>Trust no one
>Not even yourself

Just played through Mordeth, and it's left me confused. Like, I don't get it.
The levels were nice (though fuck MAP05's key hunting), well-laid-out and nicely detailed, I'm not going to claim the wad is bad. But why is this the wad that people clamored for a sequel so badly that Mordeth became a meme? I don't mean that in a "2020 man not too impressed by wad from 1997" either, I've been playing through the 100 WADs list and when there are wads like Requiem and STRAIN being made at the same time this doesn't seem THAT good. Is there something I'm missing, some cultural factor lost to me?

>>7016968
Just meme factor for never coming out, I believe.

are there any good school shooter wads

>>7016968
Kind of the meme factor. As you say, the levels aren't bad, they're largely decent or good, but I think people figured it looked promising, and was hoping he'd follow through and actually make the full thing and that it would be something particularly good.

IIRC Mordeth said a few years back that the project wasn't dead, though I have no idea if that was in jest or not, considering that like 12 years ago, a burglar broke into his home and stole his computer, hence all that he had actually made for Mordeth (published or not), was then gone, and hasn't been recovered since. This was referenced in Action Doom 2 : Urban Brawl, where you can break into an apartment and steal said computer (which gives you 100,000pts).

Why do authors do this

Heh... Nothing personal, marine.

>>7017401
Because I think it's funny

Good news about retroquad, the guy is managing to fix the debt fuckery and maybe the Water shenanigans very soon!

>>7017401
So they can give you a warning instead of straight up popping enemies behind your back.

>>7017476
>warning
More like misdirection. If they wanted to warn players about incoming rear attacks they would put the monsters in a sealed closet they have to pass by in order to flip a switch. So you already know there's something behind you from all the noise.

>>7016968
Mordeth had quite unique theme for 97 with that whole swamps, castles and towns. Maps were atmospheric and comfy for the time. Requiem and strain followed more of the Memento Mori formula, which was essentially Doom 2, but with actually good maps.

Also there werent many wads which had custom monsters back then, but Mordeth was one of them. Only ones i can think of were Strain, Obituary and All Hell, and none of them really shined with map design.

The Mall is almost completed. Some details are to be added, then I might pack the stuff together and post here for people to playtest, as I am still unsure about the balance stuff.

Anyhow, here are the stores. Lower right is the convenience store authentic 20th century clerk that abuses you for loitering in his store without buying anything.

Now that Eternity has a custom weapon support, would Caverns Of Darkness be possible to be recreated/patched for Eternity Engine, or did the wad have other content that's still impossible to create with Eternity?

>>7017526
You should add a kiosk that sells bootleg BFG's (or the Judge Doom universe equivalent)

>>7017367
If they were that important they would've been backed up

I'm playing Alpha Accident: Terra Nova. Those custom crates aren't probably supposed to turn into Lost Souls, when you shoot them? I loaded it with deh patch, and it partially seems to work only partially. Could it be, that this is a deh patch, that isn't supported by gzdoom? Strange.

>>7017548
But that's illegal!
Also, if you look closely, you can see the BFG on a poster in the UAC recruitment office.

>>7017590
No one ever thought that Fucking hollywood and the Media indsutry would become so rabid because of the elections.

>>7017621
Not anything else Doom related, I hope?

>>7017621
Copyright vultures existed long before the current election my dude

>>7017348
Remove frames of animation from the attacks

>>7017526
This is a neat concept but I'm not sure about how fun that is to play as a DOOM level. Is it just a hallway with some dead end rooms? Maybe add interconnecting back rooms or a second floor or something.

>>7017647
this is the strange part, i don't remember any of TS videos having anything to take it down
Miraculously the Dwell stream is still there.

>>7017654
yes, but recently they went full retarded over everything.
but let this talk die out.

i hope they manage to retrieve it back.
even the QCDE tournament streams were there.

>>7017663


A reskin of Ion Fury with Judge Dredd, even inserting a story in between missions would work really well.

Anyway I congratulate that anon. Its still my hope one day we shall have a decent Judge Dredd game.

>>7017675
Dredd vs Death was decent. Do you mean a good Judge Dredd game?

>>7017676
Yeah you are right it was decent but it was so much a console shitter fps of that particular time, I hate them.

You know what I mean.

>BFG is retooled to work exactly like Doom 3’s

user made content sucks, I just replay the base games over and over.

>>7017663
It's more of a sandbox. But my approach is more open anyway, i.e. it's more about the enemies than about the actual level.
HOWEVER, I noticed that here the different roles of the ammotypes aren't really as pronounced as I would like them to be. It's certainly due to the fact that I've been working on this level for some time now and also further developed the gun, how I use enemies and other mechanisms, so the design doesn't reflect entirely what I am trying to do.

Pic related is the mall info point, there you can see the general layout of how the stores are laid out. Please note that this is not the whole level, this is just the publicly accessible stuff.

That said, I am terrible at mapping anyways lol.

>>7017663
Aw shit I didn't even read the second part of your post. I DO have a second floor and back rooms.

>>7017167
All aboard

That new Duke episode is not very good.

I didnt try it yet. The visuals look alright, whats bad about it?

from the reply my mod has:
>pistol becomes slower and gets a spinup mechanic
>shotgun is mostly unchanged, slightly resprited
>Obligatory flamethrower
>Dukestyle kick but instead of a kick it's quick fist.
Thats about it
Now to contribute to this a little bit

>The mod is a character mod, in which spouts random one-liners.

Damn TNT's midgame is so much better than Doom 2's, makes me regret not bothering to play past the first few maps of TNT before.

>>7017951
The funny thing is the critics thought it was great. The visuals and gameplay are way better than Tomb Raider. Shit probably wouldve sold like hotcakes if it the protagonist had t&a.

>>7017381
Every time you forget to remove [Embed] when making a new thread, I will add an extra [Embed] whenever it is I who makes the next thread.

>>7017128
this is our new board mascot
who is with me?

>>7017854
It's just very basic. The guy made it on a era pentium. Can't shit on it too much.

Might just be my end but it's dark as fuck can't see shit. Literally couldn't see anything in the second last level at all. Though he said it was designed for dos Duke so I dunno.

It's super vanilla but there were a few fun ideas.

>>7017951
Really? The impression I get from seeing people talk about it, and Civvie's video, is that Heretic 2 is a really good game, better than the first one. I got it in a bargain bin once but never bothered to install it.

Fucking hell, less than 30k, that's crazy low for the brand.

>>7018065
>>7017727
Really it's up them
have a fan art

>>7017970
TNT actually has a bunch of rock solid maps, but it's going to get pretty rocky in the last third. If you get hopeless stuck on Baron's Den, I can give you a hint later.

>>7017401
because demons who have the ability to teleport and are trying to kill a sonic speed marine probably would do things like that

>>7018095
Reminds me of this old flash game

on linux trying to play gzdoom with a controller but fsr it always thinks the right thumbstick is pointed straight up so i can't play at all without just looking at the ceiling the whole time or just disabling that axis which is lame. anyone having/had the same issue. nothing else i'm using the controller with has this issue so i don't think it's some calibration problem

>>7017968
>pistols can be used akimbo, are just slightly edited ROTT pistols with Doom gloves on top

>everything in the arsenal has insane smear and blur effects to accentuate movement
>weapon sprites aren't widescreen friendly, making them float around on the screen or have obvious cutoffs
>asset is just a complete import from R667 with no modifications at all

>>7018113
I can see where you come from
I prefer the second game more though

>>7018089
People wanted an FPS and were upset it was a third person action adventure game. If it had a different name I bet it would have sold better

What are all you niggers playing right now?
I'm doing Lost Civilization and Avactor, both are great, would recommend

>>7017795
What's up.

I also wanted to post how I decided to do the tally screen now.
I had asked a few threads before for suggestions how to treat "secrets" in this mod. Someone suggested hidden weapons/drugs caches, but I think that should be already contained in "Evidence".
During the making of the mall, I thought it would be cool to have civilians, and quickly I started implementing a hostage situation.
The whole thing right now is extremely hacky, as I still haven't managed to find out how StatScreen works, so I resorted to making the civilians trigger secrets on death, i.e. if no innocents die, you will get 0% "casualties", whereas with each dead civilian you will slowly make your way to 100%. In this case I managed to "save" them all. I hope I manage to one day understand the stat screen, but until then, that is how it is.
And yeah, the "finished" will also not stay red, once I figure out how.

People will really, genuinely play Complex Doom and love the shit out of it for some reason. Why?

>>7018182
Why do you care what other people like to do faggot

>>7018201
Why do you care that I don't get why people find randomizer wads fun?

>>7018178
Why not just make all secrets associated with rescuing hostages so it's a total percentage instead? Name it "Rescued Civs," "Civilians Saved," or something else so it's a bit more understandable. I just think it would be weird to not find all secrets and see Casualties at anything above 0% making the player think they killed an innocent or something when they just didn't find a secret.

>>7018205
Don't want a reply to your stupid question than don't post dummy

>>7018210
I hate to break it to you but I don't care if an internet tough guy is replying to my post. I genuinely just want to know what the appeal of Complex Doom is.

Holy fuck, there just was a boomer shooter thread on /v/ that reached 530 posts. Truly a sight to see.

>>7018208
Maybe I wasn't clear enough: There are no secret BESIDES civilians, which means the "casualties" counter will really ONLY rise when an innocent dies. Of course those encounters are set up in such a way that you usually can't fail them if you're not a retard, though I was thinking of doing something like a time limit where hostages die if you're too slow, or something like Human Revolution where you could defuse the poison gas bomb or not, so that the hostages would die.

>>7016895
OHHH GWAWD

EVERYONE STOP

JUST LEWK AT THIS MESS

TOUCH IT

TOUCHITTOUCHITTOUCHIT

ITS STONE FAWKIN COWD! IT DOID AGES AGO YEW DAWNKEI!!

>>7018227
Ah I see what you mean. Pretty neat idea then but I think it should still be a total of civilians rescued instead of civilians killed, if the internal logic can work out that way somehow.

>>7018240
Forgot to add why I think it should be a total of civilians saved: so that the player can easily keep track of all the civilians and which ones they've already saved.

>>7018240
I think it could work with making civs rescued the secrets (though that would mean doing some code stuffs), but my original reason was that there aren't always hostage situations, but there can be collateral damage, so a judge finishing the assignment with no casualties, i.e. all hostages saved if applicable AND no bystanders or pedestrians or tenants killed, is the ideal outcome; whereas people who might get hurt in the crossfire weren't originally in peril, thus having them not died wouldn't mean I you saved them.

>>7018251
I don't think I quite understand what you mean here.

>>7018259
Sorry for confusing you. I thought there were always going to be hostages in each level that act as secrets but you're saying that's not the case and killing innocents (directly or indirectly) would cause the casualty count to go up. I understand now please ignore my previous comments.

>>7017970
Wait till you get into late game. It's worse than Doom 2's mid. Great and essential wad nonetheless.

>>7018230

I often hear about how great doom/doom 2's monster sets are for the interesting combat encounters you can set up with different demon combinations. I don't doubt that's true, but does anyone have anything down in writing about what combos are good or bad, or what kind of resources are appropriate for dealing with X monster group, or anything like that? I think I'm basically asking if there's anything like a guide to placing monsters and items in a map that's more than just advising you to play maps people think are good and doing what they do. Does doom have any sort of formal theory of monster and item placement?

>>7018270
Ah, alright. I am sorry, I am also not good at thinking today, went to bed late and had to get up early.
So to be clear: *right now* civilians, be it as hostages or not, are basically substituting secrets until I figure out how to make the tally read other values. There will be no "secrets" here in the same sense as in regular Doom, but there will be some well-hidden evidence, which in a way could count as "secret" to get the 100%.
I would also like to have an actual assessment score, calculated from evidence found and casualties caused.
Also, the "Judgments" score is in its present form rather redundant, because you have to neutralize every single threat before you can finish the level anyway, but I haven't had any better ideas yet

>>7017401
>>7017496
>surprising the player is a bad idea
bruh. Git gud?

>>7018297
- Barons are doors with health
- Imps are annoying, but very deadly and exhausting in numbers
- Lost Souls fuck up your rocket launcher usage and by extension Pain Elementals become top priority threats
- Chaingunners are hitscanners with a large range. Turrets for suppressive fire or just in closets if you want to be a dick.

I can't think of any more right now.

>>7018292
YEW DUMB FAT MEATBOWW BITCH

YEW DOURNT EVEN HAVE AHNY AHMS YA MUPPET

GET OUT

>>7018297
Pinkies and archviles can be a threatening combo

>>7018297
>>7018315
Arch Viles are extremely great ways to tilt the entire balance of any encounter on its head. Imagine a room full of shotgunners and zombiemen opening, and then midway through it, an Archvile and two cacodemons pop out. Now EVERYTHING has fucking changed.

The thing about Doom theory regarding items and monsters is that it's honestly really malleable based on which monster comes out at what point, at what distance, and so on. The best example of a sandbox in Doom imo is Plutonia, because the monsters are used in so many different roles to the point the wad almost feels like a puzzle rather than combat, and I fucking love it for that. If you want another one to check out, FreeDoom's latest versions have some very run of the mill encounters, but their older versions, specifically Map 10 in version 0.6.4, have some very painful ones that showcase the best and worst places to use monsters.

>>7018297
doom2 bestiary is IMO the real key to the longevity. weird AI quirks with endless interesting combinations.

what other games feature infighting so prominently?

seriously it's just nuts. sometimes cyberdemon is easy, sometimes it's lethal, sometimes it crucial to suviving you (rocket turret takes out everyone else)

side note, i'm playing through hell revealed again

so pure and brutal.

also lol barons

>>7017795
playin through it with High Noon Drifter.

it's more fun

How is the leaked build of Unreal Championship 2? Does it play well or does still need some fixes?

>>7018409
All the UI is scaled to 480p. No sound on modern systems. Mouse controls are basically unusable as sensitivity is all over the place. Super smooth framerate at least.

I want to say there was at least one guy working with it but I have no idea if anything new has come of it. Probably not a wise idea to keep posting updates of stolen game property. Maybe some day someone will silently leak out a proper full PC build.

>>7017795
reportin

>>7018175
Is this achievable natty?

>>7018297
The holy trinity of making challenging encounters without going slaughter is the chaingunner, revenant and archvile.
Chaingunners are high-danger hitscanners who force the player to take cover if they can't immediately take them out; placing them at enough of a distance that the player can't just SSG them encourages more diverse weapon usage, and placing them in conjunction with other, more immediately dangerous monsters allows you (the mapper) to control space by limiting the player to areas where they can't be hit, or otherwise force the player to prioritize the chaingunner while weaving around the other monsters.
Revenants remove the player's ability to just strafe through projectiles, and in conjunction with straightforward projectiles creates a much more dynamic field. Their high damage potential makes them similarly high profile targets as turrets, or as pursuing enemies due to their high speed. Their main weakness is the capacity to infight by steering their homing rockets, but you could use homogenous monster variety or place them separate from the other monsters to mitigate that if you want to.
Archvile is the highest-priority target in the majority of encounters you make, for reasons >>7018343 has said better than me.

Besides that:
Pinkies/spectres are good at controlling space; they're easy to avoid on their own but a group of them in conjunction with a high-health enemy like a baron/mancubus/etc. can force the player to ignore a more immediately dangerous enemy to thin the herd lest they be boxed in.
Shotgunners are burst damage, good tools to keep the player on their toes between larger fights or to apply less aggressive pressure than chaingunners. Zombiemen are generally not dangerous and can just be used as fodder, while imps provide larger danger in groups than either due to the lack of infighting. Groups are more dangerous in the early parts of levels if you withhold the SSG (always build your levels around pistol start primarily)
(1/2)

>>7018297
>>7018474
Mancubi, arachnotrons and stationary cyberdemons all apply different flavors of pressure, creating dangerous forces up close and something to make the player aware of their surroundings on the sidelines of fights. Generally anything not hitscan will be treated as lower priority by the player when placed outside the immediate fighting arena compared to what's in the player's space.
Barons can be used as doors with health level anon said, but also serve as mini-bosses in setpieces due to their stay. Hell knights are similarly good, consider replacing some barons with knights if barons would make an encounter lopsided and take too long to kill.
Lost souls are similar to pinkies but more dangerous due to their charge and flight; pain elementals are because of that high-priority, but their nature makes it more difficult for the mapper to lock down how the encounter will play out, and easier for a bad situation to spiral out of control (ESPECIALLY if an enemy aggros them). Use sparingly if the rest of your encounter is particularly large.
Spider masterminds aren't very good; their size makes it impossible to use them in most practical ways, you have to design the setpiece entirely around the mastermind. I can't give any advice with them.

just finished memento mori man thah map 28 is hard and long and keeps you on the edge of the seat, loved it. mm on the whole was pretty fun, i enjoyed playing maps looking like doom maps and not these ornate majestic constructions they make nowadays (i like those too dont get me wrong). imma be playing mm2 but recc me more essential boomer wads bros

>>7018492
Requiem is essentially Memento Mori 3 and it's better than the first two. MAP23 of Requiem in particular is one of the best maps I've ever played

for sure man thanks

>>7017795
Scourge of Viscerus was great. Some anon recommended it to me.

>>7018492
Seconding Requiem the other anon said. Then there's essential hard wads of the day: Hell Revealed 1 and 2, Scythe 1 and 2 and Alien Vendetta. Strain, All Hell and Obituary for classic dehackery work with new monsters and weapons. Crusades and 2002 Doom Odyssey for excellent Doom 1 wads. Phobos Anomaly Reborn, Caverns Of Darkness and Mordeth for atmospheric map sets (with classic gameplay). CoD had it's own dos source port, but later zdoom patch was made. (Hope we get Eternity Engine version one day too.)

Then there's Eternal Doom 3, if you don't mind gigantic maps with long switch hunts. Back in the day, that wad was one of most revered though. I think that those castle enviroments look quite nice to this day.

And also try Darkening 1 and 2. Decent map sets, and second one had nice textures.

>wanted to gift someone a steam key for the new eternal DLC

The bethesda.net key is standalone thankfully, but since they have the base game on steam I'd rather not make them use Todd's launcher.
Cant gift directly though steam due to region lock, and every other key selling site sells the bethesda.net version.

Aaaand there's G2A, not sure if the global steam key they sell there is legit, I heard horror stories about G2A, I'd rather not use it.

What to do anons?

Other than that, I played a crapton of Hideous Destructor on GZDoom this week, is it just me or did Matt fuck up the wight limits?

I played Cubic Worlds, but had to stop at map 6, because i felt bad for killing babby cacodemons. :(

Does GZdoom movement have acceleration? I just did the map in eviternity where you fight a cyberdemon in close quarters and it felt like I had to slow down and speed up whenever I switched directions. Is that just doom movement and I've gotten use to quake/build movement?

>>7018615
The only encumbrance thing Matt changed recently was Brontornis bolts being way lighter than what made sense. They weigh the same as a rocket grenade now.

>>7018643
Probably.

>>7018653
Probably what? Probably it's a GZdoom thing or probably it's just a difference between build/quake and doom?

>>7018660
The latter.

AV is one of my favs and I've played Scythe 1 also pretty cool. eternal doom 3 was on my radar already cause i played eternal doom 4 and found it very comfy to get lost in these huge ass environments. guess ill go with Requiem next for now, thanks a lot for the suggestions.

Does anyone have the doomworld post listing WADs to play in order to get gud? A link or an image is fine.

i was playing lots of dhewm3 custom maps lately and o men, i would love to see a new era of mods like all the quake 1 jams but for doom3, i really started to like the slow paced and scary feeling of dark and feeling vulnerable it gives, sadly they went full brutal doom with 2016 and eternal, but i really like doom3 lately

Do any of the known/good mappers for Doom and Quake stream themselves mapping?

the only acceptable texture where the shiny lighting looks cool. (to me)

It's almost finished dudes, I've just got to finish up some areas and detail a bit and were all set. Expect to play this map on the 31st!

>>7019208

use SQL2 to load stuff, nothing against the mod tabs but this one is straight to the point
there are times like this that i wish that Quaddicted still had their Q2 and Q3 stuff from the days of hotel
A injector for it would be nice

also the links for the original and classic Quake Launcher, which had even MP in it died, which is the real tragedy

>>7019236
I appreciate it man. Don't feel bad about dropping out, everyone's got shit too deal with and Build mapping isn't for everyone.

How hard is it to get into build engine mapping? I remember a couple years ago i was able to make a doom level of my house pretty easily in under a week, and that included watching videos and stuff.

>>7019502
I agree (I'm the first anon you responded to), but if you treat it like an assault rifle it comes in handy, especially against low tier demons. I wish it behaved more like Wolf3D's chaingun but WADs like Valiant change that behaviour.

>>7018315
>Imps are annoying, but very deadly and exhausting in numbers
literally never, unless all you have is a pistol or a shotgun.

Another note on PEs, knowledgeable players will run straight to it in an attempt to block its hitbox, so as to stop it from spawning lost souls. You can use this to your advantage, as a mapper. Reading what most players would logically do in a situation is a good idea, always.

>>7018297
Don't use Pinkies as much as people often do. Their attacks are avoidable, they're walking meat walls. They're only ever deadly in high numbers, in small areas with not much place to run to.

Use every enemy sparingly, honestly. Revenants are greatly versatile (probably the most of all), but if you use too many of them in your level, that's just cheap, and at worst, annoying. Same goes for Archviles.

As for a general encounter design tip, don't make the player rely on taking cover too much, especially behind doors -- don't have all enemies in a different room the moment you open the door leading to it, that'll just generate "door combat": the player will stand next to the door, sniping every enemy in the room until it is clear. This has its place, but it's not good when it's noticeable.

>>7018297
Play some good Doom 2 megawads/mappacks. Whitemare 1 or 2 are good. They really show you how to mix and match enemies to keep things fresh and engaging.

>>7019562
Not to be a dick, but I explicitly asked for advice that wasn't "play X." I'm a retard and prefer things in a cut and dried, written format. I don't absorb useful advice from actually playing good WADs, I just play them and think "that was good." I guess if you could explain how to play a WAD with an eye to using it for lessons that would help too.

>>7019569
Sounds like a disorder to be desu. Can't help you.

>>7019509
Its at least 5x slower than Doom mapping because the editor is so shitty. Everything is hotkeys, no mouse UI. But its not impossible.

>>7019580
It's fine, I'll live. Thank you for the suggestions for the WADs.

I just finished running through the Downtown Journey episode, and I largely agree with this anon. It does a good job maintaining a gloomy urban atmosphere throughout, and it has its moments. I thought the last level (the footy stadium) was particularly well designed, and the mall and train levels were both fun novelties, although both were flawed. For a serious Duke fan it's worth killing an hour on, but it just barely passes muster. And it aches for a music swap - the Lunar Apocalypse tracks don't work very well with these levels (with the exception of "Aliens Say Your Prayers" which goes with everything).I edited the CON file to use the urban tracks instead.

>>7019668
I start light, but the moment I find a Vulcanette, I am heavy weapons guy.

I'm trying duke3d for the first time. Running it with eduke32. The map is too dark in some areas, and I can't understand what duke is saying. Any advice for settings?

I've been dicking around with the reverb environments in GZ. Has anyone made a list of recommended reverb settings for each level in Doom 2?

>>7019858
Every. Single. Time. Medkit didn't stop the bleeding at all. Armor's even more useless than ever. Shit mod.

>>7019910
are you taking your armor off before trying to use the medkit? you can bandage with armor on, but a medkit is much faster at stopping bleeding.

Is there a list of recommended Blood mods aside from Death Wish?

>>7019910
After bandaging you have to sit around with your thumb up your ass for like a minuet or so or else you'll bleed again. If the wound is too bad you'll have to medkit, endure the ERHOOHERG then sit and wait some more till the screen stops flashing.

Use a stimpak

>Shit mod.
Problem is all this shit is deliberate. Luckily the newest version has a bunch of user friendly options, new issues aside its really slick and polished as all fuck

Watch this if you're in need of some motivation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ydHdGMQ4Iw&ab_channel=Vulkan

>>7019910
If you're bleeding, take your armor off, use the medikit's staple gun until you stop bleeding, pick up your armor and make sure you put it on.
Bandages are very situational in their usefulness.

>>7016895
Anyone got more screenshots of Quake with Unreal-like texture dithering?

>>7020118
I'll post some later

>>7020118
>Unreal-like texture dithering?
?

>>7020219
he probably means retroquad, it's in the news post. dithered translucent water, clean lightmaps, filtered textures, smooth particles. I'll post a trimmed version as well.

>>7020226
tfw couldn't get Retroquad to work at resolutions higher than 320.

>>7019684
In the last level he had those aliens but in red jackets and they shot triple shots at you. Which I found was pretty cool. Made them more of a threat if they do 3x damage. Why weren't they in any other levels?

Also he gave the big brained octupus a bite melee attack.

>>7019859
Where is it too dark? Some places are supposed to be dark on purpose like the area in the porn store on level two.

Just up the game .10 or so and increase the visibility to push back that light banding shit. I hate that shit.

>>7020347
I'm okay with dark areas, but if it is pitch black to the point where I get trapped in rooms because I can't find features, then it's a problem. I've only played and beat the first level. I'm either bad or am too far away from my screen.

The other issue is about not really being able to hear Duke's lines. His quips are totally novel to me, and I am under the impression that they are a key strength for the game.

>>7020352
Also, are there some doors that only open one way so that you have to move backward while opening them?

>>7020352
Nowhere in the first area should be even close to pitch black or even dark. Play around with the gamma/brightness/visibility settings.

Are you using software or polymer rendering? Also Duke is all about interactivity. There's light switches you can turn on in rooms sometimes if they're too dark.

Dukes audio? Hmm... Play around with the khz settings maybe? Are you using latest eduke32? Where did you get your Duke files from? Like a gog torrent? The 20th anniversary has fucked voice audio.

As for one way doors? No they don't exist. Doors will often be locked and unlockable only from the other side where you need to find and alternative route around but doors should open normally if unlocked. Thought doors can be wonky on build engine. You can even get killed opening doors.

>>7020118
I didn't know Unreal could do that. Then again, I don't think I ever played it in software. Doesn't it also have those detail map things?

>>7020352
Being unable to hear the quips of any Build protagonist has always been an issue for me as well, but I always assumed it was some issue with what version of the games I downloaded. I played through Blood with GDX some time ago and Caleb was almost silent even at higher volumes.

>>7020374
Alright. I've probably spent about 30 minutes play it it so far. It's good to know that it is likely an issue and that there might be a solution. I yoinked it from the mega in the OP. As far as my eduke version... I'll have to figure that out later. There are graphical glitches even on the title and splash screens. Might be exclusive to my distro, version, etc.

The doors aren't one-way but, they are a pain in the ass at times to go through if I backtrack. Entering, they swing out, so progressing is no issue. If I return to the are, they still swing the direction--inward this time-- and they catch on duke.

>>7020386
Duke is a little quiet. But, I would say that it seems more unintelligible and garbled than anything else. Like, the audio quality isn't good enough.

>>7020391
Oops, I forgot to add a screenshot. This is what it looks like to me. Oh, and the graphic bugs are absent in polymer mod. I think I might try software rendering, because I've been using OpenGL

>>7019758
The 40k Terminator. I have no idea how long I've been trying to find this, it was one of the last Q2 models I wanted but couldn't find, and my last lead on it was a couple years back, with a dead download link on a part of quake2.com that I don't remember how to access. And to think it was on gamers.org the whole time.
Thanks for this. I know Quake 2 isn't the most well-received, but it's nice that people are maintaining and keeping track of this ancient stuff for archival's sake. Hey, maybe I'll even find those old Generations models too.

Lol I used to have that model. You really wouldn't believe the hundreds of models, skins and custom pak9 files for quake 2. I was there back in the day grabbing them all. There was one huge repository for them, cant remember the name though.

Also Rosharch was the best skin artist in the world.

>>7020392
Crank the gamma up dude. I play on 1.20 sometimes 1.30

>>7020429
It might just be where I'm looking, but it seems like the Quake game with arguably the most multiplayer-centric mods is the hardest to find custom playermodels for.
Quake 1 only had limited skin support through QW, but I found a bunch through the Wikia and random image searching.
Quake 3 didn't feel like the kind of game people would've made this stuff for, yet Worldspawn has almost 200 pages worth of it.
But I've built up a bit of a collection in recent years.

A different time. A better time.

They should have had that as a temporary power-up in the game.

Marathon had satisfying punches though since the power of the punch depended on how fast you were moving. It feels really good running into an enemy and then killing them with one punch.

its well received and praised as fuck, its only revisionism made by the alfs of the Celephais and RPG Codex who used to post here, and it had tons over tons of content for years, but the source code for animations is a mess due to the last minute changes though the rest is literally the most basic of C language, people moved from it to Q3A, and the community has no central place to reunite, plus its divided inbetween slavs and everyone else.
Nothing that can be fixed by changing the code for it but no one besides knightmare or some random Q2Pro forks wants to do that, if someone could do like the Q1 source ports and make a new system for it that uses modern stuff like bones, would be great even for a remodeling to remove the vertex wobbling and gun Position issues since the game has it with along with the gun interpolation

>>7020309
The octobrains could always bite. Also the red guys show up in the 2nd level (Bus Depot) too - and I agree they’re cool.

>>7020717
Also the Default game has a retarded and somewhat a hardcoded limit for pcx texture sizes and md2 meshes.
i've tried to convert Turic's High poly Shotgun into it but the game dies out saying that the gun has tons of vertices.
while focalor's models which uses Tabun's models from Generations Arena doesn't it.
also the guns look good using nearest filtering

all because the source ports never got rid of the dreaded limits due to puritanism towards patch 3.20

>>7020814
ah ok, was gonna manually draw the pickup sprite for pic related but figured pixelating it would be easier

>>7020501
Two shells at once are better than one shell followed by another - you'll reliably drop ninja pirates, cacodemons, and revenants with one doubleshot where two shots from the hunter won't always cut it. Slayer's also more maneuverable, has a more consistent reload speed, and can be kept in a backpack. Generally, it's better than the Hunter for all the situations you should be using a shotgun for, while the situations that the Hunter is better at are better approached by weapons that aren't shotguns.

SS2 is a fucking classic.

The amazing LGS sound design and atmosphere is still there.

Dont forget while playing however its a pionnner game much like SS1. So certain jank is expected.

>>7020940
Surprisingly i didn't, i might as well put them in
Thanks for the recomendations.

>>7020118
>>7020760
alright, here's a slim retroquad repack for anyone interested:
https://mega.nz/file/dTpCwYiB#i1qzHwAiBc6AJHcczgLcmDCWcJmUs_2vZUAc9zNkNf4

a couple more shots

doesn't load some of my favs though, hits the oldschool entity and model precache limits. no bsp2 either.

Or did you play it OG without mods

>>7020970
No I am must have already played SS2 like 100 times, and Thief like 500 times.

Its okay, I am not anal about textures mods. I especially love how clean and competent visual design and textures are in SS2.

Some weapons replacers are kinda wonky I avoid those.


Its open hell of an adventure with really nice characters that shit all over stuff in the new Prey, or Dead Space comparisons.

Just be careful with builds, and start as a marine with some hacking first. Never do a first run as a psionic or invest in it.

>>7020970
texture replacers for SS2 are less offensive than most, since a lot of textures are flat colors, lines & text (hard to fuck up).
model replacers are pretty bad and stick out, kinda like the ones for DX1.

Has there ever been an attempt to fix the monster's in Blood so you can't render them harmless by crouching?

>>7021050
Well, you can just limit yourself and not crouch.

It's for the Doomworld October mapping event. I think we gave out a link here before we got started, so it wasn't necessarily a closed project, we've just been quiet about it to let the Blood project breathe.

what do i do with .acs script files for GZdoom wads/mods?

>>7021214
Like, packed alongside a wad or pk3 or what? Usually .acs are compiled scripts

Has anyone played Realms of Haunting? Never heard of it till I saw ADG recent review of it, but it looks like an adventure game with FPS combat, the sprites and animations for the weapons are pretty cool, especially the shotgun. Theres a giant musket too. The enemy sprites are also very nice. Has anyone ripped these and used then in any DOOM wads? This seems like a goldmine.

>>7021050
How is modding the weapons/enemies of Build games done? It would be neat to tinker with.

>>7021338
The resources are on the zdoom forums.
The game... I kind of liked it for a while, but then I found it extremely repetitive and ended up giving up on it. Maybe I should try it again sometime.

>>7021339
Depends on the game. Duke (and games based on it like Redneck Rampage and Ion Fury) has CON scripts that you can edit to completely change how they behave and add new stuff. Blood has a limited animation scripting system, Im not sure how it works but I doubt it could change the enemies like that. Shadow Warrior isnt moddable at all beyond replacing sprites/sounds.

>>7021352
The controls sound like a nightmare but ADGs review mentioned there is a patch to change them. The weapon and enemy sprites and animations are really good though, would love to seea modder make use of them.

>>7021338
I did like 10 years ago. It has some really comfy places but I wish the game was more puzzle adventure than shooting.

Either way way ahead of its time.

Ross did a great vid on it.

>>7021396
Oh, based. Watching it now, this was an episode I skipped because I thought it was just some horror game, didn't know it was a shooter till I saw ADGs video. Thanks.

>>7021412
Could have been a great classic, It certainly had some love poured into it. But its jank at places.

What do people use these days to play doom online? Ive been out of the loop for years.

>>7020961
Right? I was just thinking the exact same thing, I love dithering, and I wish I was good at doing it in my sprites, but I'm not.

>>7021412


I know this as nothing to do with classic FPS, or Doom.

But one of my dream game ideas would be to look back to games like Myst series, Atlantis from Cryo interactive , those weird adventure games from the 90s, and create now with robust fps engines, the next level.

More down to earth relaxing games, women loved them. Focus on atmosphere and sound above all.

When is the Quake Halloween Jam out? I need some holiday themed stuff to play.

>>7021428
still zandronum. or zdaemon, i guess. same shit in the end.

>>7020823
I'm doing some detailing and enemy placements.

By the way, what skill do you guys play Blood on?

>>7021743
I play on Lightly Broiled. Well Done is too much for me.

>>7021743
Just realized I'm retarded, I misspelled "fiery".

>>7021743
>max enemies
>max damage
>low health
I think it's fun

>>7020950
thanks

>>7021743
LB for casual enjoyment of the game, WD on a second run if I really want to and I know where the enemies/secrets generally are

>>7020759
it's a hourences texture pack for unreal

>>7021743
Well done after practice, is perfect for me. I can get away with one error and continue playing with minimal save scumming.

>>7019787
I got wrecked when I first got into it so I messed with some settings to ease into it, things like disabling bleeding and trying maps I knew with the least amount of monsters spawnable.
Once it clicks, it clicks. I just love the way everything works, especially the weapons.

>>7021743
I'm too addicted to custom difficulty settings. I always prefer max enemy spawns, normal enemy health, and I waver between normal and increased enemy damage.

Speaking of HD, are those anons still here that wanted to try out this weapon?

>>7021743
Custom difficulty in which enemies have the same placement as in EC, die quickly, have medium accuracy but I also die quickly

>>7017795
Present.

>>7021957
source of it anon

>>7021685
seconding this, its supposed to be out sometime today, im waiting eagerly

What kind of marine force sends people across portals with just a shotgun and a hatchet?

>>7021353
I guess that emails why I've never seen any good maps for Shadow Warrior like I have for Duke or Blood.

Hosting a MM8BDM server with /vm/ for the V6 launch, would love for you guys to join
Server name is /vm/8BDM, it's vanilla DM with no mods

bro I'm literally dead here! Y'all folks are 2 funny!!! Cld you post more in this thread bc they so good! Mind if I retweet?

Any good idclip speedruns?

any coomer mods

>>7022062
Well it is still possible to map for. There was a pretty damn good SW map a few years ago called Showdown In Suzhou.
>>7021957
Ha, that is a great lineup.

>>7022268
I'm not Eric but Hideous destructor makes me erect

>>7021428
Basically the same. Zandro is the most populated, zdaemon is for the occasional tourneys, and Odamex is barren.

>>7016895
Zoomer playing Blood fresh supply on well done for the first time as a Halloween game. How the FUCK do you play this?

>>7022350
Swallow your pride and play Lightly Broiled if you haven't played it before, at least for the first episode

>>7022350
By pressing buttons on your keyboard and moving your mouse. Alternatively, by lowering the difficulty to Lightly Broiled since Blood is really unforgiving.

>>7022363
>>7022368
Shouldn't Well done be like Ultra violence like DOOM?

>>7022385
Original Doom is a walk in the park in comparison to Blood, so no.

>>7022385
No, Blood is a completely different beast.

>>7022385
UV on the original Doom maps is fairly easy compared to most games "hard" difficulty, especially if you're playing continuously (with your guns each level) and using saves. If I'm not mistaken, Well Done and Extra Crispy were intentionally designed as co-op difficulties too, so you'd be playing the game closer to how it was intended for a single-player experience, even if it is a bit easy after the first episode.

>>7020823
Redoing the entire first encounter since it became dated for what I was trying to do.

>>7021874
>Disabling bleeding
Fuck me why didn't I think of that.

I require 90s fps reaction images, please and thank you.

>>7022350
You uninstall it and don't listen to people here. The games trash. Microsecond hitscanners taking 40% of your health isn't fun it's bad game design.

Having to learn the location of every enemy in a map via trial and error in order to avoid getting insta sniped is retarded. Literally no other FPS works like this.

Avoid.

>>7022409

>>7022413

>>7022413
It's too late anon, Im on lightly broiled.
>>7022397
The game has Co-op? How does that even work?

>>7022413
I get that this is bait but the cultists really aren't that bad. If you don't learn to expect them around every corner after the first level then that's on you. Movement also throws their shots off unlike Doom where the hitscanners always have the same RNG chance of hitting you.

>>7022409

>>7022432
Same way it works for Doom, Duke, Hexen, etc.

>>7022385
This may shock you, but it's actually not Doom. Its an entirely different, original game from a different studio. The title not being Doom is a subtle hint to this.

Yeah, more reasons for either Amazon HQ in San Francisco to get PUMMELED THE FUCK to ruins when the next big Earthquake happens, or Justin Kan, one of the founding members to step up and raise money to buy Twitch back from Jeff "meglomaniac asshat" Bezos, whichever comes first.

>>7022575
Who made that man a marine!?

>>7017367
If they weren't backed up then that's just stupidity on the uploader's part. I get that this is sad, but if archival means enough to you, you'll be prepared.

So these hostages just die?

>>7022670
Well it ain't your fault they were standing in front of that train, you're just the guy with the gun. Also why do you have 2 fps counters?

So what's up with Atari and Blood's rights? Why are they holding it hostage?

>>7022676
Maximum accuracy.

>>7018737
I can honestly say I never really considered playing on anything other than a PC. It just doesn't seem like as good of an experience when a game goes portable.

>>7022409
>needing that much framerate for a game made before 2001.

are there any dehacked weapon sprites to use with prboom/crispy? preferably something that doesn't change gameplay or stats and is not smooth weapons

Why do Half Life, Quake 2 and Turok make you seethe?
