what's going on

>>7218729
Do a shotgun like a Striker-12, where it holds 12 shells that can be fired in rapid succession, but then you still have to go through the process of loading every chamber one by one like the giant revolver that it is (the mechanism would wind itself as you turned it, so you wouldn't have to deal with that), as well as eject the last spent shell manually before loading the last new shell.

It would give you a lot of firepower very immediately when loaded, but then have a pretty long cooldown for a full reload. Partial reloads can kind of be done but you'd want to make sure to turn the cylinder the right amount so that you don't end up with a bunch of empty chambers before you get a live round.
At any rate, you essentially will not reload this gun while in the middle of combat 9 times out of 10, you will either have to switch to another gun, or run away to cover somewhere to refill the shotgun in safety.

Someone repost Screenshot Saturday, I didn't get time to post, we can still fudge it, it's Christmas.

>>7218929
THIS GIVES ME A CHANCE TO REPOST IT PROPER CUS I FUCKED UP LAST TIME.
SO IT'S THE LAST SCREENSHOT SATURDAY OF THE YEAR, MOTHERFUCKERS. LET'S SEND IT OFF WITH SOME GOOD PROGRESS. MAPS, MODS, SPRITES? LET'S SEE IT.

>>7218915
Jannies are being fucking faggots because of the Romero LARP shit in last thread (the screencaps namely)

wtf is going on lads

>>7218932
I'm working on overhauling the pocket revenants, I finally got all of the animations rigged up, now I need to add proper gibs for the new fellas, sounds, and give them all projectiles so they can cripple flying monsters.
and of course buff how long they last, maybe spawn a few more of them on hit.

>>7218932
I was going to start a new map, but instead polished existing stuff and forgot it's Saturday already.

>>7218936
People posting the stuff from that thread where Alf pretended to be John Romero. They go apeshit about that for some reason.

>>7218948
*jannies go apeshit

>>7218937
what's the name of that marathon guy again?
i almost forget most marathon baddies

>>7218957
the Pfhor. I love the noises they make so I'm adding them into the pool of pocket boners.

>>7218907
Last thread is actually here if anyone wants stuff from there:
https://desuarchive.org/vr/thread/7214792/

>>7218964
i know pfhor as a whole, i meant specficially those staff guys

>>7218948
Probably because he was impersonating an actual person and people were screencapping it and posting fake Twitter caps.

>>7218968
I think they're just called fighters.
Pfhighters, if you will.

>>7218937
>Pfhor Troopers
Based

>>7218937
That little dance they do always cracks me up

>>7218915
>>7218936
Alf and a mix of discord and kiwi shills attacking 4chins everywhere, with him evading his ban and impersonating romero.
lets hope that this thread inst raided.

>>7218968

is it any good?
i am not well versed in marathon.

Marathon is great so far but the mouse input is so fucking terrible it gives me a hand cramp, it's like there's reverse acceleration on it

>>7219020
What is Trojan?

Playthrough video of map0 of 2048 units of /vr/ is up. The first difficult level of the wad. The most difficult part is the fight with two arch-viles at the same time. I messed up my strategy and survived due to pure luck.

>>7218996
>>7219024
What did he mean by this?

>>7219034
>>7219037
It's one of the first Marathon TCs to ever be made and unlike other TCs, it was coded using M1 files back in the day. It's pretty great.

>>7219050
that ui needs some apple crt dithering to retrieve the details
i think Reshade lottes now can do that with the right scaling.

>>7219048
Literally that.

>>7219065
it was a joke

>>7218907
anyone uploaded the sigil soundtrack wad yet?

>>7219106
The peepeepoomer version or midi?

>>7219106
nvm found it on archive

>>7219106
Why would there be such a thing?

>>7219121
idk romero wanted 7 bucks for it
https://archive.org/details/2020_03_22_DOOM
idk about the soundtrack but thats probably on your favorite tracker/slsk

>>7219020
"Trojan" is probably the absolute last word you want to use in a mod name

>>7219124
Is this the one 2ith buckethead ir something?

>>7219124
>romero wanted 7 bucks for it
To be fair, most if not all of that money goes to Buckethead, you're basically paying for a compilation.

>>7219142
Sorry honey, but Macs don't get viruses ;)

>>7219124
It actually costs $6.66 and it goes to Buckethead and towards the Romero Museum, the one he sells is the one with the Buckethead soundtrack.

>>7219151
Die tranny

>>7219172
yeah the flac version is on their bandcamp

Marathon is garbage.
Wish it was as good as Half Life.

I don't understand the janny logic behind not banning a dumbass whos off topic attention seeking shitposting is so rampant that they need to scrub dozens of posts every single thread. I don't want goose stepping wannabee nazi mods here at all but after the 20th thread where a chimpanzee shows up and starts flinging it's own feces at the walls you might want to consider getting it a cage.

>>7219178
Buckethead is just one guy who wears a KFC bucket on his head

>>7219192
More like Half Gay since that game is for fags

>>7219194
He could just be ban evading repeatedly.

>>7219196
why is sigil running at like half speed in gzdoom?
is there a config i need to edit

>>7219198
Marathon is for trannies like you.
Go suck off Errant Signal

>>7219194
Because he apparently contributes alot when not shitposting and is OP most of the time, jannies can see his post history.

>retards believe this
lol

You first.

JANNIES I MADE A STINKY HAHA STINKY POOPY CLEAN IT UP

>>7219228
You made a Marathon?

wow I'm gone until the shit show here's over

>>7218937
I hope the Heretic skellies can appear too

>>7219232
marathonfags started it.
Reading text in cringe and the level design sucks.

Changed my screen_dir

Were there any decent maps in xmasjam2020? I was pretty disappointed so far. The arena was ok but I just circlestrafed to beat it

>>7219031
The first video is the Cobray Streetsweeper, which is the really cheap licensed version by, well, Cobray. It lacks the feature of the Strike/Protecta guns where it taps off a little bit of gas from the bore to eject your last spent shell (it also has a little gate which slides down after you fire your first shot, so you don't eject your twelfth shell). The Cobray is also far lower quality.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlR1CI3ck_U
It's quite a lot better. You can usually tell them apart from that boxy shell deflector behind the loading gate/ejection port, as well as a plastic winding knob (instead of the flat sheet steel one), and often a cylinder advance lever above the pistolgrip.

>>7219238
>actual underage child "he started it" nonsense
i am so fucking sick of you people.

>>7219238
this user got lost in the first maze

>>7219262
sorry about your game sucking

>>7219216
Just telling you why, thats why the thread disappeared, he was OP. Same with the Romero one a few weeks ago.

>>7219258
play the quasiotter map :)

>Marathon? never heard of it

>>7219223
Cringe

The quality of these threads has definitely declined since Eternal was released.

>>7219196
And with some seriously well trained hands working the guitar.

Look, Marathon 2 is amazing and hating it is almost as pathetic as hating Rise of the TriCHAD

>>7219282
Another shit game.

>>7219278
I'm betting Alf lost his job so he stays here every waking hour now

>>7219278
The fuck does that have to do with anything? Eat shit you new bad old good cocksucker

>>7219278
It's on a steady decline since 2016

>>7219285
the absolute state of marathonfags

>>7219285
I'm at work right now. Portable devices to access the internet exist.

>>7219278
Here's hoping id gets nuked and Doom dies.

he is also derailing all of /pol/ and /v/ threads, this is a organized raid.

>>7219287
Notice how the newfag spergs out once called out.

>>7219329
Based.

>>7219329
Half-Life is seriously dogshit

>>7219320
This is MAP19 of Eviternity, and it's an immensely large techbase containing a huge waterway/purification plant. 49 minutes in, one key down, hungry for ammo a chaingunner teleports from a pillbox in front of me to directly behind me.

Does alf think he's funny?

>>7219332
We still had retards here, and we still had THIS particular faggot before then. The new boys obsess over trannies but we've always had mental defectives.

good night /vr/

>>7219325
alf what do you think about system shock

>>7219332
Not much.

Half Life ended the Golden Age of 90s FPS. There's only a few exceptions to FPS games released after 1998 being good like Halo.

>>7219351
These in-ground emplacements hold them, not in this particular case but in the case where I had died. These had 1 gunner in them

>>7219357
The first one? Based but hard to even call a retro FPS by the traditional meaning due to its unqiueness and control scheme.

>>7219367
Jesus can you even shoot them back?

>>7219361
Falseflagging tranny, Halo is shit

>>7219351
subtle

>>7219374
I'm sorry the game is too difficult for you.

Autoaim takes care of it. Those are practice for the teleport after aggroing kind I guess

Haven't done much, but tried making another quick low effort 3d -> 2d skin project; can't post the specific one because it's furshit. Been putting it off for forever, issues with lighting and color choices slowed me down. Pictured is one that I want to redo because the 3D lighting messed with the hair colors in rotations and looked bad at certain angles

>>7219380
Fortification is mine

>>7219390

>>7219390
809 monsters jeez. Playing through those kinda maps traditionally would drive me a little nuts.

>>7219020
Real shit?
I saw someone saying something about asking about it on the discord or subreddit a while back. I gotta put down Golden Souls to see what its about. Looks great!

>>7219386
Castle of the Renegades 2 from '95 (https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/levels/doom2/a-c/caslotr2).). Played with HDest, I think it's broken because I was able to exit almost immediately. Not sure what's up with these bars, they have animated lost souls on them. Apparently there's a restaurant section so I might revisit this level to see that. Not bad for 95.

>>7219396
Is Trojan like a new user made single player campaign or something?

>>7219369
Reasonable take from alf, huh

>>7219412
It's a very old TC done for Marathon 1 that was pretty much only playable via emulating Mac OS until now that it's been ported to AlephOne

>>7218937
Glorious.

>>7219417
Was there a very big scene around Marathon user made content like with Doom? People making custom maps and sprites etc?

>>7219417
Macenwolf is getting their mac wolf3d exclusive stuff ported too, i wish only that someone could update the sprite behavior too using Zdoom stuff

>>7219417
>Marathon
Cringe

Lol Doomfags so fragile if a 22 year old game triggers you this hard

>>7219386
Mount Doom
https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/levels/doom2/m-o/mountdm2
Shitty single map wad. I think the opening room had the most detail in this map, as the rest of the texture usage was either lazy or sloppy. The level just tosses a bunch of low tier enemies at you, including a few Wolfenstein SS here and there. At one point, there was a door that required the blue key, but it must have been placed in an obtuse area, as I wasn't able to find it and I was unable to return to the previous area, so I just idkfa'd to the last room. 2/10.

>>7219427
Marathon is fucking amazing, but it's for CHADS only, not trannies such as yourself.

>>7219421
Not really. There isn't a lot of legacy content out there for Marathon. Seems like most stuff out there was made during the mid 2000's to early 2010's

>>7219421
There a pretty decently sized scene for Marathon mapping in the late 90s and early to mid 2000s thanks to Forge being a very good map editor. A lot of them are currently either not compatible with PC or use very old versions of AlephOne but on the bright side a lot of them are being ported to current AO builds. One of the upcoming big ones is a TC that was the equivalent of Mordred Ep2 until the creator decided to return to it and finish it for current AO builds. It's called Where Monsters Are in Dreams.

>>7219434
Literally inferior to Doom 2.

>>7219442
Doom*

>>7219442
>>7219443
Marathon 2 is just as good or better than both, certainly more advanced

>>7219449
You don't understand. I could not give less of a shit about Marathon. My Doom folder grows day by day, gigabyte by gigabyte, while Marathon stews in a legacy heralded by fags on some anonymous imageboard lmao. Enjoy your dead game. Gonna go fire up some Duke.

lmao, no wonder every single videogame board hates Doomfags

Imagine calling yourselves retro fps gamers.

Anyone who uses Stealth Monsters in their ZDoom map is an asshole.

https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/levels/doom2/Ports/v-z/zodiac01
Anyway, I finished that Zodiac map I rolled last time, it was pretty alright overall, weird but enjoyable. Now I've gotta find out if this dude ever made any more levels in this one series.

Smug tomato fuck.

>>7219501

back to trannyworld

>>7219524
I was timeline posting a while ago.

What's everybody playing tonight? I got my brother on the Doomseeker train so we're both blasting through Doom 2, he hasn't played it in years so we're both having good fun.

>>7219532
Chad Life

>>7219532
No playing for me tonight, just more modding.

>>7219524
Same, brother. I like Doom too but I also find Marathon to be pretty unique and satisfying in its own way. Currently playing Tempus Irae which is awesome.

>>7219532
Its Real And It Kills for Heretic. There are some really cool visuals but the gameplay is amateur hour.

*gives /vr/ an aneurysm

Why is Oblivion so ungodly and soul crushingly hard?
the first hub is painful on nightmare, mainly because of the first new enemy shooting green plasma at you that is more accurate than blaster guards and more deadly.
Also the fucking gunners are faggots with pinpoint accurate grenade spamming, and enforcers being plutionia chaingunner levels of uber assholes.

>>7219536
This.

>>7219543
Also a very poorly-hidden ancap flag which is kinda cringe but whatever

>>7219536
What are you working on, dude?

>>7219539
I never had a Mac growing up, are there any good source ports for Windows? I don't know shit about Marathon beyond it having checkpoints and low gravity which sounds neat

>>7219532
Got a new PC so I'm checking out Prodeus
Lots of fun, looking forward to messing with the map editor.

>>7219556
Pocket revenants. The last crate weapon I need to overhaul, then after that I'm changing the crates themselves to be items you pick up rather than smash open, doing it this way means you'll NEVER get a duplicate weapon.

Whats the fucking deal with shitting on Marathon? It's a fucking great trilogy of games and The Cyborg is a fucking bad ass.

>>7219565
It's boring.

>>7219549
Also a Special bonus again for Roots, this is yamagi with reshade and ogl1.4 since 32 has issues with it, the map layout early on is beautiful and the enemy placement doesnt fuck around

>>7219524
I love absolutely everything about Marathon except for the gameplay unfortunately. I think I would like it more if Aleph One allowed for weapon hotkeys instead of just next weapon and previous weapon. It would also help if the mouse control wasn't complete ass.

>>7219556
AlephOne is available for Windows too. You just have to click in Latest Release and download the latest Windows Marathon 1, 2 and Infinity versions.
https://alephone.lhowon.org/
However, once you jump in you may notice that the FOV is pretty low and the mouse sensibility is high because of some weird video settings trying to emulate the original resolution. I recommend to go the Scripts folder, create a .txt file named "FOV.mml" and type this in:
<marathon><view><fov normal="110" extra="160" tunnel="70" /></view></marathon>
After this and some mouse tweaking to your liking, you'll be perfect to go.

>>7219532
Quake 1.5
2nd rune bossfight absolutely tanked my fps and I want to yell at the map creator. Look one direction get 300 fps, turn around and its down to 20. Fight starts and it dips into single digits.

Have

>>7219578
Might be time to upgrade, chief. Stick with it though. Quake 1.5 really is a great mod, and the Shub-Niggurath fight changes are so good.

>>7219573
Weapon hotkeys would definitely make Marathon way better than it is. Problem is that the Marathon source code is programmed through MPW files and written in Assembly so not even Grahf would be able to do a sourceport for this game.

>>7219549
>>7219572
Is there any website for Quake 2 maps/mods that is the equivalent of Doomworld/idgames and Quaddicted? Just a singular very popular and reliable hub where I can find most stuff.

Been playing a lot of shit though Doomseeker lately.
Is there a /vr/ server or if not one that people like to play various WADs on?

marathon a shit.
Discuss HL mods.

>>7219589
Graf can't even do a sourceport for doom.

>>7219570
You're low IQ as fuck and it shows

>>7219595
There used to be two /vr/ servers many years ago.
>>7219591
Quake II isn't popular enough to warrant a single database. Use quaddicted, moddb, filefront (now gamefront), fileplanet, and gamebanana.

>>7219601
Ok mac hipster.

>>7219581
Fuck off tranny loving homo

/v/ is laughing at you and your shit taste.

>>7219559
That sounds wild dude, if you end up posting your mod somewhere share it here so us dudes can kill shit with Pocket Revevanta.

>>7219558
Is there a demo out for Prodeus? I was thinking of grabbing that with some Steam Christmas money and ended up grabbing Ultrakill. Ultrakill is pretty wild too, I never thought anybody would combine/market Devil May Cry meets Quake but holy shit does it ever work well.

These wall-fires have imps and shotgunners/chaingunners that pop in after you kill whatever's in there currently. At least 4x times

>>7219612
>That sounds wild dude, if you end up posting your mod somewhere share it here so us dudes can kill shit with Pocket Revevanta.
That's the resident modding guru Kegan of GMOTA and Combined_Arms notoriety.

*continued the Golden Age
Halo is shit but not as bad as Marathon.

>>7219504
Looks like he didn't. I'll just have to roll something new, then.

>>7219612
Of course. I post my bullshit here all the time, you can play an older version of the mod right now but with all of the massive changes I'm doing right now it makes the current public build look like shit.

>>7219602
Quake 2 was popular many years ago for both fp and MP, but The death of Planetquake + gamespy browser and Celephais Bakerfags memory holing everyone about it did a lot of damage against Q2 and Q3A/QL out of pure spite coming from a bunch of minorities dickridng on other people's success.

>>7219572
Check the pastebin.

>>7219539
Tempus Irae is my favorite TC because most others have their head too far up their own ass with cheesy fan fiction. Tempus Irae barely has a story, and has a simple objective for nearly every single level (find manuscript, then find the teleporter, repeat). The quality of the TC as a whole is a bit mixed though, as it was made by a group of people rather than one guy. Most maps are really good but there's a few shit ones that are definitely in there just because all of the mappers were friends with each other

Are you updating Combined_Harms too, or will that be later?

>>7219628
I am. I'm gonna be refining a lot of the monsters to be less annoying, humans will be a little more aggressive and have a new attack, along with some other stuff.
Gonna change the name too so it's either to talk about because right it's awful, like VOCALLY talking about the mod is confusing, typing it out is confusing, and abbreviating it is confusing too. The new name I've picked out is Malefactors.

Marathon is tense if nothing else.

I relapsed and have to work a graveyard shift tonight. Anyone wanna play some co-op on Blood Fresh Supply?

Seriously talkig, should I play Marathon? I saw a webm that had two ssg's and it looked cool.

>>7219681
Nice, sounds pretty good to me so far. Glad to see something improve on Patch93 and EmporerGriefus

>>7219549
Just you wait till you get to meet the new BS monsters - i.e. the Spider, who spams twin rockets rapidly (despite the original manual webpage stating they have laserguns);
and later on theres the Cyborg, with its guaranteed instakill dual disintegrator attack -
although most of the challenge with this one comes from the fact that all versions of the mod available for dowload (as well as the PCgamer original disk bundle) actually dont contain any sounds for this monster, probably due to rushed development...

>>7219704
The appeal of Marathon is different than that of Doom. It's slower and has a strong emphasis on finding checkpoints and health stations which you'll be backtracking to often even on linear levels. I would recommend giving the game a try but with that being said it's pretty much agreed upon that Marathon 1 is kinda shit and it just serves as the foundation for 2 & 3 which are much better games

Yeah, that guy whos making it wants feedback for things like that.

>>7219790
Look closer, it just has a cover over the front with one hole it fires through, there are multiple barrels. Since all barrels don't fire at once it's not really necessary to have all the holes open in the front.

>>7219729
Holy shit that looks great, a sourceport with optional (used very sparingly since I remember the movies being mostly silent too) ambient music would be bananas.

At this point the mods should add ID's. Because we can go a whole day of chill discussion, and then suddenly its full of shitposting. Almost like theres 1 or 2 dedicated spergs stinking up the place that should be rangebanned.

>>7219992
They tried to push that on /v/, didn't happen there, won't happen here either.

>>7219992
Agree anti hl fags should be banned.

>>7219989
Well they actually talk about retro fps there and know what they're talking about.

>>7219989
>>7219992
I don't even know where to go anymore, all the established forums (that my lazy ass has bothered checking out) have too many rules I don't agree with and I feel on the fence about this place nowadays being able to anonymously say what you want (good) versus people continuously taking overt bait. IDs would be nice but I doubt it will ever happen, what's a tired anon like me to do?

The best demo

>>7219992

>>7219992
IDs and the ability to hide posters by their IDs would make these threads and /vr/ in general so much better. /vr/ is small enough that a couple spergs are all that's needed to shit up the whole board, since janitors are 100% uninterested in doing anything about this problem we should at least be given the tools to deal with this problem ourselves.

>>7219992
Fuck that, I come here because I like being anonymous, and I'm not gonna let some midwit spergs who can't cope with their parental neglect ruin that.

>>7220047
Maybe if you cry about bantz hard enough, it'll really happen

You're still anonymous. It's just now people can hide your posts if you're being a faggot.

>>7220047
>>7219992
These are Doomworld tourists. They want to take away the anonymity that imageboards are built on to put the tranny jackboot to wrongthink in the name of "saving the board" from a few shitposters.

>>7220063
The way you post makes you stick out like a sore thumb, you know.

No banning.
I need my lolcows.

>>7220063
Says the Avatarfag

>>7220063
>NOOOOOO you can't just hide my spam and shitposts! I worked so hard on them!

Where do I have to go to request IDs and ID hide feature?

>>7220050
Another dude here, but do IDs really eliminate anonymity entirely? I feel like nobody is going to start posting tripfag-style with the IDs being a random chain of characters. That being said, would IDs really change anything since VPNs and such exist? People would still be able to evade bans just as easily. All in all though, yes, I know that I gotta try to suck it up and just cope with the posts from neglected kids who aren't tough enough to finally grow up.

>>7220013
Could try doomerboards. Havent browsed there myself but apparently it was founded by a guy who got banned from doomworld and theyve made a lot of great wads (the DBP series).

>>7220080
It would work like a personal shadowban, yeah retards can evade site bans and shake off the ID system but they would never know how many people they are reaching.

>>7220086
Thanks dude, I'll try lurking there a bit. Being able to go to another place for awhile when things shit up here would be nice.

Are you going to leave this board because one schizo?

>>7220079
>>>/qa/

Literally none of this shit will ever happen.

>>7220095
>implying anyone looks at that dump

>>7220080
The issue is that if someone is ban evading, they'll get a new ID anyway and the concept is moot.

>>7220094
They're thin skinned faggots from cringeworld where bantz equal instant bans

Just renamed it to the Half Life and mods thread.
Fixed.

>>7220094
One extremely dedicated schizo that has completely ruined these threads. This shit has been going on for over a year now and I'm just really sick and tired of it. It's one thing if it was just the occasional whatever shitpost but when the entire thread is spammed with this garbage it just completely kills my motivation to post and even makes me not even want to bother checking the thread at all. IDs and a "Hide by ID" feature seem to be the only way to make this shit stop since mods clearly don't give a shit. This feature was available on 8*han and it worked great.

Cool fusion

>>7220094
I'm just a bitter, depressed cunt tbph. I've been coming to this site on and off for almost eleven years now, this schizo is just one of many on the site at large. My attitudes are changing so maybe I might just finally leave

>>7220119
Not me, but up until the IDs part of your post the sentiment is the exact same as mine.

Why are you fags like this? Why do you keep paying atention to that triple nigger? Fucking stop with this shit, you're ruining these threads. Nigger mods don't do shit. Alf is a discord tranny nigger piece of shit. Also, Half-Life is kino. It has an amazing modding community, I wish I could've played MP when people used mods like Action Half-Life

>>7220180
It's like they don't understand that if they keep talking about him thr shitposting increases and when people actually discuss retro FPS (which a few anons have still been trying to do through out all this if you look) then the thread goes back on topic and the quality goes back up

>>7220180
>discord tranny nigger piece of shit

>>7218932
Very early WIP.

>>7220226
Looks cool anon, I have always liked the flesh textures, they're creepy

I'm pretty sure Bungie knew they couldn't out Doom Doom so they doubled down on writing in a way they know Id couldn't do, which i think they were somewhat successful. Durandal is really the "main character" of the franchise with your character just being a means of witnessing his story. But then Infinity happend and got advant garde with it in a kinda not totally successful way.

Is he still canon or did he get retconned? I heard that they retconned all of the Gearbox expansions because Randy Negroford made Gaben angry, I don't know if it's true though.

>>7220256
Yes, green gasmask man is non canon

>>7220039
Arlene isn't even a tranny. Way to go incels, you pick the one confirmed cis-woman in the community to go after over the literal trannies.

>>7220263
It's a confirmed tranny names Wayne

>>7220263
Why don't you call them chuds while you're at it?

>>7220256
Peak FPS expansion

For me it's Gotcha.

>>7220263
In a strange way I actually think it's good that you have anons calling a cis-woman with a vagina "a tranny", because it betrays that it never really was about gender expression to begin with - it's about insulting people who disagree with you, simple as.

So when you see someone calling Arlene "a tranny", it defangs any other insults they could've hurled at actual trans people

>>7220308
I think you meant Gotcha! anon, with the exclamation mark and not the period.

>>7220308

IMO, Map20 is Romero's weakest map in Doom 2. After the beginning section with the Cyberdemon and Mastermind fight, it just feels like he threw together the rest.

Man, I love Build Engine games but my Lord do they ever strain my eyes. I guess it's finally time to suck it up and get glasses, most 90's games are beginning to become damn-near unplayable for me for any session longer than twenty minutes or so at a time. Don't even get me started on Mega-Man DM either.

>>7220638
it's the opposite for me, new games give me a headache to look at just from the sheer amount of unnecessary bullshit all over the screen. it's hard to even see what you're supposed to be shooting because of all the gay effects and props in the way

>>7220638
Eyesight is all genes + how much time you spend reading in the dark. I'm your age, no glasses and 20/20, and I adore looking at Build games. I daresay I love all of them, even Ion Fury, more than the original Dooms, but Doom obviously has better mods and maps.

>>7220638
Damn, those developing bastards are going to pay for messing up my eyes.

>>7220651
Kek

>>7220647
My parents have both had glasses as long as I can remember, that combined with untold hours of my youth spent in a dark room in front of a monitor made my shitty eyesight what it is today. Ion Fury is wild btw, I slowly played my way to the second boss on the Switch version before but I finally grabbed it on PC yesterday. Holy Jesus what a difference, navigating levels is infinitely easier and flicking to fire isn't a nightmare.

>>7218907
should I install TFix lite or use the Newdark source port for the thief games?

>>7220243
Marathon 2 also featured some insane verticality not seen in any other FPS game at the time until Quake. One level is a massive spiral tower where you ascend via swimming through rising water.

Huh, I had no idea that Quake Live had Steam workshop support. I know I'm going to get annihilated but I'm hoping that QL still has a decent small player count during peak hours.

>>7220323

Is it any wonder that Halo and then Destiny stories were simple and filled with stupid shit?

>>7220748
Halo's borrows a lot from Marathon if you notice it. I think Alex Seropian intended Halo to be a sequel to Marathon but they dropped the idea seeing that they could possibly lose the IP to MS. Destiny was a mess and its original story written by Staten was scrapped months before release because Activision is genuinely the most evil corporation in the industry

>>7220754
>Halo's borrows a lot from Marathon if you notice it.
Like a smidgeon, m89. If that. Halo's story has presentation going for it and nearly nothing else. What Marathon lacked in presentation it made up for one of the most compelling three act stories in shooters.
> Destiny was a mess and its original story written by Staten was scrapped months before release because Activision is genuinely the most evil corporation in the industry
Man fuck that. Jason Jones could have backed up Staten, but he pussied out. I've got no doubt Staten had some good ideas. He was always my favorite Bungie guy.

>>7220256
He's in a weird limbo state

This game is fucking gorgeous.
Has anyone here messed with the level editor?

Saturday is passed, but I finally started making a map again and that means I need to post every single thing I make here.

>>7220754
There's a lot of random references to Marathon in the lore of Destiny 2 even though they're not connected. There's even a direct mention of Bernhard Strauss (the creator of the Marathon AIs) and the MIDA insurrectionists in the grimoire cards. I don't play Destiny 2 but it's interesting that Bungie still finds ways to bring up Marathon.

>>7220847
IIRC, back in 2013 Bungie stated that they were working on a new Marathon game but Activision only let them have 5% of the company work in it while the rest would work for Destiny. It's safe to say that supposed Marathon game is in dev hell at the moment as Activision stated that Bungie's next game can't be an action-focused FPS as part of the split settlement.

>>7220684
The Tfix/Tfix Lite both contain the newdark executable as well, so downloading just that will also give you the latest NewDark. The latest is Tfix 1.27 (contains NewDark 1.27) so the version number matches with eachother. P.S. the Win98 link in the OP already contains a prepatched Thief with the Tfix 1.27 installed.
