Doom itself, though, will treat light levels like 136 as either 128 or 144 (I forget whether it rounds up or down).

ZDoom and Eternity, afaik, are the only software-rendered ports that can distinguish between light levels in smaller increments than 16.

Gonna have to learn the new shortcuts though... Can't use rmb to scroll accross the level which is annoying... Copying and pasting textures must use a new shortcut as well. Why does my resource wad show IWAD textures when I have only the resource WAD selected in the texture browser? I was really looking forward to getting rid of the Doom2 textures clogging up the list of textures I will actually use. Also, is it true you can't raise/lower sectors with any shortcut key? I will dearly miss that if true, and can't imagine why it wouldn't be in there.

DB2's preset lighting levels depend on the sourceport you're editing for.

I always thought light levels "round off" sooner or later depending upon their number value as you get close, indeed making it have an effect.

Is this not true?

No it's not, in Vanilla light level 143 is exactly the same as 128, 175 is exactly the same as 160 etc etc..

256 should be the next highest incrememt, but that's not available

Since it's stored as an unsigned short value in the map, you could theoretically put a light level value of 65535.

I must say DB2 is a really impressive piece of software. Big thanks to CodeImp & the crew for such an awesome release!

I have only one minor gripe so far. IMO linedef, sector and thing selections from the 2D mode should carry over to the 3D mode and vice versa. If there's a specific reason why this doesn't happen already, I'd very much like to hear it.

There seems to be an error in the Boom game configuration that causes a crash when you use Colormaps (between C_START and C_END). Here is a fixed game config: http://doombuilder.com/files/db2_1072_boom_config.zip
I will make sure that this is included in the next version ofcourse.

Hopefully Doom Builder 2 will attract more mappers, or get retired mappers interested again who have stopped mapping long ago.

Maybe start an project where mappers are only allowed to use Doom Builder 2 for their maps, I was thinking about this for an couple of times.

While Doom Builder 2 has many neat features i can't think of anything that can't be done with Doom builder 1 or some other program

What is so great about Doom Builder 2 is that making maps now takes a shorter a amount of time and is more fun to use and that's it.
