I like Blood so I’m happy but wouldn’t a Duke or Wang mod make more sense? Was legal limbo involved?

I want to make a map (not for doom) but I have literally no idea where to even start. How do you know what to do? Where to place enemies, what kind of rooms to make. I don't know what makes a good "level design" or flow or whatever.

>>10318507
Play the game a lot you want to map for. See what's fun and what's not. Immitate the style, then try to evolve it in your own way. You can't really map for a game without wasting hundreds of hours playing it before. That's like trying to teach someone to drive without knowing it yourself.

Not sure how that could have any effect on this. I'm pretty sure it has to do with Daniel/Nice (the main guy behind Marrow who works for 3DR) being a huge Blood fan. I mean, having the game's logo as your profile picture here and there speaks for itself.
>>10318897
I'm usually sticking strictly to this thread, but recently peaked into catalogs for a few boards and notice that each had an AI thread now. What's the fucking deal with that?

Love the Quake 3 cast and aesthetics but damn if I don't find just DM and CTF boring as shit

>>10318962
a recent ai model came out that's really good and also easily accessible

>>10318897
spam this garbage somewhere else, not here.

Any Quakemapfags around? How do you reliably make outdoor terrain, either in TB or JACK since you can just export as .map in JACK. I use Canyon Terrain Editor but it splits every 16grid space into two triangles so it makes for a LOT of polygons that old Windows 7 users might bitch about.

That was my safest assumption. I think I'm just surprised at how much Bloodbros have been winning the last few years.

>>10319332
I agree with him, ai images are boring and uncreative

Today I went on my hard drive and found this

>>10318507
As someone who's working on their first map, I'm starting to feel 3 things:
1) Avoid limiting movement, whether it's spacing out monster teleports or having enough room to the left and right to dodge an enemy
2) Try not to localize combat. Room by room combat encounters are still fun, but the better maps are able to have it spread all out and you're free to run about a good bit.
3) Give players a good amount of time before they encounter any locked doors, and try to use the central area almost like a hub, so it doesn't feel linear and they'll naturally want to check more to sniff out the path forward. Plus it gives you more room to have offshoots or hide shit.

My current map will still be too linear and room-by-room, but I feel invigorated for the next one

i always forget that I can charge my grenade throw in Q2

Thirding, even when you use good prompts most outputs just look like generic artstation slop, not even mentioning the very non-/vr/ related tinkering these nerds do in the background to make results even more shitty and generic
I did like pic related from an earlier thread though since the background reminds me of Mount Pain

And closed. That was bretty good. DBP40 overall was fantastic; admittedly, I would've appreciated a little bit more variation in how the theme was used, but the execution was great and made each map distinct on its own.

DBP29 was not as good, but I'd say only 1-2 maps stuck out to be as being full-on meh. It also had 2-3 maps that were really fun and intriguing, so it was still a pretty good time.

>>10319571

kek'd

>>10318897
Most of the time, I don't really feel like there's a point. Like before, you didn't really have people sharing cool looking Artstation slop. The fact that a robit did it doesn't suddenly make it neat or adds extra value, unless it's someone misguided enough to think that the AI art is "their" art. Sometimes, the idea behind the prompt might be neat and worth discussing, but you didn't need the art to do that before, and most of the time the art is just dropped without context or a desire to discuss, so usually it's not for actual discussion. Most that'd have a purpose is for funny shit, but most people are less funny with their prompts than they think.

If you actually were using AI art as a tool, like creating concepts or art for a jam you're actually gonna follow through with, or like that one dude who was generating skyboxes, then that feels like it actually has merit to discuss or be interesting. If you're just generating art to share, then it doesn't really have a point, including to just share it in the first place.

For example, what if someone was making a continuation of the Deathball wad and wanted to include actual teams with logos but didn't have an artist, so they were using AI to create them? That would be actually interesting. If you generated a picture of a bunch of Marines and Revs playing football, it'd be nothing.

I barely play FPS games but I'm in the mood for some
just played the demo for Zortch which isn't retro, but it made me think; do most games in the genre just use mouse scrolling and/or the 1-0 keys for weapon switching?
I just find it pretty unintuitive, is all

>>10319680
yes that is the standard, it's faster then having to use a weapon wheel and click

>>10319145
well, what's the question? you seem to have it pretty much figured out.
you can export map brushes to obj from TB as well. or just use the compiled bsp for scale reference.
then you generate your terrain and get it back into the editor either through obj2map, or the blender plugin.

there's no real way to ensure that a four-sided polygon is planar if you're sculpting or randomly generating stuff, so it will likely have to be split into triangles. and the GPU draws everything as triangles anywa, so this only matters for bsp compilers unnecessarily slicing up the space. still, if it matters to you for whatever reason, you can open your terrain in blender, enter edit mode, and run Mesh > Cleanup > Make Planar (a couple hundred iterations), then Face > Tris to Quads. then export to map with the plugin.

>>10319680
it's intuitive in that it's transparent.
if you stick with the game for longer than a single playthrough, it makes sense to rebind stuff to keys within immediate reach (like 1234qerzxc & the extra mouse buttons), but just dumping that as the default scheme on a new player would be pretty dumb.

>>10319680
what would be a more intuitive means of weapon switching for you?

>>10318897
Stay in your AI Slop Containment Thread(s).

>>10319752
This is how Canyon Terrain Editor makes terrain, splitting aaalll these triangles. I'm just thinking about players with PCs from 2011 and back, so I was thinking maybe somebody knows a better way to making terrain with less brushes.
>still, if it matters to you for whatever reason, you can open your terrain in blender, enter edit mode, and run Mesh > Cleanup > Make Planar (a couple hundred iterations), then Face > Tris to Quads. then export to map with the plugin.
Interesting. Can I do that with cubes and pic related too?

>>10319806
Also I really, really want to sand/smooth down this edge here to make it less obviously polygonal since sand doesn't look like that. Can Blender help with that too?

>>10319806
here's the basic way to visualize it. once you start moving verts in 3D, quads usually stop being planar. and since bsp is all about intersecting planes, it has to turn them into separate surfaces earlier rather than later.
with Q1, generally you'll sooner run into collision issues than bad performance, so I'd just leave them as triangles. maybe decrease the overall resolution instead, if that editor allows it.

sanding down an edge is called bevelling or chamfering. but it's pretty easy to just slice off the corner in Trenchbroom using 3-point clip.

>>10319843
>sanding down an edge is called bevelling or chamfering. but it's pretty easy to just slice off the corner in Trenchbroom using 3-point clip.
So that's what that's for. Son of a bitch thanks. Also thanks for the rest of your post as well.

>>10319674
I like AI art a lot, but I pretty much agree--it's a waste of thread space if it's just thrown out and doesn't lead to any discussion. Plus AI art threads (at least the ones I've seen on /v/) degenerate into low-effort coomerbait. There are a lot of nifty things you can do with the different models, but the threads just get spammed with "what if this vidya character was a disgusting fat chick?"

>>10318982
Surely you could've get away with one thread in appropriate board (whenever that is). Just seeing practically the same thing across the site seems very odd.
>>10319296
>That was my safest assumption.
Sometimes it's the right way to go with no need to overthink everything. Dimension of the Past is more of an exception to the rule where MachineGames was able to use that as an exception to work on more Quake content. Still expect them to be a supporting developer on a new Quake game at best, but that's besides the point.
>Bloodbros have been winning the last few years.
Oh yeah. It's probably as good as it's going to get.

>>10319680
You can quickly scroll to the gun you want with only a finger, OR instantly select one with the numbers. I'm not really sure how that's "unintuitive." Frankly it seems like the best of both worlds.

>>10320049
I love this kind of trick. Good work.

I just realized that swinging your stun baton underwater in ion fury, it makes you swim faster

Ashes 2063 was so fucking good. I can't wait for more.

>>10320582
the scrolling is the problem. if it doesn't show me which direction I'm cycling through the weapons, as in 1-10 going up or 10-1 going down, then it's hard to know what weapon I'm scrolling to; the best I can do is scroll and hope I land on what I want
there's also the fact that I can't be sure if scrolling speed has an effect on where I'm heading
if it came up with the list of weapons at the top that showed me what I'm cycling through, that'd be fine

>>10319773
I unironically enjoy the weapon wheel
I guess I'm just more of a visual person, or maybe just a console pleb. I like to see what I'm doing

>>10320636
Some games have "scroll up" to choose more powerful weapons. Others do it as "scroll down." I prefer the former and rebind it every time they do it the other way. SCROLL UP to HIGHER NUMBERS is just logical.

Every game I can think of lets you rebind this, so it's hardly a problem.

>>10320610
Did you know that using the lightning gun in quake under water boosts your movement speed for the next 30 seconds? Isn't that neat? The developers thought of little hidden features for us to find!

>>10320635
There is more. Ashes Afterglow for example.
Also check out Apocalyptic Vibes on steam if you got 20 bucks to waste.

>>10319680
>spoiler
I liked the game, but it's very short. Still, you can't complain about a game that's less then 5 bucks. Wish more games would get that pricepoint, but seems a lot of the throwback games go for 10 to 20 now.

>>10320656
Oh I know. Afterglow just passes itself off as Episode 2, so I played both one after the other. Both very very good, and a prequel is coming out "When it's done" starring that one guy you meet in the chapel.

It worries me that people complained about "too much dialogue" though. I am legitimately there for the story. It's not like it replaces the shootan.

It happened to me a few time when playing one of the Milous slaughtermaps - turns out that the real boss of the 666 levelpack wasn't the BossTank stuck with you in a room barely larger than the place it was contained in at the vanilla Q2 Grid Control level dimension-wise, but a respawnable medkit the game insist is a solid object until it stops falling (and which will insta-gib you if you try to grab it mid-drop)

It’s still fun to discuss and point out, and it makes sense as a means to promote the Fresh Supply port. There’s also some interesting contrast in how well Monolith was after releasing Blood compared to 3DR after Duke and SW.
>>10320636
>I guess I'm just more of a visual person, or maybe just a console pleb. I like to see what I'm doing
I think that’s why “Half Life weapon groups” got popular awhile back. They provide visualization and the groups make some sense.

Duke > Shadow Warrior > Blood

>>10321000
>Blood for last.
I'll bet you played it on Extra Crispy, got filtered and came here to bitch about it instead of lowering the difficulty.

>>10320797
So its a matter of item placement here (floors that dissapear instead of moving away make items stay suspended in air IIRC) most likely then, also just checked if Mjolnir runs better on IW - but the gigantic level QsS has problems with doesn't even load in this sourceport, I guess that I'll just cheat to get by it or skip it entirely if things would get too tedious for my patience...

>>10321017

>There’s also some interesting contrast in how well Monolith was after releasing Blood compared to 3DR after Duke and SW.
That... actually does sound like an interesting thing to look into.
Although you can argue that both companies aren't exactly in the good position with 3D Realms still being cursed since DNF days and Monolith sticking to licensed games (Middle-Earth ones and Wonder Woman) as Warner Bros developer.

>>10321126
I’d rather drown in safe WB bucks than whatever 3DRealms is about to eat from Embracer. You could also say “at least Wang’s getting new games” but the SW IP may have been a real easy acquisition with how rough the original sold.

>>10319395
>2) Try not to localize combat. Room by room combat encounters are still fun, but the better maps are able to have it spread all out and you're free to run about a good bit.
This is my biggest mapping sin, along with not listening to 3) about central hubs
I do a lot of loops like in HL1 and HL2, but still huge percentage of my maps are room by room and "corridor-like" (even if those corridors are wide as fuck, with loops and hub like areas so you don't notice the linear nature). I need to make an onion map or something like Redead-ITA's maps to finally break this bad habit

>>10319674
>For example, what if someone was making a continuation of the Deathball wad and wanted to include actual teams with logos but didn't have an artist, so they were using AI to create them?
That is the biggest potential advancement that AI could provide - allow autists like me/us to make by ourselves wads that would require team effort - I just wanna map and not have to put up with making sprites/textures

>>10321239
SLIGE/Oblige/Obsidian has existed for ages already for making wads without putting effort in.

>>10321272
How about you put some effort into reading comprehension? I'm not talking about no effort at all - just being able to focus on mapping and put all effort into that and help yourself with AI in other departments

Is it just me or did this exact same room was featured in The Spiritworld?

>>10321002
Bro, Duke and SW are legitimately great games too, ordering it like this is not even necessarily saying he didn't like Blood. Just that he personally likes two other great games a little bit better.

Alright lads 2 Quake 2 (remaster) questions:
1) How am I supposed to fight the Parasite dogs? Is it just treat them like hitscanners close-up and projectile enemies from far?

2) Does crouching do anything w/r/t dodging any enemy attacks (beyond just visually entering cover)?

>>10321473

>>10321523
I was just mocking the other anon. I could type "I like Quake" and somebody would ask me "so you hate Doom?" as if my statement even implies I have anything against Doom. Also

>>10321473
>Duke and SW are legitimately great games
...Duke is above average, SW is playable.

>>10321451
It looks kind of ugly there but it reminds me of the ceiling crusher room in SW's Arcana

>Redead-ITA
Blessed Red Guy appreciator.

>>10321602
Duke is amazing fun, and I won't hear a word to the contrary. You can pick it up and play it and have a blast. The only unfortunate thing is the weapons are all pretty vanilla and have no real alt-fires. But that's not a reason to hate classic games like Doom or Quake either.

As for SW, no, it's a great time. The only thing I'll admit is the best maps are mostly a part of the Shareware episode, and I feel sorry for owners of the full game who mistakenly don't play this chapter.

Show me some screenshots of Quake 1 levels that (You) personally like the look of. Bonus points if the map is older and wasn't made by some big-name community member exporting things out of Blender. I need encouragement.

>>10321602
SW is weird. I can't tell if it's better to play it with or without aim assist.

>>10320672
i believe the dev said on moddb that he wasn't going to decrease the amount of dialogue. those who want less dialogue are fucking retards anyways, there are only like 5 npcs you have to talk to in the whole game, and they are part of what makes the game so good

Oh yeah, I guess you're right. Looking closer he did say he wasn't going to cut overall dialogue, just reduce the stuff that is required for the main quest. I did read that full commentary once but I guess I forgot that was the conclusion when I glanced over it again today.

Anyone up for some Friday the 13th Bloodbath? I have a public lobby open on the Steam version of Fresh Supply

I love Quake so much. I just wish I was better at mapping. Pic related is map1 of Arcanum.

>>10321649
Honestly you can revisit the id1 campaign for inspiration. Seriously, id1 holds up like crazy in terms of architecture. I think the only weak map is E1M1, and even then the giant base roof jutting out from the base is quite a sight.

>>10321827
Theres already thousands of wads with no NPC's for people who like that. I like simple retro style gameplay but its nice to have something a little different with more involved plot sometimes.

>>10321649
Horde of Zendar level intro is beautiful in my opinion. I mean all levels in AD looks fantastic, sometimes you stop and look at the nice aesthetic and design

Death's Dominion's Themple of Korn is a neat one for an oldie, I even like most of the traps it kills you with

>>10321615
I played thru both SnackMap speedmapping jams just now and some of their maps really felt strongly deriative from entire segments of both AD levels and the recent big Q1 mapping Discord server's releases (TSW, Dwell, QBJ) being lifted for refference/homage (either by manual recreation attempt or just copypasting older versions of those places as prefabs by the same mapper), not really a bad thing mind you, just a bit "Deja-vu" inducing at times to mess with one's muscle memory

>>10321140
>safe WB bucks
Yeah, that's fair. Even with some rumblings over their gaming division being either sold off or something along those lines, it's seemingly stock around for now.
>3DRealms is about to eat from Embracer.
While they're saying "they're fine", Embracer has openly walked back on its word via Crystal Dynamics: at first they said that there would be unaffected by layoffs, but then CD let go of 10 workers.
Despite this, I'm counting on 3DR's miraculous resilience to persevere. Not only some other Saber staff might take the bullet instead of them, Embracer might be satisfied with selling off Gearbox. Their CEO mentioned that getting rid of their high-value assets would be simply easier and, no offense to them, 3D Realms is definitely more of a middle player. They'll be fine.

>E4 has some of the best levels for Doom 1. E4M2 is my favorite Doom 1 level in the commercial release

Interesting opinion...

>only passed by the brilliance that is Sigil if you want to count it as official.

Oh, you're trolling, nvm.

>>10322724
I'm not trolling. Sigil was enjoyable from start to finish. Sure thing, we got a lot of better wads for Doom 2, but in terms of Doom 1 wads you hardly find something better than Sigil. It's peak Doom 1 gameplay.

You should also play Doom the way ID did

>>10322724
But Sigil is as good as Doom 1 gets anon?

>>10322247
For some reason I love these setpieces of exterminating a bunch Zombies with just the Mjolnir/Quoth hammer/Chainsaw/AD super-axe in confined spaces (except in the Nyarlahotep start map, where you're stuck floating in low-G while their aim is dead-on)

>>10323729
there it was something called CRT TV's with NTSC/Composite or S-Video signal you know
and only hipsters played 3d games without texture filtering, which back then was the mark of the poorfag not having filtering on.

>>10323731
That sucks for Quake 2 Remaster bros. >>10319419 and pic rel is with Kmq2 and a DLL I farted out for the 25th Unit, not Q2R. I ran into no issues.
CoS2 also doesn't need or come with its own DLL, what problems is it causing where it needs one for the new port?
>>10323729
It was alright as far as consoleshit went, but I thought Perfect Dark looked much better.

>>10323779
the only hope is that Yamagi backports the AI code back to YQ2 alongside the MD5 support

>>10323513
I got all the keys, so far the only problem I encountered was in the red key level where some buttons didn't work. But with the enemies everything works fine, no problems

Has any wad introduced alternate key types? If my understanding of how the pickups work is correct, it should be possible to create more pickable items with alternate sprites (Even if message and HUD icon would be shared)

>>10323779
Yeah it sucks that some mappacks don't work with the remaster. I like the original game but the remaster makes it more interesting with the ai changes and I like the remodels

>>10323809
What do you mean by "alternate key types"? Like, additional ones, so you could e.g. make a map where you need nine keys in total (3 keys of each of the 3 types), or just sprite replacements for existing keys (e.g. star keys instead of skulls or something)? I am fairly certain there are a million wads with the latter type, but considering the line actions and such are pretty limited in everything but UDMF, I doubt you will find much for the former.

>>10323813
I mean sprite replacement, but not wholesale. Like items entirely identical to key cards (or skulls) but not replacing the key cards, so you can have more appropriate key set after leaving the techbase.

>>10317909
https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/140427-pina-colada-rc2-24-boom-maps-collab/
myolden also released a community project, it's now on RC2. It has strict 75 monsters limit, which is its major thing.

>>10323804
I was kind of hoping the new enemies would show up as well. I ran through it real quick to find out the BFGladiator doesn't show up. It's great that it's otherwise playable for Q2Rdudes, its an amazing set of levels.

>>10323818
You can replace the sprites and (I think) change the strings using a DeHackEd patch.

What are some female companion mods for gzdoom

it get lonely in the slaughterhouse ;__;

>>10323839
Yeah, that's true. What I'm saying is that it should be possible (If impractical) to create more functionally identical pickups that copy keys' effect to allow for more thematically appropriate keys (If you have a third theme that is neither techbase nor hell, for example).

It seems impractical, but should be possible because pickups seem to get their effect from sprite prefix they display, and I wonder if it was ever done.

>>10323842
Depends on the engine. You can't do that with Boom.

>>10323845
As I just found out, I can definitely replace another pickup and it will give me a key.
It might be that I need more than I realize to make a pickup, but they might be hardcoded.

>>10323845
Gentlemen, behold! I have figured it out and replace a pillar with a new key (that uses a crude doodle for a sprite). Vanilla compatible-style.
https://files.catbox.moe/oj0zvb.zip

Granted, the code is entirely of the key card, but it does work. Demonstraction map is included in the wad.

>>10323729
lol when I loaded into that level I thought "damn maybe it was made for texture filtering"
turned out filtering and lo, it is just really really low resolution.

>>10323729
I played all of my Quake2 shit in software renderer only because I hated how dim and blurry everything appeared on my old CRT monitor - and how bleak stuff looked after maxing the gamma to try even things out, before discovering KMQ2 thanks to Pax Imperia.

You can make whatever you want as long as you follow the project's rules. you still have one week to make something or even a wip, I'll stop receiving map updates at oct. 25

This is a bit of a longshot, but has anyone here used Scopa with Unity to import .maps? I'm having some problems with baked lighting and am looking for assistance.

>>10323742
Texture filtering wasn't an option with consoles, it was always on or off.
I turned it off on many PC games because I thought it looked better than with. Not all. That webm is good example, but if the texel density was consistently smaller I'd turn it off.

>>10323023
I've spent way too long fiddling with the backside of a weapon that'll be on screen for less than a second with each use, but I have a problem.
I still need to finish painting the front end of this thing.

>>10323818
You mean instead of red/blue/yellow you have gold/silver/copper or some such?
Or instead of "red key card" you have "red dagger key" or something?
If the latter, even with dehacked you can add new red/blue/yellow variants. You just need to use the same sprite prefix on your new keys. I forget what it is for red keys, but if it were RKEYA0 you could make a new sprite named RKEYC0 and apply it to your "thing" and give it the "pickup" flag.

>>10324197
See >>10323903
His idea was to have key reskins that function like the regular keys, but have different pickup sprites.

Gathering custom textures and converting them to the SW palette along with some rudimentary block out work on 2 maps for Some Ting /vr/y Wong.

you guys wouldn't happen to know where to find info on the version history of the xbox 360 ports, would you?

>>10324205
Glad he figured it out. I didn't the whole response chain, but hopefully my explanation made sense anyway.
I assume it's what he did.

>>10323729
When textures were blown out to massive scale like that, they would usually have been filtered. Wouldn't strictly have looked the very greatest, it'd still be a big smudge of a cave wall, but this was more natural looking than huge and stretched out sharp squares. Worked out for games like Goldeneye.

>>10323809
>>10323903
Gives me another idea, since Boom/MBF21 lets you be specific about this.
>Blue Card becomes security access card
>Blue Skull becomes antique metal key
Generic ones.

>Yellow Card becomes colonel's hand
>Yellow Skull becomes vile devil's eye
Probably fight for these.

>Red Card becomes first half of runic demon key
>Red Skull becomes the other half
Need both of these for unlocking.

>>10324330
Color-coding key acquisition is very interesting.

>>10324330
>colonel's hand
A hand key is something I needed in my maps but didn't realize it until you posted it

>>10324483
It's probably Tom Hall's idea, since I first read it in the Doom Bible.

>>10324504
Severed hands to activate fingnerprint scanners isn't that new of an idea, but it is a good one nevertheless.

>>10324483
Strife has you cut off a prison warden's hand (since he's being uncooperative) which you then use for the palm reader locks in the prison to break out captured rebels. With a bit of tweaking you could adapt the "key" sprite and reader texture for Doom's palette.

>>10323687
I played the N64 levels using the texture filter.
The rest were just no filter whatsoever

>>10324518
I think something that would be more distinct is a decapitated head for retina scanners. Strife's hand would be kinda hard to see in gameplay.

>>10317908
Quake was ok but compared to doom it wasn't that good. Even unreal beat it

I used faststone, but it's kinda cumbersome for this (need to manually untick compression each time, and no tga format in batch conversion dialog).
still, I can recommend it for basic image viewing over irfan/acdsee/whatever.

>>10324965
Big and sharp pixels were always inherent to the look of Doom, even on CRTs, and you just really would not have scanlines unless you were playing one of the console ports.

dam, Choco doom uses 1/4 of the resources of GZ with similar settings

Playing Thy Flesh Consumed for the first time. I'm on E4M2 and this shit is already an infuriating nightmare. I could stomach the difficult encounters if the progression wasn't so fucked, making me trek across damaging floors multiple times.

Is it possible to make a BFG rush map, without making it a slaughterfest?

is there a way to swap the weapon scrolling in Blood? I can't rebind it since when I scroll it thinks I want to choose a different binding
right now it's inverted

Vaeros might want to reply

my gzdoom experience has improved significantly since downloading a waifu character follow mod for my imaginary gf to play

it has honestly transformed my preferences for games tremendously

honestly Im considering doomkrakken's monster randomizer and legendoomlite in the next episode (4th) although after typing this I was concerned it might make the episode too difficult (i.e. unbalance it) as it is the 4th episode and sigil is next

these last two doom1 episodes with my waifu was a delightful walk in a refreshingly cool and breezy park. [w/ a m2hb .50 cal machinegun albiet nonetheles, im playing as a Baron (red minotaur man)]

>>10327648
nvm, I'm still too stupid to download stuff off GitHub, let me know when the Keep mod will have a page on ModDB or Slipseer
>the Sidewinder has a new custom graphic in Keep to differentiate it from the SoA Prox-Launcher that Tronyn nicked its model from for his Drakemod, but every single time you grab any item it swaps the V_weap model with the old one and back to the new one (not to mention how the PL still exists here too, but the Sidewinder is considered an upgrade to it for some reason)
Why didn't the Drakemod just use the Zestorer's model of the Screw Cannon for their drunken missile launcher from the get-go will always be a mystery to me, that cool-looking model which was squandered on such a garbage gimmicky weapon in the original TotD deserves much more mileage after a slight touchup

you think you can speak down to me since your ugly pig wife shat out an ugly piglet

>>10328367
yes i can have a joke at your expense. enjoy your imaginary friend.

sees mention of a keep mod in these threads, always sad that painkeep gets so little love.
the painkeep 3.0 is borked for me, that shitty 3rd person position with weird viewwep business i cant seem to get rid of. am i just being retarded?

>>10328394
Pray-tell what makes you think so?

So when's Blood 2 remastered? They are already hitting the bottom of the barrel remastering Sloprock 3

damn the splatterhouse wad fucks

>>10328442
Not him but there’s a bunch of weird black blobs on the screen there. What are they from?
>>10328446
>run out of good games to remaster so they start remaking bad ones
The next logical step. It’ll just take more work in general and a whole lot more in Blood 2’s case.

>>10328446
I hope it's gonna get as much Revelations content as remotely possible

Slow days lately, huh?

That gray tube seen at the end of this wooden bridge seen at >>10328356 is a giant arrow which lodged itself on the cliffside mere moment befor I took that pic, thats where all those random black balls of rubble came from.

>>10328495
Multiple projects in limbo due to MIA leads, few mod/map releases of note, and Quake 2 re-release hype has died down. Also wouldn't be surprised if some of the more creative people who would post here have gone and tried to translate whatever skills they have into a side-hustle given the current economy.
Things will bounce back eventually though.

I've been working on my own project and have churned out 14 maps in ~8 months. I don't have the inspiration to contribute to community projects currently.

what are some doom sprite reskin mods that reskins the enemies to look like human equivalents?

I wanna roleplay a monster that got unleashed from containment or something and running wild and free

>>10328645
like military and scientists and idk helicopters instead of cacodemons and soldier inside mechsuits instead of barons/knights/mancubus/pinky

wow okay this looks pretty cool

but im open for any better suggestions of a inversely designed enemies

How the fuck should I fix that ?

>>10328664
Be sure your map compiled properly and the .bsp is in the "valve/maps" folder.

>>10328645
FreeDoom has a nice-looking Chaingunner that's either a cyborg or an armoured human

Is there a way to get this health pack without rocket jumping?

>14 maps in ~8 months
Not too bad desu. In the past 12 months, I only got 2 maps and 1/3 of an enemy replacement done for a 9-map Doom 1 WAD, so you're doing better than me for sure.
I also made, like, 8 maps for community projects in that time, instead of working on my own shit, including submissions to AD MORTEM Phase 2 and Fore/vr/ Alone.

>>10328790
Does KexQ2 preserved the double-jump exploit?

>>10328795
Prior to 2022 my output was roughly 1 map a year, so I'm proud of myself. #15 & 16 are in progress as well.

Its cool. Im on episode 3 and Im headcanonning it as places taken back over by the UAC after doom guy rolled through there.

doom 2 is going to be so cool

>>10328645
Mutiny is a bestiary mod that replaces everything with doomguy equivalents

>>10328802
Have you posted any progress in these threads? If not, share some; you got me curious!

doom is so much better when you walk everywhere and use only run scarcely in strategic situations


I get to hold hands with my waifu. let her ride atop my beefy red shoulders. Or carry her underneath my armpit like a barrel *cutely*


for this reason I am against gameplay that involves respawning of enemies. It just deprives me of these peaceful moments with my waifu where I can hear just the sound of my hoofs pounding the ground

>>10328496
So that's debris from something awesome happening? Fine by me. I otherwise love the detail in there.
I was having a great time with the second episode until Q2R came out and reignited my interested with 2. I loved every bit I played in this map and look forward to the rest.

>>10328907
