How do i add sprites to a custom WAD

[MaxineTrotsky]

I am somewhat new to doom modding. I have made a few maps. I wanted to ask how i could add a new weapon sprite. I have made a sprite for the bfg. I looked around and found some things already. But how does one add it to a map

You can use Slade3 to look in Doom2.wad and find the sprite names for the sprites you wish to replace.

 

After doing that, Open the wad you’ve made in Slade3 and import your custom sprites, using the same names for each frame as is used in Doom2.wad. Make sure they are between markers called SS_START and SS_END. You may have to realign the sprites but this should work if you’re using any semi advanced source port.
