Getting tons of solid black and checkered textures on every wad I use. Its getting really annoying since I can't tell where the doors and switches are lol.

Are you playing WADs that require the Skulltag_data.pk3 file?

I used 2 different skulltag.pk3.s *not exactly sure what they were* But they did nothing. I found out one fix is to just use HD textures but I really don't want to do that because then nobody will join the games I make. If there is a chance I used the wrong skulltag.pk3's can you throw me some download links?

Oh BTW, I am playing on casual wads such as scyth 2 whispers of satan and alien vendetta.

Can you show us your entire configuration, and perhaps get an MD5 checksum of your Doom2.wad? (Hint, use this.)

Found the source of the real problem, it never said anything about putting the classic 4 wads in my zan folder lol. They really should put important info that should be common sense like that in the read me lmao.

https://zandronum.com/download wrote:Note: You need a copy of Doom (or Heretic, Hexen, or Strife) to play Zandronum. If you don't have the game, Steam sells it for about $5 - $15. Once you install it, Zandronum will find it automatically. Zandronum requires the latest version of the supported games.

You can have all IWADs in the Zandronum folder, BUT NOT in the Skins folder since Zan loads everything inside it.
