How to load wolf 3d into gzdoom?

Post by Gamerwarrior117 »

Hey, i was wondering if there is way to load wolf3d into gzdoom? i know there is tc mod for Gzdoom, but how do i load that one in? any other mdos for wolf 3d to put into gzdoom that are out there?

Also, i know this not the place for Doom 3, but what does "error code #1625 system forbid policy" mean when after entering the cd key before installation?

Thank you.

You might need to run the Doom 3 installer as an administrator to get past the error you're getting.

Yes, but the author has real life and a job etc. And it's also kind of a one-man show, not enough people helping him. So updates are a bit slow.

Any time you get access denied or system policy errors, it's Windows Security attempting to protect your computer. Running as administrator confirms that you want to make the changes to your system that it wants to make - so yes, it can, and usually will work.

I really don't know. I've never used them. I only use ECWolf. But considering ECWolf borrows so much code from ZDoom, it does what I expect it to at the very least, and that's good enough for me.
