The difference between Doom and Strife's texture format

This has been bothering me for a while now. Whats the difference between Doom and Strife's texture format?

Is there a difference?

AFAIK the only difference is Strife's palette, and that's not a difference in the format.

The texture format is the same but Strife uses a compressed form of the structure that defines a single texture (Doom had some unused fields in it.

Here are the respective definitions from ZDoom's source. I hope they can help you.

typedef struct
{
	short	originx;
	short	originy;
	short	patch;
	short	unused1;
	short	unused2;
} mappatch_t;

typedef struct
{
	char		name[8];
        DWORD           unused;
	short		width;
	short		height;
	byte		columndirectory[4];	// OBSOLETE
	short		patchcount;
	mappatch_t	patches[1];
} maptexture_t;


typedef struct
{
	short	originx;
	short	originy;
	short	patch;
} strifemappatch_t;

//
// A wall texture is a list of patches which are to be combined in a
// predefined order.
//
typedef struct
{
	char		name[8];
        DWORD           unused;
	short		width;
	short		height;
	short		patchcount;
	strifemappatch_t	patches[1];
} strifemaptexture_t;
