Chocolate Doom Won't Launch On Windows 8.1

[Frost-Core]

Hello guys! it seems like that i want to use a mod called ROOM, but it does not work with lzdoom, but as i've seen it requires chocolate doom, but when i launch it, i hear the doom startup music, and then it crashes, just a bit of the music, also it says "BEX", what does that even mean? bexen?, please help me i just want to play that wad and its deh file

BEX stands for Boom EXtensions, and requires Boom support. It cannot be used in chocolate doom. It requires a port such as DSDA-Doom.

DSDA Doom worked, but chocolate even without room does not work

Without a crash message, we can't offer any explanation. Chocolate Doom runs fine on windows 8.1, so your problem is related to something else you've yet to identify.

Is this it? : http://paste.debian.net/1236540/ also i copied it from "problem details"

Ahh, in this case he's not talking about BEX, the Boom Extension. He's talking about a Buffer Overflow Exception.

 

That said, are you entering the commandline entries right?

-iwad doom2.wad -merge room.wad -deh room.deh

You could just answer what @Dark Pulsewas asking for verification or use the search before making a thread.

 

The latter is something you can do on your own and the former is just rude to ignore.

 

Given Crispy works i suspect an internal limit or a system issue.

yes i did, also even if i run it without the -merge and -deh it wont launch the vanilla wad. i suspect that its trying opengl but it failed.
