TO SUBMIT NEWS, REPLY TO THIS POST.

Problem with settings like cyberpunk and Wild West is coming up with projectile enemies.

>>6384356
How is cyberpunk not projectile-friendly?

>>6384357
How it is? Everyone is using firearms. All I could come up is throwable shit and stuff like rockets, but you can't arm every enemy with rocket launcher.

>>6384356
>cyberpunk
Just give everyone slow moving neon colored projectiles and say "it's lasers/plasma/magic space goo".

>>6384359
Oh, you mean non-hitscan. I'm stupid.
In cyberpunk it could be energy weapon or tiny missiles. I was always fond of small rockets as futuristic guns.

>>6384362
But this is a way of a faggot.

This is either the best or the worst thing I've done in my short mapping career.

>>6384356
Dynamite, old timey cannonballs, nades, arrows, sling shots, thrown rocks, rolling barrels of gunpowder, anything throwable (bottles, rocks, sticks)... That's all I got for the western theme atm...

Is Doom's BSP faster than Build's portals?

How you doin today DOOM bros? Hopefully this one won't be as hostile as the last thread.

>>6384397
Tomahawks

>>6384403
That's a good one, actually. Also seminal fluid.

>>6384397
Don't forget hand-cranked gatling guns if you want automatics.

>>6384359
Flame thrower, slow laser that bounces, retractable rocket arms, homing drones, electric bolas... Thrown Land mines... I dunno. Chaff grenades?

>>6384395
Great idea, would be even better if some enemies would constantly spawn into the big empty center area while this thing is activated.

>>6384402
Making a new Doom 64 map

>>6384359
>>6384362
Oh yeah. Space goo a-la Unreal isn't bad.
>>6384415
He's looking for non hitscan
Whips maybe.

>>6384418
Oh, you could then make them fast projectiles? Low velocity bullets and all.

>>6384417
>Making a new Doom 64 map
Based, make sure to keep us updated

>>6384424
Fast projectiles are no cure-all. Seems to me they require careful use, otherwise they may end up being worse than hitscanners.

>>6384356
>>6384359
Play Ion Fury. Its cyberpunk and only 2 of the enemies are hitscan. The only obstacle is your creativity.

Imagine being one of those Cuckodemons that goes down after just two super shotgun blasts from the humans. Don't get me wrong, three ain't much better... but two? Pathetic.

>>6384356
>wild west
Guy with revolver.
Guy with shotgun.
Guy with rifle.
Guy with revolver or rifle who shoots fast.
Guy who throws dynamite.
Guy who throws knives.
Guy who throws axes.
Guy who throws molotovs.
Guy who fires a cannon.
Guy who fires a Gatling gun or other manual machinegun.
Wild animals.

>>6384418
Well make the bullets physical projectiles maybe.

>>6384453
Don't bully the Cacodemons.

>>6384440
Well, they don't have to be THAT fast.

>>6384453
I don't think I've played doom deathmatch in decades. How many hits does it take to kill a hyoomahn?

>>6384550
One good hit

>>6384480
Try to stop me. It's not like it's bullying, anyway. I'm just stating facts: Cacs are Whack.

I feel like making detours that don't bring you closer to the exit somehow is a waste of time. But lots of people seem to like them. And then there's Wormhole.

What's your take?

QUICK, WITHOUT LOOKING UP ON WIKI: What's the mancubus firing sequence?

>>6384576
People want that 100%

>>6384583
Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Start

>>6384576
Why would a level need to be linear? This is an FPS, not a beat 'em up.

>>6384576
They make the map less linear and add replayability, especially if they provide a new way to enter an area or a battle. Bonus areas can also be a way to reward the player with some good items for exploring the level.

>>6384590
Sorry, but we're on Nightmare mode.

>>6384338
What's going on with the Firestorm in Hexen? It just feels like a weaker and more expensive Hammer of Retribution. Even waiting for the main flame to deal as much damage as possible, it still feels a lot weaker, especially against flying enemies.

>>6384576

Different strokes for different folks and all but the idea of not enjoying exploration at all has always been completely foreign to me.

There's plenty of maps out there that are way too fuckhuge for their own good but in my mind a map should provide at least some sense of adventure as long as it's done tastefully and doesn't cause the map to overstay its welcome

>>6384594
Alternate paths are great. I was specifically referring to just dead ends.

>>6384563
>Cacs are Whack
Cringe

>>6383926
UV continuous with gameplay mods, saving often in case it crashes or I want to test something. Pistol start and switch mods on death.

God why is it so hard to me to calculate where a single skin patch ends.

>>6384563
Top Cac

What's even the poiint of health and armor bonuses, aside from leaving breadcrumb trails for stupid players?

Does this look weird to you? I want to put spiral staircase here with some cool texture for central pillar, but can't quite settle.

>>6384767
Make the metal beams bigger and stand out more literally. Maybe add a few more metal beams.

>>6384480
bully the cacodemons

>>6384762
Being a bonus for your health and your armor. One may not seem significant, but they tend to appear in groups of several, and multiple groups over a level, and it adds up.

>>636384576
Many classic Doom 1 maps are full of areas that serve no purpose beyond exploring and maybe gaining items. This is good because it makes finding the actual way forward feel more satisfying, and also increases replayability.

>>6384617
I dont know what you want us to tell you. Theres no secret trick that makes it better.
I guess the main benefit compared to the hammer is that its near-hitscan speed. Which makes fighting the wyvern much simpler.

>>6384767
Looks alright, maybe make the steel pillars more prominent

>>6384686
Not a fan of the voice.

>>6384768
>>6384809
How about this? (The small rim rises up to reveal the staircase after switching a particular switch)

>>6384834
That looks a lot better.

Friendly reminder that this general is the most brotherly, kindhearted general, not only on 4Chan, but quite possibly all chans.
I love, respect, and cherish every single one of you.

>>6384784
I just want it to be good since it's such a cool weapon.

What the hell ZIMMER textures even supposed to be?

This is dumb, right?

>>6384872
Well even if it is ammo-inefficient, the original levels give you more mana than youll ever need (including kraters of might), so dont worry about it too much.

>>6384810
Would be better if they made it a lot deeper, like the voices in the game. Even if they aren't actually duskdude's.

>>6384834

Anything with a pillar or wall made of bloody skulls is automatically a masterpiece.

>>6384917
looks fine to me, kinda unique

Is smooth doom a legit way to play? Does it modify the gameplay in any way?

>>6384917
Looks kind of unusual I guess. If you made sure to make it part of a piece of something that's supposed to be a construct, rather than natural rock caves, potentially it could end up looking good.

>>6384940
I think the only thing it does is re-balance enemies, but that can be turned off in the mod's menu. Been using it for a while now and I don't really have any big complaints, it's a solid mod.

>>6384917
It does look a bit goofy to me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JJu-CTDLoc

>>6384834

Looks fuckin great anon

>>6384762

Are you this guy

>>6384576

>>6384885
ZIMMER1, ZIMMER2, ZIMMER3 and ZIMMER4 seem to be some form of stucco types or those concrete surfaces that get treated with some form of comb before hardening to get that pattern. ZIMMER5 and ZIMMER7 seem to be lumpy and veiny stucco types, or maybe natural occurring stone surfaces. ZIMMER8 looks like it was taken from a rock texture with some parts being boosted in contrast, giving it a layered and lumpy appearance.

Who knows. Zimmer means room in German, especially those rooms in dwellings.

Can you save Romero?
https://youtu.be/AcDjY9lwXSw

>>6384885
>>6384968
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zimmerit

>>6384576
I think linearity can be ok, but I personally enjoy exploring a lot, therefore I love branching paths and secrets, and secrets within secrets.

>>6384975
Huh. That's incredibly fascinating, I had never heard about that before.

>>6384975
I know, but it doesn't make sense for the other textures with the name. Besides that you can form any wall covering into that pattern, but mostly stucco and some putties.

>>6384968
>Zimmer means room in German
Hans Room
George Roomman

>>6384975
>>6384990
Makes no sense in context of the game.

>>6384395
You might want to spawn in some enemies outside of the raised platforms to stop the player from passively camping behind one of the pillars from the start of the video. It still looks better than any map I've made.

>>6385020
I dunno, four out of seven do kinda look like Zimmerit. It's not like the names of other textures make more sense. Though someone should probably try making sector Tiger out of it.

>>6385035
Yes, I will place some enemies in this whole hall. I might also swap hell knights for revernants. That's just a test for how monsters would handle this sort of thing.

Also, show your maps.

HDoom makes it too easy to trigger a sex scene and makes them lose all value because of it.

>>6385071
>HDoom
I'd rather seek for some R34 of Doom

>>6384356
well there's always the option of having some magical enemies to shoot fireballs and such

>>6385094
I think the spritework is pretty good, it just lacks in execution.

I hope it's clear enough that you are supposed to jump out of this window. If not because you saw what happened to Arch-vile standing there, then because platform below seems close enough.

>>6385097
It needs full custom levels or at least level reskinners to give a full eroscape, also maybe some additional options, lesbian options, other kinks (all with a system of permissions the player can activate)

What's your most anticipated upcoming WAD?

>>6385129
BTSX E3

>>6385129
Plutonia 3

>>6385138
By 2030 we'll have Plutonia 3.

>>6385105
For us, yes. However, merely by looking at the window from this perspective, I could imagine some people finding it difficult to figure out what to do. Try lowering the bottom part a little bit perhaps?

>>6385105
Move the bottom of the window down just a little to make it clear

>>6385129
TNT2

Shamelessly reposting my 12gig Doompack.

Contains most wads mentioned in Cacowards, including Top 100 wads list, and a whole bunch of other wads. All playtested to be at least be playable, for every wad I've made screenshots and installed patches if those were needed.
Some old wads might still have dehacked problems, so you might want to play Compendium terawad if you'll encounter any problems.
Favorites list is subjective and incomplete.

>>6385058
I made Exotic Exports a year and a half ago (it's in the news archive): https://www.dropbox.com/s/rtv23e9k4c9g462/Exotic%20Exports%201.2.zip?dl=0

Outside of some rather basic test maps, I haven't completed one map since then. I've tried to make a bunch of other map concepts, but I've either lost motivation or I've had problems that I couldn't resolve on them. For example, I tried interpreting the fleshship that was described in TNT's story, but it ended up being more undetailed flesh than ship and the layout was really wonky too. I think I was trying to make it similar in map style to Halo 3's Cortana level, but I found that I couldn't properly do stuff like catwalks without room-over-room (it was in Boom format). Another map I tried to to do was called Retirement Grease (pic related) that was built around barrels, but the encounters were so poorly space out that placing barrels were hyper lethal...to the player.

Actually, looking back at some of my oldest shit, a lot of my maps played very similarly and no matter how I planned them, they almost always ended up having similar features; they start out linearly, then an optional room with extra stuff for the player, then the rest of the map played mostly linearly and ended quickly. For a while, I couldn't figure out how it always ended up the same, but eventually I figured out what was subtly influencing me, with its familiar drum and base.

D_RUNNIN.

I never replaced the music.

>>6384338
Crispy Doom would be the best source port in existence if only it supported Boom format and had an OpenGL rendering option.

PRBoom+ lacks so many little QoL things that CrispyDoom has, it's infuriating that it has ceased development.

Is Doom Retro the promised land?

Is HL1 (not source) still worth playing?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEBRs63mbTE

>>6385287
You should give it a try, only for its historic value if nothing else. But who knows, you might end up liking it. It's not a bad game, but certainly not everyone's cup of <insert your favorite beverage>.

>>6384356
why not fantasy wild west?
it's not like wolfenstein doesn't have nazi robots or weird shit, just because it's world war 2 themed

Why didn't you fiends tell me Quake 1.5 added Guardians from Quake II but more Quake 1ified? This shit is fucking cool. The extra gore ain't nothing to sneeze at either.

>>6385287
Of course. Source version was never worth playing.

What "complevel" does Crispy Doom default to? Does it automatically apply -gameversion Doom 1.9 (-complevel 2 in PRB+) to WADs using Doom 2 as the IWAD? Does it switch to UltimateDoom/FinalDoom compat (-complevel 3 and 4 respectively in PRB+) accordingly depending on the IWAD? Or does it have some sort of generic compat setting when you don't specify -gameversion ?

>>6384583
Left, right, center?

>>6385284
I hear Graf is working on some sort of fully fledged "GzBoom", which is supposed to include a number of quality of life upgrades, including MAPINFO support and some things from Crispy.

>>6385321
Is he going to make sure it keeps all the accuracy and demo playback compatibility? Because if not, straight into the trash it goes

>>6385321
Will it run on my IBM Summit, or I better start saving up for some upgrade?

Should I be worried about this being bypassable by running fast? I tried running fast into it and didn't teleport.

yeay

yeay

>>6385284
I was with you until you said it needs an OpenGL renderer.

>>6385338
OPTION, anon. Option.
I use software renderer most of the time, but sometimes I like OpenGL's features on certain maps.

>>6385334
no, that's only an issue with thing collisions

>>6385305
Because that isn't a Quake 0.015 thing. That's the Eddie from the Quoth mod/devkit.

>>6384781
there's a fine line between complex areas that reward exploration/knowing maps well and being a shitty maze

desu most of episodes 2 and 3 of Doom 1 fall on the shitty side of that line

>>6385350
Potato, potahto. j/k gonna look into this quoth thing thanks.

>>6385309
I assume it uses the same logic as Chocolate Doom which determines the gameversion based on the iwad if it isn't explicitly provided.

>>6385357
>Potato, potahto.
There's a pretty fucking big difference. For one, Quoth isn't a piece of shit cobbled together by a moron to appeal solely to the Burtal Dumb audience.

>>6385325
yes, that was one of the things he was mindful of back when he started discussing this in the UMAPINFO thread

>>6384576
Dead-end detours are fine, as long as the player is properly rewarded for spending the time and effort to explore them. That said, I think it's good practice to then provide a shortcut back to the main area/s.

Why does Duke 3D on DOS feel so terrible to play? The mouse controls are sluggish compared to Doom.

>>6385406
Shouldn't be, I played it on an actual DOS machine not so long ago. What's your setup?

>>6385406
Probably because it's on a shitty engine.

>>6385409
gottem

>>6385398
Wrong quote
>>6384946

>>6385406
I dont remember the exact details but its something to do with x & y inputs not being updated at the same time. Theres a dos program called bmouse that modifies this.

>>6385325
It would be weird if it didn't, because demo compat is one of the big selling points of PrBoom.
Personally, I hope he adds brightmap support.

>>6384762
Picking up a bunch of them gives me the happy feelings.

Does anyone else feel like the NoChickenMan has too much authority in the Doom and even retroFPS community now with Raze?

It seems like he's a prolific programmer, which is great, but with really terrible opinions, which is bad.

>>6384762
they have this role of either being useless or usefull because of how they function

>>6385431
Not like anyone cares about what he has to say.

Damn, how are you supposed to fight the motherdemon in Doom 64, I googled that you can get keys slash powerups for the Unmaker in the secret levels, but I didn't have any of them. Feels like the thing always perfectly bounces me off the ground before I can hoof it to the powerup in the center and the missiles home too tightly to juke and are nearly impossible to outrun. Is it just impossible to do?

I already managed to win the fight but was curious as to how other people do it

How's QC:DE? Is the multiplayer active?

>>6384762
if I ever map again I'll make a sequel to Base Stimpack where the only health pickups are heath and armor bonuses, but they'll be everywhere and also stacked in huge amounts so you'll see one on a pillar after a big fight as a rewards and think 'gee, thanks' and in actually it's 200 health / armor

>>6385408
>>6385423
>>6385406
The answer is
>>6385409
To elaborate. Duke Nukem 3D updates internally at a rather low tick rate, including mouse motions. Even at the maximum effective frame rate of 120 FPS, you are effectively playing a game at less than 30 FPS.

>>6385510
hahahaha

How can I make Crispy allow me to strafe with the right click button? I can have it like this on PRBoom and I'll be in strafe-mode for as long as I hold it, but on Crispy if I bind M2 to Strafe through the setup, it doesn't behave like this.

>>6385406
>>6385518
If a game is not very fun to play in it's original form, but is great in a source port that fixes issues, but otherwise remains faithful, is it a good or bad game?

>>6385537
>Duke
>great in a source port
??

>>6385537
It is fun even in DOS. Do you think the millions of people that bought it back in the day didnt actually have fun? You people that act like a game is unplayable if it doesnt have perfect modern controls are so annoying.

>>6385537
depends if you played it while growing up or not!

>>6385552
See >>6385553

Anyone hear anything about Maximum Action?

>>6385552
I mean it's still enjoyable in DOS form, but the technical bugs and aiming problems really hamper it going back today. Even Doom DOS and Chocolate Doom is still very playable today if you can get used to the keyboard controls.

>>6384583
Left right left, I think.

>>6385559
I hear it's not retro.

look it's okay for you to say something like that but you gotta elaborate on that position

I'm having some trouble with crispy doom. no matter how high i crank up the volume, the sound effects are muffled buried under the music (GUS emulation). Strangely, this DOESN'T happen in chocolate doom, where the sound effects are nice and loud, despite using the exact same GUS emulation. Anyone know a fix? I can make a video showing off what I mean if that helps

Not a single day goes without me wanting to strangle Sandy's pathetic slim neck.

Have you guys seen the Shadow Warrior TC for GZDoom? Not sure if it's still being worked on, but it's absolutely amazing. Lots of fun to play.

Gotta praise him for single-handedly making Doom 2 a bad game. Pretty impressive.

thanks to the anons who got into my shit over it on the last map, I've got my current one crispy compatible, which took some serious asspain because I'd been using flats everywhere, but I think I ended up tightening up a lot of elements as a consequence

>>6385827
Why would anyone play with crispy when you can just use the superior GZDoom?

>>6385503
What mod is this, or is it just a skin? Where can I grab it?

>>6385563
>if you can get used to the keyboard controls
You do realize you can play both DOS and Chocolate Doom with a mouse, right?

>>6385918
Yeah, but I found it to be better with keyboard controls. Maybe I'm a weirdo, but either way, my point still stands that vanilla Doom has aged much better functionally than Douk.

>>6385369
he's right tho

>"Brutal Doom is the only way to play Doom, it's like id intended"
I know it's a strawmen, but occasionally I hear from people who are like this, and it pisses me off every time

>>6385960
Just counter with this.

What's the best soundfont to use with BTSX? Been using the SC-55 one by EmperorGrieferus but it sounds kinda off.

>>6385960
I mean Romero himself was kinda neutral to it, he called it hilarious, but the exact intent wasnt clear

>>6385960
The trick is to ignore them. There will always be people with stupid takes.
I recently seen someone shit talk Hideous Destructor as "The intellectual brutal doom", he was bitching about how apparently everyone wants compatibility with Hideous Destructor now.

>>6385968
I mean I prefer D4T myself but that doesnt mean I think it's the only way to play

>>6385965
get the remastered soundtrack
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFwHx0UrKdM

>>6385973
It isn't bad, far from it, but I think it's too different from how the original sounds. I'm playing BTSX for the first time and I want to stick as close to the original as possible.

It's also outdated and missing one song from the latest release afaik.

>>6385965
That's the one I used. Sounded fine to me.

But you're supposed to use the default soundfont. Either Fluidsynth or the Microsoft GS Wavetable one.

>>6385817
Praise Romero's lazy ass for that.

>>6385965
>EmperorGrieferus sounds kinda off
Which BTSX maps exactly? They all sounded good to me

>>6386000
>>6386034
By off I meant more a not close to what I can hear in esselfortium's and jimmy's bandcamp.

>>6385968
>everyone wants compatibility with Hideous Destructor now.
I have never seen anything like this. The download page of the mod explicitly states that a majority of usermaps become unwinnable, and gives a link to maps that people have reported to beat.
The worst I've seen regarding HD is when someone criticizes it, and the response is the classic "git gud." I guess it's like Brutal in this regard that some of it's fans don't like criticism. But the mod is an acquired taste, a majority of people are ambivalent at best, and most of its fans are a small group who hang out in a Discord and schedule co-op runs.

Feels like barely anyone talks about it

Why would anyone use universal gibs instead of nashgore?

The "not very fun" in this context only relevant in perspective of having source port that fixes all the minor issues
So in essence:
Original - already fun, but some things could be improved
Source port - improves those things

>>6386212
But dos/chocolate doom is still pretty much playable and the way a lot of people choose to play? The same can't be said about build games.

>>6385679

>>6386214
The biggest issue with vanilla Build, the mouse problems, can be resolved without a source port. And if Build games had vanilla-accurate ports, they would be perfectly fine. The BMOUSE fix would be integrated like how Chocolate Doom integrates NOVERT.

>>6385960
>>6385967
The quote about how BD would've "changed the industry" comes from IGN video interview
What Romero really said back then was that had the Doom was released back in '93 as Brutal Doom it (direct quote) "would've destroyed the game industry"
From the rest of conversation it's clear that he meant that "violent videogames makes our childeren into killers" panic would've went through the roof, the game giving enough ammo to the proponents of the idea to pressure the government into banning any depiction of violence in all videogames forever, or at least put heavy censorship on the industry.
But again, both wikipedia and doom.wikia.com are written by brutalbabbies and gamejournos so they can interpret things only one way, and erroneously misquote the sources (and get pissy when you try to correct them).

>>6385424
>Personally, I hope he adds brightmap support.
Eh. I'd prefer not, myself.

>>6386162
lol close but no cigar mate.

>>6386160
I'd argue that it "looks better" considering 90 or so percent of the default gibs are from the new Nashgore (permission was asked for and given). You're probably right about the customizability. Most of whatever addons I make tend to have an assload of options (because someone will inevitably ask for those anyway), which isn't always a good thing, as you can end up spending more time in the menu than actually playing. It's a double-edged sword. As for modularity, not sure how Nashgore fares in that department. Can't comment on that. UG is certainly more interfaceable, as the the gib spawning function has recently been exposed as a virtual function that can be overridden in a separate addon file using a handler inheriting from the main one. That's about all of it, though. It all boils down to personal taste. If you like Blood 2 or Shogo's gib physics, UG is probably what I'd recommend. If you want vanilla-styled gibbing, Nashgore is what you want. The two are hardly comparable. Plus, UG (unintentionally) works with other gib mods if you're using the right settings, meaning you can load both if you're bonkers and desire mega overkill. Whatever floats your boat.

>>6386163
So is Nashgore, although it might require some compat patches for some mods.

>>6386257
Now give me your rake on bolognese.

>>6385431
I actually would argue the doom community has thankfully not allowed him to have too much authority. GZDoom may be a very popular source port (especially among casual fans), but Chocolate/Crispy and PrBoom+ have all proven to be popular among the community as well.
I'd even say that ZDoom was a much more dominant force in the community back in the 00's than GZDoom is currently.

Since this comes up in every thread: Build has nothing to do with input. It's MACT that does input handling. Therefore, bMouse is not going to work in games that are not using it: namely everything apart from Duke3D (plus games derived from its code like RR), Blood and SW.

>>6386260
Had to download it since I haven't really played with it for longer than 10 seconds.

>Poor in customizability, from what I see.
I guess that's fine with most people who download it because of its simplicity. Not everyone is autistic enough to want fuck around with settings for half an hour.

>Doesn't work with Hideous Destructor, despite being universal.
Although that automatically bumps it down a notch in my personal list of preferred gore mods, this isn't inherently Bolognese's fault. The ballistics refactor in HD broke UG as well (I did fix it though) because enemies who die from regular ballistic damage don't go below 0 health. Not to mention the usage of +NOEXTREMEDEATH puff flags. The rest of the time Bolognese works with other mods from what I've tested.

>Getting haunted by NOBLOCKMAP monsters that cannot die.
This was a bug a while ago that people complained about. Might have been only with some mods. Seems to be fixed now, or at least I can't reproduce it by normal means. Mentioning it because it might not be permanently fixed. That, or the fix for it introduces more bugs, which isn't that unlikely.

>Hacks.
When an enemy dies and is gibbed, a corpse and gibs are spawned. The original enemy itself's scale is set to 0.001 and its NOTARGET flag is set to "true". Problem is, NOTARGET doesn't prevent friendly monsters from targeting enemies. If a friendly archvile is present, it can and will resurrect the monster without resetting the scale, leaving it practically invisible. Annoying, since you can bump into it or god forbid it intercepts a rocket that you just fired, making it explode right in your face.

Overall I can't say I don't like it because I used to play the fuck out of Ketchup years ago when it was the only "tiny monster go big splat lmao" mod. Nashgore was too tame for me. Still is, to be honest, but that's just me. Nowadays it's only a viable solution if you like to keep things simple and don't mind the occasional performance drop.

John Romero's about to make you his bitch (again)

>>6386370
Additionally, gibbed enemies resurrected by an ACS script will suffer the same invisibility problem, so it's not limited to just friendly archviles.

The biggest problem with unpatched duke3d.exe is that only one mouse axis can be updated at the same time, causing erratic mouse behavior (only if using mouselook, as non-mouselook is horizontal axis only). The best way to fix this nowadays for DOS is not bMouse but BuildMouseFix 1.1 by CHEATER, it applies the fix to the executable directly and thus becomes portable. Another big issue in DOS Duke that's not yet fixed by fixes mentioned above, is that there is a certain threshold needed to get the mousecursor to move at all. You can notice this when moving the mouse slowly, in-game the mousecursor will not move at all until you reach more speed

>>6386401

Because the game was actually designed around the use of mouselook (hence the tall buildings and flying enemies), unlike Doom?

Nope, that means the game was designed around the use of the jetpack. Hence why they're scattered everywhere. You wouldn't see nothing of those "tall buildings" with the limited vertical aiming range anyway.

No, Build is not duke3d.exe, but the mouse issue is prevalent in the “big three” Build games, so that’s probably what they mean

What I’m wondering is why you sidestepped the guy who complained about the mouse feeling like shit twice, and responded to me with “no wonder vertical aiming is unpolished compared to Doom that doesn’t even have it” like that means anything
the text file that comes with bmouse says that the fix was incredibly easy, and commenting out a few lines of code and recompiling the source is all that it could’ve took for diagonal mouse aiming to not feel atrocious

>>6386592
you’re right, it’s not

>>6386602
Do you even read these threads on a daily basis?

>>6386598
>commenting out a few lines of code and recompiling the source is all that it could’ve took
During the DOS years, nobody complained. I can't recall any reviews reporting any mouse sensitivity issues. Neither it happens on real hardware. How it behaves in NTVDM or Dosbox is not the developers' fault.

>>6386613
Yes, and I believe my impudent response is correct
Vanilla maps are still the most popular things to make, and you’re paranoid about an autistic kraut becoming some sort of “retro shooter overlord” because he makes source ports

>>6386620
>During the DOS years, nobody complained.
Nobody complained about Shadow Warrior’s railgun not lining up with the crosshair, or Quake’s crosshair not even being centered properly, because these are subtle things that actually require people to use their eyes and go deeper than “the game is fun and good and cool graphics”
>I can’t recall any reviews reporting any mouse sensitivity issues
see above, but replace people with game reviewers
>Neither it happens on real hardware.
If you have period-accurate hardware and are able to run the game, I’d like to see a recording of you making diagonal movements so I can determine if this is true

>>6386642
> or Quake’s crosshair not even being centered properly
Quake's crosshair is just the plus sign from the console font file overlaid on the middle of the screen, and nothing in the game fires 100% accurately other than rockets and super nails, the former of which isn't a big deal if it's slightly off and the latter which fires so many rounds it doesn't matter.

Nope. Maps take up the majority of wads that get made, and most of them are still at least compatible with PrBoom+ or Crispy Doom, with a fair amount also being fully Vanilla compatible. Maps that outright require GZDoom are in the minority.

Man, btsx e2's hub map is so cool. I love that you can see glimpses of other levels in it. map26 towers being most notable, alongside the back of the map06 start building, the map17 tower, the sun roof of the final area of map22, the windows of the starting area of map25, probably some I've even missed. It just really ties the wad together.

You guys are missing the point.
Yes, vertical aiming is fucked in Duke, but since the game can be played without mouselook like Doom to a certain degree, it's not really a persistent problem.

What really ruins it is the suboptimal handling of even horizontal aiming. Since the player orientation is updated at a rather low tick rate, frame rates higher than this interpolate between updates, causing the sluggish feeling.
I believe Ken's Build ran at 40Hz, while Duke 3D ran even lower. Combined with the lack of Vsync and hard FPS caps, it's one big mess of bad input response times.

When you pick up a new megawaad, do you first play through it vanilla or just dive right in with gameplay mods?

>>6386857
>Gameplay mods are universally bad

>>6386857
>Universally bad
Sure there are bad gameplay mods which unbalance the maps but there also good ones which make a different experience.

Of course never go for the first time playing a wad without vanilla.

>tfw zmovement doesnt work with a certain mod/megawad

>>6386830
playing gameplay mods before vanilla is like putting seasonings on food without even tasting it.

As I said before, Doom needs fast, low-health melee enemy.

I've seen plenty of hack-and-slash TCs on Zdoom forum, but haven't tried them, so I can't say much about them.

>>6387083
Seconding GMOTA. And not to make it a pissing contest since I know the GMOTA dev lurks here pretty regularly, but compared to Demonsteele? GMOTA is damn near a full game unto itself. Demonsteele has a lot of balance issues I could write essays about.

>>6386830
I don't really play with gameplay mods very often.

>>6387093
It's kinda unfair to compare them, since Demonsteele was abandoned long time ago, while GMOTA is actively developed (well, sort of - Kegan alternates between working on his mods).

So I picked up Doom again for the first time in about 20 years, and I haven't made a map since the mid 90s. I picked up Brutal Doom and Doom Builder, Having the in-editor 3D viewer makes it a lot easier than using DEU.

I'd like to make the maps look like BD with the map enhancement (breakable glass, more debris, etc) but I can't seem to find the new items that were added. I've seen references to DECORATE scripts but I'm not having much luck deciphering most of it.

I'll give this a shot. Most of what I liked about BD was the extra sprites and debris, keeps the levels from feeling so barren. I've gotten pretty far with this map, its playable at least. I still have a lot of texture work and detail to finish up.

>>6386884
Man, the art of Chasm The Rift is actually really well-done. Shame about the gameplay.

This shit still takes forever. I'm getting better/faster at it but man, I'm surprised anyone has the patience to do all this kind of shit, especially the megawads.

>>6385683
Its fun and surprisingly accurate. I dont really understand the purpose though. I can already enjoy the original levels with modern resolution in Shadow Warrior Redux. It would be more interesting if he made new levels. Besides, he couldn't possibly recreate all the original levels since GZDoom can't pull off moving sectors like Build (even with polyobjects).

>>6385238

It's not letting me download the google drive link man, I think its doing that thing where it blocks you from downloading if too many users access it at once.....

Do you think E2M9 can be called a proto-slaughtermap? It doesn't have much in the way of level design, it's mostly a pure fight against a sizable amount of demon meat. If Plutonia's MAP32 is a grandfather of slaughtermaps, E2M9 is like a neanderthal in that regard.

>>6384834
The stairs need to be less than half as wide; they look wider than the pillar itself. Add a fence around the skulls to make it look like that's how the skulls are contained. Add a second fence around the stairs to keep the player from falling off. Add fence posts for every stair or every 2nd or 3rd stair.

>>6385284
>Crispy Doom would be the best source port in existence if only it supported Boom format and had an OpenGL rendering option.

DR doesn't support demo recording or playback, and it doesn't support brightmaps like Crispy Doom.

>>6385406
Slightly unrelated, but since you're already playing DOS, turn off the vertical mouse look and play the game with autoaim like people did when the game first game out. I still remember having to press Page Up to shoot at certain switches.
For example, check out this classic run. It's probably the comfiest Duke Nukem run on youtube:

I bet you are male and homo.

Is Brutal Doom any good?

>>6387361
No.

>>6387361
Yes, it's the way Doom was meant to be played. Even Romero agrees. Don't let the jealous anons in this thread tell you otherwise.

>>6387362
What did you dislike about it, out of curiosity?

>>6387364
Who're they jealous of?

>>6387365
It takes no skill and makes the game playable for Brazilian twelve year olds who play Doom on their android phones.

>>6387347
They post on occasion. I don't think we should encourage tripfagging outside of necessary contexts though (developments and publishing).

>>6387358

Dumbass.

>>6387361
It's ok, but I think there's much better stuff out there.

>>6387370
Sgt mark for achieving so much and becoming the face of the doom community, obviously.

>>6387365
Sergent Mark IV has too much visibility for stealing work from others. And she is into gore stuff and he's a douchebug, because he got banned all over the places.

>>6387364
You are just delusional or trolling. You need to get out.

>>6387375
>face of the doom community
More like its butt.

>Even Romero agrees
Where? Source on this please.

>>6387378
>You are just delusional or trolling. You need to get out.
i dunno Anon, I believe him. He seems pretty trustworthy to me.

>>6387378
>And she is into gore stuff and he's a douchebug, because he got banned all over the places.
Is he transsexual? Is that why you keep shifting pronouns? I don't understand.....

>>6387347
I just checked her twitter and she's writing smut live on twitch.

I think we're good without her.

>>6387235
Fug. Here's a reupload

If they don't bring it here, I don't care. You should know how many people in the community are secret freaks.

>>6387086

such as?

>>6387407
Inquisitor 3D?

>>6387404
>You should know how many people in the community are secret freaks
Source on that? Legit question.
>>6387407
Lurk more. Not only here.

>>6387404
I go to evening services, Anon. Speak for yourself.

>>6387412
I'm not gonna betray the trust of people I know, some which are friends. If they keep it to themselves and don't take it right here or other venues which are supposed to be only about Doom, I don't care, and I don't think anyone else should care.

>>6387412
>Source on that?
I once successfully masturbated in an outhouse during hurricane.

>>6387157
It aged really well in terms of models and animations and really fit with Doom aesthetic.
But as you said,the level design sucks.
Play it with Doom and becomes arguably better than Quake.
The models look wonderful and apparently Zrift isn't over yet which will have some new weapon skins for the Ranger and Marine classes.

>>6387420
That's not being a freak, that's being a chad.

>>6387347
Not anymore but still working on low poly 3D art.

>>6387413
lol

>>6387421

>>6387415
You are anonymous here.
>>6387425
Sure. Whatever.

>>6387394
That's one comfy nano setup, though.

>>6387280
>DR doesn't support demo recording or playback
Then what the fuck's the point
I assume this means it's not even accurate then

>>6387421
>>6387429
does ZRift do locational dismemberment same way original does?

>>6387429

>>6387434
I'm surprised she uses nano and not a comfy custom vim or emacs setup

>>6387280
>>6387436
DoomRetro serves no actual purpose. It doesen't do anything that isn't done better somewhere else.
It is a personal project of some programmer that he embelishes with the bells and whistles he wants.
But then he started shilling it on every corner for some reason

>>6387432
I am, and I'd like to remain as such. As said, I'm not looking to betray anyone's trust, that way they won't betray mine, further I like not making enemies, especially not of friends.

All I'm saying is, don't expect people to not be degenerates or perverts.

>>6387441
Because she/he is not a freak shut in, maybe.

>>6387438
Unfortunately no.
But the creator said there will be a lot of new stuff for the next update.

>>6387451
Anon you're hurting me

>>6387447
Fabian Sanglard or whoever?

Are there any tutorials on how to make textures for Doom, preferably from photos? I know how to make an image seamless, but by simply downsizing, palettizing and importing it into the game will just feel out of place, no matter what, even if the colors are right. The original Doom textures look like they are photos, renders and pixel art at the same time (even though it's proven that most of them are based on photos). In Raven's games, they are even more beautiful, like they are painted or something. What's the workflow behind them?

>>6387456
Fabien Sanglard is the guy who does those writeups about game engines.

>>6387451
Sh-Shut it.

>>6387461
Could've sworn he had some connection to Doom Retro....Either as a major contributor or as the author or something......

>>6387467
Crispy Doom's author's name is Fabian, maybe you're getting that confused?

Is there a source port that can do 1080p without modifying the renderer in any way?

>>6387484
I liked Heretic much better than Doom.

>>6387484

>>6387429
Ha, did this guy have that trident symbol in the original game? Thats a pretty direct Heretic reference.

>>6387459
First you need to use a good downscaling algorithm. Bicubic sharper in PS is really nice. Then for the palettization, I suspect you'll get way better results if you try to limit and tweak the color range with some hue, saturation, contrast etc adjustment layers first, so everything is somewhat close to the target palette before it's crushed down.

>>6387280
>The stairs need to be less than half as wide; they look wider than the pillar itself.
Oh matey, just wait until you see my final staircase.

>>6387161
Could be worse
Could be building in something like goldsrc

>>6387509
Looked up and apparently they don't.
I guess the creator of the mod changed their appearance just for it.

What are the best fluidsynth settings for a SC-55 soundfont? Should I keep reverb and chorus on or off?

>>6387151
You might be looking for one of the WADs made by Doomkid, since he likes putting Zappa references in his maps.

>>6387580
Entirely up to you anon. Do you like reverb? Use reverb. Do you not? Don't.

Chorus is borked and doesn't do anything I think.

>>6387556
This is awesome. I'd love to play a chasm-themed map with those weapons and enemies. They'd mix well with Hexen 2 models too I think

>>6387587
Chorus works here. It gives an extra "oomf" but it tends to kinda distort the song.

Agitating Skeletons are being extra agitating. Their fire rate suffers because of inconsistent line of sight, but you can never relax because who knows from which side those bastards show up.

>>6387347
>she

>>6387594
Scythe 2 and Doom 64 Consolation Prize are good options for it.
On YT there are videos of people playing it and a lot of the maps are cool.

There's also dark texture low res and Darkdoom for a more creepy vibe.
The Retroshader it comes with also helps for a more classic look.

>>6387347
I don't know anything about this Marisa person but if they name themselves after a touhou character it is most certainly not a "she"

>>6387642
Come to think of it UAC Ultra works as well.

After finishing Quake's expansions, I feel like I have a lot more respect for the game now. I'm glad I played them.
That being said should I play Arcane Dimensions now, or should I move onto Quake 2?

>>6387490
Same
I liked the levels much more
They felt less abstract, and like the designers had much better idea of what things are supposed to be.
In retrospect, I think that mapping conventions of Heretic are much closer to modern mapping than to what id did.

Why are you all so mean to Marisa? She's just a computer witch catgirl touhou-kin girl (male) and there's nothing wrong with it!

>>6387668

>>6387404
>You should know how many people in the community are secret freaks.

I learned from Rottking to wear my sins on my sleeve.

>>6384686
I wish more people played this. I never see anyone playing it on doomseeker.

>>6387671
I love Rottking, but what he doesn't know won't hurt him.

>>6384686
>>6387675
It's an excellent mod but people seem to like something more mindless.
That's a shame,it's really a work of love and is by far better than the source material.

>>6387365

>>6387662
Arcane Dimensions is a million times better than Q2
