Re: Altern DOOM cover

Option A has 31%, Option B has 69%.

Hello. I am looking for a source porte for Doom on Android. I have got alll of the IWAD. Thanks ;)

third for cacodemon

>>3044225
Good

>>3044228
the only one i know about is Doom Touch and you have to pay for it unfortunately

I think this is my favourite part about the Mancubus demon rune. It's too fat to use the gravlift or whatever those are, so it has to climb over them :'^) And in other unrelated things

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A WAD MADE BY OBLIGE? DO YOU THINK 100% IS BULLSHIT, AND YOU SHOULD HAVE TO RUN PAST CYBERDEMONS AND SPIDER MASTERMINDS AND HOPE THEY DON'T KILL YOU BEFORE HITTING EXIT BUTTONS? AMMO A LUXURY? MOBS SHOULD BE SPAMMED?
TRY https://mega.nz/#!0hlXgYLJ!7ZgjyTkWGj5cEznjyjbvnHaotVK9AePMOAZ82LpRAiY
Build game was doom 2, and zDoom if that matters for oblige.
You might not think Ammo is scarce at points, but trust me, it's very varying. Also, by map 11 I still haven't found a chainsaw if there is one by that point

>>3044235
I actually have tried doom touch, it was version 4.0.4, and i have placed Iwad files where i was supposed to. When I tried to play the game, app wanted to download an update, but it looked like it couldnt connect to the server

I still need some more to try out my new custom DOOM monsters in Spellcross Arena.

I didn't get many replies last thread and would love to share this with you guys. There's 32 new custom monsters for wads to use, but for now you can fight them in this randomly generated arena.

More info here: http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=49873
Download here: mediafire.com/download/4ta6poh3gh066fb/Spellcross+Arena+V1.0.zip
Wad Requires HARDWARE (OPENGL) and a semi-modern source port (Zandronum etc)

>>3044236
Acrobatic mancubi... The thought horrifies me.

Imagine having a player run out of ammo against a lone mancubus and start running for a distant cache, only to see the mancubus chasing him with a similar level of agility... and keeping up. (For a while. Then it has to 'cool down'.)

>>3044236
>that bouncing at the end
adorable

I want a friendlies server in Doom 4 so so bad

I'd imagine jumping on top of a revenant and flying around with him, or mancubus walking around while aiming upwards

>>3044236
I found something really neat in the multiplayer Alpha.
You may not be able to rocket jump anymore, but you can in fact Gauss Jump.

>>3044292
you'd think how they decreased self rocket damage would actually encourage rocket jumping , kind of like in quake 3. maybe there's a command somewhere in the files dug out.

what you can do though is enable bunnyhopping through a console argument, and fucking suprise, it actually makes the game play at least 50% less of a fucking slideshow in result.

>finished inferno

Now I hope Doom 2 doesn't have this many teleporting enemies.

>[03-04] Anon map release: helltour.wad
A suggestion for the author: please avoid grids of slow moving perpetual floors, they are most irritating to navigate

Curses to E2M3 for unleashing them on the world I guess

>>3044314
there's a few, but not like every level. one of my favourites is the blue key trap on doom2 map16, it's a big crowd but there's lots of room, and no hitscanners, so if your dodging is good, it should not be a problem.

>>3044303
This one you mean?

>>3044314
You should play Doom 2 before Thy Flesh Consumed. That's the order they were made in.

>>3044314
you might actually be better off doing doom2 then come back to doom e4 afterwards

>>3044340
I will never understand people's obsession with that feature. I would prefer player max speed to be higher than to be pressing jump everytime

>platforming
>insta-death pits
>no saving of any description

Holy shit fuck this game. Why did they make the game so fun and then ruin it by having this fucking bullshit. Having to start a level all over again just because I didn't make a jump is so fucking infuriating.

>>3044340
Why don't they just have Doom engine style strafe running?
Strafejumping is far more of a Quake thing.

Anybody tried gz3doom? I thought it was pretty cool though some maps were too hard to beat with it (or maybe I was just a chump, either way couldn't clear E4M2)

It was really easy. To dodge cybie rockets in 3D

>>3044365
yeah there's a limit to the number of unsuccessful tries, and replaying the same thing over and over again, before it stops being worth it. patience is a virtue i lack
>>3044374
gz3doom? can't say i've ever heard of it

>>3044314
thy flesh consumed is nothing to write home about, in my honest opinion.

the levels feel rushed with either
a: claustrophobic, convoluted landscapes (i.e. E4M2)
b: open, blank space with a larger monster count than most doom 1 maps

>>3044365
git gud desu

In all seriousness, Powerslave is probably one of my favourite games of all time precisely for the reasons you mentioned. Then again I'm prepared to acknowledge that I'm weird in loving insanely difficult first person platforming.

>>3044385
There's also a few other things that really annoy me, like how every time you re-enter an area you somehow forget the map layout. Respawning enemies is fine, but I was just fucking there. It makes no sense. Hell even Hexen remembered where you went.

>>3044393
I can tolerate first person platforming to a degree, but losing 20 minutes of progress just because I didn't jump properly in a first person SHOOTER is just unacceptable for me.

I am really hoping Night Dive studio didn't pussy out of releasing a remaster which will hopefully have a save system of some description.

>>3044365
Duke and Shadow Warrior are full of bullshit platforming too. 3D platforming when you can't see your feet and the controls feel like every surface is made of ice. No thanks.

Come to think of it now Shadow Warrior isalso filled with tons of retarded insta-death bullshit. Fuck you, 3D realms.

>>3044436
Perhaps, but at least those games allowed you to quicksave.

>>3044434
if it inspires original content i don't mind it, but not if it just produces low content /v/ meme spamming

so this is why z& is littered with complex doom

https://www.reddit.com/r/Doom/comments/45j2mu/i_can_honestly_say_that_complex_doom_is_the_best/

>>3044436
Honestly now, Shadow Warrior would have been a much better game if it wasn't for the awful platforming sections that broke up the flow of things.

Also what is it with 3D realms and their love of suicide enemies? Duke had those fucking drones, and Shadow Warrior has those assholes that run into you with a box of dynamite.

>>3044424
>>3044434

s-stop liking what I don't like p-pls

>>3044454
the idea is sound - melee opponents that are truly dangerous in melee range. contrast doom's demons, whose bites are embarrassingly easy to avoid because they stand still while attacking. a suicide bomber has a large radius of effect to be concerned about.

>>3044434
I wish there would be some variety to it, not just "DO", "NOT" etc etc.
At least be creative with your repetitive joke.

>>3044457
if you like every thread to be full of low-content shitposting i suggest this isn't the board for you, one of the faster-moving ones might be more to your tastes.

>>3044457
Listen, it was fine the first few times you guys posted it, but now it's starting to get on my nerves. Just let it die.

>>3044459
Pinkies are fucking scary with -fast

>>3044454
I hate those drone thngs, worst enemy in the game but at least those dick ass drones aren't instakill, they hurt but it's less than 50 dmg pretty sure. Those assholes with dynamite do 80+

>>3044454
I love Shadow Warrior but the platforming never really bothered me (although I wouldn't miss it). Off the top of my head, my biggest issues with the game were:

-Grey/Orange ninjas could insta-kill you with their rocket bullshit
-Coolie ghosts were annoying to fight
-The shotgun was pathetic.
-Regular ninjas could down you way too quickly. It's
not as bad as Blood's cultists, but still really annoying

>>3044225
Noice.

Would still prefer B with A as a reversible, than current with B or A as a reversible.

>>3044490
I'd rather B be the reversible. A would be incredibly easy enough to get all the crap off of, like publisher logo, specs, and all that. B would be harder.

>>3044495
Can anyone help me out with some dehacked editing? i'm trying to load out a dehacked on a wad into whacked but it gives me a "list index out of range" error.

>>3044509

Can you describe in detail what you're trying to do, and give us the actual files you are using?

Did anyone else hate TNT as much as I did? Let me sum up what I remember TNT as being

>narrow corrider
>DOOR OPENS BEHIND YOU
>narrow corridor
>DOOR OPENS BEHIND YOU
>narrow corridor
>DOOR OPENS BEHIND YOU
>turn around
>DOOR OPENS BEHIND YOU
>Look left
>DOOR OPENS BEHIND YOU

The whole megawad REEKED of poor craftmanship and unoriginality. Seriously, who thought it would be a genius idea to force the player to shoot rockets BELOW the opening of the Icon of Sin? And the beginning of the level? I forgot I loved Doom because of all the gimmicky platform puzzles.

>>3044494
>DUUUUHHHHHH

>>3044518
no, there were quite a few maps in tnt.wad i really like. i agree the last level was pretty bad though. i don't like puzzle maps or boss spawner maps and it was both.

Can we talk about how fucking cringe Zandronum community has gotten

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/70834999/Videos/Zandronum.mp4

>>3044494
like it, good shading

>>3044528
It wasn't devoid of good maps, but every good map was sandwiched in between 15 shitty ones.

For comparison, I played Master Levels back to back and I was absolutely blown away by ML. It felt like the creators were inside my head, knew what I was going to do next and had accounted for it

>>3044530
>has gotten
Is it really especially shitty now? I thought it was always bad even back in the Skulltag days.

>>3044530
not sure if i'm supposed to be sneering with the creator of that video, or at him

damn if I'm loving the B cover

how's this though

>>3044548
I like it, except for one thing. Doomguy's helmet looks a little blue. I don't know if that's intentional or not so don't take offense to it.

>>3044518
I don't hate TNT for that but I do hate TNT for having really fucking ugly maps.

>>3044554
it's okay for the time it was made (which i think was late 1994 / early 1995).

what do you think of its contemporaries? do you find all maps from that era too ugly?

>>3044530

It's fucking awful.
The server list is nothing but the same things.
The forums are dominated by either dumbasses or shitheads who think they're funnier than they are.
The most popular server cluster is administrated by a fucking retard who doesn't play Doom, doesn't care about Doom, and doesn't care to keep his servers updated or address any issues popping up.

Why does the best multiplayer source port have the worst community?

>>3044560
TNT came out in 1996, and one year later GothicDM came out, so they could have done a lot better and chose not to.

>>3044553
actually the purpose of the pic is just me wondering how it'd look showing off the arms

i realized a few seconds after posting it that the helmet looked like absolute shit so please disregard that. point is it should look black/a slight tonality of grey to counter all the green from the chest and legs, it just didn't come across as such because i literally tweaked the helmet at the very last second as an afterthought and didn't give a single shit about how it actually looked like.

>>3044563
which server cluster are you talking about? the only one i've heard of is best-ever

>>3044572

That would be it.

>>3044518
No, I love TNT.

>>3044554
I think it looks fine.

>>3044570
GothicDM and Gothic99 also ran like complete shit on most machines at the time because there were like over a hundred linedefs/secors in every room.

>>3044571
Oh, okay. Thanks for the explanation, anon.

>>3044570
you are not wrong, but please remember it was made a long time before it came out. it was completed in november 1995 and was about to be released when id swooped in at the final moment and offered to release it commercially. that they accepted the deal caused quite the controversy at the time.

anyone know where I can find a copy of newgothic movement 2 at its latest version? Last I saw it was the first 6 maps I think

>>3044576
My computer ran it fine and it was slightly above average AT BEST. Don't hate GothicDM just cause people don't like TNT

>>3044513
Sure thing.

I downloaded a copy of "the crafty titan's doom hack" which some of you must have already played before. I'm trying to modify the dehacked file inside a bit to ake it compatible for zdoom 2.8.1. But the file crashes out whackED when i try to load it, again it gives out a "list index out of range" error

http://pastebin.com/NgMnNXqp
here's the pastebin of the file if that helps.

>>3044518
I like the layouts themselves if that accounts for anything??

shitscanners never posed that much threat for me first time playing it either t.b.h, didn't even really notice or mind them either until i saw people complaining about them years later if im completely honest

it was mostly imps who carelessly chipped away at my hp because i was young and dumb, i do recall plutonia seeming pretty fucking insane when i was way younger and cursing at the mapmakers for putting archviles revenants and mancubi on the very first level and thinking 'just what the fuck, who could ever find this even remotely fun'. i'd still take TNT over plutonia any day of the year imho though.

>>3044592
I don't hate GothicDM, I think it's fucking beautiful, but there's a reason people weren't going insane with detail at the time.

Remember, this was a commercial release, and it should ideally be able to run on even a dated machine.

I honestly think the visuals in TNT are fine though.

>>3044592
i'd also like to add there's quite a difference between the state of the art of mapping in 1995, and in 1997, when lots more techniques to exploit the software renderer had been discovered, in particular "as much fake 3D trickery as possible" was expected.

>>3044325
Hah, I'll keep that in mind, but I wanted to try everything at least once.
At least it's an optional area.

>>3044256

Anyone? bump.
I was waiting to see /vr/'s opinion over them. Please try them if you like new monsters.

>>3044518
TNT is mostly great. Only map08 and map22 were bad for me. And while I'm not the biggest fan of its map30, I can at least appreciate it for having some shit to do before the boss.

>>3044602
I don't hate the visuals, I just don't think the level design is good. I've been designing Doom levels for 8 years and you very quickly discover what works and what doesn't. I'm not saying there's no place for tight levels, but a megawad full of them?

They made some bold choices, and for me, most of them didn't pay off. My high water mark of good level design is Master Levels. Interesting, memorable levels, perfect distribution/ratios of enemies, perfect ammo placement/distribution. And again, not all of them were 100% great, but almost all of the Master Levels were excellent or very close to it

>>3044576
Pretty sure it was only gothic99 that had performance issues. Unlike the first 2, it was limit removing.

>>3044530
>Odamex and ZDaemon will never have a lively community
>ZDoom and GZDoom will never have good netcode
>Zandronum will continue to be the only option for DOOM Multiplayer
What the fuck is even the point

>>3044631
Just play singleplayer exclusively. I have no friends and I've never been happier.

>>3044256
>Wad Requires HARDWARE (OPENGL) and a semi-modern source port (Zandronum etc)
sorry, i don't want you to think you're being ignored, but i'm not really into this kind of thing at all

i hope someone tries out your stuff

>>3044596
one thing i forgot to mention, yukkuri doom hack is in itself a modified doom2 wad. IT comes with an old build of zdoom, thats why i wanted to adapt it to a newer build.

>>3044596

i am one hundred percent sure the author himself posted a iwad-less version in our threads months ago

>>3044653
ill find out in the archives, thanks.

>>3044256
Pretty neat. The monster being isometric plays with my head a bit, but it's clearly a labor of love and is a neat little playground.

I set up a server called "Spellcross Arena" (because I'm original like that), and it seems to work fine multiplayer, though I'm the only one in here right now.

Seriously, how good you can be at making levels look as good but play so fucking bad?? This might be one of the most potentially good mods ever made, but it falls so fucking hard it's hilarious.

>Atrocious writing
>Shallow gameplay
>Infuriating level design

It's like the most show-off-y thing I've ever seen, but I just wanted so much to like it

>Playing Scythe 1 on UV-Fast with the Smartmons.wad
I made a mistake.
>Can't circlestrafe most of the big encounters.
>Barons in map 17 are nearly unkillable unless you somehow make them not get alerted and then pick the yellow skull.
>Map 19 in general.
I am not sure if i will beat this thing but god damn, i made a nice progress.

>>3044617
> I'm not saying there's no place for tight levels, but a megawad full of them?

Thats a contradictory statement.

>>3044646

There was no way I could create new monsters without being re-skins for older ports. Majority of them use new code to create new gameplay options, but still limited as to be played on Zandronum for multiplayer reasons instead of what GZdoom offers

>>3044665

Thanks. I looked at various games to adapt. Dungeon Keeper came close to bring into DOOM, but I didn't have all the files and some DK monsters have been created. Spellcross was all new, some monsters work better than others.

also LINK ME, I love to play multiplayer with you! is it on doomseeker??

>>3044703
>Smartmons.wad
link?

>>3044724
>also LINK ME, I love to play multiplayer with you! is it on doomseeker??
Yeah it's up there. I'm shitposting on /pol/ atm but I can hop back in.

just look up spellcross arena in the search, it should pop up

>>3044735

Nope can't see it. I cant host due to port forwarding, are you certain its there? Ip search?

>>3044712
You want to explain further or just keep being a dumbass?

>>3044745
you might have to wait for it to refresh again.


76.103.113.209:10667

>>3044760

I tried IP in Zandronum console, it wont connect.
Just because the server appears your side doesn't mean others can see it. It must be blocked (port forwarding?)

>>3044768
I know I'm connectable. I had a few people in another server yesterday. Ports are all forwarded.
Not sure why you're not able it.

>>3044768
Actually... try now. I had 2 servers up and that may have been messing with it? i dunno

>>3044747
My point is, you can't say "I'm not saying there's no place for thing" and then backtrack on that immediately with "but a megawad full of them?". It makes you sound like a tool who's trying but failing to sugarcoat.

Somebody else remember playing this?

>>3044786

nope no good.
I have latest Zandronum and Doomseeker works fine (top server is complex alien vendetta)
is this correct?

Also while i'm here are your Spellcross monsters affected by Adjust Spirit Clipping? This if fixed if "never" but how can I make this work for everyone?

>>3044804
Yeah. I'm running Z& 2.1.2.
complex alien vendetta is top server

Not sure why it's not showing up.

>>3044480
Those ninjas with grenade/rocket launcher are awful. Just like with the dynamite guys and the shitty platforming it's another hard-to-avoid instakil mechanic that removes fun.
Also in one of the expansions there are these beeping landmines that can also instakill you, you can't shoot them and they only spawn when you get close enoughtodie to them. The only real way to avoid them is to know where they are so you can tread just into the trigger zone and run away. Without quick saving I'd have quit at that part.

>>3044820

I fiddled around with my Doomseeker settings in the past, and while I see most servers (sometimes even /vr/ servers) is there any other engines or unfilters I need to find yours?

hey, can we confirm that ijon tichy actually lurks here? Because I would sure as hell love to know if Dakka will ever be complete or not. I can't stop fucking playing it

Hey, to the anon who was looking for a link to smartmons.wad

here is the zdoom link and the mediafire as well

http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=50517

>>3044830
I wouldn't think so. just uncheck your filter entirely.

>>3044847

Oh well I wont be able to join. If no one else has then something is clearly blocking it (did your IP get changed since last used?)
I try and solve Port Forwarding tomorrow so I will host in future

>>3044860
My IP is dynamic, but I redirect it through a url anyway, and I also just joined by ip myself and it worked fine.

>>3044256
Don't take this the wrong way anon, but I don't really see the isometric perspective of the monsters working "normal" doom gameplay.

Now for a top-down perspective RPG or strategy game in the engine (it has been done and it works well!) it would be an amazing resource. Something akin to a TC based on the gameplay of Nox(2000) would be even easier to implement for a modder, and could be a really cool game. I'm just too tied up in other ambitious projects to even think about starting a new one. If you or anyone else feels up to the task I'd really encourage trying that out.

>>3044878
>>3044860
Look one more time. I may have done something dumb.

>>3044878

I think I just connected
I dropped 10667 port and it seems like i'm in. "old games and shit" right?

>>3044480
There is literally nothing wrong with blood cultists. They're enemies with realistic reactions and firearms. If you treat them as such and not as doom shotgun guys, you will have no problem.

no, I'm waiting until march 9 when people are supposed to actually start DUMPing

>Finally found a right retro pc at a right price
>P4 2.66
>1gb of RAM

>Sound Blaster PCI 3000
>$10
>Been fucking around all day getting all the drivers for 98se installed
>Finally finished
>Installing Quake Gold
What am I in for, Guys? Will I enjoy single player? Never played any of these golden age PC FPS because the hardware was always too expensive.

>>3045027
It's slow going, but it's at least happening.

>>3045057
Don't start with Quake. Start somewhere else. Not Quake.

>>3045057
>Quake Gold

But yes I enjoyed it a lot, just watch for self damage, it's very easy to kill yourself in Unreal.

>>3044672
After few initial levels author just gives up and starts shamelesly copy-pasting the whole sections of the levels - in one case you had to run around a huge facility (mirrored) and press same buttons in the same 8 huge rooms. Also - pointless switches galore - most of the time there should be one switch in a room theres two, or sometimes even three that had to be flipped. Most of the time they are even directly near each other, so what's even the point?

>>3045014
>when you touch it it folds up and plays its death sound
>ERRWRRWRWRRRRR

>>3045067
I started with quake and I'm perfectly fine here and now

don't know what the fuck you might be on about tbph

>>3045116
Good for you, faggot. Why dont' you suck my dick?

>>3045027

I've been downloading music I think would fit in a doom map from the mod archive. Now just have to actually sit down and build that map...

Why the fuck does changing resolution for One Whole Pint Blood in steam destroy everything? If I differentiate from 800x600 it turns into black or into tiny little square boxes. This garbage is starting to annoy me.. cfg doesn't work, options don't work, setup.exe doesn't work...

>>3045134
wow rude

>>3045134
you seem pretty un-fine

did you start with quake (^:

>>3045027
Released one just yesterday dingus.
Also
>seeing someone stream your map
This is great. Makes me want to make more maps.

>>3045078
Shit my bad I also have Quake II here.

Unreal was alright but the graphics weren't as silky smooth as some captures I've seen. Do I need to get a Voodoo card?

Also why can't I get it to go full screen?

damn son, this looks fucking great

>>3045136

NVM I just used the Doom settings to fix everything in DOS. No issues for that, but now I get retardedly high FPS and I'm not tryin to play Blood like its 2016. Is there a way to manually cap the frames?

>>3045164
Yes I agree that's another problem I'm having but my display doesn't want to recognize any 16:9 resolutions the Radeon wants to output.

>>3045159
It might depend what Driver you're using in the advanced options. Software mode is quite pixelly (and doesn't work correctly on newer computers).

No idea on the fullscreen part.

>>3045027
I'm trying to come up with a new idea for a map right now actually.

>>3045232
make a map that's actually the mona lisa when viewed from above

the hardest part will be the smile

>>3045237
>spoiler image
Doesn't work on /vr/ and doesn't work with mouseover.

>>3045000
That's nothing, I've gotten up into the millions before.

Then I usually manage to kill myself right after.

>>3045237
I'd like to do some kind of image that would slowly reveal itself to the player on the map, I'm just not sure what yet. I did letters before and you guys didn't like it.

>>3045153
Who was streaming?

>>3045240

an idea: someone blowing the cart

>>3045247
Wouldn't work because you occasionally get an aeris spoiler.

>>3045254

I still don't fucking know how THAT got accepted. Fuckin' overhyped trash.

(the moment, not the game)

How do you guys even see in Doom when it's so dark? I have to use the infra red goggles to navigate

>>3045268
I always play at 1.5 gamma on ZDoom.

>>3045268
the occasional light is nice

>>3045262
>(the moment, not the game)
What? You mean how Aeris's death got accepted as a spoiler image?

How old are you? (not in a condescending way, just curious about your hype-meter)

>>3045268
>>3045272
if gzdoom try using the flashlight mod, otherwise just mess with the gamma

>>3045184
I remember having no issues with GOG version of Blood, but some stuff gets broken at FPS higher than 50-60, like hand choking tics are fps bound so you cant take them off and die in a matter of moments if your FPS is too high.

>>3045254
Is THAT what that fucking is? I've been confused at it every time I've seen it.

I'm finally doing the score rewards, and this time instead of a full heal, you'll either get ammo regen + damage reduction (on every odd reward) or an extra life for that map (on every even reward)

this is the extra life after some basic effects applied

>>3045303
whatisthis

>>3045281
>How old are you?

may I ask what does that have to do with anything¿

>>3045307
it's a dumb weapon mod that makes most maps easy and slaughtermaps actually kinda fun

http://git.jinotra.in/ijon/dakka

>>3045303
Oh, neat.

>>3045254

Occasionally? I've never seen the spoiler be anything other than the Aeris dies one.

>>3045301
Yeah, it's not well cropped. It's one of those "Oh, I see it now!" things...
>>3045314
Well if you were of age when FF7 was new the spoiler tag image makes sense. The internet was new and it was one of the first big widely spread spoilers on the net. Vidya-wise at least. To the point were it becamse a joke. "AERIS DIES!", "BRUCE WILLIS WAS DEAD THE WHOLE TIME"... that sort of thing.

Which makes it fitting for a spoiler tag on /vr/. It's directly related to /vr/ and was a huge spoiler during the time.

>>3045329
It's also an NES cartridge sometimes.

>>3045334

Personally, I've never seen the NES cartridge one.

>>3045339
Weird.

>>3045027
>What am I going to put in this part of the house?
>Fuck it, the entire section is destroyed and full of spiders

Is there a way to change an actors property in decorate using action functions?
want to have an actor change height when it crouches. I fooled around with A_SetUserVar but I couldn't work out how to set the height to my user var.

Supposedly height is a variable in decorate, I'm just not sure how to manipulate it from the states.

Also behold my latest enemy, the arachnosferati. moves fucking fast and melees your ass with poison damage. Also makes creepy sounds. this abomination is a direct result of spider-demigod fuckery. (you hear the voice in your head "These fools are not my servants... yet..." then nosferati hosts are teleported in in extreme pain, and immediately explode into this new creature)
please ignore the pink pixels on the wall though. haven't fixed that quite yet, as easy a fix as it is.

>>3045350
actors can't change height in zdoom because graf is too pissy to let modders take responsibility for enemies resizing

I like slaughtermaps

>>3045352
going off of that

I ran into the 128-map-variable ACS limit, and guess what graf's attitude on that is

hint: pissy as always

>>3045391
Could you try using a dummy map to run more scripts?

>>3045393
nope, this is global ACS

(I have a shitton of subsystems running together, and the "use arrays you faggot" thing doesn't work because 90% of them are already arrays)

>>3044789
You know, being unable to figure out people's meaning is a sign of autism. Or have you never heard the phrase, "Good in small doses?"

Hello, /DooM/, what are some good bright (preferably sunny) maps to play on a cold gloomy evening? Preferably no slaughter.

>>3045397
You're on 4chan in a thread about a 22 year old video game. Expect some autism, anon

>>3045027
I finished it and released it yesterday, it's at the top of the second part of the news post.

I got so wrapped up in making the map I paid no attention to the fact that DUMP maps should still be in the planning phase.

>>3045390

cool. you like doom maps and that's fine by me.

>>3045394
okay yeah I've gotten it down to 117 map variables, spread out over 69 files

a whopping five of them are not arrays, and two of those keep track of how many entries are in other map arrays

>>3045350
Think that would have to be done in ACS.
Maybe this?:

>http://pastebin.com/nwNNjyFH
fuck line 21 is supposed to be SetActorProperty my bad

>>3045423
>>3045426
won't work, you can't set APROP_Height through SetActorProperty

>>3045423
I thought I would be able to dot his in ACS, but I dont see "APROP_Height" in the list of properties you can change. I'll try it anyway, but It sounds like changing height on the fly is not a thing in zdoom yet. Supposedly the problems lay in what would happen if an actor got too high for a sector.

>>3044436
Platforming in Build3D cannot be done any other way but shitty, it is the engine. Still, shame on them for relying on it in the first place.

>>3044447
I suppose both came as a pack. [Sign]

>>3044256
Wow. I missed the previous thread, but your mod is great anon, really great, and even the isometric view on the original sprites do some good work adding some perspective to them (sadly, that only works well for humanoids, and balloons are just suffering from the wrong perspective). I liked the teleporting ones, and especially the visual effect of Death Rider. Great work anon, great work indeed.

>>3045390
I like slaughtermaps, to a degree. I enjoy the ones in stuff like HR, AV, KS, Scythe, SoD, Resurgence, etc.

Not a fan of Sunder, Newgothic, Combat Shock, Sunlust, etc though.

i might actually be making a watered down slaughter map for dump

minigun versus zombiemen
imknow the rules said 'no new weapons', but i have the power of ACS!

Been forever since I caught up with the status of Doom wads. Has anyone managed to successfully incorporate multiplayer with Reelism?

>>3045561
Zandronum 3.0 I think supports it with ease now.

Okay so I ditched the chainsaw thing.

So if you hold secondary, you whip out the laser pistol and start shooting an- HOLY FUCK LOOK AT THOSE ANIMATIONS, IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS MADE BY SOMEONE COMPETENT

>>3045562
That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Thanks.

>>3045272
Wad?

>>3045027
I tried to get into it, but I just can't get into it, alas. I hope they'll release proper mod tools with D44M and a Hammer-like mapmaker though. Hammer's the shit. At least, when I last used it which was when HL2 was still unreleased.

What are some not that hard wads?

Something more or less like Doom II or even Plutonia.

I started to play Scythe, but the last levels kicked my ass badly.

I'm not that good playing I guess.

>>3045563
Looks pretty good so far, are you planning to make more weapons?

>>3045573
Well there is always the master level pack for doom 2 which can be found at the OP, i thought sycthe 2 was easier to be honest but it could be just me, valiant is also fine

>>3045576

for Bomberguy? Yes and no. The bomb gun and pistol are your only weapons but you'll be able to upgrade the shit out of the bombgun and one upgrade is for the pistol, so you'll have different bomb types to switch between.

>>3045593

What Hexen wad is that?

Hey, to whatever guy was waiting for score rewards to get added back into Dakka: they're back in now

>>3045683
The one I'm building!

http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=50891

Its taken 2 months so far, I have 10 maps. Still a lot of work to do before the second hub is finished though.

>>3045693
Are the 3 classes still in with all their weapons or are there gonna be just guns?

>>3045693
kind-of looks like Blood

that's a very, very good thing

>>3045682

>>3045692
Whoa what, when did you do this cool TITLEMAP? it's really sweet!

>>3045697
All 3 classes are retained, all hexen weapons and items are retained. The mod is about the combination of hexen items and weapons and ww2 firearms.

I really love the balance of shooting shit and throwing flechettes, freezing a guy, then popping a health potion and firing a panzerfaust. Adds some nice dynamics and gunplay to hexen. There are a few puzzles and wtf did that switch do moments though

>>3045698
I used a lot of blood textures, as well as the cultists audio for an enemy, and I have a caleb winchester sniper as an enemy too, complete with voice acting.
Also used some textures from Outlaws and Realms of the Haunting.

I just uploaded the latest version to the zdoom forums, if you want to try it out make sure you have "a_morte_255.rar"

Lookin' kinda cool.

>>3045708
Alright, you got me interested.

Also
>cultists audio for an enemy
GERO SHAY CRUOOOOOO

>>3045693
I like it anon, i really do, keep up the good work!

Am I the only one that thinks that soft lighting in Doom looks disgusting?

Soft edges clash with the pixels.

>>3045705
a few days ago

it has absolutely nothing to do with anything in the mod, but it gave me an excuse to add dumb quips

which means it was necessary

>>3045714
crudux cruo!
yeah I couldn't resist.
Here's an early clip of my cultists, a frost magic and a revolver variant. Also some caleb in there, but with the old sprites, new sprites are much better and aren't bright green. Winchester reloading hasn't been implemented here either
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYsNWq7DKuk

>>3045718
Thanks! hopefully should finish sometime in the next 2 months.

>>3045719
You're not.

I absolutely hate soft lighting because it won't work with shadows.

>>3045719
I think any form of opengl lighting effects is bad with doom. Game simply was not made with it in mind, and looks out of place.

I also am of the opinion that unless you use Shaders/Software lighting mode, OpenGL makes doom's sector light levels in maps way too apparent, resulting in an unnatural look. And even then, OpenGL has true color lighting, which takes away a lot of the neat effects from doom's colormap gradients.

So honestly, I prefer Software renderer for playing Doom.

>>3045728
Looks good.
I hope there's the "IT BURNS! IT BURNS!" line in there.

>>3045693
>Пpoтивник зaмeчeн, пoлтopa килoмeтpa!
Agent in couple of steps from you shouldn't really use the line about enemy 1.5 kilometers away.

>>3044236
How do you enable the other demons anyway? I cant figure it out for the life of me

>>3045753
On a certain plebbit/r/doomleaks you can find a demon rune selector thread. Or so I've heard

Working on a HUD, I fucking hate this part, so I may as well get this over with now before I start working on the bomb types

>>3045742
heh I have no idea what the Russian means, thanks for translating. All I knew is it was combat info given by a squad leader before an engagement. Its still keep-able though? she could be referring to another enemy further ahead?

>>3045736
Sadly I dont have burning sprites for any of my enemies, and I cut the flaregun in favor of the revolver. Flaregun just wasn't the same without enemies burning to death. Revolver is great though, very hard hitting at close range.

>no dynamic stat leveling
apart from vitality and energy, plus maybe capacity for 5 levels if you start at 1, they're all fucking useless, I love how they make a sound and spin around on the monitor just to tell you that you have +1% extra damage

>you can't buy 3 pages of DoomRL weapons, 1 page of armors and 1/4 of the boots
what's the point of compatibility then, might as well rename the "shop" to "battle rifle -> shield converter"

>augments
>level 1 - 2x max health

>level 3 - 5% status effect resist

>>3045771
Yeah, it is totally keepable, least in my opinion.

>>3045771
I'd chop the audio file and use just "Пpoтивник зaмeчeн!" part though.

Pilot seat.

>warned for a two letter post over 12 hours after the fact

are you fucking kidding me hot-pockets?

if you're going to act so offended over nothing, at least attend to your board

>>3045702

the lighthearted tone of the Mother series just doesn't fit the Doom universe in my mind

a Doom RPG mod that's not Doom RPG would be interesting though

>>3045272
Nigga you have MasterEffect running with bloom and some crazy darkening filter

>>3045391
>I ran into the 128-map-variable ACS limit,
Use an array with named constants to refer to your indices

>>3044256
I kinda like it, although as other anons said the perspective for some units looks really odd, also how did you come up with the stats for units? Based on their performance in the original game or by yourself? Fortress of Terror is fucking mental, same goes for Archers, the elite ones shoot for 80+ worth of damage, just want to be sure that it was intentional design choice.

>>3045781
Doom rpg is extremely impressive in how it handles, stores and uses data.
Unfortunately it's a bad and ridiculously bloated system in actual gameplay.

>>3045268
i can't play doom without a flashlight mod anymore

what the fuck is this

>>3045897

It's a TV, silly. Whack it with your sword

>>3045897
A television with legs. That is what the real Hardcore Doomers play Doom on.

>>3045897
what mod is that

Quickly whipped this together if anybody wants it because reasons

>>3045951
thanks

>>3044885

I'm just making certain, is your OPENGL option got "Adjust Spirit Clipping" set to never? it looks wrong without it.

I wanted to create new sprites for new monsters for a fake DOOM II expansion, I had some really great new ideas to the game in which some of them was implemented into the Spellcross Monstrs (see teleporting etc)
But I dont intend to stay overlong with DOOM with a long project so I needed smaller. When I got ahold of Spellcross sound and graphics these enemies have 8 directions, movement and attack animations... and with the theme of what they are they can be wonderul additions to the custom database of DOOM monsters (realm 667). Not every custom monster is perfectly adapted to fit the DOOM style but I did as close as I could with what I had and I fully believe they work.

>>3045475

Some monsters work better than others. With vehicles, Knights of Death and Dragons I had to make them more interesting with the lack of movement animation. Some look a bit off like Balloon, but just treat it as a sentry-flying machine than a big zeppelin.

>>3045827

Just making certain was your OPENGL Adjust Spirit Clipping set to "never", it will look wrong if it isn't.
Yes the stats are new, a lot of the monsters have new features to make them more interesting for a DOOM wad. It can't be slower missile like the old DOOM monsters since the difficulty of the game has changed now with freelook, jumping and general better control. So they have to be more difficult. Fortress is a deadly boss that needs open space and the Archers are all damage, no defense.

I'm happy so many people are enjoying my wad. There's a server online on Doomseeker, but the guy hosting it doesn't have a smooth connection and there are a fewe new bug issues I've discovered because of it.
I hope that these Spellcross monsters live on through other wads with lots of custom monsters, as was my intent.

Not the guy you're replying to but...

Noting is going to make isometric sprites work in doom. That's probably hard to hear, but honestly, it's not going to matter how good your design is if you've got those sprites making it look like ass.

So you need a ton of new sprites. Your best bet is to learn how convert 3D models into sprites. Doesn't really matter if you don't know 3D modelling, there are tons of 3D models you can download or rip from other games.

I can make a guide for you're clueless on how to do this.

just finished the second episode of valiant
is it just waay too hard (just run and hope you have an opening) or am I just so bad that I couldn't finish the episodes last level in 5 tries or less
because fuck if I want to kill all of those overpopulated maps

...

>>3045976
valiant maps are stuffed with health resources, encouraging aggressive play but giving players a large margin of error/ability to soak up lots of damage.

bump it down to a lower difficulty level if you're struggling.

>>3045978
i hope that's a soulsphere

>>3045973

oh sorry didn't see the no reply.

If you meant my Spellcross wad only a few vehicles have a few odd-turns, and I've tested enough times to make battles feel right for them. 5 monsters never made it into the pack since there was no way I could make them work without heavy editing (and could be a later edition once solved). Kamikaze Birds and Dragons had to have their front and back worked a bit too.
I think with custom monsters nothing is ever going to come close to how the DOOM monsters look, but if you can get an illusion of how they can work for FPS perspective, then I fully believe it will work for new monsters for the game.

>>3045984
yeah but first time playing you have no idea where the health pickups are
also no I simply refuse to go from HMP to a lower difficulty. that is insulting

>>3045991
being aggressive means pushing out into the unknown. you put yourself at risk of death, but the more you play, the better your gamesense & ability to read and adapt to situations will be too.

if you're not willing to bump down the difficulty, keep grinding away at the maps until you improve or move on to something else.

Guess who took too much time making cool looking but potentially unfitting ammo pickups?

This guy

>>3045985
Nah, it's a key.

>>3045998
that poor clip wants out

>>3046006

Well I'm calling the bullet-based bombs ballistic shells, so I felt like it'd be appropriate for the clip to be going apeshit.

>>3045990
>oh sorry didn't see the no reply.

My fault.

>I think with custom monsters nothing is ever going to come close to how the DOOM monsters look

You can get decent results from 3D models. Here's one done with Street Fighter 4's Cammy model.

>>3046008
can you tint the things inside the spheres to match the sphere colour? or is that not something you can do in a texturedef

>>3046014

Tinting and blending is really inconsistent and tempermental within TEXTURES, like it'll look nice in the editor, but in actual gameplay the results vary WILDLY.

I could probably try using translation but just the very thought of attempting to recolor that clip in the ballistic ammo sphere is giving me anxiety

I should probably make the Blast mod pickup nicer looking, and start working on making this shit actually -work-

Ayyylmao
http://youtubedoubler.com/?video1=BkaC1-QoraY&start1=0&video2=3SAFSz8yxrE&start2=0&authorName=

>>3046018

okay I made the pickup for the blast mod nicer looking, and now it floats.

I don't think this mod could get any more abstract or thematically mismatched, but it's okay because I'm making this based off more old ass video games, so it fits that theme

Iam so hyped for this

>>3044364
>>3044348

It elevates the multiplayer competition allowing for skillfull players to do skillfull moves. Strafe-jumping and rocket-jumping is hard, but once mastered it becomes a game of both elegance and gore, its a beautifull thing to see.

>>3046040

LegendDoom is gonna be one of the better co-op mods to come out in 2016 from the looks of things.

Christ I hope it works in Zandy 3.0

>>3045997
killing everything just seems to take forever
same with sunlust but with that I just cannot finish some without saving during the level which feels extra scummy

>>3046040
two words:
explosive. chainsaw.

>>3046047
>Zandy

Sounds like a bizzare version of Tandy computers.

>>3045807
What if it was about Kurashiki's Doom demons?

>>3046046
No problem with rocket-jumping, I only hate it in Rocket/Clan Arena because it lose the risk-reward factor that originally it had and it becomes an all purpose panic button

I'm just saying strafe-jumping shouldn't have that much focus as to immediately hate a game if it doesn't have the feature or even if it's slightly changed to be easier or whatever

IMO a FPS game should be about shooting not about jumping.

>>3046050
then you're doing something wrong. monster density in valiant isn't much different from other pwads and enemy health values are unchanged. maps are of a short to average length too, there's nothing that stands out as particularly arduous or grindy

come to think of it, it should take a shorter time to kill stuff on average because you have more powerful weapons like the upgraded chaingun available to you.

don't forget, you always have the option to leave things alive if need be.

>>3046010

I think about it, but i'm personally quite happy as they are, and I don't think it needs to be adapted like this. I could believe that system is needed for SF4 models and other more complicated conversions.

>>3045951
that looks nothing like the nobody fag from Doom 3.

>>3046115
I always try to let them fight themselves and never bother going back if I don't need to backtrack
just strolling around and bam there is an archvile or two with some hitscanners that finish you off and it's back to the start
taking my time in a level just feels a waste when I die so I scout and hope for the best
how many tries did it take for you to complete some of the harder levels for the first time and do you not use saves
I want to compare how bad I am

>>3046164
Looks like the doomguy that was in quake 3

Finished one for a group project, ran out of steam and it's a little short/shitty. (Tex Extra)
Other one is WiP (for another group project, 64 x 64)
Haven't even gotten back to my own project, but I compiled the files for it.

Pic related to the nightmare I'm about to incur to myself over spring break.

ps. I love this general and you all are very swell people.

Is there any other game like Hexen? Where you go around in a dark fantasy setting wielding huge axes and shoting magic, etc.

Hexen is the only one I know but I'd like to play others, if any.

>>3046183
>64x64

As in, mapsize? How would that work?

>>3046192
64 x 64 grid size. Vertexes are only allowed on 64x squares. You can have them at any angle and thing placement is also up to user discretion.

>>3046189
dark messiah is similar
dunno about big axes though

Is it possible to bind two actions for one linedef? Like that: the button lowers the floor and unlocks the door at the same time?

>>3046216
Can be done easily with the right functions in ACS. If you want vanilla, you will need some voodoo doll coding.

>>3046047
>Christ I hope it works in Zandy 3.0

It doesn't.

>>3046216
Depends on your map format:

Vanilla: not possible.
Boom compatible: voodoo trickery via moving floors.
UDMF: No problem with ACS.

Hey /vr/, what mods would you recommend for enhancing animations, sounds, and textures in Doom? I know about Smooth Doom but that causes problems for me in BTSX, so I'm looking for an alternative.

>>3046239
Beautiful Doom

>>3046242
I was just checking that out, since I remembered someone suggesting it to me, but I don't really like the way it looks.

>>3046239
There are none compatible with BTSX.

>>3046257
Ah, I see. Well, doesn't really matter, since I can play the game normally anyways. Are there still good alternatives to Smooth Doom though?

fucking arch shitters rendering a map nearly unplayable in Hideous Destructor I swear to fucking god

>I prefer Software renderer for playing Doom

>>3046234
>>3046227
Thanks. It is a script language i believe, can i find a manual somewhere?

>>3046272
please turn off RGBA8 in your reaction picture

>>3046272
i prefer the software renderer for most early 3d games, looks better aesthetically

>>3046281
Might as well ask, I never really understood the texture formats when messing with them in Zandronum. Which one should I use?

>>3046279
Check out the ACS page on the zdoom wiki. It's extremely well documented and has a lot of examples.

Just an FYI: you can kind of do it in vanilla doom, if one of the effects is opening a door with an awakened monster behind by setting a bunch of monster trigger lines "inside" the door sector I believe. The player triggers only the the door opening, while the monster(s) trigger all the other effects.

Call me back when OpenGL gets the colors right.

Until then, software mode looks better.

Since Doom 4 is all but confirmed to have a modding kit as well as the Snapmap thing, do you think you'll be spending any time learning to make maps for it?

>>3046372
I cannot wait for the fucking flood of e1m1
I love map editors so yes but I want to try and make something different
maybe doom 2 levels from map1 and forward

>>3046372
No because my PC is too old to handle it.

>>3046372
Probably.
I have literally no experience making maps that aren't for the original DOOMs, so maybe if I learn how to do modern day mapping on a really advanced, difficult, and fucky system, I'll be much better at mapping in stuff like Source and GoldSrc.

>>3046372

>>3046372
I've only seen it in E3 presentation video, and honestly it looked like editors from TrackMania or Crashday. But it is Bethesda, so something like GECK may actually happen.

>>3046397
it has to be done. but something tells me there is going to be some kind of limit to prevent cpus from melting.

>>3046416
>I've only seen it in E3 presentation video
no you haven't

>>3046421
yeah not thousands but something like nuts-lite

>>3046328
the monsters are doom 3's but the ''''doomguy'''' (if you could call the doom 3 fucker anything close to that) isn't is what I'm getting to

>That horrible feel when games will never return to an animated face on the status bar/HUD.

That' seriously the thing my dad/granddad loved about it. The look of "oh no, he's all fucked up, but he still smiles when he gets a gun" was what they recall fondly.

>>3046010
Cammy anon, your stuff is pretty neat. Have you done a full spritesheet?

>>3046424
He meant snapmap, not the modding tools. As far as I know, the only real clue we have to modding tools is references to it from the cracked/datamined alpha and a "maybe" from them after the community backlash when they said "no modding tools, just snapmap"

>>3046457
I'm not really a fan of it in FPS games because it's slightly immersion breaking, but it's *great* for anything with a bird's eye perspective like rpgs and strategy games.

>>3046492
What about face reflection in helmet instead of just random bloodsplats on hit.

>>3046492

I don't mind if it's a toggleable option, but I felt it was more immersive to me.

Even now, when I play other shootbangs and I'm low on health, I have a major disconnect of "oh no i get hit and gameover, reload save, wowee", but in Doom, it's "holy shit there's blood coming from all of my orifices won't anyone PLEASE find me a medkit"

>>3046492
how does it break immersion? you're playing a character not yourself.

>>3046491
>He meant snapmap, not the modding tools.
i know, that's why i said he didn't see the tools at e3
i was being, you know, an ass

>>3046493
Reflections are fine, as is lens/visor dirt in the right kind of game. Can really add to the immersion.

>>3046495
Don't get me wrong I like it in doom and it's part of the charm, but I really can't see it working out in a modern shooter.

> "holy shit there's blood coming from all of my orifices won't anyone PLEASE find me a medkit"
This could be represented on the players arms (and body if it's one of those games where you can see your legs) instead though.

>>3046490
Evenin' Lydianon.

I did all the default doom animations for her, yes. Here's a gif of xDeath

So in dehacked, I'm trying to make an object that's pushable. I tried doing this with a negative speed, and using "chase" as a melee attack on the object, but it won't trigger the melee without having a chase state occuring before it. So I'm not suuure if there's a way to do it. I tried lowering it's mass and having a damageless explosive projectile as melee attack as well, but apparently things are pushed based on damage done, so that didn't work at all.

Anyway. Curious if this has been done in vanilla or not. I'm just about out of ideas.

>>3046515
Freakin' neat. Those are always fun to make.

>>3046509

I guess I can agree. I found Far Cry 2 (and I guess 3? I stopped after it/Blood Dragon) did it pretty well, with healing at a certain low point of health meant resetting bones, pulling out shrapnel, etc.

and the first level holy fuck I must be bad

>>3046537
OMNOMNOM

>>3046535

I remember these sprites. Aahh, that was so long ago.
Did you end up making a full sheet of them? I could probably use/edit them for a thing.

>>3046546
>wolfenstein: new order

>>3046563
Ah, but that game is modeled after classic FPS games, and is a reboot to a series of classic FPS games.

>>3046554
I have a full sheet rendered out, but only a a few rotations are detailed at all.

Not sure I have a death animation knocked out either. I'll check sometime today.

>>3046546
Far Cry comes to mind.

>>3045998

>>3044452
is there anything particularly bad about complex doom other than its oversaturation? I tried it once in singleplayer and it feels like a decent weapon and monster mixup

>>3044791
I was more fond of Corridor 7

>>3044672

This is how I feel with half of the slaughtermaps out there.

Beautiful architecture, atrocious circle-strafe-for-20-minutes segments, usually with no chance to cause infighting. But maybe I'm just weird, because I enjoyed Sunder a lot more than I enjoyed Sunlust.

>>3044452
>take another look at that sub
>they legitimately play brutal doom with everything

why

>>3046645
Did you honestly expect redditors to be anything but a bunch of bandwagoners?

>>3046452
You seem quite angry at the Doom 3 main character, what did he do?

>>3046653
Have a face and be kinda blank... OH WAIT A MINUTE

>>3046594

Even if it's not detailed, I could still very easily make use of it, if you don't mind.
Thanks for checking.

>>3046176
i play on uv and don't use saves. a good few maps managed on the first attempt, the majority took 2-3 and a few took a bit more effort (map9 and map20 come to mind).

i didn't find valiant too difficult compared to most of the modern pwads i like (scythe2, sod, sunlust, pl2 etc).

i've been playing for years though.

We love you too, anon. What map was it by the way?

>>3046653
I'm just not quite fond of him 's all. I get he's supposed to be an empty canvas for the player to fill just like classic doomguy, but he, for starters a) doesn't even look like doomguy, b)is scrawny as shit, and c)besides not having an actual personality, that
look of perpetual tedium upon spotting a new enemy and his permanent 'goddamn no restrooms here either' face, I really can't bring myself to seeing him as doomguy perse. he doesn't even begin to look as particularly scared or as determined to kick demon ass, he's just some random soldier dude with a set of really weak guns and ridiculously slow movement who for some reason didn't die when the demons kicked the door off and slapped everyone's shit.

>>3046656
nah.

>>3046674

First actual map for Brutalist, a dumb project I'm working on that's going slow because college/horrible financial situation/other vidya games/other mapping projects I got myself into.

I went "Yeah I don't feel like mapping, but I'll add a titlecard and music" and next thing I knew, Map03's definition went kaput.

>>3046662
me too, guess this is just somehow fucking with my human brain because scythe2 was way easier in my opinion
you get to blast with bfg 247 and it wasn't really too pleasant of a wad
sunlust has more claustrofobic spaces and I am way behind in that
plutonia2 was not too hard
but 2 to 3 tries? jesus I just might break

>>3046682
Can I see the link for the test version? I'd love to try it out.

>>3046658

It's only the beginning.
Save the invulnerability sphere for activating the cybie, then lowering the lift to activate the yellow key trap with revenants, grab the key and make a break for the elevator all while invulnerable. Cheesy strategy but it works.

>>3046705
Oh, ok. Just wondering, have you encountered this glitch? It occurs when you run down the hallway with music.

>>3046682
>college/horrible financial situation
Fuck man, that's a horrible fucking comination.

I had a close call with slade once as well. Somehow it's temp folder didn't erase itself, so it overwrote the first X entries in my mod with some garbage from another mod I'd been looking through before I figured out the reason.

>>3046716

>>3046730
Ok, now it's happening whenever I walk down that hall.

>>3046691
Why is this sprite more obviously a 3d model than >>3046535 ?

I'm guessing you did some work on other by hand?

>>3046738
yes please

>>3046730
No, it might be due to a misplaced teleporter function. I had the issue before that release, but no one reported it afterwards.

It is an old version I likely need to re-check for bugs. It uses a really sloppy teleport-to-linedef in triplicate in that hallway because I had issues with it in singular. I'll check it again when I start to work on it.

>>3046731
It's not ~that~ horrible, it's more I just can't really go anywhere/do anything with my current loans. Can't get a decent job due to the college commute/hours needed so my loans pile up higher while my euro friends get all access paid to their upper education. Thankfully, I'm in the last year and the loan repayment is extremely cheap/low interest.

>>3046740
Yah. That and the higher fps probably helps. The running animation is the same frames as the SNES samus, in almost the same position.

>open darkwar.wad
>this

>>3046662
no wait I was thinking of plutonia 1

>>3046751
Makes sense.

Also goes to show how much good a few manual alterations to the render output can benefit your sprite.

>>3046752
There's a map in ROTT titled "This causes an error!". When you start the map, a pushwall makes its way across the room and out of the map, crashing the game when it escapes. You're presented with that image and then booted to DOS.
