Question about DooM Builder.

-_- Simple, you're using A doom2 map (map01) in ultimate doom (e1m1)...

To fix, rename the MAP01 lump to E1M1. (but when I did that, the music was D_AREA51...I think you clicked the wrong one)

Also, Replica, if he took D_RAVE from skulltag.wad, then it's probably MUS.

lol, I didn't know what D_rave was.

I took D_STORAG instead of RAVE. I figured it wouldn't be exactly fitting.

Ah...well then. I guess it worked? Or were you just telling me you did a song change?

Frizkie · July 31, 2008, 10:11:29 PM

Well for some reason, now, I enter the game and I'm on a completely different level... O_o Wow, what did I do wrong?

EDIT: What did you say about MAPINFO? I think I could fix it there...

Atariangamer · July 31, 2008, 10:27:21 PM

Hold on... I think I know what you did...

did you use the TNCQ2 IWAD (renamed to doom2.wad), then added the TUCQ and your wad? then I know the problem...

Rename your level back to MAP01, then rename the song to D_RUNNIN (which is linked to MAP01)...

OK, well it seems to have worked! One more thing - when I'm in DooM Builder, and I try and export my map, it says it did not build the nodes or something like that. I tried downloading different nodebuilders but I've made no progress... is exporting essential? What's wrong? (By the way, I'm running it on my XP desktop.)

Uh, OK so I got everything done, music is fine. No problems! One thing: How do I actually NAME my map? Like the name that shows up in the Map window.

*sharp inhale* If your using GZDooM, MAPINFO is the best way to go...
...but I dont know how to use it very well $:-\$

There's an article about it on the ZDooM wiki.

I wish I could even understand the tutorial...

The Slimeinator · August 01, 2008, 12:45:02 PM

Take a look at the examples at the bottom of the page. They might help you understand MAPINFO a little more.

Frizkie · August 01, 2008, 01:05:45 PM

I try and do it but it's not working... what on earth am I doing wrong?

Frizkie · August 02, 2008, 12:06:41 AM

Everything is fixed. Thanks all who helped.

Atariangamer · August 02, 2008, 12:47:10 AM

Good...Now you know a bit about DooM editing, try more advanced things! (I noticed your level was kinda linear...maybe some more variety in heights?)
