2048 units of /vr/ lead anon:

i just played around in peanut gallery and noticed there's still a missing texture under one of the blue tapestries in that central main area, the one with the reveants on spires, arachnotron's up the stairs, etc.

(it's been there for a few versions)

Droom.
Dreedoom.

>>6927189
FreeDoom and Chex may be considered one, others are using copyright material, maybe Chex too IDK how they view that one.

>>6927116
Make it high tech greece. Always wondered how their style would look if coupled with some cyber/steam punk.

My uncle works at idtendosoft and he massively leaked new Quake's cover art to me

>>6927276

Dude .vag files!

>>6927276
Oh how wrong you are.

>>6927195
Dredd on earth

>>6927272
Nice and not that often done. One episode of my FPS is set in a stereotypical Greco-Roman world, but I'm still so far from tackling that, nothing but some placeholder textures exist.

>>6927287

>>6927135
Fuck off to /vg/ doomcuck.

>>6927152
More help screens
I know they're not great, but at least they're more readable than my old ones

>>6927050
Link your posts in the OP, its easier to keep a track.
also i want to see this 40k game fully ripped off and not worked out in Q1 and Q2

>>6927152
maybe updating and releasing this after my neck and sanity decides agrees with me again

>>6927202
excellent work btw, there were lots of tweaks to random maps since the early versions and in many cases i'm pretty sure it was you?

>>6927191
Quakewulf could you check with Yamagii about adding 3rd person option and if not custom DLL support?
That old Ai mod needs some love

Ooh, acrobatic Corvus like in Heretic 2?

>>6927424
>Microsoft to buy Hexen and Heretic from Activision
Sequel never.

>>6927375
it'll be OP-worthy when/if we figure it out.

fwiw though, here's the python code I decompiled the resource archive with: https://pastebin.com/dN27B4D1

Remember when Carmack was Elon Musk before Musk?

>>6927405
>>6927424
Heretical Doom, and yeah, I took a page from Heretic 2 with his acrobatic abilities, because polevaulting is fun as fuck.

>>6927202
Mind taking a screenshot?

>>6927268
Chex and freedoom are different iwads, not dependent on a dehacked patch. Freedoom would work fine, but chex uses a different exe iirc. Wouldn't work on Ids port.
But they are closer to tcs than independent games I spose.
Hacx

So I played Serious sam and I really didnt enjoy it all that much.
Not super into the setting and the lack of cohension when it comes to the visuals.

So what are some alternatives when you want to kill a bazillion enemies but dont care much for BFG spam?

So what are some upcoming projects y'all are looking forward to?

>>6927471

Difference is that Carmack is a hard motherfucker who tried to steal school computers with Thermite, and can also write good code while being autistic.

Elon is a moron who coasted off his parents Emerald aparteid money for most of his life, even when he was broke that was always a cushion for him, he's an autist, and his code was shitty enough to need complete overhaul by other people.

what are the most abstract enemies in a doom mod?
by both gameplay and design

yeah i'm not one of these super carmack fanboys, but the guy actually does stuff, whereas elon musk is a charismatic but psychopathic businessman.

>>6927476
glorious, i just downloaded v1.4 and tried it out on some slaughtermaps, was a lot of fun

keep it up <3

>>6927135
>Episode 4, Floor 10
I would corner peak them with the knife and they would get stuck with the running animation if less than half of their body was visible, but you would still be able to hit them with your knife. Really comes in handy if you're trying to pistol start each level.

>>6927152
Updated the icons. I am still not quite satisfied with the standard and explosive ones though. Thanks again to the anons who suggested the shield.

>>6927634
IMO either make the shadow gray/black or don'ty do it at all
colored shadow makes an icon more painful on the eye than anything

>>6927634
>>6927637
disagree with this guy, just increase the contrast of your shadow. the new icons are great, although i'd suggest a little more embellishment on the "shield piercing" one, it looks a little flat compared to the new HE and standard icons

>>6927637
Does it look THAT bad? I barely notice it in-game, but maybe my eyes are too bad.

>>6927527
not retro

>>6927152
>>6927116

You guys restart the entire episode when you die right? If you're not doing 1 life pistol start runs, you're playing wrong.

>>6927675
Shut up autist

>>6927675
I restart the entire game.

>>6927135
Wolf3D always puts a smile on my face when I see it. Nostalgia overload.

>>6927675
I reinstall my OS

>>6927675
I format c:

>>6927675
nice bait

go play magnolia and sunlust on 1 life

tell me how it goes

So lemme get this straight.

Vanilla vs GZDoom even in strict mode:
-different damage calculations since vanilla Doom relies on a pseudo RNG table
-different physics like floating enemies behaving like imps in heretic for GZDoom or something
-infinite height can actually be an advantage since caco clouds cant go over a demon congestion
-something about props blocking projectiles or not at all I dont remember


Something else Im missing? Is that reason enough to go vanilla when playing without mods?

>>6927675
>Not playing Doom on hardware from 1993
You are not welcome here casual scrub

>>6927685
i actually kill myself irl and reincarnate when i die in a game

>>6927705
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

infinite height makes things not only much harder in most maps, but also completely changes maps

many maps use throngs of cacos insidiously with infinite height in mind: they look far above you (and far away in general), but soon you can not move.

desu the main reason i take out cacos quite fast is because of this blocking effect

>>6927705
Pretty much. For vanilla style gameplay prboom+ and crispy doom are king. I usually use crispy as my main source port and use prboom+ at 856×480 to play boom mods at crispy resolution. If you play with software renderer, it's pretty close to what I'd imagine a Crispy Boom to look like.

>>6927634
Dang these are looking pretty slick
>>6927649
Not to a dick but, man that readied weapon sprite needs work. The profiled view looks great but until you posted that webm I could barely tell what it was

>>6927705
Props block projectiles in zdoom but not vanilla. Can be changed in the options though.

>>6927705
cacos will lower at mach 3 in vanilla to stay on-screen and in autoaim range when you run at them
it's pretty fun to watch actually

>>6927649
Colored shadow makes the icon look slightly smudged, as if it is under motion blur effect.

Shadow is supposed to add contrast to the icon to improve visibility. The colored shadow does not provide contrast and acts towards the opposite effec

Here's an example
Top - black line shadow
middle - semitransparent line shadow
Bottom - yours

>>6927152
One last shitty help screen for today. I've made a total of 5 so far, but im still messing around with the others. Its been a long fuckin day.

>>6927189
HacX comes to mind

>>6927751
First, thanks.

Second, yeah, the sprites are at the top of the todo list. However, I totally suck at spriting. I already posted in the request thread in the ZDoom forum, but I don't think anyone will ever try their hands on this. Maybe in a few years I might have improved enough...

>>6927774
Nice illustration. To me, the middle row looks best. But I already darkened the shadows as per the other anon's suggestion.
Also placed some evidence in the perp's den.

Please note that a lot of stuff at the moment is placeholders so I can try out how things work.

Btw, if somebody has experience with manipulating the StatusScreen class, I'm all ears.

>>6927793
the problerm is hue, which is still the same. The darkened version is just back with 132 alpha

>>6927776
Reloading is cancer

>>6927809
Good thing its not only optional, but there is an entire second character who doesn't use it.
I like it because it gives people more reason to switch weapons frequently, or to use melee. And there's a ton of fuckin melee to use.

>>6927797
So should I desaturate the shadow or what?

>>6927824

>>6927774
>Colored shadow makes the icon look slightly smudged

So, yes. That'd be better than now.
But what looks best is black or semitransparent black (130-150 alpha)

>>6927793
>ZDoom forum, I don't think anyone will ever try their hands on this.

What makes you say that?

>>6927840
Gotcha. Thanks.

>>6927849
It's three sprites to be doomified and there are enough requets from months ago that aren't as elaborate as mine.

>>6927751
IMO this is one of those cases where it would be beter to use angled sprites.
Maybe rip it from that Dredd vs Death game, and touch it up. Would be much easier.

>>6927923
Tbh I never liked that design, also I *really* want the dial frame where you can see the whole thing.
Although someone on the forum actually made sprites of that exact gun in Doom style.

>>6927287
lmao nice, what does the format do?

>>6927962
It's use the format PSX Doom uses for audio.

>>6927195
>>6926216
Make the health meter 5 chain links. All judges have 5 chain links connecting their zip to their badge. Their badge pinned to their heart symbolically. It fits visually with the theme. You could have it show increments of 20%. Each chink lost the chain wears down and shows damage

>>6927191
>Q2
>Boxes
No. Please no. No more boxes.

>>6927202
For real? Goddammit we just finished a whole pile of fixes.
>1.2 should be the last version
>1.3 should be the last version
I should stop jinxing us like that.

>>6927137
>Monster randomizer for vanilla
That's fucking radical. Can a Quakehead tell me if, when that releases, it could be applied to other mods/maps?

>>6927985
Damn, that's a pretty cool idea. I will see what I can do about it.

>>6927989
All Q1 Industrial and techbase levels are full of boxes

>>6927530
31 Days Of /vr/

>>6927769
I must have failed to notice this in all my years, can you find any footage?

Controversial statement. I think the Mick Gordon soundtracks weren't very memorable. I can hum every song from the first two games, I can't do that for a single nu Doom track. Shame because his Killer Instinct tracks are memorable as fuck.

>>6928086
Wow you can hum slightly tweaked Alice in Chains, Metallica and Pantera songs? Cool

>>6927202
>>6927994
I can't find what you're talking about, I'm gonna have to ask you for a screenshot.

>>6928086
Pretty much agree, there's not a lot of melody in the Doom 4 tracks. BFG Division sticks with me, and the main theme going after E1M1, mostly because it's the E1M1 beat, but beyond that I can't recall really anything else from there. Granted, I've only played Doom 4 like two times, while I've played classic Doom for most of my life.

And yeah, Mick Gordon's work on Killer Instinct is fantastic, so the impression I get is that ZeniMax were holding him back.

>>6928086
I don't think they were meant to be memorable songs, they were meant to be chaotic to suit the gameplay and it works really well.

>>6928086
new doom's ost feels restricted because it feels like a reminder that DOOM IS METAL (due to flanderization/marketing) yet it's not the same metal type because of zenimax being assholes
doom always had some different types of music and even mick gordon can produce different types of tracks
even some of the best megawads have non-metal tracks

Has there been a mod that replaced the images of Doom backgrounds with the Widepix ones? As far as I know there isn't, and I just made my own that I wanted to share, but I need to know for sure.

>>6927530
200 seconds of /vr/

Fact: whoever designed the green reptiloids in serious sam needs to be shot

they are worse than fucking VORES

>>6928123
Yeah, for as much metal as Doom copied (and a lot of that was traditional heavy metal, which Doom 4 doesn't use at all), there's a lot of other stuff in the soundtrack that gives it a lot of variety and extra character.

Compare to Doom 64, some of the atmospheric tracks are actually pretty good, but a lot of them sound very similar and lack a memorable melody or tune, and as a result it feels too samey at times. That game would have been very well served by some variety in that department.

>>6928131
not retro

>>6928137
t. Croteam

>>6927530
1 year of /vr/

>>6928130
What if everyone designs just one room each? And the project lead anon compiles them all into a big ass map?

>>6928152
That might be kinda cool, but I Imagine the cohesion and overall progression would be fucked.

>>6928148
Are you retarded or what? I don't even like SS.

in general, if new doom was a different series, it could still be fun but also be unrecognizable as a vaguely doom inspired series
>no metal ost because see >>6928123 so we might as well have orchestral fantasy/adventure music
>more cutscenes because of the lore focus
>no chainsaw/shotguns because it's a more hyperfuturistic setting when og doom was low tech, with a b-movie like aesthetic
>no "bfg" acronym because only gore and blood can be the mature elements
>no need for guns since the praetor suit might as well be doomguy being samus/iron man
>slayer could easily start off as a demigod instead of originally being an unlucky/tough marine whose face bleed when on low health or had his armor ripped in the cover
>no armor because let's face it: second hp bar renders it boring, just give him 400 hp already
>enemies may improve or worsen, since there wouldn't be iconic doom monsters to base the "doom dance" direction on
>no "hell tech" because of how lore/art direction handles cyberdemons and the general fusion of sci-fi and hell
>no hell at all because besides that being related to the era and media consumed by id, new doom is written so heavily into sci-fi/fantasy elements, we could get aliens, orcs and goblins instead
>no "doom" as the title because despite what you think and the tom cruise movie, doomguy was still "doomed"
doom 3 felt like it was just rewriting the premise to some extent

>>6928179
you think I would believe a single word uttered by a croatian?

>>6927530
The Hellivator

>>6928190
Classic Doom is Hair and Thrash metal, not industrial. Also, several songs were ambient electronic as well. It wasn't just nonstop balls to the wall metal.

where to find flopp disk images for wolfenstine3d?

IdTech1: Maskwalls, rising/falling sectors, teleportation, switches, rotating sectors (Some doors in Hexen)

IdTech2: Moving brushes, switches, teleportation, volume based lighting.

IdTech3: Moving brushes, rotating brushes(?) switches, teleportation, volume based lighting, colored lighting, destructible level geometry.

Marathon engine: 3D floor based water you can submerge in, vacuum levels with low gravity, rising/falling sectors (which can move through water surface) overlapping sectors/impossible geometry, switches.

Chasm: The Rift engine: polyobjects, limb removal, weather effects

Jedi engine: Maskwalls, rising/falling sectors, 3D floors, limited voxels (death star hologram) limited polyobjects (your ship) teleportation, switches.

ROTT engine: 3D floors, trains, elevators (GADs) gas chambers, bounce pads, transparent breakable glass, moving walls, pits, rolling boulders, variable light levels, switches, maskwalls.

BUILD engine: Maskwalls, transparency, breakable glass, destructible walls, earthquakes, rising/falling sectors, slopes, rotating sectors, sliding doors, stretching/growing/shrinking sectors, wave effect, escalators, conveyor belts, drivable vehicles, waypoint trains, scripted explosions, destructible items/textures (glass bottles, TV screens, etc.) breakable lights, physics objects (pool balls) submergable water, teleporters, teleport trick elevators, multi-stop elevators, two-way trains with automatic doors, colored lighting, floor aligned sprites for sprite based bridges and other constructs, transparent water, stacked sectors for true room over room, overlapping sectors/impossible geometry, voxel objects, weather effects

...Were other engines even trying?

Do I get a pass for playing Doom with disabled view bob if I say its because I grew up on wheelchairenstein 3D.

>>6927530
Ashes episode 2 let's GOOOOO!

>>6928223
idTech 1 and 2 teleportation is pretty much the same.
ROTT engine does not have 3D floors, that's a trick.
Also all those features of Build engine were developed some time after other engines

>>6928229
for me wheelchair movement causes mild nausea

>>6928223
Lightning on Idtech 3 seems artificial and flat compared to Q2 idtech 2 and the 1st UE.

Also Rott Engine was a Fork of Wolfenstein Engine that turned out nice
Build was made out of Ken's insanity and autistic feud inbetween him and carmack
JEDI was made out of George Lucas Diddling with Doom's engine

marathon was insane because of its texture and spritework being superior due to MAC's shenanigans.
Something that Wolf3d Mac ports took advantage with the updated Artwork and sprites, though Adrian Did only front facing ones

>>6928245
>ROTT engine does not have 3D floors, that's a trick.

Everything in 2.5d engines is a trick.

>>6928281
And everything in 3D engines is also just trickery and approximation. Who cares.

>>6928223
>Jedi Engine: limited polyobjects
You mean models?
>Chasm The Rift: polyobjects
Also models.
>ROTT: elevators
Those are just delayed teleporters.

>>6928281
it does not have even remotely 3D floors

>>6928331

They function as a second floor above the main one which you can walk around on as though it were solid. Though it does not render a solid floor and depicts it using sprites, it is functionally a 3D floor.

Gonna play Duke 3D for the first time (and not buy it legally fuck pitchford). Should I use EDuke32 or Rednukem

>>6928410

eDuke32

this is some marphyblack shit

>>6928318

By elevators I meant vertically moving GADs

I will never play pistol start considering how many wads expect you to fight cacos, hell knights, and even archviles (im looking at you BTSX2) with a single-barrel. That is just so fucking boring.

>>6928498
Just get the tougher enemies into an infight or ignore them until you find better weapons.

>>6927985
>All judges have 5 chain links connecting their zip to their badge. Their badge pinned to their heart symbolically.
I've never heard that. So far as I know Tharg doesn't really send out actual 'model sheets,' and even Ezquerra's own art uses more than five chain links and varies it up by art piece (and if anyone's art was considered the Perfect Dredd, I'd go for either his or Bolland's).

>>6928273
Are there any Wolf3D source ports that let you use the Mac visuals?

>>6927530
18 Naked Cacos in the Shower at /vr/

>>6928549
are you saying all this time the cacos were clothed?

>>6928508
........No.

>>6928223
A lot of what you posted for build is the same trick repurposed for a different application.

A shitload of which is covered under the "moving brushes" of idtech 2 and 3. And you didnt even mention the swimable water for it... breakable items (Hexen 2, shitloads of other idtech 2/3 games)...

Duke3D was impressive as fuck on release, but a lot of it is gimmicky, and the stuff that isn't is you getting crushed in a small sector occasionally.

Love Duke 3D, but jesus man.

>>6928559

Quake could not even have swinging doors because no rotation. But yes I forgot the submergeable water, my bad. It's still indefensibly barebones, as was IdTech1 before it

>>6928498
haha maybe this is why i found btsx boring

though personally for me, basically: doom = infight party

all i do is cause infighting all day

>>6928508
Neither of those things apply to archviles.

>>6928590
>indefensibly
Thats just silly. Doom and Quake were basically the first of their kind. So of course they didnt have every feature added by later games.

>>6928605

They barely had ANY. A little more dev time would have been worth it to give mappers more tools for their toolboxes

>>6928425
its still the 40k game?

Is this nigga really saying Doom didn't do enough

>>6928425
ya think?
>>>/wsg/3633017

>>6928621
same dev and engine

>>6928498
desu, non-pistolstart makes no sense to me

if a level designer has no sense of the weapons and ammo a player has at that point in the map, then how can they design encounters?

e.g., if you have a bfg and some ammo left over, you always have this "megabomb" option t o skip whatever encounter, which is pretty lame.

i feel like for maps with careful fight planning, pistolstart is essential

Made a quick little checklist to keep track of games and wads I've completed.

>>6928590
You don't seem to be getting what I'm saying. You mention physics objects in the form of pool, but what do you think grenades do when they bounce? Marathon gets a nod for low gravity, when Quake doesn't?

Anyway. This is stupid. They're different games. Duke did all that cool shit 4 years after idtech 1, and Quake was an entirely different type of engine.

>>6928661
I see the logic in that, and I noticed that playing my own maps in 2048, as that's how I normally play.

Ultimately though I like the idea of a Doom campaign being a continuous adventure, I also like the Doom 1 episodic structure where you can divide up the game into larger segments like that, in which case it would be much easier to coordinate and develop with continuous play in mind, at least partially.

>>6928686
I made one too but didn't post it. Maybe someone will find it useful

>>6928689

I forgot some, I copped to that. Can you admit it was so basic as to severely constrain level designers in terms of the scenarios they could create?

>>6928702
I like this. If I ever end up making an individual level chart I might do a layout similar to this one.

how many months til woof is crispy boom and i can ditch prboom for good? i just want to have fixed blood colors and good mouse control.

>>6928725
Hard to say really. It just came out earlier this year. I noticed some really fucky shit with the Eternity demos. I've never seen a demo continuously pause and upause itself before.

>>6928498
saveless run >>> pistol start faggotry

>>6928498
BTSX from what I've played seems to be built around a continuous playthrough thematically atleast

>>6928590
The expansions have rotating brushes.

>>6928498
this, yeah brag about skill all you want but killing cyberdemons with a shotgun is the single most boring thing ever imagined and it happens with every wad after map15

>>6928736
Why not both?

>>6928693
that's fair.

somehow lately i have a pretty fight-oriented perspective on doom, i actually like just treating maps as standalone, and focus on the fights in them.

anyway as long as we have fun...

also, thanks for contributing to 2048. i played through it and really enjoyed it; indeed i re-playedd some maps just today

>>6928725
do they plan to add vulkan?

>>6928741
Theyre pretty hacky though. They rotate visually, but the actual physical change is accomplished by making a bunch of invisible but solid cubes whose position orbits around the object. Hexen 2 had true rotation (backported from Quake 2 I believe).

i'm doing a 100% walkthrough of 2048 maps, I think i found a way to get that supercharge secret from map11.

btw that final fight (in the cramped room with megasphere) is amazing. i hope you didn't make it any easier after beta2.

this was one of my favorite 2048 maps, nice work. which others did you make?

I love the aesthetics and puzzles / level design of Hexen but damn they really dropped the ball with the enemies / encounter design. Like Doom's enemies all work together so brilliantly with so many possible scenarios, while in Hexen theyre just kind of an obstacle.

>>6928131
At least you can shoot their projectiles.

Yeah I actually looked up some art myself
after making this claim and immediately saw I was wrong. It's simply down to the artist. I dunno where I got this from? I think maybe its in my head from a podcast where an artist (bolland?) was saying in a joking manner that it's a hot debate about how many chain links is "right" and that it's 5. I dunno.

5 seems like a decent number though cus then you can represent 20 health each chink.

>>6928410
Try them both. They are virtually identical (RedNukem is a fork of EDuke) but they have some minor differences in the options.

Last time I played, EDuke had a bug that caused the level geometry to temporarily dissappear when riding certain lifts and RedNukem didn't have that problem, so I played RedNukem. They both can play the SC-55 music packs ( sc55.duke4.net/games.php ) but RedNukem could also play OPL3 emulation as well IIRC.

I personally prefer DOSBox for the sweet SoundBlaster MIDIs but you need the original DOS executables which you can find here
> https://mega.nz/folder/CldGAahb#yn_8LkRHraywPgKJMp5pqA
This download contains dozens of games and you probably don't need 'em all but it's worth it just for DOSDuke imo. Run the game using the DOSBox fork that uses integer scaling, DOSBox pixel perfect

>>6929291
>menotaurs
>like minotaurs, but female and in constant pms

>>6929283
No worries. Brian Bolland and Ron Smith set the 'standard' Dredd that most everyone followed for years but artists have always done their own little variations and even today you've got all sorts of little changes on even the normal street Judge getups, nevermind the wacky uniforms on everything from meat wagon drivers to Accounts Division. It's one of those things I really like, that so long as you've got the scowl, helmet, and badge, there's no mistaking what you're looking at, and there's some unique stuff each artist does even now, like slightly differently-colored shoulderpads or the offset zipper of Ezquerra's uniforms (RIP).

>>6929324
I don't remember how old these images are but they're pretty damn old, given the depicted Dredds don't even reach prog 200 and prog 2200 (twenty two hundred) just came out last week, so I can say for sure there's been a hell of a lot more than fourteen artists who've drawn him in the main series by now and who knows how many in the Megazine.

I guess blue looks good turning to black in shadowed areas, but I like when they mix it up and even include multiple hues in one panel. Hell, IIRC even Vs. Death did that a bit and it'd make sense for the dye and material to be a bit different at times given how eternally underfunded and overstressed Justice Dept. is. The SJS should absolutely have black leather, though.

I never realized there were clubs in the Judge Dredd universe, doing some reading about them and they're called Daysticks. They're titanium-cored beating sticks and that's fucking cool

>>6929353
Yeah, they're beefy club-things. Used to be just beating sticks until a loon with a chainsaw buzzed right through one in a confrontation with the jays, so now they've got titanium cores. I thought the name daystick was just a pun on nightstick (as in, "beating the daylights out of someone"), but apparently the NYPD did actually carry two different types of batons at one point, one during the night- which led the term nightstick into common parlance- and one during the day, which was called a daystick and was actually smaller than the night one. Given the original concept/pilot strip was that MC1 was just future-NYC (which was immediately dropped), it makes sense. No idea how those wacky Brits stumbled on that bit of trivia while writing it forty years ago, though.

>>6929353
A big stiff stick is a good plan B

>>6929364
That'd actually explain the two different types of clubs I've seen before.

>>6929365
I can confirm from personal experience that a stick is a good plan B or plan A. Stick good.

If I'm not given the right arsenal to kill a cyberdemon I just assume I'm not supposed to kill the cyberdemon and have to get around it. You don't need to go for 100% kills, especially when pistol starting.

>>6928686
That seems silly. I have one of those charts for Touhou but Touhou is something where Normal gives me a really hard time after half a decade (with prolonged periods of absence from playing mind you) and Lunatic is impossible for someone like me. I'm not trying to shit on you for playing below UV, if you're new to DOOM then that's fine and it's fine to work your way up until you're comfortable on UV, but I don't think it's really necessary to keep track of it

>>6928229
I went through two phases where I hated playing Doom with viewbob and then I started to like it to the point where I even played Wolf 3D with the GZDoom sourceport with viewbob on. Now I've come back full circle and just play both games how they were intended.

How do I load Copper's Nightmare behavior into mods like Quoth or Arcane Dimensions? When I try to use command lines, my health remains 100 and enemy behaviors are still regular Nightmare.

>>6929604
Shit you can't even load it with the mission packs. What a gyp.

>>6929464
Enemies don't move that fast and any gun combat happens at short distance. You get saber back after 2 levelas anyway, which is the main focus of the game, and guns become obsolete - aside from maybe Disruptor Rifle in couple of levels.

And the projectile speed is even slightly faster than in DF1

>>6929604
That isn't how Quake mods work. No sideloading except in specific edge cases like mods that build off Quoth or the expansions using dedicated -quoth/-hipnotic/-rogue -game <gamedir> options.

I finished 2048 units, good job guys. I have to say that I was too much of a brainlet to figure out MAP31. What were you supposed to do after acquiring the two keys?
Also, will I be able to play vr's Blood maps with Fresh Supply?

>>6929324
Haha yeah, right after posting I also did a quick search and looked into my case files, but the chain length was always different. But I didn't think much of it, because it's been years since I read Dredd the last time. I can remember details from Judge Child, Cal, Apocalpyse War and some others, but I couldn't tell you much about anything anymore.

Alright, so I quickly threw together a few concepts as how to incorporate the chain health meter. I am strongly considering going the not-realistic route, but that will certainly lead to huge problems with
the badge, if I add it (which I would like, because the chain alone is too cryptic imo). To explain my choice of colors for the ammo display - despite using the Lawgiver Mk2 model from the comics, I really liked the ammo counter from the 2012 movie; it was a regular LCD display in blue.

Also, nevermind the flipped shading on the chain, I had it the other way round originally before noticing that it looks dumb that way.

>>6927675
I do full-episode runs of my favorite pwads/episodes. Scythe 1 is a good example. Episode 1 is easy enough that you end up gravitating towards doing it UV-Fast. Episode 2 takes practice but the feeling you get from pulling it off is a great high; I smile just thinking about it. Episode 3 takes 4shockblast-tier skill. Base Ganymede is also another good one because it's fairly easy but it's still a great megawad. It's a Doom 1 megawad with episodes in case you didn't know.

>>6928152
We could just have one map file with anons queuing up, everyone passing the map to the next person after adding a room. We could fractal out a non-linear map like that too.

>>6927750
Friendly reminder that the Woof source port is a thing.

>>6928013

>>6929882
Woof is amazing and the more features Fabian pulls in from chocolate/crispy the better, but it's still got some compatibility issues it needs to deal with. It's not quite there yet for compatibility with prboom+, but it's a good start.

>>6929862
>But I didn't think much of it, because it's been years since I read Dredd the last time. I can remember details from Judge Child, Cal, Apocalpyse War and some others, but I couldn't tell you much about anything anymore.
why not brush up before modding, you might get inspired for other stuff

>>6928686
This is why I like demo recording; it's my own little archive of the runs I've completed, and if you use DOSBox/Crispy/PrBoom/etc then you or anyone can rewatch the demos later on. Also Doom Launcher saves your stats for maximum comfy, pic related

>>6929345
>The SJS should absolutely have black leather, though.
100%.
I think PSI would have looked cool with dark purple.

>>6928904
I prefer NBlood if I want a modern port, or DOSBox if I want the SoundBlaster MIDIs, but BloodGDX does have the advantage of customizable difficulty settings in which you can have the high monster count of high difficulties but not get instantly killed by hitscanners as well

>>6929915
Yeah, I should probably do that... At least I rewatched the 2012 movie last week. Maybe I should rewatch the Stallone one and grab some LAAWWWWW sounds from it.

>>6929459
I get what you're saying, but it's not actually a 100% chart, more just to see what I've already done so I can try something new. The lower difficulty options are mainly for the much tougher wads, but honestly pistol start runs on lower difficulties is comfy sometimes.

In addition to the chains I also started working on a badge. I am not sure whether it should be shown in full or just the top where the chain is fastened, so did a "complete" one. It's missing the wingtips but I don't know yet how to fit them in the space, and I am unsure about the amount of stars, because that's also something you don't necessarily see
consistent or at all in the comics. As for the judges name, their name is Yhew.

Feedback still appreciated.

>>6929470
This could be a perfectly fine layout for singleplayer but I can definitely see how poorly it would play in DM with all the detail snags, tight corridors, and dead-ends.

Either works, I just figured I'd mention it as another option for people who don't feel like downloading a separate mod for a simple function.

>>6930804
Fair enough. I just put it in my autoload when the need arises. Truthfully, I don't play GZDoom all that much these days.

>>6930576
Would it be possible, as a reference and/or as a goof to be able to drop the lawmaker and if an enemy touches it it then explodes? Kind of like a Hexen bomb? Obviously, kinda worthless as your guns gone for the rest of the map or whatever but it would be cool in like the last room of a map or something and as a goofy reference.

Also, melee weapons? Daystick/boot knife possible? As if you aren't busy with 30 other things judge anon.

>>6930841
That's actually a pretty cool idea, maybe make it a last resort thing when ammo is gone. I put it on my to do list.

As for melee stuff, currently there's just a KICK I made already years ago. It's also not that exciting, but daysticks and knives are neither... I'll put it on the list, but low priority.

Currently I am busy figuring out why the HUD always has at least a 1 pixel wide gap at the bottom, it's kinda annoying.

>As for melee stuff, currently there's just a KICK I made already years ago. It's also not that exciting, but daysticks and knives are neither...
Dude, GZDoom is EXTREMELY good at melee. We have several mods that had proven it. Hell, I've made an okay melee weapon with no experience at it.

i like carrying my weapons over to the next level

>>6930916
No you don't

>>6930891
Sure, it's not a problem of doability, but I don't feel like making more sprites atm, especially since the Lawgiver sprites do-over is still top priority.

> pistol start elitism is the new Utra-Violence elitism
Bruh.

>>6930647
I exclusively do it, I just think it's more fun. When you can enter a level with 200 health/armor and 600 cells for your BFG it fucks up the balanace, makes secrets less important, and makes weapon pickups irrelevant. With pistol start you're playing exactly how the mapper intended you to play (unless they're one of the few mappers who design explicitly around continuous, which is so rare I just assume pistol start until proven wrong by a complete lack of weapons).

>>6930873

Speaking of Pistol starts

how does that fare in other games?
lets say you want to pistol start each Serious Sam level like our big dick boy Decino, or shotgun start quake or pitchfork start Blood, how many pain killers do you need for those?

>>6930967
I think GZDoom loading the last (auto)save when you die warped people's views on this, especially if it's the only port they've played.

>>6930994
episodes 1 through 3 of quake are technically shotgun start feasible as each level was made individually, even if the game only normally has shotgun starts at level 1 of each episode
episode 4 is designed to be played in order with weapons carried over but is probably still possible but you won't have fun

>>6930994
I played pitchfork start Blood on Lightly Broiled and it worked really well, felt like the perfect amount of challenge and it allowed for some exciting chaotic map starts, haven't tried it on Well Done or Extra Crispy but as far as I know you'll most probably have trouble with ammo on those.

>>6931005
I hadn't thought of this but given how many people seem to have primarily or even only experienced GZDoom (fucking Gman) that's a very good explanation.

>>6930979
>HMP shitter is strawmanning
Dilate, shitter.

>>6930994
It depends on how quickly the map gives you something good to work with. The reason pistol starting Doom works is it's relatively easy to get a shotgun or other arms relatively quickly. Serious Sam and Build engine games usually have something similar if you know where the secrets are. A good litmus test is what does the game start you with when you load into a level from whatever level select option it has. If it's similar to a pistol start, it's doable. If it's instead same other basic equipment, it's probably not very workable.

>>6931005
Honestly, GZDoom is such a perversion of the Doom engine that I don't even consider it a proper way to play the Vanilla content anymore. It's a fantastic modding sandbox, though.

Quake is doable on shotgun start but it sucks considering how usually weapons only appear once in an entire episode.

>>6931047
shut up romero.
tell us about the holes.

>>6931041

>>6930967
I'm ok pistol starting after diying, but if you pistol start in every single map with no continuation from the previous map because you think "it's the definitive way to play" you have a severe mental problem.

>>6931070
Who's talking about definitive gameplay? It's just a fun challenge dawg. Stop being mad that some players aren't casual shitters like you.

>>6931070
What is wrong with extra challenge?

>>6929820
>will I be able to play vr's Blood maps with Fresh Supply?

Probably. I don't think most of the mappers will go overboard with special effects, that's to be determined though. They will be compatible with NBlood and BuildGDX for sure.

>>6931057
>Uhhh Tom, that wasn't weed

>>6930647
I went through 300mins of /vr/ a couple of years ago on pistol start and had a good time, but normally I just go through the game with all the guns and ammo I found on previous levels. For the original iwads it does make things very easy but I'm a shitter and it doesn't give me much of an edge on the more advanced wads.

>>6930647
I'll play the game continuous, but if i fuck up and can't load up a save I'll just pistol start as a mulligan

I have no idea why this is a response to my post, or how to respond myself.

Best to ignore.

What are some good wads for someone who has an average or slightly below average skill level? I find most recent wads seem to be designed for skilled players and are too tough for me,

>>6931209
doom the way id did

>>6931206
Sorry bro, being worried about how players better than you have fun makes you a casual shitter. Just take the L hombre.

>>6931209
Play wads designed for Doom 1 in particular. Doom 2 wads are harder by default just because that game is littered with troll monsters.

>>6931214
Already played through it, but thanks for the response. It's been a while since my last playthough though so that might be a good idea.

>>6931220
did u play fava beans?

I just read a bit in the Case Files... right after the Apocalypse War where Precious Leglock tried to build a robot city and the inception of the League of Fatties....
If I had more talent, I would do a LegLock boss and Fatties as enemies.

>>6931224
No, I'll check it out though.

>>6931225
Fatties = mancubus
projectile vomit

Best source port for Heretic?

>>6931232
Heh, I actually thought about just putting a wheel on a Mancubus... would still look shit.

>>6931238
lol that would work for me

>>6930647
Mostly if I want to play a specific map instead of a whole mapset. But sometimes I do the same as >>6931151

>>6930671
8bdm already includes mm7 and mm8 (converted to NES-like) so MMX probably.

>>6931235
Crispy Heretic if it would stop getting detected as a virus.

>>6931235
Theres crispy heretic if you want vanilla gameplay with higher resolutions and gzdoom if you want to play with mods or mapsets with modern features.
>>6931247
Chrome has been going crazy with the false alarms recently, cant even download a wad without it freaking out.

>>6931252
Put it into Virus Total, whatever CRDF is flagging it for some reason.

>>6931256
Even worse, windows just removes the crispy-heretic.exe no matter what.

If the Tome of Power was in Doom, what effect would it have for each weapon?

>>6930647
I tend to play continuous most of the time, but since I was testing pistol start doing my maps, it did give me some appreciation for how different it makes the challenge.
I figure I oughta give the full 2048 set a try on pistol start.

>>6931209

upload your playthrough of sunlust

>>6930882
I'm fine with you playing my maps continuous, I did put in a couple of concessions for that in my maps, give you some stuff by the end after you've been beaten up.

As long as you had a good time, that's what matters.

You're an autistic fartsniffer for caring about how other people play a wad. Don't bother trying to change my mind because I'm right

i would pisstart more if the pisstol wasn't such a piss sprinkler

Working concept for chain+badge. Tell me what you think.

There it was a time when Modeling for Q1 and Q2 was for those who really wanted it

Bless you, based Dredd-modder. I'm stoked to see how your project turns out!

What happened to that update of ProjectMSX for recent GZDoom builds?
I can't remember the name enough to google it by but I think people talked about it here

>>6931416
I'd raise the badge onto the screen in full, maybe connect the chain at the bottom of it instead?

>>6931493
>badge in full
That's what I was considering earlier, see >>6929862, but then I get the problem of where the chain goes (and what name to use, probably the bigger problem), but if I

Unironically based

40k Mortyr anon, how is the progress with the datamining?
it would be interesting to see if the weapons works in other games like Q2 or RTCW for future modding.

>>6931398
People don't pistol start because they like using the pistol. It's so you have an incentive to collect weapons and ammo again.

assessment: really good.

cheated for the icon of sin fight because i didn't want to do the level over again after i got telefragged.

How do you fix the mouse stuttering on PRBoom? It feels like it's snapping onto random places, feels horrible to play like this.

That's pretty slick. What is each segment in terms of value?

How do you get images and other metadata working with iwads in Doom launcher. It keeps trying to grab shit from idgames archive.

Reminder this is technically allowed in this thread

>>6931762
What is that? They finally made DoomKart?

>>6931762
Is that some sort of sonic themed mario kart knockoff coded in the doom engine? Am I having a stroke?

What do you guys think of Graf?

Precisely.

He can be abrasive but he doesnt really deserve the hate. Theres not that many people out there who have the knowledge/ability and are willing to develop a project like GZDoom for free.

Just that name is trash

>>6931553
you're some kinda ten-steps-ahead optimist, you know that? this ain't in my plans.

my primary interest is in getting a glimpse of a SP 40K stealth FPS. secondary interest is maybe stealing some textures for a Quake map eventually. ripping the models and porting the mechanics enters shaky territory, with GW having some notoriety for being dicks. and at this point in time, if you were to rip 40K models, why not rip them from Deathwing instead?
anyway, got the textures already, and so far the only mention of a playable SP version is a single reddit post. I am ready to fully drop the matter. the only reason I haven't yet is some anon offering help at the last thread's tail. for all I know that was just somebody fucking with me, though it's not like I expect a translation immediately on the spot.

>>6932043
the possibilities with this discovery are pretty big anon.

if only the models could be ripped, to check if they are vertex or bone

>>6932008
It's a spinoff of Sonic Robo Blast 2, which is a sequel to a game from 1998, their hands were tied if they wanted to keep the origin up front. Most people just call it Kart when in a situation when the other person would recognize what that is.

>>6932058
>check if they are vertex or bone
doesn't matter afaik.
skeletal can obviously be made to output vertex anims, and I think somebody (Chilo?) reconstructed skeletal anims by constraining bones to vertex anims.

>>6932008
It's actually very good, it keeps retards like you away from the game.

>>6932131
No u

Man Requiem setting is so fucking nice. Jank game but damn.

also, you need to use any compatibility option or you just run at default?

fukken books

>>6932206
Will the bonus episode still be included as an addon?

>>6932213
I'm considering what to do with that. I could just have it be a separate wad, included in the download. Or just leave it for the free version (it's not like I could or would delete that version from the world or anything)...
I dunno.

Using Eduke32 for now, and am wondering if it is possible to have complete vertical aiming (i.e. being able to look fully up and down, which I can't do even when autoaim is completely off) or is this just something I should get used do. And if hitscan autoaim is a good idea

>>6932298
I also keep on getting Z shaped screen tearing so y'know that's annoying

Explain

What's your preferred Quake difficulty between Nightmare and Hard? I've been doing comprehensive testing on my own, and it seems Nightmare makes encounters against grunts and enforcers more difficult/engaging/not a total pushover, but it has a knock-on effect of making the ogres, scrags, and sometimes death knights worse off. Conversely, Hard mode makes the latter mentioned much more interesting to fight - a horde of enemies with an ogre involved, if you don't focus on it, the ogre will continue to close the distance and perhaps get the jump on you with a chainsaw - but it makes grunts and enforcers a total non-issue. I'm just getting into Quake mapping, and I'm having a difficult time reconciling these two diametrically opposed standings.

>>6932298
There is a limit to how far you can look up, thats just how it is. I consider hitscan-only autoaim kind of cheating because it wasnt an option in vanilla and its basically enabling all the positives of autoaim without the cons. Just turn autoaim on or all the way off.

>>6928686
i do this for all mods i play these days, i include a short blurb describing what they are and if they're any good. helps me keep track of what i've already played and what's worth replaying more than anything else

>>6932396
Adding a field for personal notes sounds like a good addition, I think I'll do that too.

I played probably 2000 hours of Duke3D back in the 90's dialup days and the pistol is a death laser across large maps. If you disable hitscan autoaim it has the accuracy of Doom 2's ssg and becomes useless. I'm glad EDuke has the 'autoaim only for hitscan' option for Ion Fury because I noticed several times the shotgun would just fire through enemies and not hit them without it.

I consider it just an unfixable symptom of Build's inherent jank. You should be using Duke's pistol to snipe, the game is balanced expecting you to use it to pick off turrets and such.

>>6932447
Git gud scrub

>>6932339
Hard is more dynamic and looks more natural, so I usually pick that, though I go for Nightmare if there's a suggestion that the maps are designed for it (Zerstorer, Warp Spasm, Insomnia)

>>6931762
this game is so fucking good

>>6931589
I've heard a few people say this, but I downloaded the most recent (test) version and I've had no issues. Yeah, yeah - "works on my machine!" but I was wondering how common this problem was.

>>6932339
Hard. Nightmare just turns Ogres into limited range turrets.

Fukken ugly hand sprites

>>6932559
Right, but it in turn makes grunts and enforcers a literal non-threat. It's confusing as someone who wishes to map since I want to make ample use of the troopers, and the ogres.
>>6932478
Hmm, so what matters more is what the mapper intends, and the tricks therein endemic to either hard or nightmare.
