Doom dude Posted March 29, 2018 hi, help me up here guys with the help of the forum, i managed to make a .wad containing some custom sprites for the map i'm making, but now i want to merge both the map and the custom sprites into one, so i can upload it without having to upload more than 1 wad. how can i do this? 0 Share this post Link to post
Misty Posted March 29, 2018 Well, first you need open your map in slade and custom sprites. Below you need create new entries in your map(below last map lump) S_START and S_END and include your sprites between those entries. Don't forget include DECORATE(if you use zdoom stuff) or DEHACKED lumps(for boom or vanilla). 0 Share this post Link to post

Misty Posted March 29, 2018 They must be in your wad, not in Doom 2 iwad. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doom dude Posted March 29, 2018 Just now, Myst.Haruko said: They must be in your wad, not in Doom 2 iwad. i'm not understanding. the entries to the custom stuff are already there. i just open the map on slade and thats it? 0 Share this post Link to post
Misty Posted March 29, 2018 I mean, those sprites must be in your wad, copy-pasted from resources. Like in screenshot(I just replaced some stuff, because I work with boom): 0 Share this post Link to post

Like in screenshot(I just replaced some stuff, because I work with boom): i think i got it, the vanilla stuff will be loaded outside of the wad, so i dont have to include every single monster/texture/sprite etc on it, just the info for the map 0 Share this post Link to post
Misty Posted March 29, 2018 If you want custom textures/sprites/music to appear on your wad, you must merge resources in one in your map. Copy and paste content between respective entries below last map lump. 0 Share this post Link to post
Misty Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Sorry for double post. PP_START and PP_END is for textures FF_START and FF_END is for flats S_START and S_END for sprites(in some cases you need DECORATE or DEHACKED) For music replacement you need replace music lump like D_RUNNIN or D_ROMERO For more information you can dig Doom wiki or zdoom wiki sites and open megawads to see how they done that. 0 Share this post Link to post

Misty Posted March 29, 2018 Yes. You can put wad here if you need be sure if you did everything right. 1 Share this post Link to post
