Map Editor

Features

• Support for Doom, Hexen and UDMF format maps
• 'Split' game configuration system - just select a game and a port, no long list of 'ZDoom + Doom 2', 'ZDoom + Doom 1' etc. configs
• Syncs up with the resource editor - changed a texture? it'll update in the map editor
• Nice looking, smoothly animated 2d map editor view
  • Textured sectors
  • Filled sector hilight/selection (optional)
  • Multiple thing view styles
• Advanced line drawing feature (default key Space):
  • Can draw lines overlapping or splitting other lines
  • On finishing line draw, sectors are automatically built, no need to play around with sector references
• Shape drawing feature (default key Shift+Space):
  • Same advantages as line drawing, allows for faster drawing of simple shapes, eg. draw a rectangle with 2 clicks instead of 5
  • Currently supports square/rectangle and circle/ellipse shapes, with more simple shapes to come in future versions
• 'Object Edit' feature, similar to DB2's edit mode (default key E)
  • Move and scale by dragging the edit box from the middle or edges
  • Rotate by holding ctrl and dragging the edit box corners
  • A bar will show at the bottom of the window allowing manual entry of offset/scale/rotation values
• 3d editing mode
  • No need to build nodes
  • Allows unlimited view distance (not recommended on old hardware and/or very complex maps)
  • Correct Doom aspect ratio for a more accurate preview of what the map will look like in-game
  • Walls/flats/things can be selected and deselected, allows editing multiple objects at once
  • Shift+click to 'flood-select' similar adjacent walls/flats
• Support for advanced port features:
  • ZDoom UDMF enhancements
    • Sector colouring preview in 2d/3d modes
    • Flat scaling, offsets and rotation preview in 2d/3d modes
  • ZDoom DECORATE thing definitions support
