Deathmatch matches don't work (for me)

[RaviorTebu]

Hello, I'm RaviorTrebu (or Trebuchet). I've played the demo a lot in the past, and have just recently downloaded the full version.

I've tried several times to join an online Deathmatch, but it doesn't let me because I have an incorrect password or that I'm not using the right WAD.

How do I find the password for the server I want to join? Do I have to do this everytime I want to join a server for deathmatches? (the only thing that has worked for me is capture the flag). Also, how do I change my WADs?

If you use it you'll be able to see which servers have passwords and what versions they're using. Hope it helps.

EDIT: I did everything you said to do in the setup and it still doesn't work. Actually, no Mega Man games are even being held. Everytime I double-click a game, it says I have no client executable specified for Odamex.

LMFAO! I'm sorry but the thought of Odamex running Megaman 8-Bit Deathmatch to me is quite ludicrous.

You need to set your Skulltag configy thingys, ignore Odamex.

How do I do this? I click on Skulltag, and it gives me the option to browse a folder or to get Doom. For the "browse folder" option, whenever I click on my MM8BDM folder (where everything is) it says that no IWADS were in that folder and says to select the folder that contains my copy of doom.wad or doom2.wad. I don't have either of those, and if I do, I don't know where they are.

For the "get Doom" option, it says I can either buy Doom from Steam for $10 (which I am not doing) or to use FreeDoom, but whenever I click on FreeDoom, it automatically loads Internet Explorer (which I don't use, not that it matters. ^_^) but then says that Internet Explorer has stopped working (which is very much like Internet Explorer).

I don't know what to do. And still, there aren't any MM8BDM games on Doom Seeker. Just Doom2's, Freedooms, chex, and plutonia.

I'm very sorry for all the questions. I'm just having so many problems with this, and I really want to play. I had so much fun with the demo, and was very eager to play the full version. It would be very disappointing if I couldn't have death matches online like I use to.

Yeah, I did that. Three times, actually. I still have the same problems.

Are you sure you're using the latest version of DoomSeeker?

[RaviorTebu]

I downloaded it from the link that's in the tutorial thread.

On the bright side though, it seems I can play every other mode. Just not regular Deathmatch.

ALSO, I can join Deathmatches that I host. Things are looking up.
