Quick question about Doom Builder.

[Obsidian]

Is there a way to change ceiling textures in-game? Say I wanted the ceiling on a part of my map to raise and assume the texture of the surrounding ceiling. Is this possible?

If you were to map for ZDoom (Doom in Hexen format) or related ports, then you could use

http://zdoom.org/wiki/Ceiling_RaiseByValue
http://zdoom.org/wiki/ChangeCeiling
http://zdoom.org/wiki/ReplaceTextures

in a script.

Oh, scripts.

OP: why not sure right click on the sector you want to alter and change it like you would a linedef?

I get the feeling I'm missing something.

He's wanting the ceiling texture to be one texture and then some event causing it to change to something else. I suspect like how a donut changes the affected sector's floor flat when it lowers or whatever.

As Kappes said, gonna have to use scripts.

Well, yes.
Once in-game, the only way to change something like that is with scripts.

A bit of an example.
After some delay, raises/changes the ceiling, changes the wall textures and the floor.

Ignore all posters above. This is a Boom feature. No need for scripts.
