Yes.. It's another one of those completely awesome source ports. The one which is most widely used for editing!

Okay.. I have a stupid question for anyone who knows even a little bit about ACS/ZDoom.

How do you use ACC?

Well, first of all, I hope you have a script written in ACS already. The filename doesn't really matter. Run acc with the filename as the argument. It should output a hxscript.o file, or something similarly named with an .o extension. If something was wrong with your script, the compilation process will halt and it will tell you the error. If all goes well, insert the .o file into your Wad with Wintex, XWE, or Deepsea, as a BEHAVIOR lump after the MAP## lump the script is for. If you only have MAP01 in your Wad file, it should work as the last lump.

Give Wauthor a try. There is an ACS module for this editor. So you can edit ACS within the leveleditor. That make it easy to use scripting.
Unfortunately i don't know, if there is a way to register Wauthor. I hope.

Do you know of any other scripting languages supported by Doom ports?

Legacy has fragglescript and is implementing ACS too.

Coo'. Does ZDoom support any othe scripting languages? Or does it only do ACS?

(By the way, is fragglescript hard? Or is ACS harder than fragglescript? )

ACS has more to it, but FS has some very useful functions which ACS doesn't. ACS has working arrays, which is a significant advantage.

Both are quite easy to learn at the end of the day, if you go step by step. Plus the fact that there's always people around who will help you with anything you might want to do.

ZDoom only has ACS since that is what Hexen uses. If you ever need help with fragglescript there are plent of people in the Legacy forums that will help you.
