I think the answer is that certain stuff is just meant to be on the root directory, but I like to try and keep things neatly tucked away in specific folders if possible. So, here's my question: is there a folder where certain resources can go that normally work from the root directory inside a zip/pk3?
Specifically, I am trying to get the startup lumps for a Strife-style startup to work.
STARTUP0, STRTBOT, STRTLZ1, STRTLZ2, STRTPA1, STRTPB1, STRTPC1, STRTPD1
If these are in the root of the PK3, the startup works just fine. But I wanted to tuck them away neatly in a graphics folder or some such. However, that doesn't work. I tried the graphics, sprites and textures folder - nope. The only thing I have found that does work is using a filter folder:
filter/game-doom
and dumping them in the (effective) root of that folder.
Is that the only way to do this?
