wand starts are cool

Thanks to whoever was talking about Sonic Mayhem’s Quake 1 tracks, I forgot about them and dug around my hard drive for a listen

I'm using lots of pipes in my levels, and I wonder if there's a better texture for them.

So, uh... I guess I'll be going back to Sigil.

>>6423953
Since last thread I've been compiling a list of prominent WAD authors (mappers, not so much gameplay-mods) to keep an eye on, and these are the names I came up with. Already had some feedback last thread

Any suggestions to add to this list?

>>6424303
anotak

>>6424314
But anotak doesn't really map, he just did lilith.pk3 and like one other thing. Like I said, I was thinking of people that have a good number of maps under their belt instead of a one-off

>>6424303
me ;)

>>6424303
I want to say floatRand because I love Disjunction, but I'm not sure if he's done other noteworthy mapsets beyond that one.

>>6424335
I've heard some people here and there praise Disjunction, I haven't played it yet. What do you like about it?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBYwVXkNWBc

>>6424327
ok anon i added you
can you link some of your wads pls

>>6424372
myhouse.wad

>>6424376
i can't click on your link anon, it does nothing

The seething is palpable.
>>6423171

Maybe it's my memory being mistaken but isn't Doomguy supposed to make an evil laugh when he picks up certain weapons and items? Like a "heh hehhhh" sound. I played Doom I and II recently plus some wads and then I remembered that sound being present in previous runs. I'm playing on GZ Doom if that makes any difference.

>>6424418
no, that's heretic that does that

>>6424418
That's probably from a mod of some sort.

>>6424418
Not that I'm aware? All he does is this evil grin when he picks up weapons.

>>6424302
Lemme guess, using some ancient unfinished port? Just play on dosbox or SW Classic Redux.

>>6424303
Dannebubinga. He was the co-author of Sunlust and Italo Doom with Ribbiks, and also made the Combat Shock wads.
Darkwave0000. Co-authored Speed of Doom with joshy. Guest mapped for joshy's Resurgence.

>>6424418
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMekeLAQBHE
There's a taunt from zandronum / skulltag that sounds like that. Always thought it sounded really stupid.

>>6424424
>>6424426
>>6424427
Was it like in a Doom mod or some other thing? Even if that wasn't the case, I somehow remember the evil chuckle sound effect from somewhere. And I don't mean Heretic because I'm aware of that one, it was something with Doom aesthetics.

>>6424439
Oh, it was probably because I was using Zandronum a long time ago, but now I'm using GZDoom.

>>6424452
You're probably thinking of an old taunt sound from Skulltag/Zandronum, as posted here >>6424439
Though I disagree with that other anon, I think it's one of the best sounds to come from this dumb community. That and the old freedoom gib sound

>>6424452
Thought this was an ass from the thumbnail.

Sound thing reminds me back a couple decades ago when I'd play Doom on one my the fire station's computers at dad's work. One day he brings in D! Zone and one of the maps replaced enemy grunts with spoken lines like "I can see you." This scared the shit out of me because it loaded those sound files for the entire wad list you made and I had no idea what was going on while dozens of sergeants and zombiemen shouted they could see me and were coming for me.

Thank you for reading my blog

>>6424036

>>6424463
I remember an old 90's wad where the zombies would scream "MY NUTS" when they died.

>>6424459
>old freedoom gib sound
Do you have a link for that? I'd like to hear it.

>>6424505
I do.

>>6424556
>>6424563
Honestly not as bad as expected. Except the monster sprites which are much worse.

How would I go about making a music pack with midi format?

>>6424596

You drop them into a wad with something like SLADE.

>joe-ilya
Has he improved over the years? I remember he used to be infamous for shitting out maps everyday for any open project he could find.

What is the difference between "Episode 1 ILs" and "Episode 1" in DSDA when looking at Ultimate Doom demos? It seems like it would be the same thing, but they show different lists.

There's also "D2All" and "Movie" for Doom2 stuff. They seem to be synonyms though, since they show the same list.

>>6424745
Episode 1 is the entire episode, episode 1 ILs are (i)ndividual (l)evels from episode 1.

>>6424751
Oh, so like just on a per map basis, pistol starting? Why even have that category then? Why not just go to the category for each individual map you want to see and download its demo? Is it so that people can download demo packs from one person to analyze for the collection of maps?

>>6424757
It's a meta-category. "Episode 1" contains all the demos in E1M1, E1M2, ... E1M9.

>>6424757
It's just if you'd prefer to see all the demos for an episode rather than go to an individual page for each one. Possibly to make scraping more convenient for people doing that. There's no real difference between going to Episode 1 and downloading and E1M1 demo than just going to the E1M1 page and downloading that demo from there.

Is DSDA the "archive of record" for lack of a better term, or is that compte-n or cndoom?

>>6424036
Idi nahuj to you too.

>Open up FreeDoom and FreeDoom2 in SLADE
>Delete all of the monster sprites and sounds
>Delete the ugly status bar, font, and mugshot
>Basically only leave the maps and the textures untouched

Huh. It's actually...playable now. I feel like I can now enjoy these maps on their own merits and not have the view tarnished by...well...everything else. Now it's like just another PWAD.

>>6424901
Is the bottom one from the reboot from a few years ago?

>>6423953
going back in time to delete the doom 64 chainsaw sound

Would it be better to reveal the monsters while this platform is like this or when you come back and floor raised by 64 units?

Seems like the first option offers an interesting choice between clearing them now or later when they are free-roaming, but I'm not sure.

>>6424983
Yes. It looks like garbage.

Is unreal gold an inferior version of the game?

Why is mouse sensitivity do weird in the doom 64 port? It either feels too fast or too slow regardless of what I do, I'm never comfortable with it.

>>6425064
No as far as I'm aware, why would you think that? Either way you should apply the oldunreal patch after installation https://www.oldunreal.com/downloads.html

>>6425017
>interesting choice
What's so interesting about it? How is it even a choice? What possible benefit is there to not clearing them as soon as you see them?

>>6425081
Well, maybe not that interesting, but you might want to have them spread out or go collect more ammo in a different room.

>>6425080
Ok thanks. A lot of 20 plus year old games have steam versions with missing music tracks etc

>>6425085
Having enemies spread out is literally never a good idea. Ammo depends on whether you are ammo starved at that point or not and don't know when/where is the next ammo pickup, but that only applies to first runs.

>>6425113
Yes, I'm probably overthinking it. It makes much more sense for monster to raise from the pit right next to you when you are all on the same level.

>>6425081
If monsters are trapped on an isolated raised platform then there is no benefit to killing them unless they are in a position to constantly barrage you. The revenants in doom2 map12 are a good example because they're easy to ignore for the majority of the map.

Greetings, everyone.

>>6425162
>because they're easy to ignore for the majority of the map
Yes but since anon has already explained the gist of how his map works we know that this is not the case with his map, ergo there's no point in letting them live if they're just gonna be a bigger nuisance down the road.

I'm just gonna say it. Fuck jannies, and FUCK refueling base.

>>6424556
Freedoomguy is a pretty swell character.

>>6424605
Finally a mod to rival 4x4 Minecraft texture packs in playability over remote desktop!

>>6425204
But that's the best map in Doom 2 anon, what the hell

>>6424556
I use Freedoom as IWAD in my project. I like its textures, and all the enemies and weapons will be custom anyway (though I will use serpentipede and flesh worm, which are the only two monsters with good sprites in the game).

>>6425241
Is that a hard requirement or will it work "good enough" with an iD WAD (and therefore imps and pinkies) as well?

>>6425262
Not him but the whole point of freedoom is being drop-in compatible with vanilla doom iwads, so you should be able to swap back and forth.

>>6425262
Hard requirement, unfortunately (it is even automatically selected by GAMEINFO lump). Freedoom has many extra textures (Plutonia and TNT ones, I was told, but I'm pretty sure there are more than that). Imps and pinkies would not fit with the theme anyway.

Do you like the gothic texture set?

>>6425291
A bit too brown for my taste, but the pic looks nice.

>>6425291
It's difficult to see when it is all brown.

>>6425293
That's the Mallard Effect.

>>6424901
I did this once, just to find out I can't save changes to IWADs. I should have just copy-pasted my end result into a new WAD file to save it. I copy-pasted the whole IWAD into a new WAD file and I'm going through and doing it again

>Ion Fury is 30fps on switch
Im seething right now

>>6425312
...why? Is eduke32 that much of a mess?

>>6425312
Serves you right for playing first-person shooter on a console.

>>6425318
*On a handheld

>the mancubus sprite from freedoom

>>6425312
Is the Switch cursed as fuck or something? I never hear good things about its ports, whether they're actually games that should be there or not. Capcom especially has a terrible track record outside of like 2-3 games on it.

>>6425337
Like many other things in the project - great idea, shit execution. Raymoohawk was working on cleaning it up, but he disappeared from the project some time ago, and without him or some other good sprite artist the project is fucked.

>>6425338
It has some pretty impressive ports. It's just that a lot of them are pretty lazy.

>>6425338
The Turok games are 60.

>>6425314
Its a combination of eduke being shit and the devs/porting house being lazy.

>>6425314
I've heard it improved, but Ion Fury was really poorly-optimized when it released.

>>6425312
>30fps
>physical costs more than every other version
>probably no motion controls

>>6425343
45-60. The FPS is a rollercoaster in those ports. AND they stripped the multiplayer.

>>6425357
They did confirm gyro for it. But at 30fps in build engine? Fuck that.

>>6425360
I wonder if it hits a steady 60 with the overclock.
The lack of multiplayer in 2 was a major disappointment.

*blocks your path*

Why does "In the Dark" sound so fucking bad on OPL2/3? Like they couldn't have made better patches for whatever midi instrument is being played there?

>>6425367
I mean, who are they even supposed to be?

>>6425371
Because all of Doom's music sounds bad with OPL.

>>6425385
First off, that's just like your opinion man. Secondly, the lead instrument in "In the Dark" sounds particularly bad.

>>6425375
>this can't be real
>search for "wolf4"

Speaking of SP_FACE1

Oh fuck, the absolute madman posted a clip of an episode for his 200k special and it's Daikatana
https://twitter.com/Civvie11/status/1260361100916412417

He's at 196k

>>6425436
Imagine if he will never get 200k

>>6425440
That would be hilarious but he says hes making it in advance this time instead of waiting till he gets them like with DNF at 100k

>>6425440
Maybe if the world was just.

>>6424036
can you rip textures from other games? Morrowind might have something good, with the dwemer ruins.

>>6425291
yes, I like it. I wonder about other colors. Like a charcoal gray.

>>6425009
That pic can only go with the Final Doomer chainsaw.

>>6424901
Care to share?

>>6425447
Ehh, I'm trying to keep imported textures to a bare minimum if I can.

>>6424036
pic related, from kingpin
probably a bitch to align tho

>>6425447
Probably not. Anything mechanical in that game is mostly made of shapes, and uses plain textures. He'd be better off plundering some from Quake or Blood.

Is the dude who was trying to play Marathon still around? Any luck with 1.3b3?

>>6425494
I don't know about 3d development mister, but I know that there are separate files for textures and meshes (at least in mods, don't know how/if you can unpack the .esm).

Might provide some helpful inspiration.

>>6423953
https://twitter.com/Colonthreee/status/1260586059785740292
we need more quakewulfs

Also it would be a neat idea to make a /vr/ Q2 unit on trenchbroom

Anons, what happened to that Freedoom replacement that Doomworld shat themselves over? Please tell me it's still going, I want it to be completed purely out of spite for those jackasses.

>>6425526
Well there's not a lot of textures showing rows of pipes or sets of gear and stuff like that, they made the pipes and gears and that stuff out of 3D shapes, using a limited set of rusty metal textures.
There's a little bit of stuff you could use maybe, but not a lot which would look particularly at home in a sci-fi industrial setting.

Did the No rest for the wicked team create another wad? I loved that mapset.

>>6425574
I assume you mean No Rest for the Living. One of the two(?) devs made a level targetting brutal doom a couple years ago but that's it.

>>6425561
Damn son how'd you get shaders in quakespasm?

>>6425586
Reshade

>>6425598
Ah alright, for a moment there I thought there was a way to do it natively. Would be cool if there was a software rendered shader.

>>6425603
that is composite CRT dithering

>>6425604
also it wont happen because it would hurt the func msgboard feelings

>>6425606
What do they have against it?

>>6425543
The one with all the stupid looking ms paint sprites? I don't know if the guy actually made it yet

>>6425543
search for satanic infestation on doomworld, he is still very much working on it. the mods had to go in and delete posts and give people warnings because they were shitting on him so hard

>>6425309
>I can't save changes to IWADs
The "not saving changes to iwads" is a preference option in SLADE that you can turn off.

I just copy pasted the IWAD (as to keep an original copy), renamed one of them, and then edited/deleted stuff from that one.

>>6425436
Fucking based, been wondering when he would cover it

>>6425474
Sure. Keep in mind I haven't tested every single map so I don't know if anything is borked, but it should be fine.

new stuff from Barely Breathing creator

I'm having a problem which I was hoping someone could help with.

So I recently learned how to SR50, but I'm noticing that I'm still having trouble with certain specific jumps. For example, I know that you can complete E1M4 quickly by going over this gap instead of raising the bridge. But even if I execute the SR50 from the other room to gather enough momentum, I still can't cross the gap. I thought that SR50's were a binary thing, either you were doing them or you weren't. But it seems there's variation in them? How do I make sure I'm executing an SR50 at the top possible speed?

I'm using the middle mouse button to turn Strafe On, C and CTRL for TurnRight/Left respectively, and WASD for normal movement. Am I supposed to be moving the mouse while holding the Strafe On key as well?

>>6424303
Adam Windsor maybe? He made Demonfear and is constantly contributing maps to community projects, he made a pretty good Doom 1 episode recently too (called Spectrum).

>>6423953

Why is talktotransformer occasionally so good at coming up with map names?

>>6425742
how

So if I'm getting this right, GZDoom still cannot into this.

Ugh, Map27 in Doom2 is so dark, I can't even fucking see anything. Had to pop my invuln sphere to act like nvg to find the exit to the area where you get the yellow, and then the other to find the yellow key door. I've cranked my brightness and gamma all of the way up, and it's still hard to see.

>>6425706

They can spin, but they can't have texture on top or bottom. They're mostly good for doors (as long as they aren't in place where you can look at them from above), but you can't do picrelated.

It's just one of those default settings that I have no idea why Graf thought to put in GZD.

Why Graf, why would players want to not be able to see shit and not even have Doomguy emit light (Dark sector lighting)
Why Graf, why would players want to see blurred-ass textures (Texture filtering on Trillinear)
Why Graf, why would you have players have a super duper sensitive mouse (Prescaled mouse movement set to on)

There's probably more but I'm forgetting them right now.

Im kinda surprised when this mod was first announced a few threads back, no one really starting calling out "shillfag" on it cus the post went something along the lines of "check out this mod my friends working on."

Not that it should've happened ofc, but it almost seemed like it could've been read as wanting attention or something. Kinda like what's been going on with that MSPaint Doom project that got slammed on the Doomworld forums vs how /doom/'s been approaching it.

Corvus VS Caleb VS Ranger VS Doomguy VS Duke Nukem VS BJ Blazkowicz VS Lo Wang

For any GLBoom+ users out there, hear me out.

The default value for
>gl_lightmode
in your prboom-plus.cfg is 0, which is the standard GLBoom sector light mode. This gets the job done (although you definitely need to crank up the gamma correction to level 2/3/4, level 0/1 are too damn dark) - however this setting also makes lighting super flat and boring in maps.

gl_lightmode 1 is a mode that tries to emulate GZDoom's sector lighting, but looks kinda lame too.

If you edit that sucker to be gl_lightmode 2, you'll get Fog Based sector lighting, which is trying to approximate software rendering lighting (and doomguy emits light) but is still generally too damn dark and the gamma settings don't do anything.

But here's the gold. When you edit that value to be gl_lightmode 3, you'll get Shaders sector lighting. This is the best approximation of software rendering lighting (and doomguy also emits light), and you can actually see shit in darker maps. The reason I say you should edit it directly in the CFG instead of in-game is that when I tried to select Shaders in-game it would auto switch off of them for some reason. But editing the CFG outside of the game works fine.

>But why even use hardware rendering if you want to approximate software rendering look hurr durr
Because hardware rendering has big advantages for performance and can achieve certain things software rendering can't, so this way you're marrying the best of both worlds.

>>6425831

Lunar Reactor is the best Duke Nukem 3D map ever made!

>>6425991
>>The map with the huge arrow telling you where to go
People always whinge about this when I've seen the exact same thing in Plutonia and Scythe maps.

>>6426075
And the arrows were bad there too, I'm consistent in my criticism.
If you need a big arrow to tell the player where to go, you've failed as a level designer.

>>6426074
As soon as I heard this song it became my favourite in Duke3D. I said "this feels familiar" to my surprise it was made by Bobby Prince.
Still a great track though.

>>6426079
I wouldn't say that an arrow damns those maps in their entirety, but I do think that if you're making a map, and your solution for conveying progression to the player is to use an arrow, you need to back up a few steps and think over that part of the map.

I think an arrow is ok for pointing at a secret, say if the arrow is sneakily hidden and basically only obvious on the automap, like in E3M2, or if the arrow only becomes visible after finding a certain secret area.

>>6426073
I'm fairly sure there were some wallpapers of this picture on the blood 2 cd... (I no longer own it though)

Still low res for today's standards, but I'm sure you could run it through some kind of AI upscaler and get decent results.

>>6426030
Fucking ace, I like it

>>6426079
what about lots of small arrows anon

>>6426061
No it isn't

>>6425991
There was one in map15 and it was pretty stupid.
>>6426108
The arrows in Quake were also unnecessary but I can see where they come from. Quake's action is supposed to be much faster and explosive than Doom's, and the levels are not big and explorative like Doom's either.

>>6426115
Quake being true 3D game, which was still pretty new at the time, I think they were concerned with lots of newbies not thinking about all their movement options.

Does Doom 4 Vanilla work in multiplayer?
Could I play it in Odamex, or would it probably be better on Zand?

>>6425991
You can complete the map without ever even looking at the arrow or the building that it points to.

>>6426134
So why put it there

>>6419353
To the anon who posted this archive to replace the music in Quake 1 with the 1996 alternate game soundtrack by Sonic Mayhem: I have the GOG version, will it work with that? I have a folder in the games directory called MUSIC but there are no files in it at all.

>>6426135
>"Why put the arro..." Clearly if you even have to ask that question, then you wouldn't understand.

>>6426145
Try me, Sandy

How do I turn a mp3 song into midi without it being all pianos? It's really bothering me that I can't find anything on this.

>>6426147
>Sorry, no time PLEBS.

>>6426148
Think about this for a second. How do you turn a digital photo of a toy shotgun or a dinosaur into a Doom sprite? If you can answer this question, you can logically deduce an answer to your question as well.

>>6426137
You will probably have to use a source port, I suggest Quakespasm Spiked. Though it doesn't hurt to try putting the files in the that music folder and see if it works. If not, just got with a source port.

>>6426115
>Quake's action is supposed to be much faster and explosive than Doom's
You've never played the game, have you?

>>6426168
The single player doesn't call for very high speed, but the multiplayer is absolutely nuts.

>>6426073
> now we're cooking with ASS

>>6426162
I'm retarded, I can't figure it out

>>6426183
You write a midi track by hand using whatever editor that you use to make midis, you blithering idiot.

>>6426135
Suggested weapon progression. You get berserk and a shotgun if you follow the arrow. But you're free to get the weapons in any order you like.

From the ethical point of view, is it considered immoral to quicksave in a game that has instakill traps?

>>6426193
Just play the game.

>>6426163
Quakespasm Spiked you say? Do I need any additional game files for it to work or should I have everything already?

>>6426193
CUNT DESTROYER!

Haven't seen that face in a long time

>>6426201
That's for nerds.

>>6426206
And I guess normie-tier "philosophy" questions isn't. Fair point.

>>6426202
If you have the game files you should be good to go. There is a video in the OP about setting up Quake that you should really watch.

>>6426192
So you're putting a giant fucking arrow on the floor only to suggest that I get a zerk and a shotgun?

Oh I guess we might as well put a big fucking arrow in MAP02: Underhalls to tell the players to go get that SSG.

>>6426240
There is also progression in that direction, but it's not the only path you can take to get that progression. I don't know what your problem is.

>>6426246
Maybe I should put a big fucking arrow to show you the way to my problem

>>6426178
And what does Quake MP have to do with arrows telling you where to go in SP?

Literally what? Carmack was always supportive of modern community, even back during Wolf3D days, and Doom was specifically designed to make modding as easy as possible, hence the WAD files. They even hired some of the modders to produce Final Doom for them.

Thanks man, I appreciate all the help. Never been a huge fan of the first Quake 1, even when it was new. I liked the gameplay but the ambient soundtrack was boring to me and that combined with a lot of similar visuals in the levels made it feel like a slog. I am hoping giving it a fresh chance damn near 25 years later with this alternate Methods of Destruction soundtrack will show me how dumb I was to sleep on it back in the day. Always loved the Quake 2 soundtrack so to find out he made one for Q1 was a nice surprise.

>>6425436
AW FUCK YEAH

>>6426168
Have you? And what did you think of it?

You can easily beat Doom 1 just by having a casual walk. Projectiles and enemies are comparatively much slower.
Enemies, projectiles, guns, switching, are much faster than Doom's. You suffer less splash damage from your explosions, you're provided rockets as much as shells, the game incentives tanking (as is the purpose with the ticking-down overhealth), levels are shorter and contain less enemies but they're much more dangerous than Doom's. This is all to incentive a fast play-style. It's the reason Quake speedrunning took off more popularly than Doom's.

>>6426193
Go ahead. Bullshit maps don't deserve intended gameplay.

I know the technicalities and some of the interesting tricks you can pull with vanilla or the cool stuff in ZDoom, but my stuff just ends up being tech demos.

Some maps I play, they flow like water. I know there's lots on level design out there, but it seem very generalised and I struggle to implement it in Doom.

>>6427095
iD claims they had that idea lying around for a while, but Half-Life 2 was the first to do it. Plausible, desu, because it's kind of an easy idea to arrive at when you have physics for items and clutter just lying around your game; what if you could throw it at people, what if you could SHOOT it at people?

For some reason, when you buy Quake now it doesn't come with the music. You can download Quake from the OP and copy-paste the music from the id1 folder into whatever source port you're using. You probably won't need the rest of the files since you already got the game

If you can't beat it, lower the difficulty until you can. Stop bashing your head against UV because you think it's the only way to play.
If you really must continue being that stubborn, then get hit less and watch a UV max run of it or something.

>>6427914
You have to remember that TNT was among the earliest examples of a community megawad. While Final Doom didn't release until mid-1996, TNT was developed in 1995, and even almost released in that year before id software picked them up.
Level editors were a lot more cumbersome to use (and completely lacked 3D mode!), and people were still in the process of figuring out what works and what doesn't back in those days.

>>6427924
>If you can't beat it, lower the difficulty until you can
Why would I just give up? I asked for tips because I don't want to watch a video and know the whole level beforehand. I just want some tips. I'm trying to beat the game on UV pistol start, not the whole game minus one level.

>>6427949
>Playing the level first on a lower difficulty is "giving up"
Anon................................................

>>6427958
Yes, it's giving up on beating it on UV. Just fuck off if you don't have any better advice than "don't get hit" retard.

>>6427964
Ok
Shoot them before they shoot you

>>6427964
I think you're not understanding. The idea is that you play a level you're having trouble with on an easier difficulty to get to know the map, and then after you're done and you know where everything is and how it works, you play it again on UV with that knowledge. This is basically the same thing as watching a run of it or asking people for tips. You can just do it on your own by getting to know the map with your own two eyes.

>>6427949
Lowering the difficulty =/= giving up
If you really don't want to lower the difficulty, then use the save feature.

>>6427979
Then get good, faggot. There's nothing else you can do.

>>6427921
huh, so you've gotten to the part where the map becomes easy and weren't able to finish it
if you're not getting the radsuit and soulsphere in the lava, get those. if you're having trouble getting them, keep in mind that your shots will knock the cacodemons back, and if they're not on the ground they won't be able to counteract the momentum from it, basically stopping them dead in their tracks or forcing them backwards
also, if you don't step on the platform leading to the blue pillar-door; that way, the enemies in that green room after the yellow key room won't wake up until you enter the room
that should hopefully be enough to get it done

Theres a big difference between saving and savescumming.

Thanks, I actually figured that out myself after a while. What kills me going down to where you say it becomes easy is I have no more rounds for the plasma rifle and only rockets and shotgun shells left. If I try to fire a rocket, they end up clipping the cliff or something instead of hitting barons. Going down, I just get cornered and raped. I'll keep going at it.

>>6425756
That's cool, I got

E6M1: Hell's Road
E6M2: Shadowfell
E6M3: Disintegration of the Self
E6M4: Black Crest
E6M5: Brand of Chaos
E6M6: Praxis of Madness

>>6428002
save some enemies for later, then, since you get loaded up with tons of ammo in the second half of the map

>>6425959
the author asked me if i could post it. so i did. maybe i should tell him to post something when there are more bigger updates, instead of little ones.

> Kinda like what's been going on with that MSPaint Doom project that got slammed on the Doomworld forums vs how /doom/'s been approaching it.

what project? are you referring to this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_cNKaVTShk
or it's another one?

>>6428029
He's probably talking about Satanic Infestation.

Fuck, valiant is kicking my ass. My need to drop down from HMP. The monster closets and teleport-in-shocktroopers are devastating, and there is no where to hide.

>>6428062
IF memory serves right (I could just be misremembering) Valiant often punishes you for trying to run away and hide. You gotta stay in there in the thick of it and fight it out.

>>6428069
Maybe I'll try that, but I imagine the hitscans are going to take me down.

ZDoom based 2d fighting game

wouldn't Doomguy be antagonistic towards Caleb?
I mean, Caleb is basically just a demon/demigod, Doomguy has killed lesser.

>>6428195
He might see him as a brother in arms in a fight against the demons. But at the same time Caleb doesn't shy away from gunning down innocent people for fun.

Quick question about pistol starts. Is it safe to say that most wads, if not at all, are balanced around them?

>>6428210
I'm here to donate some blood... somebody else's...

>>6428213
Most of the good ones are at the very least.

>>6427251
Fearrific textures + Darkdoom

>>6428213
A majority of them are, usually the better ones. If you’re unsure, then check the readme and see if it says anything. If it doesn’t, then do continuous.

>>6427924
I will never understand this attitude. Being challenged is what makes video games fun, why would you avoid it?

>>6428252
Being challenged reasonably.

>>6428287
I hardly think e4m2 on uv is unreasonable.

What's with the HMP apologists as of recent? Doom is supposed to be played on UV, and it supposed to be challenging. Here, I found a mod just for them:

>>6428252

>>6428295
That's highly subjective and depends on personal skill. If anon who started this chain of comments has been hitting a wall and can't overcome it to the point of asking for tips, it is unreasonable for him.
For the record, I don't think it's unreasonable either.

>>6428306
If you can pistol start every map before e4m2 on uv, e4m2 isn't unreasonable.

>>6428306
I'm usually the last person to say "git gud", but GIT FUCKING GUD.

>>6428213
Continuous Only wads are extremely rare. A big part of why this is the case, is because it takes a lot more work balancing a map around gear obtained in previous levels (especially if its a community effort), compared to just simply playtesting the map by itself.
So yeah, most wads are pistol start friendly as a result. A lot of wads still try to account for for continuous play as well, though. But usually through simple things like making backpacks and the BFG a rare find until later in the wad when things get harder, and not being too generous with ammo overall. Sometimes even resorting to death exits at certain points, so that continuous players aren't always fully stacked.

>>6428252
Some people have their limits, though. If the challenge on UV is to a point where they are no longer having fun, then there's no point trying to force themself to keep playing UV. Sometimes they just gotta swallow their pride and lower the skill setting.
