I have lots and lots of big highres textures and hopefully sprites, and I want to play safe, so if we can force ZDoom to ignore the original resource, then the better, or else I would have to make a new IWad.

I thought ZDoom could run Chex Quest. >_>

Why should it ignore resources you don't use? It's not that they interfere with anything.

Can we make new IWads to include our home made resources only, and exclude the original IWads resources that interfere with our resources?

For instance I have made a lot of textures and want to exclude the original textures from Doom2 IWad, How can I do it?

Is there a method to inform ZDoom to ignore the original Flats and Texture Patches and Sprites, or should I make a new IWad? Should I call it Doom2.wad, or can I call it any name?

I agree that it might be nifty to add PWAD sets to the startup menu, but the people who would benefit the most from this are unlikely to bother setting it up.

And all the IWADs that ZDoom can support already show up in the list, so there's nothing to add there.

How do you ad iwads to ZDL.

That looked like a feature request for ZDL to me...

seeing as the language lump will be in text maybe add it there somewhere

I love constants ...

ScanIWAD is a neat little routine. I was considering using a checksum/MD5 on some well chosen lumps, but it looks like simply checking for certain lumps is sufficient.

Because far too many (even not so stupid) people think that reading manuals is a waste of time. You won't be able to change this idiotic attitude.

Ugh... ZDL has always supported custom IWADS...

ZDL1.5: IWADS.ZDL: filename|lastmap|description\n
ZDL2 BETA1: ZDL.INI: under section "[IWADS]": "iwad=filename|description\n"

Why don't people read the readme or look at the examples?? :(
I'm tired of answering this question...


BTW: If anyone wants ZDL2 to come out any time soon, rate it high on my priority list...

You forgot DOOMU.WAD (for those of us who have registered and Ultimate Doom. BTW Bio you need to fix that in ZDL 2.

What about one like this

Code: Select all

AutoLoadName = "I Dunno: WTF"
ConfigName = Dunno.wad
DefaultFileName = Dunno.wad
ByteFileSize = 16777;11269;124271
SpecificLumps = $NULL
EDIT:
The way this works

AutoLoadName is the title for the select (eg. Doom 2: Hell on Earth)
ConfigName is like <insert configname here>-<insert username here>.ini
DefaultByteSize is for the size in bytes
SpecificLumps is for definining anything the scanner should look for
