Re: The "How do I..." Thread

I am playing the super single player Pwad Back to Saturn X E2: Tower in the Fountain of Sparks. Very excellent wad, but the single barrel shotgun fires excruciatingly slow. Is there a quick and dirty way using Slade or another editor I can edit the shotgun characteristics for this Pwad only to ...

Re: Loading the Automap on Startup

It'll be in [Doom.Bindings], as m=<whatever the action is>. Do note that ZDoom doesn't write to any other config. Found it in [Doom.Bindings], m=am_cheat 2. I don't come on here too much, but when I do, you guys always help me out. http://comancheclub.com/public/style_emoticons/default/bowdown.gif ...

Re: Loading the Automap on Startup

I searched the ini file and it's not there. But it does show in the [Doom.DoubleBindings] section the text m=daedalus_msgspeed. So the "m" key is binded to two actions? The automap feature works fine using the m key now.

Re: Loading the Automap on Startup

Great - it works. Thanks very much.

I eyeballed the .ini file and it did not get modified by typing this into the console. Which file got modified?

Re: Loading the Automap on Startup

Where do I enter bind m "am_cheat 2"? In the config.ini file?

I'm confused. I've set up key bindings in this file before, but nothing happens when I enter bind m "am_cheat 2" in the file.

Thanks for the help........

Loading the Automap on Startup

How can I load "idbeholda" to automatically load the automap when starting a game so I don't have to type it in the command line. Can I bind it to a single key, like the "m" key, by modifying the configuration settings file? I've been trying with no success. I'm using Zdoom ver. 2.7.1 Thanks; Don

Re: Zdoom 2.5.0 Crashing-

You need a version beyond the official 2.5.0 build, which is almost 2 years old. http://svn.drdteam.org has more recent builds and is updated regularly. Thanks very much, I was not aware there were more current versions of Zdoom out there. But these are all beta versions, not official, and just ...

Zdoom 2.5.0 Crashing-

When I try to run the new pwad called Dungeo13.wad by Anthony Vattimo. In the pwad description the author states it needs "ZDoom 2.5.0 at least r(2911). I promptly downloaded the latest version of 2.5.0 from this site, and the pwad still has a fatal error. Here's a pic of the error message: http ...

Re: WinTex Substitute for Windows 7

Notice, if you will, that he said he's been using WinTex "for years" - perhaps even before XWE became the de facto standard. So it could very well have been the best WAD editor of the time, when he started using it. It certainly was for me, back in 2000, before XWE matured enough to be usable. This ...

Re: WinTex Substitute for Windows 7

Downloaded and installed. It's a lot different than WinTex, has a lot more features than what I need, but I'll figure it out. Thanks Enjay.

WinTex Substitute for Windows 7

Mother board smoked, had to get a new PC, Windows 7 OS. I've been using WinTex for years for simple pwad/iwad editing; replacing sprites, sounds, modifying graphics, basic stuff. Of course WinTex won't run on Win 7 as well as a lot of my other favorite programs. What's a good simple (I stress simple ...

Re: Command line parameter question

Is that all you wanted to do? I should have read the first post more closely. Have you tried just hitting the F11 button? It changes the gamma setting and it gets remembered in the ini. Yes, I know about the gamma setting Enjay. It's the R_Visibility cvar I'm changing up and down with the .cfg file ...

Command line parameter question

I mostly use the ZDL loader for gameplay. I have a .cfg file that I use for increasing the brightness assigned to a hotkey. Is there a command line parameter I can use to automatically load this .cfg file on startup similar to say the -deh parameter? Thanks all!
