I'm new to this stuff, but how do I load up a custom WAD?

There are two easy ways:

1. Through a batch file or at the command line:

zdoom -file *.wad

(To create a batch file, open notepad and enter the above command where * is the name of your wad and save the file in your zdoom directory as *.bat).

NB: The "-file" is not needed with zdoom, but I always put it in anyway. Old habits die hard.

2. Drag the wad file onto Zdoom.exe, it will load it up for you.

If that's not too much of a chore to code, I vote once more for this runtime command args box as well
