Some of the table columns were not large enough to fit the text, or the words themselves were too big when smaller words would have done.
Lots of single-word lines at the ends of paragraphs.
Removed a bit of redundant information.
Vital links in the submitting/visiting sections needed to have visible URLs in case one really did print them out.
Added a copy of the BSD licence and a link to the website.

A new ENDOOM lump that:
1) Looks more like the Freedoom logo seen on the splash screen.
2) Has information about the Freedoom website, copying (license)
credits and development builds.
The singleplayer ENDOOM lump has also been fixed as it was using the wrong URLs (website doesn't have a "www" and soulsphere's https still has certificate issues).
This ENDOOM lumps were created in Playscii and edited by @mc776 with ENDEDIT.
- Made E1M1 more beginner friendly (keycards is optional for secret)
- Upper starting area door opens consistently from both sides. Switch is gone and that corridor is shortened
- There is a little trail of health bonuses guiding the player to the least damaging way to reach the armour
- Soul sphere in upper area is now red armour

The recent two-handed sprite update raised the sprite further up the screen - which looks good, except the gun now looks like it's pointing somewhere above the center line of the screen.
This flattens the A frame out a bit. B is left as-is as it just ends up looking like recoil when you shoot.
The original sound reduced by only 6dB compared to the much more aggressively softened previously committed version, which was inaudible in some setups.
E1M8
- Crosses replaced with windows into tenta-tech paranoid pareidolia.
E3M5
- Final room changed into a generic, secular meeting hall. Pews are now large... brain... tentacle... things... slightly dressed up to match the classic brown decor.
Map12
- If you look out the window from around (672,1056) there's another visplane crash. That entire corridor has been greatly simplified, as well as a few things visible from that window and some nearby items.
- The switch lift is now activated on the lift itself. Computer panel stuff replaces the switch so that wall doesn't look so empty (which I can only infer was what motivated this unusual setup).

* flats: replace SWATER with fireblu.
This was briefly discussed on Discord a while ago and I'll throw it out here and see if it sticks.
Basically nobody has any use case for that choppy bright yellow and blue animation. It doesn't really look like anything, so it's either:
1. some hazardous undefined pollutant for a hurtfloor
2. some high-contrast dimensional-rift warp sort of deal
Between nukage, blood, brown sludge and lava - heck, even blue water is good for radioactive stuff - we've pretty much got every use case covered. I've actually never seen the current SWATER used this way.
A lot of messed-up dimensional-rift stuff is represented by a combination of hot rock flats and fireblu - in a lot of places where the hot rock flat is pretty obviously motivated by the lack of a fireblu flat.
This proposed change will allow that fireblu to be used on flat surfaces while breaking no actual use case for what it replaces.
I found the line a little distracting and tried doing this, and other people mentioned how they found this looked more punchy than the current (in a good way) so here it is.
I've created a set of replacement textures here for the boss wall heavily inspired by the old texture (using fragglet's replacement as a base).
The metal paneling here is recreated without any of the paneling from the original graphic, with some other parts of the textures using elements of the patches "GRATE", "RW33_2", "W109_1", "W109_2", and "W110_1", alongside "w17_1" from the attic.
In addition it provides some extra PWAD compatibility over the original texture, with "monitor" graphics provided in certain locations for PWADs expecting their placement.
There is no reason whatsoever for the worm to have 8 rotations separately defined on any of its animations.
The tripod unlike the cyberdemon (or large technospider) is fully symmetrical as well.
I'd suggest doing this for the zombieman since no one's going to notice anyway, but I'm not the one who had put the work into those additional rotations.
The metal panneling appears to have been taken from a Hexen wall
texture. I've replaced all of it with chopped-up bits of the W17_1
patch. It can certainly be improved further but for the time being
this will resolve the copyright issue.
Fixes#1158.
PASG
- Palettization left some weirdly brightly saturated green pixels on highlights. Changed them to olive manually.
- Embiggened the arm slightly to better match the fist.
- Darkened the arm slightly on the A frame to better match the mugshot, etc..
- Made the flash a bit brighter in the inside and less spiky at the top, to minimize the impression of a single blotch of red.
DBSG
- Added more contrast to the hand and shells.
- Cleaned up some stray pixels on the right edge.
- Mad the flash shorter vertically and made the peaks a little inward following the path of the guns instead of shooting straight up from just in front of the muzzle.
E1M1
- All the monsters in the trench are now +ambush, so they don't move until you're down there. On easy the zombieman even faces away from the start.
- More monster blockers added to prevent invisi-blocks jumping into the starting room trench or down from the cliffs in the outdoor area.
E2M7
- Armour bonuses still floating on sector 599. They now adorn the side pillars instead.
- The minigun is comically easy to miss - pretty much every passage into that area is designed for you to look the other way or overshoot it jumping in there, and you might go through the next 80% of the map before having any reason to go back into that part of the room. Its platform has been moved to the lower area, with the upper platform being ostensibly a shotgun but the shotgun guy now standing there took it.
E3M4
- Stealth worm 16 stuck on overlapping ledge.
- Changed the St. Pete's cross into a sealed-off fireblu portal.
- Extended the stairs up from that long bridge so that it's more obvious from a distance at low resolution that those are legit stairs up and you're actually expected to backtrack that way.
- Redecorated the exit room.
E3M5
- Jump down into painlord courtyard in the west would be invisi-blocked by said painlords. Monster blocking line added to keep the way down clear. Moved the tree out of the way too, for good measure.
- Addressed #996.
E3M9
- Fixed numerous tutti-frutti textures and unstraightened some unintentional fake-contrasts in some organic areas.
E4M2
- Got rid of the flat bleed trick in that slime tunnel. It's just a big steady spotlight now - and it doesn't mitigate any nukage damage.
- The secret exit room multiplayer contingency entrance is now opened immediately after the trap-bars are triggered. The trap-bars themselves are no longer crushing, preventing a possible immobilization softlock.
- Said multi-contingency entrance area is remodeled to make it clear it has been jump-proofed.
- Aligned hex textures in secret exit room.
E4M9
- Flagged line 1765 as monster blocking. It's possible for a monster, while that platform is descending, to step right onto that window ledge and get stuck there as the platform continues its movement.
- Added glass to the sides of sector 230 to prevent the player from falling in under certain circumstances.
Map02
- Changed the multi-wallpart elevator so that the middle is the "rungs" that the side "pulleys" are lifting up the platform against.
Map04
- Numerous cosmetic fixes to the starting area.
Map05
- A couple lines on the edge of the stream used the surrounding brown rock instead of the zimmer brown.
- Made the helipad symmetrical and made it look more weathered, including adding a small tree where there would once have been a light.
Map11
- The walk line to open the yellow door switch is now south of the minigun, so those who "know" how it works (without knowing the exact location of the line) don't have to go all the way up to the door to intentionally trigger it.
- Removed some hard-only monsters from the eastern branch, removing some matribites and octaminators and replacing one of the former with a formerly easy-only trilobite and one of the latter with a stealth worm.
- The dock area is now opened up by the same switch that lowers the two platforms, which are now lowered permanently.
- The red skull shootable switches are now located so high up that it's impossible to gamble on a stray SSG shot hitting them from below.
- Addressed #996 in some small gaps in the final arena.
Map23
- Moved all health bonuses around the broken teleporter to look less like mushrooms.
Map26
- Blue skull door trim was misaligned, obscuring the shape of the horns.
- Zombieman 130 stuck inside a monster blocking line.
- Moved all health bonuses around the starting area corpse to look less like mushrooms.
Map29
- Addressed #996.
Map32
- Added a way to climb out of the lava pit.
