No problem. We've all done it.

*is totally embarassed*

Sorry.

I suggest you find out what the "freeze" command in the console does before you argue your point further.

Go ahead, tell me I'm wrong.

That would give quite the opposite of the intended effect!

Never mind.

Prehaps you should rely on making monsters dormant or something

+freeze, as well as many other console commands need a map running to work. If not they are unable to do anything. If you start the game with ZDoom +summon DoomImp you won't get an imp as well.

Maybe because it is executed before the map is started, and therefore has no effect. What about +map map01 +freeze?

Thanks for making it clear now. But why does all other console commands work as command line parameters, but freeze doesn't? I'm not surprised that people got confused.

Well, I have no idea why Bio said it did before he tested it, but it seemed to be a plausible idea beforehand

I have no idea why Daniel said it did.

I understand that requesting something like this may sound somewhat stupid. Afterall, ZDoom is amazing already, and the amount of work put into it must be huge. I had no idea how great ZDoom really is, until now.

But...
I still can't make the "+freeze" work. It looks like the monsters are freezed only a very short time, then unfreezed. (Edit: Oh, this was an illusion. I got mistaken, because the still monsters seem to "jump" a bit when you begin a level you warped to.)

I still think it's absurd that you need all the console stuff to achieve this simple task.

That's what the console is there for. After all you are doing something non-standard so don't expect to get a different implementation any time soon.

Remember you can start from command line too. Console commands can be used with a "+" before them, just like this:

ZDoom.exe -warp 01 -skill 4 +god +freeze +give all

ZDoom
