** EdMap v1.30 released **
Jeff Rabenhorst
EdMap
version 1.30
DOOM/DOOM-II/HERETIC
DOS based Map Editor
This software package enables users to create or modify maps used in
original DOOM and DOOM II:Hell on Earth, by id Software, and HERETIC,
by Raven Software for id Software. ...
*** Improvements new to v1.30
HERETIC support!
much better viewer; faster! bugs fixed!
more multiple-selection (INS and DEL) control: sector split,
merge, select supporting objects, multiple vertex break, etc.
much better texture aligning; not bound to sector, adjusts X and Y offsets.
more checking, checking options panel in preferences.
new vertex info bar; enter LineDef lengths.
cleaner algorithms & main data structure routines (faster??)
better memory management (more free memory??)
all data compiled from included text files; edit TXTs for your own descriptions,
EdMap will automatically rebuild outdated files.
more colorful map display: colored action LineDefs, 2-S LDs always grey, etc.
pro-mode panels for byte-/bit-wise editing any object. (press space bar)
many improvements

Like EdMap? Give it to a friend (who has a reg'd copy of DOOM, DOOM-II,
or HERETIC). Don't like it? Tell me what to improve.

I just got 1.30 and after 12 hours I have yet to use it.
First of all when I installed it I couldent correctly get edmapcfg.exe to
work,
When it asked for the edmap files location I would tell it the
directory..but it would say files not found (actslist.dat textindx.dat
ect).
So i had to manually creat them.
Then when I got it running (edmap.exe) I could play a .wad I had made with
v1.23b..PROVIVDING I did not modify it at all...and I could not play a
simple .wad made with v.1.30 at all. I would get a crash adress list 2
screens long. AND when I exited from a .wad that I could play through the
program the program crashed with a runtime error 003 at 3196:366b.
I noticed that v.1.30 doesnt seem to even build the map anymore...I got no
creating nodes,sectors,vertices or a rejects list or any thing..all i got
when I tried to play was 'building map...error this and error that...then
it went to dooms start up..and promptly crashed before the game could
initialize.
I am a huge fan of edmap and would love some
asssistance....Mr.Rabenhorst?
