### How to extract them?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each file is located in the `WADs/` folder from the step above with an ID number that you can check on the list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Example: Sigil
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sigil has the ID of `4` and is then located in the `/WADs/4/` folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Within that folder there are images and also a file without an extension just called `4`.
|
|
|
|
|
That `4` file is the `SIGIL.WAD` file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All you need to do is copy the ``/WADs/4/4` file to `retrodeck/roms/doom` then rename it `SIGIL.WAD`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Extra: Windows tips
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to move the WADs from a Windows installations instead you can use this software:
|
|
|
|
|
[Unity Doom Ripper](https://github.com/kevansevans/Unity-Doom-Ripper)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The WADs are located in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`My Documents\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM 2\WADs\`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`My Documents\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM Classic\WADs\`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then just transfer them with a USB Stick or another way to your Linux machine.
