.bat File Placement For GZDoom?

[A Nobody]

Where do these files go? Do I put them in configurations?

[rehelekretep]

eh? are you talking about .bat files youve created or found in .zips with wads?

[baja blast rd.]

Batch files are command line scripts. Back in the day, wads were run in DOS from the command line. Batch files could be included as a convenience if a wad split resources into multiple files. Instead of typing 'doom2 -file hellheck.wad hhres.wad hhmusic.wad -deh nazicyb.deh' into the command line every time to play, you could simply type 'hellheck' to run a hellheck.bat that did all of that. 

So you can ignore them -- they won't do anything unmodified anyway -- and run multi-file wads the way you normally do.

Really?

yup @rdwpa is correct. just ignore/delete them. it wont harm anything with your playing the wads.

Thanks for the information. :)

I still use bat files though, for loading multiple files at once in the order I want. I'm too old school for mod loaders when Windows has a built in mod loader utility.

Lol, here I am, like 10 years older than you and living in the now ;p

 

I need to show you how to set up some Skyrim mods, I don't think you'll have a good time not using Mod Organizer.
