When you receive the error message "W_GetNumForName: PNAMES not found", it means JDoom hasn't found your Doom.wad (or any of the other recognized IWADs). What you need to do is use the -file or -iwad option to tell the game where to load the wad, for instance: "jdoom -file d:\games\doom\doom.wad".

If you want to specify Doom, Ultimate Doom, Doom2, or Shareware Doom use -Doom, -Ultimate, -Doom2 and -SDoom respectively and this will load the correct IWAD.

e.g.: doomsday -game jdoom.dll -gl drOpenGL.dll -ultimate -maxzone 16m
