Problems with making episodes in Doom 2

[BucketHoodie]

So Im making a megawad called 20000 Miles into hell and I'm trying to make multiple episodes in Doom 2, but I'm getting problems as when I play through the first level of the first episode and try to go to the second, it instead took me to Doom 2's ending screen (with the enemy showcase). I would like to know what I need to fix in my MAPINFO (where I made the episodes).

Code: Select all

// Episode 1: Decent into madness
episode E1M1
{
name = "Decent into Madness"
}

It'd be easier to diagnose the problem you're having if you posted your MAPINFO code.

...... it instead took me to Doom 2's ending screen (with the enemy showcase). I would like to know what I need to fix in my MAPINFO (where I made the episodes).

We would like to know as well.

But, without knowing what you have done in the MAPINFO lump so far, it will be a mystery to all of us.

Sorry, I should have posted it prior, ill post it here and ill edit the original post later

// Episode 1: Decent into madness
episode E1M1
{
name = "Decent into Madness"
}

Such a small snippet of the code still doesn't say enough about the problem.

Post your entire MAPINFO.

Besides, I actually found a fix to it by making adding a map definition and adding a "Next" property and set it to the next level. Sorry for the inconvenience. Have a nice day/night

Your using E1M1 for Doom2.
Doom 2 does not use this map naming structure.

Solution:

• a) use correct naming convention MAP01, MAP02, Map03 Map## - MAP99
• b) use custom MAPINFO:

Example: A correct implementation of the Master Levels Map Order.
