I believe you can.

You can use Decorate with any of those formats actually.

Decorate is independant of the map format. AFAIK, the only things Hexen format allows are TID numbers, arguments on line specials and possibly scripting support (though I think a BEHAVIOR lump would be loaded for a non-Hexen format map anyway).

HotWax: ZDoom uses the presence BEHAVIOR lump to differentiate between Doom format maps and Hexen format maps. Bolting on a BEHAVIOR lump to a Doom format map would probabally cause the game to crash.

Actually, it just doesn't run the scripts IIRC. I tried it at some point or another, and I don't remember any big crashes. Just a lack of running. Might have crashed when it went to the script, come to think of it.

i have another problem with the heretic in hexen format. does this format support animdef? because i attempted to create a new switch and it didn't works.

ANIMDEFS is independent of the map format.

Post the appropriate section of the lump and we'll help figure out what's wrong.

excuse me, i saw my error in the animdef and the problem was that i had the pics badly defined, but i have a question dependantly of the format and only related with the animdef. why is the sound in my switch that i made NOT work and only uses in which the Iwad brings? if the sound that i want when you touch the switch is inside the Pwad, why isn't it working? and for the last question, how do you define the sndinfo for the animated doors?

Not to but in with the current thread, but i'm having the same problem, I know what I have to do now, but How can this be done? and could the same thing be applied to the GZDoom format? >_>;.

returning to the topic, how do i add my own sounds to my switches in the animdef if they are in the wad? also, how do i define in SNDINFO the sound for the door animated?

Have a look at the ANIMDEFS lump that comes wiith ZDoom itself. The switch definitions for Hexen and Strife, and animated doors for Strife all include sounds.
