Holy mother of God... Great work. :wub:

EDIT (potential bug): Just copied the latest SVN to my GZDoom Builder folder. Everything major works fine, but hitting "Shift+W" to 'show floors texture' also triggers 'GZDB Visual Mode' which is bound to "W" on the keyboard.

It sounds suspiciously like something on my end, but I don't have my Capslock on, or my shift key stuck, or anything else bound to either shortcut, so I just thought I'd mention it. Curious little problem, but it's not an inconvenience to me as I just changed GZDB Visual Mode to "Q."

Resetting texture offsets in visual mode (shift + r) doesn't seem to work.

Okay, this is something I have wanted for a hell of a long time, and I figure now's as good a time to request it as any: can we get a function that automatically copies used textures from external resources into your WAD? It's really irritating that I can load up all these texture packs while I'm working, but once my map is done I have to go into SLADE3 and manually copy textures one by one from three different WADs, every once in a while pausing to go back and check on which ones I actually need. Some sort of like... "Build WAD" function or something.

Fixed in r1725 (was broken in Doom/Hexen map formats).

"Shift" key is now used as a modifier key in "GZDB Visual Mode" action (it is used to control whether to take selection to/from Visual mode), so if GZDB Visual Mode is bound to "W" key, you can't bind another action to "Shift+W", and if there's already an action bound to that key combination, it will be ignored.

1. Doom Builder is not a lump management tool. Probably you should redirect this feature request to SLADE3 devs.
2. Implementing this feature can become TERRIBLY complicated when TEXTUREx and TEXTURES come into play...

Plus there is awareness of animations and switches and possibly even texture/flat changes via ACS.

Of course, all that complexity is one of the reasons why people want such a tool. ;)

Another request :)

The toolbar is being populated with a lot of icons, so that it will no longer fit a 15.6" screen.
Could it be made that the toolbar splits into two rows, when the first row is filled up when in full screen or windowed, or break it up as shown

Image
or maybe even dragged to the left or right side of the screen

When I create a new map, right away I have 4 warnings (see bottom right of previous image), because of this

Image
When I close this window, the warnings go to 0.
Just thought I should mention it.

Newsflash! (r1726)

Selected sectors (or the whole map, if no sectors are selected) can now be exported to Wavefront .obj model.

As a result, you can now do things like that easily :)

So you can also import model files? Cool, this may be what I wanted for GZDoom. Is Blender (or another free tool) supported?

Pardon me for the stupid question but I don't get how this would enhance the GZDoom mapping pipeline. What's the purpose of exporting the map into an OBJ?

About the only usefulness I can think of is that you can edit the map to have crazy shapes and reimport it back into GZDoom as an MD3 but:

1) What about collision with regards to the crazy shapes?
2) MD3 polygon limit
3) Level geometry visibility culling?
