Ok, not damnit DeHacked, but damnit myself. How do you convert the changes you make in DeHacked into your own WAD? I want to be able to make my own guns and enemies, but I can only test them out in that Doomhack.exe file it creates for you. I want to be able to put those changes in my WAD. Any help? Oh, I'm an idiot so please explain it to me as if I were a **** -bathing baby.

This asumes your using Legacy:

-After you've made your changes in DeHackEd save them.
-Exit out of DeHackEd and there should be a folder called patches
-In that folder in the file you saved, it should have a .deh after it's name
-Then you load that file, along with your Wad, in Legacy.

Like so,

legacy -deh whatever.deh -file whatever.wad

Cool, I got it to work with Legacy, but is there a way to use it with Edge or even JDoom? I'm having sound problems with Legacy (The sound effects are kinda crumbled and you can't understand them, and the MIDI is lower quality than it is outside playing the game), so my main port is mainly Edge...that is, unless I can somehow fix the sound problem in Legacy. Edge has no music which sucks, and JDoom is perfect, but it freezes my games a lot. So Legacy would be very good if I could somehow fix the sound problem. http://forums.newdoom.com/ubb/smilies/cwm43.gif

Nope, no dehacked support in either Jdoom or EDGE. Have you taken a look at editing EDGE's DDF files though? Once you start, I promise you'll never use DEHACKED again.

But EDGE doesn't have slopes. http://forums.newdoom.com/ubb/frown.gif

How do you edit Edge's DDF files? There's a zip that came with Edge called edge-ddf-docs-1.1, but after I unzipped it, it's just a bunch of webpages from their site.

You can run dehacked files with any port, just use this for a command line and make sure Dehaced.exe is in the doom DIR

c:\doom\jdoom.exe -file your.wad your.exe
c:\doom\zdoom.exe -file your.wad your.exe
c:\doom\edge.exe -file your.wad your.exe
bla bla http://forums.newdoom.com/ubb/smile.gif

But I think I will look at Edge's DDF files thou...... http://forums.newdoom.com/ubb/smilies/cwm4.gif

Wouldn't it be heaven if Legacy or Zdoom made DDF files? Phuck Dehacked out the window! I want to rip through Legacy's guts while munching on Zdooms Weapon data-base!

There should be another zip thats full of .ddf files, an .ldf and a .scr file. You can edit all of these files with notepad in windows or the DOS text editor. Don't use any word proccessing programs cuz they have to stay nice clean text files.

Those webpages are the help files (and they are AWESOME, if slightly incomplete). You can kinda figure out what everything means just by reading through the ddf file. It's all pretty simple. Right at the beginning it seems really wierd but once you get the hang of it it's so simple.

And if you make a mistake in you DDF file, it'll crash on startup and tell you exactly where in your file you screwed up. It's great!

Dehacked files work in JDOOM? I thought it said somewhere on the homepage that strange things happen when you try. Maybe I read wrong.

There is a zip called edge-ddf-2.0, but all that seems to be contained in it is a screen saver file. It doesn't even create a new folder under the C:\unzipped directory, or really doesn't do anything at all.
