Script Error

I'm new to doom. There's this script error and I have no Idea how to fix it.

Script error, "(wadname).wad:DECORATE" line (numbers):
Script error, "(wadname).wad:DECORATE" line (numbers):
Tried to define class 'Clip' more than twice in the same file.

Instead of naming the actor as Clip, name it to Clip2/Clip1/GunClip/etc. I can't say for sure, I'm only speculating here. You should post up the the decorate file if you want an definite answer.

Are you trying to load a mod with a wad that already has its own modding? Not everything is compatible.

For example, if a wad has modified monsters and you load Brutal Doom with it, things will probably get fucked up.

How do I rename it?

I'm loading these wads. They all had the same error.

Example

ACTOR Clip : Shotgun
{
// your code
}

Becomes

ACTOR Clip2 : Shotgun
{
// your code
}

How do I do that? Do I need some kind of program to rename it?

I got it. But now there's this error:

Script error, "(wadname).wad:DECORATE" line (numbers):
Expected ',', got 'l'.

How do I fix it?
 

Please copy paste the whole decorate file here. People can't help you with such vague reportings, unless we can inspect the decorate code outselves.

And what's with the (wadname) and (numbers)? Post the actual name and number please.

Sorry mate. Here's the decorate file. Also here's the download link to the wad.

SLADE... although you can write many Doom lumps in Notepad.

Having a lump structure as in mall_massacre.wad is unwieldy if you ever have to troubleshoot your map. Especially having 6 DECORATE lumps with numerous actors in each. See Gene-Tech as a perfect example how to structure a map with many resources
