Haven't you read the Deutex manual by Kevin McGrail which is included with
all copies of Deutex and which gives a detailed answer to this question and
all other introductory questions? Anyhow..., you have to sandwich your
texture-frames between the ANIM START and ANIM END textures in TEXTURE1.TXT,
which in this case means putting your extra texture-frames between FIREBLU1
and FIREBLU2.

Hello Afree120
You probably have placed a clone of yourself in the level (another player 1
star position). When you shoot, that's the same thing as shooting yourself.
You can create some neat effects using clones. Try to place 3 or more
and go mad and shoot them all...I don't know why this happens but you'll
see that you'll become undead and walk around like a dead body in the level...

Oh really? Cool. Don't expect too much of new tricks in these Wads because
I'm not very original in those aspects(although you may find some cool
ones, they're hardly going to be new ) But! Never fear! You will get
those WADS. I'm sending you another message with them attached!
PS. I'm using edmap and deu for everything. After reading some messages in this
list I kinda guess they aren't by far the best DooM editors around... Where
can I get DoomED and DoomCAD. Are they worth it? Please give me FTP sites
and Web sites.
PS2. Oh, and, they're from DOOM I. I guess that makes the tricks even older...
but they're cool alright ; I've had plenty of messages congratulating me
for them and saying those are the best WADS they had ever played!

Hi!

Sure. Send it over. Private. :)

Load the main IWAD and mark all resources you want (changed) in your PWAD.
Mark graphics-resources, if you want to insert GIF/PCXs. Mark the sound
resources, if you want to insert WAV/VOC.
Then hit the F8 to let NWT load the GIF/WAV with the right name (you marked)
and it will put it in a PWAD of your choice.

Yeah, major point to be fixed...

Is on my list for the new version too... :)

No problem. Let me know.

Well, I went out and picked up Ultimate Doom yesterday afternoon. The
levels are excellent, And I also noticed a few things thrown in from Doom
II. There are Quickdoors in this version of Doom. Also, there are some
quickdoors that you can open and close by rapidly hitting space (much like
the normal doors) The only problems that I have with ult-doom is this - No
new Music!!! :( Also, there are a few dozen or so GIANT Hom's that I ran
across while playing throuh. Also, the new sky in the background is just
the Doom ending pictures sky (the burning city with dead bunny) So, Just to
let those that haven't picked it up yet. There isn't much new at all.
Another cool thing, On the very first level, there is a set of sectors that
Spell out NIN for Nine inch nails. I wonder if this has anything to do with
trent reznor doing the sounds for Quake?!
- -On to the editing thing-
I am not too up on the EXE for doom, so I was wondering if anybody has been
able to determine exactly what was added to the Doom EXE to create the 4th
mission, and what it would take to add mabye a 5th or a 6th? If that is
possible, Would it be too hard to add levels beyond 32 in doom II?
