MAPINFO problems

GZDooM is giving a variety of errors within MAPINFO, depending on where the text is located. Currently, I have the following MAPINFO:
Spoiler:
and GZDooM spits out the following Fatal Error on startup:
Script error, "paranoid.pk3:mapinfo" line 91:
{: Unknown top level keyword

When I move the text around as follows:
Spoiler:
and GZDooM spits out the following Fatal Error on startup:
Script error, "paranoid.pk3:mapinfo" line 67
Expected '{', got 'sky1'.

I vaguely remember hearing that gameinfo has not yet been implemented in the official versions of GZDooM, but I don't believe that is the problem (as it's commented out in this MAPINFO definition).

I can't use old mapinfo that works on older zdoom engines, like ST97D in anything new
i keep getting the error which states that i need skills to clear them o_O
but it works fine in older versions

The problem is that you're mixing two different MAPINFO syntax, the old (with the "property value" form) in the map definitions and the new ("property = value") in the skill definition. Choose one or the other, not both. :wink:

Ah, yes. I should have figured that there may have been a conflict between the old stuff I had created and the new stuff that Enjay sent me. Thanks.

GAMEINFO blocks most likely don't even work with the old syntax at all.
