Hi where can i get / find the correct unity nerve.wad, i have all the doom games in steam i just dont know where the wad is, or is it only in Bethesda.net? If you could direct me to the correct folder or tell me where to buy the latest version, id be grateful.
I'm not sure where to find nerve.wad in the newish Unity port, I assume it's in one of the subdirectories where other WAD files are, but the addons all require a Bethesda.net account which I don't have.
Here's a page with info on the original nerve.wad, as included with Doom 3 BFG Edition and the older console ports:
The folder you want should be at:
[path to Documents folder, excluding that folder]\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM 2\WADs\3
So, if your Documents folder is at the default location, then that location would likely be:
C:\Users\[user name]\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM 2\WADs\3
However, if your Documents folders has been moved to, say, "D:\ExtraStuff\Documents", then that location would be:
D:\ExtraStuff\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM 2\WADs\3
Once you find the folder, you should find a file simply named "3"; that's the WAD file you're looking for. Copy that file to your desired location, and then rename the copy.
Hope that helps!
(And in case it's not obvious, you do need to download No Rest for the Living within the Unity version of Doom II first.)
Thank you! You are a star! Logged into Doom 2 and downloaded the "DLC" found the Saved Games\id Software\DOOM 2\WADs\3 (which is not in the Steam\Common folder... which is where all the other .wads are for Doom 3 etc, and was the main part of the issue) found the "3" file (which I would never have guessed was the correct unity wad)... and Boom... um ... i mean and DOOM, there it is, the FULL wadsmoosh mega file, no errors, perfection!
