>I would really enjoy a /vr/ take on the 64kb contest. Maybe even 32kb. Anything that runs in a doom engine and is under that limit would be allowed.

I'd be 100% down for that, I'd love to take another crack at making a tiny gameplay mod.

No Duke or ROTT players better post in here.

Why haven't quake's visuals aged that badly?

do the math !

>>4774423
That's some pretty dark wizardry, anon. If we do a 64kb thing I wanna see you strut your stuff.

>>4774405
BRING IT IN

>>4774428

>>4774426
I hope the idea gets some traction. Regular old maps are also more than fine of course. And for those it's an interesting limit as an alternative to monster count or size limits.

>>4774434
I had a lot of fun with the 64kb contest a few years ago, and I've learned some pretty valuable lessons since then, so I'd love to take another crack at making a gameplay mod.

>>4774437
Yeah, me too man. I worked like a man possessed for ~4 days in total. Shame WW lost the motivation for grading the entries

>>4774446
I don't blame the guy. I'm disappointed, but I don't blame him. A little /vr/ 64kb get together could be fun though

>>4774449
Me neither. He's a good guy, and I know full well what suddenly losing all motivation feels like

>>4774402
good art style never goes out of style

>>4774402
I think the animations are a big part of it

>>4774402
I think it's because it never tried to be realistic.
The textures might be aged a bit but I it goes its favour.They enemies look unsettling and horrifying just like the setting.

An old drawing I've made.

>>4774496
Draw 50 hands every day until you have no more hesitation to ever draw a hand again

>>4774498
Honestly I don't even remember why I didn't draw hands for that one.

>>4774505
Is Doom 2 Reloaded worth playing?

>>4774402
the vast majority of the game is full 3d so it all scales infinitely with your resolution

>>4774509
As someone who admittedly hasn't played a lot of WADs, I find it damn impressive, especially for one guy working alone. And I think it's successful at what it sets out to accomplish: Replacing vanilla Doom 2's weird mishmash of zany, abstract maps with a self-consistent chain of connected areas that sell you more or less the same story the end text is trying to tell. Sort of how Duke 3D's levels are designed.

>>4774523
Thanks I'll check it out.

Btw didn't the creator of Project MSX said is going to release an update?

>>4774398
Too late, nerd.

>>4774402
Good art direction, just like with Doom.

I'll say that the weapon models are beyond hideous, however, those always looked bad to me. I really wish someone would port the Deathmatch Classic models to like, Quakespasm or something.

>>4774409
AAASFGD...!

>>4774489
I think the textures is like the strongest part of Quake, they're *really* good IMO

yay or nay?

>>4774551
Totally yay

>>4774551
Looks good.

>>4774551
I hope that's a literal monster closet

So I played with Quake Stuff Ultra again,this time with PB monsters.I've used Mjöllnir and this happened.The blood was on normal settings.

>>4774505
Where's your face?

>>4774536
Haven't heard that. Where did he say it? I thought he was dead

>>4774536
>>4774614
From what i know, MagSigmaX just dropped because he's like 30 already, i think he just lost interest in keep doom modding as hobbie or something in his real life made him drop it.

>>4774616
That's a shame.Hope he comes back soon.I think he still has a lot to give for the community.

>>4774547
This.
The textures and lighting, colors used. The cold blue stonework that looked just like the (fake) blue lighting cast in dark places in a horror movie. The grody green and beige dungeons. Near-future base installations that still had a brutal marine-proof look and feel to them. Factor in the music, which is a kind of grunge you dont hear anymore, and the atmosphere is pretty damn immersive. Some levels its like walking into a zombie movie.

Quake2 is also still decent because the used-future sci-fi art style is not executed regularly and the setting doesnt suffer from any zeerust. Textures are okay but the overall lighting and colors makes this a visceral, gritty, seductive place to want to explore (especially the mapping in the expansions which is modern-tier and was ahead of its time back then).

it reminds me of thief somewhat

>>4774658
Grenades are too slow for the giant fight in the secret area at the end of Waste Processing, so I just kind of accumulated a ton of them and got by on my pulse rifle and sniper rifle. I used a few here on the way to the blue key, and barely got back to the crusher in time just as the shitflood of monsters started teleporting in right behind me. I think I missed a couple secrets I can't go back to.

>>4774782
I think this mod has some of the greatest reload animations in a Doom mod.

>>4774397
A /vr/ megawad based on a file size limit would be fun...

>>4774782
Some of that just gave me an excellent idea for tracking ammunition, so that you dont end up picking up a box of ammo if you're only a couple shy of a full box... its a little ambitious but here goes...

Basically reduce ammunition capacity by a certain amount, this is just what the player has available offhand at any given moment.
(Max Bullets = 100, Shells = 30, Rockets = 10, Cells = 100)

At this rate it doesnt matter if it wont be displayed on the status bar since the real bulk of your ammunition will be in inventory items that you can track separately.

Treat each Box item of ammo as an inventory item which you can only carry a limited number of. For example Bullet Boxes = 2 since you can already carry 100 bullets. When you go to pick up box ammo then you wont be cut short because the box ammo slot will be full even if you dont technically have the maximum ammo you could carry.

Whenever you OutOfAmmo on a weapon check, it can automatically cycle one of the Box ammo items into regular ammo, allowing you to keep firing.
> you'll still get screwed on ammo when it comes to small ammo pickups

Also im not entirely sure how to apply the backpack, im guessing that the backpack would give you additional items, which each have their own Maximum Ammo capacity attached to them to increase your capabilities (like the way health bonuses inherit from health but have a maximum of 200 instead of 100)

Then again the backpack replacement could also increase normal ammo capacities to make up for the normal lack of ammo maximum, while leaving the box items the same as a reserve.
(backpack max bullets = 300, backpack max shells = 70, backpack max rockets = 60, backpack max cells = 400)


The other soluition I cooked up awhile back was to take each box item and divvy it up into the smallest ammo pickups available for the ammo type and have it spawn all of those in the same spot. So a box of bullets is actually 10 pickups that look like a bullet box, but only give 5 ammo

>>4774818
That doesn't seem fun. Maybe if was for mods, but trying to keep track of filesize for maps would be a pain in the ass and probably wouldn't effect gameplay that much.

>>4774818
It would have to have a set limit for each map, and then combine them. I know someone said to have a 64kb map, so if we have 32 maps at 64kb each, the megawad would be called 2048kb of /vr/.

>>4774862
I think it would be better if the maps were full of details and particles and give it a silly name like 666GB of /vr/ or something.

How many degrees does the A_Tracer function steer a revenant fireball every time it is called when it is actively seeking?
I remember an old value given for it saying it was 9.8 degrees but I want to emulate it with A_SeekerMissile
> the maxturnangle for the revenant rocket is never mentioned in retrospect as it usually would be on the wiki for the functions.

Now THIS is a default texture I'm used to.

>>4774849
pretty sure there's already a mod that splits up pickup to prevent waste

>>4774386
is this really the standard of doom thread pictures/titles? can we not do better?

All of this is cancer
1024 was the lowest common denominator, do not go micro on doom map resolution.

>>4774674
Thank you for this post.

>>4774989
its fun to work around limitations. also udmf maps compress really well with 7z since they're plaintext

>>4774989

you are right, we should do a 16384 sectors challenge

>>4774996
>udmf maps compress really well with 7z since they're plaintext
that just means they're bloated as fuck to begin with

>>4774989
imo congestion 384 was the most enjoyable entry in the congestion integer series.

>>4772881
>>4773983
Don't except him to come back to that anytime soon.
He's already working on Null and even then, he's taking a while.

>>4775012
yeah, but they're "human readable", easy to extend and otherwise future-proof.

Just a question. Are the weapon and hands sprites from Project MSX made by the modder or come from several games?

>>4775029
A combination of both.

>>4774429
Fuck, I love how he smokes that cigar, perfect.

>>4774542
>I'll say that the weapon models are beyond hideous, however, those always looked bad to me. I really wish someone would port the Deathmatch Classic models to like, Quakespasm or something.
I still wish we had something like Smooth Doom for Quake weapons.

>inb4 interpolation
Not only that, but also actual weapon animations like shotgun pumping and properly spinning SNG barrels.

>>4775014
Let's halve that and do congestion 192. I'm sure people would love to play that.

>>4775047
Now there is something similiar. There is a mod that replaces all the weapons with the Doom ones. It's just a reskin but they have the same animations but they are smooth.
So it is possible.

how do i cheat in doomsday engine ?
i go into console by pressing ~ and type "god"

Which one do you prefer? Berserk or Quad Damage?

QUAD DAMAGE
BZZHOEEWWRRR

>>4774890
See, that sound fun to me. Maybe not 64kb (not sure exactly what filesize you can make a fun map on), but we should err on the side of smaller. It could help keep the wad consistent too, since people would be less likely to over detail their maps.
>>4774989
Nah. I'd rather have a filesize limited boom or udmf than a 1024 wad for the 1000th time.

>>4774386
How do I get GzDoom to stop spawning pic related?

>>4775118
quad damage for sure, id rather be shooting things for more damage than punching them for more, even if it doesnt last as long

>>4774989
>>4774397
>>4775120
>>4774996
no because in doom when the mapsize is reduced it means you cant have as many features or textures, the size is uncapped but invariably for the map to be worth a shit to even play it must have some moderate amount of detail to it, like Plutonia Experiment or thereabouts.
You would end up with very small (as in real estate) levels with borderline crappy details, a fairly low monster count... and generally replicating the effect of 90s shovelware wads.
> this is not something worth investing effort or time into
It is not a useful design challenge.

I might be convinced by a 256kb limit as long as it was also "no single area larger than 512x512"

>>4775005
I stick to my guns that we need a 1024 Extended tournament.
> its actually 1536x1536

>>4775092

>>4775176
2048x2048 is better IMO.

>>4775106
What about QUAD BERSERK?

>>4775227
How would that work?

>>4775235
You are four times as angry.

>>4775238
does this mean punching some nearby imp instantly gibs every small fry within a 10 foot radius

>>4775227
I wonder what would happen if you picked up both berserk and quad damage in doom 4. would you be 2016 times angrier?

>>4775227
I guess it would be something like Quad Damage but lasts for the entirety of the map.
Aka OP as hell.

>>4775248
Hell yeah!

>>4775235
Four fists

>>4775303
but if it's quadrupling what you already have wouldn't that make it eight fists

If yes which NIN song they should use for the trailer?

>>4775176

No shit? Isn't that the point of these challenges?
>I might be convinced by a 256kb limit as long as it was also "no single area larger than 512x512"
Your solution is to have a huge limit but severely restrict the style of map you can make anyway. No thanks. 32 maps of room-hallway-room sounds boring as fuck.

>>4775130
>Oh, those are multiplayer spawns for weapons.
That's what +sv_noweaponspawn 1 is supposed to rectify; sv_coop_spactorspawn doesnt work

Do you guys play using pistolstarts?

Currently working on a Half Life mod to re-create all of Doom 1. Some progress so far.

>>4775307
Doomguy attacks with one fist

>>4775413
Even in Doom II? It seems like it would be pretty difficult.
Also do you have some way to automatically do this (I'm using GZDoom) or do you just reload the map every time?

>>4775392
>>4775413
don't most experienced players? i mean most wads are designed for pistol starts

>>4775398
>>4775402
interesting and strange idea, looking good so far
does it have a name? i like your wee logo there

>>4775398
>>4775402
>>4775405
Sweet. Is this all you've done? Any demos we can play?

This unfinished map I tried to make this weekend is 32kb exactly. The file limit idea could be a fun challenge, but what about other stuff we'd need to include like dehackED patches to change map names and other graphics? Wouldn't that make it over 2048kb if we had 32 64kb maps?

>>4775432
maybe 64kb would be a better idea?

>>4775423
>Even in Doom II? It seems like it would be pretty difficult.
it can be but the converse is once you've done half a dozen maps in a row you end up with full health/armour/weapons/ammo and the game becomes too easy.
>Also do you have some way to automatically do this (I'm using GZDoom) or do you just reload the map every time?
i use -warp from the command line, then quit at the intermission screen. prboom's startup time is pretty much instant so it's no bother.

>>4775423
some mods have an option for pistol starts too

to add to that basically once you have full map knowledge (i.e. where to go immediately to get weapons and defences and also foreknowledge of pitfalls and traps) a pistol start isn't much harder than natural progression. then furthermore you can replay the wad in any order you like and ignore any bad maps instead of having to suffer through them to get to good ones that come after it

i mean if i had to play through The Pit every time i felt like playing Industrial Zone i never would

>>4775435
Seconding this

>>4775423
A lot of maps have secrets and "intended paths" that developers and more experienced players are privy too, compared to less others who need to rely on additional equipment.

Trent bailed out early on in Doom 3 development because he personally found id to be sellouts.

If he thought that of Doom 3 id, I'm sure he wants to steer the fuck away from the id taken over by the Bethesda that resells Skyrim every 2 years.

I don't think it'd happen anyway. Trent is busy with his own weird shit nowadays on top of being a dad. Plus, this is just my opinion, but part of Quake's great sound design was the low quality compared to the sound quality we have now. Hard to explain, but a lower bitrate just makes a game sound more dream-like and surreal. You don't get that with high-fidelity sound.

>>4775519

>>4775519
>Bethesda that resells Skyrim every 2 years
How did this become a meme anyways? There was an initial release, the GOTY one, and a remaster. That's pretty standard.

>>4775559
>That's pretty standard
That is absolutely not standard and not in that short of a period of time.

>>4775363
Something like The Background World pls.

>>4775563
It's been 7 years dude. Literally every major game with DLC gets a GOTY edition released not too long after the final DLC is released, and a lot of last-gen games see remasters these days.

>>4775556
Yah. He said poor management at worst. I dunno the internal workings of Id at the time, but the game turned out fun, imo. Doesn't sound like there was a lot of bad blood between them though.

>>4775559
and switch and vr

>>4775579
>and switch
That's just the switch version of the remaster. If we're counting every separate console release as its own release then we can't fucking talk about Skyrim, cause this thread is 60% Doom.

>>4775582
Go back to the chess club

>>4775582
the switch version came out a year later
again, helping fuel this idea that skyrim keeps coming out

2011 release
2013 goty
2016 special edition
2017 switch
2018 vr

i know that's not obscene but very few games have that kind of schedule and longevity in this span of time
also coupled with bethesda (seemingly) not doing much else (of note) it just stuck out more when they kept pushing it, plus skyrim additionally being in the news for things like the paid modding stuff, and tod howard being easily memeable,
well you can now see where it comes from

I mentioned this before,

Doom Hell needs to be more fucked up and twisted not every map but definitely the horror focused maps. I'm talking Agony level fucked-up-ness, babies and children impaled on spikes. Entire rooms of hundreds of captured civilians/marines sprites mutilated, tortured, endlessly crying and begging for death. Demons in the process of sacrificing people with the lucky ones being killed quickly vs tortured.
I mean only one Brutal doom map made me feel that way.

On that note what would be your idea for a really hellish, hell doom map?

>>4775106
Quad Damage + SShotgun best combo

This wasn't even that hard to do. Fuck. Just needs more number tweaking to be balanced without built-in fear from weapon fire.

There's been a lot of incredibly long maps that end up boring joel and the whole chat.
Also, lots of Joel not saving ammo and running out and piling up enemies as always but at least he acknowledges it..

So far the contest seems to be way better than last year just for the fact there's been less amateurish shit. I still remember a map that literally was some square maps, one with a HOM and a random untextured corner and didn't even have an end level trigger so Joel just ended up standing there once the boss was killed.

>>4775737

>>4775742
Nah I'm doing the "Monsters Only" version I've wanted to do for a while, I know people love weapon packs but there are very few monster packs to use them with so it might be fun.

>>4775748
Oh, interesting. Sweet. Good idea.

>>4775756
My next planned project is also monster-centric. Technically Babel was also very much a monster mod but the mod as I wanted it to be required some weapon code as well to function. I'm hoping I can get the monsters only Babel to at least be passable.

>>4775728
A Doom level that takes place during the eclipse, and you eventually have to fight The God Hand.

>>4775759
I very much look forward to it, I liked the design ethos behind babel. I also really enjoyed the weapon changes you made in babel.

>>4775728
Doom was already pretty fucked up, especially for the time. Almost all media that depicted Hell was pretty tame compared to Doom, which had shit like hanging bodies, twitching impaled corpses, that sort of thing.

Not to say we can't go further.

My idea for a hellish hell Doom map would actually be based on Wayne Barlowe's depictions of Hell. His vision is like that of a sprawling demonic metropolis more than pure chaos, where the demon inhabitants have their own economy based off of the souls of the damned. It's a very creative vision of Hell, sort of a corporate lawful evil version compared to Hell typically being seen as chaotic evil, if that makes sense. A map like that would incorporate sort of urban medieval suburb design while still being alien and disturbing, with street lamps being powered by perpetually flaming corpses, or the still-living and twitching limbs and heads of damned souls being stuffed into barrels. Rugs and carpets would be the stitched-together faces of sinners and when you take steps on that surface you'd hear someone moan in pain or the crunch of their nose. But then that rug would be the centerpiece for a massive unholy library, with hovering enshrouded things whispering and watching.

>>4775770
Yeah I liked tweaking them too honestly. It was a great experience overall, despite all the hiccups. I've just got a few more little bits of polish to put on it and then I think it'll be 1.0, mainly filling out the special difficulties and doing a lot of end-to-end stability checking and performance testing. My machine's pretty beastly so I'm not sure how hard it chugs weaker boxes but I've been doing my best to optimize so hopefully it isn't too bad.
You can rest assured that before I even announce a new project I'll be sure to finish this one up, and the next one will have just as much polish since I'm kind of OCD about bugs and shit not being quite right.

>>4775765
Does it include the full rape of your wafui in the process?
Also the new Brutal Doom Sacrificial grounds map (32). Corpse piles in rivers of blood with tortured marines crying in agony around you.

>>4775775
something I wanted to point out in that post but forgot after I hit send was that if you have this environment of constant pain and torture, eventually the player will get used to it and get sick of it. contrast is really important if you want to suck the player in. that's why i like Barlowe's depiction of hell. on one hand, it's quite organized and civilized on the demon's side of things. they have their own culture and society and architecture. but on the other hand, they still do heinous, horrible shit like street vendors serving spitroasted unbaptised stillborn fetuses to lesser goblins, or altar temples being heated by the flaming bodies of sinners. let the player explore a relatively civilized and cohesive environment before yanking on the choke chain and reminding them just how fucked up Hell really is.

>My idea for a hellish hell Doom map would actually be based on Wayne Barlowe's depictions of Hell. His vision is like that of a sprawling demonic metropolis more than pure chaos.
If going by doom 3 and doom 2016, that's pretty much what they do and sounds like the capital of Hell which is the city of Pandemonium and also a Doom level. I also take the idea that Hell is just as much a prison for the demons as the doomed and like the 40k war its a inverse refection of the real world/dimension where negative emotions are what shapes it.
And just like 40k for the most part demons are too busy fighting each other over an eternal conflict. I imagine most demons especially along the lines of the Barrons and Hell Knights to be very vain and prideful and constantly fight over who gets dibs at fresh souls and likely very much hate look down upon demons that represent chaos/lust. Just like Khorn hating Tzeentch.

>On that note what would be your idea for a really hellish, hell doom map?

A long map with a lot of hitscanners, and all of the medikits are in a narrow hallway you have to revisit, but because the hallway is so narrow the odds of you wasting a medikit are high.

>>4775793
>>4775806
The only thing Hell Demons ever agree upon and work together is the chance to break into the real world and slaughter/maim/torture squishy humans vs in Hell where petty feuds and squabbles over souls where you just come back to life anyway.

>>4775814
Don't forget hidden Archviles constantly reviving any downed hitscanner.

>>4775818
Also it's not chaingunners, it's zombiemen. Which is arguably far more annoying when they just plink you for 5 HP

and you might be right there, not sure what else you'd do

>>4775848
Yeah no with the power scales of different sets being so varied I'll just put one in. Probably it'll scale from 0 (off) to 10 (everything runs in like 2 shots).

This enemy multiplier is great fun for testing. Also there is now a fear slider

>>4775838

One of us. One of us. One of us. One of us.

What exactly is this texture sourced from anyways anyways? It looks like steel colorised to tan.

>>4775879
Nah not today, I won't budge on that for mods that affect enemies and weapons at the same time. I consider it a personal failing to have to put an option like that into a mod, or at the very least an admission that I'm not confident in my balancing. I suppose there's the argument that if a mod is intended to be combined with other mods it needs to be flexible, which I can accept, but I still don't really like it all that much. Maybe I'm just a hipster but when I make a mod I view it in the same way as if I was writing a story or drawing a picture. I wouldn't just leave some bits empty or say "Here's the thing and a few pieces you can slot into it to make it look/read to your preference", I'd write/draw it the way I intended. Now other options that don't affect gameplay like compat/performance? A-Ok and everyone needs them.

>>4775863
Does it need a level restart?

>>4775886
It makes sense for some stuff, but yes I agree with your stance on it and for your work.

>>4775363
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSB4ogrs4Rg

>>4775886
games themselves include difficulty settings for a reason

>>4775894
>Does it need a level restart?
Nope, immediate.
And yeah, I don't expect other people to follow my rules, but I'll definitely suggest them. I think it also helps to focus the scope of a mod and improves polish when you can't handwave a difficult balance decision by saying "I'll make a switch for it". I know it did for Babel.
>>4775896
Yeah and Doom's difficulty setting changes monster numbers and how much ammo you get. It doesn't remove or add mechanics with the exception of nightmare. Honestly I don't even really like difficulty settings as a concept, NG+ modes as an exception. Usually they just boil down to multipliers on health/damage/accuracy and are the definition of artificial.

>>4775896
yes and those games are fine,
but then look at dark souls

>>4775902
what does "artificial" even mean? what is non-artificial game design?

>>4775906
Artificial means that it prolongs or shortens a piece of the gameplay loop with minimal adjustment to that loop outside of scaling things like damage, health, xp gain, etc. It's artificial because there's no thought put into it, it's simply a mathematical operation. Even Doom's settings are better than your typical modern AAA game, as Doom's settings do change enemy positions and therefore encounter design, meaning that they don't just make an encounter easier by nerfing or buffing, instead they make it easier by changing the composition of the encounter.

>>4775906
i get why that may not be the best word to use, but i get what he means
lazy design that makes things more 'difficult' merely through manipulating numbers without actually fundamentally changing anything
it usually only serves to make things take longer and be more tedious, not more challenging in terms of player skills or strategy

>>4775728
Bloodstain had some pretty strong hell maps late on, one was really fleshy and had a great tense atmosphere, with impaled and hanging bodies here and there, interspersed with circuitry running through the flesh, and dimensional doorways crisscrossing through areas that were voids with suspended platforms.

Anyway, when I played this one map, it was late at night, and I had headphones on, and I was playing with Immoral Conduct. Just at the start of the map, I hear someone whisper to the right of me "Please... kill me...", which scared the everloving shit out of me, and really set the tone for the map.
The twitching impaled bodies, and some of the twitching hanging bodies, can be shot and killed/destroyed in Immoral Conduct, and you can sometimes hear them beg for mercy when you're near them.
Stuff like that, tortured captives just begging for death, that's hellish.

>>4775806
The Freedoom assets really kind of kills this screenshot.

>>4775934
It's weird how shitty they are, when it wouldn't even have taken much time to make them far better.

But the idea of freedoom isn't to be an artist resource I guess, but a modders resource.

>>4775882
I always figured it to be painted concrete.
God knows where it's from though, Doom's textures were all over the place, some were original photos/scans, some were from resource libraries, some were painted.

I really love Doom's art direction for shit like this, by the way, the graphics of the entire game feels like the efforts of a practical effects team doing a modestly budgeted horror movie in the early 90's, but putting their heart into it.

Joel.
Joel never changes.

_I_ think that John Romero is a compulsive copycat!

Think about it. Doom 2 has Romero's Industrial Zone (the only Romero's city level) almost right next to the Sandy's Downtown (ONE of Sandy's city levels). Ultimate Doom has Romero's Perfect Hatred right after McGee's Hell Beneath. Quake's last level (designed by Romero; Sandy's version from beta3 is another beast altogether) has strong overtones of Sandy's Icon of Sin, Doom2's last level. And, my God, does e1m8b reek of Mt.Erebus.

Also, Quake's Ogre Citadel is suspiciously Willits-esque (not that it's a compliment, mind you, it's very much not), Quake start map (designed by Romero) has the "hanging in air" water pool, which was "appropriated" from Sandy's Tower of Despair.

And, you know, the funniest thing. Romero said, that he only became aware of rocket jumping is Quake after the game's release. And yet, Sandy E4M4: Palace of Hate does have a secret that requires it. Here is the trick though. Beta3, that was leaked, like, two weeks before the game's release - doesn't have it. It was added at a pretty much the last moment. Either Sandy had a last-minute revelation, or he deliberately made it a last-minute edit. If it's the latter case, question arises: why? My hypothesis: to leave the other(s) no time to discover and copy it.

>>4776195
Who would've thought, he ran out of ammo.

>hide a normal door behind a key-locked door

So why not just have one door?

I feel like there needs to be a Bingo for Joels Doom streams

>>4776201
>And yet, Sandy E4M4: Palace of Hate does have a secret that requires it.
Well, actually, not the rocket jump (as the player only acquires rocket launcher in the end of E4M6), the grenade jump.

>>4776201
>Either Sandy had a last-minute revelation
WITHOUT HAVING EVER BRAGGED ABOUT IT (or else Romero would've heard about the trick before the release).

Petersen's levels are, I think, more or less about shunning away from any sort of competition, from being challenged by anybody, at all costs, through inventiveness and, thus, being incomparable to others - at least until they learn the tricks Sandy invented. Moreover, Sandy's inventions have more or less nonsensical, pointless, slightly useless quality to them in order to make sure, that nobody would be likely to even WANT to copy/plagiarize Sandy (thus becoming his direct competitor at mastery of trick's execution) thus additionally ensuring his uniqueness. It's sort of an intentional "odd duckiness" probably based upon a bleak social-darwinistic outlook on the society.

I don't hate The Pit, however, it's ok. The levels I really don't like is Factory and Catacombs, they're just so boring. Nirvana and Bloodfalls are fucking weak, too.

I wish there were more maps like Tricks & Traps, Refueling Base, Loop Of Disassembly, or Chasm, I know a lot of people don't like that one. Barrels Of Fun is neat because it has a stupid gimmick that it just rolls with, I'd have loved to see Sandy do another silly concept map like that, based on crushers and shit.

>>4775838
What enemy multiplier are you using?

>>4776652
check OP

How come Doom's aesthetic gets so ruined when you play it on resolutions higher than, say, 640x400? There's a gloomy, unsettling look to the original game which gets lost with opengl renderers and all the fancy stuff, even the shadows appear different. Do any engines try to compensate for this? I always play the episodes on Chocolate because the game just feels different, more horror-like, the invisible demons are actually hard to see, everything looks darker etc.
It's a waste that not many people experience it like that and probably jump on G/ZDOOM engines.

>>4776627
that's a good question, what the fuck IS wrong with your brain?

>>4776658
Original Doom has a thing that places further away get darkened.
GZDoom disables that, but you CAN actually enable it back

Can you suggest me a good weapon pack that switches chaingun for an assault rifle or submachinegun that packs a punch?

1:
When you're using texture packs, do you decide ahead of time what ones to use and pick them out and put them in your wad?
Or do you just load up a few texture packs into a wad, use the ones you want and then remove the unused ones at the end?
I'm considering the latter as even though the wad will balloon in size to a few dozen mb i'll be cutting all the fat later.

2:
Any texture artists want to contribute something to my project (can credit you, of course). I'm wanting one or two textures of around the Hexen type, think a fire theme on a wall texture of Korax. Then another showing ancient writing. I'm building a tomb.

>5 chaingunners hitscanning your ass from a hill you can't get to in a large room

hmm reminds me of the hell level in diablo2
The ironic part of images like this is it reminds me of how stupid the monsters are in doom.

The monsters you fight would have to be like claymation whipped-up cronies the actual demons created to go cause their damage for them while they sit back and eat popcorn. Id expect actual demons to be alot more crafty, agile, and with an entire arsenal of dark magic spells to screw with their enemies beyond just causing damage to them. Like Leprechaun stuff, turning people into human-centepedes and such or just turning them into monsters to fight for them. Things that armor cannot protect against.
Some creep like Doomguy being actually successful at chewing through the abominations would likely get one of these demons to get up off the couch and go deal with him themselves since it would be ruining their fun and possibly even turning the tide of the invasion.

Now that I'm watching the VOD I proved my theory: Joel should have had shells TO SPARE by the time the only Arch Vile appeared and he ran out.
The room before had a lot of boxes.

>>4775775
> His vision is like that of a sprawling demonic metropolis more than pure chaos, where the demon inhabitants have their own economy based off of the souls of the damned.

mfw I write a weird fetish porn comic series around this exact concept.

Why was Joel's stream so late? I had 8 hours free and he starts about the latest he has done so far.

Question: if I wanted to made a little mod that changed some DECORATE properties, would the wad just have a single DECORATE file in it and nothing else?

Ok, finished watching the VOD.
Joel evaded every room I didn't trap him into and as a result he ran out of ammo and died in silly ways.
Also I'm 99% sure he played the first revision and not the updated one since he died in the cutscene and I did fix that shit along with an unpegged door at the end.

I'll try tweeting and emailing him and if doesn't reply I'll try the Vinebooru as a last resort, I don't want to sound too desperate but also need to clarify the whole thing. Seemed like chat got the wrong idea of it.

>>4776946
Late? It was morning for me. Time Zones are fun, aren't they?

>>4776950
>Joel evaded every room I didn't trap him into and as a result he ran out of ammo and died in silly ways.

There's nothing worse than watching someone play your map and have them consistently go everywhere everywhere that's full of rape and nowhere that isn't.

Doom vacation is quite.. something

>>4776958
It was 4:45pm when he started, but by then I was preparing dinner and getting ready for dnd
I was waiting all day for that shit

>>4776946
Well he is Swedish.
I missed the stream too, does anyone know if he played "adventurehell.wad"?

>>4776967
Well, I just emailed and tweeted him about my map.
I was just about to use the booru too but people at discord told me the streamers hate it when one uses the booru to message them.

I really feel like I should clarify it's not like my map is actually 8 years old, I started from scratch when he announced the contest. 8 years ago I just made a noob room and that's it because I couldn't get into mapping.
I can't help but to think he got the worst impression of the whole map and it's background.

>>4776495
Pretty sure Tim has said he likes the idea of adding Hunter.

>>4776968
uh, wat

Well, Joel replied to my mail.
He indeed played the updated wad so surely it must've been a mistake from my part, I must've gotten mixed up the filenames when saving. Careless from me.

Presto...
Shotgun Guy who fires more realistically

TNT1 A 0 {
A_SETANGLE(4*random(-4,4));
A_CUSTOMBULLETATTACK(5.8,0,7,random(1,7),"SmoothBulletPuffShotguy",1536,CBAF_NORANDOM);
A_PLAYSOUND("Shotguy/Attack",0);
}
SPOS F 3 BRIGHT A_FACETARGET


This shotgun zombie spins around up to 16 degrees in either direction before firing, then fires a spread of 7 pellets just like the player (would be damage multiplied against monsters to do the same damage to them too). Then faces target just so it doesn't look weird.

Player would still take about 28 up close, damage would be pretty hit or miss at a distance though as he could completely miss with the blast.

>>4776695
High noon drifter

>>4776575
Doom's? That's Petersen.

>>4777052
There is a wad called Doom Vacation which is a map that is TC of a Duke Nukem Expansion pack.
Here if you touch the ladies they moan and give you ammo. In this case bananas.

Was setting the sector lighting mode removed? You know, the one I could set to 'Dark', or 'Doom'?

>>4776509
>>4776769
Oh another one would be High Noon Drifter, you get a radio pack that summons a bunch of ghost guns and they go around shooting shit up.

>>4777056
Sorry to see he sped through your map dude. I'm sure your heart sank when he died in the cutscene.

>>4777275
Kinda. You guys in these threads told me about the monsters still moving in the cutscene and indeed I fixed that, so I can only say I renamed and uploaded the wrong revision of the wad.

I know I shouldn't care about what will people I don't know say but that's a huge flaw in me.
At least I already explained Joel some things but seemed like chat really thought it was bad or something and misunderstood the 8 years thing.
I know it's not a winner by any means but I didn't want to seem THAT BAD either.

why are the textures in quake so blurry? is that just how they look or is it a postprocessing effect?

>>4777303
Type GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR in the console. Thank me later.

>>4777324
thanks, looks nice and crispy now

Why is the second half of Doom 2 so fucking boring?

>>4777326
Because there is very little that can be done to vary Doom, it is very straightforward and formulaic and only so much can be done with the default engine. The game is much longer than it should be.

>>4777328
I don't think so, there are plenty of great maps done within vanilla limits and with oldschool textures. Doom 2 just has the worst mapping, and they put all the good shit near the beginning. I love every episode in Doom 1 and nearly every level, the pistolstarts are flawlessly balanced and interesting, particularly EP2 & 3.

also if you have any vore fics ill gladly take them, something about their voice is eerily sexy

>>4776930
link pls? also if you have any vore porn i'd gladly take that. their voice is kind of eerily sexy

>>4777328
If that were the case the modding community wouldn't have existed this long, particularly vanilla maps.

This makes my penis become the big penis

Why in Doom 2016 multiplay can no play as doom man with bullet gun ?

>>4777378
Makes the penis go Quad Damage

>>4776426
The fact that Doom games even had that variety of textures and sprites reminds me of how series like Mario and Sonic had a variety of worlds, that made people think of all the cool shit you could make levels with, which is probably why Doom has so many fanmade maps
If the first Doom game had the same art direction as the reboot or Doom 3, it could have aged a lot worse if that meant levels being less colorfull or interesting

>>4775728

The problem with Agony's portrayal of Hell is that the design philosophy was to make everything everywhere you look as fucked up as possible from start to finish.

That might sound good in theory but when the entire environment is like that you have no frame of reference and there's no rising sense of tension. It's just like "Oh look it's another wall made out of mutilated corpses."

>>4777395
Doom 4 had pretty much the same level of variety (techbases and hell) as Doom 1 though

>>4775806
>40k lore
mein neger

Now that I think about it, Cadia would be a fucking amazing setting for Doom. Right on the precipice of essentially the gateway to Hell with reality twisting and distorting on a planet rendered an eternal no man's land. Doomguy with a bolter and chainsword, different types of chaos spawn to fight, ohhh man it goes together like peanut butter and chocolate.

>>4775816
Something that Demon's Crest for the SNES thought of was there being a human realm and a demon realm. The human realm is the nice dimensions where humans live short little lives, but the demon realm is where immortal ghouls and gargoyles live, and the only thing keeping the demon realm from invading the human realm is the constant infighting.

Planescape also has an awesome rendition of Hell breaching the rest of the planes of reality. The Blood War is an ongoing interdimensional war between Baator (the classic Dante's Inferno vision of Hell with highly organized and cunning demons and a strict hierarchical caste-like social structure) and the Abyss (akin to the Warp from 40k. just endless, mindless chaos, constantly intense, extreme, and ever-changing). The Blood War must continue because those two planes are by far the most powerful planes of all, and if either side ever gains the upper hand and wins, then that would mean total doom for everyone. If Baator wins, everyone's thrown into a massive cutthroat society upheld by deception and treachery, but if The Abyss wins then the entire universe would simply be fucking devoured.

I haven't seen anything like that before, a war between two Hells.

>>4777410
>(techbases and hell)
I meant how those two were portrayed, though

>>4776968

HOW DO YOU LIKE MY TAN LINES?
THESE DON'T COME CHEAP.

So are Revenants reanimated human remains, or are they their own demonic organism that just strongly resembles a human skeleton?

What's the legality on using music from the "Unreal" games?

>>4777531
Taller demons killed in the manlet uprising and brought back to live with hellish magic.

>>4777531
They're the recycled remains of anything killed on the battlefield brought into the fray using demon magic/tech
Lore-wise, they should be the reanimated amalgamations of the various monsters, basketball boneman is just what we see in-game

Here's some concept art of a revenant that appears to be a shotgun-wielding marine sporting an additional arm cannon and the iconic shoulder-mounted missile launchers

>>4777564
Where can i see more of that concept art?

Can someone show joel that video on how to use the bfg properly

>>4777568
I got if from here

Searching for more shouldn't be too hard though

>watching somebody play your map

It's like watching a child leave for their first day at school.

Anywhere I can take a peek at credits for individual Deus Ex 1 maps? Like, who exactly did rooftops, for example?

>>4777590
>someone plays your map
>they're having a hard time navigating it when you thought it was fairly obvious

>>4777605
>they only ever play on UV and then say it's too hard

>>4774989

I have a better idea

we do 32 high schools maps

>>4777612

>>4777609
That shit kinda worries me when mapping. My method of balance is to assume that the player isn't pistol starting, but if they are balance it so I have a hard time on UV when pistol starting. That way all the bases are covered.

>>4777609
Yeah I don't get this. I only play on UV but if it's too hard I just git gud. Unless it's something literally mathematically impossible or totally luck based (field run full of hitscanners) usually it's just a bad case of gitguditis.

>>4777532
If you're not selling it nobody gives a shit.

>>4777605
I know that feel. One guy made a video of how frustrating the level was laid out and couldn't seem to find the way.

>>4777636
I know nobody gives a shit, but the cosmic litigious entity guarding the IDgames archive might :(

>>4777625
>>4777628
I'm wanting to put different skill level selects into my mapset so it can put a pause on the autopilot of "gamestart - diff select - UV"

>vore porn

Yes, but not in the context you're asking for.

sheelaandcyanide.itch.io

>>4777612
I actually like this concept, but it had to be ruined by school shooters. Now you can't make a map based directly on a real building without being labled an edgy psychopath.

>>4777652
>Sheela
Shit taste.

>>4777652

So I was playing Project MSX. Sweet mod. I was at E1M2 and I was near the end. I've charged the punch at max, I jumped and punched the ground killing every enemy in the room.
That's just a beta and you can pull this shit.
