Don't you wish we had DoomEd?

the sources?

Post error messages so it can be figured out.

Thanks to Catoptromancy for posting the slade2 binaries, but is where may I find the sources? I run 64bit so I always get dependency errors :/

You can get them from here or from the SVN repository tags.

*scratch that, since the websvn thing is removed, the unix source download is broken. You've gotta take it from the SVN repository. URL for the 2.0 beta tag: http://mancubus.net/svn/hosted/slade/tags/slade_20_beta

^^ all of that are my error messages, and where compiling stops. I did have to declar -fpermissive though and there was an error before because I didn't...

"If you want to compile wxWidgets or cant find the package you need wxWidgets-2.8.10.tar.gz and configure like:

$ ./configure --with-opengl"

Maybe I should rewrite my README to be a bit more specific. Wxwidgets2.8 is only for slade2, wxwidgets2.9 is only for slade3.

Will SLADE 2 compile on the Mac?

It compiles on OpenSolaris, didnt execute though. If mac supports wxwidgets, then maybe/probably.

[Reisal]

Why did this become a SLADE2/3 discussion in a thread about DoomEd?

[Technician]

I'd love to see DoomEd released for posterity's sake, but I'm sure I'd find little use for it. Doom Builder 2 is an amazing, easy to use editor.

[fraggle]

John Romero has the source code to DoomEd. I've asked him a couple of times about it and he seemed open to the possibility but never got round to it. I also contacted John Carmack about it several years ago; he didn't seem to think he had a copy of it any more.

DoomEd was written in Objective C for NeXTStep. It should theoretically be possible to port it to a modern system using GNUstep, or get it running on Mac OS X (which is derived from NeXTStep).

[Gez]

I wonder if the Heretic and especially Hexen versions of DoomEd and DoomBSP have survived. "HereticEd" was probably just the same except for the list of thing types, line types and sector effects; but "HexenEd" had to differ more than that to account for the modified thing and line formats. And of course, "HexenBSP" too.

[shadow1013]

I read some article where Raven used DoomEd, except for changing the numbers and flags for lines and whatnot, but I'm sure some relatively minor adaptations to DoomEd and DoomBSP were required to make Hexen, for polyobjects and ACS and all that

[Gez]

I don't think ACS itself would be a reason to change DoomBSP. They could always insert the BEHAVIOR lumps with something else (maybe wadlink?). PolyObjects also don't require changes, though it'd be interesting to know if they did write some code to try to help accommodate them (like Randy's ZDBSP).

But the fact that things and lines have a different format requires a change in DoomBSP; and to set these new properties they had to change DoomEd too.
