Source port forum is very inactive. I post legacy questions here.

I just downloaded the newest legacy version and I have a few questions...

1. When I try to run from the launcher (to use gl or something) it says that my doom3.wad(the one that legacy uses) is version 0.00 and I need version 1.32(I think that's the one). It also says to use the doom3.wad coming from the same zip as the launcher. Problem is... I AM using the one that came from the same zip as the launcher.

2. I've been playing doom1 mostly, and then went back to doom2 w/ legacy, and every time i hit a storyline break, i lost all weapons and ammo. Does this happen in vanilla doom2? I don't remember it like that.

No, I would definitely call that a f*ck-up.

I don't know, I d/led the 1.23 Legacy and it's working fine for me.

Ok then, would it be possible to use a legacy savegame on vanilla doom? I would like to beat doom2 for the millionth time without beating about 20 lvls again. I could get thru dead simple easy starting w/ pistol, the first city level (downtown?) i managed, but it starts to become annoying around nirvana.

This problem's been around in the launcher a lot. You'll need to include doom3.wad as one of the WADs to add. Stupid bug.

Known bug. They're supposed to be working on it, if they haven't already fixed it.

No, I mean in the place where you'd specify PWADs.

After Legacy 1.31, I won't touch it anymore, each version just gets slower and slower...I personally like 1.28 the best...ran just fine, almost as fast as EDGE does. Pity.

One of the errors that I noticed while playing Doom Legacy is that ceiling flats in sectors adjacent to a sector with a sky flat are visible. There is also a HOM in Nirvana.
