Pelle1986 Posted February 4, 2018 I am having problems when I make slopes/bridges. Making slopes and bridges separatly works fine, but when I make a bridge THAT slopes it becomes invisible while in game. I am using GzDoomBuilder (bugfix). /Per 0 Share this post Link to post

Should I do this while in the game or in GZDoomBuilder? I tried both but nothing happened. 0 Share this post Link to post
0 scifista42 Posted February 4, 2018 (edited) In the game (assuming you play in GZDoom or Zandronum), and if it's not working for you, go to "Options -> Customize Controls -> Other -> Open Console" and see which key it's actually binded to or rebind it to whatever key you want. 0 Share this post Link to post

To see the slopes you have to you use the OpenGL hardware renderer, which means you need to start GZDOOM. If you just have DOOM2, then move DOOM2.WAD into the GZDOOM folder and GZDOOM will start right way, without displaying the selection window.
