end of episodes

In my DOOM1 level for ZDOOM, to end the game on E1M8, I used "next Endgame 1" in my MAPINFO lump. The game ends, and a text screen displays with no message in it. Using WhackEd, what string should I replace to show my own message.

Since you are mapping for zdoom and are already using the MAPINFO lump, why would you be using Whacked for text messages. Put them in your MAPINFO lump.

Use the MAPINFO lump that is in HERIAN2 for example as a guide or check here ...

What do I put in my MAPINFO lump? I've been to that page before and just don't know what to use for Endgame1. Would it be a clusterdef?

Along with the ZDoom wiki , download this ...

You do need to use clusterdef.

Here is an extract from the text file above ...

clusterdef 1
flat FLOOR4_8
music D_VICTOR
exittext "Once you beat the big badasses and
clean out the moon base you're supposed
to win, aren't you? Aren't you? Where's
your fat reward and ticket home? What
the hell is this? It's not supposed to
end this way!

It stinks like rotten meat, but looks
like the lost Deimos base. Looks like
you're stuck on The Shores of Hell.
The only way out is through.

To continue the DOOM experience, play
The Shores of Hell and its amazing
sequel, Inferno!"


If this doesn't help maybe someone can explain this better than me.
