It stands to reason that much of the artwork, etc, would tend
look "alike" as does most artwork by a specific artist. I can see
similarities in ALL of the doom monsters, with the possible exception of
the mutant soldiers but, even they have some "similar" facial features to
IMPS (if you look carefully) =)

P.S.: at this resolution its so hard to tell anyway

Actually, methinks it may. Why? Well, given that I'm a lowly segmented
mode scumsucker, this might be flawed, but, in 32-bit protected mode, you
deal with a lot of 32-bit numbers--in fact, your dealings are almost
exclusively 32-bit. So it follow that any div operations are gonna hafta
be fdiv, since normal div can't handle 32-bit inputs. Pentium's problem
is with the fdiv instruction, ne? So...make the connection.

Finally! Its out! YES! Beta 1 is great...it just has those usual
beta bugs. Saving doesn't work, things don't work, etc... Good work,
though. Also, the run all checks feature is great. Some suggestions
for next Beta/Release. Put the ability to type names for textures and
flats back in. The scroll bars are nice, but if you know the name of
a texture, its easier to type its name in. Also, some of the buttons
report "Not Implemented Yet", but it works. Ex: I edit sidedef 1,
change a texture, and click OK. It says "NIY", but the changes
are saved. Also, if possible, make the pull-down menus more like
Windoze and other progs. Ex: in Windoze, you click on any menu, and
drag the pointer, and the other menus are selected. Once again, great
work!
