When I play Doom or Doom2 (vanilla) any save I do and then try to reload does not work and says "this savegame needs these files:" (and nothing more)

Some questions come to mind:
  • Which version of GZDoom do you use?
  • Where did you install the game: Drive/Folder?
  • Does the game itself run without problems?

Ok I see now. I have been making maps (Ultimate Doom Builder) with my 4.11.3 folder and recently decided to play original doom but it was on a whole new machine where i just copy dumped everything including the doom wads in to the main folder. I didn't have doom installed on Steam.
I did a whole new latest GZDoom, installed all the steam Doom stuff, and now it snags the Steam wads and saves and loads just fine.
derp.
