what does /vr/ think about d44m and the upcoming doom eternal?

>>6143037
>[1-18] Mars 3D re-released with a full English translation
>pay 40 dollars to get a fuckin cd through mail
is this news for real?

I just beat my first fanmade megawad, Ancient Aliens on UV.

So Graf's UMAPINFO PrBoom fork is neat, wonder if there's a way to merge it with that fork that adds voice recording capability to demos

When i get back from church im gonna download doom.WADS

He's never going to finish HDoom, is he?

Six years, senpai.

>>6143054
i hope it was pistol starts! Otherwise you did not!

>>6143076
why the fuck would you donate to this guy
hdoom is clearly a joke, even if you like porn games hdoom is not really one you can fap to

>>6143079
shut

>>6143080
says you

>>6143080
"a fool and his money are soon parted"

>>6143080
especially since it never left the "tech demo" phase

>>6143054
Congrats anon I hope your ready for more pain in the next megawad you'll play.

>>6143081
why don't you just use idkfa then there is no difference.

>>6143091
there's a big difference, you don't start a map with all six keys :^)

>>6143091
garbage meme

mancubus.. but,, with HANDS

I hate pistol starting because having to go back to the puny pistol and then go through the whole pistol -> shotgun -> chaingun -> SSG progression gets really repetitive and boring.
Quake user maps are even worse with this, almost always the exact same progression and very frequently the same "traps" (pick up nailgun and shambler spawns in, pick up explosive weapon and zombies spawn in).

>>6143113
>>6143118
why do you even play doom if you don't want it to be even a slight challenge? Why even play video games at all?

Story-wise, pistol starts only make sense in E1M1, when the manual tells that the marine assault team took all the best weapons and left Doomguy with only a pistol. Then again it's the very first map so...
Also E2M1 should be a fist start map.

>>6143125
How is playing the map the way its intended more boring than starting with a fucking SSG/plasma gun and anihilating everything in your path with what is effectively god mode.

You are the kind of person who leaves a death match server because you can't get a single frag.

So I heard you've collected a nice number of rockets?

>>6143135
if they didnt intend it to be played continuously, they shouldnt have put it into an episode

>>6143125
most maps these days pretty much start you with a shotgun though, don't they
either way, it beats walking into a map with weapons far more powerful than what the first half is balanced around, leading to you either using them whenever in a bit of trouble (trivializing the early parts of the map) or withholding from using them until you see the weapons again (making later parts significantly easier with an unexpected surplus of ammo)

>>6143146
if they didn't intend for it to be pistol start why would they place the actual weapons and not just ammo?

>>6143129
if I was looking specifically for a challenge I wouldn't look for it in one of the easiest fpses of all time. pistol start or no.

>>6143142
Kshpptchshpthchp nump

HOW THE FUCK CAN I PLAY SOME MOTHERFUCKING DOOM AND HAVE A GREAT EXPERIENCE ON MY ANDROID PLEASE HELP THANKS

>>6143154
>easiest fps of all time
when you're using save states and not pistol start yeah lmao, that's what i'm trying to say. Thank you for proving my point

I cant wait to play this map with the same weapon progression as every other fucking level in the wad.

>>6143157
by making sure to adhere to the pistol start

Is there any mod that forces pistol starts so I don't have to be inputting IDCLEV all the time?

>>6143165
no because of the baddies in this thread who will complain because then they'll have to idkfa at the beginning of every map

>>6143129
>>6143160
> posting actual retardation

>>6143160
>its hard if you adhere to these specific rules in no way enforced in the actual game
lmao

I can't wait to effortlessly blaze through this map intended for pistol starts with my super shotgun and plasma rifle.

>>6143170
mappers fault not mine. should have designed it for more than 1 style of play.

>>6143167
> policing the playstyles of others
> trying to project to anyone who disagrees
bang your head against the wall until your hear a crack

>>6143170
Boy oh boy, i cant wait to pistol some imps and zombiemen to get the shotgun. Thats true excitement.

>>6143153
They're made for continuous play but toss some guns here and there for the pistol start autists. If they're intended for pistol start then they should enforce it instead of making you manually type a cheat code on every level start.

>>6143178
>>6143174
>>6143169
>>6143168
I really don't see how you could play doom for 20+ years and still use cheats.

>>6143054
LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID
THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT

>>6143180
stop strawmanning in public

To be honest if a mapper really wants to enforce a pistol start he'll probably include a death exit in the previous map.

>>6143184
dont yell at bocchi

>>6143175
Damn I love quickly beating Hunted with my rockets and plasma!

>>6143195
I do as Hunted is a shit meme map.

>>6143202
>meme map
Opinion discarded.

>>6143203
ditto

>>6143173
the only way you're getting that is either by dumping all previous weapons on the player right at the start of the map, or making map balance throughout the episode so razor-thin that you either finish a map with barely any resources left or don't finish it at all

>>6143178
the vast majority of mappers test with pistol starts, so it would follow that they're balanced for pistol starts
continuous play is the afterthought here

Why are you even playing Doom when 99% of the usermade maps are built around pistol starts and you apparently hate those so much.

>>6143203
you have to understand the historical importance to truly appreciate Hunted. Before June 1996 no one had put a bunch of archviles in hallways before.

why are you even playing doom if youre not doing nightmare coop spawns ironman

>>6143206
or you could just make secrets actually important for pistol starters.

>>6143207
because high noon drifter is fun and many maps have really cool aesthetics i enjoy

the build launcher link leads to a chainsaw blog

>>6143184

>>6143215
wtf

Why are you even playing Doom at all?

>>6143213
But pistol starts are especially fun with HND, the revolver has great feedback and the whip is super useful.

>>6143225
but what if i don't like pistol starts?

>>6143231
Then please tell me you're at least using custom monsters.

duke nukem

>>6143234
uhh avactor has unique enemy types and makes the caco shoot a faster ball, does that count?

>>6143076
He keeps going for new projects every few months.

I used to savescum years ago, then realized it removed any challenge whatsoever and forced myself to not save. Now I have the opposite problem - saving the game doesn't cross my mind at all. This bites me in the ass on long, hard maps where I die after 15-20 minutes of play and just lose all interest in continuing.
How do I unlearn this ironmanning habit?

>>6143240
No. Go load Colourful Hell, and I hope you get bullied by black and white monsters.

>>6143246
Turn every key into the only checkpoints where you'll save.

>>6143247
nah im going to keep playing the game the way you don't want me to

>>6143250
>implying getting raped by a white archie isn't peak Doom

>tfw no crispy raven games

>>6143253
I just want to go straight to Pr+ versions of the other doom engine games, if that’s even something that would make sense

>>6143165
There's one called idclever, not sure if it's exactly what you're looking for but give it a look

>>6143221
Why are you even playing id Software games at all?

>>6143034

>>6143221
Cause as much as I love Quake, I still do enjoy coming back to Doom occasionally

God, if only someone would make Hideous Destructor for Quake, I'd play that shit for the rest of my life

>>6143246
autoautosave is your man - set it to save when you grab a key and/or every 5-10 minutes
https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=59889

>>6143045
Doom 4 was pretty decent, if a bit flawed in design. Cautiously optimistic in that Doom 5 will do the previous games weak aspects better, and be a better game altogether.

>>6143054
Congratulations. Now try out Alien Vendetta on HMP.

>>6143080
Honestly I'm just appreciating it for the endeavor and the humor of it.
If he actually showed some progress on H-Doom more than once every few years though, I might actually tip him a dollar a month.

>>6143238
"Damn"

I CAN'T FUCKING BEAT MAP23 OF SPEED OF DOOM
FUCK THAT SPIDER MASTERMIND FUCK YOU AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>6143292
Just shoot it until it's dead.

>>6143142
I find I always have enough to deal with them. With good aim you can blow up multiple.

>>6143272
>God, if only someone would make Hideous Destructor for Quake, I'd play that shit for the rest of my life

this shit right there
Hideous Quakestructor when?

>>6143157
By not playing with a touch screen.

I wish someone would make Copper but for Quake 2 (Bronze?), that game could be really great with a few but important tweaks here and there.

>>6143185
stop using words you don't understand

>>6143290
He's not a just meal he's a super size

>>6143246
none of this matters if you start each map with a bfg and plasma gun/ full backpack for ssg

>>6143272
>>6143296
Interesting. How do you imagine a more realistic approach to the Quake weapons and monsters?

>>6143304
"Those alien bastards are gonna pay for eating my ass"

>>6143308
We already have some realism with the Thunderbolt weapon,if you use it,you instantly die.

>>6143323
why did you post this, I don't care about this.

>>6143323
Thanks for posting it, the slide moving looks neat.

What's your favorite gameplay mod?

>>6143331
I dont care that you dont care.

>>6143338
complex LCA > brutal doom
you can't change my mind

>>6143045
I'm honestly worried of all the over-hype, and it probably won't live up to most people's expectations. But that recent Noclip podcast does give me some hope.
Speaking of which, some modders could take notes from that video.
>The power fantasy that you earned is far more satisfying than the power-fantasy that had been given to you.

>>6143284
>if a bit flawed in design
care to elaborate? I swear if you complain about the arena style stuff i'm going to frag u

>>6143338

Burl Tumd, Cola, MetaDoom, Samsara and Colourful Hell

>>6143308
It would take a wall of text for me to share all of my thoughts about this, but I'll just say that all of the existing game mechanics could be reworked and expanded. There is also enough room for a bunch of new mechanics that could've been added.

I really wish I was a code monkey instead of an ideas guy.

>>6143347
not him but yeah the arena style is the problem, level exploration and good item/enemy placements are just as important in an fps as the shooting

>>6143338
i gave the latest version of brutal doom a try cus i was bored and im glad i did, it actually might be my favourite now. it has improved so much and gotten rid of the stupid shit like executions

>>6143347
SSG being able to fire two fullpower shots in rapid succession+Gauss cannon siege mode and to an extent, the scope mode= not needing to use anything else is one problem

>>6143060
>voice recording capability
tell me about this

>>6143347
do it fucker i got mega and heavy

>>6143045
i think doom 4 was okay, even if a bit flawed and i expect eternal to be better in every way, but still with some flaws
both games have some good ideas but at the same time, neither feel like a total upgrade to classic doom
i put them in the same room as doom 3 in the sense they're modern iterations of a series, whose first games are otherwise a natural extension to wolfenstein 3d in a time of heavy/trash metal and satanism controversy

>>6143375
There’s a fork of PrBoom+ a guy made about a year or two ago. It allows you to record yourself talking while making a demo. I don’t know if you’re able to record a demo without audio, and then go back and dub over it so you can commentate on your gameplay after the fact, though.
I don’t believe it breaks compatibility with normal PrB+, or any other demo-friendly port, it simply doesn’t play the voiceover if it isn’t supported.

>>6143308
In addition to >>6143308 I'll say that I'd be willing to learn 3D modelling and do my best to take care of the visuals in case if someone would be insane enough to make this kind of a mod. I'm pretty experienced with Photoshop and I could work on textures and other 2D stuff.

Pic related is something that I've made a year ago for a certain podcast.

>>6143338
Does Skulldash count? If so that.

>>6143376
> rockets u into pit
your fatass wont save you now

>>6143157
Delta Touch and a controller

Gimme your nu-retro fps (Ion Fury, Dusk, Amid Evil, Shadow Warrior Reboots, Hedon etc.) rankings, and explain your reasoning.

>>6143407
Dusk is okay.

Everything else is fucking boring and shit.

>>6143407
Ion Fury is my top #1 because that shit is fiiiiiiiire, mad long too, extremely fun to see what masters of the Build engine can do with it
lots of content, i like the characters in it, really love the setting too
second is Dusk, mostly just for how cool the movement is and the very simple weapon selection
Amid Evil is really cool but it didn't do anything i like a lot, though i can't say it wasn't fun, and i like the setting a lot
the first shadow warrior reboot is fine, but the second one sucks balls due to borderlands syndrome
didn't play hedon yet :(
now that i've answered your question, you have to tell me what mod that is from, please

>>6143417
Not him but I’m pretty sure it’s from Lt. Typhon
Not my cup of tea in terms of weapons and certainly character design, but it’s also got a gondola wearing a marine helmet if you’re into that

>>6143428
>>6143417
Yeah its Lt. Typhon

>>6143389
Coming from my non-programmer perspective, it certainly does seem insane. Doom modding already comes off as a bit daunting to me, and I’ve heard that Quake is even more so. HD itself isn’t a big mod by any means, but that’s because most of what’s in the .pk7 is code that radically alters just about every aspect of the game. I couldn’t fathom implementing all of its features and maybe even more by way of QuakeC, which I’m guessing is much more involved than anything Doom has, and might be less documented considering the game’s lesser popularity.

What're some good maps to play with ZMovement?

>>6143407
Amid Evil > Wrath (tentatively) > Ion Fury > Dusk >>> Strafe and any other procgen dogshit
Amid Evil has really gorgeous visuals, solid level design, a very satisfying & balanced arsenal of weapons, and a fun tome of power ripoff. Dusk is good but the animations and sound design are kinda crappy, and the gameplay isn't quite as good as the others.
Shadow Warrior reboots arent even in the same category. They have AAA graphics and arena level design like Doom 4. The first one is pretty cool, never played the second cause I heard they turned it into looter shooter shit.

>>6143362
I'd like to see what sort of ideas you might have for a HDest version of Quake. Particularly, how you would deal with movement mechanics like jumping, bhopping, rjumping etc.

>>6143386
Interesting feature, though I'm note entirely sure who would be using it.

>>6143272
>>6143296
Then better start learning QuakeC, pals

>>6143505
I'm not sure either, but I replaced my install of 2.5.1.4 with it simply because I thought it was a neat thing to have.
My guess for its application would be that someone wants to easily spread around their demo to other demomakers with the added bonus of talking about what their thought process while playing is. It's a small file size, and you don't have to go through the process of making an account on Youtube or another video site. Also, it isn't a video anyway, just a playback of key presses, so it could be uploaded to one of those Doom demo sites for competition.

>>6143080
>>6143243
it keeps happening

who needs HDoom when Imp Encounter exists

>>6143550
Stuck up jerk!

Hexen could use some gameplay mods to be honest

>>6143407
dusk is probably at the top for me
>no hitscanners
>wannabe old looking graphics
>a lot of influence from blood
ion fury has nice weapons and sound effects
amid evil has a cool artstyle
im excited for nightmare reaper to get finished. the level design and enemies having a dreamlike or nightmarelike look to them is cool. also the game has like 80+ weapons.

>>6143556
OK seeing that google reverse image search isn't showing the sauce gonna post it myself
https://twitter.com/voidstricken/status/1218910164754919424

>>6143558
Gonna be a permanent 6 for me

>>6143407
Dusk is actually trying to have some atmosphere, its fun to play even although I dont like the excessively low poly models. Level design is solid.
Hyped as fuck for Gloomwood.
Ion Fury is just pretty and empty, fuck that game.
Amid Evil is meh, personally I dont like the visuals.
Hedon is trash. Ashes 2063 was better.

>>6143556
I've never played through Hexen much, even less so (see: never) with any mods, but simpler mods like HexArcana and Hexercise seem good. They appear to make the three arsenals feel a bit more satisfying to use, and give them neat altfires, along with little gimmicks that try and make each class more unique. But as I've said, I have no in-depth experience playing through the stock levels with them, so I wouldn't know how they hold up.

On an unrelated note, did anyone here know that Doom Connector came back, and has a bunch of new features? Apparently it has some silly whiteboard now where you can draw shit and send it to people. Gonna check that out.

Why the fuck enemies take so long to kill at Quake 1? This is boring sometimes

>>6143556
Brutal Hexen RPG is a thing.
Adds some new weapons and some new enemies animations.
It doesn't break the balance that much anyway.

>>6143556
Hexercise with a simple gore mod is enough to turn vanilla Hexen or any mod into something better.

Thanks for the anon tons of threads previously that told me so.

>>6143338
NAZIS!!, beautiful doom if you count that, highway to hell, accessories to murder

>>6143572
Shamblers take half damage from explosives.
Your shotgun is more of a pistol tier weapon than anything else.
Your supershotgun is only really viable at close range.
You get plenty of explosive ammo.
Quad Damage is fairly frequent, make sure to kill as much as possible while it lasts.

>>6143556
Hexen?

Fuck since when did we have a good fantasy fps?
Skyrim is already a decade old, I replayed Hexen 1 and 2 and Dark Messiah Hexen tons of times.

>>6143572
quit using the shotgun

>>6143581
>>6143584
I'm not a shotgun user (got hundreds of hours on Quake 3 to avoid that weapon at any Quake game). Thanks for the advice

>>6143570
Wait a second. No, DC is still dead. It got shut down again while back, probably why I just discovered its thread.

>>6143567
You know what they say...

>>6143556
Theres a recent mod called "hexarcana" that seems interesting.
>>6143582
Have you not heard of Amid Evil?

>>6143589
>>6143584
The shotguns have their place, the single barrel has long reach, tight spread, and fast firing, while the double barrel actually pounds reasonably hard up close.
You can use the super shotgun for 'bullfighting' fiends, as well as for repeatedly baiting a shambler in melee, every time they miss you, you put two shells in them. Obviously the super shotgun benefits greatly from quad.

>>6143597
I played it. It's not my thing.

Rather replay Arx.

>>6143567

>>6143556
Term's old Ranger mod is pretty neat.

>>6143605
Believe it or not,I didn't use the filters but an HD pack for Hexen.Enemies look like that but not the player sprites.
Then again I don't like it,I like them crispy.

>>6143594
All toasters,toast toast

Do you retards set out to come up with the worst opinions humanely imaginable?

>>6143618
thanks, we're here all week

>>6143613
he’d have to find a version of zdoom or gzdoom from 2011 or so, I don’t think it works on newer versions

How do you guys play your doom? I've been playing gzdoom with mouselook on and autoaim fully disabled. The ability to shoot enemies over the tops of barrels or pick off imps on ledges while ignoring pinkies down below is really great. The amount of verticality in the game shines when you have total control over where your ordinance goes.

>>6143461

>>6143618
what are "good" opinions then?

>>6143347
Arena is a huge problem lol. To add to that the areas you fight are absolutely tiny. They might seem large at a first glance and sure some of them are, but most are these tiny tiny cramped areas with multiple floors to give the illusion of size. The constant vaulting up and down breaks the flow of combat in a bad way. They realized this and made the vaulting animation cartoonishly fast. Having lots of levels to go up and down poses a new problem, enemies have to go up and down too. It becomes impossible to form a good mental map of where enemies are hanging around because they're forced to jump all over the place in order to keep up with you. So now as the player you cannot ever stop moving because something will hit you that you didn't see and had no feasible way of knowing.

This leads into the next problem, the sound design blows. Only a few enemies actually make noise, with some enemies being ear rapingly loud. Loads of encounters have a noisemaker zombie that just sits around being loud to give the illusion of chaotic combat. Some enemies have qualities that make them a higher priority in combat, because of the arena design where things continuously spawn in as you kill previous enemies this can be a huge issue if you don't see them. The summoner enemy is a great example of this, you might be running around in circles killing endless enemies without ever knowing some asshole is summoning new ones. In a different game it would make a sound when it spawned in... you know, like the original Doom games. It would also make an instantly identifiable noise when it summons new things so you know you have to look for it.

Go replay Doom4 and turn the music off. You'll quickly realize how incredibly rushed the sound design was.

Finally finished the poacher enemytypes today (as well as the basis for human enemies in general.) Tribal enemies are next.

>>6143635
Same, unless I'm deliberately going for a challenge run or having free aim completely breaks a map then I'd turn it off. It's a bit more exciting with mouselook

>>6143045
doom 4 was ok, not bad, feel it's a bit overhyped because most normans aren't used to anything that isn't just WW2/modern military
I'm very doubtful of eternal, it could be good, but the fact all we seem to see are these gimmicky gameplay mechanics and focus on bosses make me feel like it's diverging too far from what actually made the first 2 games fun, I don't believe it'll be any worse than average, just disconnected from the doom I know and love

>>6143635
i use mouse look and auto aim off in gzdoom too. i also turn the spectres to be transparent and limit the number of lost souls pain elementals spawn, because i think they are annoying.

>>6143629
I use 3.4.1 and it worked just fine when I tested it. At least, I didn't notice any issues.

>>6143347
the arenas are probably why some enemies feel like slight variations of imps/caco/arachnos
in a classic doom format of levels, the combat feels more "liberating" so enemies can represent more specific rules because not everything is tied to "run and run with projectiles everywhere", which means i expect the archvile in eternal to be a downgrade from his doom 2 incarnation
other problems of 2016 is the rpg menu thing that every aaa game has nowadays and armor being a second health bar, missing the point of armor in the first place
it'd probably make a point on whether or not some aspects of the game are enforced by the "power fantasy" or something

What if Build GDX but on your phone?

First WIP of the Hideous video, in it's current state it's 5 minutes long (and it lacks the end bit), certainly not enough to give a comprehensive view of the mod, but I think I hit most of the mayor points I wanted to cover.
I would certainly like to hear what other, more seasoned HD players think, and if I'm doing the mod justice. I should probably ask around in the discord later.

I mentioned this before but Gaming Pastime did a pretty good video about it, pretty informative if a bit dry, so I decided to slant my own video a bit more towards the entertainment angle, plus I wanted to test out a couple of new editing gimmicks I just learned.
As another anon pointed out last thread, an in-depth HD video would take anywhere from 10 minutes to 60, and there's a myriad of stuff I didn't mention, like frag, the thing would be how to go about it.

Current issues:
-The footage looks a bit weird, maybe forced resample or the fact that I rendered it at 135 mbps at true cinematic 24 FPS instead of 60
-spelled "consider" twice in one part
-the very first clip lags a bit, this is because the game was acting up while recording at the same time, I should probably record it again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94upTVYI-hA&feature=youtu.be

Also, yes, I aped the second song from that video.
I should watch pin-pong that song is sweet.

>>6143407
Enjoyed all of them, young lo wang is kino. Amid evil is probably the weakest title just because of how little content it has compared to the others but it is a fun game. Unfortunately hedon will never be as popular as the rest because of all the futa porn that the creator tried to scrub from the internet.

>>6143653
>So now as the player you cannot ever stop moving because something will hit you that you didn't see and had no feasible way of knowing.
Exactly this. Moving around is an important strat to avoid being cornered in the original, but you have to maintain an awareness of your surroundings to do it effectively or you'll end up in an even worse position than when you started. In 4, you can always keep doing loops in the arenas, so awareness isn't necessary and wouldn't help anyway since the enemies can jump around and will spawn in incrementally all over anyway. The weapons are pretty fun and offer sensible tradeoffs for the most part, but they really shat the bed when it comes to "encounter design", for a lack of a better phrase.

>>6143716
First thing I would say is move the text to the top in a smaller font. Hard to watch the gameplay when it's always obscured by very large text. Also, I assume you meant "never trust corpses", not "thrust". And yes, you should watch Ping Pong. It's Yuasa's best work.

>>6139294

Mostly, some of the Quake monsters aren't 100% functional (Dogs don't leap at you, Armagon's lasers don't bounce around, Shambler's lightning trail doesn't work online, etc.) but I'd say it's about 95% feature complete.

I kinda stopped playing Doom and modding it for the time being so I decided to just upload my dev versions instead of holding onto it indefinitely.

>>6143716
Looks pretty good, gets the point across

I'd pick less in your face music though, the buttrock in the middle and the electronica at the end are a bit distracting

Use smaller text and maybe put the text somewhere other than the centre of frame?
I feel like the floaty, jumpy sights are a big part of what makes HD so disorientating coming from regular doom, that and the ridicolous power of the enemies are hard to get a grasp of with the text overlay

Also I feel you could do more with the SWAT/Rainbow six angle, there's plenty of video of the AMERICAN NINJAS on youtube you could meme with, very authentically 90's, very stupid and fragile looking

Noted, change the text, maybe add a semitransparent strip under it like in the quake video. Also a note on how you can disable most of the wobbliness of the sights.

I'd prefer to keep the music though, the first track is from Restrepo and I feel like it fits the military theme well, the second track is just plain cool, maybe I could lower the audio levels a little.

>>6143347
Arens themselves are fine. d44m's problem is that there are basically only arenas, and they're generally pretty small as well. Thankfully, from what's been shown and said, Eternal looks like it'll change things up a little.

>>6143859
honestly just having some spooky monster enemies added to arma 3 + ACE would do the job, the russian stalker mods already add mutants to the game but none of them work with dynamic recon ops.

>>6143880
>the russian stalker mods
go on

>>6143653
The verticallity was actually handled really well. They deliberately designed arenas around your jump height so jumps could be made without grappling, but grappling was there to soften the blow if you didn't get the jump right. Everything else is true though. The arenas were way too small, and it was a mistake to use them for every encounter. And every encounter in them being the same "doors are locked until you kill enough lol" got really old. A little bit of variety in the pretense of why you had to be stuck in an arena would have gone a long way. And the sound design outside of the music and some choice effects is really bad. Thankfully most of the faults seem to be from the fact that d44m had a horrific development cycle and now that they know what works and what doesn't and what people want, they seem to be really keen on correcting a lot of d44m's blatant shortcomings. Some technical lead at iD publicly said eternal is the best game they've ever made, and Hugo said in a recent interview that eternal shits on d44m so much that he literally can't play it anymore. And some leaker said the other day it was delayed, in large part, just so it could be polished for several months because Zenimax is concerned about the change in perception of the Bethesda brand and wants the launch to go as well as possible. So it'll be interesting to see how it turns out. Remember to never pre-order a video game, though.

>>6143887
hopefully all this speculation is for naught and the game turns out to be great, but that could only happen in a perfect world
they really seem to be amping everything up just to give people "more," but really, only time will tell

>>6143882
they have ported anomalies, multiple maps, guns/clothing, and the mutants into arma 3, and because its arma 3 they are just as janky as normal stalker. The problem is its all in russian and doesn't work with any of the really great dynamic arma 3 scenarios because the faction lists aren't formatted properly and they have shitty gatekeeping drm on the files.

>>6143894
its not just this mod either, there are dozens of them and even detailed individual anomaly mods. Arma 3 is the perfect game for ultra realistic skinwalker hunting its just nobody has done it yet.

>>6143716
You want some footage of high-end ass kicking to show how far a player can come from the slow and scared beginnings? I could record something if you want.

>>6143930
This is my favourite way to play hd, I never really liked having to pop berserks and spam explosives just to survive areas.

>>6143887
>change in perception of the Bethesda brand

Now they are worried? Fucking assholes. I look back with nostalgia to fucking skyrim, at least the lore was intact unlike ESO, and with mods you could make it decent.

I am glad 76 was such a shit show it might force them to do something.
Then again Hugo calling then game mass market and junk food really makes me feel even if they are trying to do their best, it's not a passion project.

>>6143930
Is that you, Eric? I assume at least because of the the mapset.

I was just thinking about asking if I could borrow some footage for the YT channel, but if you can record something and avoid the weird bitrate issues GZDoom seems to have sometimes I would love to include some smooth operator footage in there.
Good HD players are a joy to watch.

>>6143635
Crispy Doom. I like playing very vanilla.

>>6143937
You can take some footage from my uploaded videos if you want, but it's all kind of old at this point. Game's changed a lot since I recorded even the BTSX E1 video set to Like a Dance. I'd prefer to record something fresh. Up to you though.

>>6143054
good shit anon, what did you think of it?

>>6143343
hands down, lca and clusterfuck are far more involved and interesting to play than brootal doom

>>6143076
Somebody told me a guy managed to get both broken kills in a map recorded and after he did it he said something like "if I fucking die now I'm just gonna delete my channel. I'm gonna do a full Hdoom playthrough and let youtube nuke everything". I thought that was funny.

oop here come the frag shards

>>6143945
Yeah, new footage seems like a good idea, In any case I have to thank you in advance man.

>>6143964
haha that's funny dude I love it when the baron dies and releases fart energy which resurrects half of the map I spent 20 minutes clearing lol

>>6143971
that's why you painstakingly chainsaw every corpse and haul them in a corner somewhere
and then archie happens
because of course

>>6143978
I must admit that it's highly cathartic to see stray frag energy attempt to resurrect a gibbed zombie only for it to fail in a shower of blood. take that fucker

>>6143123
>Frankly even simple pinkies that suddenly can't be easily immobilized by chainsaw or chaingun attacks would still affect the game considerably.
Pinkies with low pain chance definitely would be more threatening than ones with high pain chance, but that wouldn't change the fact that they're health is low enough for two shotgun blasts or even a berserk fist. They'd still have to rely on numbers to be an actual major threat.

>You're really selling the importance of pain chance low
I never said it wasn't important. I even brought up the Arch-vile because it's very important in that case. I was mainly pointing out that the Baron's attack isn't very threatening in most situations, making their high pain chance only relevant in specific uses. And I was specifically targeting the Baron because they're the only monster in Doom 1 that has a low pain chance that appears semi-frequently.

>>6143292
git gud, skellie

>>6143982
True. At the end of the day, it's all a mix of different traits that give a monster it's niche, which a good mapper should be able to capitalize on, be it giving a cyberdemon architecture to maximize the danger of their explosions, dark areas for specters, or yes, enclosed spaces for hell nobles. I just don't like the whole "lol just a big imp" comparison, because I think it sells short one of those traits.

We should make a community mapset for Hideous Destructor, considering it's very specialized gameplay that works best with maps designed around it.
Thoughts?

>>6144086
it's hard to get together for /vr/ community projects as is, making a pack of maps for a mod of all things, especially as one as polarizing as HD, would be nigh impossible
that being said, you could maybe try your luck on the official HDest Discord and see if anyone is interested, or you could just make a single map and post it here for others to play, hoping that it would loose people's creative juices

see
better depth with a few difference toned textures
next up is some more decorative textures. more solid bits and stuff...

>>6143934
They acknowledge they're trying to make a videogame and not some bottom of the barrel milsim, I don't see the issue. Not sure how that translates to them not caring.

>>6143568
>Hyped as fuck for Gloomwood.
Ditto. I would like it to have slightly better set decoration and animations, tho.
I get that it's not super important to the gameplay, but it would be nice.

>>6144108
I think one anon once did a map for HD, called "Hideous Distraction" or something like that.

Choose any other mod and you would have my attention.

Give me the honest truth on Brutal Doom.
Why do so many people love it? Why does /vr/ hate it?

>>6144207
>Why does /vr/ hate it?
It's not just /vr/. Doomworld pretty much hates it too. And the creator is even banned on zdoom forums.

>>6144228
>the creator is even banned on zdoom forums
Wait, seriously? Even the "No." chicken banned him?

>>6144228
Well theres a difference between hating BD and hating the developer. Its not like they banned him for his mod being too shitty.

>>6144207
>why do so many people like it
gives doom a breath of fresh air, was many people's first introduction to gameplay mods and gore is satisfying
>why does /vr/ hate it
a combination of "popular and new thing bad" contrarianism, spaghetti code with unused stuff that bogs down the game and the creator doing autistic shit like considering using digitized real-life gore for it.

>>6144207
BD's main pull really was being a modern enough twist on a classic to pull in the casuals. It could be considered a 'gateway mod'. Regarding hate, this is where you have to make sure that you're actually talking about the actual mod, SgtMark, or the fanbase it has.

>>6144236
Well yeah, he wasnt banned for the mod itself. But there are people who don't like him or his mod because of what he did that got him banned, which was encouraging (jokingly or not) a suicidal person to off themselves.

>>6143058
don't do this, it makes mustard gas

>>6144268
That's literally the kind of thing 4chan loves. So we would we hate him?

So how do you get hideous destructor working for multiplayer? Once I managed to get it working with gzdoom's peer-to-peer setup but after a while it would always be out of sync no matter how many times we restarted. I think we were using something like Radmin VPN to simulate a virtual network.

>>6144207
Regarding the dislike for it, for me personally it is to do with the imbalance and sequence breaking it causes.
Headshots make short work of every enemy and they’re easy to pull off consistent because most monsters aren’t jittery.
The BFG ball was changed to do AOE damage which discourages close quarters combat and reinforces the misinterpretation of how it really works.
Monsters can walk up steps higher than 24 units which means they have more freedom than most map authors intended.
Not really Brutals fault but jump is enabled by default which again naive players may exploit. Similarly it’s hard to put any blame on Brutal but its annoying that it so harshly overshadows other mods.
Influenced the faux-aggressive gameplay style of Doom4.

>>6143887
Here's a thing I've been saying for a while, including here:
Doom/Quake/Duke and other oldschool shooters have exploration of the level being main means of progression through said level. You are not told what to do, and have several options of where to go and you have to explore the level. Some times you have to backtrack, and as you progress the level offers more areas for exploration.
Enemies and traps are there to make expploration harder and engaging with them is entertaining, but mostly optional if you are good enough.

Doom '16 for the most part follows a different formula, where exploration is not part of the equation at all, and fights with enemies are the main course, and arena fights are the main means of progression. It only introduces some basic nonlinearity and some basic exploration in 3 levels out of 13.
In that it is similar to Painkiller and Serious Sam.

Secret areas do not count for this since level progression is not tied to them while the opposite may be true.

FPS loses quite a lot of its appeal to me when it gets rid of that exploratory element, which is what modern shooters do - cinematic ones lead you from setpiece to setpiece, and in open-world ones exploration is rudimentary, extremely repetitive, and ironically, not the main means of progression.
Those shooters basically throw away one of the key components that made shooters so good in the first place.

>>6144398
He probably means the knee wound from one of the textures, but that would be extremely silly.

>>6144451
>Kill niggers, kikes and trannies
Wow what John Romero meant by this.

>>6144207
>why people like it
It makes enemies react to player actions (i.e. shootgin them with different weapons in different ways) a visceral satisfying reaction.

>why people hate it
Usually hate comes from people who understand what ELSE BD does to the game and how it does it. Or those who had encounters with the rabid fanbase (more on it later)

It uses very inefficient way to achieve hitboxes, that results in ~2 ators being spawned for every enemy on the map 10-15 times per second. Not that bad on small/vanilla maps, heavily bogs down modern maps.Results are buggy and glitchy, plus the code itself is a horrid unoptimised mess. Thing is, better ways exist, but they require math and someone to rewrite literally all of BD. Mark is unwilling to do so, and people that would've been able to put in time and effort would rather put those time and effort into their own projects.

It wrecks balance to hell. People who aren't privy into nuances of vanilla design and didnt play user maps that rely on such design are unlikely to understand what the fuss is about, but experienced players see it immediately.

There are numerous bugs that went unfixed for many years and will not be fixed ever, since the mod is not considered "finished". I can list some, but that'd be a long list.

Mark himself was a massive cunt through out the history of BD, including stealing of assets, and when asked tocredit shit making a credit txt where he just lists everything as "Made by SgtMark". Even in current version he "credits" people whose assets he's taken (and some of whom explicitly told him to not use them) as "contributors" implying that they provided their assets to his mod on their own.

Fanbase side: Imagine MLP-faggotry at its worst, with newcomers attempting to spread their newly acquired cancer to completely unwilling and uninterested people. Now add in same new-fans demanding from artists to draw their crappy fetishes and throwing fits when they are not catered to. This is essentially what happens in Doom community every once in a while after major BD releases. The wave of newcomers try to spread the word of "new amazing BD" as if nobody has ever heard of it, outright demand BD-compatibility from authors of other mods (in 99% cases is completely impossible since diffeent mods cant modify same actor - only the last modification of the actor counts, and BD modifies everything in one way or the other), throw fits at every opportunity, brigade down on anything negative said about BD, and overal being toxic to everyone around them. All this ever does is multiply resentment towards Mark and his infamous mod.

So anyone who comes in and asks for "unsolicited opinions on BD" (like you and those like you do every few threads) looks to us like analogue of an mlp fag, just as annoying and unwelcome.

Young adult who didnt grow up with the classics here, how should i go about rectifying that myself? Got Shadow Warrior Classic, Redneck Rampage Collection, Duke Nukem 3D Atomic, Blood Fresh Supply, Outlaws, Unreal, Hexen, Quake, SW Dark Forces and Serious Sam First Encounter on a big buying spree, which one should i tackle first?

aside from Croteam (Serious Sam) none of the original creators will get those money, anon

otherwise this >>6144495

If you don't care for /vr/ boundaries, add other Unreal and Q3 engine games to that list, including Return to Castle Wolfenstein, wich is in my opinion the last mainstream FPS with some oldschool DNA left in it.
Also Wheel of Time if you like Heretic/Hexen and Unreal.
Jedi Outcast/Academy while not strictly FPS are quite good and follow most of the oldschool FPS principles.

>>6144505
>aside from Croteam (Serious Sam) none of the original creators will get those money, anon

Got most of them on GOG just for convenience
What is the release order, then? Just know Serious Sam is the last (because it looks nicer)? What about DLCs, are some not recommended? I wont dab much into modding at first

>>6144509
googling each one will give you their release date so you can write it down in a text editor or something for future reference
I wouldn't say expansion packs are absolutely necessary, but if you really like a game that happens to have any, then play them, but if you just want to move on to the next game then that's fine
that said, some expansions blow ass
Duke3D has some real stinkers, some don't like RTNP for Unreal, and one of the Quake expacs (the one with lava nailguns) isn't as good as the other.

'particle' particles, or actor (sprite) particles?
the latter is more taxing on the hardware, and transparent stuff close to the screen are always even more so

You could tell he wanted to make something for Thief. Dusk already had Thief references.

The idea itself of a survival horror shooter looks promising. But its too early to tell.

>>6144737
It is. It has a great atmosphere.

>>6144742
Doom came out in late 1993, and editing utilities didn't exactly grow on trees (the software iD made the levels on was written in NEXSTeP, so it's not like they could just give that to people, it'd be useless), so what crude level editors and node builders which were available in 1994 had a lot of limitations (DeepSea was shareware, you could only use so many linedefs/sectors in your map before it told you to buy the registered version). In particular, many nodebuilders were garbage, they had really shitty margins, the map could come out all fucked up if nodes were too close or linedefs were too close, there's lots of stuff we take for granted today with the reliability and userfriendliness of Doom Builder and modern nodebuilders.
>draw up map
>save it
>put nodebuilder to work
>takes 4 hours
>oops the nodebuilder derped and now your map is fucked up
You don't get that today.

So the tools weren't really all that there yet, but also people were still experimenting a lot with what worked and what didn't. Remember, there wasn't really any big scene anywhere for people to make their own worlds for a full fledged 3D action game like this, this was really new ground still.
If you look at Memento Mori, that was a big deal at the time, but if you play it now, you'll notice a lot of the maps are actually pretty garbage, but by the standards of the time this was considered to be decent, mind they actually rejected submissions for not being up to their par, which should tell you a lot. Memento Mori 2 came out just 7 months later but the people involved were way more experienced and had way better ideas.

>>6144815
I know, it's bullshit as fuck, particularly with the even later levels, but he did pull through.

>>6144831
I meant engine particles, not sprite particle effects.

>>6144742
Most 1994 pwads are literally "myfirst.wad". Doesn't help that level editors back then weren't nearly as easy or intuitive to use as doom builder (which didnt come around until 2003).

>>6143949
I thought it was excellent, loved the almost puzzle-like quality of the tougher encounters, I'm surprised you can get so much out of Doom's enemy and weapon mechanics.
>>6144787
Sorry.

>>6144841
>If you look at Memento Mori, that was a big deal at the time, but if you play it now, you'll notice a lot of the maps are actually pretty garbage
I think its mostly on-par with TNT, personally. Some decent-good stuff, with some meh-bad stuff. I think MM1's bad maps are probably a tad more noticeable than TNTs, because they're more spread-out, where as TNT mainly has them in the final third with Metal being an outlier.

>>6144886
I pretty much agree. Though I find TNT has a more cohesive 'style' and atmosphere to it, in spite of not really aiming for that.
I like TNT a lot, but it has its weak sides.

>>6144848
>>6144841
well that explained a lot of things
at least galaxia has a nice music

>>6144893
Yeah, the only thing that really tied everything together in the MMs was the texture set and music, I'd say. There wasnt any real "episode" structure to them.

Yes; seeing as the building isn't entirely inside it's going to have some shading things going on.
This is the closest I can get to an actual employer; and even this is a bitch considering I need to mock up some movement; I don't want them to be fully static; and all that has to be done by scripts; but I am clueless retard at decorate+scripting so that's a nightmare outta my wheelhouse.

>>6145026
I think it's funnier that way; as if the demons just scrawled it onto the blade after reading it as if it was some sort of historic text of a warrior akin to the doomguy, not knowing it's just a shitpost

I want us to do another group quake mapping project like HUH

grezzo 2 doesn't fit my screen

>>6143504
I might as well use pastebin, because there is a fuckton of ideas on my mind. Also, it's kinda funny that you've mentioned movement system, since it is actually number 1 on my list of things that I'd work on.

Wish those actually existed. Rainbow Six has become a parody.

I guess shit like insurgency.

>>6144928
well the animation is good, even great at points
but it stinks so much of fanfic shit jesus

In the meantime I'm messing around with the text.
Does this look good or should I remove the strip?

Checked out a gameplay mod called Slayer's Rampage and it has a textbook example of my complaint with gameplay.
It has a minigun with a primary fire that starts shooting right away but is kind of slow and an alt fire where it has to spool up but is way faster. Sounds nice and all, but it also has a heavy machine gun that uses the same ammo plus it has an underbarrel rocket launcher for the alt fire. There's practically no reason to not use the machine gun over the minigun, especially since the mod's shotgun comes with an underbarrel grenade launcher that uses the same ammo for the rocket launcher, meaning any shotgunner I kill is more ammo for the rocket launcher.

>>6145126
Should I feel bad that I also use Vegas, and even bought a legit, legal copy off of a Black Friday sale?

>>6144283
They never did this, short of Kevin Cloud scraping his knee on the way to work and going "Hey, this could be a texture!"

>>6144353
It was 1993, immature 20 year olds calling each other fags wasn't exactly out of the ordinary. Hell, on 4chan fag is practically an honorific, a term of endearment at times.

>>6144519
Citation, also considering that it's a literal glob of slime/goo, it wouldn't necessarily be out of place. Perhaps the Spawn consists of a kind of tar.

>>6145126
Id say the strip Makes it easier to read the text
so keep it

Just beat Heretic.
It was pretty good.

>>6145134
I pirated it, and let me tell you the fucker is freezing like crazy during playback and I just added a couple of transparent black bars under text. Good thing I save often.

Too bad shit's inflated to hell in here and I can't upgrade my hardware without sacrificing my firstborn to satan.

>>6145228
I'm a fan, generally.

Though I don't like all the super fancy visuals. The plasma and void projectiles, tracers on all ballistic weapons. Some of that stuff just doesn't look good.

Nash gore plus hand.wad would be my ideal way of playing vanilla if the weapon sound effects were louder and if he'd done the ssg too. Is there a mod to adjust the volume of individual sound effects?

>>6143034
Would you guys be cool if i share a guide on how to do some good Metallic texture to sprites?

>>6145228
I like slide kicking dudes so it's alright with me

>>6145330
You didnt say no homo to that...

I know why the wasd/mouselook/strafelord faggots hate Sigil. Because they are forced to play the game the way it was created back in 1993.

Romero knows his shit more than these Sunlust faggots think.

>>6143045
I actually liked Doom 4, if only they dropped the doors locking, enemies spawn, doors unlock when you defeat them in an arena kind of level design and the maps were a bit more open with enemies roaming around, it would be pretty much perfect in my eyes. I don't even wish the levels were more maze like than in the old games because I realize that shit wouldn't fly today.

>>6145336
>I know why the wasd/mouselook/strafelord faggots hate Sigil

>I don't even wish the levels were more maze like than in the old games because I realize that shit wouldn't fly today.

Why not? I dont particularly like just nonsense design ( unless it serves a purpose like in Thief missions), but more believable, build like big levels would be great.

fuck demons

>>6145356
Don't get me wrong, I would love big levels as well, it's just that it's not realistic because they need to account for console limitations, and also today's gamers who are the majority of the purchasing power don't like getting lost exploring big levels, they just want to shoot at the bad guys.

Memory limitations are getting fixed sort off, finally in this gen and especially next gen.

We already had 10 years of hampered games.

So now is the time.

Just played Doom for the first time, having not played any older shooters before. It was actually really fun. Looking forward to playing more.

isn't he unbanned in doomworld?
i remember him saying he liked the new doom movie
>>6144207
badly designed and coded, despite its popularity
but most criticisms on its actual flaws were hidden under less interesting takes, whether it's jealousy, purists or forum drama, anything that works as an arguement of the mod being grap was barely heard
brutal doom's popularity makes more sense considering the state of the doom series, modern first person shooters and how doom's identity was almost modified by memes and pop culture
it's probably why decino's content is popular, because when a series is taken at surface value, stuff they should have known about the games feels like a secret to them
so many misconceptions and rumors exist about doom, even those that complain about them are responsible by some of it

>>6145407
switch to a weapon

>>6145425
Decino is popular because he makes in depth content and has a consistent work ethic.
I learned how the BFG works from term but Decino actually shows you the code, Id say thats his appeal.

>>6145442
wad where doomguy is replaced with murray when?

>>6145425
>isn't he unbanned in doomworld
Doomworld is the only Doom-oriented place he isn't banned, but any time he tried his usual shit, ity got quickly thrown straight into post hell (when it was still a thing), so he quickly miograted to his fecesbook, and only occasionally shows up on DW.

>>6145438
That's true, but I also think anon is right in that there's people who's looking for content about just the original game like that.

>>6145291
I'm not a texture/sprite artist but sure

>>6145291
You can't make a flat surface look like metal by itself. To make something look like metal you need a structure and a (implied) light source, and then adjust your shades and highlights. If you know blender, use the principled bsdf shader with metallicness set to 0 or max on various random objects with the camera at various angles to get a sense of how the light works on metallic and non-metallic surfaces.

>>6145291
why not?

To what keys to you map the strafe buttons? i am the kind of person who doesnt use mouse on DOOM and merely use arrow keys,space,ctrl and number to swap weapons

Do you do a level from start to finish without saving or save along as you progress?

>>6145653
I try to play from start to finish with no saves, but sometimes a level is just way too long or I'm sick of constantly retrying to I'll save before a trap I already know is there. It's all arbitrary, but I try not to make more than 1 save per level.

Serious question, how is emulation not considered retro on this board, but modern source ports for doom are considered retro.

How do I control yellow and mega on aero

>>6145675
Arbitrary rules made by stubborn bastards

>>6145675
Stupidity, that's how.

>>6145675
I guess it's because source ports use the source code of the original game, hence the name
