Whats a good template for mapinfo?

Bionic_spencer · February 22, 2021

I did read the wiki, but I don't understand it at all
before you call me out yeah I'm a noobie

Bionic_spencer · February 22, 2021

So far this is what I've been using but it doesn't reach map info's full capability

What capability is it missing that you want to reach? That would serve as a fine template to follow, really. If you want scrolling skies you can change the value after SKY1 to be, say, 0.5 rather than 0. You can also use it to turn on uniform wall lighting and disable jumping/crouching.

I guess full capability is an over statement but Its missing stuff like the ability to have maps in episodes and custom difficulties and such like that?
tried the mapinfo converter from the gzdoom website but not sure how to use that either

well, with the template you have you can add what you feel is missing from it with the info in the wiki.

To tell you the truth, most of the things that appear on the map definition wiki are pretty especific and you may never use them.

As for the episode selection, just add this on top of the template

episode (put here without the brackets the name of the map you want, example map12)
{
   picname = "name of the image you use to show your episode name" (only if you have one, omit it if you don't have)
   name = "your cool episode name you want" (example Doom 2 "ravaged city" for map12 to map20)
}

that way you could start Doom 2 on map07, or on map12 for the city episode, or on map 21 for the hell episode

you have to rename it MAPINFO

and put it on an empty wad with slade.

i just notice that the template is on the old format.

Don't know if that format is still supported on GZDoom recent builts, and for certain, that format didn't supported the episode selection.

Use this one instead:

// MAPINFO for TNT. Exactly the same as Doom 2, except it
// has different map names and cluster messages.

you have to rename it MAPINFO

and put it on an empty wad with slade.

i just notice that the template is on the old format.

Don't know if that format is still supported on GZDoom recent builts, and for certain, that format didn't supported the episode selection.

Use this one instead:


// MAPINFO for TNT. Exactly the same as Doom 2, except it
// has different map names and cluster messages.

you will have to search for a program or an online site that generate the patches on Doom font.

I use Doom Writer, its kinda tricky to use but once you read the readme it works like a charm.

There is also BitmapFont Writer that not only let you work on Doom font names patches, but a lot more different fonts, to personalize your project even more.

There is aslo this site, it work pretty good too:

yes, after you have all the maps new CWILVs you need to convert them to doom image format and they will work on your mod.

probably is the .txt extension of the file.

try deleting the extension and then importing it into the wad.

Not too entirely sure what mapinfo/doomcommon even is

P41R47 · February 23, 2021

on slade, select the mapinfo, and on the right screen, select ''text language: ZDoom Mapinfo''.

Then write on the map info screen on slade, and then delete it if you don't need to write anythining more.

Save the file, save the wad, and try again.

If it still doesn't work, i don't know what it could be, never happened to me :/

Then write on the map info screen on slade, and then delete it if you don't need to write anythining more.

Save the file, save the wad, and try again.

If it still doesn't work, i don't know what it could be, never happened to me :/

awww I'm dumb that was just like the "include" text you put at the top of you're script, so I guess it was just the .txt

oh thats easy, open the mapinfo on slade and every line of code will be numbered.

delete completely line 4.

Also, you will have the information double per map, as i didn't notice and just pasted the code for both TNT and Plutonia up there, so you better delete all the code from line 420 to the at 838.

No I just pasted tnt
unless I had to recopy and paste it and got both

edit: just checked and its just tnt
edit 2: since I'm an absoloute genius I thought you were reffering to me copy and pasting both

okay I know I said the other thing was the last thing and I know I'm already annoying by starting this topic but the title patches show the leven name when entering and exiting but the tnt names show in the console and in the auto map and I'm not know how change it

strange, if you are playing on a sourceport that supports mapinfo, they should had change automatically. Thats the purpose of the mapinfo.

Maybe its the following, try it on one map and if its that, do it for the rest, too:

Change this:

map MAP01 lookup "THUSTR_1"

into this:

map MAP01 "your map name"

not sure what this thing next to the map name is when the map name is shown in the console but it works
Now I just gotta get GAMEINFO figured out
