Hi res texture path, how?

[kinkyfriend85]

How do I get GZDOOM running a texture path?
And what must I do to have them resized ingame?

What's a texture path?

[Daemon]

You make a folder named "Textures" inside your gzdoom directory. You then put the textures with the proper name of the graphical texture, which you want to replace inside the Iwad into the folder named "Textures" (like a texture with the name Door3 replaces the first door in the first episode/level of Doom1).

"resizing textures"

Graf Zhal has done nothing about Hi res texture resizing You may recommend it as a feature suggestion, so he can do something about it. frankly, it is really annoying when textures don't fit on a wall

[Agent ME]

Yes Graf (or somebody) has. HiresTex lump in documentations thread.

[kinkyfriend85]

I've done the hirestex lump and placed it inside the zip file,

I have these files:

Textures (folder)
DEMOTEST.WAD
HIRESTEX.LMP or TXT (told that it doesn't matter)

in a zip file (in that order)

and this is the HIRESTEX lump data:

define ALITN3 64 64
define ALITN4 64 64
define TATREE2 64 128
define TATREE3 64 128
define TBLUE 128 128
define TDIRT19 128 128
define TIW6 128 128
define TIW43 128 128
define TIW44 64 64
define TIW45 128 128
define TMNT5 128 128
define TMNT15 128 128
define TMNT19 128 128
define TMONT 128 128
define TSGRAS5 32 32
define TSGRAS7 32 32
define WFENCE 32 32

And they still don't get scaled!

Don't put your hires textures in the textures folder. That one is equivalent to the TX_ namespace. Put them in the zip's main folder or in 'graphics/' instead.

[kinkyfriend85]

Okay thanks, I thought something was wrong due to that TX_START and the end cannot contain scaling. I'll try now again and thanks alot!

Btw wouldn't it be far much more convenient if you could use Textures1 lump thats placed in the zip like anything else?, or are you planning to do some simple programme that steals the name of all files that you select in windows? and then add the little code needed, except for what size you want them ingame? That'd be really good too

The zip format supports everything WAD supports. Of course you can put patches and a TEXTURE1/PNAMES combination in there if you need to. There's just a few subdirectories that map to ZDoom's predefined namespaces. After all, they have to be supported as well.

[kinkyfriend85]

Does this mean I can do Textures1 with scaling for hi res textures and put that lump in the zip to have my hi res textures working correctly?

[Graf Zahl]

Sure. But don't forget PNAMES.

[kinkyfriend85]

It didn't seem to work when I just tried it :/

[Enjay]

There's just a few subdirectories that map to ZDoom's predefined namespaces.

What are these (ie how should I name the directories)? I'm guessing Sprites, flats and maybe TX. Any others?

[Graf Zahl]

Look in the Documentation thread.
