Yes. Try WARM11.ZIP. Fast and also builds the reject table.

I'm kinda curious how many people they have on their team as well. I
remember something John Romero (I think) said, about how more people on a
project won't get it out any faster. I'd have to say it's right. It's
even seemed to slow they down a lot.

DMapEdit also has the full source available (only with official releases,
though. If you really want the current beta source, you can mail me,
though). To the best of my knowledge, only DEU and DMapEdit have the full
source available (map editors, anyway).

I believe that there may be a bug in EMU387. I have used the
nodebuilders on a machine with a co-processor and they work fine
but on my machine without a co-processor they generate bad wads.
I suggest that anyone with this problem try getting the file
wmemu112.zip which is a replacement emu387 which works fine in my
experience. The file is available in the DJGPP directory on simtel-20
mirror sites.

I've used BSP11tc without any problems. As for speed, they're all
slow on a 486sx once the level gets big.
