Master Levels of Doom on Steam not recognized by DE

Instructions stated that for Steam games it would auto detect; it did not. I directed it to wad files "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Master Levels of Doom\master\wads" it did not find anything. I know that Master Levels is not listed as supported game, but, it is from the Steam community site that I was directed here. So what it up? Do I need to install an earlier version of Doom, like Doom2?

    master level are just regular wads. they are not a doom engine or something. you will have to add them manually to doom2.

    How would I do that? I have looked at the DE wiki and there is some complicated process for creating "packages". Or would I just have to copy the wads to the Doom2 folder?

    On the home page, scroll to the packages tab and press the configure data files button to open a tab where you can load an add-ons folder that contains pwads (like the Master Levels).

    Then scroll to the Doom tab and press the box button next to the Doom2 button, to bring up a tab where you can select pwads to load from all the add-on folders you loaded on the packages tab.

    Bare in mind that a lot of the Master Level pwads replace the same map number, so you have to load many of them individually.

    I'll make some usability improvements in 2.1 with regard to Master Levels.

    1) They will be tagged with a "masterlevels" tag, so one can find them in the Mods list (was called "Packages" in 2.0).

    2) When using the "Play In..." feature (Mods/Packages list in Home -> right click a PWAD -> Play In) with a PWAD that has a single map (such as the Master Levels), an additional Episode is added containing just the map. This makes it easier to start the right map via the game menu.
