Perhaps I should somehow turn the files into an iso, but i have no idea how to do that, but will find out. If this doesnt work, then I officially give up. Thanks alot for the help and effort

Ive recently been into finding information about obscure addon packs such as "Perdition's gate" for doom 2. And then I found out about H!Zone for Heretic and Hexen. Ive actually found the full thing itself, and I dont know exactly how I would go about playing this on zdoom or any modern scource port. There are alot of useless files (theyre useless because this thing, in addition to having 12 new episodes with new textures and enemies, has outdated dos based front ends and stuff), but i noticed a folder with the files for all of the episodes to play. There are wads called "sprites" "textures" "flats", all of the individual episodes, and this weird file called 'database.d", which isnt a wad. I tried dragging and dropping them all at the same time into zdoom. The main game actually works, but there are missing textures and the new objects and enemies are missing too. I know they're missing because some walls and floors have that checker pattern, and the console says "unknown textre snofloor" for instance. I was hoping someone could help me on this....

The problem is that, pathetically enough, I dont really know HOW to mount it exactly. I go into dbgl and into mounting, but im completely unsure as to how to get it to work as if its a cd. Do I Specifically mount cdhelper or the whole h!zone folder? No matter what I do nothing at all seems to work in dbgl or dfend

I think the link is broken, since it leads to one of those weird sites that just has a bunch of ads and pictures... And I cant get it to work with legacy either. I still dont get exactly how to mount the H!Zone folder/zip and make it work right. What should I enter under the "mounting" tab in dbgl?

sorry for the misunderstanding but i wasnt really talking about how to get D!Zone to work, since I dont have it. I was referring to H!zone still, but thanks for the prompt reply and the reply and the info anyway But is there any specific way to correctly mount the H!Zone start.bat in dosbox without a cd?

Using the frontend you recommended didnt help, sadly. However, it may just be a matter of whether not im doing it right. I have to confess though: I dont have the actual CD: just the files inside it. Perhaps thats a factor. Ive also placed the files in many locations. Didnt help. And on an unrelated note, is D!Zone gold any good?

Its already named heretic.wad, and ive tryed both the old and new versions of heretic and it doesnt work. The file paths are correct, and I altered nothing when I installed both versions of heretic. Nothing is changing the fact that it stalls at 1% I have a question though. I have this frontend called dfend version 3, and there is an area where you can change mounting and stuff. In order for the cdhelper/start.bat things to work as if i had the cd, is configuration correct: Mount type: CDROM Select Drive/CDROM/Image or Floppy to mount: C:\ Drive label :(I left this blank) Mounted drive letter: C

Well the installer actually works, except that during installation, it hangs up at 1% done, which is odd, and therefore nothing is installed

I actually finally have gotten the installer thing to work! I was just stupid enough not to specify a few things in the frontend for dosbox that I had about mounting stuff. But there is a new problem. I have Heretic: Shadow of the serpent riders installed in C:\Heretic, but it says I dont. Maybe this thing only accepts the 3 episode version of heretic (which I dont have)? BTW, thank you very much for the help. I appreciate it alot

I already have this other frontend which has the same functions and it doesnt work either. I tried wadmerge, but for some reason, it wont detect whats in the textures, sprites, and flats wads . I know this because when I open the wad in xwe I only see maps, and when I press start in wad merge, i notice it says, for instance "loading textures.....0 texture", even though I specifically specified to merge the EPI-01.wad with the texture, sprite, and flat mods. What should i use as the iwad? Heretic?

inside of the file H!Zone is the start.bat and cdhelper, plus the word document for cd helper, which is just a readme for H!Zone. Also there are these 2 exe's call INTRO and INTRO 2, and also these files called "WIZIN.FLI" and WIZOUT.FLI. There is a folder called H!Zone where these files are. When you open the folder, then you see alot of files most of them for those obsolete frontends. There is this folder called "CUSTOM". Inside that folder there is a folder called HERETIC. Inside that are these files: EPI-01.wad all the way to EPI-12.wad. Then in that same folder are the wads "TEXTURES", "SPRITES" and "FLATS". There is also this file called "DATABASE.D!". There is this weird folder called T, where there are E3M1-E3M9 wads. All of the episodes replace episode 3, and I know that. I do no use all the EPI wads at the same time

I would use vanilla, but there are some serious problems. First off, there doesnt appear to be a "setup" or "install" file for this. I did find that there are files called "cdhelper" and "start.bat", which seem to be the installers. The problem is that, although they work,even in dosbox, they keep saying "runtime error in" followed by some random number.

ok i have tried running a modifacation of doom 2 called Die Fuhrer Die (part of the wolfendoom series thing) It supposed to have different textures, levels and enemies. However, i load up doom 2 (actaually i use freedoom but it has doom 2 levels)and die.wad and die.deh, but nothing changed except i see the dogs from wolfenstein 3d!. Does anyone know how to run the thing properly?

ok this is getting weird i load it up and there and all the wolfenstein textures and enemies are there, but the level is really wierd. I also tried that treasure hunter thing (another mod, same series), and all i get is different enemies. Why couldnt the creator just release seperate .exe's of his mods? i have a question. Do i have to use the real doom 2 or can i use freedoom? Cuz i dont have the real doom. Id buy it but i cant find it or doom collectors edition anywhere

yipee skippee i got it working!! thanks for your generous help!!

alright i drag and dropped die.wad and die.deh at the same time on zdoom, but it said could not find main wadfile. I have doom2.wad and doom.wad in same folder as zdoom

i tried using prboom, boom, zdoom, and mbf. I cant do this commcand line stuff becasue when i click on main mbf or boom files, i see a black screen for less then a second and then it dissapears. when i tried zdoom and prboom i tried dragging die.wad and the thing i described started. I dont know how to use the deh file. I try using dehacked and the black screen appears the disappears. (i have windows XP if thats a problem)

so could someone pleas tell me what to do? Im kinda new to this stuff i seriously need a bit of help, i read all the directions i could find and it doesnt work

http://www.doomworld.com/wolfendoom/index2.html thats the website with all the downloads and info. Die Fuhreer die is the one i tried
