The engine does not see some wads

martinezz123

I've got these wads:
chex.wad
DOOM.WAD
DOOM2.WAD
doom64_abstin.wad
freedm.wad
freedoom1.wad
freedoom2.wad
HACX.WAD
HERETIC.WAD
HEXDD.WAD
HEXEN.WAD
PLUTONIA.WAD
STRIFE1.WAD
TNT.WAD

But when I start the doomsday 2.3 it sees only some of them (doom, hexen, heretic, chex etc.)
There are three games which are not displayed:
doom64 absolution.wad
freedm.wad
freedoom.wad

What can I do?

Vermil

Dday doesn't support Strife, while support for Doom64 Absolution should probably be considered 'abandoned' since it's a mod rather than an official game.

wjat's with freedoom?

skyjake

Doomsday recognizes the following versions of Freedoom out of the box:

• 0.6.4
• 0.7
• 0.8
• 0.8.1
• 0.9
• 0.10
• 0.10.1
• 0.11.2
• 0.11.3
• 1.12.1

Perhaps yours is not one of these.

In any case, you can create a custom profile for your Freedoom and select any IWAD to use for that profile. Instructions can be found here: https://talk.dengine.net/discussion/comment/17958/#Comment_17958

Thanks.
But...
It does not recognise anything new here (no way for choosing personal wad):

Can you confirm that you're running Doomsday 2.2 or 2.3? The New Profile dialog should have more settings that your screenshot is showing.

Oh. My bad.
Now (v2.2) it works!
