EndHack Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) I got PrBoom+ mostly following a tutorial on youtube for editing dooms source code and it installed with three programs executables shortcuts with commands? or something im not exactly sure im new to linux so one is normal PrBoom+ and the others are PrBoom+ starting with freedoom or freedoom2 they seem to work fine but I have been building my own PrBoom+ (mostly following the video) but it doesn't have music and it crashes whenever I go into the options menu and I've got no idea why so far the biggest thing I've changed is the super shotgun and normal shotguns editor numbers which has worked mostly fine (I can't actually select it but I can pick it up off the ground and use it until I select a different weapon) as long as I include a pwad with the ssg's assets so if anyone has any idea whats happening or something I would like to hear your advice Edited May 7, 2020 by EndHack : link was broken 0 Share this post Link to post
fabian Posted May 8, 2020 Could you please post what is printed to the terminal when the game crashes? Also, please use punctuation! It's a pain to read through your post. 0 Share this post Link to post

Edit: turns out the help me page also doesn't work, not that that's very important. W_GetNumForName: PRBOOM not found Edited May 8, 2020 by EndHack 0 Share this post Link to post
EndHack Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) So I was going to add -file PrBoom-plus.wad (with its location and everything) but I wanted to quick start up PrBoom, just to make sure I had typed out the right command, once it had started up the menu worked fine, but the only thing I can think of that I changed is beforehand I played around with the unedited PrBoom that I didn’t build, and while doing that I changed the settings in it, which may have somehow effected the one I’m building. 0 Share this post Link to post
EndHack Posted May 10, 2020 So turns out I was an idiot and typed prboom-plus instead of ./src/prboom-plus and I was just using the non-modified one, also I tried just adding "-file (file path)prboom-plus.wad" and that didn't work 0 Share this post Link to post
