Edmap problems !! Please Help !!

[moneyman]

Ok i know there is not a lot of you you who dont use edmap .... but I grew up using that editor... I have recently have gotten a new computer and it seems like I cant get any of my old school doom stuff to work on it ... recently I have had some good luck and gotten most of my stuff to work (it has taken me a very long time) But My only last problem is edmap ... the editor itself works fine up until the point you have to save and build map once in the build screen it says "building map for doom2 .... reverting to doom 1, map 01 > e1m1, blah blah blah" ... I do not know why it is reverting to doom 1 for I dont even have that pwad on my new comp .... Please does anyone know what the heck is going on

Best regards,
MONEYMAN

Aww... I love Edmap. Best editor ever.

Try running the configuration program and make sure you have it configured for Doom 2.

Alas fraggle ... everything in the config file seems to be correct but still I have this problem ... any other ideas ?

Assuming that you've set everything up correctly (and you may want to doublecheck that again...), it might be a OS problem, since Edmap is a DOS program and you're probably running Windows? You didn't by any chance use a foldername that exceeds 8 characters..?

everything seems to look normal to me and none of my folders are over 8 characters .... at first the build would just fail probibly because it uses dos but I did some messing around (dont ask me what I did cuz I tried so many different things) and got the builder to half work It just keeps reverting to doom1 which is really weird and wont actually buld the map because its reverting
