WAD Package

The simple idea behind WAD Package is to make it easy to merge in a lot of single level WAD files you've been editing into a single distributable WAD file.

The dialog is split into these sections:

WAD Files

Use the buttons Add... and Remove to add/remove WAD files to merge into the output WAD file.  Note that the WAD files to include don't have to be just levels; no processing is done on the contents of these WAD files, all the lumps in them are simply copied to the output WAD file.

MAPINFO

Select the Use MAPINFO checkbox to output a MAPINFO lump into the output WAD.  The MAPINFO can be edited with the Edit MAPINFO button.

Pictures

WAD Package has three pictures you can easily insert into the output WAD file.  All three pictures have a checkbox to select their inclusion in the output WAD file and a Select... button to select the bitmap, which must be an 8-bit bitmap.

The Title Picture is the screen displayed when you load DOOM.  The Inter-Level picture is the backdrop used while DOOM displays your stats for the completed level.  Finally, End Picture is the picture displayed behind the cast list at the end of DOOM.

Output WAD

This is simply the WAD file that will be output with the above selected contents.

Buttons

The New Package button simply clears the dialog to its initial state.

The Load Package and Save Package buttons allow you to load and save the settings for this package.

Build Package will build the output WAD file.
