I think this should of been just a boom map because the only gzdoom tricks I seen was just the colored lighting which I thought was unnecessary. The biggest mistake was you can't even exit the map. A imp was stuck near the archvile trap, hom in near the yellow door, and I didn't really like the texture work or the detailing espcially the nukage room. I didn't find any secrets but to be fair I wasn't really looking for them. The lighting in some spots was good and I thought my pic here was funny.
Overall, I didn't like it and will not be keeping it, but it had a few bright spots in it so keep working anon.

Based on the naming im going to guess this was Zdoom's way, in the early days, of extending DeHacked functionality. They borrowed some of the format from the EDGE sourceport (which I was a fan of) in the early 00's.

Decorate, allowing you to add more decorations to spruce up maps. Which probably expanded quickly into adding new monsters. Eventually they would diverge into expanding the native functions like "spit a shotgun blast of 3 pellets and play the shotgun sound" into more proper flexible stuff. These are all still there for compatibility with older wads.

ACS has been available for as long as there was Hexen support I believe. A rather crude way to do scripting but effective. ZScript is new and undocumented (like a mexican) but is alot more painless than using ACS. If you know how to use it that is.

So, you start out with 83HP, for whatever reason.
At first look, the first two maps as well as MAP23 look like maps made by S'Arais.
A few sounds are replaced, such as the teleporter noise and a menu noise.
MAP23 is interesting, because it has an area with... I don't know what the fuck these things are (check upcoming screenshots). And in the same area, it says "You just broke your leg!"
So far, nothing of too much interest other than the first two maps, I suppose.

Im trying to figure out a way to make the BFGSpray hit enemies only 1 time. Also a way to make targets soak up a full shotgun blast. A long time ago a theory about this was posted but I lost track of it.

To handle the shotgun blasts im thinking of giving all relevant monsters a shotgun pellets pain state that upon the first time they're hit gives them a counter saying they've been hit, makes them invincible or otherwise heals the avg damage they'd take from a shotgun pellets. Then gives them another counter tallying how many times they're being hit with shotgun pellets (since it all happens at once the effect wears off after the next 2 tics and they become vulnerable to shotguns again).
> Somewhere in the middle of the painstate they take a Single Hit for damage multiplied by the number of pellets they got hit by, which may in fact splatter them.

The solution posted for the BFG is something like using A_RadiusGive to hand all monsters a token saying they've been BFG sprayed, but I dont know how to make a monster suddenly get zapped by that unless they were constantly at every frame checking to see if they had a token.
> some idea pops up in my mind about making the spray really weak, like 1 point of damage, so that they enter their painstate and then check for the token... and if the token is there they take a merry christmas amount of sparkly damage.

Overall ideas here are to prevent shotguns from being like railguns, and make it easier for shotguns to gib weak enemies. While for the BFG making it less useful against bosses and more of an equal opportunity killer so that you have a better reason to use the Plasma Gun (or actually hit your boss with the BFG projectile, which would make up the rest of the weight of the damage lost against them)

Also im looking for a way to do Regeneration for the player but on a limited basis. Like when it comes to the poison headcrabs from HL2.

I think it would be a good way to imagine the player's armor has a medikit dispensor in their suit that helps repair some of the damage every time they're injured. Kinda like damage reduction but if they get torn the hell out of they will die quickly. So getting hit with an attack gives you a certain number of counters based on the amount of damage or damage dice it causes. And thats how much the suit will repair health loss for you... but it takes a little while before it will do it.

Also sorta like D&D 4th edition using the healing surges mechanic... getting a Medikit could just give you healing tokens so that it enables this Regeneration mechanic to start recovering lost health. Preventing you from getting instant healing from anything short of a soulsphere.

Im guessing this may have to use some kind of Zscript since you'd have to be tracking something global and applying the changes to a specific object (the player). No idea how to go about Zscripting though.

You have to understand that there simply were NO 3D brawlers in 1995 (when Witchhaven was released). Back then, this was innovative and unique.

3D brawlers/hack and slash action games only became a thing in 2000s - Dynasty Warriors 2 came out in 2000, Blood Omen 2 in 2002, and new Ninja Gaiden in 2004. By 1995 standards, this was the best melee gameplay one could have.

Also, from what I remember from Witchaven, its combat is unfair in that you need to swing prior to landing a hit with your weapon, while the enemies can hit you (almost?) immediately - certainly, without a second of delay.

Moreover, the weapon durability is treated like ammo count in this game, meaning, that the hit that doesn't connect to anything, still wastes a durability point. That's just, like, retarded.

I don't give a fuck if you call them hack'n'slash or 3D beatemups or brawlers or whatever, but they DO need some kind of a name. I've seen people try to discuss this kind of games and have to call them 'action games' which is laughably broad. "Action game" can describe anything from Stalker, through Gradius to Marvel vs Capcom.

Like it or not, games like Ninja Gaiden, Devil May Cry, God of War Bayonetta, Batman: Arkham games (well, their combat parts) and Dark Souls DO share a genre . They are all different in the same way ARMA is a shooter (tactical shooter) and Doom is a shooter (arcade shooter) but they're both shooters.

These games share mechanics, like a dodge roll, blocking, camera lock-on, special moves, subweapons for ranged harassment, some manner of combos or attack chains...

(I will concede that "Warriors" games probably don't belong in that genre, whatever it is called, they're too different.)

We need a name for this genre so we can discuss their similarities and differences. It's going to be discuss WHY some people prefer Dark Souls and why other prefer DMC, and how they use relatively similar mechanics to offer completely different experiences - if we can't even name the genre they're in.

And this is a big deal because I haven't seen ANYONE agree what to call these games. I've seen names specifically for the specific subgenres - 'spectacle fighter' and 'button masher' and 'character action' but none of them for the wide genre itself.

I think it's weird you put Dark Souls in the same category, most people would call that an action RPG. Would you put Ocarina of Time in that category too, with its dodges, blocking, camera lockon, special moves, and multiple weapons?

But if you're just saying "third person combat games with platforming," we've had "action-adventure" for a long while. This is also starting to get outside the bounds of an FPS thread, and you might as well make a topic about it.

Plus, both of these are basically classic beatemups with 3D graphics. They don't really do anything that wouldn't be possible in 2D. Witchhaven, for all it's faults, allowed player to turn and move in every direction, fully utilizing the 3D environment.
And that wouldn't be done WELL until Ocarina of Time in 1998 and it's lock-on melee combat. Oh how surprising, not soon after Ocarina we get a ton of games like Soul Reaver that utilize similar style of combat...
>>4659407
Actually Zeno Clash is /vr/-ish. See, the team who made Zeno Clash previously made Batman Doom. And considering that Batman Doom has pretty strong emphasis on melee combat by Doom standards (several melee weapons, and final bossfight with Bane is melee-only) it's not crazy to say that they were toying with similar ideas in Batman Doom that would eventually get used in Zeno Clash.

Well, Dark Souls is an action RPG for sure, but the thing with action RPG is that they are part RPG, part SOME kind of an action game. Fallout 4 is an action RPG that takes its action elements from first person shooters - while Dark Souls is an action RPG that takes its action elements from that genre, whatchamacallit.

And I specifically mean the third person games with lock-on, blocking/dodging and melee combat.

But let's drop the topic, it's outside not just the FPS thread - but as this genre really emerged in post-retro times it's also outside of /vr/ bounds. And let's not kid ourselves, noone on /v/ will be interested in discussing this when you can yell memes instead.

Fighting games are one of the most complex and deep videogame genres. I doubt a designer who specializes in these would make a game as shallow and barebone as CoD.

If anything, it'd be a weird game like a well-made Daikatana, filled with movement tech, hidden tricks and mechanics, and a lot of complexity that might be unnecessary.

I'd probably expect each weapon to have at least two different altfires, and several different uses, and probably heavy emphasis on multiplayer/competitive gameplay.

None of those games are hack and slash though. All of those are action games, the closest they got to RPG elements in them is (mostly linear) progression. Dark Souls is the closest, but then again it much more action than RPG (level 1 runs being completely possible if you know what you are doing).

"Hack and Slash" term comes from tabletop RPG campaigns where story was a simple premise to get party into an action scenario. Campaigns that rid of all the interactive bits in favour of mechanics and tactical action.
Games like Diablo, Dark Stone, Revenant, Sacred, Dungeon Siege and Titan Quest are Hack'n'Slash games.

Around 2004 when blogging became new journalism inept Blogo-journos began using the term for everything where the hero swings a sword , even for beat'em'ups like Golden Axe. The whole shit started with Devil May Cry 1 and 2 reviews because they saw protag swinging a big sword and thought that "hey, the name kinda fits", and could not be bothered to look at the box that read "Stylish Action game".

Wikipedia is not a reliable source onto this due to the circular causation - They put games into H'n'S genre because people say so, and people say so because Wikipedia puts them there, ignoring the actual genre definitions on that same site

>And this is a big deal because I haven't seen ANYONE agree what to call these games. I've seen names specifically for the specific subgenres - 'spectacle fighter' and 'button masher' and 'character action' but none of them for the wide genre itself

But we had. It was called "3D action". Any action game that is not a Shooter, or where you swing swords/sling spells in equal measure with shootings were simply called "3D Action" games. And everyone knew that this is an action game where shooting is not the focus.

If you go to Wikipedia, lets say for any old action game like that, for example Enclave, and watch through the history, you will see that prior to 2013 it was not called Hack and Slash but just "3D Action"

From my experience break chance is completely random, but breaking only occurs when you hit something. Sometimes you can slay a few dozens of enemies with a shortsword, sometimes it starts to break after 5 or 6 goblins, even if you dont waste any hits. After it shows the breaking message you've got anywhere from 4 to 8 hits to land, but running around and swinging a shortsword that was breaking down did not break it further and it could still kill a couple of goblins.

>>4659337
Idea for a health system I had for a while was to divide player's healthbar into segments. Health would regenerate, but only up to fill the segment you are currently inside. To regenerate health above that, you need to pick up a medkit.

Now you might say that's just Far Cry 3/4 health mechanic, but there's a catch - the segments aren't divided evenly. They are divided so first segment is 40 points long (0-40), second segment is 20 points long (41-60), third is 18 HP long (61-78), fourth segment is 12 HP long (78-90) and final segment is 10 HP long (90-100).

This way, it takes the same amount of resources to heal 20 points when you're seriously wounded - as it takes to heal 10 points when you're very healthy. So player will be encouraged to walk around with health that isn't 'topped off' to max, as it's more efficient to be slightly wounded.
This results in a risk-reward scenario - you save healing resources to utilize them more efficiently later - but you increase your risk of death.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Another idea I had was for small health bonuses to simply fill up player's "health pool". Each health bonus doesn't heal you, but simply adds 5 points to you 'health pool". Health pool goes up to 50 points.

Whenever you have less than 50 HP, your health will slowly start to regenerate - FROM the health pool. Of course, as you regenerate the health, the pool drains - and you gotta refill it by finding more health bonuses.

I imagine the same approach could apply to armor bonuses and armor.


Feel free to steal either of these ideas, I don't know if I would ever actually use them in a mod/game anyway.

Also got this idea for shotguns to have abstract damage, kinda like in an ttrpg.
> Fire 1 pellet that causes "BigShotgunDamage" type
> Fire 1 pellet that causes 1d3 x 10 damage
> Fire 6 crap pellets that only cause 4 damage each.

Any monster that gets hit with the "BigShotgunDamage" type will suffer a certain amount of damage as determined by its painstate for that.

Also to prevent monsters being 100% chance fazed each time by such checks you give the monster a token or maybe two kinds of tokens during its attack phase that says "im attacking now" so that if they're hit with a 100% chance painstate damage type, that painstate will automatically send it back to its attack routine instead of going back to the standard chase states.
> it might twitch while attacking but this wont really save you from their attack
> it could still percent chance divert to the regular painstate after it does its thing so that it has an honest chance to stun it

So out of 70 damage, you have 24 guaranteed from the 6 pellets designed for stunning and making puffs on the wall. Another 10-30 from the 2nd pellet that is fired which provides some randomness. The primary pellet could also just cause 4 damage (we're up to 48) so then the monster would probably take about another 22 damage during their painstate for it.

Then again for Zombies this doesnt really matter so much so they might not even need this help (full blast will put down a shotgun sergeant, it will put down 2 zombie troopers). Also since Chaingun guys should take 2 blasts to kill it could also be left alone for them so that you have to hit them with two full blasts to kill them (38-58 damage per blast if all of them connect, but even if they dont all hit due to the 10-30 point variant you could still kill it in 2 shots).

They share mechanics and concepts.
They use them differently, but again, that's not very different from how SWAT 4 and Doom fall into the same genre (FPS) but they use their similar mechanics in completely different ways i.e. in Doom, action key is used to press switches - in SWAT 4, it's used to secure evidence. In Doom, weapon selection is based on whether you're fighting a crowd or a single tough enemy - in SWAT 4, weapon selection involves choosing between lethal and non-lethal weapon, based on your intel of there are hostages in the line of fire.

And that means anyone hit by the two big pellets is going to have a bad day since those would cause about 74 each (though Imps who are closer than 256 map units could say they take 128 just to make sure they gib, while chaingunners could have a 50% chance to take 140 so they gib some of the time).

Archvile's great. It's like a miniboss fight every time you see one. His attack immediately forces you on the defensive, compared to the slow movement and attacks of a Baron. He also has the lowest pain chance in the game, so you can't easily just stunlock him or rush him down. But if you're too defensive, he'll just start resurrecting dead monsters. And with his huge health pool, you can't just brush him off with a couple rockets.

So you're forced into this heavy tension of needing to be aggressive enough that he won't start reviving enemies, but defensive enough that you don't get caught in the attack. Meanwhile he's completely fucking up your enemy prioritization because he's super buff, but you can't afford to take him down last like every other buff enemy.

He's just such a wildcard compared to everything else in the game, and the moment you hear him, you're immediately forced out of whatever plan you had and have to figure out what the fuck you're gonna do now. It's cool to have monsters that can stop your heart and rethink everything. Pic related.

I started with Doom 2, so I'm more used to everything in it.
I do have to admit, the level design in the original Doom is certainly better if you wanna talk quality. But even Doom 2 has a very nice style, and I really can appreciate it.
I am also very used to always having the super shotgun since it's the best weapon in the game, so there's that, too.

Look up the levels you hated the most. I guarantee you that there will be one name that comes up again and again.

Sandy Petersen's maps are ugly, first and foremost his maps are just incredibly ugly in ways that they should never be part of a commercial game. Modders even back in the day made better maps for free, or not free when they were so good id bought them to release as new episodes. There is just no excuse for the sheer ugliness of his maps. Any kind of innovation on his part is neglected by the fact they look like a blind 5 year old made them. It's not only that they fail to look as pretty as Romero's maps, it's that they failed to achieve even a decent look like American's maps had. Petersen's shit was sub par and offensively ugly.

But worse worse than that was his item placement and enemy composition. Placing morsels oh health and ammo ALL OVER the fucking map is so fucking aggravating. The way he groups enemies together in neat but overblown packages makes it a grind to kill them. Dispatching enemies in a Petersen map isn't fun, it becomes a chore instead. Enemies cease to be enemies to be fought and instead become obstacles that you have to grind down in order to progress further through the ugliest gimmick laden theme park ever created.

To be fair, knowing the right path to the red key was because you mentioned it last time.

My assumption about the Archvile can't be proven, of course, because I already knew where he would appear. It's not a real criticism on my part.

I would give more criticism, but I don't really know what to think, because it's fine. I slightly resent that you made it easier by giving the super shotty so early and the plasma gun at all, but that's a matter of personal preference. I hope a demo is more useful than what I'd have to say.

I remember doing 3-player co-op in Sunlust with LegenDoom and Colourful Hell on GZDoom. Not one desync in 30 maps. If your game is desyncing, it's either a user error in the load order/version, or the mod (if any) is badly written. (Yes, the latter is entirely possible.)

Tank looks pretty fun though. If it were a separate zandronum mod, with some other features (domination style capture the flag and that sort of thing) you could have a pretty fun multiplayer mode.

Hell, with a few player classes it could be a tank-centric battlefield style game. Maybe 2-3 tank types (light, medium, heavy) and then some ground troops and buildings... decent sized maps.

I would say Flying Wildhog showed good (but not perfect) potential for it with Shadow Warrior 2013, assuming they were convinced to stick closer to the original Blood's style, tone and gameplay.
But then you look at Shadow Warrior 2 and you realize that Jesus Christ, this could very easily go very wrong.
I'm wondering if bringing in some of old 3D Realms more competent staff for consulting (guys like Joe Seigler), and maybe if you could find whoever was the project lead for Blood once it moved to Monolith.

There's some things to unpack here. I really don't think D2Reloaded is a good substitute for Doom 2 at all, Final Doom is FAR better, both in style and in gameplay.

There's also lots of good assets beyond just the new monsters.
While the music selection could at times be repetitive, there was a lot of good new tracks, and lots of the new textures and flats are very nice, filling niches which the original Doom lacked (waterfalls, massgraves, ostensibly cities, etc).
I'll also argue there's a bunch of good maps in 2, among the mediocre and bad ones. Crusher, Tricks & Traps, Refueling Base, and Bagel Of Apocalypse, these maps are great.

>>4659634
>or we'd have thousands to play but with no interesting enemies...
Doom 1 has a more limited bestiary, but it only takes some creativity to put them to really good use. Try out Double Impact, far better than D2Reloaded and it doesn't even have as many monsters.

>>4659636
>>4659639
You guys need to stop sucking at Doom, Christ.
Yes, the Arch-Vile is harder than the rest of the monsters, because he is completely different from them, forcing you to change all your tactics. You can't just keep circlestrafing to stay alive, using infighting on him is hard, and he immediately makes himself your first priority because he's very deadly himself, readily raising monsters you've already killed, even really dangerous and bothersome ones like Barons, Revenants, and Mancubi

If you think he's hard, good, that's the point, he's supposed to to turn any encounter upside down, and that's why you need to develop strategies and ideas for fighting him.
First and foremost, mobility is your best friend, but you also need cover, or mobillity can't help you.

Cramped spaces and torches and trees just in the middle of places. Map 4 archviles was not fun. You use custom music on map 1,3,4 but not 2 for some reason.

I've only played 3 maps so far and there's definitely some weird design choices going on. Some parts felt unnecessarily cramped and I really hated the platforming part in map 2, I died like 3 times there. Texturing could also use some work.
I wouldn't say it's outright terrible, but there's a lot that can be improved, so keep at it.

Here's map02: http://www.mediafire.com/file/1el5k845dlsmh8u/map02firstrun.lmp

Map02 takes a while because it's a real cocksucker. The chainsaw pillar is too high, and it's very annoying to build up speed to grab it. I don't know if you play with mouselook on, but without mouselook, platforming blindly is really awful, especially when the penalty is the max damage hurtfloor. The Archvile fight is very annoying without mouselook too, because it's hard to get a precise shot while stumbling down stairs and trying to aim down. I don't know if you intended the first Revenant fight to be with a chainsaw, but I never felt comfortable enough with ammo to risk anything else.

There's like, thousands of textures that sometimes come in handy sets of 20, sometimes they're completely random. I don't know yet how to organize them, as in, how to name since I'm locked to 8 characters and having that many would requite careful coding... But I digress.

Here's MAP04: http://www.mediafire.com/file/o4iph81v3xks43m/map04secondrun.lmp

Oh, I get it. Maps 1-3 were a dream, and then when I died, I woke up in Map 4. But where the fuck do I live? Why is my fucked up tech-apartment next to a pillar of Archviles? How did that Hell Knight and all those Lost Souls and Spectres get in my locked second room?

I have no earthly idea how I'd have survived the Archvile box without the blue armor and soulsphere.

I got lost because I couldn't remember where the red door was. Heading back to the start was a guess. If there was some kind of window or indicator (maybe by the yellow key?) it would have been a bit easier.

I try not to state my beliefs as objective quality because I believe in map creators having final say. But I will tell you what I think about your design philosophy: Your levels are weird, ugly, gimmicky, and filled with tight corridors, tight fights, and little ammo. You seem to really like the chainsaw, platforming, and environmental tricks. You seem to assume that players understand the little tricks of the engine -- specifically grabbing items by running fast enough, running diagonally to have enough speed to outrun fast water, and hitting switches that are above your actual height.

I felt more frustrated than challenged. Harsh punishments for platforming felt awful, having little ammo but needing to make tough shots was annoying, and navigating the levels felt awkward.

Thanks for letting me demo your work.

Something like this would be better for a Build engine game. A big part of what made Max Payne great was that every bullet was dodgeable because there was no hitscan, and Max was particularly agile (aided with bullet time), so you could pull off some killer stunts and dodges. Having an engine with no bullet modeling, native crouching, jumping, or ability to make complicated architecture to take cover behind takes away from that.

Also, Build allows for the kind of setpieces that Max had - blowing up walls and floors and car crashes and shit.

>> No.4660743

>>4660725
Well, that depends on what aspect of Max Payne you're trying to capture. If you're just trying to match the general tone, aesthetic and noir story style of the game, details like projectile bullets and bullet time don't matter so much.

But if you're trying to match the superb gameplay style with the bullet time, projectile bullets and destructible set pieces you could feasibly make it all work in Doom, but it would be a lot easier to do it in Build. Plus, the Build engine needs more love in general.

But you can't do either of these things without the basic enemy sprites, which is what I'm interested in. I'd love to find someone who'd do at least one of these as a request.

I'd hesitate to call it a masterpiece, but I think working from a game where the plot is extremely plain and basic, they do a decent job making characters and making for some narrative (for the first book).
The lone and isolated atmosphere is really strong, even when Fly isn't actually alone, and the authors do a really good job extrapolating and interpretating elements and locations from the first game, seemingly also taking a lot of cues and inspiration from Alpha and Beta developmental content, and/or Tom Hall's Doom Bible.

If you like Doom, and the "What if..." thoughts from looking at the developmental builds and ideas always sparked your imagination and excited you, then it can be interesting.
It takes a lot of liberties with the source material (and to an extent it's understandable, because Doom doesn't have much in characters or narrative), but it's better than you'd expect it to be.

As a /k/unt, the sparse gun stuff in the novels is kind of interesting. A lot of it is kind of silly and makes little sense if you have any knowledge on the subject (things like .30-99 caliber, "M-14 BAR", or a 150 round drum magazine for a shotgun), but the quirky ideas are kind of cute (the "SIGCOW", the interpretation of the rocket launcher and how you could carry so many rockets, etc).

There's a lot you could criticize though, and this gets truer and truer with each book.
The last book also is so weird and out there it for some reason makes me think a lot about Team TNTs work, mostly after Final Doom, where they'd do weirder and weirder stuff, like Icarus: Alien Vanguard, or Daedalus.
It feels very little like classic Doom, and more like someone's weird high concept Doom megawad from the late 90's/early 2000's.

A lot of the better work Sandy did for Doom was reworking scrapped Tom Hall maps.

For Doom 2, there was only one of those, and he was probably doing more maps than he should have, because Romero had developed an allergy towards doing his job, and American McGee was only so-so.
I think Sandy can be good, and he's really good filtering through Tom Hall leftovers, but I think in Doom 2 it was a less than ideal situation.

Looking at Quake, Sandy's maps there were absolutely ace.

So I just got through Big Gun in Quake 2 before the game crashes and refuses to let me progress. I skipped to the final boss and it was probably the most uninteresting fight I've ever played in my life. Every single level leading up to that boss (besides the few I didn't play obviously, dunno if they're this way or not) has been one of the most boring romps through tedious, ugly levels I've ever had in my entire life. Quake 2 was such a slog to play through that I legitimately got a headache just going through the levels after a while. The weapons are great, the enemies are great, but the levels and the placement of enemies are so fucking astoundingly boring that I'm amazed anyone ever gave this game anything above a mediocre rating. It's tedious, it's boring, and I seriously want to know how anyone likes this fucking game, because evidently it can't be for the levels.

I will give you credit, you took some of the criticism and did fix some things. I appreciated the teleporters in floors that kill you. I think you should turn around some of the pinkys because it's kinda weird looking seeing them turned around if their really is no threat around them. The textures also look a little better as well.

Map01: Lifts as stairs. Pinkys still can't get up beginning steps. Some pinkys should be turned around. I appreicate the lights moved and the blue armor can't be gained be bumping. I think the chainsaw around the revenant is pointless. Again I think berserk should be moved near beginning.
Map02: After the red door it's odd that stairs and a lift is there. Lift textures for stairs are odd as well. A brown square around the yellow key is out of place.
Map03: The stairs that lead to the bfg are not good. I would completely change the cyber/arch exit room. You can still run in the exit room and make it if your lucky. It's terrible. Actually had a glitch, I couldn't exit the level for some weird reason even though it worked the first time.
Map04: A lot of empty space after getting out the "house" around the wooden fence. I appreciate the switch for the cyberdemon even if it makes the map so much easier. I found it funny theirs a bridge to the cyberdemon but nothing really worth the risk to go there.

I honestly think you have potential just need to focus on making 1 good map rather than several subpar maps.

Both Doom 1 and Doom 2 has bad leveldesign, as long as Sandy Petersen is the leveldesigner. Episode 2 and 3 are as bad as Doom 2's city maps.

In my opinion the best Doom map is Circle of Death. Not terribly difficult, but abolutely great to look at.

Yes, and don't let your fanboyism blind you.

E2M1 is a terrible shit to start the episode. I don't think Hall was ever working on this one, it's not in the alphas, looks like a typical Petersen map built in 1 hour.

E2M2 - ok, this is not that bad, aside from the weird texturing here and there.

E2M3 - just an inferior version of E2M3, and I really don't like the intermission music when it goes loud.

E2M4 - again, weak texturing and repetitions, the crushers and fake crushers are nice idea though.

E2M5 - just empty halls and buttons, the outside area with the slime is OK, but that's all

E2M6 - one of the worst maps EVER. horrible mazes, empty areas and mazes.

E2M7 - this is fine, at least the base section. The rest of the map is whatever.

E2M8 - shit boss map

E2M9 - probably the worst map in any Doom game (besides E3M2). What's the fucking point?

So two decent map in the episode, the rest are from average to poor garbage.

this, I mean I very thoroughly enjoy E2 and there are only a couple levels I give a shit about in episode 3
(e3m2, e3m3, e3m6 kinda has some nice ambience though)

I like e2m4 just because of the Music alone, also the way the techbase starts turning into marble near the end.

I like e2m2 because of the warehouse aesthetic (xcept I hate crushers). Though e2m3 must have been made while smoking something, that berserk up at the beginning

The wood and marble architecture of e2m5 is gud and represents some of the historical aesthetic of doom. Why are there tech elements in a medieval style map... because its being taken over and the architecture is changing. Secret map is verifiably one of the only slaughtermaps in Doom1 and it has its place, a good trainer on monster infighting (because 8 barons are hard to take on in a semi-small map like that).

The tight spaces of e2m6 make the map kinda hard and its a welcome sight, given the intended control scheme of doom back in the 90s (arrow keys, mouse for some movement, sidestepping as a sidenote). When those barons come out of the alcoves its almost piss worthy because whatcha going to do? chainsaw them?

And e2m7 is just about perfect though it tends to break the continuity of bases being taken over, since its almost untouched by the demon architecture magic. Getting the plasma rifle here isa real treat.

The boss map I can kinda see the concern about it being crap, but then again Duke3D's boss map was literally just a football stadium. I had alot of tense memories of e2m8 trying to go for powerups or rockets when the cyber was literally right in the next room and could rocket my ass through the door if I wasnt careful. The skulls are there to run interference so you can blow yourself up.

the texture scheme would've had to be different but it easily could replace E2M3. Some changes in architecture too, particularly on the side passages in the center area (the ones that become squidlike) and the area off to the left of where the player starts.

The only thing hard about e3m3 was the 2 barons since the hallways were just wide enough to trick you into trying to run past them. It was worth grabbing the BFG just to destroy them because they take so long to kill with the chaingun and shotgun.

>>4661704
I LOVE e3m2. It happens early in the mapset so you aren't entitled to a rocket launcher. There are alot of obstacles and most of the enemies are zombies who can shoot you right through them. Having the Cacos chase you and appear unexpectedly is also a nailbiter. This is one of those maps where it would be prudent to drop an SSG somewhere, except doom doesnt have one, which makes this map a tiny bit hard. Those shotgun sergeants sprinkled throughout the map will probably take a tidy bit of your health off.
> this map is also a wakeup call to use the Berserk to replenish your health when its low, since you get a full 100, its worthwhile to just wait until you're in your 20s or 30s healthwise before you grab it.
> if you were using the Berserk before just because of the punching action, I think this map is going to punish you because you'll get bit by demons alot, fireball'd by cacos, and there isnt all that much health here.

Nevermind, I fixed it.

I realised that there's some extreme differences between the texture's resolutions, specially the 64x64 ones which look half-sized. Instead of just setting the scale, I decided to simply expand them using nearest neighbour in photoshop and... Well, that's the final result.

No, I'm not satisfied with that and, the more I work with this model, more I want to just make those textures from scratch in photoshop, which I'm well capable of doing... The problem is that there's exactly 2537 textures in this pack and I would take literally years to remake all of them.

I don't know how many of you guys are following the project, but if you want to contribute, why don't we handpick the best, let's say, 700 textures, and I'll remake the chosen textures in crystal clear 512x512?

Heretic has no hitscan enemies, but it has plenty of enemies that take too many hits and all they do is run directly at the player to hit them. Enemy variety ranges from "very boring" to "very annoying."

The hitscanners in Doom are fine because they're the weakest enemies healthwise except for the Mastermind, which is a boss, and actively telegraphs when it's going to fire at you. The Chaingunner straddles the line because he can pump out heavy damage if he's sustained on you, but he still can go down in one shotgun blast.

This dude's mostly on the money. Cover has always been a subtle, but integral part of what makes Doom what it is - if it didn't, every PWAD would just be variations on 1997 box-hallway-box or nuts.wad. But because of Gears of War and other regenerating health games based on hiding when you soak up too much damage became the norm, the pendulum has swung too far the other way and everyone that wants to make some kind of "statement" against modern shooters pulls out this big dick "COVER IS FOR FAGGOTS" bullshit.

The only thing I'd say about why hitscan doesn't often come up in "old school" games is I bet that the sheer complexity and expanse of true 3D levels can make it harder to actually tell who's hitting you and from where. Even Quake only has one hitscan enemy, and it's by far the weakest. Serious Sam 3 had hitscanners, and I remember it always feeling very reactive to fight them -- they see you and shoot you first, and then you look to see where they are.

I don't recall any enemy being anywhere near as bad as Doom's hitscanners, weaklings die with one well placed shot of the crossbow. The sheer fact that they're not hitscan means I can go through stages whole without even being hit most of the time.
>The hitscanners in Doom are fine because they're the weakest enemies healthwise
Strongly disagree, otherwise people wouldn't hate chaingunners and put them in traps that can quickly kill the player if you don't know about them beforehand. Not once did I reach a bullshit trap where damage was inescapable in Heretic, unlike Doom. None of that "open door, get greeted with shotgun to the face before I even notice" baloney either. Heretic has nothing but pure, fresh, non-bullshit challenge with dodgeable projectiles and enemies and as such none of them come even remotely close to being as bad as Doom's hitscan enemies.

>one well placed shot of the crossbow
That still means you need to have the crossbow and waste it killing trash mobs. Killing Gargoyles with the wand is still interminable compared to the pistol shots needed to kill a zombieman or a shotgunner. There's also no guarantee of a well placed shot because the crossbow shot, like too much of Heretic, is randomized.

>people wouldn't hate chaingunners and put them in traps that can quickly kill the player if you don't know about them beforehand
Not every map is Plutonia. Your problem is not with chaingunners, but with that designer's use of chaingunners. It's possible to make a bullshit trap out of anything, even non-hitscan enemies. Also, the chaingunner is the only hitscan trooper that takes more than a couple pistol shots to kill, and almost every mapper gives you more than a pistol to deal with them.

>none of that "open door, get greeted with shotgun to the face before I even notice" baloney either. Heretic has nothing but pure, fresh, non-bullshit challenge with dodgeable projectiles and enemies and as such none of them come even remotely close to being as bad as Doom's hitscan enemies.
Again, your problem is not shotgunners, but with that designer's use of shotgunners. And what is your problem with taking damage? Do you think mapmakers are so dumb that they don't know that a player will take damage from a shotgun blast when you open the door? There's a reason there are health pickups and armor. Map design is based on recognizing how much damage the player can take, how much they can dish out, and how much health they'll be expected to have by the end of a fight. You can recover from a shotgun hit or even chaingun fire. It's not like every time you see a hitscanner, it's an instant death trap that you never could do anything about. They're a tool to put pressure and force a certain kind of movement, like every other enemy.

What if you enter a door and are shot before you can even react because enemies work that way? Many times people here have complained about mappers who put sergeants right behind a door since they can shoot you before the door has even finished opening.

What if you go through a corridor and a trap springs with a bunch of chaingunners behind you opening fire before you can react?

What if you enter an area and before you notice there's snipers shooting you off a balcony?

What if you go outside and chaingunners are suddenly teleported in front of you, leaving you no way to dodge their shots because there's no cover out in the open so you _have_ to kill them to survive but not before taking unavoidable damage?

The problem with hitscanners is that there are plenty of situations where damage will be unavoidable if you don't know about the map you're playing beforehand. There's no strategy involved. This isn't about regular out-in-the-open hitscanners that you can see beforehand, can take cover from and are easy to pick off. No wonder hitscanners eventually died out.

Yes. Playing clean lets you perfect your skill at much more rapid rate, since there is a clear criterion that distinguishes playing the game right from playing the game wrong: you being hit. The thing about unavoidable damage is that isn't not always apparent whether it really was unavoidable, or if you were simply doing something wrong. Therefore it makes it much harder to learn from your mistakes, since it's not always apparent, whether you've even made any mistake.

In other words, stop slurping on Romero's ass. Defending Doom2's usage of hitscanners is the same as defending Quake's usage of the steel cage trap in Wizard's Manse, fucking acid marathons in Ultimate Doom's E4M6 or the entirety of Daikatana's ep1.

Because I am not supposed to have mastered the game yet, therefore, I need some leeway, since I am playing it sub-optimally.

Anyway, the thing about Romero specifically is that some of his maps are completely fair, some are completely unfair, and the only thing this seemingly depends on is his mood at the moment he was creating that map.

What the fuck? Says who? The "clear criterion" is being able to beat a level. (Ideally, beating it pistol start UV-Max no saves, but one step at a time here.) You "perfect your skill" by playing the goddamn game and beating it at harder difficulties with more stringent requirements.

Doom isn't a shmup. You are not intended to beat it taking absolutely no damage. If that was the case, there would be no need for armor, whose entire point is to mitigate damage. You are intended to figure out how to do the best you can with what you've got so that you can make it to the end of the level.

How do I explain this.
You criterion doesn't have all that fine a granularity. There is too much lag between your actions and their ultimate result (you either complete the level or die trying), and too many factors influencing said result, so that it becomes much more difficult to zero it on "Ok, THIS was my main mistake".
My criterion, when applicable, makes you learn encounter by encounter. Yours - level by level.

Are you playing a video game, or lifting weights? Are you making maps that's just two revenants in a room so you can do concentration curls by fighting those two revenants over and over until you've mastered it?

Even UV-Max speedrunners take damage, and I promise the top ones are more skilled than you. There are already a million factors influencing your result because the game has randomization inherent in it - your shots don't always do the same amount of damage, enemies don't always have the same reaction time, hurtfloors don't always hurt you at the same time, etc.

You learn by encounters AND by levels. You can easily figure out what fucked you up on an encounter because you can tell what monsters are hitting you based on their sound and timing. But levels aren't just discrete encounters that are wholly detached from each other. They're a continuous whole of multiple encounters, connective areas, hazard navigation, and resources.

Because evading damage would be slower than tanking it. However, tanking is only feasible when you can afford it and know the level well enough to know you will be able to compensate it (so that there isn't SUDDENLY a Drop of No Return combined with A Huge Patch of Not A Single Medkit - and yes, I know that Drops of No Return are not in Doom1/2/UD style, I am talking in general terms).
>There are already a million factors influencing your result because the game has randomization inherent in it - your shots don't always do the same amount of damage, enemies don't always have the same reaction time, hurtfloors don't always hurt you at the same time, etc.
That's why I largely prefer Quake. In addition to Romero and Petersen being at their peaks, it's far more deterministic. Also, shambler can be melee-baited and grunt can be killed from anything during the flinch time, so I also like how it handles hitscanners much more as well.
>You learn by encounters AND by levels. You can easily figure out what fucked you up on an encounter because you can tell what monsters are hitting you based on their sound and timing.
Inescapable damage (and randomization as well, while we are at it) is, like, it's like a noise. It just makes it harder to distinguish just what happened, why, and how that could be prevented in the similar enough situation the next time. It's just, like, playing with huge input-lag or something, it's an obstacle between you and feedback loop, it makes things muffled, less contrasted, less apparent, dirtier. It doesn't ADD anything to the game in terms of skill required, it just provides cheap thrill, I guess.

They are not that continuous. YOU aggro the monsters and YOU spring the traps, and between adjacent encounters you can simply stall for however much you would like (or more like backtrack to That Single Medkit Over Yonder). Or, like, do some secret searching. You very much control your rate of progression, however much the leveldesigners would try to force you to move with timed bonuses, damaging floors, scripted sequences, it's simply not enough to make it absolutely necessary for you to Run Strictly Forward for the entirety of the level. Moreover, Running Strictly Forward is pretty much incompatible with any sort of exploration, and nowadays, is generally seen as a hallmark of all of them CoowaDoodies (as opposed to Ye OldeSkoole).

In other words, in old shooters, the encounters are really not that connected one to another. It's just that some level-designers tried their best to provide at least some SEMBLANCE of them being connected, there being some continuity (see Romero), and some didn't even try to pretend, and, just tried to make INDIVIDUAL encounters as varied and entertaining IN THEMSELVES as possible (see Petersen).

These maps are fun!
I really appreciate the boom features used in this wad, specifically in level 2. The texturing is somewhat disjointed with its frantic erratic lines and edges, but I do not mind it at all. I enjoy how bite-sized these maps are, you can really feel the weight of the 30 or so enemies in each map.

Level 1 is standard, i like the opening scene of the glowing hallway. Standard blasting the keycard collectan. The SS Soldier secret made me chuckle but I was unable to find the megaarmor secret. The outdoor area is way too bright, i think 255 brightness should be reserved for sectors directly next to a light source. The brightness in this area does not make much sense because the sky is overcast and moody, also the fact that there's no shadows doesn't help but i suppose this is a bit of a nitpick. I really like the lighting detail in the valley, how it darkens in a gradient. Overall, not bad.

Level 2 is great! I love the flowing water mechanic and the way to get the soulsphere is brilliant. The texturing the theming in this level is also great, i do not see many levels like this often. Missed one secret.

Level 3 starts out pretty fun, I really like how you implemented the baron. I killed him by leading him out to the 5 barrels and saving about 5 shells, then I switched on the crusher and felt a little dumb. I like encounters like that which reward thought and restraint. I didn't exactly dig the rest of the level. I felt a bit like a slog. The ending was pretty funny, but the death exit seemed to have not worked properly the first time. It was out of timing and made me confused, made me think if I had to find the 'real exit' on a timer, and the first time, the level didn't end even after 5 seconds of death. The second time it worked, but it was still at an odd timing. I played it in latest gzdoom if that helps.

Yes. Why do you feel that you're expected to beat a level skillfully your first try? Again, levels are designed as a continuous whole; some encounters are brutal to whittle you down for a followup, some encounters are deliberately easy to get you stocked up for the next fight (which the hitscanners also do by giving you weapons and ammo when they die). Some encounters trick you into making them harder by bringing more monsters in if you make noise or step over a certain linedef. They build and release tension in relation to each other, and create a journey of exploration, expectation, surprise, and resolution. Your first play is just immersing yourself into discovering the level and trying to figure out what it's asking for. Your later playthroughs are to refine and reinterpret that initial reaction, like listening to a song again or re-reading a book.
>Inescapable damage is, like, it's like a noise...it makes things muffled, less contrasted, less apparent, dirtier....it just provides cheap thrill, I guess.
It's not a "cheap thrill," it's dynamism. It makes fights more tense because your margin for error is forcibly lowered by damage. "Skill" is not just what your analysis gives you in a moment of cold calculation - it's reacting to the stress of not immediately knowing what happened or having your plans get messed up while still trying to prioritize enemies and maneuver the environment. And, again, it exists in the continuum of the level -- a fight with a mancubus isn't very scary unless you end up in a situation where you could die in one hit. Calling it "noise" and "dirt" (besides being very weird) implies that you get disgusted by not having absolute understanding or control of something, and that's somewhat odd.

Level 4 felt experimental with its gameplay and texture choice. It felt less disjointed than the past three levels, perhaps more experience with the textures? Did you also try out ammo starvation in this map? I went for the concrete bunker first and found myself punching pinkies with my fist (I had not found the chainsaw secret). When I got the super shotgun secret I then had a surplus of 30 shells, which makes me think you had anticipated me visiting that area first. Did not bother me though, as I found it fun. This map is also pretty fun to blast through, probably my second favorite. It reminds me of a somewhat easier scythe 1-style map. I was not able to find the switch that kills the cyberdemon, but I still made it out without harm.

Overall this is very promising. I would like to see what else you make in doom! I played with pistol starts in every level. I think you should try using textures that compliment eachother more, color-wise. In the ast part of level 2 in the mountains, I noticed how every texture used was brown. I think it would be interesting to try and break that up with the white rock textures, or make the base a palette of the metal AND the green base textures. Just a thought. Well done mate.

It's not so simple. You can wake up monsters that you had no idea about because there was a sound tunnel hidden from the player. You can enter a room that has a window, and now more monsters than you expected are reacting to you. You can think that you have time to run back and get a secret, but unbeknownst to you, more monsters have been spawned or released in your path behind you precisely because the designer knew you were going to backtrack, like in E1M7. There's all kinds of interconnections invisible or unexpected to the player -- sound tunnels, linedefs, voodoo dolls, windows -- that can make individual encounters have relevance in later encounters.

And even without that kind of trickery, there's still just the matter of the designer knowing how much health and ammo you're ideally going to have by the end of a fight, thus limiting how much you can get back by the next fight and setting the stage for the next. I just played a dude's map that ended up forcing me to kill a revenant with a chainsaw because all my other weapons were drained by the time I got there. It was annoying but hilarious, and happened because of the mapper's decisions up to that point. I controlled the time I got to the revenant, but I didn't control where he was going to be nor what I was going to have when I got there. Later playthroughs would make me more judicious with ammo, but that's an alternate interpretation of the map that I could only afford to do after having learned the map the first time.

You are being played as much as you are playing the game. You are not in full control. You are giving and taking, being demanded a response as much as you are responding. Hitscanners are part of that conversation.

You know whats probably the nastiest thing about Hitscan enemies?

The fact that if they fired FastProjectiles going like Speed 50 you'd still have a damn hard time getting out of the way. So its not even that they're instantaneous, its that these players are being HIT and they dont like being Hit. Even if it is for alot less damage than they get from fireballs.

Fuck, I mean Nails in quake are fairly hard to dodge if a player is firing them. Those arent hitscans. They just go kinda fast and they're hard to see because everything is brown. They'd probably be going Speed 40 in doom but if troopers were shooting them and shotgun sergeants were shooting a volley I think everyone would pretty much take it to the face just like hitscans (I mean their firing arc is random, if you were moving you might well just dodge into it).

What they're REALLY complaining about is the delay before the enemy shoots your ass. It doesn't take long for a zombie, sergeant or chaingunner to raise their weapon and fire. I forget how long it is for monsters but typically its like 3 frames at 8 tics each before the fireball is released.

>What if you open a door and get hit by a rocket from a Cyberdemon waiting on the other side? What if you enter a room and get surrounded by Revenants hopping out of monster closets?
Perfectly survivable encounters, in fact the latter is especially common and it's perfectly possible to avoid damage if you're skilled enough at dodging and baiting.
>What if you open a door and a crusher comes down and kills you?
I'm not sure what point are you trying to get to here, but that's not a counter-argument at all, that's just another example of bad design where skill isn't the survival factor
>and saying that every time you fight a hitscanner it's going to be that way
I never said that at all, nice strawman. I'm using those examples to showcase the the faults of hitscans and why even ID themselves stopped using them. I even mentioned how the point wasn't related to regular encounters where you have cover, how did you miss that?

Because they're annoying, but at least Quake's are done well. Grunts would logically have hitscan of course because they have shotguns, and (at least on normal non-Nightmare difficulties) are easy to dodge- always keep moving perpendicular to them and they'll miss as they aim slightly behind your position. Shamblers can be danced with in melee range or easily avoided with walls, have an obvious tell, and much like the Grunt's shotgun, their lightning is essentially the player's own weapons turned against them, albeit in a much less damaging form.

>>4662345
Tradition, probably. Projectiles are much more fun when the player has the freedom of movement of Quake, whether that be avoiding Chthon's predictive projectiles or learning that you can jump right over a Death Knight's firewall instead of trying to dodge the individual projectile bits.

None of that changes the fact that it's not the same context. Something that was released and finished 25 years ago, where the creators moved on to their next project, doesn't need to "adapt". When you look back at old games, you either adapt to how they play, or you don't play them.

And yes, you aren't adapting to the gameplay; some ranged attacks are fundamentally different from each other, and that's part of the game.
What would you suggest, real solid projectiles for a game which just barely ran on a 386? They'd have to move much faster to be set apart from other monsters, and by that point, you just have ranged attacks which are hard to dodge anyway.

>You can jump over firewalls? I'm mostly surprised by the fact that the jump is that high
Hell yes you can. Not every part of it- the variation means some fireballs will be too high to jump over, even if you're standing at ground level when he attacks- but the lower ones can be leaped over easily and the medium ones you can often still clear with some practice. If the Death Knight is further away, you generally don't have to as the fireball spread is wide enough that you can easily strafe around to dodge it, but at closer ranges (i.e. indoors) it really helps being able to jump the wall when it's grouped much closer together and you don't necessarily have room to evade it horizontally.

It is possible to put two floors on top of eachother, but you can't do this in lower sourceports. There IS ways of doing it unique to each sourceport. Furthermore, there IS a way to split two connected sectors without fucking them up. I do it all the time.

I don't know but I'm interested in this too, most material on forced perspective out there is in regards to art/photography and nothing about working in an actual 3D effect. I've thought about it a fair amount and it would be even more difficult in an older game like Doom, as the usual tricks of real-world forced perspective- slanted angles, staircases wider at the bottom than the top, hyperdetailing on smaller surfaces, etc.- are immediately given away as fake due to the scale of the textures and the ease of noticing walls not aligned to the grid.

Tracers are a good idea. Damage indicators are also a good step -- even Doomguy's face will turn at the direction he got shot at. I figure also good sound design can make it clear by having a distinct sound for getting shot at by a hitscanner. Almost every projectile in Doom has a distinctive impact noise, so having some kind of bullet-hitting-ground or bullet-hitting-flesh noise could make it easier react to.

It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it- the biggest difficulty of Doom mapping is actually trying to figure out HOW to do what you want to do something. I was experimenting with Sloped 3Ds in my recent Madness-Combat map; and suffice to say, those are a real bitch if you want to try to make, say, floating rocks.

For now I'm taking a break from mapping until the Joel maps, playing Terraria for mapping inspiration. I'm gonna need a bunch of custom textures, but I think I'll just stick with purple recolors and do a Corruption-Themed map next. Feels like it would be the easiest to translate to a Doom map.

I suggest having different shotguns have separate round types in order to accommodate for vanilla Doom's weapon roles (e.g buckshot for long range, Dragon's Breath to stunlock etc).

Another way to make the shotties distinct would be changing their method of firing. You could make the shotguns pump action, semi auto, or dual wielded (using alt fire). You'll definitely want to use weapon states for the more exotic sprites as well.

I'll give you an example:
Blunderbuss - A single-shot shotty that uses corpses for ammo (like Undead Nightmare). It fires gibs as projectiles and knocks back enemies at point blank range. It has a long reload time in order to nerf its near infinite ammo supply.

If you need some inspiration, look at Russian overall and how it differences its arsenal.

Workin on some tweaks and balances to shit. Wave buster now requires a single bullet gem to fire, and now also builds a new heat gauge, sub shots do the same with varying degrees of heat build up. On the plus side I am buffing a few sub shots because of this, the heat beam is going to become stronk once more, on the flip side that it builds up like a motherfucker. Same thing the destroyer of worlds in webm related.

I've also nerfed the Thunderbuss. I looked at the damage values and suddenly I understand why it was so broken, the pellets of the thunderbuss were doing DOUBLE the damage of the mourning star. I fucked up. As a compromise I've buffed the value of shell-tier ammo gems a little, though you don't get as much ammo from killing monsters with the sword and saw glove.

I'm gonna buff the Bonelord soon and give him a fun surprise for his mortar.

The important thing is it's fixed and back to the same damage level of the mourning star, if it's too wimpy I might -ever so slightly- raise the damage. I know some of you guys were worried I'm nerfing everything to uselessness but trust me when I say this is a hell of a lot better when you don't just rely on a single thing and steamroll effortlessly.
Plus having to gauge how many shots you can afford with your subshots is kinda fun and makes you think twice.

Though I do wish the Wave Buster mode could be switched out with Reload to match how the sword works, instead of needing to right click.

When I dumped the textures from Tenchu 2 it came close to 25k textures. Most of them were redundant or unrelated to scenery, but even after an initial purge I still have around 3k textures. There's no way I can remaster them all, were talking years of work here.

By prune I mean choosing the top 500 or so textures and hope by God I won't go mad remaking those in Photoshop. I'm a fast shooper but once we enter the field of color fidelity (which is necessary) and other bells and whistles for them to look good on Doom... We're screwed.

Are you genuinely retarded? Nothing said in the last minute or so exclaims that 'This is the way to play Heretic these days.'

Can you play all of them without stop? I.e. last level of one ep starts the next.

Man I felt the exact same way, and vanilla Doom 2 was the way I chose to first experience Doom. I gave up partway through out of boredom and didn't come back.
Then a few months later I decided to try booting up Final Doomer+ with Scythe 2 and I actually started having fun.

On second glance, Sunlust is an exceptional megaWAD if very long
