Good news!

How many have submitted anything for 300 minutes of /vr/

>>4182309
Only 3 maps have been submitted so far.

I wanna join in on the speedmap thing but I've done fuck all for mapping. I don't wanna disgrace a /vr/ project with a '94map.

>>4182342
Dude we had all sorts of stupid shit in 200vr, just go for it you dumb dumb.

>>4182320
>>4182309

I wanna join, but my weekend is busy.
I'd definitely have something done next week.

>>4182342
No one is going to expect a Speedmap to have the level of polish of a Skillsaw map, anon. In fact, one of the charming aspects of speedmaps is how raw they feel.

>>4182346
Same here!

>>4182346
Just skip sleep.

scaredy anon from earlier with a query involving the rules:
it's 300 minutes, but are we able to pause the timer in between breaks (like to take a piss) or do we have to keep it going

>>4182342
Make something anyway, my man I'm not expecting them to be perfect.
>>4182346
No worries, I'm probably just gonna extent the cut-off date to the 19th (next Sunday) because of the lack of submissions.

>>4182351
>but are we able to pause the timer in between breaks (like to take a piss)
Of course, 5 hours is a long time.

alright, I'm a little self conscious, but I'm gonna do it anyways starting tomorrow. here's hoping i can whip up something that isn't dogshite for a first attempt.

>>4182063

>>4182361
I believe in you anon

I would love to join, but I'm an absolute beginner at this and I fear just embarrassing myself. Maybe next time. Hopefully.

I should use Reshade again but I don't like how the SSAO darkens the hud.

Fuck it, maybe the 300 minutes challenge will do me some good. I've got a general idea of what I want to do, but I think I'll hold off on paper-planning and mapping until the early hours of the morning. I assume by the rules that we can use official Doom songs without having to link anything? 'Cause I'll probably use something from TNT.

>>4182426
>I assume by the rules that we can use official Doom songs without having to link anything?
You would be correct. Good to see more people interested in the project.

Hey guys, been a long time since i've been back here, any fun new wad that are a must to check out?

Also what has everyone been up to recently?

>>4182454
I really don't get this mod, it's just a giant mishmash of random themes. It seems to be seriously lacking any sort of direction.

>>4182492
high noon drifter and juvenile power fantasy recently came out
they're fun

>>4182496
Welcome to gameplay mods in 2017. Bunch of idiots who grew up with too much control of the game racing to have the most useless bullshit in their mod.

>>4182517
While I have a sneaking suspicion this is S'Arais I do feel like that's a fair criticism of the more recent stuff. HND is alright but fairly bog standard with a lot of cool looking but relatively inconsequential features and JPF is... certainly a mod in the technical sense. Not sure what else there is for 2017 specifically.

>>4182496
Kinsie's ZScript sandbox, ultimately.

>>4182496
Who cares, it's fun

>>4182525
I'd normally say "Then why did he release it?" but at this point I think anything released by a Big Name™ would get some downloads.
>>4182527
I don't personally find it fun, and I've tried. It doesn't really have any kind of intended gameplay, feels more like a mishmash of attempted AI/difficulty changes (done in a very hacky and sometimes unfair way) with some piss-weak weapons.

>>4182529
Well then I guess you'd best get to making a mod that adheres to your strict standards of quality then.

>>4182535
I guess I'll have to. Still doesn't change the janky style of JPF though.

>>4182529
>I'd normally say "Then why did he release it?" but at this point I think anything released by a Big Name™ would get some downloads.

Even if it wasn't released by a big name, I'd say in the short term at least it's interesting look into what the relatively new ZScript can do seeing how barebones the documentation is for it, and what we can learn from them.

>>4182502
Thanks friend, i'll check it out.

>>4182538
ZScript docs when? Honestly it's getting to the point of ridiculousness. It's like the entire ZDoom community expects us to hop into their Discord every time something isn't documented.

There's a piece of map editing software for an obscure game that I
'm trying to get to work, but I downloaded it from github and all of the source code (c# .cs files) is split up. How do I compile it into an executable?

>>4182550
See if you can find a .sln file and open that with Visual Studio, then use the dropdowns to select "Release" on the top bar and build the Solution.

>>4182552
nvm, found an old release version deep on the internet.

the editor is called Weland, it makes M2 maps

>use almost 200 edicts in a 256x256 square room
fug :-DDD

>>4182538
Pretty much this.
JPF and HND are the two opposite spectrums, with HND aiming to be a simple generic weapon replacement and JPF aiming to be more of a feature toybox, but both of them are specifically more down-to-earth examples of what ZScript is capable of.
We already know that ZScript is powerful, both D4D and Hideous Destructor have demonstrated that, but they're also not approachable. Like, at all.

Literally never mapped before in my life but I'll try to submit something

>>4182582
Go man, go!
Just try to make something small and fun if it's literally your first go. Don't make half a map and run out of time.

>>4182603
What if I make a map that has literally half of everything like Wonka's office?

>>4182660
Then you would be making a shit ton of new assets and would probably stop half way through.

>>4182660

>>4182663
>make a map that's half of everything
>stop halfway through
sounds about right.

>>4182696
> how do i not fuck up blending these colors together?
> i know! monocrhome that shit!

>>4182582
I'm pretty sure research into how things work can be done outside map time.

So if you map for an hour or so and think it might be cool to do a lowering platform or teleporter, you can take a break, fool around in a test map and learn what you need to learn, then clock back on and work on your map. I don't think that's against the rules...
I would recommend having a good grasp of doors before starting.

Likewise I don't think playtesting is counted as part of the mapping time, as long as you're purely playtesting, not altering anything.

Good idea might be:

1st half hour: sketch out basic layout
2nd half hour: work out heights and textures
3rd half hour: add in monsters and weapons.

Then take a break, playtest, make sure things work and take notes if they dont. Learn about what didn't work and why. Then come back to it later, do another half hour or hour, expand on your layout or do more detail stuff. fix the things that didn't work.
rinse and repeat until the 5 hours are up or your totally happy with your map, whichever comes first.

>>4182707
I'm colorblind, I'm not even gonna try to make this work

Realistically how long is it going to be before Zandronum supports ZScript?

I ask not because I'm impatient, but because I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to adopt ZScript or just keep decorate and acs hacks for now and not lose zand compat

>>4182710
Playtesting is an integral part of the mapping process, I fail to understand why it wouldn't count towards the 300mins

But again this is just fun project I don't think anyone would care at all much if you did 5 hours or 8, not that they would know anyway

>>4182712
hi kegan you flawed individual

>>4182414
No words huh? I'll give it another go or two before going back to sporradic.

>>4182745

Somebody hates fun.

>>4182414
1. please do not rely on zdoom implicit tagging of backsectors, tag your sectors properly. i could not enter this thing. (set lines 73,118,119,121 to some nonzero tag and sector 14 tag to match)

2. (not a bug, i just liked the view. sector trees, nice)

3. this alcove-concealing middle texture bleeds into the floor. easiest way to fix this is to make the light levels of the sectors on either side of it differ by 1, forcing a visplane split and giving the engine an edge to clip the texture against.

4. the red floor has no lower texture in front, shows up as missing/HOM. lines 39,79,297 need lower textures on the appropriate side.

5. the actual exit has an inexplicable manual door wall in front of it, probably not intentional as you can open the exit and bypass the revenants. (set type of lines 376,378 to zero)

>>4182198
Is that Ranger on the left?

>>4182787
yeah, he's hard to recognise without the permanent grimace

>>4182239

"fun is a buzzword" is some old catchphrase like "turn 360 degrees and walk away", stop replying to it

go ahead and use it until it gives out and people on Twitter start using it ironically

>>4182805
put me in the screenshot

>>4182719
nvm found my answer

another question:
is there anything that strictly can only be done in zscript, and not just done much easier?

>>4182786
>as you can open the exit and bypass the revenants
sorry this is wrong, it's a lowering wall and the button does need to be pressed. but then the ceiling can come down afterwards, either by the player pressing the 'use' key at the wrong moment or even by a monster, so the door actions should still be removed.

ITYM greyscale. monochrome is black and white and a lot of dithering.

What are some unique or uncommon level themes you'd like to see more of?

>>4182896
A mall, you go into stores to find other weapons and health items

>>4182896
Dark abandoned derelict urban settings.

Old projects and apartment buildings, old factories and warehouses.
Preferably with a texture set to really sell it, darker and more muted colors.

>>4182930
You should probably check out the Russian scene if you haven't already. I understand they and Slavs in general have a thing for making gritty urban levels, not just in wider vidya but in the Doom community too.

>>4182942
Seconding that. I don't remember the name of it, but I know there's a map made by some Russian mappers that's just a huge exploration map set in a muted snowy middle-of-nowhere urban setting. Don't remember if it had a bunch of enemies or not though.

>>4182896
celestial.

>>4182541
Never, Graf is a huge faggot.

>>4182942
I know that Lainos does that, I am *so* in love with his mapping style (I even sent him fanmail once), but the issue is that he progressively gets into more and more linedefs and detailing, and it'll only run so well on my shitcan laptop, I haven't been able to play some of his latest works at all.

>>4182710
I really appreciate this, a lot of my time's been spent looking up how to do stuff.

Just discovered that there are somewhat fixed versions of Plutonia and TNT but they are rare as fuck and the patches somebody made to be fixed like them only work on 32bit. A fucking fixed TNT is going to be my white whale, I know it.

>>4182309
I've only just found out about it, but I'll try and knock something out for it.

>>4182541
>ZScript docs when?
https://zdoom.org/wiki/ZScript

>>4183006
they're wads. data. not executable. they don't have cpu word size issues.

>>4183017
The patch itself is what doesn't work on 64Bit systems, not the wads.

>>4183023
hmm, okay, executable patch files, i remember there used to be such to turn your doom2 v1.666 into v1.9 and so on. not heard of one for finaldoom though.

>>4183025
>>4183006
You could seriously fix them yourself.
What is it, one error in Map 31 TNT where the yellow key is tagged to only appear in multiplayer?

>>4183039
That's the one, yepyep.

>>4183045
Yeah, you could seriously open TNT.wad with Doombuilder, select the yellow key in the throneroom, then set it's tag to appear in single player difficulties. Then save and exit. Make a copy first I guess.

There, your .wad is fixed.
Granted, this might make it incompatible for if you play in multiplayer, but if you want to do that, just pick the original .wad since it has the key flagged for multiplayer already.

>>4183046
Sounds easy enough, I think I'll just do that, thanks a bunch

Going to make a map for 300 mins

what kind of theme should my level be?

>>4183049
Underwater base.

>Start planning out and begin creating my map
>Hour and a half has passed and I'm still outlining the map and it dawns on me just how long it'll take to finish
I uh... Probably got too ambitious here. I'm gonna go ahead and save that one for another time and start over.

>>4183039
presumably it does more than that? i don't know i'm not the guy who wants it, i prefer my iwads to be the ones that the demos get recorded on.

>>4183057
replying to myself. maybe it's this?

https://doomwiki.org/wiki/TNT.WAD
>A slightly different, and rarer, version is found on some, but not all, id Anthology discs as well as the Macintosh and GOG.com versions of Final Doom. This version does not have the yellow keycard bug, and has a few changes in MAP10. Unfortunately, there is no revision change between both versions so it is also called v1.9.

https://doomwiki.org/wiki/PLUTONIA.WAD
>A slightly different, and rarer, version is found on some, but not all, id Anthology discs as well as the Macintosh and GOG.com versions of Final Doom. This version adds the missing deathmatch starts to MAP12 and MAP23. Unfortunately, there is no revision change between both versions so it is also called v1.9.

>>4183049
Basement and steam tunnels of some large commercial building.

>>4183057
That's basically what the fix does, at least the real important part.

>gameplay demos
Unless you're recording those demos through the original .exe, does it really matter?

>>4183060
>Unless you're recording those demos through the original .exe, does it really matter?
yes. demos go out of sync if played back on a different version of the wad from which it was recorded on. i don't want to start watching the latest 30-map plutonia UV-max only to have it go out of sync halfway through.

>>4183062
Then keep a spare original .wad to watch demos with then?

>>4183014
A "Getting started with ZScript" would be grand for an intro.

>>4183063
i'd rather just have the one copy, thanks. why are you so prostate-perturbed that some anonymous poster on a taiwanese tranny fancier website's only copy of tnt.wad doesn't have a yellow key on map31?

Are custom textures allowed for 300 minutes of /vr/? I kind of want to try making a techbase with Chasm: The Rift textures.

>>4183067
I beg your pardon? Are you not the same poster who asked for a fixed version of the .wad?
Does it come off as aggressive?

>>4183069
I think that would stand out way too much from the other maps.

>>4183059
Those versions are indeed what I am after, and if it's true they're on GOG then fuck it, I'll buy that shit again.

>The yellow key is accidentally flagged as multiplayer-only and hence does not appear in single player. However, players have found a couple of interesting, albeit challenging, ways to complete the level without the yellow key, involving hitting the switch on the right throne from its edge above, or wedging the player through the key-color bars in the same room to hit the switches therein. The unofficial Doom Patcher utility (Doomgate patching utility) can also fix this issue by modifying the IWAD. A walkthrough without the yellow key is available on YouTube.

Apparently this fixes it

Speaking of Lainos earlier, I actually went through Urutsoki: Inferno Road

It's definitely got his style, with the black overcast sky and the dark grays and greens, though it wasn't as overly detailed as some of his other works (meaning it won't be a slideshow on my PC), and wasn't as long either (5L1C, Sonar, Doxylamine Moon and Deneb Colony were all real big and drawn out adventures).
Still a looker though.

>>4183151
Monsters teleport in silently in this level, which makes for some effective ambushes, the starting area has imps teleport in quietly to start grabbing at you each time you pick something from the red lights. You don't even realize what's happening at first.

>>4183154
I always love Lainos' texturing choices.

>>4183159
Never figured out how to get down there, there's some armor in one corner that would have been helpful.

Also the music is kind of unsettling and disgusting, I really like it.

/doom/ how do I set up a server with all the mingames and Cyberrun shit y'all used to host? Thems were good times and I would like to host some more good times.

Blurgh, soon done with this part of the map.

>>4183159
technology hell. a disturbing landscape of organic curves yet everything made from metal and wires (along with blood and lava). sf2012 map34 was a similar thing.

>>4183236
pleasingly compact.

>>4183243
Feels a bit Tom-Hall-ish, 'No space gets wasted'

>>4182896
i haven't seen a hell mission map for a while.

these are maps where you start in some futuristic techbase that's been invaded, and you can't leave without a key or something that requires a trip to hell to fetch. UAC_DEAD is a good example, as is Outpost 21 and map07 of cchest2 for something a bit more recent.

>>4183261
That sounds like a neat little idea. Might do something like that for my 300 min map.

>>4183271
hmm well, i'm not telling you not to, but it needs to be a large map to work properly, or the sense of a mission to hell and back is lost, so i don't think it'd be something that could be done in 300 minutes

>>4182896
A colorfull japanese city, like it came out of Jet Set Radio or Splatoon.

>>4182723
Playtesting wouldn't add 3 hours on, more like 3 minutes every few hours.
A quick playtest to make sure all the doors and triggers work and that things are somewhat balanced shouldn't be a problem, especially important for people new to mapping. It is an important part of level design, but it is not level design in itself - just useful feedback for future tweaks

>>4183053
thats not that bad, 1 1/2 hours for the format would probably still be finish-able in 5. Sometimes the format/layout can take quite a while.

>>4183302
It's all good. Probably just gonna stick with a tech base anyway.

>>4183236
Is this for 300mins?

>>4183313
No. Just a standalone map I am working on.

I like to think that the arachnotrons in D64 are the classic ones, after they hit puberty, where they lose their arms, but grow extra legs and when they become full adults, they get 8 legs to become actual spiders.

>>4183319
Someone should mod the pain elementals to be more like their D64 versions in that the explosions of any failed lost soul spawns actually hurt.

>>4183331
why do that when you can just give a random chance for the PE to spit a fireball in your face if you're too close?

this is what I do, half chance it spits a fatso fireball at you (at close range very hard to avoid)

whats more it still has +Notarget, so it can do this to monsters and they will not fight back

>>4183331
why do you want to remove the one way to make pain elementals not annoying?

>>4183338
Because Doom 64 did?

>>4183342
okay well fair enough but please reduce the health of a lost soul to like 40 to compensate

Wait is there really only one vanilla skybox in Doom 2? I'm trying to add a different one in Doom Builder but I'm only finding one

>>4183348
i think you've misunderstood how skies work, sky is indicated by using the flat F_SKY1 and the engine handles it specially, drawing the sky (either SKY1/2/3 depending on map number, a texture, not a flat) in the gaps

>Spend an hour working on one room and end up scraping half of it while what's left hardly works with the rest of the map
>What I worked on wasn't even vital to gameplay and I don't even know where to go with the rest of the room
>Wasted half of my time already and I'm not even halfway done with the map
Fuck it, I'm scrapping this one. This is what I get for winging it without a clear goal or vision in mind. I'll just try again tomorrow, I think I need to make something that's purely for gameplay and not about looks and themes.

>>4183348
There's 3. RSKY1, RSKY2, and RSKY3. RSKY1 is used in earlier maps and RSKY3 in later ones, but they're all set to F_SKY1 in doombuilder.

>>4183352
>>4183358
So is there any way to change it from Doom Builder itself?

>>4183365
Nope, you gotta go into slade and work it out. If you want the hell sky from doom 2 for example, you open up doom 2 in slade and you look for a file called RSKY3. Copy it into your map and rename it RSKY1 and it should hopefully appear.

>>4183365
you can mess about with sky transfer linedefs (type 271,272) or for zdoom i think you can set a different sky texture in mapinfo (someone else will have to confirm this, i don't do zdoom)

>>4183353
>I need to make something that's purely for gameplay and not about looks and themes.
thats what speed mapping's all about. dont worry about looks until you find yourself with a fully functioning map with an exit and monsters and guns

>>4183389
Yeah, I was just stuck in my usual mapping mindset of taking things one sector at a time and adding in "hey this would be cool" details. I need to go more minimal with details until I get the core level worked out.

>>4183386
Yeah, you can set skybox in mapinfo, but that only works for ZDoom-derived ports.

>What I was trying to do with the donut linedef doesn't work as the tagged lowering sector doesn't change texture
RIP my water draining effect and my 300min map, lower floor and change texture isn't vanilla

>>4183398
It isn't? I think I've seen it happen in vanilla maps, although I may be confusing Doom with Hexen.

>>4183398
the pillar lowers and doesn't change texture. the moat around the pillar rises, and changes texture at the end of the movement.

they're hard to get right, they have all these restrictions on which way the lines should face and whether they're two sided or not and which one is the lowest numbered one can be significant. they weren't very robustly programmed.

>>4183398
lower and change is vanilla, but i think only exists as a walk trigger

>>4183406
This is what I was trying to do.
>>4183408
Oh right yeah, it's vanilla but not as a single use switch, for some strange reason. guess I'll have to make them pressure plates, oh well.

>>4183417

>>4183408
>>4183417
And I just remembered why it won't work, I can't tell the already-lowered floors not to lower further on the next draining switch, I could do that with the donut linedef action as it doesn't read entire sectors, damn.

>>4183417
It was a nice attempt at least, I can appreciate the effort. It reminded me of some of Marathon 2's maps.

>>4183457
>>4183460
i was just saying. i'm just guessing it's likely some map may refer to politics somehow. don't know why you have to jump down my throat.

>>4183462
oh you're trying to lower the floor in multiple stages. hmm

>>4183474
Yeah, the idea was 3 switches around the map that you could hit in any order you like and lower the water, making reaching the other switches more difficult. Hitting all 3 switches grants access to the exit.

if that counts as "docs", i'll eat my hat

>>4183530
Well it's a new mod
Also it has Fidget Spinners instead of a Chainsaw

And in the second half of a video he laments how he did'nt pay attention to the modding scene this week, so he did just because it was somethin that immediately caught his eye.
He doesn't really seem too happy to cover this mod

>>4183543
He could have covered something like Lilith, or just built up a collection of stuff he's not covered yet.

It's a pretty bad idea for somebody who does this shit as a job to be doing it all at last minute every week.

>>4183551

As someone who works on something similar, a weekly process is painful to do.
I think bi-weekly would be better for Icarus. A week is short. Too short to really play through these, get information on how they all work, record footage, edit them together, etc.

>>4183551
Just from his comment that he "did'nt watch the modding scene too closely this week" it seems that he was probably occupied by something, so he just this simple review

>>4183559
Doing them in the same week you release them is usually begging for shit to go wrong, not to mention burning yourself out really quickly.

>>4182827
>>4182786
lovely.

1: Huh. should be working proper, it did when I used it, but I'll keep it in mind.

2: sector trees are fun, and the outdoor rock textures/zimmer textures are EXCELLENT for this. Zimmer7 can also be used like "mold" or "rotten flesh" in my book.

I think I'm going to make another 300 minutes map, I already have most of the idea planned out.

What about the layout itself?

3: somewhat aware of this, the grates in the E2M8 were fixed in the same manner.

4: whoops

5: also oops but not a significant issue when the door can be re-opened. NONETHELESS...

>Unrelated: Why the hell does BROOTLE DOOG keep getting media attention while other gems, like Durla, get nothing? That should of been the one for the Unmaker weapon, not Sgt. Dork
It's what I call the media spiral. Once something becomes [in]famous, it comes up first in searches and casual research. As a result, it becomes more likely to be found in reports and lazy journalism, so it stays or becomes more [in]famous.

>>4183598
Like that fucking "running simulator" or "day one DLC" meme?

That's kinda shit. Give some other things the attention. Fuckers.

>>4183606
Back from the topic at hand off from Evolve's misfortunes:

My next 300 minutes map is NOT going to have a layout, as it's more just a "scenery porn" map. "Gentrosenph" is a fleshy hell theme, naturally many are not going to like what I'm going to do with it, then.

>>4182582
Alright time is up I guess. For the 300 Minutes of /vr/ thing, map name Bay 54, author name Red. I hope it works and isn't too shit.

https://www.mediafire.com/file/9749pej34j2725e/Bay54.wad

>>4183598
>>4183590
I also think it has to do with the fact that BD is too popular to the point it has its own subcutlure, which kind of devides it from other mods, if not Doom mods and the series in general.

And at the same time, Doom modding in itself is too niche, even while attached to a very popular series, since most "gamers" don't explore the medium.

Is talk of Brutal Doom retro?
Because v21 is looking badass.

>>4183606

>>4183645
>S'Ar here.
Thanks, that was really relevant to the post.

>>4183652
Well, that was a short and simple treat. You seem to know what you're doing. The only argument I can add is that the exit room could of trimmed a couple of the twitching corpses in exchange for a little bit more geometry/architecture to enhance the aforementioned existing twitching bodies, and the Key Door lacks Key Indicators.

Certainly a step up from my first map.

>>4183662

Thanks anons! Will keep it all in mind.

>>4183662
These are my thoughts on what I would of put there.

HORF IM FUKKEN RETARDED AND CUT OFF MY OWN COMMENTATION.

"lava1/rock05/slime09" cracks is what was there.

>>4183681
>>4183675

Oh. You could of also potentially swapped the right-sides for actually twitching corpses or just mixed twitches in with the statics. This gives more visual flair and/or also has both racks facing the player, which is neat.

Use of decoration things in creative flavor is always nice, but try not to have long strings of the same single decoration and mix in some others with other possible flair.

>>4183675
>>4183681
>>4183685
Fuck off, you of all people shouldn't be giving mapping advice.

>>4183685
Another REALLY USEFUL trick for Thing Decorations is the age old "receed it into the floor with untextured sides so the player doesn't see it."

I did this with my Fireblu "universal stillpoint rods" map for Constriction.

>>4183728
replace aforementioned sky file
select befitting map slot

>>4183734
>replace aforementioned sky file
please do not do this for a community project

What's the steepest angled wall a player can run up in Quake? Normally, I mean, not the 'hold W and slowly, slowly make your way to the top' method.

>>4183693
>Another REALLY USEFUL trick for Thing Decorations is the age old "receed it into the floor with untextured sides so the player doesn't see it."
note this only works in engines that have proper over/under, otherwise the torches in the floor still block you because they're infinitely tall

>>4183590
>1: Huh. should be working proper, it did when I used it, but I'll keep it in mind.
like i said it will behave "correctly" only in zdoom/gzdoom, it won't work in other engines

>>4182896
Swamp map with blues music.

>>4183773
Ah, yes. this. I forgot to mention that.
It's still fine as long as the player and monsters dont need to be in it's area in said sourceports

>>4183614
And here's just some basic visual/architecture concepting beforehand. Those are supposed to be like "ribs" of some descriptor, but I'll need to find a better texture.

>>4183631
it's a bit of a grey area isn't it? the game itself is from 1993 so clearly within the rules, but the mod, and pretty much every other gzdoom mod discussed here, is less than 10 years old. same with most maps, bar the classics (memento mori, hell revealed etc.) were all made later than the /vr/ cutoff.

>>4183309
Hell yes.

>>4183792

I figure it's the same grey area that allows for /rhg/ to exist.
It's really quite wonderful to see the creativity people can do with these old games.

>>4183787
oh yeah it's fine if it's just decorative and the player can't reach the area. here's some torches in the floor in pl2-27

>>4183809
That looks like a secret.

>>4183716
>>4183717
I get that it's vanilla, but that means I can't use MAPINFO or fog?

>>4183818
>>4183716
FOG and Mapinfo are part of later sourceports, so no.

>>4183818
No. There's no fog in vanilla and MAPINFO is a zdoom thing.

>>4183823
mapinfo is a hexen thing
but yeah, not vanilla doom

>>4183812
it's not. there is a sound tunnel at the back leading to the map's collection of teleporter holding areas, though.

>>4183818
you think vanilla means zdoom with no mods, don't you. blergh

Was kinda bored, so i grabbed some screenshot and did this, for fun.

>>4183829
Oh, so that's what I'm seeing.

>>4183830
it's a bit pants mate

>>4183829
>you think vanilla means zdoom with no mods, don't you. blergh
the term for that is "zvanilla", iirc
zdoom vanilla is too far off from actual vanilla

>>4183832
yeah that little bright spot, it's probably a bug. PL2 has quite a few minor issues that were never resolved. for example that particular map has a few monster teleporters that don't work.

>>4183835
I know, i was bored, so if anything, it's more stinky used underwear.

>>4183841
i thought it was "modless"
"zvanilla" just sounds daft to me

>>4183848
given that zdoom itself modifies behavior quite a bit, modless is a bit of a misnomer

>>4183830

Agitating skeleton looks like he's wearing a funny hat.

yes, the letters can be collected in any order and the messages work properly, the only fucky part is where the messages show up due to message size/location and \n's newline size varying between engines and the player's own config

>>4183854

>>4183857

>>4183878
Well whatever.

>>4183861
>>4183864
Thanks. No idea what the point of it was because it uses a ridiculous number of entities (an individual trigger for each possible combination of letters, and almost a hundred [!!!] spike shooters, which might be able to be simplified but I never want to look at spike shooters again), but if nothing else it's fun to see just what you can do with map hacks alone. It runs in fucking ezquake (pic related) if for some reason you use ezquake to play custom singleplayer maps, albeit with the message placement screwy (which could probably be solved with a custom config specifying message size but FUCK IT); put much more into the map though and it'll probably hit the 600-edict limit- QS had it raised to 8192 by default so that's nice.

>>4182198

Previous /arena/ thread on VG has the link and the entire comic

>>>>/vg/184989108

>>4183858
Are these custom models for the letters?

Do any of you know of royalty-free 80s sounding music I could use in my WAD? Not looking for synthwave specifically, mostly for cheesy 80s stuff.

Does the comic mention Ranger entering the slipgate with a machinegun, when he actually had a shotty?

Maybe, i'm getting this from Marphy Black on twitter, but it feels like they're doing some accidental retcons in this game.

>>4183898
>marphy black
who?

also which comic

>>4183894
Func_walls that are shaped like letters which are then teleported into the gameplay area using more hacks from the code-monkeys at func_msgboard (read: Preach).

Note that at this point editing anything relating to the letter brush models, the triggers or especially the various walls that block the spike shooters is pretty much impossible because everything fucking overlaps everything else and the only way I got anything done was hiding the entire previous letter-set when working on the next one.

>>4183898
Comic doesn't mention it but it does show it, with his modern appearance and the Quake Champs machine gun, no shotty in sight. The Enforcers and Grunts in the background of one of the panels are also holding MGs, and the Shamblers in another page aren't fuzzy (despite the in-game Shambler Head cosmetic item being properly yeti-skinned).

Also, Ranger's flashbacks make him look just like BJ Blazkowicz.

So I think I've finished up all of the codestuff that's left for a new High Noon Drifter release.
I'd just wanted to do some fixes, patches, and include in some suggestions and address some critiques, but then an acquaintance sent me code for a cool quickdraw thing and a friend asked me to add Heretic support. So I did. And Chex Quest support, because it took five minutes.

Build: https://www.dropbox.com/s/58zbdfzxs56qf61/HighNoonDrifter-v1.1_prerelease.pk3?dl=1
Changelog: https://pastebin.com/CkgsZtEJ

Give or take some minor bits of polish and/or critical bugfixes/balance adjustments, this should be pretty close to the release build.
Please enjoy. Let me know if you have any complaints, suggestions, or whatever, or if anything breaks horribly.

well now, that's interesting. now how in the world did you manage to do this without replacing monsters?

>>4184025

Using ZScript, you can override certain "points" in an actor's lifespan. For example, BeginPlay is a ZScript override that takes place before the actor is spawned and before it's able to set all of its flags and such.
So when a bulletpuff spawns (via +PUFFONACTOR), I can use BeginPlay to check and see how close it is to the player, and then either set +EXTREMEDEATH or +NOEXTREMEDEATH depending on whether they're close or further away.
Thus, when the actor appears as normal (i.e., hitting a monster) it can gib them.

>>4184035
fascinating, thanks
zscript really allows for a lot

Wow, that looks awful. This is Sunder, right?

>>4184540

Do it, mate.
Just keep in mind the limitations.

>>4184493
Goddamn it. Hopefully it's an easy fix.

What? You can do it in DECORATE with +HITTRACER and A_DamageTracer, if the puff is close enough to the player, set the +EXTREMEDEATH flag before dealing damage.

Doesn't seem like it. Can't just magically convert a map from UMDF to vanilla. Your options are 1. Try and remake it in Doom format, or 2. take your loss and try your hand at a new map. Real sorry about the inconvenience but rules are rules.

Bother me, sarais for map requests.

I'll do them as I'm working on Gentrosenph >>4183787

post cute doom!

I wonder if they ever got the hint that the cacodemon was always such a inadvertently cute design.

Albums to play Quake and Doom to:

This is guaranteed to give you some good, classic FPS vibes.

Hey fuck you, Quake 1 on nightmare with the Quake 3 OST was some damn good HUH if I've ever found any

>>4184643
>Quake 1
>playing on Nightmare when you know it breaks shit and makes fights easier
Don't you HUUH at me like that, young man.

>>4184448
Here's the Chocolate Doom compatible version.

I like nightmare mode because it makes me feel overwhelmed.

>>4184650
How does it make you feel overwhelmed, Ogre grenades? It doesn't change enemy or item count/placement compared to Hard.

>>4184659
okay, fine, I'll just play hard. Way to kill it fucker

>>4184662
rude, dude

>>4184663
getting the thing you like shit all over by some random dude doesn't feel great
big surprise

>>4184668
>shit all over
he was asking you a question, dude

>>4184668

He was just asking how it made you feel overwhelmed. It was just a question, that's all.

>>4184640
I actually did this, using the NIN album "things falling apart".

A lot of old CD games were cool in that they would play whatever audio CD you had in the drive.

>>4184670
>>4184671
I see the facts of the situation, that nightmare is objectively worse than hard. I now agree.
My problem is now that something I used to like is being kinda ruined to me. I like nightmare because it felt like you were accessing a part of the game thats tucked away, like its the base game but a million times harder. I didnt know hard was a better equivalent and when I learned how to circle strafe enemies from nightmare mode, learned how to BHOP, all that just from wanting to beat Q1 on nightmare as a kid, then somebodys telling me that the game is worse than hard on that mode and it sucks to be shot down.

>>4184284
You'll pick a set of sky textures too, right? Even if just from like Final Doom or Doom 1 or whatever. Just so it's different.

The Doom 2 skies bore me a lot.

>>4183006
You can actually get these fixed versions off the gog release. Not rare anymore

>>4184635
>slipknot

disappointing

>>4184650
IMO, Nightmare actually makes quake easier.

>>4184668
I never picked up on how much tankjr resembled a mancubus. those bumps and crannies on his face really give off a doom monster design vibe.

>>4184640
I always felt The Fragile worked pretty well with Doom and Quake. Tracks were generally more atmospheric compared to your typical official NIN album

>Out of all possible mods Icarus decides to review the unfunny Crash Bandicoot meme shitpost mod

>>4184727
That's because it is easier, isn't it? Something about the AI becoming dumber on nightmare mode or something IIRC, so hard mode was the truly hardest difficulty. Or am I just totally wrong and falsely remembering things?

>>4184760
At this point it really does seem like he's gone through nearly the entire backlog of notable-but-also-normie-friendly mods and is just looking for a way to keep his channel making vids.

>>4182198
Doom babbies. What an awful thread filled with with untold amounts of clueless retards.

For the 300 minute challenge, if I make an open-air hell themed map will I be allowed to change the sky texture or do I just have to deal with using the default SKY1? Was thinking of doing a Mt. Erebus inspired map and just wanted to know in advance.

>>4184774
Shut the fuck up

>>4184635
>doom babby """taste"""
jesus. it's AIDS even when it comes to music.

What is it about games with low resolution textures and simple geometry that makes them so goddamned cozy? I feel like wrapping myself up in a warm blanket every time I boot up Quake or Half-Life.

>with with

or course he is, holy shit.

lol what a retard

>>4184781
Could be because your brain can easily process that stuff, it also helps there's good art direction in those games, adding to that cozy look you're talking about.

Fuck off doom babbies.

>>4184776
put it in the applicable map slot.

>>4183858
>still fiddling with this out of the boredom that comes with "I got this stupid hacky shit working, now what do I do"
>remember Quake has fiddly ramp jumping physics
>does it do what I want it to do?
>sure as shit it does, make a quarter pipe and jump up it and you'll skyrocket upwards; run at it normally and you won't get much higher than the lip

Kickflip Quake may be long, long dead, but I bet this shit could be made into a full map.

>>4183858
So HUH I am

>>4184820
I mean I can put it as map21 to use the SKY3 texture, but wouldn't that just leave a big gap in levels if there aren't enough maps submitted? Or is there a way for the project manager to go from, for instance, map14 to map21 without a gap in levels as if they were listed one after the other?

>>4184575
Can't he just prefab the entire map?

>>4183792
As far as I'm aware any mod, remake or remaster of a /vr/-eligible title is also allowed. This is why GBA is brought up all the time despite technically not being allowed - its library is full of SNES remakes so comparisons are inevitable.

>>4184831

I don't know.

why would i get visplane overflows in an area that i didn't even alter? i've changed the rest of the map heavily, but this one area didn't change and now im getting overflows

>>4184856
Lol I dunno shit about visplanes.

Does anyone have the gif of the revenant sprite doing this?

>>4184860
got you covered
