In a Doom II wad, massacre.zip (ftp.cdrom.com), there is a floating cube
in it. Perhaps that might be what you're looking for.

If my memory is correct, I think there is a palette in the Doom.wad,
if so, you could extract using either DeuTex or NWT.

Subject: Sprites...

Since no-one seems to be helping me (remember, the person that wants to make a
single view object multi-view, and posted twice with one responce?), I went
out and checked the heretic.exe to look for patterns. Well, it seems that
most of the objects that have only one view all have a certain extension in
front of them, and almost all of them have a combination of x, s, or f in hex.

Do these have anything to do with views? Nothing is working, and people on
this list are ignoring me and my sprite problem. I'm starting to get
exasperated.

Which version and wich doom? In Doom ][, v.1.666, I've had a Former
Commando tele-frag me before. Either that or I'm seeing things. (Whoah,
been playing Doom for too many hours in a row.)

You might want to check out these:

Yeah, I'm sure you've been playing doom for too many hours in a row. So
have I, so has probably just about anyone on this list. But I will vouch
for the fact that monsters CAN telefrag the player, it happened to me once too.

There is another thing that I found out about "teleportation" deaths. I
was playing DOOM ][ today, level 30. I'm walking around and all of a sudden
an arachnotron spawns in... right over me... and I hear that lovely
wet'n'crunchy sound and I die-- from 200% health, 200% armor. Ow. Of course,
that isn't to say this happens very often, but it happens.

Avoid the Boss Spawn Spots. Monsters appear there. It can kill you even
in iddqd

Didn't notice former posts.. either way, you'd have to insert
directories in to the EXE and a WAD to do this.. haven't tried it myself (I
know it'd be difficult, though).
