now you should be able to run your map from whithin WA with no problems.
