sevenx Posted January 14, 2011 Hi,How I can merge my new WAD with Zdoom ? I tell about the finish version with my WAD. For example, Hexen is modification and to start the Hexen I do not have to connect a WAD to Hexen... I want to create a modification like Hexen,with merge WAD,without the need to connect WAD. Understand me ? Can I merge my WAD with Zdoom? 0 Share this post Link to post

sevenx Posted January 15, 2011 So, for example, NOW if i want to enter in Zdoom , i need connect DOOM2 or DOOM to ZDoom , and then game run. And i want to ask you. Can you tell me how i can join WAD and ZDoom in a single file ? Because I want to run Doom game and see only my map. I want to join WAD with Zdoom in one file. Understand now ? If yes,please answer... 0 Share this post Link to post

Sure there is. Create an IWAD with all custom resources but which meets the recognition criteria for one of the existing commercial IWADs. Voila, instant stand-alone game. 0 Share this post Link to post

Gez Posted January 15, 2011 Delete all other IWADs. Or more seriously, select your IWAD and check the "don't ask me this again" box. From then on, you won't see any other choice.

That's not what I meant and you know it. :p 0 Share this post Link to post

Maes Posted January 15, 2011 Ouch, seems you gave him bad advice :-/ Doom.exe is the original DOS executable, and it won't run without at least one of DOOM.WAD/DOOM2.WAD/TNT.WAD/DOOM1.WAD/PLUTONIA.WAD in the same directory. I take that you simply want to run a level that you made? The full procedure is to launch the executable with -file e.g. doom.exe -file your_level.wad With SOME source ports such as ZDoom you can drag & drop the file ON the zdoom.exe, but perhaps what you're really looking for is a frontend/launcher that does these things in a clearer way. There are several, search this forum for "zdl", "cdl", "doom launcher" etc. There's no need to modify or "merge" any of your IWADs as you've probably been doing so far. 0 Share this post Link to post

Maes Posted January 15, 2011 Well cut him some slack, as he's obviously not a native English speaker, and he may well be running the whole thing through a translator just to get by. From the grammar forms used I'm led to think he's Chinese (am I correct?) but sevenx, you really need to try and be a bit clearer here, we're all having a hard time following you. 0 Share this post Link to post
