Progress

I’m churning away on the guts of ToeTag as I want to have a full WAD editing system in place before the 1.0 release. It’s going to allow you to open and edit WADs with the same freedom you can open and edit MAPs with. It’ll look like a giant texture browser but give you all the power you need to import new textures, export existing ones, etc. It’ll be great!

I need to refactor a bunch of stuff first though and although my code structure is helping me out in many ways, I didn’t account for absolutely everything the first time through so there’s a little pain. Not a ton, but enough that it’s taking more time than I want it to. Oh well!

At any rate, screen shots will be posted once I have something working.

I definitely want to extend this as well to include PAK file editing. Shouldn’t be too hard once the WAD editing is in.

    Hey, I have a new mac mini with the latest version of OS X. I tried running toetag and loaded the quake1 wad into it, but it likes to quit out on me when I try to do some simple things. What really frustrated me was, I tried opening a .map file and it pretended that it opened it, but when it was opened there was nothing there on the grid. I was hoping you could shed some light on this? Maybe Im missing a sub-app that it needs to run?
    A readme file would be helpful :P
    Kind Regards,
    Evan

    Make sure you upgrade to 1.00 (which should be available via automatic udpating now). It fixed a few problems - see if it fixes this.

    Yes, I have the newest version. And I got your e-mail, but everytime I try to send you an e-mail back it comes back to me “Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender”. =\

    If you’re using the same email address as you did before, it should work. I guess try again later. Maybe my host is hiccuping.

    Tried sending an email again today. But it keeps coming back. :(

    It says that for some reason. I’m getting the email, don’t worry about it.
