Doom Builder 2 thread

I can't use DECORATE in this version, isn't working!!

Your decorate lump has errors, good milftales sir.

[Project Shadowcat]

Until you stop to look that it isn't reading replacements (like ACTOR PistolMarine : ZombieMan replaces ZombieMan). How the heck do you get DB2 to read zdoom.pk3 to see these so-called definitions that it can't catch? Especially since it works properly in testing mode (i.e., running zdoom.exe)!

Also, how the hell do you de-select lots of sectors and lines?

You get warnings if your DECORATE has errors (or is missing dependencies), you can see those warnings by pressing F11 after loading the map. You should include zdoom.pk3 when editing for ZDoom. So in the Game Configuration you add "doom2.wad" and "zdoom.pk3" in that order. (See the tutorial on the website how to do this)

Press F1 and RTFM.

For some odd reason, DoomBuilder2 can't read pk3's made with zipdir:

zipdir.zip

Odd, I can't find the thread the originally had this.

Complains about its compression method (even though I remember a changelog saying you fixed it).

Your PK3 file must be in standard zip format (Deflate), not something like BZip or LMZA or whatever.

But i can't even see the "Decorate" category on the Things

Yes, I can deselect one line/sector/thing at a time, but there is no mass-deselect. Click in empty space and nothing happens. Even your Manual does not reference this after doing a search on "deselect" (for which there is only one entry).

There is also one decorate error that's a little frustrating, also not giving me a warning in ZDoom. It says:
Unable to parse DECORATE data from location C:\Documents and Settings\Project Dark Fox\Desktop\tsat.WAD. Expected numeric editor thing number or start of actor scope on line 170 in 'DECORATE'

I don't think your DECORATE reader likes hyphens.

I suppose that's doable. Any chance in you adding the other deflation rules though?

I'm working on GZDoom.cfg...

Edit: Done. I guess that is all that was missing...

.....why?

[Shadelight]

Are there any ZDoom/GZDoom UDMF configs for the other games?

Randy already did it but it depended on a DLL that had some bugs. The problem we are facing here is that .NET apparently needs specially prepared libraries. Wriring a general purpose Zip/7Z decompressor based on ZDoom's is not hard - but I have no idea how to interface something like that with .NET.

Press C.

No matter where I put the DLG file always results in error message:

Why? I need to yse DB1 to compile my Scripts. =/

[skadoomer]

edit: i'm having the same problem as above. Is it possible to configure a scripts directory for cases like #import or #include?
