Editors
- For WAD editing get SLADE v3.0.1 or later.
- Download and install Visual C++ 2010 runtimes, found at the bottom of the Downloads page, if you haven't done so already. SLADE will not run otherwise.
- For EXE editing get HxD, a free hex editor.
Changing the sound
The following replaces the sound prB+ plays when you enter a sector with the secret special with the sound of items respawning in Deathmatch 2.0 (-altdeath). If you want to use another sound instead, skip steps 1-5.
1) Open any IWAD (DOOM.WAD, DOOM2.WAD, TNT.WAD or PLUTONIA.WAD) in SLADE.
2) Type dsi into the Filter box located below the WAD's Entries list
3) Two entries will be displayed. DSITMBK is the one we want.
4) Right-click on the DSITMBK entry and choose Export.
5) Save the entry to DSITMBK.lmp (the default) and note where you saved it.
6) Open prboom-plus.wad (found in your prB+ folder) in SLADE.
7) Type dss into the Filter box. This brings up the DSSECRET entry.
8) Right-click on the DSSECRET entry and choose Import
9) A dialog box comes up. Find the file you saved in step 5 and (double-)click it.
10) Save the change - File menu -> Save
Changing the message
The following changes the "A secret is revealed!" message displayed when you enter a secret to simply "secret". Note that although the tutorial deals with glboom-plus.exe, the same steps can be used with prboom-plus.exe.
1) Open glboom-plus.exe in HxD (e.g. by dragging the .exe from Windoze Explorer and dropping it into the HxD window)
2) Go to Search menu -> Replace ...
3) Copy and paste the below into the "Search for" field:
code:
41 20 73 65 63 72 65 74 20 69 73 20 72 65 76 65 61 6C 65 64 21
4) Copy and paste the below into the "Replace with" field:
code:
20 20 20 20 20 20 20 73 65 63 72 65 74 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20
5) Change the "Datatype" drop-down box to Hex-values.
6) Set "Search direction" to All and click the "Replace all" button. You'll receive the "Replaced 1 occurences of ..." notification.
7) Save the change: File menu -> Save.
If you want no message at all but want to keep the sound, replace the code in step 4 above with this:
code:
20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20
