DEHEXTRA

DEHEXTRA, also known as DeHackEd Extended or DeHackEd Extra, is an extension for DeHackEd patches. It provides a significant increase in the number of things and sprites that can be utilized, in addition to the inclusion of 2,910 new states or codepointers. These can be utilized for new map object types, new non-replacing monsters and decorations, or to add additional frames to existing things for smoother animations.

Trivia

 * The idea of providing DeHackEd users hundreds of dummy frames and codepointers to be used is not new: The Fusion port, released in 2002, exposed similar features, but never gained any widespread popularity.
 * Unlike DECORATE or ZScript, DEHEXTRA is not to be considered a lump, as it should be thought of as more of an extension to DeHackEd.
