*XWE (eXtendable WAD Editor) v1.14 by Csabo. Rather incredible Windows tool for editing, adding, and extracting resources (textures, patches, sprites, sounds) for just about any game type: DOOM (and all ports), QUAKE, HEXEN, UNREAL, HALF-LIFE, WOLFENSTEIN 3D and on and on. XWE edits everything that CAN be edited in the DOOM IWAD or any PWAD: Map Editor (with 3D wireframe preview), Image Editor, Texture Editor, Palette Editor, ColorMap Editor, 'Endoom' Editor, Script Editor/Compiler, Wave editor, Music viewer. The interface is simple but ingenious. When you load a WAD a simple list of all the entries is shown on the left. Click on an entry and the editing tool appears on the right. Its prime use is for manipulation of graphics - import, export, create, edit - especially when dealing with patches. Patches can be juxtaposed and positioned with great precision. XWE just about does away with converting graphics to RAW or lump formats and can insert your BMP (or LMP or RAW if you please) right into the WAD. It really is a DOOM Swiss Army Knife. In fact, it replaces just about every other graphic and sound tool I can think of. Thanks to Sarge Baldy for pointing this out to me. Updated 01.22.04 with many fixes and improvements.  Updated 11.09.04.

DM Adds v1.1 by Bernd Kreimeier. This is the elusive program needed to replace Sprites and Flats in your PWAD. The problem, of course, is that the only way to replace Sprites and Flats is to replace them ALL, so you need to build a fairly large WAD that includes not only your new graphics, but all the Sprites and Flats from the DOOM(2).WAD. Good instructions.
