ZDoom

If you're referring to the download itself...I hope Sourceforge fixes its stuff.
If the program downloads correctly, well, it would be rather helpful to get the version you're downloading and the OS you're using, considering what you seem to describe, a picture would be useful.

@Zhs2 I'll look into that bug for version 2. The Doom complete pk3 is not the same as Smooshed? Version 2 kinda supports smooshed. @NightFright Doomie launcher probably uses a database, if someone's willing to actually capture it, I might be willing to implement it, we would need to work out the ...

I mistakenly uploaded a package with the wrong zde.pk3 for the fixed beta, it has been updated with the proper one, along with the stand-alone zde.pk3 in the ZDE download repository, this new zde.pk3 includes the newest versions of The Adventures of Square.

I just uploaded a new beta for the old series that fixes a nasty segmentation violation when identifying PK3 files. No new versions are included in zde.pk3, it was just a quick, dirty fix.

Edit: it's done.

The flashlight "thingie" is a browse button...check the hover hints.
As for External programs, those are programs to be ran before starting ZDoom itself, like external MIDI synths and such. Check the manual.

@Hellser MS-DOS 3.3 Compatible, actually
@Graf I still write software that looks like that from time to time (and not for April Fools )

For march seriousness...a real pic of what will be ZDE 2.

Quick update: I reworked the interface to be a bit more in line with current computing trends (though mine is still kinda 3D, unlike the wonderful widgets in use now), you can check it out in the attachment, the rework has been barrels o' fun at most times and a gantlet at others, along with the new ...

@Dark Pulse: The Window is unresizable, but that was fixed in the available beta. @Marisa: Could be seen as a misplaced endif or a misplaced comma, either way, it's fixed in trunk. The pk3 is only ever checked in the same folder as the program itself, but patches are welcome (/usr/share maybe ...

AFAIK Sourceforge no longer does that. I've downloaded some of my own stuff (and a lot from others) from there and never had that problem. User interfaces are a matter of taste: some people love the Windows 10 stuff, I find it bland, hideous, blinding and clunky, same with the latest OS X design ...

@Someone64: Are you using the latest beta, if so, what is the error it spews, what is your OS, etc. etc. Probably important and related information: do your path names contain spaces? Thanks for your encouragement and use of ZDE guys :D, I'm glad you find it useful. A new version of the profile ...

Yes, it can parse pk3 and detect it, that's a good idea, thanks :) Sooo...work is underway for version 2 of ZDE, it will incorporate some of the stuff discussed before and support for some stuff mentioned above. In the mean time, a new beta for the 1 series is out. ZDE 2 will not support loading ...

I use GZDoom as well, but haven't been aware of recent developments :P, of course GZDoom's IWAD support matters, since it's the one in active development :) I've been aware ZDoom has been discontinued for a while, as you point out, but I didn't really think support for new game IWADs would be added ...

@Nightfright I'll ponder about SVE.WAD again...since I did consider it before and concluded it wasn't really an IWAD...but ZDoom supports it, so that sheds a different light (out of curiosity, what does it specifically do? I haven't bothered to try my veteran edition with ZDoom). As for Blade of ...

ZDE version? Operating system? File precedence is set in the Options menu, the little triangle is just a LED-like thingie :P (More like a nixie-tube). Though it could be used to control the option as well, I may get around to it :P What is the expected behaviour in the external file list that you're ...
