I have spent the last 3-4 weeks rewriting DoomCAD from SCRATCH in Borland Delphi (DoomCAD used to be in Visual Basic). The first results of that project is now ready. The new Doom editor is called dCAD (as in DelphiCAD, I guess). It can handle Doom/Doom2/Heretic/Hexen editing, although Hexen script support is not built in: you create the script yourslef, compile it using ACC, then specify the compiled filename when you save your WAD. There's also no node builder, as DoomCAD's was buggy anyway. I recommend WARM, and will probably include it in the first release version of dCAD. dCAD is about 10x faster than it's VB cousin. It's also easier to use, in my opinion. Thorough testing has not been done. I decided to release the beta as soon as possible and get all interested parties using it to provide feedback. Please do. As of now, the beta is on the Software Creations BBS (see Doom readme for #). I will try and find a Web site to post it to soon. matt tag
