Subject: Hexen Floor_Waggle arguments?
Hi there.
I'm putting the finishing touches on WadAuthor v1.11, and I'm wondering if
anyone knows what the arguments to the Floor_Waggle special mean? Thanks in
advance.

Hi everyone, just a few quirks and queries in Hexen:
Can you use waggling floors and earthwuakes as independent lines, not just
in scripts?
Has anyone got NWT working with the full Hexen IWAD?
Has anyone noticed the HOM in level 1?
In some places it is said that you can have levels up to 63 and thats it, but
what about making a new MAPINFO that make's any levels you want?
While on the subject of MAPINFO, there's some pretty weird level refs in
there, look:

Haven't tried waggling floors, but I know that earthquakes work for THING
and LINEDEF specials.
> Has anyone noticed the HOM in level 1?
Do you mean the one right before you get to the emerald-key door if you're
facing sideways you can see it? ie Emerald-key door is off to your left and
you face up to where 5 discs of repulsion ("chaos devices") are.

Most of these are not used in the game, however if you know the warptrans
number, you can either visitxx or -warp xx using the warptrans number, as
long as the number after the map is an entry in the wad. I think.

I realise this is off-topic, but does anyone know of any public news
servers in the Pennsylvania area? My school won't let you post with an
external viewer, and the VAX sux for editing... So, I need a public server
that will let me post without an account..... Thanks a lot....
