Took the liberty of putting your thread in a place where people are more likely to see and help.

MapInfo, specifically, defining maps in MapInfo.

You can look at the MapInfo in zdoom.pk3 (opens like a zip) for examples, though be sure not to edit the ones in zkoom.pk3 or things might not work correctly.

[marshallman]

So i need to make e picture or some like that to change level name ?

No, unless you specifically specify a graphic to use, define the map name in MAPINFO and Zdoom will generate the screen names for you.

[marshallman]

When i try to edit name it says that have a wrong thing in 55 line and nothing happend...

[Enjay]

Post your code.

[marshallman]

map <maplump> <nice name> i saw this from the http://zdoom.org/wiki/MAPINFO/Map_definition and try 100 ways to change the nice name but i won't it says unknown property at line 55

[Enjay]

Post your code. ie post what you have put in your MAPINFO lump.

[marshallman]

I put this : map <maplump> <nice name>

[Enjay]

Post your code!

ie post the exact text that you have in your MAPINFO lump. Do not just post general editing terms. We know the general editing terms. We need to see exactly what you have typed. MAPINFO works. Your code doesn't. Select the contents of your entire MAPINFO lump, copy it and paste it into the forum (preferably inside code tags). Do not leave anything out. Post exactly what you actually have in your MAPINFO lump - nothing more, nothing less.

Use code tags, please.

Thank you.

OK, first off, to change the name for map E1M1 (which is what you seem to be trying to do) try this:

Code: Select all

map E1M1 "My Cool Map Name"
{
   levelnum = 1
   next = "E1M2"
   secretnext = "E1M9"
   sky1 = "SKY1"
   cluster = 1
   par = 30
   music = "$MUSIC_E1M1"
}

Second, you seem to be using the entire doom MAPINFO from zdoom.pk3. You do not need to do that. You just need to include the stuff for the levels in your mod.

eg, just copy everything in the code tags that I just posted, paste it into a text file called MAPINFO.txt (you do not need to put anything else in the file) and then load the file in Zdoom and play E1M1. Check the automap - it will say "My Cool Map Name". Finish the map and the the intermission page will say "My Cool Map Name" too.

Do not replace the MAPINFO in zdoom.pk3 or otherwise alter zdoom.pk3.

[Edit] Notice I took out the line that said

Code: Select all

titlepatch = "WILV00"

That line tells Zdoom to use the normal graphics lump for the level name at the intermission screen. Without it, Zdoom uses the text I entered to generate the map name on the intermission screen. Also, because you just copied/pasted the full doom MAPINFO, there are possibly other things in the map definition that might not be appropriate for what you want to do. [/edit]
