The /newstuff Chronicles #16

Anyone know what the story is here?
The text file says it's for Doom2 v1.9, and yet the wad has a long-filename and the demo doesn't seem to run synchronously with Doom2 or any of the source ports I've tried. The map seems fine with doom2.exe, but the demo certainly doesn't.

While I'm on the subject of this kind of confusion... wad authors, please... if a map only requires a port to remove limits (visplane errors, etc.) then say so in the text file. Don't say it's specifically for Boom, or specifically for ZDoom, you're only limiting your potential market. The same goes for general-Boom levels sold as specific ZDoom levels. Are we users supposed to think that the map must be technically more advanced if it's "for Edge only" or "for ZDoom only"?

It works fine for me with Doom2.exe.
And Sam's demo played fine for me too.

not sure what the problem could be.
If you want to try another demo, there is one on my page).

also: I completely agree with your comment about port-only wads. However, most authors do give accurate info.
