Just as long as you keep backups... XWe likes to eat files if you're not careful. :glare:

Check out WildWeasel's GunLabs. It's aimed at making guns, but what you learn about DECORATE there will carry over into making just about anything.

I hold onto XWE for basic sprite recolouring, but it's really buggy compared to SLADE; so I use that for everything else.

Why would you merge into IWAD?
With XWE, it still doesn't work for Doom.EXE! :geek:

He didn't say IWAD. He said "original WAD" and "other WAD".

Yes, why would you, considering ChronoSeth said nothing about editing an IWad?

If I had said IWAD, then I would have been talking about copying everything from the IWAD into another WAD. Even a newbie would know that doing such a thing would be pointless.

I thought original wad was Doom.wad and i assumed if he wanted to merge than it would be for DOOM.EXE.
My mistake :oops:
