darkblade Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) I used to play Doom and DOOM 2 using my IWADS, Zdoom launcher and also mods(wads). It used to work flawlessly. But since a month now it stopped working. I even tried deleting all the files and reinstalled everything it won't launch. Even thought I select the DOOM 2 or DOOM iwad, and gzdoom launcher for sourceport it just won't launch and says "PLEASE SELECT AN IWAD". How do I fix this?

Kappes Buur Posted December 1, 2018 (edited) Load the file into a hex editor and check if it still is an IWAD and not a PWAD. If it is an IWAD make sure of the path. 0 Share this post Link to post
dugan Posted January 11, 2019 Pull up the "About" dialog box to see where your settings file is. Delete or rename it. Set up ZDL again. 0 Share this post Link to post

This shouldn't matter; after all TNT.wad has a PWAD signature and still works just fine in vanilla and all ports. 0 Share this post Link to post

dugan Posted January 12, 2019 If we're talking about the version of ZDL I think we are, it doesn't care whether the file you've set as an IWAD is actually an IWAD. It just checks that you something in that field of the configuration file, which is probably called qzdl.ini. https://github.com/qbasicer/qzdl/blob/master/src/ZDLMainWindow.cpp#L386 0 Share this post Link to post
darkblade Posted January 15, 2019 I fixed the problem by simply copying the doom folder into another directory. 0 Share this post Link to post
