WhackEd4 is designed as a replacement for the old Dehacked DOS utility. It can read and modify any Doom Dehacked patches for versions 1.9 and up, and expands on Dehacked's feature list with the following:

  • A configurable workspace with separate editor windows.
  • Sprite previews from a loaded IWAD and PWADs.
  • Full support for Boom's extensions such as codepointer and thing flag mnemonics.
  • State animation preview with sound playback (where possible).
  • Editing multiple states at the same time.
  • Filtering the displayed list of states by thing states, weapon states or unused states.
  • Does not require a Doom executable, but reads engine data from table files.
  • State highlighting based on sprite index.
  • Separate undo actions for every editor window.
  • Copy and pasting things and states.
  • Support for DeHackEd features of Doom 1.9, The Ultimate Doom 1.9, Boom, Marine's Best Friend, Doom Retro and ZDaemon.
