0001188: Using drag-and-drop method to load wads does not support PK7
Apperantly, drag-and-drop only supports .WAD, .ZIP, and .PK3.
Try dragging and dropping a PK7 onto Zandronum.exe in Windows. I would make a minimal example wad if I was on my editing computer right now, but I'm not. For right now, just make a blank PK7 with one thing in it (a replacement for TITLEPIC or DSPISTOL for example) and try loading it via drag-and-drop.
I've been told that simply renaming the .pk7 to .pk3 fixes the problem, which tells me that it's a problem with Zandronum not recognizing the PK7 extension. It doesn't have anything to do with LZMA compression.
offline, pk7

Is this the same in GZDoom r323? What about latest ZDoom?

Drag and drop with pk7 works in the current version of Zandronum. Eventual fix.
