mustafa saed Posted July 3, 2002 do anyone know what editor the team who made darken2 use? cause some of there maps han an insane amount of linedefs cause when i use doomcad6.1 and have up to 2400 linedef and then build the nodes and stuff it would take you over almost an hour to wait for it to be done! i know about deepsea and wadthor i just like doomcad! 0 Share this post Link to post

Open Darken2.txt or readme.txt or whatever it's called. Specific information about all that kind of stuff lies there. 0 Share this post Link to post
Biffy Posted July 3, 2002 Node building does not generally take anything close to an hour, even on large wads like that. Maybe it's the reject map being built which takes so long....does Doomcad build the reject map, and is there a way to switch that off until the last build? There was recent discussion about this aspect of WARM, a great node builder which by default does the reject map too. There are command line switches to supress reject building, or to fill the table with zeroes. 0 Share this post Link to post

Biffy Posted July 3, 2002 Heh, what a list. Note that BSP shows up frequently, including for Richard Wiles who used DoomCAD 6.1. Mustafa, maybe doomcad can be set up to use an external node builder like BSP? 0 Share this post Link to post
NiGHTMARE Posted July 3, 2002 Actually, if it's a speedy nodesbuilder you're after, use DeePBSP. It's the fastest one of them all, and is also pretty good at fixing any problems. You can run it independently of DeePSea itself in case you're wondering ;) 0 Share this post Link to post

fen boi Posted July 4, 2002 I now use Deepsea, lots of handy stuff in the latest versions and fairly simple to use. Its only slowed down when I viewed one of the later millenium maps (~2Meg or something crazy like that) Lee S 0 Share this post Link to post
GooberMan Posted July 5, 2002 I'm using ZenNode for nodes building on my 12500+ linedef map, it takes about 25-30 minutes at the moment. WARM has given me the best results (read: it doesn't screw up my ZDoom polyobjects as much) out of all the nodesbuilders I've tried (BSP, DeepBSP, Zennode, and I think there was another one I tried but can't remember), but it's slow. 0 Share this post Link to post
Volte Posted July 5, 2002 I still use WADED. :P It locks up constantly and levels can't get any bigger than 650 sectors (and a certain amount of linedefs, sidedefs, etc), but I love the way you draw sectors instead of just put polygons down and manipulate them. 0 Share this post Link to post

Volte Posted July 5, 2002 Maybe I should make the switch sometime; locking up WADED is very easy and very, very annoying... 0 Share this post Link to post
