Never ever ever modify Doom2.wad...

If you're GOING to modify it, name it something ELSE and make sure the server and client are loading the same wads at the top of the console.

No offense dude but..... I'm not that stupid. It's called YtpV1.9.wad and I can't really call it an mod anymore... It has new maps. New monsters new sounds new classes.

Let's say it on a better way : I made my custom WAD

And it works with single-player zandronum. I tested it. It also works with bots. It's really about the server.

I did. Didn't you saw the link?

I can tell you it said "Level authencation failed. You must use exact the same wads" or something like that.

And I couldn't make the picture in full screen becuase of the print screen function. When you usually press the print screen button while in doom. And paste in in any program. It would give nothing more then a blank screen.

Create a logifile using "logfile log.txt" (unless this has been deprecated) in the console. But I think you can see everything from the screeny.

No, you didn't, and yes I saw the link. I asked for the full console log of client and server. Your screenie only shows part of the client log (and the interesting part that lists the loaded wads is missing) and nothing from the server log. You can create them by starting client and server with "+logfile filename" (as one_Two mentioned above).

I was not asking for the error message, that was clearly visible in your screenie. To say why you are getting the error I need the full logs I asked for.

Well sadly I can't becuase prnt-screen button does not work in zandronum. And pressing the picture button also doesn't work. While it does work while in game.

You don't need to make screenshots, use "+logfile filename" as additional option when starting client and server.

BTW: Are you by any chance using the "join server" button in the Windows server console? This one is buggy in 1.0. Use Doomseeker or IDE to join your server instead.

You may just be executing the files wrong. I had the same problem creating my own server in Doomseeker and then trying to join it. Anyone else could join it fine.

I found out that you don't want to add your custom wads in the "Additional WADS and files" box in Doomseeker. Leave it blank. You need to add them in your zandronum-(computername).ini file in your zandronum directory. Open it, then look for [Doom.Autoload] and add them there (Ex. Path=C:\Program Files\Zandronum\customdoom2.wad).

If you need to load the skulltag_actors/data files as well, also put them there.

Hope that helps. I was scratching my head for a bit on it, I didn't have this issue with Doomseeker/Skulltag. I'm casual with this stuff. :lol:

What? That information is invalid and no one should take this as any solution to any problem. I just checked to be extra sure and the "Additional WADS and files" in create server dialog in Doomseeker works properly.

You don't press Join Server i had that problem. Just type in the server name in the search box in doomseeker and click on it and it will load fine. Just don't press Join Server

Uhh, you are joining the server with the Join server button in the Windows server console... which has been explained at least 5 times on this forum that it's broken in 1.0. It's even written in the post above yours...

DON'T USE THE 'JOIN SERVER' MENU ITEM IN THE SERVER CONSOLE. JOIN WITH DOOMSEEKER OR IDE.[/size]

All I needed to hear. So glad everyone's so hostile around here when I was just posting a work around for someone else or figure out the problem.

Thanks and bye.

No, it's perfectly possible. The bug in the join server option of the Windows server console doesn't prevent you from making servers in any way.
Marine The Raccoon wrote: And Will it be fixed?
It's already fixed in the 1.1 beta versions.
