Mark a linedef. Hit F10.

The nodes builder has (new?) bugs since deu5bet5 I think.

It just got moved. Instead of being option 8 under Edit Linedef, now
it's option 4 (I think) under the F10 key. I agree it's wonderful.

I gave up on -fc and went back to mode 0 where my own mouse works.

Their new nodes algorithm is bad. I suggest that you keep your copy of
the Beta 4 EXE file (saved as DEU5B4.EXE, for example) and run it on
your completed level when you're ready to test clipping. (Move a vertex
and save for the reuild.) If you still have weirdness after that, it's
probably your design.

o The fakecursor for the higher resolutions works, but when it switches
modes for the texture selector and then switches back, you get the real
cursor and the fakecursor and it starts leaving behind trails that screw
the screen all to hell.
Havent had that problem. Ive got a ATI VGA WONDER XL24 card with VESA TSR
loaded and Logitech Mouse Driver v6.30
o Levels I made with it just didn't look right. I could see through
floors into next rooms, was falling through floors, etc...
I had the problem, but unzip deututor.zip thats included with deu 5.0 and
read over the tutorial!

Push F9 and select it from the menu.

My version of DEU doesn't change screen modes when using VESA.
Don't run with fakecursor=true when using the standard video mode.

Get BSP v1.0 to sort out those until the next 'fixed' version of DEU.

That's something I couldn't manage!

hi. I just decided to get deu5 to edit maps even though i'm not too sure of
my ability. but as soon as i tried to start it, i get an error opening
"doom.wad" is this because i used RanDoom? i did undo the changes it made
before i tried to run deu.
Craig Wendland
that's probably the problem because I'm pretty sure Deu 5.0 doesn't work
with it.
As for it working with Randoom, I sure as heck hope it would. It should
not make any difference (I think) because all randoom does is randomize or
weight items and monsters and you can change both of these with Deu 5.0
Did you try getting another copy of Deu 5.0 from ocf.unt.edu or any other
sites? Did you try altering the level with any other Doom editors?
or... if absolutely necessary... did you try reinstalling doom?
Which version of doom do you have? If you have 1.1 upgrade to 1.2.
I got deu 5.0 to work fine the first time through, so it should work.
