character merging into wads

[verifiaman]

How do I merge characters into my maps? If its ont the wiki, I probably wouldn't understand it. pkease help!

It's the exact same thing as any other WAD.

Just load the appropriate character lumps into the WAD with levels.

Yeah that didnt work. It made them look like they were perpetually falling
and as soon as you play as that character dor a few minutes,you get a segment violaion. How do you get it to not do that?

Never had that problem, when I tried it.

 

[verifiaman]

all you do is paste the frames onto a wad right? Like, you DO just paste the frames onto a wad if you want it to appear when you play the map right?

That's a chilling reminder of an old bug. Interesting.

Well, theoretically you just need to merge the lumps into one WAD (make sure the map lumps are all in order unless you WANT it to screw up) and it should work. If it doesn't, something is awfully wrong with either one of the WADs.

I can't beleive none of you got this. His WAD has ALCS. Auto-Lumpname-CAPSing-syndrome.

Okay I have no idea what any of you are saying. I have a learning disability so please explain slowly.

The XWE sometimes Caps when you don't need it.

Get te latest beta of XWE and turn off "auto caps"(Or something similar)

Slumped (The other WAD editor) also automatically capitalises lumpnames. You need to make sure the last lumps on the character are a and b, not A and B.
