Would someone mind posting a "comprehensive" listing of available editors
with relative strengths and weaknesses?

You might have too many two-sided lines in view. This sometimes
produces HOM.

Subject: Sky problem
I think I've found a bug in DOOM ][ (might have been posted while
ago b4 I came). I'm working on an episode which go with the plot that
you escape to earth after level 11, and the sky changes to a city.
But if I beat level 11 and continue to level 12, the sky does not
change. It stays as a cloudy sky. If I warp there, it's the city
sky. what's happening?

PLEASE: This list is not the place for editor comparisons. Check the
posting guidelines you received when you subscribed. For this sort of
information, check out the various WWW pages on the subject, all accessible
from DOOMgate (http://doomgate.cs.buffalo.edu).
If any-one has such a comparison, please feel free to mail it direct to the
original enquirer (spockto@netdepot.com) *not* to this list--it is likely
to spark off the usual editor-war postings that we would rather not have
here.
Thanks

So far I have tried the "Deep Water Effect" and the "Door on top of lift".
I haven't tried the invisible areas yet.

Y'know, I just noticed this `jeez-how-could-they-let-this-one-slip-by?!'
bug, which is (as far as I know) limited to version 1.9, a couple of days
ago. (Been doing the `edit-warp-edit-warp-edit-warp' routine for so
long...) As far as I can tell, if you start playing Doom II from any level
to the end, the sky will never change! And this is in the `final' version
1.9, too! (I know that programming this game must have itself been
hellish, but come *on*...)
What are we supposed to do to alleviate this? Frankly, I don't
know...

Subject: LMPs in and out of WADs
I'm currently working on a WAD (Which I think is just about done) but
I've come across a problem. I want to insert an LMP into the WAD file
itself to avoid having an external demo, but every time I insert one, it
becomes slightly corrupt. If I then take the LMP back out and run it as
a separate file, the LMP runs correctly. I've tried inserting the LMP
using both WadMaster 1.01b and NewWadTools 1.3 and both have the same
problem. I've seen other wads with demos in them that work, so I don't
understand why it plays slightly different when inside the WAD file. Any
help would be very much appreciated.

Subject: Re: LMPs in and out of WADs
I am having a similar problem. I am creating a Wad in which I want to have a
demo be part of the play. When a player destroys a certain monster, I want
to autostart a Lmp so what you see is a cutsene of sorts. I can't sem to
figure out how to do this. I am sorry if this is a newbie question or has
been covered before.
