I have the most recent version, and a lot of the time, when I run a Final Doom demo with it it goes out of sync.
Some Final DOOM demos were recorded using the executable for DOOM II: Hell on Earth. For those, you need to either force compatibility level 2 (-complevel 2) in the command line, or use DOOM II as the IWAD and load the Final DOOM IWAD as a PWAD. Most demos recorded this way say it in the text file, like this:
code: Recorded using Doom2 Version 1.9
Doom2 -File Plutonia.wad -PlayDemo with Version 1.9
For demos recorded with the Final DOOM executable (which means you play them normally in PrBoom) the text file usually says something like this:
code: Recorded using The Final Doom Version 1.9 !
Doom2 -PlayDemo with The Final Doom Version 1.9 - Only
A handful of demos might actually say the wrong thing in the text file, so if you experience a desynch in one of these while using the indicated mode, just try the other option.
And a bit of an unrelated question, but how do I access the Command Line?
It should appear as CMD in the Start menu, or you can type that in Run. You can then type cd plus the path to your PrBoom folder (cd d:\games\doom\prboom or whatever).
