And how do I use it? When I start the EXE all I get is 'Thank you for using SLADE' and it aborts immediately.

You have to set up the paths to your IWADs in the game configurations (like ZETH). I'm sure I wrote that in the text file

Edit: Heh, oops, looks like I forgot to uncomment the messagebox code. It should have come up with an error message

Doesn't help. Even after setting the path it doesn't load.

...needs a Win32 GUI!

Depending on how complex the command line structure is. I could probably easily write a GUI for this...

This and maybe gruber's heightmap thingy

Definitely. A DEU like command prompt is soooo stone age.

Even DEU5.2 was more advanced

WOAH... this is totally cool looking...

Well, guess what, a win32 gui isn't gonna happen (unless I dump cross-platform compatibility). I don't see whats wrong with the prompt anyway, all you have to do is type 2-3 commands at most (a gui you'd have to make more clicks I'm sure).

Graf: Try re-downloading it, I enabled the error messages again and reuploaded.

BioHazard: Heh, I actually meant to add support for command line parameters a while ago. Seems I forgot about it though

They'll be in the next version

SLADE is a cool editor... gets my approval.

I think I stay with DoomBuilder.

This concerns also the cfg! It would be much more easier to handle. Then just add an other gui, not win based but something else!

Wow, constructive criticism for once!

Well next version will have command line parameters, and I'll have a go at writing a launcher for it in VB or something...
