Adding new objects with DECORATE.

[bejiitas_wrath]

I am using this code in a UMDF Doom 2 map to try and add new trees, but they are not available in Ultimate Doom builder.

 

ACTOR PineTree 8400
{
  Radius 32
  Height 108
  ProjectilePassHeight -16
  +SOLID
  States
  {
  Spawn:
    TRENA A -1
    Stop
  }
}

ACTOR PineSTree 8500
{
  Radius 32
  Height 108
  ProjectilePassHeight -16
  +SOLID
  States
  {
  Spawn:
    TRENB A -1
    Stop
  }
}

ACTOR PineSTree 8600
{
  Radius 32
  Height 108
  ProjectilePassHeight -16
  +SOLID
  States
  {
  Spawn:
    BRPLA A -1
    Stop
  }
}

Is there something I am missing? I want to add all new items and have no inheritance. Thanks.

Is the code in a text file called "DECORATE", in a wad or pk3 that your map is told to load?

Also, even if the game is actually loading your code for the new trees, without a custom-defined category-

 

"

Actor DM12 : DeadMarine 20115
//$Category Gore-Civilians

"

 

-the editor will put it at the bottom of the 'edit thing' menu in a category called "user-defined".

is this not working because I have a ZSCRIPT file as well. Is that interfering with the DECORATE lump? I still can not get this working. I installed the latest Ultimate Doom Builder and still nothing.

Zscript and decorate can coexist together. We cannot tell you anything without seeing the file.

No, it wont. You're defining  new category, so it will end up in a directory named the same as the category. It would go into 'user-defined' if you dont define the category.

That's what he said, actually.

What map format are you using? IIRC, UDB skips DECORATE and ZScript if you use a map configuration that's not specifically for GZDoom.

Here is the file. TNT.WAD required. This is UMDF format.

See if you can find the problem. No matter what I do, Ultimate Doom Builder and Gzdoom Builder will not show my DECORATE items.
