Can't play online, Doom 2 IWAD somehow missing?
Can't play online, Doom 2 IWAD somehow missing?
I went to play using the Doomseeker, and I have Doom 2, but it says the IWAD for the game is not available. I know I need to add the game's files in the "file paths" in options, but I cannot find the game at all. I have the game on my desktop, and I can play Zandronum single player just fine, so the game IS on my computer, yet I can't find the files
! Any idea where the game IWAD would be under when I go to add a file path? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

That means that it's probably in your Zandronum folder.Laces11 wrote: I have the game on my desktop, and I can play Zandronum single player just fine,

I looked under Zandronum, but all that is there are the announcer, doomseeker, and skins. I also have zandronum set as a wad path already.

You wouldn't happen to be using the Doom 3 BFG Edition copy of Doom2.wad would you? That uses a different version than the standard version that people play online with.

It rather sounds like his Doomseeker doesn't find his WAD at all.infurnus wrote: You wouldn't happen to be using the Doom 3 BFG Edition copy of Doom2.wad would you? That uses a different version than the standard version that people play online with.
