TO SUBMIT NEWS, REPLY TO THIS POST

Ion Fury maps can be very comfy at times. And are often furnished in a really detailed manner.

>>7901352
>>7895803

I believe I am that Anon you were talking about, and I've got a really cool idea. I spent a good chunk of my day baking up this concept level to visualize it for everyone.

Watch it here: https://youtu.be/oifcIFZy2Xo

Basically, the idea is that it takes place in an Ethereal Void Realm outside of Reality, and the player is tasked with using this constructed "world between worlds" as a hubmap, and a means to blast through other realms and hidden parts of hell he completely missed to find all three demon keys once again. Once all the demon keys are gathered, they can be used to open up the exit, and cleanse the void of the secret evil which lurks beneath.

This way, we can all incorporate cool ideas and the Anons like this guy >>7895803 with a bunch of succulent brain juices can map anything their heart desires, while also tying it all together.

Let me know what you guys think! :)

>>7901386
oh my bad, meant that second reply for this dude :p
>>7895803

>>7900693
>Quake I think tries to run autoexecs in the folder of the level pack it's playing before looking in /Id1/ to find an autoexec.
run "exec ..\id1\autoexec.cfg" as the first line of a mod-specific autoexec
>It's a shame that Quake doesn't let you load saves from the command line
it does, just tested it with "+load quick"
>And what about demos?
I think it might depend on the port, but in spasm-derivatives you can "disconnect", then "record demo" and then finally "load quick". you won't need the save files to play the demo back.

FUN

How can i get into violet rumble /vr/? I would love to contribute but I have no clue where to even begin.

I have trenchbroom setup but I'm not sure how to use the mission pack content and progs dump 2 (or any other content that is being used)

>>7901569
just download the project mega, put "vr" next to your "id1", use it as a mod resource in TB, and use its fgd for new entities

>>7901487

>>7901383
3D Realms should hold a community mapping project. Get some interest going in making content for IF. Throw $1000 at the winner, $500 to the runner up and tons of mouse pads and stickers and shirts and keychains to everyone else who enters.

Games been out two years in August and there's literally less than a dozen user maps. Fucking hell 3DR hire me.

>>7901613
Or they could just make a more intuitive/modern editor for new people

thanks anon, i'll give it a go

I feel like an îmbecıl for just now understanding this:
>Alkaline - base mod for Quake
-Provides resources for IdBase technologic-style maps
-Base chemikals are alkaline unlike acids

Anyone know of some good level design resources? Not so much the technical side of things, but what to do with monsters, pickups, etc.

Haven't played Doom in ages. What's considered the best source ports these days?

>>7901883
Depends, what do you want to do?
Do you want to replay Doom 1, 2, and Final Doom or older custom megawads? Crispy Doom.
Do you want to play modern megawads? prboom+ UMAPINFO fork
Do you want to try complex gameplay mods? GZDoom/ LZDoom if you use a 32-bit OS

>>7901883
Doom Retro

>>7901929
That prboom+ fork is news to me. Everything else seems pretty much the same. Cheers anon.

Is there a way in Crispy Doom of turning off the automatic demo playback in the menu?

>>7901883
>>7901929
>>7901941
DSDADoom and prBoom+um are similar forks of prBoom+, and while DSDADoom is a bit less maintained it has some unique features like rewind.

GZDoom also got a GLES fork that cuts down on the recently added visual effects and capabilities, but works ~30-50% faster (45 fps map was giving me 65-70 with GLES). If the mod does not use any of the new visual features after 4.3, it should work without issues, mods that use the newest fanciest stuff may have issues, but so far I haven't encountered any.

>>7901798
There's a few potential resources available: valvesoftware's level design page and related entries has a few basic pointers that can apply to map design in general, not entirely specific to HL2 or source engine based games.
You can always just take a favorite level you've played and attempt to study what makes it so fun. There's also that Quake mapping tips tube vid I think someone posted the link to in the last thread.

These guys just make everything better, don't hold yourself back.

>>7901352
Is HFFM under 32 maps by design or submission, and would the lead be opposed to some late additions?

>>7902298
Nobody made maps for it.

>>7902298
It was just however many were submitted. I wouldn't mind some more levels personally (I have an unfinished second one), but mind you it takes time to make a level, as well as playtesting it. Going for a full 32 may be a bit much, but if there's enough interest, I think we could get up to maybe 24 or something.

The original lead I think vanished, and another guy took over to handle updating the .wad and what not. The idea had been floated to do an extension onto HFFM by summer, and while the first guy didn't want to do that, it's clear we still aren't quite done. For instance, two boners on Map 01 won't spawn in so you can't get full kills.

>>7902315
We made it to 18 thouh.

Lesson time /vr/
Why do you think these two Revenants are unable to teleport into the map?
All the information you need is in this screenshot of UDB.

>>7902374
That gimp mask is blocking their ears.

>>7902374
Not enough space on the other side of the line?

>>7902374
is it the ambush flag? t. quake mapper

>>7902390
Oh yes. Ambush flag.

>>7901351
is there a way to enable both anisotropic filtering and non-blurred textures in vkquake?

>>7902413
just try it, why are you asking? both are menu options, you don't even need the console. yes, they are compatible

the rooftop village in turok looks nice

>the ambush flag was once called the "deaf" flag in older level editors for Doom
>this lead to many people incorrectly believing the flag makes monsters unable to hear the players weapons and only wake up when they directly face the player.
>in reality, they can indeed hear sounds, its just that instead of immediately waking them up, it changes their line of sight to a full 360 degrees.

>>7902467
They still won't move, that's the important part.

>>7902467
I didnt even realize the 360 degree FOV thing until after a couple years of mapping.

>>7902390
>>7902383
Correct!
The Ambush flag, sometimes mislabeled the "deaf" flag, makes it so that instead of fully waking up, when a monster hears a weapon fired by the player, it enters an "ambush" state, where its field of view for spotting the player and waking up is expanded to 360 degrees. If such a monster is in a teleport closet, they will be unable to wake up and enter the map!
Interestingly, turning off the ambush flag is NOT the only way to fix this! If for example, you want the Revenants to only wake up once the player has entered the sector with the Archvile inside, you can place sectors connecting the closets to the room, with a middle texture blocking the player's vision. Once they see the player, they wake up and can enter the map, similarly to E4M1, although preferably without American McGee's idiotic wide ass fake wall that you can be shot through.
In Boom, you can ALSO use conveyor belts, this is convenient for cases in which you want the monsters to play their wakeup sound AFTER teleporting in!
However given that the original map's intent seemed to be to wake the Revenants up as soon as a shot is fired in that room, and they likely just got sloppy with Doombuilder's carryover from a previous actor set to ambush, I just changed the flag.
Here's a wad containing just the map, it can be saved into the main file by whoever's in charge now, hopefully this doesn't mess up any compiling or nodes or something idk

>>7902441
enabling anisotropic filtering while using classic filtering makes everything blurry

>>7902413
Anon, i cant even use VKquake and my card supports vulkan

Monster alertness is a goldmine with weird behaviours. Did you know that monsters don't remember whenever they saw doomguy or not and will go to sleep if you walk in front of them, then make them infight and win? Or for lost souls you can just dodge and it will go to sleep.

Chocolate Doom

Retard asking about mapping Trenchboom or any other Quake mapping tools:
Is it possible to make something akin to Warrens or Go2It from Doom where you clone a premade level and just add to it some new areas, or even fuse two maps together (for example - implemmenting into the 'Dismal Oubliette' map its missing entrance segment to make it complete) without really changing much else besides the XYZ coordinates of the level geometry?

>>7901987
ok but how do you pistol start Map 05 on UV?

>>7902567
BD has its own levels? Are you maybe talking about Freedoom or HOESP?

>>7902557
It makes reddit and doomworld seethe

>>7902579
Yeah, Hell on Earth Starter Pack. Weren't they made by Mark?

>>7902557
look up /vr/ archives and the few posts describing its bugs and actual problems

>>7902592
Never played this myself but I remember one mappack for BD being really inspired by E1 of Duke, was it that one?

>>7902604
Can't remember Duke, but this one had really good city levels, including a moving subway train.

>>7902573
Yes. You can have both maps you want to 'fuse' open in different instances of Trenchbroom, CTRL + A to select everything in one, and copy/paste it into the other. If shit is off-grid you might need to go to edit -> paste at original position and then move things manually while they're still selected.

>>7902573
main difference is that in Quake you edit brushes in a .map file, which then gets compiled to .bsp for the game to load.
so if you have access to the .map sources, it's pretty easy. if you don't, it's still possible to decompile a .bsp, but it's going to be harder to edit.
fwiw there's a merged version of Dismal Oubliette in Quake1.5.

>can't wake up

>>7902469
The main issue with calling it "deaf" is that it lead to confusion among mappers when flagged monsters facing away from the player were still waking up from sound when they were visible to the player.
In order to truly have a monster be deaf, you'd need to surround it with layers of sound blocking lines.

>>7902654
Even speedrunners agree that the items stat is not worth it for UV Max.

>>7902654
there aren't even any doom speedrunning categories that involve 100% items

i like how turok has animals you shoot that drop health
it's like how golden axe games had those leprechauns that drop stuff when you hit them

Speaking of sound blocking lines - since it takes 2 lines to block the sound, you can make it so monsters would wake up in adjancent rooms, but not one room over, even if there's a direct line to it, simulating limited range sound can propagate as if position of its origin matters.
This seems like the only reason to add such mechanics, but was it ever done in IWADs?

>>7902519
Ditching Bilinear over anisotropy would fix a lot of things.
Bilinear works only on 2d

q2 source ports did that and its hard to find ugly blurry q2 outside the og exe

>>7902693
>>7902696
you are a failure

>>7902720
Post some of your 100% item IWAD lmps or GTFO

For archival purposes in case the original websites go down I will be posting Robert Osorio's (member of the old farts clan) screensavers here.

For those curious, these screensavers do work on W10. I decided to dl these because I know one day these websites will go down. It's only a matter of when.

Ok, so since I seem to be a fucking retard, how can I make the coupler on the hose like the reference? I just can't put it into the correct perspective and I also don't have access to a rl garden hose right now to take a picture.

>>7902693
>>7902696
does it really matter what speedrunner autists do?

>>7902749
If you're going for 100% yourself, then you're no less autistic than a speedrunner.

>>7902741
Looks ok to me.

>>7902682
So overall, would you say it is teh epicz0rs ftw or not?

>>7902769
it's called challenge, dumbass

>>7902779
tubular to the max

>>7902791
Getting 100% items is not what I'd call a challenge. Just boring.

BlackOps.wad+Smoothed.wad works in Crispy Doom and PrBoom+ 2.6, but it doesn't work in DSDA-Doom 0.19.7

100% Items kinda sucks considering it requires health/armor bonuses.

>>7902575
Did you find the soulsphere and green armor secrets near the start? Try and grab the rocket launcher before opening the blue key door.

Has anyone ever tried to make a new BFG sprite using Fallout 4's CC release

>>7902936

Erm, so /vr/ does Doom coop on Sunday apparently. How do I play?

Alright I think I'm now mostly satisfied with the hose. Turns out it was a distinct lack of shading that was the main issue here.
I also started growing a bit of cabbage.

>>7902947

>>7902970

That looks OK. Definitely serviceable. I could tell what it was without the reference photo. Or at least it looks like what I thought it was.

>>7901351
Are there any mods for Doom 64 to restore missing content?

How do I install Half Life from the link in pastebin? the torrent finished downloading but there are three zips (each one with bin files and a cue file) and also a sqlite file. Same thing for Opposing Force: bunch of bin files and a cue.
Am I missing something? or are these just the game soundtrack? sorry if I'm stupid.

>>7903109

>>7902298
>>7902327
Niggers, no, it's already taken multiple months, no need to drag this meme out for another year. The rules for the event were to make a hard, short map and to submit it by like the end of March.
It's over. Wait for the next one. Goodbye.

Respect Dark Forces

I'm working on a map. Nothing groundbreaking as usual.

Is there any way of making items respawn in SP?
Or making items respawn on their own in the first place?

What makes a map without BLOCKMAP lag so much?

>>7903120
Okay, I opened the game now but now it's asking for validation in order to play the game, what now? should I apply the update that is linked nn the pastebin too?

A Sandy-style mega-wad to piss off people who complain about Doom II's levels sounds like a hilarious project. Every map with forced pistol starts and tightrope platforming like The Chasm.

If you ever did that, then shame on you.

>>7903091
Gerardo is developing one, but keep in mind that he might get another meltdown and delete the whole project.

>>7903434

Just play shovelware wads, there's a bunch of sandy's style maps.

>>7903591
Give us another idea then fagotron

>>7903650
Not him but what about a DM wad?

Should I bother with Heretic if I loved Classic Doom but hate the "idea" of Heretic?
I only ever watched videos of it, but it looks so lame and lacking in impact. Shooting magic spells from a first person perspective is gay as fuck, it's not even 10% as satisfying as shooting firearms.

>>7903743
Don't bother, move on.

>>7903743
If you're such a faggot that you have to ask instead of just downloading the goddamn .wad, just fuck off m8.

>>7903743
If you don't like how Heretic looks, you probably won't enjoy playing through it. Just skip it.

>>7903743
>Shooting magic spells from a first person perspective is gay as fuck
I mean if you're a whiny faggot little baby bitch boy sure skip Heretic, fucking plebeian.

>>7903692
Is making DM maps hard compared to single player? If not, I'd be down.

>>7903743

Godammit you faggots and your terrible ideas, just make something similar to 2048units but better. it's 2021, we have to do another session of mapping.

>>7903650
How about this idea here?

I think it'd be really fun

Alternate deflation death for Spawns is delayed because the .mdl exporter for Blender is being being bitchy and giving the vaguest error messages imaginable. Should be able to make decent (lava) nail grunt/enforcer variants now at least.

>>7903743
Play PC Powerslave. It takes a lot of design cues from Heretic, polishes up the rough bits, and then hands you an M60 as your workhorse.

>>7904164
How do we load our own wads with doomseeker? Is having it in your wads folder enough? (open question)

>>7904170
usually doomseeker marks a folder to automatically download files it grabs in, you can change it and also throw wads into there manually if you need to

>>7904143
I think its a good game but for some reason when i got to the last 3/4ths of the game. I felt more like i didn't want to keep playing but did any ways cause i was that far into the game to stop.
Also its got like "points of no return" cause of it having no traditional end level screen. So you'll go through like 3 to 5 what would be a level in another game like duke 3d

And it will say something like

Its kinda shitty how its done and should be done after you leave the area. Cause when i first played, I'd go wall hump for 30 minutes or something like a moron. To only find one more secret

>>7901386
How variable to different realms and whatnot are Doom 64's textures? They all seem rather closely grouped to the same theme

>>7904218
Maybe they were going for a retro feel with her in game design? Gives me a bit of Perfect dark/ Oni/ RE1 character design vibes.

Though it woulda been better if they had just gone with what the cover art implied.

>>7904202
Her quotes are just kinda lame, even the ones lifted from media, one liners are fucking hard to write and that's why Duke and Blood stole most of theirs.

>>7904280
The tan hell ones are pretty interesting, but other than that most of them are pretty earthy. It mostly depends on how you use level geometry and lighting, like how In The Void just uses regular castle wood and brick textures.

>>7904280
They're actually much more versatile than you would expect.
Especially because you can mirror them vertically or horizontally on a linedef with Doom64's engine, and change them with colored lights. You can also put flats on walls and vice versa.

The range of themes goes from techbase to hell of course, but you can make all sorts of things from forested log cabins, to cavelike badlands and lakes, to a concrete jungle, gothic castles, or ancient temples if you use them right.

Even with all this though, at the end of the day we can always add more textures if we need to, it's fairly easy and if anybody's willing to make some, they are more than welcome to use them.

I've already used custom textures on the blue and yellow door, a midtex chain that holds the yellow key, and the big wood beams in the video. I also hacked together a transparent arch for that demonstration. All in all, I'm pretty sure we'll be good on textures :)

>>7904248
Thus ends the shitshow, thanks for coming.

>>7904475
I would say that the "concrete" brick ones (picrel) aren't very earthy at all, I really like them because they have the potential for Ancient Greco Roman Asethetics.

Your first mistake is calling it a boomer shooter. Don't buy into that marketing trash. As for your mapping woes, look how people make doom maps, start taking notes, pay attention to how all this shit works.

>>7904792
Don't get discouraged. Level design is a skill. Like any skill, it takes time and practice to get better at it. Play more wads (both good and bad), take notes on what you like, take notes on what you dislike.

Also keep in mind that your enemy design is just as important as level design. DOOM's enemy roster has been finalized for nearly thirty years, but people still find ways to make new and exciting encounters with them.

>DRLA monsters + trailblazer (probably both terribly outdated)

I'm the resident Ion Fury fag and I really love the game. The weapons feel powerful and satisfying, the level design is really good and the game's got quite a lot of substance to give you a run for your money.

>>7904182
I personally like how they do warn you about missing secrets in the area because well, it would be lame if you were hunting for the secrets and not knowing until after you got past it. I left hunting for secrets for subsequent playthroughs.

>>7904441
>her quotes are kinda lame
Well that certainly fits with Duke inspirations. I love Duke but having recently replayed the game and the expacs, most of Duke's lines boil down to ''Blow it out your ass'' when you explode enemies. Then of course you get a unique line at the end of some episodes but drawing comparisons between Ion Fury and Duke I'd honestly say Ion Fury does quite well. Different style of character but in execution I don't know much what else they could've done to ''spice her up''. Maybe a few more 'random' voice lines but overall she fine and her portrait is pretty and I like how she becomes more bloody when taking damage like wolf3d/DOOM guy.

>>7905114
Does IF gave any sort of health refill exploit like in Duke3d or SW? Im talking about the 'drink from sink-tap and 'punch the training dummies' tricks not everone knows or has patience doing them...

Started making the attack animation.
Looks Chad as fuck.

>>7902741
You just need to make the final set of greyish pixels one bit flower to overlap into the green hose end (so that the nozzle end bites into it slightly), and thats pretty much it really ;)

>>7905224
*one pxl bit lower*

>>7904887
It has the second most chaingunners out of any official level (62), beaten only by Stronghold from TNT (68).

>>7905209
Pretty great, Anon. Am I too late to suggest imaginary enemies to fight? Because what I loved as a kid was fighting imaginary dragons.

>>7905207
It has vending machines, but they only have like 10 cans in them each.

>>7905252
Thanks. No, it's not too late for anything, I haven't started on a single enemy.
Dragons are also a thing I haven't thought about, especially with breathing fire and such. Great idea.

Also, I am now satisfied with the animation. I originally only wanted to have two frames, but somehow it's now 4. At least I could reuse some arms, but I think it looks pretty good now. Now all I have to do is the rotations ;_;


Also, I want to point all you interested people to >>7902968 with the (at least for now) finished garden hose.

>>7901798
Assuming you mean Doom and/or Quake, you can just play good usermaps that you like and analyze them.

I'd advise against spending time making Duke and Blood maps because that's a lot harder and clunkier to do, but that's not to say that you can't study your favorite levels from there to learn how they're good.

You need to go over what you really like about your favorite Doom and Quake levels, what makes them fun to explore, what makes the fights exciting, what makes them look good, what gives them their atmosphere, what makes their secrets interesting. Enemy encounter design in particular is something you need to ponder a lot, as First Person Shooters are primarily about combat.

There does exist some material which you can study a bit for Doom level design, like the Evolution Of The Wad series, which is somewhat long winded, but a lot of what those dorks jabber about is pretty relevant and interesting to designing levels.

Then, you'll make something like a 6 or 7 level episode for Doom 2, use Boom or MBF21 format because it's straightforward and versatile. Draw inspiration from your favorite maps. Level designing isn't a skill which comes out of nowhere, you need to build and hone it, and if you say you already have a good basis for your game otherwise, you've made good progress already, you've just hit a bump.

>>7904814
>take notes on what you dislike.
This is SUPER important.

Note what you like, and then think about why you like it, just the same, note what you don't like and then think very hard about why you don't like it, and how it can be done better.

>>7905451
I love that, fighting zombies is really fun for me.

>>7905358
>>7905336
dunno if you're not there anymore or missed the reply, but can you tell me what you meant by "looking too even"?

>>7905529
Missed it, sorry. Basically the timing is all the same, there's no buildup and tension and it's all the same speed, so it looks kinda weak and slow. I messed with the timing a bit to illustrate what I mean, but I think ultimately it needs more frames in the windup for the proper effect

>>7905425
I use Doom Builder 64, a fork of Doom Builder made by Kaiser himself, it's pretty badass. You can get it here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/doom64ex/files/tools/builder64/?

The "format" is completely unique though. It's like a mix of Vanilla and Hexen format, with it's own set of weird quirks of course, and colored lighting as well. It's a bit of a learning curve, but you can get used to it pretty quick.

Still, if you need any help, you can ask here in the thread or shoot me an email at johnnyshidnuckles@protonmail.com, I'll be more than willing to help! :)

>>7905628
Ah, I see. Yeah, timing is not an issue yet, I just slapped the frames together and made a gif to have *something* to see if the movement itself works or not, of course for the game it will be tweaked, but thanks for your input.
I also thought about having more windup frames, but honestly, it's just so much work, especially considering originally I only wanted to have two frames attack animation à la Doom.

Don't know about that. I jumped in Maximum Fury for my first time and went for 100% playthrough/all achievements. No regret, it was a lot of fun. That was challenging, but not as painfully difficult as I thought it would be. Only hard parts for me were Z1A5 & Z7A2 since both of them had arena fights that were quite rough on my potato laptop.

Made a streetlamp, undecided on whether I should use dynamic lights or make bright sectors.

Because it definitely offers a shitty 10Hz netcode.

>>7902298
I could maybe be persuaded to take part of a smaller "add-on pack" or something, where when HFFM is finished for good, maybe you, me, and any other interested anon do one added level each (starting with a modified Map 19) and then release that as a separate .wad you load onto HFFM itself.

>>7906380
Rangebans are only ever used if someone is evading while being absolute pain in the ass, to my knowledge. Seems unfair to all the other people in the range, but on the other hand you don't have a lot of choice if someone is spamming CP and you can't ban them otherwise.

Managed to make "trampleable" stuff. It's pretty hacky, but at least it works, although I don't know how much of an impact it will have on performance if I do the same with fields of tall grass.
Basically it's a regular decoration with some added monster states. I found out that A_Look and A_Chase are substantial for this to work, everything else is not needed. So basically the cabbage starts looking around after spawning, "chasing" the player with its 0 speed and upon entering its Melee state directly continuing to death, and that's already the whole magic. I'm sure there's a more elegant and less ressource-intensive way, but for now it works.

Spawn:
CABB A 10 A_Look();
Loop;
See:
CABB A 4 Fast A_Chase();
Loop;
Melee:
CABB A 1;
Death:
CABB B -1;
Stop;

The fps readings come from having the laptop on maximum energy saving and also having a ton of 3D floors and other effects in this particular map, but I already found out that my laptop on maximum energy saving already can barely manage regular Doom 2 with the same settings and a 1440p resolution, so I am trying and see how far I can push the maps themselves before it becomes really unplayable.

>>7906380
Fixed what? The tickrate or the cheating?
The speed hacking only worked on certain vanilla servers. All the Tastyspleen ones were immune. What a terrible netcode, just asking to be abused.

>>7906395
>but on the other hand you don't have a lot of choice if someone is spamming CP and you can't ban them otherwise.
I can totally understand that. Cancer needs to be destroyed, completely. If a bit of healthy tissue it also killed, so be it.
But holy shit, I know how shitty that is. I used to have some subhuman piece of shit in my range that prevented me from uploading files, which of course is shitty if you want to show people your project's progress.
That said, it's a shame they can't (or won't?) identify those that are responsible for the rangeban, because I would love to hear about them getting a visit from some pissed off anon.

>>7906396

>>7906396
No. Very bad. When coding anything, you always prefer to make an object react automatically to stimuli rather than constantly check for stimuli. Its possible to achieve this same effect by inheriting from the switchable decoration class. That way it wont be constantly running unnecessary AI functions. Look on zdoom wiki.

uac ultra is the only wad (beside official releases) that I can replay over and over, but everything else I tried (which includes pretty much all the popular ones) are either too slow or too slaughtery for my tastes, I want something else to play but nothing really clicks

>>7905965
This one was great. The overall appearance of it reminds me of something, but I'm not 100% certain on what.

>>7906396
That's incredibly inefficient, but unless you plan on having lots of linedef detail it'll probably not matter too much.

What would work better would be if you removed the Melee state and instead gave the actor the +TOUCHY flag, then it'll just go to the death state immediately when it touches anything.
Since you're doing water guns though, that might end up goofy if you were to turn the garden hose on the cabbage an it just fucking shreds.

>>7906395
That'll probably work. What about the E2 sky though?

Sandy just spoils us with Quad Damages in Quake E4, gotta say these levels are his best in any game.

>>7906662
>you always prefer to make an object react automatically to stimuli
Yeah, I know, I just didn't think of that solution you suggested (which is quite a brilliant idea, I must say). I actually know about switchable decorations, but for some reason they're always in my mind as use-switches.

>>7906678
>that might end up goofy if you were to turn the garden hose on the cabbage an it just fucking shreds.
That's why they're currently set with the +INVULNERABLE flag, so they really only die on contact with the player, not by shooting at them.

>>7906686
FUCK! Here, what about this one? It's the E2 sky from Plutonia but I mirrored it and squashed it horizontally, and made it an orange/red gradient, so it kind of looks like sunset hours.

>>7906768
Looks kinda gnarly. Do you have the version before it was converted?

>>7906728
>Yeah, I know, I just didn't think of that solution you suggested (which is quite a brilliant idea, I must say). I actually know about switchable decorations, but for some reason they're always in my mind as use-switches.
Theres different flags so you can make them activated in any number of ways, including touching. I recall using them to make a bear trap for a project.

Map limits. Default is 8192^3 (+/- 4096 in any direction). You can extend them under the map tab, but you'll need to use -bsp2 in your compiler.

>>7906989
I think bsp2 is actually only relevant to map complexity limits. It doesnt affect the limits of the extents of the map. To increase that, you need to change the protocol for your engine.

Eradicator-Evolva conjunction is the sole root behind SeriousSam/Paikiller-alikes, Arcane Dimensions included.
Plutonia is irrelevant.

Ok guys, I'm on my first playthrough of quake and... its really just not that good. The movement is top notch. Easily best part of the gameplay. Just moving around is satisfying. Everything else is.... meh. Drab color scheme, guns suck, sound design is hit or miss, and the music is shit. Spooky sewer sounds does not make a song and I make the same argument against doom 64. I'm halfway through episode 3 and I'm not gonna finish. Do the mission packs get better? For something so influential I can't believe it was entirely a "you had to be there at the time" piece. What am I missing or just not getting? What draws you guys to quake?

>>7906564
you can hack around it. check this: https://files.catbox.moe/eb0wmb.map
if you're planning to add a lot of them, it would be easier to do it in qc though (rather than making individual targetname pairs)

Dark Forces 2 still is the best 1997 fps.

>>7907096
>For something so influential I can't believe it was entirely a "you had to be there at the time" piece.
Sifted.

>>7907096
Quake is in the sweet spot between slow Doom enemies and annoying Unreal enemies, they keep you on your feet and require constant movement, unlike in most other shooters. a single fiend in a corridor is a threat, as is a single ogre in a corner.
having three weapons in the 'accurate full-auto' role is a bit lame, but since all of them eat through nails/cells so quickly, you still get to juggle weapons around regularly - again, unlike most shooters when you can just stick with one workhorse weapon.
levels are down to taste I guess.

>>7906678
Man, these are tough with only one eye.
Weren't there supposed to be custom death messages, by the way?

>>7907143
This, also the game is pretty liberal with Quad Damage powerups, which you gotta use as much as you can. Also worth noting that Shamblers take half damage from explosions, and the shotguns don't give you the same generous overpenetration like in Doom, so you shouldn't count on that.

>>7907096
make sure you're playing on hard at least btw, so that you're getting the intended encounters in the vanilla game. E4M4 isn't the same without patrolling shamblers jumping down from their bridges.

>>7907150
there weren't, but nothing's stopping us from adding them

>>7907195
>>7907150
Alright, fine, I'll add those too. Geez, you people are needy. I guess I'll soon post a Version 1.3 with the new skies, fixed Map 01, and gaybituaries.

>>7907205
nothing's stopping us from not adding them either anon

>>7907096
>What draws you guys to quake?
it’s fun :)

>>7907096
I like the big monster mans and I like how evil game feels like it feels like you will be raped by monster any second but it doesn't happen cuz you are powerful and you beat these these spike peoples to death lol also I like in the levels theres cool castle architecture like roofs with wood and metal and cool places like cool graveyards and torture rooms and stuff and the people with blood everywhere and in the shadows just dismembered visarel and monster that doesn't have eyes but know exacty where you are and the sword peoples and just throw magic anywhay and chainsaws and shit and like the lanterns or lights fire things behind the bars makes shadows crazy just massive shadow remind me when I was little and 1 light on in house only just go through all the rooms and shadows everywhere at 3 am lol

>>7907207
Wrong, I'M stopping you.

>>7907096
I like chucking grenades into the faces of things, I like rocket jumping 50 feet into the air, I like trying to do the shambler dance in the middle of a firefight, I like doing rad airstrafes to make vorepods smack into enemies, I like the low-tech/medieval/eldritch art direction, I like quad damage, and I like getting mad speed with bunnyhopping

There are legitimate criticisms to be had for the game, but I find the positives to completely outweigh them

>>7906586
Looks like a bunch of toenail clippings.

Anybody seen this glitch before?
I shrank em down, then before i got a chance to squish them
I got ass raped by Pig Shotgunners
Then when i went back to fight the Mini Battlelords
They just walked around in circles like morons
and all my attacks went right through them
Splash damage didn't effect them either

>>7907596
Sorry Anon, won't be shitwadding for a bit. I've been negligent with my job and I need to catch up.

>>7907628
Understandable. I would suggest closing the 4chan tab though.

>>7907628
Ahh fuck, I was waiting for another stream.

Lol

Hell Scrag test is promising. Should make for a fun fight in small groups. Might make the texture a bit more subtle, not sure.

https://files.catbox.moe/0ab3c2.mp4

>>7907602
im pretty sure this is why you don't see many diagonals in doom

>>7906380
>The promise of a Bethnet server for all quake games seems to have died out with a new source port and the console ports like DOOM.
When and who made such promise? What exactly was promised? I tried to look that up, but can't find any mentioning of it. No article or anything like that. Would be nice if you have something as a prove.
>>7907096
It's just great. Gameplay, visuals, music... The game works and feels really well. Planning to replay Mission Packs at some point (they're good as well) + go through many mods/maps. Something I didn't really do when it comes to DOOM or any other game because I'm not much of a mod player, but in case of Quake it seems to be an exception. I simply wanna play more Quake, even though there's a ton of other games waiting for me in my Steam library... Damn, I might even try to make my mod (probably not, because I'm an indecisive loser with potato laptop).
It kind of bothers me that I abandoned my Heretic/Hexen marathon though.

Yo kegan, have you ever considered gradius-inspired weapons for combined arms? there's a fuckton of weapons from the series that look like untapped potential for some fun stuff if you ask me (pic related)

>>7907804
I thought about it, hell there was a point where I was gonna make a Vic Viper rifle for Combined_Arms Gaiden.
But I got all the sets I wanna make planned out now. If I add any more I'm gonna be at this shit forever.

>>7907817
what's gaiden?

>>7907817
ah well, would've loved to see some gradius representation. regardless, I have no doubt what you have planned already will be just as fun and cool as the rest of the sets
>>7907832
https://combine-kegan.itch.io/combined-arms-gaiden

>>7907751
I like it.
Out of curiosity, can it do a different move like the Hell Knight?

>>7907848
>Out of curiosity, can it do a different move like the Hell Knight?
What do you mean?

If I use a 128x128 brightmap for a 64x64 flat will it scale to the 64x64 map pixels, or will it repeat across multiple tiles?

>>7907852
Hell Knight can either use his sword or attack with his arrows, unlike a regular knight.
Saw Hell Scrag's body and thought maybe he was a little too hot to get close or something.

>>7907860
Oh, no, he doesn't have an alternate attack or anything. Might be able to make some sort of 'damage on touch' feature for monsters, but I don't think I can feasibly apply it to corpses.

I was playing Quake with the 1.5 mod on "The Elder God Shrine" (E4M3) and while I was playing it something quite odd happened, one of the flying enemies I gibbed got it's head stuck on the floor but it didn't actually died as his head kept doing idle sounds and followed me around the map, it was impossible to kill so I dragged it into a lava trap thinking it would burn it and make it dissapear but dear god... it made things worst as it kept gibbing on the lava endlessly and it started to affect my frames no matter how far away I was from it, so I hitted the console and typed "noclip" and went to the map's exit as quickly as I could as it was impossible to play due to how laggy it was even after quicksaving and loading the issue persisted, from a creepy head following me on the ground to a gibbing lag machine, quite the experience.

>>7907952
Don't know, sounds like what one should expect from The Elder World.

>>7902472
neat

>>7907762
? what does that mean?

>>7907205
If you want, I could write some death messages, quit messages, and anything else that hasn't been covered yet.
>>7908000
Checked

>>7907602
According to Duke wiki:
>If a Battlelord Sentry is shrunk (which is possible if auto-aim is deactivated and if the player shoots near the Battlelord Sentry's feet), then it will never attack the player ever again, even after returning to its normal size.
I wasn't aware that they became invincible also. I think if you shoot a shrunk enemy with a bullet, it becomes impossible to kill.

>>7908001
Doom used a tile based mapping format and did not have slanted wall tiles, so the only way to make diagonal walls in a map was to put the straight wall tiles corner-to-corner. You could make these tiles only 1 pixel wide which would make the effect more convincing (which is what modern maps do), but this caused frame drops on older computers and had to be used sparingly.

>>7907952
Quake 1.5 is in beta, perhaps indefinitely, and runs on a specific version of Dark Places, and DP was already known to be buggy

Just finished Quake 2 and it was really easy, it was a step down from Quake in every single regard except graphics. How are the mission packs? I figured I might play them too.

>>7908037
>perhaps indefinitely
What? Why?

>>7908024
Thats a weird glitch. Thats never happened to me playing Duke before. It kinda reminded me of the ghost enemies in doom.

I have gotten totally destroyed by one of the mini second episode bosses. Idr what they're called but not the mini cycloids. The other ones that shoot rockets to.

>>7908031
Ahh that makes sense i guess i've never really messed around with mapping besides screwing around in mapster 32

>>7908052
I meant like i shrunk em down and they blasted me in the face with a rocket while tiny lol

>>7908051
Dude went to go work on Slayer's Testicles I think.

>>7908091
thank you for making me forcefully blow air through my nose

>>7908091
Goddamnit. That sucks.

>>7908031
Doom only had perfectly flat wall and floor surfaces, but it wasn't tile based (like Wolfenstein 3D), it uses linedefs and vertices to form sectors. You draw out a shape from a number of vertices linked by linedefs, and the linedefs have textures and other properties applied to them.

So let's just assume someone were to update the "SO YOU WANT TO FUCKING PLAY SOME DOOM" image. Where would REKKR go? The TC section, or the 4chan section?

>>7908143
TC, since it's a full and proper one. I don't think anyone else has done a TC here on /vr/. I guess maybe make a note that a lot of the development was shown off here on the board, and anons gave a bunch of input.

>>7907096
I dunno, at first I thought it was "meh" too, just felt like brown doom. Then I went back a couple years later and it was the coolest shit ever. Just stick with it, it gets much better artistically after halfway through episode 1 imo

>>7904143
I finished it earlier this year and loved every minute of it

>LANGUAGE lump, adding some obituaries and exit lines (exit lines can probably also be added to the base version with DeHacked)
>some more new sounds
I'd like to hear what you all think about the new sounds, as well as the obituaries and death messages. New sounds are all Gachi, but they don't all have to be (see the gimp, for instance, I think that muffling the meatball's sounds just the same would work well). Some of the obituaries are half hearted, I'd appreciate ideas here.

If anyone knows any more bugs, please chime in.

>>7908218
Please tell me the cyberdemon obit is something like
>Player was shown who is the boss of this gym.

>>7908218
>// Option Values
>OPTVAL_BILINEAR = "Graf Mode";
I love you anon.

>>7908218
So, the text strings for cheat codes, the chainsaw, and the visor are unchanged in the dehacked file so they won't show up in boom and whatnot. Should be a quick fix.

>>7907751
Is there any way to make the models skin texture animated? It would honestly feel hot as hell if possible

[6-29] Decay announces Liberosis, releases demo

>>7908246
I was thinking of a rifle stylized as Vic Viper when he said that

>>7908246
What the fuck, I never found that. But that other Anon is right: I was gonna make some kinda rifle that LOOKED like the Vic Viper.
I went with the Castlevania knives and I'm glad I did, I had a lot of fun with that cool little flip you do with them.

>>7908258
I think a vic viper shaped rifle would make for a great railgun with the twin prong thingies at its front end. Maybe I should steal that idea in the future
>I never found that
Go replay Contra 4 right fucking now lol

>>7906587
I was thinking about having a Door or piece of Wall/Floor brush dissapear behind some cosmetic/less-deadly explosions once a relevant nukage crate gets 'killed' - very akin to that one Warehouse level in Quake2 where a tiny crate makes a fuck-hueg explosion for no reason, and blasts the jammed door away that took you to the levels exit...

Anybody have any idea how one would go about making some kind of mechanism that is activated for as long as the button is pressed?
What I mean is for example there is a bridge to raise and depending on how long you keep the lever pulled, it rises higher and higher. Or have a stuck door you have to pry open and you have to hold the use button until it's fully open, kind of like God of War's doors, except without the mashing.
My main problems here are:
1. How to make a lever/switch that instantly goes to its inactive state when the button is not pressed anymore
2. How to actually check if the button is held and get the exact moment the button is not held anymore.

Some Decorate solution would be preferred, but ZScript should also work.

Why do you fuckers hate it so much when I release Vanilla maps in zDoom format?

Should I dare go into the fields and forests?

>>7908361
Don't do it! That's where the ticks live!

>>7908363
Too late! This is where boys become men. Although... I am still on the path.
Should I go into the long grass?

Looks great. Just not sure why you decided to set it at dusk when everything's lit for noontime

>>7908372
Doesn't fit with the current plan, although I had actually considered at one point having berry bushes (the thorned ones) as "difficult" terrain that slows you down.

>>7908375
I'm just testing skies. This isn't even an actual level, just my test map I use to try out all the assets (doesn't mean that the real maps won't use some of that stuff I put in here).

Also, I DID go into the tall grass! Because I'm a pretty cool guy and don't afraid of anything. My dad's friend Ajay always said "DON'T GO INTO THE LONG GRASS!", but he's a paki, so who cares lol

>>7908385
I am not sure how to feel here....
Should I go deeper into the tall grass or go back home again? Who knows what lurks in the depths of this lost world?

>>7908403
The more shit you post, the more excited I get. You've seriously got to have some kind of urban legend wandering around in that place.

>>7908409
Don't get too excited, it's just tall grass.
There is probably nothing here of interest, unless I find a piece of amber or something.

Yeah. Even though Plutonia has the most chaingunners out of the iwads with 704, TNT still has a lot of them with 601, and uses 1041 shotgunners compared to Plutonia's measely 315.

>>7904143
I like it, it's incredibly solid. I'd change a few things, like giving Shelley a more 80s haircut and some more city levels rather than the tunnel sections towards the end, but it's a very solid shooter. Some people say there's not enough novelty weapons, but I generally tend not to use them all that much in Build games anyway.

>>7904213
I think it's the voice direction. Her VA sounds a bit detatched.
