if you are reading something it is coaxed see german speak german see fairy speak fairy no amount of making up is going to sow a field no amount of taking from no thing is going to make a quilt of truth no amount of standing there and playing around in prior experience [making up which is disregarding source] is going to build a house

it does not have to do with if it is true it is there therefore warranted every thing about christ is about taking away denying like taking away the allegory from the man on the cross fixing prana of soul to a specific frequency like how the heart symbol diversion is not in your chest but two serpents meeting at the nose the arrow symbol fix prana it is like saying pinch a loaf and a kid walks up and pinches a loaf of bread oh i am going to go off and rise in three days and be ressurected [magnum opus immortality reverse aging] a stick man on the cross is older than the jew corruption Satan Prometheus was chained to the rock illustrating regeneration [liver example] before christ so what you are saying is like questioning wither you are reading letters or not or if you are staring at a monitor

lets read about mythical characters slowly opens book
stop
why couldn't you know without seeing it

why did i not think of this

well thought is tangible i have swallowed a memory and it came back up and i swallowed it again experiencing it all an entity has to do is eat your prana which is light thought memory this notion of control over thought is like say you rule the world it is not creation it is distribution if you are not Satanic you continue being ignorant slave your Father wants you to hit the bully back
a spirit has made me do something wrong and make me realize it half way through

I had a hunch you're taking the piss, and on opening the level in GZDB it was confirmed.
But just to humor you, I'll accept it as a secret map anyway.
Thank you for your work.

ancient meme

>>3290632

DUMP's hub runs off a set of "X maps until you can reach the final map", and each level (obviously) reduces the counter by one.
Secret levels bypass this, and are completely optional. DUMP 1 had a map that broke the rules (custom monsters), and DUMP 2 had a map that was just baaad.
DUMP 3 will continue this tradition, optional maps that do not reduce the counter and do not need to be played to continue.

I already had a fantastic contender for a secret map, and this will be another addition to the secrets.

>>3290643
would it just be bad enough to have some type of..."quality control" so that a map someone put no time or effort into doesn't make it in?

especially since this is the only map ive seen that is purely fucking trash

wow Ancient Aliens with Demonsteele actually makes it fun

DUMP map I'm working on, looking for critique on ammo balance mainly

https://www.sendspace.com/file/u9jn2s

layout is about 80% done (need to refine a few areas and add stuff beyond the yellow skull door), texturing/detailing is heavily WIP, doubt I'd get proper detailing done in time

recommended to play in OpenGL at the moment, as 3D floor rendering bugs in software mode make it easy to know what you're going to face in certain areas. also if you don't like slaughtershit I recommend HMP rather than UV

some poor sap just set up a new thread on vg for that sinking pile of crap pretending to be DOOM

>>3290809
Better there than here

>>3290752
Are you implying that Ancient Aliens isn't fun without it?

>>3290751

There is. Maps like this get thrown into the secret area, where people don't have to actually play it.
Or I could just throw it into the recycling bin, like I've done to several wannabe trapwads, but it's more fun this way.

If there's a better ("better") secret map, I'll replace this with it.

>>3290809
ok? They've been having generals for a while

>>3290518
WHOOP YOUR .WAD ON THE COUNTER

I think you should exercise a barebones standard of quality with DUMP. Sure most people contributing are new, but it takes literally less than THIRTY MINUTES of watching tutorials to learn how to make something less shitty than "5000 imps in an untextured map with a broken skybox"

When there are other newcomers giving it all on their first couple of wads, it cheapens DUMP to allow trash like this in, even as a secret

Just a reminder to pirate the IWADs if you want to play DOOM, Heretic, and Hexen.

Bethesda has delivered the ultimate slap to the face to John Carmack and his work for the company by developing a VR version of DOOM without him. The icing on the cake is that they're doing it with Oculus' direct competitors, the HTC Vive.

>"But it's the new game!"

The last thing Carmack was developing for id was SnapMap, so by any means, that counts as working for Doom '16. They don't deserve your money for the 1993 game. Check the pastebin for a link.

>>3290918
Only total not-in-the-know idiots buy Doom on Steam.

>>3290820
not on UV it isn't; it's a painful slog

>>3290918
>>3290923
i have yet to meet a person who bought the games on steam and doesn't exclusively use gzd and bd

>>3290918
ok

>>3290768
What rendering bugs for 3d floors in software mode? I made a bunch of 3d floors as a learning exercise and if I have to junk them now I'll miss the deadline for sure.

>>3290925
Really? I've enjoyed it so far.

Anyone here prefer software rendering over opengl rendering?

>>3290934
to each their own i suppose

>>3290936
ever since I found out GZDoom's openGL texture filters could be reverted to software type rendering I pretty much never went back to ZD's jaggy shit free look because playing Hideous Destructor with it was an insurmountable pain.

>>3290936
No, I don't like 25fps.

>>3290932
this tedious shit when looking up from a sector with a non-sky ceiling, for example

>>3290926
What's so bad about GZD? Apart from MUH CHOCOLATE?

>>3290926
What's wrong with GZDoom?

>>3290943
So it mirrors the floor items on the ceiling? From the real floor or the 3d floor?

Either way I don't think it will overly affect my map.

am i a pleb if i only use zdoom and zandro

>>3290950
no, those are Z-positioned above the 3D floor, software mode renders through the 3D floors yet OpenGL is fine

>>3290926
GZD is absolutely fine
As long as you turn off the filters

Is there a way to set the mouse so it only turns (no freelook, no movement) in PrBoom+?

>>3290926
I use GZD but not BD
Checkmate atheist.

>>3290961
>turn off the filters

Absolutely this. Filtering doesn't even look nice at all.

>>3290926
Without the filters turned on, GZDoom is totally fine. I can't believe there's people out there that only use Brutal Doom to play Doom.

>>3290821
I think most of all, it's setting a bad example for the author of the level. Rejecting the submission would at least tell him something is wrong with the map instead of rewarding laziness. Then again, knowing the guy behind it, maybe it doesn't matter.

>>3290952
i dunno maybe? is there a particular reason you only use zdoom? i prefer glboom+ but some wads need z/gzdoom. I like using CN DOOM for speedruns. I have like 10 source ports installed so maybe im just some obsessive source port hoarder.

>>3290914

Yeah, that's a fair point.

>>3291000

Well, shit, trips of truth.

>>3291002
>is there a particular reason you only use zdoom?
>some wads need z/gzdoom

there we go

>>3290972
options > general > press right arrow twice > enable mouselook no

im pretty sure you can just press \ to cycle it off and on. i forget if that's the default key.

>>3291008
>>3291008
also if you dont want mouse movement just turn vertical sensitivity to zero. that's what i did at least. options > mouse sensitivity

>>3290942
I don't experience this in software rendering.

>>3291008
I ended up editing the .cfg but thanks anyway.

>>3290957
Well that's substantially more annoying but at least I'm not using 3d floors to hide anything. Just for another dimension of movement.

Software mode doesn't fuck up polyobjects too does it?

Playing Crispy Doom with OPL music and hearing the crunchiness of the weapon sounds just makes this the most comfy source-port, perfect for playing 90s era WADs.

>>3290972
Turn off all sensitivity sliders except horizontal off, this shouldn't happen if you set mouselook sensitivity off.

>>3290941
I just generally prefer software rendering cause of its lighting system (even software lighting mode in OpenGL mode doesnt quite feel the same, even if its among the better modes), and that colormaps in stuff like BTSX actually rely on software rendering to have their full effect.

I'm someone who only uses mouseturning, so the warp effect on looking up and down was never a relevant concern for me, though I can understand why freelook users would prefer OpenGL because of that.

>>3290926
I have my steam setup to use all sorts of source ports through a frontend launcher. I for the most part use PrBoom+

>>3291015
Didn't polyobjects originate from Hexen?

>>3290942
you probably need to turn on uncapped framerate in the options menu or in the config file. that isnt exclusive to hardware rendering.

>Using a Tome of Power causes the Firemace to slowly launch huge metal balls that bounce around, seek enemies, and kill any non-boss (including other players, even in invulnerability mode) in one hit, but deal only 18-144 damage to bosses. The power mode shots may also travel through teleports and can even telefrag the one who fired it.

>If a player has a Chaos Device in his inventory when a powered sphere hits him, he will automatically use a Chaos Device and lose half of his health.

>A notable feature of the Firemace is that it only has a ~75% chance of appearing in a level when not in the deathmatch gamemode; also, when multiple Firemaces are placed in a level, only one has a chance to appear, allowing for some minor randomization in Heretic maps.

Huh, the Firemace was a bit more unusual than I thought.

>>3290942

Wha? An uncapped framerate doesn't require OpenGL rendering.

>>3291015
>>3291028

Yep, they originated in HeXen. Don't see any reason why software rendering would break them.

>>3291031
unusual?
the firemace is completely nuts

Fuck

>>3291146

>>3290936
yes. i deleted the opengl renderer years ago, it was beginning to bitrot.

Sunlust is tearing my balls off.

>>3291152
Dunno why it's doing that. I played it in GZDoom a while ago and everything was fine, aside from some music sometimes not playing for some reason.

>>3291162
I think that's basically the whole point, anon.

>Doom 4 weapon sprites for Doom
>All of them great except for the Super Shotgun, which is also without hands and the reload animation people use is really weird
>Only SgtMark made it not look more natural so far
I don't even know what to think.

I'm really thankful there's Doom 4 in Doom sprites though

>>3291170
I know.

At least earlier are not yet completely unreasonable.

Also, found secret exit - that was an easy one.

>>3291162
>All those wasted BFG shots
Use the plasma rifle more anon, god damn.

Anyone know any good tips for when you don't know how to progress on a current map project? Would it be wise to just throw out multiple random shapes and attempt to mold them into something? Right now I try and get one room done before moving to the next but I feel like doing that causes me to get hung up on trivial details and ideas.

>>3291195
Take a break

Try a separate map to work on using ideas you had while making your previous map
Play good levels for inspiration


You should set up a basic framework for what you'd like your map to be like at the start
Then you make the map.
Then detailing comes last.

I'm getting to the point where I have way too many wads to manage manually. What launcher does everyone use these days? Looking for one that lets me swap between multiple ports.

>>3291219
I use ZDL

>There are people who call Plutonia bullshit and unfair

It really isn't.

>>3291348
It's just very difficult.

>>3291358
Exactly. Its very difficult, but also fair enough to allow you to learn from your mistakes, gain map awareness, and adjust your playstyle accordingly.

>>3291397
I'm no good at it at all, I need to save scum a shit ton.

Its also easy in places. pl29 is one of the few maps I can do pacifist.

What's the difference between this release of Shadow Warrior:

http://store.steampowered.com/app/358400/

And this release?

http://store.steampowered.com/app/238070/

I noticed one is published by Devolver (for free) and the other by 3D Realms (for $10), so do they share publication rights and 3D Realms wants to sell something that Devolver is literally giving away for free?

Please tell me there's a Trump themed wad out there/in development. Trump's face on HUD, Muslims and Mexican rapists enemy sprites, and audio samples from Trump speeches a la Duke Nukem..

>>3291403
Savescumming is the easy way out. You're not going to improve that way.

>>3291439
One is just dosbox. the other includes a source port.

>>3291447
Nah. I think your best bets for /pol/ type wads are pol.wad (duh), and that can't corner the dorner one from a few years back.

>>3291454

No, I believe the one with the source port is called "Shadow Warrior Redux", and is in its own *third* package:

http://store.steampowered.com/app/225160/

So what the heck is with these two? Unless you mean that one is just DOSbox, one is dosbox + source port, and the third is Redux?

>>3291457
One of the two you linked literally says "Buy Shadow Warrior Redux"

>>3291463

They all have different appids, storepages, names, and screenshots though.

One is called Shadow Warrior Classic (1997), another is Shadow Warrior (Classic), and the third is Shadow Warrior Redux. For whatever reason, Shadow Warrior (Classic) only lets you buy Shadow Warrior Redux from its page.

>>3291469

It might be that for whatever reason, Shadow Warrior (Classic) needs its own store page to be registered as a separate game on the user's game list.

Isn't there anisotropic filtering so that you get less distortion at angles and distance with some patterns? While otherwise not doing any bullshit to smear or smudge out the pixels?

>>3291526
To me, thats just a case of "i died because of unexpected trap, better take note of this and adjust". I don't see that as unfair, because even though you'll likely die if you're playing the map for the first time, its some map knowledge you gain and can use to prevent yourself from falling for it again. If its a mapset, still keep it in mind for later maps, because it may and probably will happen again.

Bah, I think I'll move onto working other map for now. I kinda feel like working on something smaller while incubating ideas for this one. Spark Mandriller theme is stuck in my head, so I feel like making blue-themed techbase

>>3291565
That's essentially trial and error gameplay, and that's bad.

I'm sure you don't actually like it though and are just tolerant of it.

I'm not. If dying in a trap is the only way to prepare for the trap then the mapper needs to learn how to make better maps.

We need more open source, free-as-in-freedom memes. I refuse to use proprietary memes that don't respect my freedoms.

>>3291864
Doom is free software. Freedoom is free art. The only thing proprietary about Doom is the art, level design, sound assets and music, Stallman and the FSF are fine with proprietary art.

But its not. Dying to the trap isn't the only way to prepare for it. The only reason you would die to it is because you didn't expect it. You are supposed to expect them. Falling for the first trap is supposed to teach you to "expect the unexpected", but you can also use this mindset from the get go.

Guys, how do I get bmouse.exe to work with Blood? I extracted it to the folder where I installed Blood, went to the Setup, change my controls to "mouse+external", change the name of the external device to "bmouse.exe", and saved the settings. I did everything just like the instructions told me to. But when I run the game it doesn't work. It's like the mouse is not even plugged in, not even the buttoms work. I'm using the GOG version btw

What is the point of Freedoom? The ability to play pwads without owning Doom?

>>3291904
Pretty much. It's also pretty novel to go back and play famous megawads with it. I just wish they'd finish the new monsters faster.

>>3291904
Mostly to help create your own games. I'm fairly certain that anyone can make their own game with the Doom code and release it commercially. GLOOME is another resource for that. No one has done anything noteworthy with it though, just IOS/Android games.

>>3291912
Also, the graphics are GPL, so it also doubles as a resource pack for sprites and textures.

How does this look like for a starting area? I'm going for a claustrophobic level, but something tells me this might be a bit too narrow.

Doom threads on /vr/ are one of the few recurring threads that aren't shit. People are always posting stuff they're making, new wads and mods they're playing, and posting feedback.

Most other long-lived threads are "emu scum, hardware master race" or "CRT master race" threads or console war threads. Then you have a bunch of non-recurring threads where somebody posts a game that came out twenty years ago and it gets maybe ten posts... because it came out twenty years ago and there's nothing new to say.

>>3292083
>Doom threads on /vr/ are one of the few recurring threads that aren't shit.

That's because they're the only thread that has a mod in it. Someone posted vintage porn in a (boring) thread about a month ago just to prove we don't have mod attention and it stayed up for 28 hours.

You clearly have never been to /gccx/, /org/, or in fact many other threads.
One instance a month ago does not mean anything.

I first discovered Skulltag around 2003 after my IRL friend got banned from ZDaemon and we had to switch and I swear to God the community has gotten even worse somehow.

Why do those guys even play Doom? Is it because their PCs can't handle anything else? 99% of players just stick to these wacky mods that change everything so much it's not even Doom any more. And those that don't insist on playing with that Complex/Brutal Doom bullshit. I remember briefly back when .97c was the current version that UDM3 TDM was someting that happened every day but those days are long gone.

I prefer Odamex but it's dead as fuck. ZDaemon's the only one I enjoy playing now but nobody from 4chan seems to play it. Zandronum being FOSS is nice but everything else about it makes me want to fucking kill myself.

IKTFs. Nobody I know online plays Doom and I've not had anybody to play with since I was a teenager. I want to meet some people to play with and become besties but I've had awful experiences meeting people from /v*/.

>>3292173
Well if you want to play something specific I suggest you to set up a BE/TSPG server (or host one yourself) and either just join it and hope someone else joins too (which actually works sometimes), or ask people on IRC to join.

>>3292173
>these wacky mods that change everything so much it's not even Doom any more

I'm really not seeing how this is a problem.

If you want something vanilla, host it yourself.

>>3292164
/org/ itself gets deleted 70% of the time. The fact that anyone even knows it's a thing is a great failing on the part of the mods.

>>3292189
I used to host dozens of servers years ago. I just play single-player now or ZDaemon if I want FFA (Brit10/exec/asdfjkl mostly).

>>3292190
>I'm really not seeing how this is a problem.
I have no problem with mods but when the mods are so crazy it's absolutely nothing even resembling Doom any more I don't see why they bother with Doom and not just switch to something else instead.

Though the amount of south american/eastern european players makes me think it's because of poor hardware.

The fact that doom is capable of being modded to such a degree is fantastic, and further development will continue to do more things with it.

Obviously it will never be a replacement for vanilla, nor should it be, but I see no reason to embrace it instead of being upset that a mod has surpassed X amount of "like Doom"-iness.

>>3292190
>I'm really not seeing how this is a problem.
Not him, but it's not so much that the mods change too much from the core gameplay, but it's the fact that 1. In my humble opinion they suck, and 2. People play mostly the same 2 or 3 mods
>Brutal Doom or some variation of it
>Complex Doom, aka generic randomizer with pretty effects
>All out War 2, some stupid mod likely inspired by some modern shooter I don't care about
You really have no variety when it comes to what you wanna play.
And you know what, when the only mods being played are the ones that change everything about the way Doom plays, then you know that the playerbase doesn't care about Doom, they're just in it for the mods and because their computers suck. To make it clear, I'm not a purist by any means, I'm just saying what I get out of observing the Zandronum playerbase.

>If you want something vanilla, host it yourself.

Nobody is gonna join the server. Maybe one or two guys at most. We'll have a half hearted conversation while we play, then they'll leave after a few maps.

Trailblazer, in Heretic, with my expanded support/monster pack addon. It has a ton of options for the player to choose, like 'pistol starts' the ability to hold healing items a la vanilla Heretic, and a ton more.

All monster variants can be activated and deactivated at will, and you can choose how often you want enabled variants to replace the standard monster.

>>3292221
When you've modified literally every aspect of the game, including the aesthetics, gameplay, and engine, to such an extent that it is barely recognisable as the original product, can it really still be called Doom?

I think it's great that the modding community has done this stuff. Personally, none of it interests me whatsoever, but it's not so much that its existence annoys me it's more the fact that the vast majority of the players of the overwhelmingly more popular source port exclusively play them. So I'd guesstimate that at least 50% of the Doom multiplayer community doesn't play anything that even remotely resembles Doom. And that sucks because I want to play classic Doom but it's hard to find players from /vr/ that want to do that. And the fact that Zandronum is so popular but has such little new-school gameplay sucks (I don't think these mods can be considered new-school, there needs to be a new term for it).

>>3292236
>And you know what, when the only mods being played are the ones that change everything about the way Doom plays, then you know that the playerbase doesn't care about Doom, they're just in it for the mods and because their computers suck.

This! This! This!

>Nobody is gonna join the server. Maybe one or two guys at most. We'll have a half hearted conversation while we play, then they'll leave after a few maps.
This, too. And if I'm going to be getting semi-serious about trying to complete these WADs 100% as a team or whatever I'm not sure if I'd want to play public anyway. I'm not saying I wanna go full tryhard but I at least want to try a bit, you know? Let's work together to complete some of the awesome stuff people have put out there over the years.

>>3292198
> when the mods are so crazy it's absolutely nothing even resembling Doom any more I don't see why they bother with Doom and not just switch to something else instead.

Do you know a good game that is like Project MSX with the speed and dodging in first person?

Or something like Hideous Destructor where you're fighting demons in an incredibly uphill battle where you're fragile as hell?

Lots of mods don't really have equivalents in gaming, or it's entirely possible that the options that are available have been played a whole lot already and they'd like to play it in classic Doom.
I don't think there's anything wrong with it as long as they're having fun.

On another note:
I always play Doom with two personal mods, one makes it so Invulnerability spheres don't make it black and white. I can't actually see when it does that because it hurts my eyes to even look at it.
And another one is Doomgirl

Seriously though, point me to more games like Project MSX.

>People play mostly the same 2 or 3 mods

This is really the only problem, imo, more than "people making stuff that doesn't adhere to Doom", which is really I think an incredibly silly complaint.
Thing is, there SHOULD be an equivalent balance, but there's very clearly a divide. As Zandronum's main selling point is the ability to mod and mod very well, a lot of people are going to want to do that, but it SHOULD be where modding ability is a benefit AS WELL AS the ability to play vanilla in new and interesting ways.

I think this has also caused one of the big divides in the competitive scene today, but
>competitive doom
that scene is nigh-insalvagable.

>>3292274
>This is really the only problem, imo, more than "people making stuff that doesn't adhere to Doom", which is really I think an incredibly silly complaint.
I've tried to clarify that this isn't my complaint. My complaint is that this is the only shit that they play and most will vehemently refuse to play anything else.

>Thing is, there SHOULD be an equivalent balance, but there's very clearly a divide.

I guess. I'm too tired to comment on that.

The competitive scene is dead AFAIK and mostly exists on Odamex. I've never been a part of it so I'm out of the loop.

why does every single Hi-Res pack look horrible?

>>3292198
>I don't see why they bother with Doom and not just switch to something else instead.
Because there isn't anything else like it.
I used to have a good computer (RIP) and could play a lot of new titles, but I didn't really want to because they weren't really that good. I think the last modern game I'd had fun with was Shadow Warrior 2013, and even then I used that as a basis for a mod.
Doom modding, and indeed most retro modding as a whole (rom hacks, Neverwinter Nights campaigns, etc) is a wonderful trove of creativity since people are guided and working entirely by their own ~*~vision~*~ rather than budgets, production plans, and publishers.

Even the fucking awful stuff, like Swan Fox or Ocean 2024, still have that gem of real effort and love put into it.

>>3292257
>When you've modified literally every aspect of the game, including the aesthetics, gameplay, and engine, to such an extent that it is barely recognisable as the original product, can it really still be called Doom?

Personally, I think Doom is what you make of it.
I've long had a theory that Doom players are split into two groups: Those that enjoy the original game and want to expand that more, and those that enjoy the tech and use it as a platform to build off.

>>3292285
>I've tried to clarify that this isn't my complaint.
Right, I was just using it as a comparative point. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

>>3292293
>Those that enjoy the original game and want to expand that more, and those that enjoy the tech and use it as a platform to build off.

Thats is a nice way to put it.

>>3292293
>I've long had a theory that Doom players are split into two groups: Those that enjoy the original game and want to expand that more, and those that enjoy the tech and use it as a platform to build off.
this sounds about right

>>3292220
It kinda is now that I improved it slightly. Voodoo-magic, no ACS.

Although I nicked the idea from Proxyon of Sunlust, the effect will do nicely for the map. The sort of powerplant, blues sparks in darkness. In fact, I am currently using Spark Mandrill theme for the stage.

PIRANHA BOWL UPDATE

I added shatter sprites and sound, now it actually kinda looks and sounds like the bowl would shatter. I also shifted all hands a bit lower so people with the small hud don't have floating arms.
The throwing animation still looks shitty, however, because I can't get the overhead throw motion to work. I would need larger arms for that and all I have it pic related. I also now changed primary fire so that you can pour out only one piranha at a time. Always five seemed a bit silly, this one is more logical. That way you can keep pressing the fire button and just let out a continuous stream of piranhas. Furthermore, I decided this is a BFG tier weapon - a 100 piranha bowl thrown at a cyberdemon make goulash of him in mere seconds. I still couldn't fix the "nothing thrown" issue, as I have still no idea what causes it. I use A_SpawnItemEx with a probability of 256, shouldn't that make it spawn every time?
Also, I don't know whether having skeletons like that one guy described would be possible, as I noticed he wanted to call them on projectile death - but the piranhas are rippers, so they would have to be called on monster death.
Feedback and criticism always appreciated. And forgive me for being such a shitty sprite artist.

>>3292173
>Is it because their PCs can't handle anything else?
Yes, it actually is. Everyone going on about content creators and such are talking about an entirely different community from the subhumans that make up the Zandronum playerbase. These people don't have a single care for good design, balance, or tact. They play Zandronum because their toasters can't run anything newer. If a multiplayer game exists, Zandronum modders knocked it off and stuffed it full of memes, and it'll all run on their Pentium 4s at 1024x768 with silky smooth 15FPS. That's why they play the port.

>>3292286
I think it's honestly because the people making them tend not to be terribly good artists.

I mean, it's all of the difficulty of spriting, only being applied to familiar sprites with an even higher level of detail.

is it pure nostalgia or was there something bout this games feel/plot that was never matched by other games?

i love it how in early 90s gaming, god tier science fiction (arthur c clarke, robert heinlein and asimov) and lovecraftian themes were the main inspiration.

then they switched to shitty star trek tier and faggy medieval fantasy

Are you using the SXF_NoCheckPosition flag? (or whatever it is)
And what I meant about leaving skeletons is is radius giving an item that calls acs in its pickup state and goes from there. Do the pirhanas target enemies at any point (do the use monster ai like a_chase) or are they just dumb projectiles? Even if just dumb projectiles, could leave skeleton by alternating a_radiusgiving item that starts script that checks if actor is monster and not a corpse, then gives an item if so, and starts a script to remove one of the item every tic, item has max of 2, skeleton script item is constantly being given at the same time in projectile loop state and checks if is a corpse and has skeleton oitem to prevent other corpses from turning into skeletons if don't want. More reliable is give to target. Most reliable is custom death states, but then you're replacing all monsters and killing compatibility with other mods for single weapon.

>>3292468
>>3292486

Some of Strife's latter level designs are really not great. Like Bishop's Fortress: Central Administration. An aimless switch hunt that'd make Hexen blush. And that's not the only level where that's the case.

>>3292312

>I use A_SpawnItemEx with a probability of 256, shouldn't that make it spawn every time?

Exactly the opposite. A_SpawnItemEx's chance parameter is the likelihood of the actor *not* spawning; you want to set it to 0 if you want it to always spawn.

>>3292034
If you're still here. how do you plan to do all the new monsters? are the sprites already made?

So guys, I'm going to be uploading playthroughs of various WADS to YouTube and I'm curious.

Just about finished with Scythe on UV so that will probably be first. Some of these end maps are hard...

So, hey guys. I'm about to do something that I'd normally kick myself for, but it seems like everyone across the world has been struck with a unanimous case of "man if only I had a couple more days..."
Now, if it was just me, I'd basically go "well tough shit I gotta get through", but I've noticed a hundred other folks are feeling the same as well.
Either due to exams, or work schedule, or motivation, or etc, people are getting overwhelmed.

So, I'm extending the DUMP 3 deadline. Now, the submission time is June 20th, instead of June 16th. Five extra days! Or four, if you're not counting the 16th as a separate day.
If you were feeling "oh man I'd love to map but I only just now got an idea", now's the time to blitz for it.
If you were wrestling with exams this week, now you've got another half-week to work on things.
If you've etc etc etc, you get the point.

Enjoy, mates. Take a break tonight. Have a drink and a nice meal.
Then work hard and make something good.

Snapmap is fucking awful. Why did they waste time on this?

>>3292951
FUCKING THANK YOU

>>3292951
hallelujah

>>3292951
Well, this gives me some breathing room.

Do you guys ever get stuck cuz of limited supplies or health, or just totally get your ass kicked for like 25 minutes cuz you got no gear

Man this whole revenant shit and such are so disrespectful towards the original games. I hate you guys and wish you cancer.
What are some of the more grounded mods/packs, ideally ones you could confuse with something ID did, at least at first glance?

>>3292985
Doom The Way id Did?
Doom 2 The Way id Did?

>>3292976
A couple times. 2 out of 3 times I learn I was just not managing ammo well, too many wasted or missed shots or not using explosives at proper range when I had the chance

>>3292985
rude

>>3292985

>Man this whole revenant shit and such are so disrespectful towards the original games.

Isn't Plutonia infamous for having a bunch of Revenants?

Rate it lads

>>3292996
>Top Tier
>Doom Retro

>>3292996
This is a terrible list.

>>3292996
Is the PC port of Doom 64 on that list?
If not, it should be.

>>3293002
If it were it would be in Low-Tier because it only runs Doom 64.

>>3292996
Why is GZDoom two tiers below ZDoom? It's just an OpenGL version of ZDoom.

>>3293000
trips of truth

>>3292996
>ZDoom/GZDoom separate
>Skulltag still being mentioned at all

What.

either bait, or a genuine idiot noob.
poster's name suggests former.

>>3293034

why, because zdaemon is not in there?

>>3293039
>why
because "t."
>because zdaemon is not in there?
didn't notice that.

>>3292996

This is terrible.

I won't talk about Eternity and 3DGE's positions as I don't really know much about them, but Doom Retro has no business being anywhere above low tier, GZDoom should be considered the same thing as ZDoom, Skulltag and Zandronum being in the same tier is laughable, Doomsday doesn't really have anything going for it other than "GRAPHICS!!!" and the no name source ports being considered "equal" to Zandronum seems rather off to me.

Even from a purist perspective, this has issues. Why is Doomsday so high? Why is ZDoom top tier when its gameplay is some of the furthest from the original engine, at least without tweaking?

>>3293047

Oops, *Why is ZDoom god tier

>>3293045
What does t. even mean? I'm not down on these new memes.

>>3293056

I don't blame you. "t." means "signed".

>>3292985
>Man this whole revenant shit and such are so disrespectful towards the original games.

Huh? Doom 2 has revenants.

>>3293064
I couldn't figure out what he meant by this, either.

>>3293056
You can thank /int/ for that part

>>3293071
/int/ and /pol/ memes are the worst. They're like cancers.

>>3292996
>Dosbox

Thats not a source port. Its a dos emulation software. What you really mean is Vanilla.

Anyways

>>3293064
>>3293068

I think he meant an abundance of Revenants, judging by him wanting some wads that were "grounded".

>>3292993
Yes

TNT also has its good share of them as well, hell one of the levels starts the player close to a small room with a Revenant hiding in the corner and a shotgun + box of shells in the middle

>>3293089
Eh, TNT's usage of Revenants wasnt nearly as crazy as Plutonia. TNT was more about hitscanners.

>>3293064
Yeah, it started coming to me that those skeletons in 2 look a bit like the revenants in 4 after posting.
But yeah, the throwable handy revenant is kinda too much. You know what I'm saying? It's fun and all, but, uhh... naw. Maybe not. Ever.

>>3293084
Honestly, I think people who complain about Revenants and Chaingunners are simply players who stubbornly refuse to adjust their playstyle because to them its the maps fault for not going exactly how they wanted it to.

>>3293075
/int/'s memes are just pure shitposting and usually just result in one off posts. /pol/'s memes derail entire fucking threads by ending up forcing people into discussing politics and ruining any form of civilized discussion that could have happened.

>>3293083
>>3293081
these are good tiers

How do you guys feel about, uh, populated e1 techbases? Like the gameplay isn't like e1 at all, it's a lot more frantic.

>>3293149
So just an E1-textured level but with the amount of enemies you'd expect later on? I guess it's okay.

>>3292913
>that picture

My fucking sides

>>3293151
I think it's closer to the traps in E1M9, except over most of the level.

>>3293064
>>3293068
some wads have levels with shit loads of revenants and it kinda sucks dick

>>3293160
Personally, unless its Sunder-tier, Its not really a problem for me at all.

>>3293160
Revenants are fun to kill though

>>3291874
I agree, Metal is easily the weakest, especially that final room. Everyone knows that final room.

>>3293165
They're gay and stupid

>>3293149
i love them. UAC Experiment is one of my favourite wads ever. also the classic episode, double impact, base ganymede, etcetc

>>3293180
Shit taste pleb
Their high damage, low health and homing projectiles make them easily the most patrician Doom enemy. Nothing more satisfying than dodging a cloud of missiles like fucking Goku and subsequently raping their boney face with a SSG blast.

>>3293189
No, Doom 1 enemies are the best, with addition of chaingunners which are ok and hell knights, pain elementals are also gay

archviles are gay too

>>3293089
hmm, maybe it catches you by surprise once (which it should not because you can blatantly see one of its animation frames sticking out past the door) but otherwise a single revenant vs player with shotgun+28 shells should not be a problem. if you only had a pistol, or there were several other enemies in the small room, then there might be grounds for concern

>>3292806
>filename

>>3293189
>muh skill
>muh high technical monster placement

They're shit and overused. Eat a dick.

>>3293203
>>3293209
>I'm shit at Doom
imo Doom 2 fleshed out the bestiary really well, especially with the Skeletons, Mancubi and Hellknights. There was a serious lack of medium-difficulty level enemies in Doom 1, leading to a lot of overuse of the Caco and Baron of Hell in later levels.

>>3290995
what exactly is wrong with brutal doom?

everytime i try to look up why i get message board drama & modders acting like divas

>>3293205
Of course it's manageable since you can bait a punch and beat him to it

Just saying that TNT does love its skeletons a lot by comparison to Doom 2, even if Plutonia loves them even more

>>3293221

It ushered an enormous amount of idiots/children into the Doom community who were drawn in by the iron sights, realistic weapon sounds, high definition spritework, and gratuitous violence

These people now believe Brutal Doom is "the way doom is meant to be played" and will harass pwad authors to make their shit compatible with Brutal Doom, because they refuse to play Doom in any fashion resembling vanilla

>>3293221
it's a mediocre mod that is considered "the way doom was meant to be played" by a huge group of people who haven't played doom any other way

it gets tiring

>>3293221

It's less the mod itself and more the asshole author and the community surrounding the mod, especially how they claim that Brutal Doom is a "better DOOM" and refuse to play without it.

Not to say that there isn't reasons to dislike the mod, but nobody would care that much if the author and fans behaved themselves.

>>3292286
Because the people who make them are terrible artists. That's about all the reason there is.

Blah, making these is so annoying. Lights hanging, flicker due to teleports. Looked over to how Proxyon did it, and I should probably set up several voodoos in conga instead of one.

>>3292034
That's a -really- nice effect.

Does it bring the engine to its knees?

>>3293231
fair enough, i just thought that, for choosing a moment of excess revenantation in TNT, it was an odd choice

>>3293250
not on openly, but I wouldn't be so sure about software

additive sprites tend to be handled more efficiently by the GL renderer

>>3293257
not on software*

autocorrect can fuck off right about now

>>3293221
You got part of it right. It's not just about drama around modders, but also the kind of people Brutal Doom has brought in. There's a reason why mods like HDoom have implemented silly countermeasures mocking the player whenever BD is loaded alongside it.

As for the mod itself? Purely subjective, though these days you have a lot more choice than you did back in 2011. I'd encourage people to look around and find some other neat options.

>>3293249
Looks cool either way.

>>3293237
>>3293239
>>3293240
>>3293261

so it's a combination of nostalgia & E-drama? ok good to know

i get that you shouldn't use brutal doom for everything

and i get people might not like modern style but that's basically what classic style is there for

also complaining about gore in doom seem about as silly as complaining about goofy shit in metal gear

I downloaded Brutal Doom ( I'm 29, cant believe I never played that before, its awesome ), currently doing the Hell on Mars campaign, however I'm having troubles configuring my mouse properly, there is a ton of options and no matter what I do it always feels very floaty and not accurate at all.
any tips ?

Im used to fps otherwise, my mouse has 3 DPI settings and I'm used to the highest, but for this game I really cant get a good feel with it no matter the settings.

I downloaded from this link
http://www.moddb.com/mods/brutal-doom/downloads/brutal-doom-hell-on-earth-starter-pack

>>3293268
i tried to play BD once
a corpse blocked my way
tried jumping, tride crouching, tried shooting, couldn't get past
open console
> quit

also BD plebs won't even consider another gameplay mod unless it has 'muh BD compat'
and then someone rips it off into their BD homonculus

>The Logic of the Archvile
>I talking about his power, a big flame what's run to you, don't make any sense, it's strange for me

Sorry for my bad english

Hi Doomsrulez

>>3293242

What baffles me is how these people can think their work looks even remotely good or fits in the game in any way.

And why are the shittiest artists always the most ambitious? Why do they feel the need to go SO high res that their horrible artistry makes everything look like a middle schooler's shitty portrait for painting class? Why not keep the pixelated look but upscale things so that zombies have the same amount of detail as Doomguy's HUD face or something?

I can see high res sprite packs actually working, but nobody has taken the right approach yet as far as I'm concerned.

>>3293319
stupid people tend to overestimate themselves in the same way smart people underestimate themselves. it's a self awareness thing.

techbase stuff

>>3293360
Looks pretty cool. What engine is this for?

WHY ARE SKELTAL A PAIN IN THE ASS TO FIGHT!?

>>3293367
Because you ain't gud ladm8

>>3293367
You have to attack aggressively.

>>3293367
supershotgun to the face, half circle around a rocket, another shot. that's 1 down. if they're too far away, use rockets, even further away, chaingun snipe

>>3293363
I'm mapping in boom format and testing with gzdoom but I usually do a bugcheck run on prboom with boom complevel. The difference in movement and mouse handling throws me off when playing with prboom though so I don't use it for gameplay testing.

>>3293367
They really aren't. Two SSG shots kill one. Just learn to dodge around the rockets.

>>3293392
Sounds great. Look forward to it.

>>3291819
uhhh

Ok, today's update for the piranha bowl:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/cixw5ebpcvnbinx/BowlOfPiranhas.pk3?dl=0

I made sprites for "overhead throwing", which look a bit awkward, but it's the best I can do with my skills. But I am rather content with the throwing motion itself.
Now the bowl gets thrown always, thanks to >>3292514 who told me that I got it the wrong way.
Issues that still persist are the reappearing bowl when deselecting after throwing it and still no skeletons - but right now I just don't feel like making sprites for them, and they would look like shit anyways. Maybe at some point in the future, but for now I just switched on gibs.
I haven't tested with widescreen, either.

Hey /vr/, have you finished that wad?

>>3293425
Do you want me to?

>>3293401
doomguys face says it all

Blood Geometry has been easy so far. But I have inkling this room is gonna be bane of me.

>>3293425
I'll finish by blowing my wad on your face

>>3293489
I want to play that. Those textures look pretty cool.

>>3293425
No. Have most of the sprites done now. Been doing a a few frames a day... Aside from some decorations and the last boss. Still needs sounds and music.
Guess I could start on some maps.

>>3293501
Map19 of Sunlust.

Done now, surprisingly manageable - although there are roughly 80 monsters left.
