amazing port :D, how else can this version get any better??
amazing port :D, how else can this version get any better??
Would anyone be interested in the suggestion made by a member (sorry I forget your name) for status messages to be printed on screen?
I.e. when you pick up a weapon, treasure etc it would tell you at say the top left...
Aside from that any other new features you would like to see in 5.1?
I am going to make the gameloader non static in the next release... So you can put it in whatever folder you want... with a possibility of whatever filename you want for the subfolders too...
Please post if you have any suggestions, they may or may not be in v5.1 which i hope will actually be the final release lol :p
This would be a nice thing for me, as I prefer to keep my GAME folder in the 1.50 kernel.
I have a quick question about getting SOD 2 & 3 working. Which exact files are required? My disc doesn't seem to have as many files as it did for SOD 1 or the original game.

With this new release, your download should include the readme I wrote. In that readme, I mention how to install it, 6 steps. Now to give you your answer though, I'll merely quote what was wrote (I made a ryhme!)
Also in the Readme, mentioned in the FAQS portion:Quote:
3. Copy these files* from your disk or CD-
AUDIOHED.WL6
AUDIOT.WL6
GAMEMAPS.WL6
MAPHEAD.WL6
VGADICT.WL6
VGAGRAPH.WL6
VGAHEAD.WL6
VSWAP.WL6
*Note- Same goes for Spear of Destiny Files (.SOD). Also, Make sure you’re using the original files from SOD and/or Wolfenstein 3D. Other files such as modified ones or ones from pspdoom probably won’t work.

If all fails, please contact da1writer by sending him a PM on the Dcemu forums, he’s on more than me.
I read the readme quite closely, and it did very well in helping me get the original Wolfenstein 3D and Spear of Destiny working great. It showed I needed 8 files, and I had those 8 on my disc.
I listed the files in my cd for SOD 2 & 3 as an attempt to point out that there doesn't exist 8 .SD2 or .SD3 files. I only have three .SD2 and three .SD3 files.
So, do I only need those 3 files? Or do I need 8? This disc is pretty old, but I remember it working fine... so it should have everything I need.
Thanks for any help... and sorry if my question is 'noobish'.
The general answer is you need every file except for user configs, savegames, or PC executables. Copy all others to the directory.
I had similar problem with 'lost episodes' of sod. I have cd version, with all three episodes in one dir. All you have to do, is to rename proper extensions to *.SOD. In attachment I added a simple script to split files into separate dirs. Just rename extansion to *.bat and run it in sod folder.
I vote yes! :cool: As well as the in game Map idea I also mentioned in that thread. Other then those 2 things I find it perfect! Seriously very well done.
Oh here are the screenshots again:

Hello Zack, You asked what feature people might like to see in 5.1, so i have a suggestion: i think some people would like to see an (auto)map feature.
I saw a Wolfenstein Port for PC some time ago (don't remember it's name), which has an interesting feature: Secrets are marked as yellow parts of the Walls, which are normally black, so finding them is not that difficult as in the normal game.
