well fuck I dont even give a crap about knowing how to program either

Ill tell you straight that I wish I could open up an Editing Program that would present all the options and let me change stuff like they did back in the 90s. Stuff like savegame editors, dehacked, or map editing programs like the kind they have for Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics. Everything in a scrollable list.
> like managing a database
Like the Rules.ini in C&C games.
Like the .rul files for OpenXcom.

> SIMPLICITY AND SPEED
EDGE got me into doing decorate-style editing because of the DDF files, which zdoom adopted the basic format of as decorate.

Im going to wager a fair number of modders for (G)Zdoom also feel the same way which is the reason they're not making mods for Quake. Or UT or all the other games out there.

Also I learn almost exclusively By Example, checking out something that someone else did and taking it and doing something else with it.

And about the speed issue... how long it fucking takes to make a mod for something using scripting compared to a system like Decorate. It literally only takes minutes, and if it takes hours its only because of wrangling the sprites and other content.

No - neither Graf nor you are going to transition me to ZScript and if it gets fucked with too much ill drop doom modding altogether. Though from the looks of it that would break compatibility with virtually every mod ever made, so I don't think ill have to worry about that specifically.

Yes you most certainly should but make sure you save often, and dont make any stupid mistakes. Because in Plutonia and especially Plutonia 2 every mistake will cost you severely. And you will need to use inflighting and run around alot rather than stand your ground, you need to be going for switches and guns while monsters are hitting each other, you need to let revenants and other monsters roam while you take care of what you can deal with at that moment.

Stop. Why is everyone at Capcom afflicted with terminal Jewishness? This would of sold like fucking hotcakes if they actually sold it instead of being cheap-asses and expect everyone to buy a fucking demo.
