Shepardus Posted May 27, 2021 That means there was an error in parsing the UMAPINFO lump; note that MAPINFO and UMAPINFO have different syntax. 0 Share this post Link to post

Shepardus Posted May 28, 2021 You need braces, like: MAP E1M1 { levelname = E1F1 next = E1M2 nextsecret = E1M10 music = D_GET intermusic = D_INTER } 1 Share this post Link to post

In your case all the values should have quotes around them. E.g.: levelname = "E1F1" 1 Share this post Link to post
maxmanium Posted May 30, 2021 I hate to ask this, but does anyone have a more recent Windows build? I'd compile it myself but I'm not technologically literate enough. 0 Share this post Link to post

Assuming you have a GitHub account and you're on 64-bit Windows (process is similar on 32-bit): Go here: https://github.com/coelckers/prboom-plus/actions Click the latest workflow run Scroll down and download the artifact called vs_x64 Extract the archive's contents to a folder of your choosing Go here: https://github.com/coelckers/prboom-plus/releases/tag/windows_dependencies Download the latest file (currently windows_dependencies_v4.zip) Inside this archive, navigate to dependencies_x64\bin and extract its contents to the previous folder Done! Optionally you can delete the .pdb files if you want. Hope this helps! :) 2 Share this post Link to post

maxmanium Posted May 31, 2021 I came across a weird issue while setting up a bunch of PWAD autoload stuff, but I'm not sure if it's a bug or something on my end. I have D2DEHFIX.DEH in the doom-all folder, which works fine regardless of anything else autoloaded... except for Eternal Doom. I have a wad by NightFright with a widescreen status bar and a DEHACKED patch, but the patch doesn't interfere with any frames, and I can't figure out why D2DEHFIX.DEH isn't loading: Spoiler 2 Share this post Link to post

Shepardus Posted June 6, 2021 3 hours ago, Giant Jumbo Jellyfish said: Is there a fix planned for tracker module support? For some reason DBP 36 (which features module music in multiple formats) crashes on the title screen using the latest CI build, yet it works on my laptop running Linux building it from the same source, and dsda-doom (on Windows) also works. Seems to be specific to how the PrB+ builds are generated or the dependencies used... 2 hours ago, Redoom said: <youtube embed> This was fixed a long time ago, update to 2.6um or later. 0 Share this post Link to post

Maybe the output from the CI workflow could be used (e.g. this)? I'm not sure what distribution that's for (edit: it's compiled against Ubuntu 20.04), though, and you'd need the dependencies anyway, so maybe you're better off building it yourself. You can refer to this guide written for compiling on Windows using MSYS2 - building on Linux is largely the same process, though how you install the necessary dependencies will differ depending on your distribution. (edit: for Linux you can also refer to the INSTALL guide in the repo) Maybe it'd be feasible to build an AppImage that'd work across distributions...
