Okay - that is too old, you need a recent IWAD (v1.4 or 1.6 IIRC). The patches to upgrade to v1.9 are all available on the 'net (for DOS, though). > The doom2.wad comes from the windoom cd, I don't know the version, > strings and hexdump don't show it. This looks like the standard v1.9, from the size and checksum. Renaming that doom2.wad.orig to doom2.wad, try explicitely giving prboom that file as the iwad (prboom -iwad doom2.wad) to make sure it is picking up the right file. >> What Linux distro, what platform, & did you compile PrBoom youself or >> are you using an RPM? > > Slackware Linux 10.2 on a P2 400 intel, prboom 2.4.2, compiled from src. > |
