It took about a couple days, but I finally finished my first map in Doom builder.
Even managed to turn it into an episode and everything.
(It's short as hell but I'm proud)
When I run it in Doom builder everything is exactly how I want it,
but when I drag the wad to GZDoom.exe, it can't find the brick12 texture I've reused a ton,
and I think the anchor object doesn't work this way either....
Do I need to put certain textures into the .Wad using Slade? Or do I need to do something else?
In doom builder I had GZDoom.pk3 and Doom2.wad in the resources, I assume this correlates somehow.
No clue though. Still a rookie.
How to run my map?

Okay, when you click gzdoom.exe, what happens? If any of the games directly starts, you've pre-selected an iwad. I think tou can change this setting in options.
But first, what happens when you doubleclick gzdoom.exe?

when I press shift during bootup, it lets me choose between that, and "The Ultimate Doom"
I assume I have to add Doom 2, maybe? could be wrong.

Okay, looks like you dont even has gzdoom. So, in order to use gzdoom, just head over to zdoom.org and download gzdoom. I cannot support doom unity, as it is completely different thing.

Re: How to run my map?
I did it! I did have GZDoom, but I think Doom2.wad wasn't in the right directory.
Everything works!! Hooray!
It's interesting, you could tell it wasn't supposed to run in doom 1,
cause the episode title font was a little different.
my custom map literally had bright outlines than the regular episodes.
Now everything fits!
