just a small question about the title screen

[forgettable pyromaniac]

I have created demos for a wad I am working on, but they play before the intro music/credits finish. Can i change it so it will play after?

I think this behavior is hard coded in all ports of Doom. They just automatically begin playing.

A zero-second song will instantly play the demo.

Quite incorrect. The title sequence is based on a timer (nearly 5 seconds for Doom, 11 seconds for Doom2), and there's nothing in Doom that tracks the status of music playback.

I think that i see an option in zdoom base ports to not replay demos at all.

That way, the Title screen will sound at full lenght.

If not, change to DoomRetro, no demos, so really long staring to Titlepic and it magic tune ;)

Basically your options are:

• No demos, music fully plays
• Use demos, but music changes
• Trim the music to fit in the time before demos begin if possible
