DEATHMATCH LEVEL
The best in DOOM, DOOM II & Heretic PWADS and Utilities
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Title : id Editor
Filename : IDE.EXE
Author : SillySft
Email Address : JoeW@SillySft.com
Misc. Author Info : Author of D!
Description : This is the best DOOM/DOOM2/HERETIC editor out there.
It's a hack of DEU, (originally called HFDE,HFDE/2
and HFDE/H). I have spent the last few week recoding
much of it.
This editor is used by many of the members of -VS-
and is tops. Written in BC++ 3.1 and it runs in
real mode.
If someone would like to do a protected mode port,
email me.
Best part about this editor.. is it's completly
FREE.
*** WARNING ***
IDE is current in public beta testing. This means
there will be bugs. There is also no documentation
at present. I'm working on it. But most of it is
preaty self-explanator. I have included some quick
documentation in this file.
Additional Credits to : Ralphael Quinet and Brendon J. Wyber for creating DEU
MAL (Malsoft) for bugging me to finish this.

* Play Information *
Any.. it's an editor.. have fun.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
* QUICK DOCUMENTATION *
The really only important new command line switch is "-m <game#>" which allows
you to change the default GAME mode at start up. For example:
"-m 1" would set you to DOOM mode
"-m 2" would set you to DOOM2 mode
"-m 3" would set you to HERETIC mode
Commands in the editor:
There are new "misc" options for sectors. You can now do one of the following:
"Make Stairs from Sector": This feature will take several sectors (2 or more)
can convert them to stairs. You supply the Start heigth and the stair heigth
and IDE will do the rest. You need to select the sectors in order as if you
were walking up the stairs (ie.. select the lowest step first).
"Make Stairs from Sector with Ceiling": This is the same as above, except that
the ceiling will also raise up (inverted steps). Nice effect.
Both Make Stairs functions take care to setup the linedefs (so that they point
the right way) and assign all needed textures.
"Distribute Light" allows you to create wonderfull diminishing lighting, or
shadow effects quick and easy.
New Keys in the Editor:
Unlike DEU, there is no KEYBOARD only support.. You must use a mouse.
It works like this:
LEFT MOUSE BUTTON: Selects/deSelects an object
RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON: Moves an object
SHIFT LEFT BUTTON : Locks the current object so no others will be picked up
SHIFT RIGHT BUTTON: Deletes object.
ALT LEFT BUTTON : Selection box.
Specail keys: Most keys in IDE are the same as DEU. Here are some exceptions.
ALT 1-0 : quickly changes ZOOM mode from 1-10
SHIFT-ALT-1-0 : quickly changes ZOOM mode from 11-20
. : Splits a highlighted sector in linedef mode.
F : Flips the currently selected/highlighed linedef
CTRL-F : Flips ONLY the currently highlighted linedef
ALT-+/- : Speeds up/slows down the pickup wait time
ALT-A : Autoaligns the X textures. Allows you to pick any texture
(upper/middle/lower) on any sidedef to use define the
alignment.
