Title is self-explanatory. It's the only file I know that lets you add altered graphics without setting the game to "ismodified", which is why I ask.
 
You'd want to? You're saying this with knowledge that you're not going to play a few netgames, right?
 
I don't understand. 3drend.dll replaces most graphics and a few headers, and I can join netgames perfectly. How is altering its graphics going to affect netplay?

Click to expand...

Has something to do with md5sum I think? especially since your editing
the main source...
 
Perhaps, but I believe you can edit music.dta freely without consequences. So initially, I assumed it could be the same for 3drend.dll.
 
I tried editing 3drend.dll with XWE and Lumpmod, but neither seemed to have found any data in it. I tried replacing 3drend.dll with a wad file, but when I tried accessing it through xmas mode, it just gave me a checksum error. Then I tried manually adding it through addfile, and it still set the game to "ismodified".



No luck thus far. :(
 
Try messing with it in a hex editor. See if you can fix the header to make it think its a wad again. I think I read somewhere on these forums that it was necessary for some secret wads.
 
The dll was successfully edited, but I still got a checksum error when booting up xmas mode. I suppose in order to load in a different file for xmas mode, you'd have to change the exe itself.

*gets to it*
