Doom Builder won't let me test map.

[Retro Dino]

I just downloaded doom builder and i was following the tutorial on the offical website, then he came to a part that said test map. I clicked test map and it loaded, but it just loaded regular doom. It didn't load the start screen or anything either. I was using GZDoom, but then i went online and read a form and someone said to use just ZDoom, so i did and i get the same result. I then found another steam discussion and someone had the same problem as me and the first response said that it only works for Doom 2. So do i have to buy a whole new game just to make a WAD? >.> if so then i basically wasted my money on buying Ultimate Doom. Someone help!

I had the same problem but is use another port.

Click Test map, it will bring you to the normal game, load a map and when is loaded open the console and type Map Map01 (Assuming that your map is called Map01)

It worked but i had to delte the WAD I was working on, i guess there was something wrong with it or something idk because i made a new one and built one sector and just threw some stuff in it and it loaded! So thank you! :)

Hey a guy on Doom World told me that Map01 is the Doom2 format.. you need yo call your level E1M1 (episode 1 Mission 1) that is almost the same thing. And if you call your level e1m1 the builder will load directly your map
