Are there any widgets of graphical elements that show up? If not, then it sounds like an OS issue. What version of Windows are you on? Any information about your setup would help.

Pretty much all of those links are broken. Luckily I downloaded ZDL 3.2.2.2 before they went down so I zipped the files and uplaoded it to Mediafire. If anyone is interested you can download it from here ---> http://www.mediafire.com/download/rsppc ... .2.2.2.zip enjoy!

Kudos for being considerate but I think this is a better starting point:

http://zdoom.org/wiki/ZDL

Users can get the updated version from there. 3.2.2.3 beta I believe.

Just to make sure that nobody downloads a bad zip in the future, the file hashes I have of the originals are:

ZDL-3.2.2.2-stable.zip
  • MD5: c8ffdf339a98022d93c4716ecb5d3a1e
  • SHA1: 1eb2e011f9164b1a4ce302fd56599d03ca832f73
  • SHA256: e4c495c31263ce469f0cc3bc1fed310e7103c713364767b0a0c7695b20865093
  • SHA512: e5153e5905e867b59aa9aa874e08402face651f4c0e780aad7d591397933eca1185aa61c323ef5f3a1b8fab4a7de9e7ee3877933c05ef4c1b72499da7e20a880
I have ZDL-3.2.2.2-stable.zip, but I have lost the original for ZDL-3.2.2.3-beta.zip, nor do I have the checksums for it. I know people have emailed me copies, but I cannot trust a ZIP that didn't come from my system.

Edit: Actually, I may have found it. I'll post hashes for that on Tuesday if that's the case.

The build infrastructure I had setup is long gone, and I haven't used Windows at home in 10 years. My virtual machine that did the building died, and I haven't had time to put it back together. There really hasn't been any need to come back to ZDL, there haven't been any major bugs that I've known about.

I constantly use it and haven't encountered any bugs I think. My only gripe is that it is hard to see what is actually selected in the IWAD list. The difference in color between the active/selected iwad and the rest of them is too small (when the focus is on another element like the pwad list)

Can you show me a screenshot? Back when I was writing ZDL, the selected was dark blue and the unselected was white, but I think I used the Windows Classic (9x) theme.

I just want to say that I've spent several weeks playtesting other Linux-compatible DOOM frontends (specifically, SSGL and Rocket Launcher 2), and I now think ZDL is still the best. I like the simple workflow and UI, I like how it has such excellent support for .deh files, and I like how it clearly has had a decade's worth of bug fixes.

The only suggestions I could make are to allow the use of drag-and-drop to reorder the PWAD list, and maybe update the codebase to Qt 5.

Note: I am a Qt expert, and I'd be happy to make any improvements that you request or approve.

Biohazard created ZDL and a few other good people contributed to it. You should fork it and continue development.
