SLADE

(Redirected from SLADE3)
SLADE ("SlayeR's Leet-Ass Doom Editor") is an all-purpose editing tool with support for ZDoom editing, developed by SlayeR (now known as sirjuddington). It is in active development, with version 3.0 currently available.
Version 3 is a fusion of SLADE and SLumpEd. The level editor is currently not implemented, as SlayeR chose to concentrate on the lump management features first given that Doom Builder 2 is stable and mature enough for most needs, while both SLumpEd and XWE suffer from bugs and limitations. The map editor is the main new feature planned for version 3.1.
Features
SLADE3 offers a range of features for ZDoom modding:
- All SLumpEd features and more
- Preview of all ZDoom font formats
- Support of all ZDoom image formats, including those used by the Hexen and Strife startup lumps
- Support for the ZDoom PNG chunks alPh and grAb
- Edition and conversion of ANIMATED and SWITCHES lumps to ANIMDEFS format
- Support for ZIP archives (only STORE and DEFLATE compression protocols at the moment)
- Full support for TEXTURES in the texture editor
- Support for UDMF as well as both Doom and Hexen binary map formats in the map preview and map editor
