Zandronum Start-off From Download (?)

#1

Post by Hardbash » Fri Oct 26, 2012 2:54 am

I soo loved Skulltag when I first found out about it because when I downloaded mods, it was playable from the downloaded place, no going through stupid files and putting a file in another place and having to delete something else and yadda yadda.
Now, since Zandronum has taken over Skulltag, I'm using that instead.
What can I delete in my .doomseeker folder to make sure Zandronum starts doing what Skulltag has? The only way I can use Zandronum is either finding the file in my .doomseeker, or with mods, starting it in the Doomseeker server browser.

I feel that this paragraph will be tough to read. I want someone to edit it so that it won't end up sounding really dumb. I don't think I can do that, and if I try changing it, I may end up making it worse. And so is this paragraph. ARRG!
EDIT: I also found the .doomseeker folder when I was going through tuts on YouTube trying to find out how to mod with the .minecraft folder. I opened my .doomseeker and was like, "So that's where the damn thing put my mods."

It's actually very easy; just open up Doomseeker's settings and go to File Paths; make sure the path to Zandronum.exe is in there. Then make sure that's the path Wadseeker downloads to. After that copy your WAD files to that same Zandronum path too. :)

If you need me to I can make screenshots too. :)

Ask your doctor if Zandrama is right for you. Side effects include butthurt, loss of sleep, loss of ego, embarrassment, and social withdrawal.

No no, from different websites NOT using doomseeker to aquire them. Like I go to downloads, then my winrar file I downloaded, and then the mod I downloaded is accessable by Skulltag, not Zandronum. That's what I need to fix. I'm tired of going through all the steps of starting doomseeker, starting offline game with Zandronum with the mod I downloaded.

Accesible by what exactly? You can't open wad files while you're already in the Skulltag/Zandronum. Maybe you mean file association?
Shared keys will now be in Zandro! Thanks devs for their work, and users for the support!

If that means starting the wad from the file location and NOT from Doomseeker with Zandronum, yes. Like, lets say I want to play Drown in Blood with Skulltag, right? I go into my library and go into my wad file path for Skulltag, because that's faster than the alternative route. This time I want to only do that with Zandronum and with the rest of the Wads I have in stock. I'll add another picture to make it more simple, you don't know what kind of an idiot you're talking to, lol.

Seems like a file association issue to me.

Easiest way to fix this is to uuninstall Skulltag.

A harder way that requires more setup is you have to right click any WAD file, choose properties, then click the Open With... button and choose to open the file with Zandronum by default instead of Skulltag.

Sure, I have to ask, are you ESL? If so we might have some members here who speak your native language. :) Sorry if this sounds insulting.

Does my text sound stupid? I can never make it sound 'normal' imo. All I speak is English. It's not insulting, btw. I just need improvement on that.
