Recommended Posts

hello all, im a new doomer to this internet site, and to the doom editing world, i have been a doom fan downloading cool new doom stuff for years, and i have made a few of my own levels before, but now i want to make a multi-level wad with new graphics. can anyone give me some information on where to get a really good doom graphics editor that works, i have downloaded many versions of doom 2 graphics editors but when i have installed them they dont work. and generally any other tips would help.

Welcome to the forums new doomer.
About the editor-if You're looking something to make graphics with I suggest You visit:
Decide which fits You best. The latter ones are freeware, but the last 2 are on japaneese sites, so You can have some minor trouble :)

Dude, if you ever want to export or import any sprites/textures/sounds/music you need to get WinTex.
It's the best multipurpose tool there is... IMO, hands down.
If you are missing the VisualBasic .DLL which is required to make it work, then ask me and I could e-mail it to you as an attachment.

"Have You released any of Your levels? Looking forward to play them."

well i havent released any, but i found that this site has a level program, the id games archieves. and well i have to get all of em together, alot of them are pretty basic, but the latest one i made is called ground zero, and its a huge city, it takes even me, about 30 min to beat the level, (and i know all the secret areas and important areas) :D

First of all, start with something simple (e.g. one smallish wad with a few new graphics), and work up from that. Don't start off with the aim of creating a megawad or a TC.

While it's in progress, you can place information about it at WADs In Progress.

Once it's ready to be released, you can upload it to the archive. Some instructions here.

You'll find a lot of useful general information here.

Don't get wintex get XWE.It does so much more.Doom builder is the best map editor out there if you can run it

What? They are two different people.

Yeah, but

"new doomer"

"doomdude_15"

Obvious coincidence?

Still, having the same name of a known vet around here will drive some nuts.
