TO SUBMIT NEWS, REPLY TO THIS POST

>>7116863
*also final news item should appear at the top as it is most recent, my bad

>>7116767
Like I said, the enemies did have some unique aspects. The Armageddon Beast was sort of Mancubus-like, higher-HP and shoots projectiles radially while remaining relatively stationary due to slow speed. Would have offered something different from the usual ranged enemies that shoot at you instead of around you.

The Hunter Hound was supposed to be a super fast melee enemy whose balance was that it couldn't climb stairs. Apparently it was cut because they couldn't find places that would make him fun, though I think it would have been great in certain pits or otherwise flat areas, e.g. hide a couple under the railings in the open sections of G4 Sunbathing, or in the lower-right room in Neither High Nor Low. Or they could have just removed the stair limitation and let it zerg-rush the player; was probably less fun back in those days of slower gameplay/reaction times overall.

I wouldn't call the Cyborgs pure fodder btw, at least not in maps with limited movement space. Locking-on grenades and they're too heavy to blast around with explosives, which makes them more difficult longer-range enemies than most.

>>7115395
>>7115384
Source?

>>7116873
Search Dusk Dude Caleb on Google Image Search and a bunch of his art comes up. I think this is the same guy.

Name a worse enemy than these assholes

A decent and relatively unknown FPS from Apogee. (Unknown compared to Wolf3D, DOOM, Duke, etc.) It's sort of in-between Wolf3D and Duke3D. It has some cool new features, such as choosing different characters at the beginning of the game, each of whom has unique abilities. But at times they don't seem to work together all that well. For example, there's too much platform jumping. Some people love this game, presumably due to its aesthetic, but I personally wasn't that excited about it. It doesn't feel as smooth as Doom. Some great ideas here though, and definitely unique.

>>7116892
https://twitter.com/S20_TBL

>>7116876
If all of that is true then it's a bit sad they got cut. The transition to M1 to M2 added the shotguns (great), cyborgs (good) the flickta (useless). The drones don't count because they're just reskinned wasps. I wonder if Bungie just got lazy when it came to making new stuff. I would be interested in someone doing a rebalancing mod for enemies for M2/M:I
>I wouldn't call the Cyborgs pure fodder btw
I mentioned them but I called them tanks. I don't know why but I've always called them that even though they're called cyborgs in the game files.

>>7116928
Unsure how I feel about this

https://youtu.be/xt-oB6DMPD0 When the rott soundtrack kicks in

>>7116940
Damn that's pretty happenin'. Well done ROTT shill, I'll dl it this weekend.

>>7116943
https://github.com/LTCHIPS/rottexpr Only ROTT source port worth using. Has proper widescreen and some QoL fixes, but requires some setup tinkering.

>>7116912
They would've been less annoying if the game's damage system isn't fucked.

It is disappointing that none of the Blood expansion packs or even Death Wish have new weapons. Are there any mods that add them?

>powerslave
What a terrible game. I liked the concept of replaying old levels with new abilities but it was still really bad

>>7116985
Extra crispy for Fresh Supply only.
Though, that mod is a uninspired Brutal Doom clone.

>>7116954
>Blitzguards being outfitted with any weapon from the missile/magic weapon arsenal! Yes, that means Blitzguards can use excalibats too!
Oh that sounds interesting

>>7116989
Fuck you, its based.

Anyone have the high res version of this cover but where he is holding the pistol?

>>7116936
I unironically think that the enemy drones in Marathon 1 (the grey machinegun ones with grenade launchers equipped) are the single hardest enemy of the entire series. They're like souped-up troopers with extra armor that can fly and operate on patrols. I beat the game Total Carnage for the first time a few months ago and I died more on Beware of Low-Flying Defense Drones than any other level. They should have brought them back for a couple of Infinity flashback levels or something.

In Bungie's defense, Marathon 2 came only 9 months after the original's release, and that came with four completely new texture sets, totally redesigned enemies, an expanded level set, and a lot more plot.
>I mentioned them but I called them tanks. I don't know why but I've always called them that even though they're called cyborgs in the game files.
I thought you were referring to the juggies, but now that you mention it, I called them tanks when I was a kid as well because of the treads, kek. Also used to call the S'pht 'witches'.

>>7116989
The hitboxes from enemy projectiles are ridiculous, and some of the levels (before you get flying) have some pretty tedious jumping puzzles. If it wasn't for those two things it'd be really good.

>>7117025
>The hitboxes from enemy projectiles are ridiculous
Did you play with PowerslaveEX? I noticed that using its higher FOV option makes collision feel wrong.

>>7117008
It's great don't get me wrong but it's not clear where to go when you get a new powerup, call me a zoomer idc but replaying every level to find where your gay lava boots work at isn't really fun

>>7117046
the PS1 and EX versions have broken hitboxes for projectiles.

>>7117023
Man I am fucking lost in Marathon 2. It's got to only be the second or third mission, theres this doorway cut out of above water, you go up there and flip a switch and come back down in the water. There is some swimming parts too. But I don't know what the fuck to do now I feel like I am going in circles. Do I have to go all the way back to the beginning of the map and use that computer to talk to the AI again or do you find another one? This is the first Marathon game I have played I don't know if backtracking like that is common or I am just retarded

>>7117059
Gonna need a name for the level
>This is the first Marathon game I have played I don't know if backtracking like that is common or I am just retarded
Oh boy you're not going to understand shit when it comes to story, especially when you reach Marathon: Infinity

>>7117059
Is it a sewage level, Charon Doesn't Make Change? Teleporter terminals that bring you to more teleporter terminals? The exit terminal is close to the start terminal but it's not the exact same one.

>>7117053
The Build version is unironically the best

>>7116989
It's not the same kind of shooter at all, but have you played Metroid Prime? It also has you backtracking to old levels with new gear.

>>7117075
>>7117072
Maybe, yeah Ill have to look. I watched Examined Life of Gamings Marathon video and Errant Signals Marathon episode of his Children of DOOM series, both pretty long form reviews that go over alot of the story.

>>7117057
I meant it felt much worse on higher FOV than the default.

I still maintain that the marathon community needs to get its shit together on a level editor.

>>7117094
To be honest the story of M1 is a bit disconnected from the stories of M2 and MI, but it's still important to know things like who the Spht are and stuff like that which isn't explained unless you played M1.

>>7117106
Weland actually got a very big update recently. The big issue is that Aleph One is very much lacking when compared to what you can do in say, gzdoom. I can easily create a cool level in Marathon but I can't do colored lighting, 3D architecture, slanted floors, etc.

>>7117119
Nice!

>>7117106
It all comes down to if it's a worthy time investment, and it really isn't. If you're going to map, why not start with Doom? Because if you start with Doom, you really learn a lot about modding and have the beginnings of making your own GZDoom supermod, or even your own vidya game. Same with Trenchbroom and Quake.

But the real lynchpin here, is that instead of YOU doing something about it, you made a post stating that SOMEONE ELSE should. That's the real crux of the whole thing.

>>7117119
the worst thing about aleph one is that you have to exit the game to change the damn settings
every time i try to play marathon i get stuck fucking with the settings and resetting the first map before i go insane and give up

>his mod doesn't have voxels in it

>>7117127
>But the real lynchpin here, is that instead of YOU doing something about it, you made a post stating that SOMEONE ELSE should. That's the real crux of the whole thing.
Painter's Fallacy does not impress me, Anon. Quite the contrary.

>>7117132
Fallacy? Impress? Get off my dick, my friend. Either get on that saddle and prove me wrong and start working on a bona fide map editor for Marathon, or sit and spin.

>>7117094
He's a HL1 chad.

>>7117135
Frothing at the mouth while the paint dries, Anon. Today is the day you learn that the inability to do better does not shield one from any and all criticism.

>>7117139
Who?

>>7117127
>If you're going to map, why not start with Doom?
Because I like Marathon more than Doom, although you're still ultimately right. There's no real reason to completely overhaul Aleph One with new features when the demand just isn't there and it's essentially all being developed by one guy as a hobby. I am *hoping* that future iterations of Aleph One will add some crazy new options but I know it won't.

>>7117141
You have chosen to sit and spin. Thanks for playing.

Whatever.

>>7116954
Holy shit, a decent port?

Just finished this FM.
Did nobody really make a sequel for its cliffhanger ending for these past 19 years?

>>7117129
Mine does. I actually want to try using a voxel effect for Blaz's fatal draw and make it a big fucking physical slash effect rather than a BFG effect.
I have no idea if that'd work though.

DOOM thread.

>no DOOM in the OP picture

WHY?!

>>7117167
Combines Arms update WHEN

>>7117151
Not as much as Alf.

>>7117175
I'm working on it. The stick is done and I'm getting it in game. After this I need to do the berserk, which isn't gonna be as fancy as this, tweak the kick, tweak the blastmaster set a little, make sure I get crate weapons overhauled, brightmaps on a few things, title art, and help screen art.
I WAS going to tweak the monsters too but I'm not sure if I will

>>7117179
>>7117167
Kegan, what do you use to draw?

>>7117185
Aseprite and a mouse.

>>7117187
Oh boy. Thanks.

Working on a door texture and I hit a roadblock, any suggestions/criticism on what I've got so far?
Material texture thrown on it to give it a bit of context.

>>7116989
>>7117053
Definitely try the Build version if you don't like the level design of the PSX/Saturn one. It's got much more straightforward progression.

>>7117203
Seems good. Maybe add safety strip or bumps at the bottom that suggest it's the thing that moves.

>>7116857
Does Shadow Warrior have any mods whatsoever? Other than the map packs in rerelease?

>>7117129
For me, it's crappy low-poly 3D.

>>7117167
Actually, I think 3D would work better with that. By "big fucking physical slash" you mean like a giant white sickle-shaped shockwave or something?

>>7117245
I wanna use voxels cus those work in software mode too. and I mean like a big blue ethereal blade sweeping horizontally out from Blaz.
Think like the Claimh Solias from Aria of Sorrow, just a big fucking sword.

>>7117249
Ah yeah, I forgot about software mode.

>>7117258
Honestly I don't even know if anyone plays in software mode but I've been fussing with it up to this point, so I might as well keep going.

>>7117263
I play software mode because hardware accelerated makes my game crash sometimes

>>7117305
Software mode is by default the only true way to play a retro FPS. It is literally how the developers intended you to play.

>>7117203
looks fine.
add caution tape at the bottom or some glowing bits in the middle to make it clear that it's a door and not a wall.
if it's for a 3D engine, can add sloped "teeth" at the bottom as well.

>>7117203
warning strips and colors other than grey
>>7117053
ramses literally tells you exactly where to go mongoloid

>>7117324
Software mode in the Build engine hurts my eyes when I look up and down though

>>7117345
>>7117345
>>7117216
Thanks guys, stripes it is.

Has anyone here played the Castlevania mod? I'm downloading it right now, I need a palette-cleanser to forget getting buttfucked in 2d Castlevania tonight.

>>7117405
Then an exception is granted for you and you alone to play in hardware mode. No one should become ill over vidya.

/v/ fag here. Should I bother with Fresh Supply or just torrent the files and get NBlood\BloodGDX? From what I read Fresh Supply is kinda iffy even after the fixes and Atari being cunts in general over the support and availability of the original.

>>7117435
just use buildgdx, fresh supply isn't faithful with the og game

>>7117435
None of them are 100% accurate, though I think GDX is more accurate than FS. FS would most likely be the best port by now if Atari didn't cockblock it but what can you do

>>7117305
Well that's one person, good to know I can do something to look out for you at least.

Who is the biggest name to have ever played your map?
For me, it's unironically Skillsaw, and also Ribbiks.

>>7117442
Are there any fan patches for FS now that Atari is barring it from being updated?

>>7117008
look up the artists page

>>7117442
Nblood is technically the most accurate, since GDX fixes bugs such as the akimbo shotgun fire anims and the episode 3 boss spinning

>>7116943
Something that even ROTT's detractors can agree on is that the music is absolutely sick, it's done by Lee Jackson and Bobby Prince, with Lee doing most of it, and he really knocks it out of the park.
Andrew Hulshult does an ok job remaking it for the remake, though he turns it all into metal shredding, which I think is off for a lot of the tracks.

>>7117324
GLQuake tho

>>7117605
>GLQuake tho
GL rendering bugs tho.

>>7116961
I'm pretty fucking baffled at that design decision, because it's so incredibly BAD. Like, Doom has a PRNG table, but it's designed to not give you completely shitass damage rolls, even if it also nerfs potentially super high damage rolls with rounding.
Blood 2's damage scaling is all over the place, and it regularly results in even strong weapons to underperform dramatically, very regularly, and what it really does is make every weapon in the game feel extremely unreliable and unsatisfying to use, which is bad for what's supposed to be an action game.

I know GT Interactive booted it out the door as a beta, but this seems like the kind of thing where you implement it to see what it's like, and then when you immediately test it, and then immediately undo it because of how awful it turned out. Blood 2 wasn't finished, but every time I look at basically any aspect of it, it makes me think about how almost all of its design decisions are really awful.

>>7117614
Which ones tho

>>7117119
Didn't Aleph One have a bunch of added features at one point, but then eventually deleted them all in updates?

>enjoying a wad
>decide to look into the creator to see if he's made anything else I might enjoy
>only presence online is his twitter
>full of retarded post-SA goon troonposting
every fucking time what is wrong with everyone who mods this game

>>7117129
Yeah, the way GzDoom handles them is extremely inefficient and eats away your performance if you use them more than sparingly.

>>7117623
Dunno, I only got into Aleph One in like 2016/17. The dev and community seem to dislike adding anything new besides LUA support

>>7117623
Not him but I'm not aware of that. However, they do regularly release betas on github, so it's possible there were some features on pre-release betas that didn't make it to their respective official release versions.

>>7117626
What wad tho

>>7117167
Protip: for mostly cubical objects like those, it'd be better to plain convert them to regular 3D models (which would look exactly the same), because the way GzDoom does voxels is to plain render each 'voxel' as a 1x1x1 3D model cube, which is super inefficient in terms of performance.

>>7117637
Check the replies. They're voxels for the sake of software mode users. Thankfully these things are short lived so it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

>>7117626
Welcome to everything ever, you may find out that you don't like the creator of something you think is really good.

It was such a pain in the ass to get to this point but fucking hell this was worth it. Now to get the behavior in.

>>7117119
I've asked the devs and they don't want to 'mess' with the purity of Marathon in ways like adding slopes and other 'modern' touches you see in gzdoom and even eduke. THe only way it'll ever happen is if someone else took over and created their own branch but i think Marathon is quite niche as it is

>>7117203
Gonna agree with the others that warning strips on the bottom makes sense, and I'd maybe give the ridged surfaces there a color to make the entire thing stand out, along with maybe a couple of lights and a control panel in the middle, maybe offset it downwards some.

>>7117239
Based depahtment? I sawr this kid...

>>7117620
janky water and sky, lack of glowmaps, halved lightmap range, ugly blurry UI

>>7117249
I also forgot about software mode. AoS is excellent by the way.

>>7117456
Tarnsman and 40oz, I guess, with 2048.

>>7117483
Not very high res.

>>7117643
Yes and that's very stupid. Thank God for LUA support at the very least

>>7117643
I see the need for a 'Crispy' port, and I really appreciate the effort of it too, but man it must suck that there's no advanced modding for the game.

>>7117650
Right, but as you stated, developer intentions, thus Quakespasm is legit.

>>7117642
nice foam sword

>>7117324
GLQuake legitimizes all Quake sourceports you nonce.

>>7117671
It was far worse looking with the previously failed attempts at shading.

>>7117676
Eeeehhh I dunno man. The one you like looks like those old plastic lightsaber toys.

>>7117681
It's gonna look toy-like regardless due to my color choices, unfortunately. I'm too goddamn stubborn to back off from the blue.

>>7117684

>>7117642
animation looks smooth as fug and i like how it looks like a Popsicle lol

>>7117674
GLQuake is buggy and janky and looks like n64 game

>>7117689
You misunderstand: >>7117668

>>7117619
Blood 2 was designed by a different lead designer. J Wilson, you may also know him for Diablo 3. Needless to say, he's not the best game designer, but a good map designer if his work on Blood 1 was to go by.

>Check it out, enforcer. This chick has three legs hehehe

>>7117756
Have some animations for hitting enemies and walls. I'm happy with the wall hit but the enemy hit animation is kinda funny. Though it'd make the most sense, seeing as it's a baton, it'd thud against flesh and bone and then the wielder would have to pull back to reset.

http://www.proasm.com/sw/swtcs.html

>>7117764

depends how the secret is hidden
if it is something that you can notice like a different or misaligned texture or a small switch in a corner, I am fine with it. It rewards a player for being observant and exploring.
if it is just a random wall with no way of telling that it is a secret wall, then it is shit. I am not going to wallhump every inch of a map to try to find a secret.

This is why I play with "show triggering lines" on in gzdoom

>>7117730
That explains so much about Blood 2 and Diablo 3. What other bullshit has he done?

>>7117626
Autistic people are the most likely to make maps for boomer games.

A shame, really.

>>7117770
i often find secrets fun, but feel weird when they completely throw the balance for some fights, and then i see that everyone plays with them.

i guess i also really like playing maps blind, i try not to even use saves on my initial runs, and usually go back at the end for UV-Max. This sort of thing really makes blind runs less fun.

Some mappers now have very meager rewards in secrets; e.g., sometimes ribbiks just gives you a +1 armor bonus, and i'm starting to think that's okay

Can you give a monster more than one spawnflag in Trenchbroom separated by commas?

Who's gonna win?

>>7117795

>>7117783
not by commas, you sum them instead. though it's supposed to just give you boxes to tick - are you using a .def instead of an .fgd or something?

>>7117804
A very incomplete fgd which I'm trying with my fledgling skills to both provide documentation for and fix.

>>7117804
>>7117808
Also thank you, that worked.

>>7116937
gmanlives-fixes-quake-1.jpg

>>7117773
Pretty much just those games, thankfully.

Is anyone aware of a command or script that can be used to spawn enemies/items near the player on any given level (not built into a map)? I'd like to create a sort of stream integration for Quake where viewers can troll the player by spawning shamblers and shit right next to him.

>>7117758
Maybe give it a bit of a hit stop effect when it makes contact with an enemy, so it feels more like you're giving them a big bonk instead of just bouncing off of them.

>>7117839
https://www.moddb.com/mods/qreate
Otherwise you need to build something yourself with QuakeC.

>>7117843
I'm trying to be very careful with the hit stop here cus the idea is whiffing or hitting walls is a longer cooldown, but landing successful hits means you can follow it up with another attack faster. Like here for example, if I were to add one more frame I'd lose the specific rhythm I want

>>7117849
>IonFurybeta.webm

>>7117849
It would take more work so it's not the miracle solution, but you could do what Half-Life does with it's Crowbar and have it cycle through multiple hit animations when you consecutively attack an enemy. Gives it a feel that you're really piling on the hits.

>>7117849
Now add a tension gauge and roman cancels.

>>7117854
that's exactly what I have planned, you'll cycle through four different swings, and on hit the animation can be cancelled into another swing, whereas missing or hitting walls takes longer before you can attack again. Best case scenario is when I get this finished it'll feel like it does in HL1 where you're just raining blows down.

>>7117856
I'm gonna be adding a boot gauge instead to prevent kick spam.
What the fuck is a roman cancel?

>>7117770
>>7117782
ok i feel like a retard. now that i've beaten the map:

the map in question is a map15 in a map pack, and it is packed full of secrets, which makes the secret exit hunt more fun

>>7118005

>>7117059

>>7117857
>What the fuck is a roman cancel?

Not that anon, but they're the animation cancels from the Guilty Gear series you can do by spending meter mid-combo.

>>7117623
IIRC, they once implemented jumping but the low gravity broke the gameplay

Aleph One and its map editors will remain being like they are because Marathonfags are kinda retarded puritans. The only way for Marathon mapping to get its shit together is unironically if a bunch of famous e-celebs make videos about it so it's brought to the attention of Code Wizards or if Bungie announced a new Marathon game.

He's not great, but more than any other monster his utility hangs on how he's used, and there's not that many ways to put him to good use.
Making his hitbox a little smaller and making him walk faster I think would do a lot to make him more useful, also making him open fire from a greater distance and maybe at a higher rate of fire would make him more dangerous.

>>7118027
Would be good if that could be addressed, maybe not straight up so that other monsters won't fight it, but so that lower tier monsters are hesitant to do it and maybe decides against retaliating against him 50% of the time.

It's actually a shotgunner with a ton of HP and a super fast fire rate. People mainly don't use it because it's so large that you have to design encounters and areas entirely around it or not use it at all

Is there such thing as a "fake crossover" TC?
Like, it has characters and worlds that feel like they're from different games and properties, but they're all original (In the sense they're from the same person and for the same project) and it doesn't even go for that Drawn Together parody angle?
Even if it comes off as a bit autistic or jarring at times?

>>7118637
This sounds fun, a TC mashing all of the main Build games together in one mod would be awesome

>>7118654
I mean if the characters were like "someone's oc's of totally different genres" as if a game just existed to show them off.
It could have a bit of an identity crysis and maybe wasted potential for more interesting characters, but if the game is still fun and enjoyable, it would be less bad.
Could be the type of a game that felt like it was pandering and doing the opposite of that to multiple audiences.
Because deep down, it might as well be pandering to the creator itself.

>>7118637
>Like, it has characters and worlds that feel like they're from different games and properties, but they're all original (In the sense they're from the same person and for the same project)

>>7119297
i feel like a cel shaded, low poly aesthetic would do doom more justice in 3d

>>7119297
You can tell from the video alone that it plays nothing like the original. Movement is slow and has more friction to it, TTK with the chaingun is way too slow, all despite all HP and damage values being transcribed to decorate on zdoom wiki and Doom engine's quirks being exhaustively documented on the web, making the behavior extremely easy to port 1:1.
It's a surface level remake but I'm sure the vasyan crowd will eat it right up.

Because you are a fucking retard kike who's hiding that The jews at hollywood did that with the first two Medal of Honor games who were narrative corridor shooters, and spielberg who was the councilor head honcho at dreamworks games, pushed that since he had friends at the industry, and that shit was easier to make than a well rounded fps map with open areas and so on in a console, which led to the retarded infusion of it in 2003, since it was easier to contact a hollywood writer or actor to make and promote your games for free, also he hated CoD1,2 and Allied Assault/Pacific/Airborne for being more akin to Good old PC FPS games from 97/2004 period, since they used a good engine and took notes from RTCW about how to make a good WW2 game that isn't a corridor shooter, and is action packed with some exploration and even interactions.

Also, the "golden age of fps games" were garbage, nothing but a bunch of doom and wolfenstein clones with zero inovations, even quake was one, who had Multiplayer, the 1st Machinimas and good maps carrying it because it was the 1st 3d fps game, Powerslave which was a kino game on the saturn with tons of innovations, suffered because of the original early build engine game, and the garbage PS1 port thanks to sony's autism, same autism that pushed FPS as we see nowadays because of MoH and MoHU, since sony was hollywood, also Alien trilogy who is a underrated game.

And AGAIN, HL didn't killed FPS games, its still a Quake Engine based game who got independence, and its still fastpaced, dangerous, with open maps with secrets, and a good story, which brought new blood and innovations to a stale genre as Quake 2, 3, Unreal and even, Kingpin, Delta Force + Soldier of fortune did to renovate it from its Doom Clone status on PC.

>>7119545
Because even up to 2007 there were FPS who were good and in line with the 97-2003 period.
Not the modern AAA fuckfest that killed the genre for years with the same repeated clones repeating the same Console MoH/MoHU formula. And even fucking halo 1 and 2 are in a midterm, though 3 and later embraced it fully for the sake of "more sells".

Also, The Corridor narrative shooter formula is easier to produce, mostly because Devs are too lazy to come up with bigger open maps to circumvent the "sony" console limitations, even deathmatch maps are smaller and bland due to pure laziness, but they sell because modern players hated old school design for being "complicated, full of backtracking, exploration" and so on, and this same cursed formula later on infected other genres, to the point of turning them into interactive movies for people who hates videogames, they became "youtube games", which you can play all of it by wacthing on youtube for 3 or so hours.

>>7119595
What about the Open World formula?

>>7119457
In case you haven't already completed the level, there's a teleporter terminal in the sewage room with the locked door. If you don't see the terminal, then you need to find a particular polygon to stand on which will activate the platform and reveal the terminal from across the room.

BTW there's an upcoming level called Come And Take Your Medicine which can be incredibly confusing if you choose to explore but actually can be completed in like 1 minute if you stay on the path told to you by Durandal

>>7119606
This exists since the 80's and it will always evolve, but for now, all of it its tied to technology and devs willing to make it good.
and sadly producers would ask devs to put a million polygon rock in a small and fake open world theme park with a garbage story with no mod support, over a well tailored and even reasonable polygon assets carried by good art style open world and mod support.

It took a few levels for it to really hit its stride, but I'm pretty impressed with Build Powerslave. In terms of mechanics and design, it's not far behind Duke and Shadow Warrior at all. They designed this game for continuous play and it shows, with inventory mechanics that discourage hoarding and also prevent you from just stacking all the buffs any time there's a rough fight, as well as relatively small ammo amounts and capacities so you're never running around with full ammo for everything. The weapons are serviceable in both function and feeling. They definitely put extra effort into the M60 knowing that it'd be your workhorse, but none of the others are particularly bad. The enemy roster's solid too. There's little to no redundancy and the enemies all have distinguishable silhouettes, but some of them are a bit disproportionately strong for how they're used. The mummies can be especially nasty in groups, they're like the classic Archvile+Revenant encounter rolled into one enemy.

Worst I can say about the game is that it's lacking in character. Our guy doesn't have much to say and the few lines he has aren't particularly good. The setting also doesn't really allow for the same amount of humor in the levels. The best you get are rude traps and occasional secret windows into rooms with sexy ladies. It's only really a problem though because of the expectation set by the main trio.

>>7119748
There's probably a few good Wolf 3D TCs for Doom, Wolfenstein X was really fun because of the detail in the maps but they're a pain in the ass to navigate and full of dudes.

>>7119713
>The mummies can be especially nasty in groups, they're like the classic Archvile+Revenant encounter rolled into one enemy.
Its an interesting mechanic since they can only revive eachother. However, ive found that you can actually kill them with the machete quite easily by melee-baiting them. Also the revived ones only have like half health.
>Worst I can say about the game is that it's lacking in character. Our guy doesn't have much to say and the few lines he has aren't particularly good.
The character is very generic but I do like the voice acting. He sounds so pissed, it's realistic to the sounds guys actually make when they get hurt.

To the anon who says Jace Hall should buy the Blood IP:
>On August 2, 2012 Jason Hall posted on The Postmortem forums about his interest in the idea of reviving Blood in some form. He stated that he was in a position to do this and the he had resolved any potential legal issues. He also stated that he wished for all Bloodites to offer him suggestions and ideas through this forum thread. He did however confirm that it was unlikely that he would be able to release the Blood source code in any sort of useful form. It was later revealed in February 2013 that Hall was unable to generate enough interest from Atari in order to have the project go forward. Hall had been considering such an idea since 2004 (see also), and mentioned something similar again on June 6, 2008 in a hypothetical context.

>It should also be mentioned that Devolver Digital also showed some interest in the Blood IP at around the same time, but concluded that it was too expensive for them to attempt to acquire it; others have since mused upon the idea as well.

>Hall brought up the idea again with an article published on June 5, 2016 intended to gauge whether or not there was still sufficient interest to support such a revival.

>On December 7, 2018 it was announced that a similar effort had been green-lit by Atari developed by Night Dive Studios. This came to be as Blood: Fresh Supply on May 9, 2019.

>"Hello, my name is Jason (Jace) Hall and some of you may know of me. I have been contemplating the idea bringing Blood back and was wondering how people might feel about it or if they were interested in helping me to do it. To be clear, I am thinking of bringing the ORIGINAL Blood game back as it was, with functionality alterations/enhancements that are similar but superior to ZDAEMON's. I would also make it work on all platforms, and not just PC. There are other things as well... I have a very specific vision in mind for what I'd like to do, but before I go off and do it - I wanted to speak directly with the Blood community and see what the thoughts are. My goal of course is for this all to be free, and all about gameplay and fun. You can rest assured that I have the resources to bring BLOOD back properly but like I said, I'm hoping to have the community participate in all this if it wants to so we can all do it together. This site is great and it would be great to see the Blood community grow! What do you all think?"--Jason Hall

>Any good?
I was going to write up a larger post shilling it when I was done with it, but I will do a smaller post now.

Ter_Shibboleth: Drake Redux is one of the most fun mods I've ever played in video games, not just Quake. It utilizes the much lesser known Quake mod Drake. T_S was originally released in 2017 in five maps, but it later got a sequel of three Drake focused maps, and then the author went and remade the first 5 to match, hence Redux. Drake has some great projects out there like Arcanum, Something_Wicked, Unforgiven, and some smaller ones, but it never had the Arcane Dimensions treatment of a mega mappack from various members of the community, hence its obscurity. Something_Wicked comes close, and I'll shill for that some other time, but T_S is all the more impressive because it's by one guy, but this one mother fucker really pulled off some crazy shit. The maps are enormous, so much so that you need to increase the -heapsize of your sourceport to get them running smoothly, but they're not enormous to the point of annoyance because just about every bit of space you see is used in some way. The abundance of new enemies, new powerups, new weapons (including changing the functions of default ones) just elevates this so high for me. Is it any good? Hell fucking yeah. I would not try to run it on a toaster, unfortunately.
https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/ter_shibboleth_drake_redux.html

Side note, the maps are designed in such a way that you can and definitely should shotgun start them, but be wary of shotgun starting nightmare. That shit's crazy and fun.

What the fuck is his problem?

The final video basically skipped through most of the final maps. My guess is it's a combination of him hating the levels, and not wanting to put as much effort into a video series that is current getting half the views of his other videos.

The new Project Brutality update is pretty neat.

>>7120242
Haha, gets funnier every time!

>>7120209
I'm not sure what you'd expect to see. It's still Quake, just with new monsters and weapons.

>>7120242
Speaking of Carmack quotes, I fucking love this interview he does like a press conference to these game journalists at Quakeworld 1996. He comes off like some kind of genius rockstar and the derisive way he blows off the suggestion of journalist who asks if they are using a specific tech is pretty funny just because you can see this is a man who feels as if he is a god among mental insects:

I'm reading Masters of Doom at the moment and I would recommend it to anyone in this thread. Its really good so far.

>In June 2019, USA Network greenlit a pilot episode of a potential series based on the book, to be written and produced by Tom Bissell under James and Dave Franco's Ramona Films label. The series, if it should continue, is expected to be an anthology series.[26] The series will feature Eduardo Franco as Romero, Patrick Gibson as Carmack, and will also star John Karna, Jane Ackermann, Siobhan Williams, and Peter Friedman, and will be directed by Rhys Thomas.[27]

Any mods that use Carpenter Brut as their soundtrack? Feel like that'd be neat.

Has anybody made worthwhile campaigns for Ion Fury yet?

Action starts are shit and you should feel shit.

SW2 was just a strange game, it was like they were making 5 different games and suddenly they were told to combine them and push it out the door.

>>7119297
HIRE

>>7118315
Now I'm imagining each weapon slot being centered around the Legendary Seals and I kinda want this to happen. We've got ground flames, lightning shots that can be charged, butterflies that grow into explosives after hitting something, you could use them for some really cool applications if done right. Not to mention the kinda shit you could do with this fucker's gimmick.

>>7120437
Oh shit Ion Fury has its own map editor? Duuuude

>>7120416
That game needs some serious mod love. I'm still amazed nobody's made a classic "full" build for it yet, especially with how awkward most of the weapon ammo counts are. Tried out the bonus maps, until I saw they were basically just random sectors from the campaign thrown together and mixed around. It feels like such a weird thing how adamant the Zdoom forums are about not exporting any assets, yet nobody is willing (or able?) to mod for the game itself. I know build isn't exactly as beginner friendly to work with, but its sad how ignored the game feels.

>>7120270
and they've somehow wormed their way up to the defacto head of every single new Q1SP map jam/pack, after showing up overnight out of nowhere
i don't know what happened but it doesn't seem to line up with the q1sp community being largely grizzled old boomers (at least in the past)

What's it changed? I'm mostly waiting on their overhaul to the enemies so I can play larger maps with it. The minuscule updates aren't very interesting to me since I find it already very playable.

does the wad file inside the Doom64 directory of the steam port work with source ports?
in case it doesnt work has anybody tried extracting the content and packaging it as a sourceport comaptible PWAD running with DOOM2.wad as IWAD?
so I can play the Lost Levels episode with mods?

Thanks in advance.
In case anybody is willing to try this I can upload the DOOM64:WAD from my installation to a filehosting site

>>7116954
What setup tinkering do I need to do to stop constantly looking down? I turned off auto-aim and turned on mouse-look, but that didn't help.

>>7120495
Yeah, the basic keybinds are the same but the scripting in mapedit is different.

>>7120523
I suppose it doesn't matter anyway since Blood has its own videos.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rL_0AU3wqE

>>7120495
>>7120521
yes and no; a lot of the basic things are common to all Build based editors.

There is the base Build, and then both mapster32 and mapedit are their own improved editions of that, each with their respective improvements and differences. For instance copy pasting sectors is not done the same way in mapedit and mapster32.

>>7119713
That's because the VA was an afterthought added late into the game "to do like Duke".

>>7120514
It cant be played in any other port but Doom 64 EX because the map format is different.

>>7120508
a bunch of bug fixes and they overhauled the rocket launcher so it's actually useful (and fun)

>>7119562
>I find the setting and the Hero based and think he deserves more attention among the other 90s FPS greats like Caleb, Lo Wang, Doomguy, Duke, BJ etc
Agreed. Both The Hero and Mjolnir Recon number 54, also known as The Cyborg, of Marathon are without a doubt the two most underrated 90s FPS protagonists and deserve more love.

>>7120542
>and they overhauled the rocket launcher so it's actually useful (and fun)
Hey, alright. I'll check it out.

>>7120258
Based as fuck

>>7120549
I see
so I basically cant run gzdoom compatible mods with it
bummer
what would it take to 'port' (not sure if that is the right word) the content of that WAD (including the LOst Levels episode) and make it into a gzdoom-compatible PWAD that runs on DOOM2 IWAD?
if anybody has the knowledge to do it I can upload the file from my fresh installation somewhere

>>7120545
What aboit Hiro Miyamoto? Muh Superfly Johnson? They were conceived in the 90s

>>7120545
Was a minigun ever planned for Marathon but never made it in? I keep seeing it in illustrations.

I wanted to make an FPS for FPS experts and maybe we could've not thrown tiny flying enemies at the player in the first level but that was misunderstood by reviewers who didn't give the game a chance."

I've just been thinking about how well robo ky would fit in a mod.

is there anyone in here tht can mod that wad file into a gzdoom compatible mod?

no not those
I was talking about the episode for Doom64 that got released with the steam release port of Doom64
Its called The Lost Levels and its an episode for Doom64 that continues the story kinda like No Rest For The Living does with Doom2
this is the wiki link of it
https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/The_Lost_Levels

>>7120641
Check ur moms vagina, I bet /vr/ left plenty of milliliters in there.

You can't. Doom 64 and Doom 2 are different games.

Sounds shit. Just play consolation prize if you want extra levels with mod support.

>>7120657
well in Doom Eternal there is a cutscene where he was found by the guys in knight armor wandering in hell on the brink of going insane
so they took him in as one of them and thats when he became to be known as Doom Slayer
then later he got captured in hell and entombed and later released by the UAC
so it makes sense lore-wise

>>7120663
Imagine giving a shit about some shitty fanfiction thats trying to be shoehorned in when you could just play more doom instead

>>7120612
Its not fictional, he got the stories and quotes from the guys themselves no one like Carmack or Romero has ever contested anything in it or said it was inaccurate.

>>7120673
Seethe queer, the new 64 episode is fucking based

>>7120679
is it good?
I still have to beat it
what is the fastest way to unlock it on the official steam port of the game?
I dont wanna play the whole fucking game vanilla AGAIN I already beat it about 30 times in the past
I heard that beating Hectic unlocks the features menu
can the Lost Levels be launched directly from there?

>>7120689
You can use a password to get to MAP28. Beat that and you’ll unlock it. Worked for me on Xbox one version.
https://doomwiki.org/wiki/List_of_Doom_64_passwords

W83M 7H20 BDY0 N9VB
Is probably the easiest/fastest to go with. All demon keys and weapons. And it’s on easiest difficulty.

>>7120689
unlock Hectic and access level select via features... Or add -warp 34 to the command line to start right on it (and optionally -skill 1 to 4 to select your difficulty)

>>7120691
>And it’s on easiest difficulty.

>>7120691
>All demon keys and weapons
isnt the Lost Levels episode supposed to be started with pistol only as a standalone episode like NRFTL?
or does it carry over the stuff from the end of Doom64?

>>7120704
It carries over so you can use your powered up unmaker

>>7120705
so if I decide to do it properly the first map of Lost Levels start right after the end of Doom64?

>>7120673
Why does the notion of Doom having a story make people so angry lol

>>7120747
Having a story is different from LUL RIP AND TEAR GUY shit that 2016/Eternal have. Keeping them separate is fine, but trying to retcon them back together is fucking retarded.
