David Develops Doom - Editing basics!

Several people have asked me how to get into making Doom levels themselves! In this video, I spend ten minutes explaining the software you'll need and how to set it up, and then wing it through making a small but technically complete level.

If people think this is useful, I could try making more specific ones for other techniques!
