Doom is a pretty cool game, I like it.

>doom

What's everyone playing or about to play retro shooter wise?

For me, I just beat Quake 2 Remaster fully and next going for Ion Fury : Aftershock.

Might try those Quake 2 mods anon linked in one of the past threads or go back to finish Quake 1 Remaster's new episodes.

How about [you] , anon?

i also play other stuff that's not retro so i don't progress very fast

>>10971018
>run gzdoom

>>10971013
I've been going through a bunch of small Doom wads to reset my brain after the fuckery that was The Long Trek Back Home.

Currently trying Neon Nexus, it's pretty great for a single map wad.

>>10971026
I couldn't get into LTBH, I admire the concept but map progression was just too fucky for me
Felt very random, especially monster placement, and not in a way I like

SHAMBLIN

>>10971018
>blaz liked bottom

>>10971027
Yeah the concept was great and some of the set pieces were neat but the overall progress was at best obtuse as fuck, I had far too many "where the fuck do I go now?" moments.

One level that sticks out has you unknowingly trigger a slow looping lift a minute or so's walk away, in a wall where the lift and wall are the red brick texture, almost purposely set up so it could be all the way up and sat there for a good while whenever you passed it while looking for some sense of where to go next.

>>10971013
I was doing my first doom 2 uv run but when I got to map13 downtown I sort of lost the will to play. I will power through it eventually, I just need to take a break.

>>10971013
I need to get back to playing through Unreal SP stuff. I want to finish Necromunda: Hired Gun before that though, since that'll be the faster game to complete.

>>10971013
I'm playing Quake a little bit at a time

>>10971013

>>10971013
Catching up on mapjam9 for Quake. Luv me Quake.

>>10971013
Just finished Quake 2 with a gamepad.
Either gonna do the mission packs next or play some Quake maps.

>>10971083
>Necromunda: Hired Gun
is it as bad as at launch?

>>10971035
Don't forget drawing your attention away from said elevator by sending cacodemons your way to really drive your desire to tell the game to go fuck itself.

>>10971013
Going Down for Doom, Tomb of Thunder for Quake, and surprisingly torn between two Build worlds: Aftershock's and Alien Armageddon's. I'm having fun alternating between two different eras of "Bombshell".

>>10971000
Proposing this for the OP of the next thread.

>>10971176
i don't know how it was at launch, but i played it a while back and i thought it was a pretty good game besides the technical issues you should know to expect from streum on
it's basically touched-up EYE combat with a side of doom eternal, it doesn't have EYE's longevity but the moment-to-moment interaction feels a lot better
you can rig up rough equivalents to most of EYE's weapons, i had a particularly good time carrying two double shotguns with slugs to have a bearkiller with extra steps

>>10971013
I'm slowly playing through Sunlust. Very slowly, to keep at least some sanity. Too late to drop it.

I'm up to level 7 in Doom 64 and am having a good time so far

I'm about to try Plutonia 2 with Lt. Typhon, and then PRCP with Extinction Warrior: Typhon.

Need to think of stuff to play with Ash, Gammu, and Gumboald.

The wordcloud has spoken, this is the next project

>>10971679
>SUPER super shotgun
In my book that’s another name for the BFG

>>10971681
What would that even incorporate? Tyson maps? Replacing every weapon with some kind of a pistol?

underdoom.wad

It says "hard" is supposed to be the UV equivalent, but I'm finding ammo management way harder. Everything beyond zombie and sargent replacements seem pretty tanky, and I'm running out of ammo. Pistol starts seem like they'd be impossible. For the shotgun duo, I've found blasting them once with a shotgun to kill the shotgunner part, then killing the doll that chases after with the handgun to be effective.
Are you expected to use the chainsaw or fists much more frequently? I'd like to stick to vanilla weapons if possible.

>>10971690
I found that the best way to play Angelic Aviary is to use a different enemy mod.

>>10971685
Big Fucking Pistol 9000

>>10971524
Probably wanted to do something more focused with her. I've only tried them out for a little bit but the first mod very much seems like a kitchen sink thing.

Lets imagine that in Doom(2) the Baron of Hell and the Hellknight were combined into one monster slot, and a new monster was added in the empty place. What would you have that monster be and how/why would it compliment the rest of the roster?

Are demons worse than switch puzzles?

I'd solve her switch puzzle, if you know what I mean.

>>10971938
Depends on the demon and what you classify as a demon
Is a switch puzzle worse than one imp? He’s fine, nah.
Is a switch puzzle worse than the demon that starts post wars about pistols starts? Not at all, and that demon kinda sucks.

>>10971951
I'd let her flip my switch puzzle.

Why do I enjoy this so much more than Doom/Doom 2?
I'm not even really into fantasy stuff either

>>10972024
>from the publisher of
the fuck kind of selling point is that, publishers don't develop games

>>10972024
The items, probably. Tomes of power add a lot of mechanical depth and allow things like the wand to be really stronk. Being able to activate healing items and blur when you actually need them is a lot more convenient. Plus the monster roster is fun.

I just wish the sound design was better. There's so much damn grunting and growling it all just runs together.

>>10972014
Based.

>>10972024
Items add a lot of functionality and also help a lot given the weapon loadout feels a lot less punchy than Doom's. Stuff like Tome of Power or Morph Ovum are really fun to use.

>>10972014

>>10972024
Atmosphere's pretty neat even if the general monster set isn't the best and some of the weapons fall off the mark.

It's bosses having more complexity to them doesn't hurt either.

>>10972031
>publishers don't develop games
At the time most did, the industry wasn't the growth-obsessed safe bet shit it is today.

>>10972049
studios make games, a publisher might own a studio that makes games but they're fundamentally different entities

you wouldn't credit a publisher for writing a book that they published

>>10972054
id published and made games, Sierra published and made games, Epic Megagames published and made games.

It was treated as a sort of curation process, if a half-decent company published something, it probably wasn't going to be shit.

In this case, id published Heretic, Hexen and Hexen 2.

I want to thank that Anon who recommended Doom 2 Re-Build-T here a long ass time ago. It was a great time with Nobody told me about ID.
Shame it's unfinished.

>>10972031
>the fuck kind of selling point is that, publishers don't develop games

Modern 3D Realms feels very relevant to your point. People do the same thing blindly for many developers as well.

Who's this demon

>>10971709
>what would you have that monster be?
A spectre-like floating ghost nigga that buffs nearby monsters, essentially turning on FastMonsters in a radius around it. There could be some kind of a limitation to it like he needs to see you and ''scream'' for it to activate for a time so he doesn't just turn chaingunners etc into instant death lasers haha.

It's actually a function I would've wamted for Redneck Rampage, making those Alien Vixens or a hotter and rarer variant make enemies faster and deadlier as well as custom lines like ''If we get him she'll reward us!'' and such maybe with more innuendo as well as seductive ''Go get 'im boys'' lines for the Vixen. But you asked for Doom so haha.

>>10971938
What do you use for reference pics etc? I need work on my drawing but I want to good reference for anime girl faces. And what are you doodling on? Software and Hardware. Nice artwork btw

>>10972206

>>10972049
>industry wasn't growth-obsessed
Yawn, this is another naive and false ''le old times better''-take that is disconnected from reality. Pretty much every sane business would want to grow so they can make more money and ergo have more failsafe so a single blunder doesn't sink them.

>>10972054
>>10972031
How is it possible to be this much of a dense knucklehead? Publisher name can be a general seal of quality and set a tone for what you can roughly expect. If it's a relatively new developmemt studio and people don't have that much idea on what they have developed tying it back to something recognizable is pretty nice.

>>10972235

>>10972261

????????
No one was disputing that. But great things and services are being done today too so idk what you're even getting at.

>Keep on coping, corpo-simp
Ahahaha is that supposed to be an insult or something?

>>10972119
Might've been me, and yeah it's a wonderful time, I just wish it didn't seem to have been dropped.

>>10972261
It's funny seeing people pull the "no it was always like this" card with regards to id, like it wasn't just a handful of dudes back then making what they thought was cool compared to being a subsidiary of a megacorp or a subsidiary of an even bigger one.

>>10972220
Interesting idea, I find myself only playing with fastmonsters these days as I feel like the projectiles move way to slow without it.

One possible idea I had was a monster that screamed at the player when they got close. This would enrage all the enemies in the area to aggro on the screamer, but this would then cause enemies to aggro to the player after the screamer was killed.

>>10972303
Id Software was not specifically discussed and Id Software was an exception and not the rule. A lot of things had to line up right for Id Software to land the opportunities they did to be able to operate in an independent manner.

If anything in the modern day small developers with taken have even more power because of crowdfunding / hybrid funding models and more accessible distribution channels / thanks to the internet the devs don't even be in the same country to be able to do teamwork.

>>10972350
>Id Software was not specifically discussed
The entire fucking stupid argument is because id published Heretic.

I'm new to playing custom Doom levels. I like Smooth Doom, but how do I know if a given megawad will conflict with it? Is there a way to automatically check that a wad doesn't have custom monsters or weapons? Or is the best I can do just read the what the author mentions in the release info/shows in screenshots?

>>10972416
Get Slade, open it with Slade, look for decorate stuff that changes monsters and weapons, look for sprites that replace the original ones.

Worst case just try it and see what fucks up.

sonic_the_hedge.wad

>>10972421
It is obvious when a graphic mod like Smooth or Beautiful Doom conflicts? I assumed it would just override it without me noticing.

>>10972430
>It is obvious when a graphic mod like Smooth or Beautiful Doom conflicts?
Smooth Doom adds more frames so depending on load order you might notice some from one mod and some from the other.

or if you do something like run it with Augur Zenith, you'd notice torches in weird places and maybe floating plasma balls or something that turn into nazis when they take damage.

>>10972041
I love wartrophies

Just have replayed City of lost children again, this time with fast monsters and nicely looking victorian-like gun.

It’s a succubus from an old ass h doujin by inu that I liked the design of and draw all the time. Danbooru has her under the tag Nira_(character).
>>10972220
I draw on a cheap thirty dollar PenPad and use either Clip Studio if I’m feeling fancy or an old version of MyPaint for sketches (free).

If you need a reference find a waifu you like on Danbooru to copy and or watch some artist people in yiutube or twitch.

>>10972232
Yeah Purgatori is a big reason why I like Quake II. The original source comic is ok but the character design ported into the game is what i first found.

DOOM frontend for Dwarf Fortress

>>10972552
wouldn't that just be minecraft but worse?

>>10972119
I came across this which is kind of trying the same thing but it's definitely not on the same quality level, has a metric fuckton of invisible walls and shit.

https://www.moddb.com/games/doom-ii/addons/doom-2-oxon-remastered

>>10972443
Just tested Pirate Doom with Smooth loaded before and then I tried it loaded after. With both there's no obvious fucked up graphics to tell me there's conflicts.

>>10972568
Go summon a cacodemon or something, watch it's sprites swap from one to the other during it's attack animations.

>>10972546

>>10972669
>what if doomguy was japanese
Then you have to spend an extra hour on each level grinding enemies for more XP by running in circles until you're spontaneously teleported to a combat arena where you have to defeat four demons who are lined up and take turns attacking you. Otherwise you won't be able to kill the new demons on the next map.

This makes me wonder why the Genesis never got a Wolfenstein 3D port. Apparently this port is a raycaster too, no fancy tricks.

>>10973126
The way the previous level started slowly transforming into hell was great too.

I'm enjoying Ashes 2063, but I can't fucking talk to anyone (except the thugs) in town. I'm pressing 'Use' on this guy. I can talk to his guards, but no him or any of the other merchants

>>10973160
Not that anon but I assume you're using GZDoom. Fiddle with the options menu.

>>10973112
It's an interesting thought. I suspect that like many homebrewed ports, this makes use of some technical knowledge which was less common at the time, possibly also methods for compression which didn't yet exist then either.

The Genesis as a machine can clearly handle a very faithful port of Wolfenstein 3D without getting extra help from the 32X or Sega CD, I always thought this was a cool one, but I wonder how realistic it would have been back then.
I'm not deep into this kind of knowledge, so I could be a fucking retard who's wrong, but I'm assuming there's some real reasons this one never happened.

Possibly it could be publishers being fucking fags and not being interested, remember how Lobotomy Software made a port of Quake for the Saturn? They also developed basically that same port for the Playstation as well, and they shopped it around, but no publisher took any interest in it so it just sat.

>>10971252
Fucking love Boris man. Saw them live last year with The Melvins (honestly they stole the show, especially considering the equipment Takeshi's guitar was hooked up to stopped working for about 15 minutes).

>>10972608
>true just not in a positive way
Not everyone was 'le cynical gamer' back in the day and I honestly think people these days are way too cynical about gaming in general but besides the point :

If you played Duke Nukem 3d and then saw Shadow Warrior or Blood and they had the 3drealms logo in there somewhere that's a seal of some kind of significance. Or old Electronic Arts / Activision / Capcom published games.

It's of course not the only selling point but internet as is was not nearly as informative back in the day even if you had access so it's not like you go online and find all of the things the studio had been working on and in a lot of cases the publisher has had a longer track record in publishing cool titles than whatever developer had making games.

>>10973167

>>10973205
Ah, I must've tweaked those settings months ago, trying to fix the light levels and never noticing the difference. I still can't talk to anyone except the thugs. I tried messing with the load order, but it turns out that I had it right the first time.

>>10973205

what are some megawads that you consider genuinely overrated? i don't get the hype for pic rel desu.
there's some cool levels here and there like the one where the automap is a comic page, map28, map29, and few others, but overall i found it meh and amateurish. supposedly most of the authors were first time mappers and it truly feels like it.
it's really just a case of >thing >thing, Japan aint it

I think it's funny how despite Erik Alm being one of the most influential and respected doom mappers ever, the only image people use of him is one where he's cleary drunk and half his face is asleep.
I also think it's interesting how sometimes I'll be watching the dsda stream and a demo featuring Alm or some other influential mapper like Ribbiks will come up. I didn't know before these people speedran, I guess it just comes from a general appreciation of the game.
>>10973256
I believe aaliens is very good, but still overrated in a literal sense because ayyliens are funny and the palette looks cool.

Eviternity easily. Carried almost solely by Ola's talent, both as an artist and as a mapper.
Dragonfly maps are barely above average, and the over-reliance on teleporting everything to the player turns each map into a set of isolated encounters Zoom(2016)-style instead of actually fleshed-out believable maps.

>>10973330

>Modern 3D Realms feels very relevant to your point.
I would say there's a difference between brand and company acquisitions. 3D Realms was the latter. Similarly to the likes of Raven and Epic, they're still that same old legal entity and that's really the only way it should matter in... whatever way that matters.
If anything, nu-Apogee fits like a glove here as they've been going very hard on this obnoxious nostalgia baiting in the last few years. For all the stupid and embarrassing faults of 3DR, their cursed existence of recent years revolved mostly around newer things with a couple of exceptions. Trying(?) and failing to do what many people want all gaming companies to do nowadays, which is move forward.
Just don't praise the brand. It's that simple.
>People do the same thing blindly for many developers as well.
Oh yeah. And that's probably even worse than brands, but it's likely more situational.

>>10973573
I absolutely agree that maps doesn't have to be "believable" in any way. In fact that would probably actually made Eviternity better, if it had more chaos to it.
In Eviternity though the architecture itself is very believable and grounded, the texturing is perfectly logical and grounded, plus each mini-episode follows the same consistent, once again "grounded" visual theme. And then the monsters are just magically slapped on top of these maps after every single switch/key, it feels like a wasted opportunity. To me it ruined the whole "themed mini-episodes" idea because every theme boils down to mindlessly teleporting the monsters to you, they are supposed to be different episodes yet they all feel the same.

>10973538

Oh SHIT hell yes.

Does anyone here know how to edit reverbs in ZDoom/GZDoom? Some fucking moron who defined them made it so that most reverb effects are only applied to sounds if they are about 70 units away or closer. Even the fucking outdoor ones. And ZDoom is capable of applying these effects further so it's not a limitation.

But, when I tried to edit the standard definitions, i couldn't get it to work. I don't understand the descriptions of the parameters and fiddling around and changing values randomly did not yield much results. So if anyone here can point me to the specific paramater that I need to change to increase reverb distance, please let me know.

>To me it ruined the whole "themed mini-episodes" idea because every theme boils down to mindlessly teleporting the monsters to you.
“Mindlessly teleporting monsters” reminds me of that part in Suburbs or Slayer. Eviternity did not often feel as “mindless”, and when it did it was a fun dumb caco cloud.
It reads more to me like you find levels less “believable” when monsters are teleported in. Is it just a concern with Eviternity? Lost Civilization also teleports enemies in a lot of the time and I find the levels no less fascinating or “believable”.

>>10974043
I would torture him

>>10974043
Is that an archvile in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

>>10974093
Haven't played Lost Civ yet. It's not like teleported monster are the problem in Eviternity, it's how a lot of maps (feels like most of them) barely have any monsters pre-placed on them.
50 monsters already on the map and another 50(100,150) teleported? Perfectly okay, you stirred up the hive and dealing with consequences now.
5 monsters on the map and another 50(100,150) teleported? That's bullshit territory in my book. Why is the level so empty? Once again, that's not a problem per se, but almost EVERY level feels empty.

For example antares031's map is one of my favorite because it has both.
Gossamer is one of my least favorite maps even though Mechadon is a great mapper, but the level itself is completely barren.
Elysium is a great map, even though it's barren and relies on teleports as well. That's because the map itself feels like a surreal set of encounters, you're literally fling between multiple arenas, it's a journey, a set of challenges, it's believable till the very last imp.
And the best Eviternity map just have ~200 carefully pre-placed imps (among other monsters) shooting at you ass. It has half a thousand lost souls that not just magically teleport to some vague area in front of you because the mapper was too lazy, you can literally see the huge fucking building in the middle of the map opening its windows and all the souls charging towards you. Archviles are not magically teleported because you touched some vague "prepare your anus" linedef, they are locked in cages, they're guarding the key, and there's a bunker that was explicitly built for the specific purpose of dealing with them when they get out of cages. Seriously, I can suck this map till humanity run out of computers to run Doom. Ola is genius.

Duke Nukem Forever is coming. Mortal men may not craft him, gods might not live long enough to play him, the very universe itself may fold under his might, but he will come and there will not be a toilet big enough to park his bricks in.
You can all dance around in your ignorance, your pithy idea that mere financial mechanisms of mere men can stop him. That simply because nobody is there to craft the one true creator, the he cannot rise from his own rest is reason to assume he will never return is pure lunacy. Duke Nukem Forever is Forever.

>romero orders carmack to add ladders
what changes

>>10974510
The timeline alters in such a way that Valve's games have better ladders.

>>10974509
Nice.

>>10974510
Gameplay-wise a ladder is just a shitty elevator that takes away the controls.

Say, was there ever something like a list to all the references of Sky May Be? Mainly the sound clips.

>>10974510
Just make stair steps with the length of 1 and hide them behind a midtex ladder.

Tried a bunch of stuff lately.
Bikini Bottom Massacre is a funny concept and Spongebob themed graphics work surpisingly well with Doom engine but i didn't like the WAD itself.
Maybe it's only an UV issue but the author is way too stingy with ammo during the later levels considering the amount of HP sponges(huh) being thrown at you.

>>10974603
I mostly just remember hating the fuck out of the turrets it starts using in later levels.

>>10974510
Very little, Plutonia already features workable sector ladders.

>>10974603
Corporate Division with Pandora's Wrath weapon + enemy mod.
Love these type of maps that are filled to the brim with small details, cool level.
Need to play a bit more Pandora's Wrath to form an opinion on it but so far it's pretty neat.
>>10974607
I think the moment these turrets gets introduced marks the moment the whole WAD rapidly turns into "That's just annoying!".
Dropped it at the Rock Bottom level. Cool visuals can't save it.

>>10974603
You like Brutal Doom, don't you Squid/vr/ard?

Bros, Quake 2 is really fucking growing on me. I might like this better than Quake 1. Early in The Reckoning right now.

>>10974501
It was kind of hard to tell where to go. It is kind of neat to be able to go wherever you like from the start, but I'd rather have say half the area be blocked off and find a way to get around it (say, rooftops) than just free roaming, especially without conveniences like automap or compass.

Kinda wished there was a big gun shop that had a good assortment of gear that you could puzzle your way into early on and get enough stuff to deal with the various encounters. I couldn't find any secrets. Ammo was tight. Battles and exploring didn't feel super interesting. It did feel like wandering around a city block, but... if there were interesting sights and fights to find I just couldnt come across them.

>>10974645
I thought using Nashgore would make this mod funnier.
>>10974638
Iron Snail + An Evening Stroll in Venice
This one of those very pretty but small maps that is essentially one monster arena.
Metal Slug themed mod is pretty cool tho, want to try playing something a bit a bigger with it.

>playing ultimate doom, somewhere in episode 3 I don't remember
>fall into nukage pit
>nothing to do but either load a save or let it slowly kill me
When do wads stop doing this? I'd like to skip to that part.

>>10974638
I fucking loved Corporate Division, I went out of my way to find the mapper's other maps after that.
>>10974638
>I think the moment these turrets gets introduced marks the moment the whole WAD rapidly turns into "That's just annoying!".
>Dropped it at the Rock Bottom level. Cool visuals can't save it.
I think that's where I dropped it the first time too, it feels like that's where it loses it's charm/novelty.

>>10974667
Hotel of the Dead + Dark Passenger mod.
The map is pretty alright. Has a few annoying parts like a hard to find turn you need to take in order to get yellow skull key.
Dark Passenger is neat but i wouldn't call it my favourite weapon's mod.

Vila Chaves - witch's flakes candy + Apocalypse Task Force mod + Hell From Earth enemy mod.

Idk but I lucked out by purchasing Quake 2 OG on Steam uhhh I forgot exactly when but it was maybe a year before the Remaster came out and it cost me like 1,24e and I got updooted to the Rememester for free.

And I also started Ion Fury Aftershock finally. It's really good so far, I am liking the new power-ups and it's more fun than just finding some shitty radar. I'm a little worried tho' because the percentage of people getting even the initial progression trophies is pretty low but maybe it's because AfterShock integrates to the base game idk. I also miss the basegame IF main menu but I guess it can be re-enabled somewhere.

>>10974186
>That's bullshit territory in my book. Why is the level so empty?
I can imagine they’re preparing an elaborate ambush.
It might help if I viewed non-teleporting enemies as having more inherent “believability” or “realism”, but I don’t so I’m fascinated at how much it seems to offend.

Any updates on Vertex Relocation?

Third level of Curse of DSparil is very solid too. I spent some time in "where the hell should I go now" mode, but in general progression was really natural. And the final fight with 2 Iron Liches (on difficulty 1 was fun). Also found that enabling Fast Monsters makes Heretic battles much more enjoyable, because even Nitrogolems and Imps can cause troubles in this mode.

Just tried Lumoria for Halo 1. The voice acting and that attempt at a story are pretty cringe, but the levels and combat encounters are about as top-tier as Halo 1 can get. Some of the vehicle sections end a bit abruptly, but otherwise they're great.
I guess mapping for Halo must be pretty hard since you rarely see singleplayer stuff that isn't an attempt to overhaul the vanilla campaign, and most of what you do get is very jank.

When it comes to Quake 1 you're better off loading the BSP into Trenchbroom as a model (via misc_model or an equivalent entity) and using it as an overlay to remake stuff by hand. No actual brush data is saved (unlike Quake 2 and 3), so decompiling gives you a mess of oddly shaped brushes and potentially fucked texture alignment.

>>10975434
Texture alignment hasn't been an issue in like 5 years, and any wonky brush data could just be handwaved away as func_detail. A non-issue to be desu.

It's an ancient, cheap tablet that's no longer sold or driver supported, but imo you can get just about anything thats twenty or thirty US$ and it should be able to do anything this thing can.

Also if you're just starting, dont worry about being hyper accurate and detailed, just draw simple shapes, cartoony eyes and basic proportions and shapes. Once you get used to blasting out a figure that doesnt look like a hideous orangutang with anime hair focus on improving things bit by bit. If you fuck up don't bother with erasers, just start a new sketch.

Even better is to sometimes grab a ballpoint pen and sketch out on junk mail envelopes, scratch paper, amazon boxes. Try different pens, papers, and even drawing programs. I keep MyPaint 1.0.0 because it's very lightweight and lets me quickly save a sketch as a scrap and I can come back to it later if I feel like it.

Catbox is amazing for convenience, but MEGA and mediafire are also good. Man I remember when people jerked off zippyshare. I always knew they were going to go under. Faggots.

>>10976313
>Man I remember when people jerked off zippyshare.
I remember rapidshare and megaupload.

>>10976250

>>10976320
Well megaupload is just mega now.

Sheeeeeeeeeeeit. I remember downloading games in like 49 parts via rapidshare. What times those were.

Don't forget to seed for your fellow Doomheads across the globe.

Do someone have the WAD for Beyond Sunset? It runs on gzdoom. I don't want to buy it

It’s a quick switch if the screens are in the .art files but I’m still figuring things out, right now messing around with these skins even if it makes her a head too short.

>>10976364
/doom/ has video game lovers from all walks.

>>10975953
Yeah I think it really needs more polish. That and if you want someone going through a bunch of maps multiple times with different characters to unlock everything; you should probably make the maps smaller.

I grabbed Alien Armageddon alongside this.

>>10976124
I still want to see her and Lady Death together.

It's sounding like TiberiumSoul (the developer of Insanity's Requiem) has died.

Fuck.

sorry guys, doomshack is down and I'm technologically tarded. Is the issue that it's dropbox or that it's linked through DB? Anyways, here's a catbox link, hopefully this will suffice, lmk- https://files.catbox.moe/qddx6i.zip

Wacom Intuos S. Mind you I don't know shit about whether it's good or not but a lot of reviews are happy with it and it works for me.

And a notebook, pens and coloring pens when I'm not on my main battlestation.

I'll give that a google

>>10976415
It's come up in a bunch of places but here's the last two i saw.

>I keep MyPaint 1.0.0 because it's very lightweight and lets me quickly save a sketch as a scrap and I can come back to it later if I feel like it.
I keep several old versions of Paint Shop Pro around for a similar reason, shit's nice to have something where the UI isn't taking up 40% of the screen.

>>10976413

No prob. You may quote 40oz here https://doomer.boards.net/thread/3301/eldritch-voyage
to see how he put the link as plain text, it should be something like dropbox link. Rewriting &dl=0 to &dl=1 in the dropbox link also allows everyone to skip the site and its prompts right for the direct download. Both are considered good practice, don't beat yourself up if you don't get it.

Are the tablets with the screens worth it? Also would it be better to get something larger?

>>10974907
>plain old software WinQuake even on a modern system
Still need to patch it to play mp3.

Is there a list of everything in the Doom Quickstart?

>>10976470
That's the real Floppy Quake experience.
Or you can just mount a disc image.

>>10976470
Who even uses mp3 for Quake? And most importantly why, when it has zero benefits over ogg when it comes to Quake, and ogg has been supported by every single port since forever.

>>10976517
Loads of custom maps use mp3s because that's what the music used was available in, and why bother converting to ogg when mp3 works.

A few related questions if some helpful lad could chime in...
Is Ironwail pretty much the total successor to Quakespasm?
Arcane Dimensions recommended a custom altered version of Quakespasm to support some new features (rain, I think, and increased entity counts). Is Ironwail compatible with all this?
Which AD map was it that had the rain exactly?

>>10976542
>Is Ironwail pretty much the total successor to Quakespasm?
Yes, and a custom version is included for Mjolnir, the next big Quake mod like AD. But QS gets updated on occasion and Ironwail is still missing certain features relative to AD
>Arcane Dimensions recommended a custom altered version of Quakespasm to support some new features (rain, I think, and increased entity counts).
like these. vkQuake actually can do those special visuals Arcane Dimensions has, but vkQuake was abandoned.
>Which AD map was it that had the rain exactly?
Hmm, don't remember.

>>10973170
It's such a damn shame PSX didn't have Quake 1, it probably would've ran better than it did on Saturn.

>>10976398
I’ve been playing a combo of William Gee’s mappack and AA. I’ve gone through his Abyss set and am about to finish his Space episode. It’s been hard to put down, some of the most fun I’ve had with Duke.
>>10976407
I’m also a baby: There are a couple spoilers I want to avoid so I’m not scrolling all the way down the art file just yet. I’m also a different anon and kinda like the Aftershock menu.
>>10976556
>vkQuake actually can do those special visuals Arcane Dimensions has, but vkQuake was abandoned.
Recent computer updates have made it act real wonky with AD and Mjolnir. I’m bummed and will have to finally let go.

>>10976596
>Recent computer updates have made it act real wonky with AD and Mjolnir. I’m bummed and will have to finally let go.
That's a great shame. Ironwail is still getting commits, maybe in a year or so it'll get a big update bringing in stuff from vkQuake.

Congestion 1024 Map 23 cannot be finished anymore on GZDoom 4.10, as Doomguy is now too thick to fit through a door. For some reason.

He got jealous of Daina.

>>10976635
works if you set the "disable MBF21 features" compatflag

>>10976635
As anon says, GZDoom has compatibility flags.

>>10976635
Same thing happens in Woof on default settings, by the way. Seems to be something that MBF21 fucked up, not GZDoom specifically.

>>10976681
Is there one that makes it compatible with lilith.pk3?

>>10976684
>>10976681
>>10976670
Thanks. I never bothered with compatibility options before.

>>10976696
Yeah but only I know where it is. Dare you enter my magical realm?

>>10976723
but the code is open

>>10976490
You can mount .bin, but it's absolutely useless for WinQuake because starting from Win7 Bill Gayts broke CD tracks looping.

Man I hope I age that well.

>>10976850
Eh. Seems fairly typical.

does descent count? if so, whats the best way to play it?

>>10976862
>does descent count?
I’m fine with that and MechWarrior. DXX-Rebirth is a good port for Descent 1 and 2.

>>10976596
>I’m also a baby
Huh?
>There are a couple spoilers I want to avoid
To be fair, there's not really all that much to avoid. I'm a story/lore dork when it comes to games and, despite really loving Ion Fury, won't say I had to pay a whole lot of attention to its narrative since there's not really that much you can go with in grand scheme of things.
>I’m also a different anon and kinda like the Aftershock menu.
I like the art itself, but was honestly quite bummed that they didn't get something closer to the original. You know, something that would feel like made for the game specifically and not just the key art transported into it. Although I believe that the main menu art was done in similar manner.

That's rather quick, not gonna lie.
>>10976862

Anons talk about the series every once in a while. And Descent might be getting brought up in the next few days from the looks of it.

once doomguy realized that the base had been invaded he could've just left, but instead he decided to escalate the situation leading to hundreds of unnecessary deaths, likely spurred on by anti-demon rhetoric he read on social media

Thoughts on fast monsters?

They're fast.

The worst crime modern shooters commit is cleaning up aftwer you so you can't backtrack to admire the carnage

>>10973256
I think it's the best out of all the community projects i playedwhich weren't all that many but still
It had the most memorable maps that I can still recall 2 years later while I can't remember a single one from say community chest 4 while having played that just last month

>>10976969
This could have been a line in Eternal.

>>10973442
I played a lot of Sam before tryig DOOM and I actually really disliked monster infighting at first, really wanted to kill things personally lol

>zomg 10 cacowards out of 10, virtually best Doom wad ever made, skillsaw's combat is the best on this planet, you're just bad at video games if you're not enjoying it, skill issue
The more Doom I play the less I understand why are all these wads get fanatically praised and venerated so much.

>>10976910
>To be fair, there's not really all that much to avoid.
I don’t care much about the story either but I’d rather not have seen what happens to the GDF guy. I’m also very happy that I went into arranged/mirror mode not know they fixed the final fight with an actual boss enemy.
>>10977025
I don’t know about some of the other big names but I’ve enjoyed Skillsaw’s stuff.

>>10974026

>Pick up key
>Deep hurting

>>10977025
i still am enjoying the maps and they are mostly great and interesting with clear ideas about what the dev wants you to do... it's just whenever it's like "and then suddenly a billion guys spawn on top of you" it takes me out of that. it'd probably be fine if i was simply better at the game though i guess.

i will say also that whenever i go back and replay a wad that has a lot of that, i have more fun because i already know what to expect and remember vaguely how to deal with it.
