So in a non-programmer's language, what's the solution?

I don't think there was anything terribly programmery about that...

Since he fixed it, you have to get the fix now. Bleeding edge builds (compiled by MSVC for Windows) are posted to http://prboom-plus.sourceforge.net/history.html regularly.

Hi. Whenever I'm playing a wad which has more than 32 maps and exit MAP33, MAP34, MAP35, etc., PrBoom returns me the message:

PrBoom said:

W_GetNumForName: CWILV33 not found.

Is there a way to avoid that and actually be allowed to exit a level which is higher than MAP32?

Thanks a lot!

Seems reasonable. It's a straightforward patch to skip drawing the level name if the lump doesn't exist.

Not too sure if this counts as an issue per se but when PrBoom+ is paused the PAUSE text that comes up on the screen stays in the same location regardless of what screen size is used. In vanilla and Choco the PAUSE text moves relative to the screen size chosen - even when changing screen size while the game is paused. Just thought I'd mention it... :)

Debian Stable prboom bug. v2.5.0 when running with -devparm.

Here is the output. When I run without -devparm it will run, but when I use -devparm I get this.

Thanks, I've cherry-picked a fix from PrBoom-Plus for this, although I'm not sure -devparm even does anything useful these days...
