GZDoom Reading Doom Complete as Shareware

Forum rules
Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!

If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.

We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

This means you're using one of the forks or not all of the files required for detection are present.

Rename it to doom_complete.ipk3 (not .pk3) and then add a custom iwadinfo.txt file to it with the following contents:

Code: Select all

IWad
{
	Name = "DOOM: Complete: WadSmoosh"
	Autoname = "doom.id.wadsmoosh"
	Game = "Doom"
	Config = "Doom"
	Mapinfo = "mapinfo/doom2.txt"
	IWADName = "doom_complete.ipk3"
	Compatibility = "Shorttex"
	BannerColors = "a8 00 00", "a8 a8 a8"
	IgnoreTitlePatches = 1
	SupportWAD = "id24res.wad"
}

GZDoom Reading Doom Complete as Shareware

I usually use Doom_Complete (Wadsmoosh) to play doom on GZ, however I noticed as of late that GZDoom recognizes Doom_Complete as Doom Shareware despite me not having the shareware version of Doom.

This only started to happen recently. I checked game_support.pk3 to see if it was causing issues and everything seemed correct so i'm at a loss at the moment.

I am running gzdoom-x64-g4.14pre-120-gfb660fa3c by the way, if that helps.
