Got something news-worthy? Reply to this post, or it'll certainly be missed.

Has anyone ever thought of doing a stealth mod for doom?
I know the new brootal doom is gonna have a thing where enemies can lose track of you and wander around, giving you the chance to sneak in and break their necks, but it's obviously not the focus of the mod.
I'm asking this, because of all of the diferent gameplay styles people have incorporated into doom, I've never seen someone attempt a full on stealth mod.
It seems like something that would be possible too since stealth kills, carrying corpses, hiding spots, and enemy "patrol" routes can all be done in Zdoom.
Besides, even Wolf 3D was originally going to have a few stealth elements.

I've got a project idea to occupy myself with.

Recreating Tomb Raider 2's Venice level in GZ Doombuilder. To learn some basics of GZ's features.

Luckily, textures for that level have already been ripped. But it's just one continuous tga. Should I just cut it into 128x128 pieces? That's the resolution of each texture anyway.

>posting this in this thread and the 5N@F thread

Well.. its relevant to both generals at least

Why didn't the aliums turn Douk into a pig like with the cops?

>>2014495

Douk can swat away the pig-ray with his dick

>>2014495

Douk has the +DONTMORPH flag

Would really like some advice on >>2014379 .

>>2014495
Most likely the process isn't immediate like their Shrink weapons so they probably abducted lots of cops to turn them into Pigs rather than shoot them with a pig gun.

>>2014495
Because he was still in the ship he stole from the Rigelatins in Duke Nukem 2 when the aliums attacked Earth. He got shot down on re-entry and that's where the game starts.

>>2014505
Unless it's better off not mentioned at all, Douk Forever has random EDF troops turn instantly into pigcops after being zapped by some ray when Douk is nearby.

>>2014508
If DNF counts then it's because Duke has too much EGO to turn into a pig.

Is this better than a laser? This is gonna be the "wimpy" swat when under half stamina

>>2014554
Yeah that makes more sense for a shield rather than a laser shield.

I mean if you wanted to laser shield it should at least look different than a wooden shield.

>>2014554
What type of coding do these kinds of mods require?

>>2014586

DECORATE. Which is retardo easy.

Like I'm a complete dunkass and I've managed to create GMOTA, granted with a lot of help, but my point stands

DECORATE is pretty easy. Pick up SLADE, pick up a few mods and just look at them in SLADE, fuck around with settings and learn

>>2014593
Good, I'm also a dunkass. I wanna start learning some mainstream shit too but I dont have the patience to sit down and learn Python.

>>2014593
How easy is DECORATE compared to an actual programming language that could be considered entry-level?

>>2014614

Easy. Very easy.

>>2014614

I've never tried my hand at programming, but I've been able to deduce how to make reloading weapons with projectiles that do funky things like shrapnel on impact and bounce around just from seeing other people's codes. And I'm a lazy bastard. And I'm dumb as a brick.

>>2014614
Easier than BASIC.

So a while ago I got this silly idea to make a boss battle arena thing with very SILLY bosses. Like very stupid that gets randomized via entry.

I managed to start on three bosses (big ol god of agitation, sanic the vilehog, player 9 (SENDING ACK)) and make a basic map for it, but then I kinda lost all motivation towards it and I decided to drop it.
So I figured if anyone wants it for whatever reason I'd drop this thing here.

>>2014640

You ever make something, only to have it do something you didn't plan for?

And then completely love the result of it? Because this just happened.

>>2014664
That's nice.
I like that shield.

>>2014664
It's not a bug, it's a feature!
Please tell me you're keeping this.

>>2014670

Goddamn rights I am.

I wouldn't call it a bug, just an unintended extra, I forgot that a_blast blasts projectiles too.

This isn't too bad so far, but I think the scale is sort of fucked? TR2's level architecture was basically made up of 90% squares, so i went with 64x64 here. It does make everything look rather giant. Should I try it with 32x32? Or does Gzdoom have something to make actors, sprites scale up and set the first person perspective a bit higher?

>>2014692
You can scale up sprites and also have the player view-point higher or lower. Just check the wiki. You'll have to make a new player class, though, but that's not hard at all.

>>2014448
I'm confused. If I have the megaton edition from steam - why the hell would I use e Duke? This guide even says it sucks.

>>2014696
Megaton cannot run some mods correctly. I used default Megaton to play through the main game and the expansions, but EDuke for mods.

>>2014701
Oh thanks man.

PS. Are Duke Nukem 1 and 2 worth playing? I know they're not first person but I've got a side scrolling shooter itch.

>>2014693
I fucking LOVE learning new things.

>>2014712
Duke 2 is fantastic. Duke 1 isn't quite so great, but it's still a serviceable game.

>>2014465
ouch!

How can I get a "falling start" for a level? I mean, that the player begins the level falling down. Simply setting the starting position of the player higher doesn't do anything.

If you could be eaten by any Doom monster, which one would you pick and why?

>>2014461
You guys realize Thamuz is invincible when he uses his flame explosion attack right? You're pretty much wasting ammo.

I wonder how many people don't know this.

>>2014737
What you can do is make the player start on a pedestal and via ACS, make it instantly lower to the floor as soon as the level begins.

>>2014758
And also make the pedestal invisible. I checked the hell level from Pirate Doom, that technique is used there as well. Will do!

The Plutonia Experiment has various unofficial sequels like Plutonia 2 and Plutonia Revisited Community Project, and lately Plutonia 1024, but are there any unofficial sequels to TNT: Evilution?

Because I'm one of those weirdos who likes TNT more than Plutonia. Plutonia has some excellent levels, but I still love techbases more than jungle.

>>2014892

I really suck at plutonia i can get past the well of souls.

i finished TNT years ago,that was a more well rounded doom experience.

hey /doom/ how do you launch several pk3 files and wads at the same time from the zdoom shortcut?

Unloved for Doom was literally one of the best wads I've played in terms of creepiness and ambiance. I also like how there is a subtle story that one could piece together, if one chooses to.

If the situation calls for it, you can do -file "blaj blah with spaces.pk3" or, heck, -file "folder" (in DoomRPG's case), both work.

>>2015060

Unloved was terrible and boring and its pretty graphics did nothing to make up for it.

>>2015153
How was it terrible and boring?

There was enough interesting encounters and the detailing was very nice.

It just dropped the ball when it became a slaughterfest at the end and also using Thamuz.

>>2015168
>There was enough interesting encounters

There wasn't, that's the thing. Everything was pretty bog-standard encounters with Realm667 enemies.
What few possibly-good battles there were I found hampered immensely due to very shoddy architecture. That series of schoolrooms where you fight the cultists had no room to dodge. That clown-tunnel with all the cacos had you getting caught on the architecture constantly.

When detailing starts getting in the way of gameplay, quality sinks immensely.
It's still pretty, sure, but it plays like the pits.

Does anyone know which version of gzdoom works with the latest version of DoomRL Arsenal?

>>2015187
When I launch the latest dev build it goes to a black screen with sound and the mouse cursor still functional, with or without any mods

Someone can help me. I used to have a front tend for doom, hexen, heretic and such games, it was easy to use. Double click and you see a menu with all the wads, an option for the vanilla graphics and another for enhaced ones.

What´s its name?

>>2015176
There was room to dodge in the classrooms and there's really nothing to even latch onto in the clown hallway.

It was pretty barren in the clown hallway if I'm thinking of the same one you are.

The only problem I had was the Archvile hallway with the red key and the slaughterfest at the end, which did have things to accidently snag onto while trying to dodge.

Some people have asked for the ability to wield Kharon by itself.
A lot of other people have also asked for the ability to do more than just ATATATATATATATATATATATATATA with the sword.

So I'm making the Kharon wieldable by itself without any guns in the alt-fire. Instead what the alt-fire will be is sheathing the sword and charging up a special attack for a much more powerful strike.
...theoretically, of course.

The big thing is finding/making sprites to sheathe the blade with.
So I'm picking up the katana sheathe from Action Doom 2 and am doing an extremely poor job of editing it.

hi, mate

>>2015304
Thank you very much anon.

>>2015304
Would it be possible to have the sword and sheathe mode to allow the timed hit combos?

It would be pretty nice.
Also the charge up strike should be much better than the mace/hammer considering that it's probably not going to be spammable like a fully loaded hammer would be

>>2015221

>>2015304

I think it looks fine. Keep going, the power attacks sound pretty rad

>>2014380
what is the pig at the top supposed to be?

also aren't there two redneck guys?

>>2015327
>to allow the timed hit combos?

Like Zen Dynamics? I can try something like that. It might be something to do if you just tap alt-fire instead of charging it up.
I figure if you're choosing the sword by itself then you want to go full dedicated melee and have as many different options as possible.

>>2015350

>>2015356

I really like the sound of that.

I do think it's important to give it something that the Mace/Hammer wouldn't trivialize too, since it makes for a really amazing melee setup thanks to the Lightning fields.

>>2015361
Remember, whack him with the crowbar.

It's possible to kill him and make the level unwinnable.

This doesn't even factor in level design which is worlds apart.

question for mapfags
is it possible to have nonlinear progression in (g)zdoom? I am on about player progressing the episode not in a straight line (E1M1-E1M2-E1M3 etc), but being able to go from one map into multiple maps, branching out levels etc
E1M1 ->
E1M2a - E1M2b ->
E1M3a - E1M3b - E1M3c ->
E1M4a - E1M4b etc
using doombuilder 2 and mapping with gzdoom in mind

>>2015439
With ZDoom's hubs, I guess it kind of is possible.

>>2015363

The way I figure, the Omen's niche is very firmly in risk/reward. It has the power of the Testament, the AoE of the Exodus, and the stunning of the Sabbath, but it doesn't have the range or rate of fire and it takes a while to really get up. If you invest in it then it'll pay off quite a bit, but if you neglect it then it'll be worthless.

The Kharon, on the other hand, is a lot simpler--its niche is pretty firmly in single-target damage, with the exception of the special moves. So while the damage numbers might reach exceptionally high (especially on a full charge, which is going to +RIPPER through for even more fun), for massive crowds you'll want to go back to Omen or the guns.

>>2015448
I actually think the Omen has a very high amount of reward for not that much risk.
Many times I can trivialize entire encounters with the lightning fields, then get all the free souls with finishing off enemies with the Kharon.

Also it trivializes the Cyberdemon and Mastermind replacement if you get one hit in on them, because you can put a second one out for permanent stun.
Also if you can dash into an archvile one bonk will kill anything it spawns and it basically gets locked into dying real fast.

The reason I feel the risk is low is thanks to the dash dodge and lightning fields.
I only switch to the grenade launcher for Archviles I can't reach and I switch to the Sabbath for those wraith guys with the annoying ghost spawning.

Also you can rapid bonk enemies with the Omen, I think it has a very high rate of fire.

Of course this weapon doesn't really shine unless you keep it out to begin with, but there's not much reason to not hold it when you got it thanks to how fast you can swap between weapons.

I am more worried that the sheathe setup wouldn't get much use because of how powerful the Omen is. I think it's the undisputed strongest weapon since the Grenade Launcher nerf

>>2015460
Also, I actually thought the Omen was undeniably ridiculous since I first got to use it.
Those lightning fields man.
They're just nuts.

It feels necessary for the Lightning fields to be good but it's really abusable.
I also kind of miss the grenade launcher being able to deflect projectiles.
That felt really handy.

I think we've found our Revenant-tan.

>>2014379
Don't texture the level with TR textures. Texture it with Doom textures.

>>2015469
>>2015460
Also one last thing about the Omen is that I think any real risk to it went away when enemies start having delays to their first attack.

Gives a really clear indicator of when you can dash in on them.

The only time it doesn't do well is when you need to keep killing for extended periods.
I have taken it all the way singlehandedly in Sunder's Furnace level and it works great on monster teleporter spots.

It's a really god tier weapon.

I have no idea what I've been doing for the past few weeks, but anyway. I decided to vist a few Icon of Sin variants after rolling one on the Doomworld random link. Before you ask, no, the results I got weren't good.

>since the Grenade Launcher nerf
>I also kind of miss the grenade launcher being able to deflect projectiles.

Shit, I forgot entirely about that. I'll restore that, thanks for letting me know.
Also, if the Omen's especially abusable, there's a few things I can do to take care of that:

1: Shorten the length of time for the lightning fields.
2: Slow down the charge-up time while selected/speed up the charge-down time when unselected.
3: 100-charge attack takes away 30/40/50 charge instead of 20.
4: Less explosive radius on the lightning fields, to make it easier for enemies to slip in between the explosions.

Any of these sound good?

>>2015546
Nice try, faggot

>hdoom baroness
oh my god there had better be a cg of the bruiser sisters

>>2014470

>>2015550
1 doesn't really work so well because you can burst down enemies pretty quickly during the phase. It would prevent one bonk from being fatal but you still get the 3-5 others.

2 doesn't work very well on it's own because of the previously mentioned instant weapon swap time.
When I have the Omen I see no reason to not have it out unless I'm in the middle of shooting.
Hae Lin kind of controls the pace of every fight thanks to her dashes and sword.

3 only sort of addresses the problem unless you go with the full extreme 40/50.

4 also doesn't really nerf it in a meaningful way in it's current state because the dash in lets you pick your target so you can just go right to the middle.
I do this with Spin slashes too, it's really fun to dash in like that.

The real problem is you have a very fast swing speed and each lightning field takes 10 energy so you'd need a few things to tone it down.

What I think would work is
>Swing fast like it is right now but takes longer between swings after a hit.
>Lightning fields cost 15/20 instead of 10
>Cyberdemons/Mastermind replacement don't flinch so much to Lightning if at all
>Slower charge time but leave the decay at the same rate
Things like that.

Also what's the name of the guy that replaces the Mastermind? I am tired of calling him the Mastermind replacement.
And the shotgun needs a slight buff since I never use it unless there's no better guns.

>>2015439
It was done in Hexen, and possibly in BTSX.

I bet it's also possible to script it such that if you do something different, you go to a different level--i.e., if you kill 100% monsters in one level, you get sent to a different level at the end than you would with a 90% killrate.

>>2015568

yeah, it was right there, literally copypasted script form the wiki

>>2015595
...Do you have the ACS compiler?
Did you remember to make the script activate after a line is triggered or walked over, or did you set it up to run when the room starts?

>>2015602
>Did you remember to make the script activate after a line is triggered or walked over,
thats where I fucked up, brb checking it

>>2015575
>and possibly in BTSX.
Nope, BTSX is 100% vanilla compatible, and as such, it just has maps that are the same map with minor changes

Hubs allow things to be persistent, if there are 3 Imps in the hub level and you kill 2 and leave 1, when you return, that 1 will still be alive and the other two will still be dead.

In BTSX, the "hub" levels have no enemies (probably to prevent this kind of shit from happening) but regardless, if there were enemies, they would just respawn from the beginning all the time

>>2015590
Did you compile the ACS? Post your wad.

>>2015574

He's called the Emperor.
Down the line as more enemy behaviors get tweaked/replaced, hopefully there won't be much trouble keeping track of what's what.

And all right, I'll try those out, thank you.

>>2015608
I have fucked up in a completely different way
because of my adhd or plain stupidity, my map was doom in doom format, not doom in hexen format, because of that I cant even use acs, gotta port my map over to that other format

>>2015613
Thanks, I have been calling him the Mastermind replacement for a little too long.
I think Emperor is an amazing enemy replacement, with one little nitpick.
He does that bullet rain attack a tad too often when Hae Lin is out of range, makes him a bit of a target.
But other than that it's 10/10.
Doesn't even need to be tweaked it's just something I noticed.

Also I am surprised nobody really notices that the Omen is such an amazing weapon.

Even on the ZDoom forums they were talking about how they ran out of ammo and I just can't see how that's really possible.
Kharon is so perfectly balanced, holy shit

Smooth Doom weapons and Voxel items

Bought pic related recently. I am loving the balancing they did for the psx version having more powerful doom2 monsters like chaingunners instead of just stacking weak ones. The creepy lighting and music makes a good atmosphere. Playing it with a controller is not bad at all either handles as well as keyboard only did back in the day. Move over doom 64 this is the best console version of doom by far.

Huh! That's an interesting tidbit. I assumed he was just cruising in his private jet or something.

help me out guys
I am using Ultimate Doom and Doom2 Iwad, they work fine in editor, and when I make a testrun in editor textures display correctly, however when I run it through GZdoom on its own, it will drop textures from Iwad that is not loaded

it can be countered by selecting both my wad, ultimate doom iwad, dropping them onto gzdoom exe and then selecting doom2 iwad from the list as the one you want to play

question is if this is acceptable, or should I rip textures from UD iwad into my own wad?
if I have to rip them, whats the least painful way of doing it?

>>2015810

I have a question to any doom editors.
I've been messing around with Doom Builder and i'm having trouble doing something that seems really simple. I just want to take the BIGDOOR2 texture from the WAD and edit it, in MSPAINT, to write something on the door in blood. How do I do this because it's driving me nuts and my frustration is starting to discourage me.

Just post the damn level, and don't create entire sections of levels without doing the enemies, encounters are a huge part of how levels work

>>2016082
I design shit on paper first, with encounter in mind, then I build the level the same way I build levels in UE4 or Source, meaning I first do geometry, then logic, then graphics, then combat

anyway, here is the level, gotta tweak two encounters there really, and make yellow key room a bit more anal rupturing, but without it being too obvious

no limit removing option

Almost done with beating The Ultimate Doom for the very first time, and it's the first in the series that I've ever played. I've played a good chunk of the game in Vanilla and it's alright, but switched to ZDoom, which really feels like an improvement to me (didn't play with jumping and crouching on since this is my first playthrough).

What should I get next after I finish this and then Doom 2? I might run through the Chex Quests first even before Doom 2, since I vividly remember seeing it on a Chex box back when I was a kid, and being ultra-butthurt that I didn't have a computer to play it on.

>>2016389
>and it's the first in the series that I've ever played.

And by this, I mean ANY game built off of the Doom, like Hexen, Strife, etc.

>>2016389
Get Final Doom. Then after that play the millions of fan mods and wads

>>2016389
TNT and Plutonia are the usual things to do after finishing the main doom games, but as >>2016395
said, doing other doom engine based games are good, too. I'm a fan of Hexen, despite its sometimes bad design in the form of hunting for switches and finding things to further the game.

>>2016389
Plutonia and TNT if you want more Doom, Heretic if you want Doom with a fantasy flavor, Hexen if you want Doom that's closer to a traditional fantasy game. Strife is also pretty good but rather different. Don't forget the voices.wad for it, or you'll hear no dialogue. The Build Engine games are also good alternative.

>>2016387
Did you just shrink a caco by flipping the bird?

Get Final Doom and play Plutonia if you think most of Doom and Doom II were too easy. Evilution will likely bore you and put you off playing the game further.

If you didn't choose the Plutonia option above I suggest playing something like TVR!.

>>2016354
Gonna say UDMF just because it pisses of one guy with really awful internet connection (and because it's a good format).

I'm actually rather fond of the Boom format though.

Whew.
Some editing by Mike12 and some shading wonkery by me later, and a sheathe is in good order! It's still not 100% Doom style, but it looks much better than before.

Now to actually code the attack.

>>2016503
I think it looks nice.

>>2015068
Equinox is too dark fof me in prboom, i cant finish map3

So is there any effective ways to create a visual shockwave effect in doom? I need some visual feedback for the POW'd up shield swipe that blasts shit away

>>2016568
you mean like radius quake?

otherwise just get a transparent sprite and have it enlarge or get a bunch of transparent sprites and have them move outwards in a shockwave pattern

>>2016585

I was just looking for an affective method to add a visual effect to it, I was suggested to look at the shockwave effect the spinkick uses in Terrorists, and I think that'd be great.

>>2016319

I've still been lurking, but glad to be back posting videos and all that I guess.

do you want to be able to use the original bigdoor2 and also your edited one in the same wad?

if not, extract DOOR2_4 from the iwad, draw on it, then put it in a pwad

example: http://temp-host.com/download.php?file=vl47wa

Anyone played lasting light?
Why the fuck there's no monsters?
I already completed 5 levels and no monsters whatsoever.

>>2016790
>Singleplayer

I think we should skip the middle man and just put SVN.

>>2016801
although do note this method will replace every occurrence of bigdoor2 in the game.

(incidentally, bigdoor2 appears to be used in only these four pictured doors in the entire doom2 iwad)

>>2016801
I wanted to extract the bigdoor2 so i could write on it and then save it as a new file to insert in a door. I figured out how to insert a file but I can't figure out how to EXTRACT a file.

>>2016721
>>2016749
I always saw DRLA's modpacks as being more cube-shaped, myself.

>>2016843
Open Doom2.wad in SLADE, find BIGDOOR2, right-click, export as .png, edit to your heart's content, import into a new WAD or PK3 (never EVER make changes to an IWAD), and convert it back to Doom's graphic format.

>>2016721
>>2016749

If you're going to have them rotate, like some voxelpacks do, then go with the sleeker one; however, if you're going to have it static then go with the bulkier one.

I agree with >>2016863 in that I always saw the modpacks as being cubes myself. They both look good though. Just depends on what they'll be doing; i.e. spinning or standing still.

>>2016876
i didn't really plan anything as i barely have an idea on how to put them in the game, but yeah i didn't really see them spinning

oh, and tell me what you think about this rare one

>>2016721
>>2016749
>>2016896
But weren't modpacks were kinda black boxes with tech and replacement parts inside? Or...

>>2016904
I always imagined there was 2-3 slots on each gun that the mod packs would sorta snap into and become a part of the gun.

>>2016896
As far as looking like the sniper mod pack, yeah, it looks fukn spot on m8. Curious what the back would look like, or if you'd have it mirrored on both sides; still looks great.

>>2016912
i actually cleaned the back, might looks a bit boring and leave you in doubt when you're not facing the right way, but having two front sides made it look really silly to me

>>2016924
Put some lights, maybe a button or some extra silver plugs on the back.

>>2016924
Yeah, if you could make one of those bands match the color, or give them something on the back of them so it's be more identifiable.

>>2016932
Something kind of like this. Sorry for the shitty texture, threw it together just to demonstrate my idea.

>>2017112
It's all right. They seem a little small, and they also seem a little out of place. Maybe a placard with a picture that's close to what it is? Like a sniper mod having a target on its back, or maybe making sort of a "plug" that could still be colored but wouldn't be too obtuse.

It's a good start, but it seems to need just a little more indentification. You'd want someone to be able to glance at the back and be able to tell what it is. I can definitely tell on this page, but what about when you have to set it against other backgrounds or other mod-packs?

You should try put some more shading in the sides. Even if you have no idea what to do, it has great chances of looking better, trust me.

um, the effect you used on your armor bonus to make the eyes "glow", i guess

on a related note, how's this for the back? i can't tell if it's clever or terrible

>>2017194
When I make textures like that, I try to think about how every bit would have a practical use in an actual military/tech environment. That's why I suggested some plugs and lights. The "S" just seems kind of out of place to me. Whatever floats your boat I guess.

>>2017194
>spoiler
disregard that, i found how (ctrl+r or uncheck "A" in the shade menu)
whew, glad it doesn't change much

>>2017195
>I try to think about how every bit would have a practical use in an actual military/tech environment
I think it is unwise to care excessively about realism.

>>2017194
>armor bonus
in sprites, it's a sequence of images. I just made a different lit voxel for each image and renamed them to match the original names

I like a lot the idea, it would be better way to identify them, it takes you a while to remember which color is which mod


>>2017183
nah, I won't risk derailing

>>2017203
>I think it is unwise to care excessively about realism.
this

different anon here, I would recommend having your powerups easily recognizable like in Contra, maybe have a letter on powerup decide which weapon its for, and then color of the letter shows what type of powerup it is, for example red S would be damage powerup for shotgun, yellow R would be rate of fire upgrade for rocket launcher etc

>>2017206
is it even possible to derail /vr/oom?

I think that's a great addition to the back, and it does instantly indicate what kind of modpack it is.

I with >>2017208 in that the addition of a colored letter is a fantastic way to do it. The only thing I'd say to improve it would be to touch up the S a little more and maybe add the little details that >>2016932 and >>2016945 suggested; however, you probably already considered that.

Great work though.

>>2017203
I don't mean that you need to make it realistic. I just set a guideline like this: In a military base, would they have boxes with a big glowing "S" on it?
If I say no, I try to think of something a little more realistic. I just use that to keep myself from going with designs that are a little too out of place.

>>2017218
gameplay over realism

>>2017218

I understand wanting to compliment the aesthetic of the visual design, anon, but consider the following:

There are piles upon piles of medieval helmets littering the UAC techbases.

>>2017206
ah, thanks.

>>2017208
just to make it clear, i'm just creating models for an existing mod, and this is what appears on the back of a pickup
so yes, each modpack has its characteristic color (and is often identified by its initial) so bim! the modpack's initial written in it's characteristic color

>>2017212
for the S itself i just copied the "system" font, for the lights i don't think they'd have much to do on the back and for the plugs i'd assume they're protected somewhere

>>2017218
>In a military base, would they have boxes with a big glowing "S" on it?

i can tell you from personal experience that this exact approach leads to madness and failure.

i once made a map for a high profile doomworld community project which had basically no ammo that wasn't gained from zombie death drops because "no super secret military base would have cases of ammo just lying around".

it was quite rightly called the most annoying map ever made.

>>2017228
can't you respect the UAC's aesthetic decisions????????????

/gawd/

Jesus why

(to be fair, the final version was edited to not be quite so ridiculous)

alright guys, need feedback on the map

https://www.dropbox.com/s/kp42b0l6hx7lw71/CORE.wad?dl=0

its meant to be played with GZdoom, its possible to 100% it, and difficulties dont have many differences between them
to complete the map you may have to kill around half of the enemies, the other half shows up when you grab keycards to alternative exit to a different level.

issues that I need to fix/change:
>mark doors that use keycards
>fix baron room so its less boring and maybe harder
>make red key room a bit more interesting

this wad was tested with beautiful doom and with smooth doom, both work fine, as in, there are no graphical problems

so yeah, feedback is appreciated

Uhh, guys?

>>2017274
Here are some issues:
>I think the biggest problem was that I could leave the level without grabbing any keys.
>With jumping, I could get into the outdoor area.
>Putting down a Baron and Arachnotron when all you give the player is a shotgun with small amounts of ammo is a bad design choice overall.
>Tons of Door Track textures were missing.
>Not enough shotgun ammo provided.

Those are just a few of the things I noticed

>>2017283
rofl

who had "8 days" in the "how long before it gets hacked again" sweepstakes??

>>2017297
>With jumping, I could get into the outdoor area.

So don't jump?
inb4 people need to always accomodate for jumping!!!!!!

>>2017283
Don't think it's been hacked. It's only the main page that's screwed up for me.
I think someone just fucked up when they were trying to put up some news.

>>2017303
I don't normally jump, but I always make sure my maps are "jump proof". It's just a good idea to make all windows impassable unless you want the player to go through them.

>>2017307
this, especially when you make a mod for a source port with jump enabled by default

>>2017304
yes i agree. someone seems to have copied a png file into the article text.

if you save source and extract it you get this image, it's a thumbnail of some map (anyone know what map it is?)

edit: i can't post the image, 4chan says "Detected possible malicious code in image file." that means i'm probably banned :/

>>2017274
Give your outdoor area some believable edge. Also: color code your doors and switches according to the key.

>>2017307
>It's just a good idea

Maybe for you.
I never make my maps jump proof, because if they play it the way it's intended to be played it doesn't matter.
And if a player intentionally wants to break a map by jumping/crouching through it for sequence breaking, it's a giant pain in the ass to thud through invisible walls everywhere.

If they want to sequence break, let them sequence break. If they want to play how it should be played, let them.

>>2017297
you could not jump through windows in original version, but since I have ported it from doom to hexen format, linedef probably got lost, will block it.

>I think the biggest problem was that I could leave the level without grabbing any keys.
yeah just checked, I forgot to lock one of the doors, now you must grab the key

>Putting down a Baron and Arachnotron when all you give the player is a shotgun with small amounts of ammo is a bad design choice overall.
Baron room is optional, you go there only if you want to get to secret level, thats why yellow key is there, to throw a switch near beginning
also you can kill everything in the level and still have around 10 shells left on UV difficulty

>Tons of Door Track textures were missing.
not only track textures, yeah gotta fix that

>Not enough shotgun ammo provided.
as I said, you get enough, if you dont go for secret area you will have few spare shells, if you go for secrets, you will get more ammo from marines that appear in final room. you can shoot them across slime room btw.

>>2017315
I am leaving outside area for when I am done with rest of the map, I hate doing these in doom
other than that, what does it play like?

>>2017304
yes i agree. someone seems to have copied a png file into the article text.

if you save source and extract it you get this image, it's a thumbnail of some map (anyone know what map it is?)

>edit: i can't post the image, 4chan says "Detected possible malicious code in image file." that means i'm probably banned :/
never mind, turned out i hadn't cut all the html off the end of the file. forgot to subtract start from end to get length.

>>2017324
Guess it's from Demon Eclipse Episode 1.

>>2017274
Why did you put a no key exit when you have one behind the blue key door?

A bit more shotgun ammo would be nice.

You can sequence-break with jumping.

Last Pinky you encounter in the toxic slime room gets stuck behind the slime column because it's too close to the wall.

After my previous dilemma, I am questioning if I should push this switch.
What do?

>>2017329
>Why did you put a no key exit when you have one behind the blue key door?
this wad will have non-linear progression, this means that door that is harder to get to, will have better rewards, no-key exit leads you to level 2, while exit behind blue door takes you to level 3.

>A bit more shotgun ammo would be nice.
yeah I can do some shotgun ammo, expected you people to manage it better tho

>You can sequence-break with jumping.
I dont understand what you mean, english is not my first language btw.

>Last Pinky you encounter in the toxic slime room gets stuck behind the slime column because it's too close to the wall.
well fuck, he worked fine for me, I already had to fix most stairs so these dumb assholes could walk over them, guess I will change his position a bit

>>2017336

>>2017337
>yeah I can do some shotgun ammo, expected you people to manage it better tho

When I say a bit I really mean just a little bit.

>I dont understand what you mean
You can skip parts of the map by jumping (getting the blue key)

>guess I will change his position a bit

Pinky is fine, it's the slime column you need to move.

>>2017336
I'm gonna push it.
Wish me luck.

>>2017345
press it

>>2017345
Jesus, it was just exploding walls, everything is ok.

seriously how many times do you see a switch you're *not* meant to press as soon as you see it?

>>2017348
i must say that doomguy sprite is kind of adorable

>>2017349
The under-age is strong with this one.

>>2017341
>When I say a bit I really mean just a little bit.
added 12 shells between first area and slime pit

>You can skip parts of the map by jumping (getting the blue key)
fixed jumping exploit, now you cant get up on things near blue key

checked pinky, they are taking too long to walk around slime column, so yeah, it gotta go somewhere else

thanks anon

>>2017349
off the top of my head i can think of

- equinox map04, there's 5 switches in a row, two of them lock you out of a megasphere
- the room of switches in scream.wad where you're only meant to press 2 of about 17, the others are actively harmful

but in general it's very rare

FUCK NOT AGAIN.
FUCKING FUCKITY GOD FUCKING FUCK. I'M DONE WITH THESE BUTTONS.

>>2017349
Well...

>DoomOne with DoomRPG and RLArsenal
Fuck this is amazing

>>2017185
Wut?
I mean, i downloaded it and in the wad description it says that the monsters stalks you thorugh the levels but i reached level 5 and no monsters so far.

>>2016871
When I export it I can't save it as an editable format. It's a .lmp, and I can't make it a .png.

>>2017458
the option is "export as png" not "export"

>>2017467
And it's in the right click menu?

yes

Ty and ty for putting up with my stupidity

zDoom question.
Does infinite ammo give me infinite ammo or give me the possibility to carry infinite ammo.
I'd check now but I'm not at my computer, I'm on break at work and I'm curious & and forgot to check last time I played.

>>2017564
The former.
Even if you have 1 bullet left, it's forever and doesn't decrease.

>>2017564
sv_infiniteammo 1 = your guns will not run out of juice

if you want to have more fun, use sv_fastweapons 1 for much faster shooting guns, and sv_fastweapons 2 for EVEN FASTER shooting guns
