Package: doomsday Version: 1.14.5-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi there,
in its current form, the doosday-compat script does not set a gamemode by default. This means, if started without an additional "-iwad" or "-game" argument (but even with an additional "-file" argument) the game falls back into its Ring-0 mode instead of starting an actual game. In contrast, every other doom engine falls back to starting Doom 2 when no other argument is given. Since the very purpose of the doomsday-compat script is to emulate the command line behaviour of "every other doom engine", I had to modify it accordingly. That is, I have set the gamemode variable from an empty string to "doom2". Since this will not set the iwadpath variable, I had to add some more logic to the final part of the script. Please note that this will also significantly facilitate creating packages for PWADs with game-data-packager, since this calls "doom -file /path/to/pwad" in the desktop files.
