How to start my map in BRUTAL doom?

Post by martinezz123 »

I watched this tutorial:
https://youtu.be/5COwz40azsA?list=PLgyv ... Kwk&t=1718

...and added paths for brutal doom to gzdoom ini. Like this:
[doom.Autoload]
Path=$PROGDIR/brutalv21.pk3
...
[doom.id.doom2.Autoload]
Path=$PROGDIR/brutalv21.pk3
etc.

Gzdoom seems to try to start brutal doom but returns an error:

Sript error, "brutalv21.pk3: cvarinfo" line 1: cvar "bd_bloodamount" already exists

I completely don't know what to do with this.

I see you posting a whole lot of question related topics lately.

For this one, please provide the brutalv21.pk3, your autoload ini, and your map wad so the Community Guide's can take a look to see if they can replicate the issue.

Can't upload my pk3 here.
Can't uplad brutalv21 here.

The page disconnects.

However, while my map is 99,9% finished I've upladed it at Mods DB.
https://www.moddb.com/games/doom-ii/add ... rkest-doom
The brutalv21 is a standard pk3 downloaded from there too.
https://www.moddb.com/mods/brutal-doom/downloads

Im uploading my ini here.

About my pk3:
THE DARKEST DOOM pk3
https://www.moddb.com/games/doom-ii/add ... nloadsform

Play at:
Gamma - 1.8
Brightness - 0
Contrast - 1

This map is my first attempt at GzDoom builder, and the first part of a larger Doom story multilevel game, which will come in a few months.

Have fun!

You can't use large attachments on the forum, i forgot to mention (apologies). Use an external file host for these.

Check out the ini setup. It autoloads brutaldoom several times.

[Global.Autoload]
[...]
# any files listed under 'doom.Autoload' will be loaded for any version of Doom,
# but files listed under 'doom.doom2.Autoload' will only load when you are playing a Doom 2 based game (doom2.wad, tnt.wad or plutonia.wad),
[...] and files listed under 'doom.doom2.commercial.Autoload' only when playing doom2.wad.

If you head to play bd on every Doom game leave the Path=$PROGDIR/brutalv21.pk3 under [doom.Autoload] but remove the others.
Or keep the others but remove Path=$PROGDIR/brutalv21.pk3 from under [doom.Autoload], [doom.id.Autoload] and [doom.id.doom2.Autoload].

Unpack GZDoom, Doom2.wad, brutalv21.pk3 and your map.pk3 into one directory, delete your ini file and better create a file with *.bat extensions, open it up with notepad and write this:

GZDoom -file brutalv21.pk3, yourmap.pk3

Save this bat file and double click on it to run, choose doom2 as your IWAD, reconfigure your setup and play.
