Fanatic Posted October 17, 2005 I have a map I did about a year ago that I finished up tonight, a plain old vanilla compatible map, and I'm looking to release it now. However, I can't use the textures that it's currently using. I need to swap them for something else, but they are on a few hundred lines and sectors. So doing it manually would suck. I tried DOOM Builder, but it crashes when I hit TAB to select another texture. Anyone know of another editor that allows you to mass swap textures in a map? 0 Share this post Link to post
Macro11_1 Posted October 17, 2005 Hmm, is some sort of texture replacer built in to DooMBuilder, "find and replace..." (ctrl + H)[while in lines eddit mode] That help any? 0 Share this post Link to post
Fanatic Posted October 17, 2005 Sweet, thanks. DOOM Builder has what I want, but it crashes when I use the feature to select another texture to use (when I hit tab). I reported the error to the developer of that editor. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fanatic Posted October 18, 2005 Actually, none of those work for me. They either crash or require old Windows 95 style OCX files. 0 Share this post Link to post
wildweasel Posted October 18, 2005 What about running them in compatibility mode (assuming you're running Windows XP or later) or Google searching for the missing file in question? 0 Share this post Link to post
Fanatic Posted October 18, 2005 Too much hassle to be honest. I was hoping for something quick and easy to give to you guys to play. 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted October 18, 2005 What about the hex editor? You can do a mass replace for each texture name that changes all the strings containing the data. Where's that h4x0r spirit?! 0 Share this post Link to post
Fanatic Posted October 19, 2005 I tried, but after saving, it hosed the file. This crummy little map was destined not to be released. Bah! 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted October 19, 2005 Maybe due to string length; if I'm not mistaken for names under 8 characters those beyond the last one must be 00 null characters. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lobo Posted October 19, 2005 Fanatic said:I tried DOOM Builder, but it crashes when I hit TAB to select another texture. This is a known bug Mark. Using DB is the easiest way of doing this, and I've done it myself many times. Workaround for bug: When the dialog with the textures opens make sure you select something BEFORE you press Tab(I usually choose the first entry, which I think is "-") This way, it will NOT crash. 0 Share this post Link to post
Xanthier Posted October 21, 2005 huh? I don't remember ever hitting tab. 0 Share this post Link to post
