Question on condensing a wad

[Borg]

I have a 10 map wad that I want to cut down to 6 maps. I want to remove the first 4. They are all done in BD2, ZDoom in Doom. Doom2 is my resource.

I want to keep all the same music, textures, MAPINFO and such.

I'm not sure how to go about it. Seems like it should be pretty simple. Maybe it's not.

Get the program Slade and open the wad with it. Find the lumps that pertain to Maps 1 - 4 and delete them. This won't remove the MAPINFO or music, but you'll have clean them up and rename some things if you want Map05 to be the new Map01.

So delete the lumps for 1-4 including the markers? and rename the markers for 5-10 to 1-6?

Sounds easy enough.

Yep! Make sure to delete all the lumps under the markers too, you don't want random blockmaps or things lumps floating around in there. Hope this helped!

Holy crap! That was easy. I didn't need you!

Just kidding thanks.

I did the same in MAPINFO. Deleted the first 4 and then renamed. Worked perfectly.

Thanks again.
