I've been using UDB for a while and this suddenly happened. I converted my wad to a PK3 a couple of weeks ago and it was working just a few days ago but now when I add the PK3 as a resource it doesn't load the user defined things but it loads the textures just fine. Please help.

You can try a different version of UDB. There have been a few bugs with user defined assets in some versions of UDB. Try downloading and installing a newer version of UDB.

What versions of UDB did you use?
Are you sure that you converted your info correctly when making the pk3?
etc, etc, more info needed

In lieu of answering any question it would be prudent to supply a link to your converted map!

Have fun, and tell me what you think.

Sorry, but fun this is not. What you linked to I would consider a bit of a mess.
There are far too many actors in one DECORATE lump. Maybe up to 10 actors
is okay, but then use #includes in DECORATE with folders and subfolders to
separate such actors.

For example:


especially when there are dozens of actors.

If only UDB would tell you what the problem is. Oh wait, it does!

I spent sometime and I organized the decorate into cars, decorations, enemies, pick ups, weapons, and misc. Still nothing. Strangely enough, when I load it in with ashes afterglow as another resource the user defined folder is still missing but I can place ashes actors in my level. Loading ashes by itself works.

Can you elaborate on what you mean? if you're talking about the error messages, I dont have any besides a double defined rocket launcher and and texture name length error.

Holy shit that double definition was the problem. Damn. Thank yall guys.

The error message always exactly tells you what is wrong. It is good to learn how to interpret such messages.
