Not even, it actually just happens that some cock just keeps hacking the server it's on coincidentally

Does anyone know any basic piece of audio software I can use to double the volume of a sound-file without horribly distorting it?

Audacity won't let me do it for some reason.

http://vocaroo.com/i/s0heDupS2DT1

>>1954801
That's because you can't do that. If it clips (the distortion) then you are literally hearing the sound go past how loud it can be.

Use the compressor in Audacity, it will do what you want.

>>1954946

Bit more than just the Duke 3D pistol, actually. There's a whole ton of things in that I frankensprited together.
There's the Doom 3 shotgun, the Shadow Warrior rocket launcher, the Shadow Warrior Uzi, the NAM Assault Rifle, the Unreal flak cannon, a grenade launcher from some half-life mod, the Blood tommygun, some of Mike's hands, and a lot of chewing gum.

I'll fix that cut line, though.

>>1954978
My point is the pistol bottom sticks out, doesn't fit with the rest

>>1954807
Assume I'm a complete retard in terms of working with audio software (because I am), what exactly is it that the compressor does? How do I use it? There's a bunch of sliders, but they don't seem to actually -DO- anything whenever I use them.

>>1954974
>new outside textures
>inside of store still looks the same
Those visuals clash pretty horribly.

>>1954974
I'll grab the sprites from MSX Badass Enemies Pack tomorrow and start on the grenadiers. Probably gonna grab the gas actors from one of the FKER Pain Elemental replacements to make the grenade.

>>1954992
Mike's working on it. Those textures will be replaced Soon™.

>>1954989
First you have to select the entire sound (drag the mouse cursor from start to finish) because the effects in Audacity don't do shit unless you select a sound

Or you could just upload it and let me figure it out; I'm a musician and have plenty of experience with this shit

>>1954974
The hand is just awful. It's because you're using what is obviously the top of a marine arm for the "bottom," the inside of even Robin Williams' arms wouldn't be that hairy, and the angle is all wrong

The hand looks okay but the arm needs replaced ASAP

Oh, all right. I'll see if I can find something else to slap on it, thanks.

>The hand is just awful.
I know, I made the point that half of the graphics are ugly as shit, if any of you want to, feel free to make them not shit.

>It's because you're using what is obviously the top of a marine arm for the "bottom," the inside of even Robin Williams' arms wouldn't be that hairy, and the angle is all wrong
Yeah, it made more sense back... 2 or 3 years ago when I didn't know what the fuck I was doing, and I looked at it and thought "yeah, looks good enough, lol"

>The hand looks okay but the arm needs replaced ASAP
I honestly think the hand looks like shit too.
I literally just drew over and pasted over the original AvP arms because there was no way I could make any of the original Doom arms and hands fit in a good manner. If you look at the gun itself on the last few pump-frames, it looks blurry, atrocious, and off in scale.

My logic was basically, you'd never really get a good look on some of the frames because of how they'd move over the screen quickly.

Right from the last thread:
>>1953990
>It's not a stereo sound file, is it? I think zdoom has issues with stereo sound volume. I guess it makes sense, if a sound is only coming from a single point, who's to say where the left and right channels go?
>Try making the sound mono.

So I assumed you'd already done that but I open the fucking file up and what do I fucking see

Here's what you do
> Click on the triangle next to where it says SHOTPUMP
> Click "split stereo to mono"
> Click the X next to either one of the tracks, it literally doesn't matter
> save

>>1955032
Gank an arm from this, the shotgun reload frame is perfect

so i have oblige set to run with a batch file using the a config file, in the config it clearly states "episode," it overwrites the same oblige wad every time i run the batch, and then i use other batch files to boot certain gameplay mods with the same oblige file.
i wouldn't think that the batch files have anything to do with this, but why does oblige only generate one map instead of a full episode? after i beat the first map i just go straight to Underhalls, the E1M2 map from doom2

I think you're under the assumption that just one person is doing this.

Maybe we oughta put it in a GitHub, like what Mike12 did with DemonSteele.

>>1955096
This is a community project. If we don't push out our individual changes quickly, other people are going to be overwriting everything with their own changes.

>>1955106
how are you not stomping on each other?

are you organising it so only one person works on the file at once?

if two people make a change independently someone is going to get their work stomped on

>>1955109
>>1955136
The thing about a GitHub is that anyone who wants to contribute would have to be approved by someone else. As it as, anyone who wants to add something can, without any approval needed. If someone makes a shitty addition, like a Terry map or something blatantly unfitting, then we just work off the previous release. It's not exceptionally well-organized, but it's worked well so far.

>>1955162
Allright so those of you hacking on it can carry on and the rest of us will ignore you? Fair enough

>>1955162
>The thing about a GitHub is that anyone who wants to contribute would have to be approved by someone else.

What? No. If you put those people in the dev group, they wouldn't need approval at all.

>>1955162
What, you can't set a GitHub up to be open for anyone to commit a change?
Shit.

Anyone got any other ideas?

>>1955070
>I can't fucking believe this
I told you I was retarded.

>Click on the triangle next to where it says SHOTPUMP

It's already mono though. I think you were looking at the wrong file, that's the original one I sent for comparison.

>>1955167
>If you put those people in the dev group
And that requires approval of whoever's in charge of the GitHub, no?

>>1955080
anybody know what the deal is here?

>>1955168
Why would you want to do that? If somebody wants to make a change they fork the repo and change their fork. If it's good you can merge it with the original. You don't let random strangers commit whatever malware or shitty code they like into the official repo without checking it.

>>1955184
Good point. I'm only vaguely familiar with the way Github works.

How easy is it to track forks, though? Does the owner of the master branch get an alert whenever someone forks it?

>>1955174
yeah doomshits are faggots

Sprite-rippers never cease to amaze me with that shit.

>>1955235
You want a .wad that replaces the sprites and animations of the chaingun with one of the old Alpha/Beta sprites while maintaining it's sound, damage, spread and rate of fire?

I can hook you up bro.

>>1955238
I can understand it for games where ripping is actually difficult, like if the game's files are all encrypted or some shit. But Doom? Come the fuck on.

>>1955238
>>1955241

The best ones are those that intentionally fuck with the sprites in some way so that they can identify "their" rips and then chew the fuck out of people for "stealing" them.

See: The extra pixels of height on the Revenant.

>>1955240
>sound
i would like that changed too

>>1955250
Well what kind of sound?
Like the SMG in Quake 2? A low profile, yet satisfying, high-pitched popping noise?
Or a loud, quasi-realistic, echo-y noise, like an old German MP40 ringing out shots across the ruined streets of Berlin?

>>1955249
>The extra pixels of height on the Revenant
But that's just being a fucking dipshit, who does that?

>>1955249
the funniest one i saw was a sprite sheet from freedoom. freedoom, where all the sprites are available as gif files from https://github.com/freedoom/freedoom/ to anyone with a web browser...

>See: The extra pixels of height on the Revenant.
which revenant is this (so i know what to avoid)

I feel like there should some explosives in Cyberpunk Shootdown, maybe a limited amount of pipe bombs at the start.

>>1955223
is it a different single map each time?
or is oblige writing the file into a different place to where you're expecting it to be written?

>>1955295
>>1955206
see this batch file contains a relative path, so the location of the output depends on what the current directory is set to when you run it.

>>1955293

Pipebombs, IRA nailbombs, molotov cocktails, or homemade hand grenades.
No rocket launchers/grenade launchers, please. Let's keep it to civilian stuff.

>>1955308
>civilian stuff

It's like a robot's dong.

>>1954789
Having such a tight knit dev team is a double edged sword.

>>1955308
Once we have a pistol replacement, the UMP will probably be moved to a rifleman drop (and likely buffed accordingly, because it's pretty wimpy right now).

This is a slightly updated variant of a previous upload. Still behaves like the chaingun in terms of gameplay, but different gfx and sfx.

>>1955429
That's because Carmack is pretty /fit/.
I think he started working out to pass the time when in juvenile hall or something like that.
Or it was before that.

I think part of the reason was so that he could also beat up bullies. Other people's bullies.

>>1955429

>>1955456

>>1955290
>which revenant is this (so i know what to avoid)

not him but it's impossible not to avoid a bad sprite ripping work since both spritesheets that are laying around are messed up

i think someone did a PSA regarding that. i feel sorry for whoever guy was working on a medieval imp, he was using one of those low-quality sprite rips

>>1955480
but isn't it really trivial to make a sprite sheet

It's simple, instead of actually working they have to force some status quo onto someone else because instead of developing the skills, taking the time and effort into their work, they want to try and force people to get more "diversity" into a work place.

Instead of allowing people to hire for talent, which is what Carmack is looking for, they want to shoehorn people that don't belong in there to have a presence in the industry for the sake of being "diverse" instead of being productive.

Guys help I'm dumb. How do you activate Iron Maiden mode in demonsteele?

>>1955794
Hold attack down then push inventory button.

It's not very good right now though so don't worry too much about it

Do you guys mind checking out my work-in-progress mod?

https://www.dropbox.com/s/8jvlks2qzk74qxy/WIP%20MOD.pk3?dl=0

Bear in mind that it is not complete; only the shotgun, chaingun, pistol, Rocket Launcher, Former Human, Shotgunner, and Imp are replaced, and even the shotgunner replacement isn't finished.

Few things to know:
Choose the "pick me" difficulty below Nightmare, that's the intended difficulty.
It is supposed to be very difficult and not that intended for vanilla doom maps.
The Shotgunner replacement has no sound, yet.

>>1955807

Weapons are so slow. Why on earth are they so slow, like gut-wrenchingly slow.

>>1955807

Well, the slow player speed and super-aggressive enemies means I had a hard time getting out of the very first room.
Also the constant spraying of the zombie replacements would probably be better for a special death than the default death.
Also, the weapons are really quite slow and choppy. I'm having trouble determining when the assault rifle will actually fire--at times I fire it an it doesn't really do anything, and the grenade/shotgun animation could use with a lot more frames.

>>1955832
>>1955836
OK, how's this? I've upped all the attack speeds of weapons and lowered the amount of blood on all monsters.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/v0gesat2ahm5y3f/WIP%20MOD%20V2.pk3?dl=0

>>1955864

Better. Now the deaths feel less like "my fucking gun wasn't ready" and more like "uh wow that's a lot of damage".
What's your overall goal with this? What are you aiming for?

>>1955871
I've been thinking about some sort of cyberpunk mod for a while, and the wave survival one finally made me decide to make it.

Hopefully it'll be kind of like Strife. You know, hub, story, characters, etc.. I want to add in some sort of augments or mods for your character, things like faster running speed, more accuracy, less damage from specific types, all that jazz.

>>1955807
The SMG does not fire nearly as fast as it should.
The pistol also feels slow, compared to what the Zombiemen replacement is using.
The Zombiemen aren't moving enough. They feel less like the zombies in Doom, and more like bullet-sponge turrets.

>>1955910
>The SMG does not fire nearly as fast as it should.
Fixed here >>1955864
>The pistol also feels slow, compared to what the Zombiemen replacement is using
They're using the SMG.
>The Zombiemen aren't moving enough
That's the tradeoff of -fast. Either they move and slide way too much and never fire, or they stand in one place. I'll try to make a solution soon, though.

So regarding that pump-action sound, I managed to fix it.
I turned the sound into stereo.

On a sidenote, Buttsex2 is jawdroppingly fucking beautiful.

OK, just downloaded the latest version.

>Enemies are still doing a massive amount of damage. While the 200 health start is nice, it barely lasts me past the first room on the recommended difficulty. Granted, I'm no pro, but still.

>>1955919
God, I can't wait for Ep3.
And I haven't even finished Ep2.

Also, I'm sitting in that chair.

>>1955925
>>1955917
Also, I played it on HMP instead for a little bit.
In HMP, the Zombiemen slide around all over the place, the Impshotters are still taking as many shotgun blasts as the player usually does, but the game feels less ridiculously unfair.
But, at the same time, by the end of MAP01 I had full ammo in both bullets and shells, and there were shotguns and SMGs lying around everywhere.

>tl;dr: lrn2balance fgt

>>1955925
>it goes one...twothreefour.
That's intentional. The first shot is much more accurate than the rest, making it kind of an early-game sniper.
>Enemies are still doing a massive amount of damage
That's intentional. You're going to have to prioritize targets and duck into cover when fighting groups. Crouch before enemies shoot, the bullets may just go over your head. Also, it's much more difficult originally, as the player only takes half damage coupled with the 200 health start.
>shotgunners that replaced the Imp... cause a bit of confusion for players
That I'm not too concerned about, but I might set it to the Shotgunner eventually.

>>1955937
>HMP, the Zombiemen slide around all over the place
>>1955917
>end of MAP01 I had full ammo in both bullets and shells
I've not gotten around to editing ammo and ammo drops yet so you get too much and they still have the default pickup message. That won't happen later.
>lrn2balance fgt
It's going to happen. This was made just over this weekend.

>>1955936
Yeah! This is awesome!

>>1955954
Hmm... I don't know, are you sure he'll fit?

>>1955940
>odd pattern
>That's intentional
It throws people off. Make the first shot accurate, without a pause.
Not to mention that the pistol is already 100% accurate.
>enemies doing lots of damage
>that's intentional
Okay. Not used to that in a Doom mod. I figured Hideous Destructor was the only mod that'd do that.

>>1955946
>haven't gotten around to editing ammo

Ehh, I'll think about it. I like how it is.

I will!

I wonder why these threads expire so quickly when this board is slow as hell.

>>1954758
What's the deal with that room from an in-universe perspective? Was the moon base on Phobos run by some sort of Sixth Reich?

>>1956038
In-universe everything is normal and that's an easter egg which doesn't count.

Outside-universe everything is too abstract so you shouldn't put too much thought into the structure.

>>1956038
My guess would be that Hell's influence has extended to that part of the base, contorting it into a swastika.

>>1956039
Nothing's that normal in universe, they opened a physical gateway to Hell on one of Mars' moons.

>>1956038
The books say the demons arranged a bunch of computers in that pattern to fuck with the humans.

>>1956049
Why are the demons so good with computers? Shouldn't those spiders be able to walk around without being hardware/software gurus? Shouldn't the Cyberdemon and king spider be able to shoot things without relying on WWII technology?

>>1956027
Because the whole board is in here

>>1956054
The demons are good with computers either because they're aliens or because Hell's keeping up with the technology

>>1956054
>WWII technology
U wot m8? Fully functional mechanical prosthetics is not WWII tech, not to talk about a quadruped mechanical carrier that can walk upright perfectly and not fall over like a floppy dildo.

>>1956027

Not really "that quickly". We post until we reach 500 posts, then it slowly starts fading away.
Earlier on, it was much more active, we'd reach 500 posts every night or so.

>>1956060
Their weapons tech is WWII or even WWI. Not the plasma mini spiders though.

>>1956061
I've seen threads in /tv/ with hundreds of reply? Is each forum limited to a certain number?

Does anyone run this game with a mechanical keyboard or with one of those MAME input cards for the shit that samples at 1000 mhz USB with some crazy CRT nonsense for super-low latency? And if so, is this done for competitive reasons or just for personal quasi-masturbatory WAD running?

>>1956057
They wired a computer with corpses. CORPSES.

>>1956069

Well, yes, 500 replies is also hundreds of replies.
After you reach a certain number of hundreds though (the number of which varies from board to board) the thread starts entering "auto-sage" mode where it can't be bumped.

>>1956060
We had a four-legged, pneumatic vehicle in WWII.

It was experimental, yeah. And the pilots had to operate all four legs manually, which led to mental confusion. But they were able to do it.

>>1956080
So?
They've got magic AND technology. For all we know, those corpses provide liquid cooling for some really advanced processors.

What weapons tech of theirs is WW2?
The chainguns? Maybe, but even by WW1, Germany was experimenting with a 12 barreled 7.92mm gatling weapon running on an electric engine, that could reach a rather staggering rate of fire (when it didn't tear cases during extraction). All the chainguns seem to fire rather slowly though, I'll give you that.

The big fireball cannons on the Mancubi? I don't know about that, those fireballs seem to be able to reach incredibly far.

The small rockets the Revenant fires, that home in on their target and correct their path in flight, seemingly indefinitely? That's some mighty advanced shit.

The big rockets from the Cyberdemon's launcher? It fires pretty fast for a single-barrel getup, and either it has fierce recoil which he soaks up with his muscular might, or the backblast is redirected/dissipated somewhere else.
That's pretty remarkable.

huhuhuh

>The small rockets the Revenant fires, that home in on their target and correct their path in flight, seemingly indefinitely? That's some mighty advanced shit.
Except real homing missiles predict their target's path and intercept it mid-flight, and don't just trail doggedly behind them at less than 30 mph.

It's impressive that they're so small and seem to have infinite fuel, but I think those could be sacrificed for faster speed and better computing.

>>1956118
see>>1956117

>>1956079
>personal quasi-masturbatory WAD running
Probably this.

Input latency in Doom is negligible at this point, because source ports over the years have fucked with the original Tics system (http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/Tic)), especially in ZDoom and its derivatives.
And even an average shitbox and cheapo office LCD in the early 2000s can run software Doom at faster than 35Hz.

I use a mechanical keyboard, a Datacomp DTK121 with Futaba clicky switches, and its fucking awesome. Came with a Baby AT Pentium MMX system one of my college professors gave me a few years ago.
I mainly use it for typing, don't actually game as much as I used to, but Doom I always come back to.

>>1956045
I was mostly talking about what the setting should look like.
And except for the whole demon issue, they didn't just make everything out of whack and abstract.

I do not think you should take map design as what it is supposed to be, I feel that the levels were just made to be levels as well.

>>1956129
Doom has the deepest lore

>>1956152

you know how many sidedefs E1M1 has?

666

>>1956165
Fo real? They would've had to do that on purpose.

It also give an idea for a new mapping challenge/megawad if anyone is up for it. 666 linedefs only. Exactly. Not under, not over.

>>1956183
And every one must be used. No random linedefs without a texture, floor, lighting, or linedef action change.

Hello everybody.

I'm the guy who was working on his first map, a remix of Underhalls. I was away for a long time because I got a back injury that made me unable to sit down properly and I let doom mapping fall by the wayside.

Anyway, I'm back at it now and eventually before I fully release my map I'd love for some of you to test it in a week or two.

Pic related is an old screenshot of it, the large, plain sections at the bottom need to be filled out and the other half of the map isn't being worked on yet.

>>1956185
flat*, floor height*, lighting, linedef action... I mean...

We seem to have more mappers on here than ever before. Could be fun.

>>1956187
Looks like it's mostly scratch rather than remix. Underhalls was the first level I played... Shit was scary when I was a kid. Specially the part where you drop down into the lower area.

>>1956197
I don't know what you mean by scratch man :(

>Specially the part where you drop down into the lower area.

I've got that part drawn out on paper, I'm intending on making that area much larger as it resonated with me quite a bit when I was younger too, like now you're really down on the bowels of it all.

>>1956198
I mean it looks like nearly all of the map is remade from scratch. As in. Not an edit. Though I could just be getting the definition of remix wrong.

It's just nice to see more mapping going on here either way.

>now you're really down in the bowels
Yeah. I always like large changes in map flow when they're pulled off well. Like going from large areas to small ones, or bright to dark. Looking forward to it.

>>1956207
Oh now I get you, well yes you're right it's a remake from scratch but the idea is it follows the same "flow" that underhalls did, like the two map halves, getting the key, finding the super shot gun, that kind of thing.

It would still be very recognizable as underhalls but I'm kind of expanding on the original idea too with more and bigger fights and areas to explore, especially since Doomers have been around the block for so long.

Anyway, thanks buddy

don't mind me, just making people aware this exists

>>1953581

>thread about random project

>>1956473
I could understand them doing it if they had a really strong concept and some maps to show off of their own, so you can see the dev behind it actually knows how to do things instead of be a backseat driver.

>>1956187
the guy who was remaking Underhalls has returned? great news!

>>1956473
>>1956479

thus, doomworld's [newproject] tag. which has fallen out of use, because the lazy idea guys have worked out that instead of saying "my project needs mappers" you can just call it a community project instead.

God these people suck, I actually feel bad for women in tech because you know they're there because they want to be there, but they're hounded by deadbeats who want them to join their sjw cult.

>>1956714
On the top of my head, I'd recommend Scythe2.

>>1955919
Wad?

>>1956714
>>1956735
Didn't Scythe 2 add new enemy types?
I'd still recommend it or the first.

>>1956763

>>1956089
>We had a four-legged, pneumatic vehicle in WWII.

I'll get shit for this and I deserve it but I have to ask a question. Does DOOM 1 and 2 pick up after a certain chapter? I've always tried to play them and they never caught me like Duke 3D or other games. I'm not saying they're bad it's just they didn't catch me. I've always stopped playing before I got super far and I'm wondering if the earlier episodes are regarded as not as good as the later ones

>>1956814

Doom 1 picks up when you get into hell (second episode)

also Doom may not be the game for you anon

>>1956769
You forgot the Afrit baron.

>>1956814
>shitting on Doom 1 E1

I'm sorry my mind can't process this faggotry right now.

>>1956821
Just the pacing always struck me as slow

Can someone explain to me GZdooms settings? What is the fuzz effect? Should the particle number be maxed? Should the settings be sprites&particles or just one?

>>1956835
-Fuzz effect is how Spectres and partial invisibility are displayed, it defaults to 'noise' I believe.
-Personal preference, I've always had it maxed and never had particle based slowdowns.
-Again, personal preference. Sprites only is the 'vanilla' experience.

Most of these settings take effect instantly so you cant try them out easily.

>>1956814
E1 is usually seen as the greatest. Some prefer E2, and I think it's really great and has more interesting themes.
Dunno, I love all three of them, they're the most fun levels of any FPS.

>>1956828
You didn't get far enough to get the chaingun and rocket launcher. By that point, monsters are coming at you from everywhere and shit starts getting tough

Also what difficulty did you play on? The default levels are really balanced around UV so you should be playing on that if you can handle it; if you can't (because you suck) then you can go down to HMP, but any less than that and the game becomes a shooting gallery

>>1956868
I can't remember. I'll try ultraviolence then

>>1956871
Also, if that's still somehow too slow paced, play on -fast

>>1956814
>>1956828

Doom 2 isn't really well-designed at all when it comes to levels, especially in the middle part. If you don't like the earlier levels, you especially will not like the later levels.
For Doom 1, the strongest episodes are generally episode 1, early episode 2, and episode 4. So if you're not enjoying the pace...well, don't force yourself, anon.
Not everyone has to like Doom. Though it would be nice.

How closely do these colors match up?

>>1956916
The left shield is borderline green, the right is more orange

>>1956916

Not at all.
The one on the left is a bright lime green, the one on the right looks like a rotting banana.

>>1956923
>>1956924

Fuck my useless eyes.

Okay what about now

>>1956930

Oh god what have you done to the beautiful colors of the left one
If anything you needed to change the right shield

>>1956930
WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO THE GOOD SHIELD
WHY

>>1956932

I am not changing the colors for 20+ frames. especially with my useless. Useless. colorblindness.

>>1956930

obligatory

>>1956930

Okay, if you're colorblind, then it's probably best to tell you now that what you're trying to do isn't going to work.
See, what >>1956924 said is right. The shield on the right looks like a rotting banana--most importantly, it has a multitude of colors across it. It doesn't just have yellow, it has orange and brown arranged in a miniature pool. That's three different ranges of color.
The shield on the left is just green, and green alone, and it looks like you're trying to shift it to match the shield...while still only using one color range.

Simply put, you're going to need external help for this.

>>1956940

Fuck. I really don't feel like wasting someone's time for the sake of an attack that flashes out so quickly.

Okay so how about I just don't use the godawful glowing shield frames on the imp warlord and have him just fire the ghostly shield out

But I feel like I need some indicator that he's firing this off

Could one mod Doom so much that none of the original source code would be left?

>>1956965
i'm no scientist but i would say it would be game breaking

>>1956524

That's pretty cool. Well I'll try harder to get half the map done and ready for a tryout by mid october at the latest, since now I know there's an interest.
So thanks for the nice messages, guys :3

>>1958163
Eh.

The Diaz pistol was nice a few years ago, but I can only focus on how awkward the hammer looks now. Might as well remove the hammer entirely and make it striker-fired, like a Glock or M&P9 (as in, smooth out the rear of the slide or place a backplate over it).
The muzzleflash looks out of place and weird. And too big for the kind of weapon it is.
I don't like the brightened pistol.

The rocket launcher looks weird, but I'll admit, it looks like you can really feel the impact when you fire it, and the explosion is cool. The blood mist is annoying as fuck though, it's silly and looks like it would just be a resource-hog and obscure your vision.

The Ralston Repeater from Bioshock Infinite just looks terribly out of place with the other weapons, and I'm reminded by how retarded the overheating was with that weapon in Infinite.

Monsters look fine I guess, the best part of the video is the map.

This guy here again. New testing release. What do you think I should change/add?

https://www.dropbox.com/s/nx8fk6nyekxsoru/WIP%20MOD%20V3.pk3?dl=0

Changelog:
Made weapons fire faster
Added custom ammo types for the existing weapons
Made pain states just a_scream instead of pausing the actor
Tweaked blood to make it less like burl tumd
and more of a shotgun spray.
Reduced blood amount and increased fade time
Increased the hitscan amount spawned from the grenade, decreased explosion damage and range
Created custom sprites for pistol and SMG ammo
Removed shotgunguy replacement

I think that's all I've done since last release.
This will probably be the last release until everything is replaced. Don't want to flood the threads.

The UMP being mirrored becomes especially egregious when it actually does eject to the left. Anyone with any spriting skills willing to fix that? Either deleting the ejection port on the existing sprite and drawing a new charging handle on the left side of the gun, or mirror the entire thing and re-hand it. Maybe it's just my autism flaring up again but it bothers me something fierce.

I think it got lost man.

Speaking of lost, Shadow Warrior's expansion, Wanton Destruction got lost too and was considered gone forever but got found.

>http://www.3drealms.com/news/2005/09/wanton_destruction_for_shadow.html

> This add-on was produced by a company called Sunstorm (featuring DNF developer Charlie Wiederhold). The add-on was completed, but then shelved by the distributor. It wasn't our choice, and it wasn't Sunstorm's choice. So the product sat. Eventually Sunstorm went out of business, and the product essentially died. As time went by, we at 3D Realms had thought the product was lost. We never had a copy ourselves of the add-on, and with the company non existent, the chances of releasing it were pretty much zero. We tried to locate it a few times over the years, but pretty much gave up hope, and wrote it off.

>Fast forward to this Monday, and we get an email from Anthony Campiti, the former President of Sunstorm. Anthony tells us that he discovered a CD called "Add-on Archive 1". Much to his surprise (and ours), this CD contained the completed version of the Wanton Destruction add-on. A few emails were exchanged, and a CD arrived at 3D Realms HQ on Thursday afternoon with the materials!

If they're punchy, satisfying, and not just firing a small spurt of damage right in front of you, yes.

Cyberdemon can take the recoil of its own rockets.

What if the skull in the drum shot lost souls as a melee attack/secondary fire?

not s shotgun, a bolltgun

>>1955880
Z doom can do stuff like that, it's just noone has

Is this is a link to a screamer?

but doomguy can just hold down the trigger and fire as many rockets as he wants, so what does that say about his strength?

Nope. It's just a link that 4chan doesn't detect as spam, if I remember correctly.

Given how the barrel is basically nothing, if you chambered a round, it would either stick out at the end of the barrel (if it's rimmed), or plain plop out without doing anything.

It looks cool, but it doesn't actually make any kind of physical or spatial sense.

You should probably directly link Term's github than the outdated alpha.

I was hoping someone would use the later ZDoom functions to make a better ZBlood.
Took us long enough.

Oh shit. This better have Caleb's one-liners.

Oh shit. I'll try this tomorrow. Zblood and its ilk are terrible.

Hey man, at least the guy tried :(

Is there any good source port for android

So Cyberpunk Shoot Out is only currently one level with 2 weapons? I love this idea, and I want more.

>>1958648
Three weapons. But yes, it's still in a very early stage. If you want to help contribute, maps are what is most needed at the moment.

>>1958653
I've yet to do anything doom related, so I fear that I wouldn't be able to put out anything quality at all.

>>1958612
this

>>1958653
If you're the main dev could you use a tripcode or something?

Do you post on the doomworld/zdoom forums too?

Easier identification will make it easier to centralize ideas and production of stuff.

>>1958660
There isn't really a "main dev". A few of us in the IRC are working together, talking stuff over, but there isn't really anyone in charge over anyone else. If you want a list of people involved, I can only give you a partial one, since quite a few people have contributed anonymously, including the original author.

Any DOSBox whizzes itt?

I bought a laptop the other day with specs as in pic related. Yeah I know I could have built a far more beastly PC for the same price but I only want a laptop.

Any idea how this will run DOSBox Blood? I understand that DOSBox only uses one core, so will it still run like shit since it's only 2.5ghz? My currently laptop is a Core2Duo 2.4ghz and I get 50-60 fps at 320x240 native res. I'm hoping to be able to run the game at 640x480 native at 60+ fps. Wishful thinking?

Also this thing apparently has 'Turbo Boost' technology which can take it to 3.5ghz, but I don't know how effective it would actually be.

>>1958553
I don't exactly see the point when you can run the GoG release with the pre-set dosbox and get the actual game.

>>1958646
I thought it was pretty swell when I first played it.
Then I played the real Blood, and it all kinda falls apart in hindsight.

>>1958654
Depends, modding Doom is actually quite easy.
What are your previous experiences?

>>1958710
A bit of texture work for some past PC mods and a few forays into building duke 3D maps about 10 or 15 years ago.

>>1958718
Building maps for Doom is considerably easier, especially if you get familiar with it's limitations (or optionally, the much expanded capabilities of sourceports such as ZDoom)

>>1958720
What would I need to look into? Any handy links or programs I need to know about?

>>1958710
>I don't exactly see the point when you can run the GoG release with the pre-set dosbox and get the actual game.
So you can have Caleb run through /pol/.wad

>>1958757
Isn't there a Samsara addon for that?

>>1958763
I don't think Caleb is available for Samsara, because they stated he'd be too similar to an already existing character.

>>1958764
That's why he said "addon" you double revenant.
The add-on is terrible anyway

>>1958654

Doom is easy as fuck to mod, nothing else to say, every kid in the world able to hold a mouse could create a map and replace sound, textures, sprites and all the other stuff.

>>1958647

you wouldn't want to try playing Doom on a phone or some shitty tablet, you wouldn't!

>>1958786
Grabbing Doom Builder 2 then, I suppose I'll try my hand at something.

>>1958787
lol I remember playing Doom on a Sansa Fuze and it was horrible

>>1955880

Basically DoomRL with the Doom engine and futuristic maps and theme.

>>1958792

You'll see, mapping for vanilla Doom is so easy thanks to DB2, just need to "learn" textures and how to use them, then you can do whatever you want.

>>1958792
Make sure to also grab Slade, invaluable tool for editing .wads
If you're working ZDoom, make sure to bookmark the ZDoom wiki.
Alternatively, you can kick it oldschool and make vanilla compatible maps. Personally, I find that Boom offers more options while maintaining vanilla gameplay, but that's all up to you.

>>1958802
Thanks for the info! I'll likely be using ZDoom as a base, as I use GZDoom to run everything.

>>1958064

>cheat
:^)
Find and replace mode from Doombuilder is better than any cheat for secret switch hunting.

>>1958803

I also use Zdoom/GZdoom to play but I don't really like mapping for those ports, I think it's better to start with vanilla mapping to get the basics of doom limits and possible actions before moving to a "new-school" port

>>1958675
I'd strongly suggest you start a thread on the Zdoom forums, especially if you want mappers since people like to be credited or know who's talking to who about what.

>>1958821
If we make any major progress and have something beyond three enemies, three weapons, and one map, sure. A thread can be on the table.
In the meantime, though, we're still figuring out what the hell to do with the thing in the first place.

A thread saying what the project is and what it'll be about isn't really wise when we're still trying to figure out what it is and what it'll be about.

>>1958834
>If we make any major progress and have something beyond three enemies, three weapons, and one map

That already is more than many other projects I've seen. Some of the most famous mods are just guns, let alone new enemies and a map.

Anyway, talk it over in the IRC. If I had more mapping talent I'd help you out (as I love cyberpunk) but at the mo I'm cutting my teeth on a map of my own. Most I can offer you is that Zsec variant I'm afraid.....

By the way, the music you use, I listened to the whole album that's from the other day, it's the bee's knees.

Haven't Doomed out for a number of years but there were some Raven levels that came out with the 360/etc. version of Doom? Are they actually well made or forgettable?

>>1958873
No Rest For The Living? It's really good.

>>1958647
Doom Touch

NESfag, you around?

I've been playing DukeHard, shit's really well done, which level did you make?

I've played the first few maps just tonight.

>>1958876
>It's really good.
Well, it's not bad, by any means, the maps all look good and play good (at least to a degree), but a few things bother me:

1), all 9 levels use the same music and sky as the corresponding 9 levels of Doom 2, you really think they could have nabbed a sky, any sky, from Doom 1, TNT or Plutonia, all of which they had the rights to and was in the same bundle and same software, and then grabbed some tracks from one of these, like use a mix of D1 tracks and maybe one track from later in D2, and one track from TNT.
The levelset is nice, but the fact that it uses the same damn sky and tracks makes it feel like it lacks that final bit of polish that you'd feel wanting for a nice levelset.

2) It was too rough for my dainty casual ass. It was maybe a year ago, so I can't remember if I played on HMP or UV, but the later levels really don't care about cutting you any slack, ammo is manageable, but they hold tight on health, often I would find myself with less than 30-40% HP, and I'd find a stash of stuff, which may have been a stimpack and a green armor, like "Yeah that's all you're getting motherfucker, though titties!"

3) Too much red marble-bricks, it was never one of my favorite textures (I prefer my marble to be green, thank you very much), but I can stand it when coupled with a fitting red sky, such as in E3. No Rest For The Living has a sky that's the color of Bubba's rusted out, "sporterized" 6.5 Carcano, and thus an ill fit.

It's -not- a bad levelset, but it's not entirely my cup of tea. If I was in charge of releasing it, I would nab the sky from D1E1, some tracks from E1, E2, E3 and TNT, and maybe sprinkle a couple more stimpacks on the episode, at least on HMP.
But I don't know, maybe I'm just a punk-ass bitch faggot, it's just how I felt, I played it on the PS3, so I'm not as good as with a mouse.

>>1958182
>FAS cyberdemon
no, thanks

>>1958915
Love it, just bought a copy.

>>1956714
Speed of Doom is my personal favourite megawad.

>>1958914
I made the first level (Lobby), the last level (Rooftop) and the secret level (Parking).

I tend to like my work a lot, because I'm the kind of guy who makes the kind of maps he likes to play, but every map in the episode is good in its own way imo.

>>1956623
>>1956634
Why are you poofters discussing John Carmack's sexual prowess in bed? You dweebs get more pathetic every day I swear to god.

>>1959024
BANE?

>>1959024
I'm through a good chunk of them now. Some I like, some I don't.

I liked the first level the most actually, has a good flow, you don't get lost and has decent amounts of ammo.

As for the last level, how do you finish it?
I'm dumping ammo at the moving alien spaceship thing and it's not doing anything.

>>1958681
I get 40fps on a pentium 4. you can easily get 60 fps on 800x600

>>1959057
You have to find and press 3 switches throughout the map, which will allow you to power up the teleporter again so you can call the boss (in the middle of the upper part). There are hints to this, the 3 switches are numbered plus if you look at the pipework it links the console that controls the teleporter directly to all 3 generators which have switches.

You can't destroy the ship, it's like the alien spaceship at the start of the first map of the 2nd episode of the original game; except that this time you have to avoid its shots.

Thanks for the comments

>>1959113
Is that with DOSBox? What is your Ghz?

>>1959135
Ah I get it now, yeah I didn't think it was the ship as it's moving map sectors.

Thanks again.
By the way, how is the Duke Nukem forever (2013) mod?

>>1959208
It's pretty good overall but doesn't really deserve all the hype it got. It also has a 3 levels 'DLC' made by a couple of other mappers which I find hit&miss depending on the level.

>>1959217
So what are some of the really kickass duke mapsets?

On a side note, Dukes comments really help liven up the game, you certainly notice their absence. Even when he's just commenting on random shit he see's in the world.

>>1959192
Yes.
3GHZ but ghz don't mean the cpu speed

>mfw every single people whop told me not to play brutal doom because it was crap just told me they didn't play it. Another point for the anti new school community, I don't like so much NS mods but I don't say something is crap because I look cool to the eyes of the eyes of other players when I say it

>>1959242
Well, DNF mod is good, do give it a try.

I highly recommend WGRealms (1) :
http://dukerepository.com/maps/WGRealms
It has textures and 'new' guns but it's still Duke3D, unlike WGrealms2

Also I really like Daikarin, I think it's very underrated :
http://www.moddb.com/mods/daikarin/downloads/daikarin

Also there is Metropolitan Mayhem mimicking the original game that I contributed about 3 maps to, it has 15 maps (including 4 boss maps and a secret map)
www.moddb.com/mods/metropolitan-mayhem

But the DN3D community has always more been about single maps if you ask me

>>1959270
What can I say? People are fucking idiots. Especially no fun allowed purists.

>>1959257
Dude I really hope you're not getting my hopes up for no reason. If I really could run the game at 800x600 I'm gonna be so happy.

>>1959286
*at 60fps minimum, of course

You know one feature I would *LOVE* to see?

Bloom applying to textures, because as it is when you use it it's to everything everywhere so it's a gimmick instead of a viable option to try using....but if mappers could use it just a tiny amount in the right places, it would become a really kickass feature.

>>1959293

Hopefully in the future the bloom hack gets expanded that you can apply it to specific sprites or textures.
