The awsomest book on doom editors, December 10, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Doom Game Editor (Paperback)

I believe that the book was a great explanation of how to use the editor. It help my 13 year old son use the editor to blast the cybor-demons away every singal time. The best part was when we deathmatched in one of MY creations called the maze. He got lost and was trapped in a corner. I got out the chainsaw and fed it some meat. *wink* But the thing that interested me most was how simple the making of the wads were once the manual was read. Well, thank you for some time in your reading!

Comments on included software, etc., September 16, 1997

This review is from: The Doom Game Editor (Paperback)

The book is reasonably well written. The instructions are accurate enough to follow easily. I was disappointed to find that the included software is the shareware version rather than the full version since the author wrote both the book and the software. The software is easy to use, but it can be time consuming to switch from Windows to DOS to Windows... for editting and testing.
