WadSmoosh - merge all official id releases into one PK3 IWAD

[enderkevin13]

So what iwads can be "smooshed"?

[Jimmy]

It says so in a massive image in the OP. (And in the text.)

Okay, side question: Do I need to put all the master levels maps into a single pwad, or do I put all of the wad files into the merging folder?

[irukanjji]

you must have all master levels wads separated, like this:

here is my source_wads folder, with lost.wad

ATTACK.WAD
BLACKTWR.WAD
BLOODSEA.WAD
CANYON.WAD
CATWALK.WAD
COMBINE.WAD
DOOM.WAD
DOOM2.WAD
FISTULA.WAD
GARRISON.WAD
GERYON.WAD
LOST.wad
MANOR.WAD
MEPHISTO.WAD
MINOS.WAD
NERVE.WAD
NESSUS.WAD
PARADOX.WAD
PLUTONIA.WAD
SUBSPACE.WAD
SUBTERRA.WAD
TEETH.WAD
TNT.wad
TTRAP.WAD
VESPERAS.WAD
VIRGIL.WAD

What is LOST.WAD? I have everything but that one...

Probably the lost levels? Somebody in a recent earlier post even posted how you can add lost levels to the smoosh as it's bot officially supported yet.

Ah yeah, found it. Thanks... how I missed that I don't know.

[BFG]

this is brilliant, I actually had a dream that this thing existed long ago, thank you for making it! now imagine one with all the unofficial megawads like Kama, AVendetta etc all without texture conflicts that would be a dream indeed/

Here is i´ve compiled lost episodes for doom2, my version use all 4 episodes packed in one file (Lost.wad), i´ve inclued also a menudef, because the limitations of episode menu, just drag the content of this file in wadsmoosh, and overwrite if asked so.

Note: the wad is not included, if you wanted PM

So this technically worked for me, although the Cybermastermind was missing, and some of the sky textures and music files, as well as the ending text weren't working quite right for me. I fixed up everything as far as I can tell, and if you extract the files in the zip attachment I am linking directly to your WadSmoosh folder - it should work for you. The only caveat is that to read the special SKY lumps that these levels use, you will need to have a modified Lost Episodes wad that contains a P1 Start/End marker because I couldn't get it to recognize them without those markers. I can't link it here, but if you need help - let me know.

Here is my final version, this time with new music, sounds, new final boss sprites with decorate and a new titlepic, as usual overwrite all files in wadsmoosh folder.

For some reason, all the music for the master levels plays the same song from Doom 2 Map 01. I even recompiled doom_complete.pk3 with the latest fresh version of wadsmoosh and I still have the same problem...

Master Levels have been pieced into a single 21-level episode, using the PSN order. Inventory resets after each level, TEETH.WAD MAP31 secret exit leads to MAP32, correct skies for each WAD are extracted and used. Lots of D_RUNNIN given that most of the maps are in the MAP01 slot, but I didn't want to make any subjective creative decisions. You can change the MAPINFO files inside the PK3 if you have a preferred ordering, music list, etc.

Oh, I see. Thanks for the heads up.

Now that we seem to have a full commercial + lost episodes WadSmoosh... who wants to do the dirty work of making it add the FreeDoom Phase 1 and Phase 2 levels also? I have started looking into it, but am too lazy at the moment. I might get inspired at some point though.

naise, now i can marathon doom all at once.
