« on: June 15, 2010, 03:13:38 AM »
For some reason I can't connect to servers, when I try to join skulltag gives me this message:

Is Doomseeker configured to look in the folder where the files are kept?

Options menu -> Configure -> File paths.

OK, you also have to point it to the folder with your IWAD (DooM2.wad).

Get Internet Doom Explorer, it's a whole lot simpler and it beats the crap out of DoomSeeker. File paths are a whole lot easier to configure, too.

Then why do some developers in Skulltag say otherwise? :x

Excuse me? How hard is it to go into options, file paths and add the path? Just go in, add a path to every location where doom wads are stored on your computer and call it a day.

Uh, i personally prefer Internet Doom Explorer (IDE), can save hosting settings, has alot of interesting abilities, though perhaps more then needed, and as long as you set the file paths, etc, what isnt too hard as is mentioned before, it should work fine and easily.

It might help if you keep your normal wads and your Iwads(like Doom) in the same folder, possibily. Aside that i'm no big expert on it, but i never had any trouble with it.

Because whenever I tried setting a file path DoomSeeker was a fucking whore and didn't detect ANYTHING
