Custon spirtes don't work in vanilla ports

[Jastrzab Trzeci]

Today I was trying to add some custom weapon textures in SLADE, and I was amazed by results. There is, however, one problem. While in ports like Doom Retro or ZDoom everything works fine, crispy doom shows first custom weapon bugged, second at all, and chocolate doesn't show anything.
Here you can see how the wad and gameplay in crispy looks

Unfortunately, Doom/Doom2.exe and Chocolate Doom (along with its fork Crispy Doom) does not have support for sprites with custom names.

Also, one of your sprites is in PNG format, which is not supported in vanilla Doom.

Just one clarification: that one png file wasn't meant to be used, i just didn't bother to delete it.
I've also converted the rest of the files to doom format, however, I think I could do it wrong, because only part of them works.

Nevermind, I found the fix: I've just needed to convert the "problematic" sprites to global config. It still doesn't work with chocolate, but I don't mind it. Sorry for bothering you all

Haven't see the GIF (because I'm too laggy right now), but I had same problem and if I remember correctly, I fixed it with using -merge <wad> parameter instead -file <wad> (in chocolate doom)

Chocolate Doom does suppot DeusF (Which does sprite merging) and DeHacked (And has its own dedicated option for it). More details are on the Choco wiki.

If you put the sprites at the very top of the list and re-name them, both in Slade and DeHackEd/WhackEd, they’ll work just fine in vanilla. Look up my Dehacked tutorial on YT, detailed instructions are in the second half of the vid.

 

The easier option is to just use the -merge command rather than the -file command in Choco.
