so i am making a doom level set,

[Mofreak08]

and i couldnt get it to go to the next level, so is it ok to use the base doom 2 wad and remake the levels?

Linedef action 11 i think is action button press exit level and, no: not if youre planning to upload it anywhere without people laughing at you - here and at other places. Also editing the base doom 2 iwad is nothing you should do if you don't know how to reset its iwad (internal wad) status, because iwad status what makes the base doom 2 iwad special and idenifiable automatically by any modern engine. The opposite is called a pwad (player wad) which are maps made in an editor while it is using the iwad as a reference (to grab textures, sounds etc) without changing its content. Pwads are then uploaded to the archives.

 

To top it of, the base doom 2 iwad is still a commercial product believe it or not.

 

In short, treat the base doom 2 iwad like your pension money fund, don't touch it for an other 30 years and definitely don't make it accessible to anybody else.
