Dialogue won't work

#1

Post by dominik0801 » Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:15 am

Hello! I'm new with dialogs, but one of my new wad, that i am making for my friends to play together must have dialogs.

The problem is, my dialogues are working in ZDoom, but not in Zandronum.

What did I do wrong?

I already played some wads with zandronum, and the dialogs in them worked fine.

Map format: UMDF.

I have had the same problem with testing dialogue in UDMF format. It seems like zandronum simply doesn't read the file at all.

I made a thread about it two years ago, but no one cared to reply to it.

The only advice I can give you is to put the dialogue outside of the maps internal files, you can read about that on the zdoom wiki.

Does it work in zdoom 2.5.0? If not its a bug and should be posted on the tracker.

Hello! I tried it with 2.5.0 - it didn't work! Also, putting it outside in Slade didn't work.

And if its important, but I forgot to write, its ZSDF.

Sadly that means it was likely added in 2.6.0 or later. Eventually Zandronum will get this through backporting, though I expect that to be a far way off (maybe 6-12 months? possibly longer).
