I can't load up E2M1

Post by signofzeta »

Could not find map E1M0

From ultimate doom.
I used ZDL sharp, and in the warp parameter, I put E2M1. It does not work. I put in just 1, and it loads Hangar. Ok fine, I load up 9, and it give me military base. But when I put in 11, it does not work, nor if I put in 21.

Now I figured it is suppsed to be 2 1, not 21, or e2m1. I kind of think that it is a little wierd to number the warp parameters like that. Finally got deimos anomaly to work, although that is a very crappy deathmatch map.

It should just be

map e2m1

Hm. Perhaps your IWAD is screwy!

Nope, your way does not work. I've did e2m1, with the same iwad mind you, on older versions of zdoom, but now, it is different. I have to remember to put a space between the episode and level.

i guess this has something to do if you use "idclev" or "map".

Emphasis mine.

The warp parameter does not take the lump name. For ExMy format maps, the format is "-warp x y". Try putting in "2 1" and it should work.

Hotwax is right.

Also, there's a drop down menu for Warp in ZDL. Have you tried that?

Failing that, are you sure you don't have just the shareware wad?

I can confirm this: an Ultimate Doom IWAD in ZDL Sharp does not respond to ExMx in the Warp dropbox. The last BioHazard version of ZDL, however, treated this as a +map command line switch, so typing E2M1 into it results in the proper map warp. Conclusion: ZDL Sharp is bugged.

Thank you for your enlightening input. This thread was highly useful.
