That seems to have fixed it! The warnings are gone and the game runs fine using MBF, thanks!

During startup, the vanilla exe (ultimate doom) also warns about these, but it continues loading anyway. (not sure if anything could go wrong in game?) I can't use MBF though, because it quits when it finds these patches are missing. I would like to use MBF if possible, so if you can find the time to fix them, that would be great.

I discovered what I was doing wrong. I was trying to patch the regular Doom v1.9 exe (instead of Ultimate Doom) that's why it produced these errors.

Hi @Revae, did you already release the fix for the "R_GenerateLookup: Column without a patch in texture" issue? I couldn't find a new version, so I guess not. :) Is soon(tm) anywhere in the coming months, by any chance? That would be awesome. (I have another computer running DOS that I'd like to install REKKR on.) Another thing I could use some help with: I tried loading the rekkr.deh in the original dehacked 3.1 (also tried 3.0aSE) but I´m getting a bunch of errors like "Line 3965: Unmatchable text string". 11 errors in total. Shouldn't the deh file be compatible with the original dehacked? Edit 2: I only just learned that the Doom v1.9 shareware exe is identical to the registered one, and even the Doom II v1.9 one. That's interesting. I also discovered that Dehacked did continue loading the file, even with those errors. I just wanted to be sure I'm not missing anything crucial.

Hi! I'm running D4V on MBF 2.04 (maintenance release) using freedoom2.wad. It seems to be running, but I think there could still be an issue with the dehacked files not being skipped/loaded properly. I hope someone here can help, so I won't run into trouble later. I found that MBF doesn't have a -nodeh command line parameter, but it does load dehacked lumps automatically. There is a similar parameter -nodehwad, but afaik, that skips loading of all dehacked lumps, while -nodeh (when available) seems to skip dehacked lumps in IWADs only. Which dehacked lumps should be skipped by -nodeh? (I think the freedoom wads also have dehacked lumps, so you'd probably want to skip those) Which dehacked lumps should be loaded? For example, for episode 1, do any of btsx_e1a.wad btsx_e1b.wad D4V2.wad BTSX1D4V.wad have lumps that should be loaded? The "HOW TO PLAY ON OTHER PORTS" file only lists D4V2.deh, but would I need btsx1.deh as well when using -nodehwad on MBF 2.04?

I just tried running Doom 4 Vanilla v3.2.1 BTSX edition on MBF 2.04. This mod was made to run with DOOM2.WAD, uses a dehacked file and should also run with the original Doom 2 exe. I successfully ran it on MBF using the freedoom2.wad. I haven't actually played more than a couple of minutes using a couple of weapons and encountering some monsters, but all seems to be working. I'll try running REKKR with vanilla doom later, but I was actually looking for a way to run it without requiring the original game. Besides playing it for myself (it looks awesome) I intend to put it on some retro gaming PCs that I'm building and intend to sell. I also put a selection of freeware and shareware games on them. Note that I'm not doing this for profit, just for fun. I just added a bit to your tip jar as well. :-) As long as I don't lose too much money in the process, it's good entertainment. :-D

I tried to get REKKR to work on MBF Doom 2.04 (maintenance release), in DOSBox, but planning to run it on a real dos machine later. I didn't succeed however. The IWAD version gives me the error "IWAD tag not present: rekkrsa.wad". I tried using the PWAD version in combination with freedoom1.wad (from freedoom-0.12.1), but that gives me the following errors: R_GenerateLookup: Column without a patch in texture BLODGR1 R_GenerateLookup: Column without a patch in texture BLODGR4 R_GenerateLookup: Column without a patch in texture FIRELAV2 R_GenerateLookup: Column without a patch in texture FIRELAV3 R_GenerateLookup: Column without a patch in texture FIRELAVA I also tried BOOM 2.02, but it had the same issue. Is this an issue with the REKKR wads, or is there anything else I should try? If possible I'd like to get one of these two options to work.

Oke. Thanks for your replies. I shall look into Boom, MBF, SMMU for Doom/Doom II.

I have a 486DX2 (67Mhz) that I'm turning into an old-games computer. I have Doom/Doom II/Heretic and Hexen and I would very much like to put them on that computer. Which sourceport(s) would be the best choice? I don't care much for new level-designer features or even multiplay, since the computer is not connected to a network. I'm looking for speed, standard features (running the original games with sound, no graphical bugs etc, higher resolution/detail if the computer can handle it ;-)) and also compatibility (run several games with one source port if possible) Who can advise me? Thanks!
