What is it and what's the use?

A file that allowed you to binary patch the original doom exe files to get interesting effects. For instance changing the damage an enemy takes, or the damage a gun deals out. Some MOD's make extensive use of this 'feature' like Alien TC(which I'd love to play on my palm btw).

Will not work, is impossible. The binary of the game is different.

Yeah I know they're not compatible in the sense that Dehacked was written for. All you'd really have to do is parse the DEH file and change the appropriate variables at runtime. At least for simpler things. Still not necessarily trivial, but not impossible. I don't remember if I ever got ZDoomZ to compile, maybe I'll look at it sometime. If you'd like to look for yourself, the Boom guys did this. www.3ddownloads.com/doomworld/ports/boom202s.zip;jsessionid=3AD3BB59DD628EDF2F3934797B994DD2 |

Did you write a plugin for TCPMP? Was it difficult?

Haven't finished it yet. Setting up the build environment was about the biggest hassle. I haven't quite got the code to work properly. But I think I have the basics.
[edit]
But I'll report my results when I get something accomplished. Basically I'm having trouble getting access to the actual file, something wrong in my plugin defs I think is preventing it from passing the appropriate information.
