Shultz scribbled these curious markings: > Error: Main WAD file not found > You need either doom.wad, doom1.wad, doom2.wad, > tnt.wad, plutonia.wad, heretic.wad or heretic1.wad > from any sharware or commercial version of Doom or Heretic! > If you have one of those files, be sure it has the correct case > or use the -IWAD command line switch. You need to get a WAD from somewhere (e.g. a shareware copy of one of the aforementioned games, or commercial, registered installation media). In the U.S., you should be able to pick up a copy of DOOM '95 or DOOM2 '95 at your local Wal-Mart for ~ 10 USD (which is what I paid for mine). Just copy the WAD from the disc and you're ready to go. > also, "... that's for games/doomsday, which you start with deng, as the > pkg-message clearly shows you when you install it." does not seem to work as > the pkg-info suggested it should when I ran "/usr/local/bin/doomsday -g jdoom > -f /usr/local/share/deng/Data/jDoom/jDoom.wad". Hmph. Blame my (normally superb) memory for that one. My apologies.
