Sephiroth Posted January 1, 2002 well i see most people here have forgoten, or dont even know, what a batch( *.bat) file is. i have batch files for all my old school and new dooming alike. i have a good one for slige that makes a level how i say and loads it into zdoom/original doom. if u dont know what one is try and learn about them. my DOS computer has doom as a screensaver, i just make doom load as the last thing in my autoexec.bat file. anyway happy new !DOOM! year, and go kick demon ass 0 Share this post Link to post

danarchist Posted January 1, 2002 I've known what .bat files are for quite a while, but I only recently learned how to use them to their full potential. The best part is that you use the QBasic screen to edit them. Muahaha! 0 Share this post Link to post

læmænt Posted January 1, 2002 bat files are unfortunatelly really pathetic compared to bash scripts. You can get bash for windows by the way, you don't need linux or anything. 0 Share this post Link to post
fraggle Posted January 1, 2002 perl/shell scripts > bat files. Bat files really are hideously underpowered in what you can actually do with them. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sephiroth Posted January 1, 2002 i have not even begun to get into bash files with linux, i know they are more powerful. batch files are powerful too if used right 0 Share this post Link to post
SaGa Posted January 1, 2002 I ordinarly dont use a bat file for anything, unless the wad came with one then i have a reson to be lazy and use it, i just use the windows run for launching all my doom stuff 0 Share this post Link to post
AirRaid Posted January 3, 2002 Heh, I use Batch files for running my wads through BSP. That's about it tho... I learnt about them years ago. 0 Share this post Link to post
