DeHackEd

DeHackEd is an editor originally created for vanilla Doom that allows the operation of the executable to be changed. It was developed by Greg Lewis. Hit points, sounds, frame sequences, text strings and several other miscellaneous values can be changed. Modifications can be distributed in the form of DeHackEd "patches" which can be applied to the executable.

The most common patches add fast monsters and weapons, player-seeking-self-detonating barrels, and so on. However, more balanced and artistic modifications can and have been made.

-===[[Wall wiggle bug]]===
-The '''wall wiggle bug''', also known as the floor wiggle or wobbly line bug, is a graphical glitch most often apparent when a player is positioned in such a way that a two-sided linedef passes almost directly through the center of the player. Due to the nature of the glitch, it is generally observed when the player is standing at the boundary between two sectors with different heights, such that there is a ledge visible above or beneath the player. The glitch results in the line demarcating the ledge appearing to "wiggle" back and forth in a distracting and unrealistic manner as the player moves.
