This is a cool tool. I like how it's easy to use and the fact this isn't some Windows-only code that relies on all MSVC redistributables imaginable. There's no Linux build (and the WIndows build doesn't work in WINE), but you can compile it yourself (it took 26 minutes on my potato).

However, there's room for improvement.
1. The resulting skins seem to be affected by Doom's 1.333... pixel stretch, and the results also look stretched.
2. It would be cool if the skins could actually become 3D models, because it's kinda expected that skins from a 3D game don't become 2D.
3. You should add Tag "$FIST" to the Fists_1 DECORATE actor, and add [enu default] <NEWLINE GOES HERE> FIST= "Fist"; to a newly created LANGUAGE lump.

Thanks for the feedback! I noticed the pixel stretching and I'll find a way to fix that when I get the time. I think I'm gonna keep the 2D sprites, because I just think that fits better, but I could add an option for 3D models later on. I'll definitely add your last suggestion too.
