Hi there,
This is probably not the right place to ask, but I guess it is a good
start.
All of you will i'm sure remember that one of the nicest touches to
the original doom game was the marines "portrait" that appeared on
your HUD - beginning with a maniacal smile, crazy red eyes in god mode
and descending into a bloody mess as more and more aliens pounded on
you.
Well I am feeling artistic and kind of wanted to do a whole monkey to
human progression type evolution picture, but with the doom faces
rather than the monkeys and humans.
Trouble is with a cursory search on google I am struggling to find a
premade collection of the pictures. Does anyone know an easy way to
extract the marine face avatars / sprites from the original WAD files
from Doom II?
Any help you can offer in this regard is massively appreciated. I did
consider Print Screening the different states, but I am not sure how
many different states there are, and print screen is not a guranteed
quality - where as a source picture would be the original...
thanks in advance! |

In Doom1.wad (shareware), Doom.wad (DOOM) and Doom2.wad (DOOM II) all
the status bar graphics are lumps named ST*, and the face graphics in
particular are named STF*. With XWE and WinTex you can press the Gfx
button so that the WAD browser will display graphics only, making it
easier to find the face graphics. You'll see there's a button for
sprites as well, but the face isn't really categorized as a sprite (in
DOOM sprites are technically the things you see moving in the levels
or decorating them, as well as the marine's hands and weapons in hand). |

I'm pretty sure that a number of the WAD editing utilities provided the
ability to extract graphics from WAD files. I remember doing it using
one of the tools in the xwadtools collection - it might've been DeuTex,
but my memory might be faulty.
All the xwadtools stuff is source code, so you'll have to compile it
yourself. I don't know what platform you're using, but I don't remember
having any problems with compiling it on Linux.
If your setup is lacking a C compiler and you can't be bothered with
installing one, then I think there are pre-compiled versions of DeuTex
and WinTex (the Windows port of DeuTex) floating around on download
sites.
You might find the DoomWorld downloads page handy:
http://www.doomworld.com/classicdoom/utils/editors.php
Good luck with your project.
Cheers,
Rayner

Thanks very much for your advice. I will try looking for a WAD editor
when I get back from the office.
Just out of interest, does anyone have any information in what WAD's /
where the HUD srpites are located. It would help a great deal if I
didn't have to trawl through doom II's entire sprite library. >> Stay informed about: Extract Doom Marine Face Sprite? |
