Prboom--"stcfn096 Not Found"

[vputz]

playing with the OZ version of prboom, I'm at a loss.  I downloaded the shareware wad for fun, and can get it at least trying to initialize by starting from the same directory containing DOOM1.WAD and making a symlink to prboom.wad.

But when I try it, I get:

Code: [Select]

OK, so I don't have a real NEED--but for jollies, getting prboom running would be fine.  What obvious configuration am I missing?  This is OZ 3.5.2 on a 6000.

prboom.wad isnt supposed to be a copy (or symlink) of doom.wad

They are two seperate files.

So you are probably getting that because PrBoom isnt finding a file it wants.

I've got PrBoom working quite well, and I just bought the Collectors Edition Doom Trilogy for $10.

Dropped Doom.wad and Doom2.wad right off the CD and they both work great.

In the event I read our post wrong, and you do have the correct WADs, I have /root/.prboom pointing to a directory containing doom.wad and prboom.wad as well as my configs.

Thanks--that wasn't obvious from the messages, and prboom.wad isn't included in the OE ipk of prboom (should probably be fixed...):

Code: [Select]

root@tosa:/mnt/card/old_docs# ipkg files prboom
Package prboom (2.3.0-r1) is installed on sd and has the following files:
/mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/bin/prboom
/mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/apps/Games/prboom.desktop
/mnt/card/opt/QtPalmtop/pics/prboom.png
So, downloading the tar'd version of prboom for linux, version 2.3.0, and got its version of prboom.wad and threw that in a directory where prboom could find it:

Hmmmm.

Perhaps the linux version of prboom.wad wasn't the right format however.  So I tried using the prboom.wad from a different zaurus wad file, but that wasn't any help:

...so that wasn't it (now I'm in the same place I was before).

So SOMETHING is borked.  Not sure if it's the combination of files I'm having to use or what.  If you're using OZ 3.5.2, what files are you using?  Are they packages from the feed, or from elsewhere?

I think I have PrBoom-r3 from the upgrades, but I may have grabbed PrBoom-r2 while all the testing was going on.

IIRC, PrBoom out of the feed was built from PrBoom 2.3.0, and it doesnt work.
It was recompiled from PrBoom 2.2.6, and that does work.

I downloaded the linux version of 2.2.6 and took the prboom.wad file from that.

Netplay between the Zaurus and Desktop versions of 2.2.6 is beautiful.
