Ultimate Doom Builder / Cannot load properly BD things

[Guest]

Hi guys thank you in advance for your awesome support!

I am using Ultimate Doom Builder latest version and want to create a new map with Brutal Doom weapons , using DOOM2.wad and Brutaldoomv21.pk3 as resources:

I then get 247 errors:

besides duplicate names, in fact there are many items/weapons missing from the editor (i.e. flamethrower, demonrunerevenant) without an entry.

When testing the map, if I spawn them from the ingame console they are working!

Having tested Ultimate doom builder, Gzdoom2 and bugfix, the issue is the same.
I suppose it has to do with wrong loading those defs into the editor but I cannot identify how to solve this.

The structure of BDv21 leaves much to be desired and is not really user friendly.
Many of the actors have no DoomEd number, therefore, you have to add these identifiers manually,
ensuring that each actor has a unique number.

Using the flamethrower, for example:

Code: Select all

ACTOR Flamethrower2 : BrutalWeapon 20001<--- this number
{
    Height 20
    Weapon.SelectionOrder 600
    Weapon.AmmoUse 0
    Weapon.AmmoGive 600
    Weapon.AmmoType "Gas"
    Inventory.PickupSound "BFGREADY"
     +WEAPON.NOAUTOAIM
    Inventory.PickupMessage "You got the Flamethrower (Slot 9)"
    Tag "Flamethrower"
    VisibleToPlayerClass BDoomer, Doomer2, TacticalDoomer, Purist
    Inventory.ForbiddenTo ""
    States
    {
    } 

Then the flamethrower will show up in the editor Things Mode under User Defined

I'm using UDB R3720. I edited the AssaultShotgun in brutal doom using Slade and gave it the number, 350. When I load my map with the edited brutal doom pk3 file as a resource, I do not see the assaultshotgun listed in things mode.
ACTOR AssaultShotgun : BrutalWeapon 350
{
Weapon.AmmoUse1 0

what have I missed?

[Guest]

For the item to show up in the UDB things menu you should add the definitions for UDB/GZDB too. The sprite name is from the Spawn: section:

ACTOR AssaultShotgun : BrutalWeapon 350
{
//$Category "BrutalWeapons"
//$Sprite A12PA0
//$Title "AssaultShotgun"
//$Angled
Weapon.AmmoUse1 0

Looking at the ExplosiveSupershot.wad in slade, I added the following four $ definitions to the DECORATE file in my map wad file, but udb still is not listing the custom weapon in Things Mode:

Code: Select all

ACTOR ExplosiveSuperShotgun : Weapon 15000
{
Tag "Explosive Super Shotgun"
$Category "Weapon"
$Sprite EXPXA0
$Title "ExplosiveSuperShotgun"
$Angled
Weapon.SlotNumber 3
Weapon.AmmoUse 2
  Weapon.AmmoGive 8
  Weapon.AmmoType "ExpShell"
   Decal MiniScorch
  Inventory.PickupMessage "Picked up an explosive Super Shotgun"
Obituary "%o was blown and holed by an explosive Super Shotgun"

see below that I added the 4 $ definitions but when opening my map with brutal as a resource there is no custom weapon to choose. I must be missing some step to get a custom item to show in the Things Mode of UDB.

I got it figured out. I was opening my map with doom: doom2 config, once I opened the map with gzdoom: doom2 config the custom items showed up. thanks. thanks the for category tip.
