You know, if you want to play ZDoom multiplayer, go get on a ZDoom IRC channel.

zdoom -host 2 -deathmatch 1 -warp 01
If you wanna play Cooperative you just change deathmatch for cooperative, right?

Cooperative is automatically chosen as the game mode if -deathmatch isn't specified. There is no -cooperative, so what you have above is correct. It would also be good to add a -skill parameter (as I believe it defaults to 3). There are further options like +dmflags, +compatflags, and -record, along with many other parameters, but the bare minimum is just fine.

If you're using DOS, then type:

Code: Select all

cd C:\ZDoom

and replace C:\ZDoom with your ZDoom directory.

Then replace zdoom with zdoom.exe, and put your commands after that.

And if I'm not using DOS?

EDIT: What was previously at this post had nothing to do with it.

As I understand it, you're attempting to use the console as a command line, which cannot be done. You must use something like Run in the start menu or a launcher like ZDL to specify a command line which looks like this:

C:\<path to zdoom directory>\zdoom.exe <parameters>

If you use a launcher, there shouldn't be a need to start with C:\zdoom.exe, either.
