Welcome to the ZDoom Forums!

thanks Blzut3 it works
but i can't play brutalDoomv018a when i try to play it. It boges down and quit's to the decktop even if i try to play it with other wad files

P.S
can you play brutalDoomv018a in softwear mode

I've changed the build process slightly. Try this build.

I tryed just loading the Doom2.wad by it self but ZDoom still go's unresponsive

It shouldn't matter, but since we have a problem specific to your setup: If you remove the other iwads and just leave doom2.wad, does it work?

yes i do have multiple iwads but that shouldn't mater should it

Do you have multiple iwads or just doom2.wad? It looks like it's hanging waiting for an iwad selection (which should show a dialog).

I typed this in "/Applications/ZDoom.app/Contents/MacOS/zdoom" but nothing came up. all i get is this when i open Zdoom with Doom2.wad

So did you do what I said in the first part of my post?

Yes i have a powerpc

With doom2.wad in that Application Support folder, open the terminal application and type (assuming ZDoom.app was installed to the system Applications folder): And press enter. This may indicate what's causing the problem. Also, am I correct that since you're using OS X 10.4 you have a PowerPC?

I've tryed placing the Doom2.wad in the same folder as ZDoom and I get this warning to put the Wad file in the directory "Path=/Users/noel/Library/Application Support/ZDoom" but it still go's unresponseve I'm running Mac OS X 10.4

Regardless, works for me., it's still 'don't do that!', though.

We need more info to see what is wrong.

Using the term "app" doesn't help to specify what operating system you're using. It sounds like it could be Windows, Mac or Linux.

Anyways, that's more along the lines of "Don't Do That", since I'm sure ZDoom is still looking for an IWAD, and it's treating Doom2.wad as a PWAD. Try placing the IWADs in the same directly as ZDoom and just launch ZDoom normally (no click and dragging)?
