custom textures

is it possible to create custom textures for DB?

Yes.

how?

Doom Builder?

ya, download XWE, get you some textures of the right sizes I.E. 128x128 and the like, double click on Patches, and add away...

...that's a blunt start anyhow.

yes, i use doom builder, but what i tried to do was draw my texture in paint and load it into doom builder that way, but it didn't work. i hit import texture and it replaced it with an over head view of my map.

...so i don't have a custom texture anymore. however i will try your idea

First. you create part of the map.
Then you save it, and open it up with XWE.
Click patches, and then go to entry>load> whatever picture you want.

Keep in mind though, that unless you're using Zdoom, the picture will have to be the same size as other doom textures, mainly 64x128, 256x128, 128x128, etc.

Thanks

Where or how do i get XWE?

XWE's forums are hosted on Doomworld so it isn't that hard to find
