Pin Specific WAD files to my Shortcuts

edited 2012 Mar 21 in Technical Support
I searched this forum but was not able to find the correct answer.

With Doomsday 1.8.6 I injected my *.wad files and linked them in the shortcuts.

like this:
"%~dp0jdoom.exe" -file >data\jdoom\doom.wad

This shortcut then directly called Doomsday running doom1

I want to do the same with the "new" doomsday but somehow I am getting nowhere.
Can anyone tell me how this needs to be done with the latest greatest version?

  • Replace jdoom.exe with doomsday.exe and then add the name of the game mode you wish to play to your shortcut, e.g., -game doom1-ultimate to play Ultimate DOOM.

    It would also appear you are not specifying an IWAD. This is not absolutely necessary if Doomsday can find it automatically via some other means (e.g., you've installed it to your Doomsday install directory or you have configured an environment path to it's location). Otherwise you should specify that path also with the -iwad argument, e.g., -iwad c:/path/to/my/iwads/doom.wad
