Man I guess I just read that way too fast or something, I completely misinterpreted it. Using Ultimate Doom Builder I converted it pretty fast, and I like the episodic format much better for pacing. I would mess with stuff to get it working in doom 2 or get the missing textures from D2 but this is my first wad* and I want to keep it simple stupid for now.
thanks, I'll go check out cc4-tex!
I think my question has been answered. I'll leave the page up incase anyone else is going to ask the same thing. when/if I finish the wad I'll upload a link to the final product if I'm satisfied with it.
Thanks for the help everyone!
* I have made about 3 wads, but they all sucked and where mostly to learn the basics of modding.
