Bug #2161
Build 2002 No Data Files
0%
Description
When I opened Build 2002 on my Sony Windows 10 computer 80% of the games said no data files. Looking in the Data menu it's pointing to program files (x86). There are no data files there. I find them under Program Files.

There has been a number of file handling changes going on the recent builds, so things may have been broken in that build. Please try with newer builds.
It should be able to find your game IWADs if you specify where they are, either using ⚙ > Data Files or the dropdown menu under the Home's Packages tab.

It should be noted that Doomsday now applies stricter rules for matching which game IWADs are being used. For instance, the Registered DOOM mode can only be used if you actually have the WAD file from the registered version.
Judging by your screenshot (Capture.JPG), the missing WADs are for:- DOOM Shareware / Registered
- Heretic Shareware / Registered
- Hexen v1.0 and demos
- Chex Quest
- Doom 64 TC
Can you confirm whether or not you actually have these versions of the IWADs available?
(You can hide these unplayable games in the User Interface Settings dialog.)
