TO SUBMIT NEWS, REPLY TO THIS POST

Does babby or whoever runs SNS/FNF still accept requests/submissions for vrsounds and vrskins?

I decided to compile all the UV-Max demos for 200 minutes of /vr/ into a single video to make something of a wad showcase. Also recorded the demo for map33 that was missing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeFQO9wCHjQ

Now I can finally use those multi-grenades for their intended purpose

just noticed that doomguy has a backpack in this image

>>8830461

Has anyone been able to get any of the big source ports to run on Steam Deck?
I can't find the gzdoom wad directory the warning message is complaining about (also I'm a retarded linux newbie) and eduke doest run at all.

Sent from my Steam Deck using Tapatalk.

Can you guys recommend some wads with pocket sized levels like Zone 300? I just finished Epic 2 and I really need a palate cleanser.

>>8830491
have dolphin show hidden directories,then go to where GZdoom tells you to (starting from the users home directory)

>>8830489
>forgetting about the Chocobo key-combos
I only played the GBA ports and Skulltag, please forgive my shitty memory of Doom

>>8830491
also bonus tip for BLOOD,if you get really bad stuttering,use raze,OR,take the SDL.dll file from a newer kex game (like quake or powerslave) and plop it in,makes it work like a charm on linux.

The congested series are pretty good, I assumed you already played through 2048 Units of /vr/. There's also these:

Here's a ZIP containing the DECOhack text file. I've also included the wad containing the sprites.

Sounds like a cool idea! Would be hard to balance though.

>>8830653
>actually its __G___
Next up is this one here. . .

>>8830494
I highly recommend Congestion 1024 as well as Claustrophobia 1024, like what this anon said >>8830530.
There's also Zone 300's sequel, Zone 400, that you could check out. I've personally never played it, but I've heard good things about it.
My last recommendation is 3x3: Take Two. Some of the maps in there are probably a little bigger than what you're asking for, but even then they tend to stay fairly simple.

>>8829653
HL and Q2 still look better without bilinear filtering disabled. Just because they enabled it by default doesnt mean it looked best. They still have 64-256 pixel textures like Doom or Q1. Only games with higher-res textures or detail textures look better with filtering. Like Unreal.

>>8830746

Utter state of the community.

>>8830943
Yes regen is kinda the best one for such gauntlets IMO - also the PoP secrets becomes available kinda too late to matter unlike the Quad & HoC does aswell

It's hard to get feedback this days. Does this crack look normal to you? First time I actually drew something pixel by pixel.

>>8830746
>miss muh shot
>used based lot
>hitscan start
Bars tho???

Its a small comfy slaughtermap with a cool concept at start, but not much to post about sadly - better play it yoursef honestly

>>8830018
>Does VR should have the Voreling-spawning Sharlaths as an another Vore variant or will it make this mod too much of an AD-clone in your opinion?
I could probably just add that as a spawnflag for Vores, in the spirit of PD2 and whatnot. I think the way they work in AD - with them throwing their eggs at the player, is kinda retarded though. It just comes across as a poor excuse to not make a new animation.
I'd like to make them shit the egg out from underneath and kick it forward with their back leg, ideally. That way they can still have a regular attack.
>>8830829
Yep. I think most people missed the reference.
The actual combat section is admittedly pretty lame though. I had started remaking it (pic related) with the intention of having a proper Quake level between the starting gimmick and getting to the arena, but it was taking retardedly long so I decided to focus on code stuff instead. I'll get back to it eventually.

>>8830994
not bad
maybe the black crack looks cartoony but it's better than blending in to the point it's unnoticeable

>>8830994
I could see someone confusing it for a weird decal or something. It's obvious enough what you're going for, but it's also obviously edited—try softening the color on the crack a little to match the palette of the rest of the skull. Other than that I couldn't recommend anything specific, I'm a shitty pixel artist; I ain't no Ocean's Dream.

>>8831042
It's supposed to be specifically used for a shootable switch. Making the crack less back seems like it might work though. I'll try it out.

>>8831046
That's what I figured. Actually, you might want to reconsider what your bullet hole looks like entirely; there's a reason that other anon called it "cartoony".

>>8831075
I should clarify, I don't mean to make the bullet hole realistically detailed. Rather, bullets don't create crack patterns like that in real life. Look up photo refs for whatever material you think your skull switch is made of.

has anyone ever used WadC ?

>>8831075
yeah, I'll try using that.

give wads

>>8830771
Argent is still the best one.

No its not a WIP
>rune status: __G_U_

what mods have the best bosses?

>>8831284
Hideous Destructor, even if there are munitions capable of one-shotting them. They make for great tense fights whenever you don't have those.
Bratwurst has some cool IoS replacements, ranging from projectile bullet hell to what basically amounts to a port of Doom 2016's Cyberdemon.

>>8831284
GMOTA.

>>8831315
Now what makes you say that?

Doom.

>>8831316
They're decently challenging, fun to fight, and they have fun see sounds, death animations, and taunts. And they're funny. The Cybermancer is a big doofus who can't talk right and the Edgelord's clones scream like little girls when you attack them.

>>8830048
I'm glad someone liked the gimmick

>>8831446
>Romero this isn't a megasphere—

>>8831343
Say what's the deal with the supposed entry point at start of map vomitting giblets when shot at?

>>8831446
Greetings fellow anonymous user. Does this bizarre looking mod happen to work with the advanced source port, GZDoom?

>>8831343
It's a great gimmick, anon.
Some people are just retarded though.

>>8830450
Kex Quake's QC source got released, which includes DotM as well as the other expansions.

>>8831457
Probably, but not out of the box, apparently.

I figured out how to make this even worse. Now it really looks like my graphic card is on fire.

I don't like making posts like these but are you still around jedd dillinger?

>>8831601
Since the HUD is untouched, I'm assuming you're just fucking with the colormap?

visitor from /sg/ here
We've been having some kid spamming unrelated pics and redditspaced blogposts for months now. Sometimes the kid disappears for a while, then he's back, baiting, samefagging and spamming, and talking to himself, trying to suck others into his bullshit and never engaging in any actual discussion(One Anon had enough at some point and doxed him lol). Another Anon mentioned that the same shit is happening over here every once in a while. Does the general style of pic rel look familiar? Just curious whether the kid really is active here, too.

>>8831612
Correct. Leaving HUD in kinda gave it away.
I'm fucking with colormap specifically because I want it to change as I walk around or fire gun.

>>8831615
I haven't seen an idiot like that here thankfully. Maybe someone else has.

>>8831615
>>8831624
yeah, I know this guy
he's a lot more active in /sg/ than /doom/ though, I see him a lot more over there than over here

>>8831191
>I forgot again to re-enable the mutators after loading the game, thats why it was more tolerable to play the past levels - including this one
Not that it made things any easier here though

>>8831615
I just did a little digging, and yep, it's him. He's more insistent on shitting on your guys lawn than ours though. Sorry you guys got him.

>>8831630
Oh christ alive, this idiot.

>>8831634
>>8831630
another pic of him on /sg/, for reference

>>8831626
I dunno if its an universal feeling, but to me disposing of inorganic enemies always seem to lack the same satisfaction when dropping some fleshbags, it must be the disintegrating corpses probably

>>8831646
>skipping on some more screengrabs again due to how angry this level made me because of the Q1 ladder physics shenaningans - getting pummeled while stuck floating mid-air glued to a wall isn't fun when theres no reward for it - one room was particularly dissapointing in that regrard (let's call it a basement) - at least one +25hp more placed somewhere at the start would make it a fine map, despite the specified 'unintentional gotcha moments'

This is a great general

>>8831615
he's still doing this shit? how have mods not banned this mental case yet

>>8831676
jannies don't care, I report all of his posts on /sg/ and he's still posting
someone doxxed him and he's underageb& too lmao

>>8831663
I have committed my first hate crime today by not allowing Floyd to obliterate my literally caucasian physiognomy, please don't report me to the BLM - or whoever is torching the streets nowadays. . .
>totally not a trap right here BTW

>>8831625
>>8831630
>>8831634
>>8831676
So it really is true.. I naively thought he'd somehow sobered up when he disappeared from /sg/, but then he was back again. Seems like he really does this on every general for any game he's playing atm. what a shitstain. Jannies just can't be arsed to Alt+Tab out of Runescape it seems. Sorry to hear you've had an infestation, too.

>>8831692
TIL that on Hard skill and above Edie is an input-reading bastard and needs to die ASAP, even when there's other obstacles present

>>8831694
The janny here's pretty good actually. In fact, I'm expecting this entire exchange to be deleted in about 2 minutes, so let's get back to dooming.

>>8831708
he went to hard too fast

>>8831707
Heres one of the less-obvious secrets of this map, shame how its so crucial to maintaining a enjoyable level of gameplay compared to others. . .

>>8831717
...cause otherwise its all relying on Scavenger-rumble mutator once the medkits dry-up, or just doing the good-old QS&QL finger tango while pretending it's any different than activating GodMode or other cheats mechanics-wise

>I have doubts if asking for including Axemen was a smart decision - however the MapAnons seem to like using them so whatever

>lost a couple of screenshots while changing PNG to JPEG formats, thats why those blogposts seem to be so brief and hectic compared to first ones from yesterday
Despite not quite enjoying this one too much, I like how it was 'compact' in a way - almost every place had purpose and the vertical use of the same location multiple times wasn't too boring, until the mop-up time came as usually expected

>>8831749
yeah axemen are weird, there's no real tactic against them in close-mid range, especially when all you have is ssg and the charge-up laser gun.
with the buffed player axe it might even be worthwhile to just run right up to them and tank a couple of hits, rather than attempt to dodge anything.

>>8831170
Here's mine. https://mega.nz/file/RpdxXLjZ#inlYXCP1Y6sq-m5vaApx_n-jm2Wc15ccfRPBF54aXUg
I hope you enjoy, and please feel free to leave feedback.

>>8828505
this one works great, but some enemies seem to miss alerts. also I feel once we start changing behavior it sort of defeats the purpose. or rather the purpose changes into trying to hit the new limits with x10 enemies or something.

actually I think doing the dedicated server at around 24 tics works pretty well all around, but I don't have as much time today to test things.

>>8831603
Ye.

>>8831824

Hard pass, but I'll pop in if I'm made aware of any streams that result from this.
I was never really that active compared to the rest of you guys anyway, it was fun to occasionally chat with you guys, but I'm content to just keep doing that here.

10sector.wad is great i only started playing it yesterday and wow.

It has something i can't describe regarding mapping style, maybe because it's from 2000 ?

Reminded me to Japanese Community Project, that wad also makes me feel that "something"

so i just finished the ram ranch map in HFFM. that map was amazing. i'll have to do this one over on UV.

I'm trying to install and run nblood for the first time but on the github page I got it from it's a pk3 instead of an exe, and when I try to launch it windows just asks me what I want to launch it with. I put all the required files from the base game (fresh supply, if that matters) where they belong but still nothing. am I missing something or am I just retarded?

>>8831958
both. you want the exe, from lerppu.net/wannabethesis/

>>8831975
forgot to mention, I tried going there but the link is dead for me

WARNING! ! !
THIS MAP IS UNIRONICALLY A SEXUAL EXPERIENCE !
too bad the randomizer crashed it once I got the jet-boots, re-doing it again will take some time

>>8831868
Sorry to hear that, wolpertortellini.
I understand though.

>>8832046
>too bad the randomizer crashed it once I got the jet-boots

Huuh?

>>8831878
which map is that, map07?

>>8832058
yes

>>8832053
I almost signed my post, but I figured it was obvious enough who I was.

>>8832060
I made that map, glad you liked it. That was my first serious attempt at a doom map and there's plenty I could have improved on. But as long as others enjoyed it then I'm happy.

>>8830449
whose demo is this? pretty good

I'll try again:

Are there any other mapsets or maps like Hellcore 2.0? I just love the feeling of being thrown into some bizarre set of real feeling places.

>>8832128
I can't give any recs, but I'm adding Hellcore 2.0 to my backlog now based on your description of "bizarre set of real feeling places." Thanks!

>Play going down
>wad already doing ammo starving gameplay 4 maps in

>>8832195
what difficulty?

>>8832195
Map03 is meant to be a tyson map, If you're playing continuous and are "ammo starved" on map04, it's because you did map03 wrong.

>>8832128
Check out Hellbound if you haven't already.

>>8830829
Haha, that fresco on the bottom right is awesome.

>>8832195
Are you playing on a difficulty that's not UV? I just ran through it and thought it was fine.

>>8832106
It's mine. My pb is slightly lower but I thought this run looked cooler.
Speaking of going down, here's map 07. I lowered the framerate and increased the resolution this time. Not sure if it's better.

Is it normal for D:RLA to have no blood splatter on walls or bullet casings? I like the mod a lot but this sorta spoils some of the fun of it for me.

>>8832391

>>8832705

Since UE4+ supports Ray Tracing, if you could work out how to port UE1 content all the way up to them you wouldn't even have to make a source port.

It goes hard for "look what we can do with our new engine look coloured lights" and still pulls it off in 2022
The flares and flashlight and adding refracted lights would be cool more gameplay-wise too.

I stumbled upon this completely shitty old assetflip on Steam, here's a playthrough of it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U83Ml5QHjXA

It's called "Psi Project" and it has some sequels, they're all shitty like this, a true kusoge, including all the stolen sprites and sounds. Can anyone identify where various assets are from? I've seen the guns before and know the zombie HUEHUUE noise is from HL2, but for some reason I just really like that pitch black ghost thing which blinks in and out of existence, and I really wish I knew where to find those sprites, because they're kinda cool.

>>8833289
Is this a full mod or just processed screenshot?

>>8832195
>a bloo bloo I can't hold left mouse down constantly

>>8833289
goddamn bro not on 4/20 that shit's not cool

>>8832014
use tor or smth, do I have to hold your hand

Finished Sigil a while ago and really liked it, but I expected something more, don't know why. Some new enemies and a new boss. But outside the cool puzzle system, soundtrack and map, we didn't really get anything new. But I heard that a Sigil 2 is coming. Did you like it? What do you expect from S2?

>>8833339
>But outside the cool puzzle system, soundtrack and map, we didn't really get anything new.
What do you mean by "anything new"?
It was deemed the 5th episode and as such it did well. Did you want new guns and enemies or what?

>>8833006
PB is superior. I can't think in any other way to inovate BD. But some thing I wish it was there: More enemies can talk or make noises indicating that they're 'smart' and not just demon animals. Also make them walk through the map, searching for you.

>>8833346
I mean, why not? It's not like it's official anyway. It's more of the same thing we already saw. It's one of my favorite chapters, but since it was a new release and after playing so many mods, I kinda expected a bit more, especially when Romero himself also plays mods. But I think that this was more of a test and we gonna see way more content in Sigil 2.

>>8833304
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeepDream

>>8833361
Well I mean, making assets is not easy. Has Romero actually ever done textures and sprites?
And if it had new assets it wouldn't be a vanilla episode anymore anyway.

>>8833304
>ammo, health, and armor numbers untouched
>clear edges where walls and floors meet, something deep dream probably wouldn't do
>scorch mark decals
going with full mod

>>8833339
Its probably my favorite "official" episode of Doom 1, but I also never really go out of my way to play Doom 1. I'm excited for Sigil 2 though.

>>8831830
Wouldn't it be better to communicate through these threads or something like that? I doubt isolating yourself in >discord will do any good other than becoming one huge circlejerk.

>>8832892
It would have been a perfect demonstration of what path tracing/ray tracing is capable of. That and it would make even more sense for it to require cutting-edge technology because that's how it was back when it released.

What is a nodebuilder?

>>8833503
It calculate various things for level that you don't directly draw.

>>8832923
I'm not sure whether UE4/UE5 actually support full ray tracing scenes, i've only seen them use ray tracing as a supplemented cheap effect for nicer reflections, but it's rendering the reflections as a separate low-res layer using very cheap/noisy low-sample tracing, and using upscaling/denoising algorithms to make it passable.
I suspect it would be less work to rewrite the renderer to be raytraced rather than port the game to another engine entirely, especially since then the feel/movement might differ.

>>8833503
It builds nodes.

>>8832054
Its probably related to this 'model shuffle glitch' I've encountered before in the RustyBucket level at start - fighting an invisible HellScrag was certainly something, but it happening somehow didn't crash the whole level back then
those were supposed to be candlesticks

>>8833532
what engine are you running, again?
since this is some sort of model index mixup, there could be an enemy walking about with the entire map's geometry being its model.

>>8832280
I will. I hope it's ghood.

Okay, fat chance of this, but who knows, might get lucky.
I'm looking for a specific wad for Doom. Pretty sure it was more or less a full campaign. Cannot put a name to it or any levels, I just randomly remembered it from my childhood, so we're talking 20+ years ago. I wanna say roughly 1997ish, but I can't be certain.
The only thing I remember about it is the demos on startup, because I spent so much time watching them more than I did actually playing it. I was more easily entertained as a child watching. They were co-op games, two out of three were 4 player co-op. And somehow they were different each startup, as in one of the three demos would actually have them make progress in the level rather than either just hang out at the start and/or die repeatedly a short ways in. You were also able to swap perspectives... I don't know how common that is, I don't see much in the way of co-op demos these days.

First level had Green/Red spawn in one area, Orange/Black in another. Was like two different sets of progress before they'd meet up later on toward the end of the level.
Second level had them spawn together in a big white room, most of the demos of that level just had them wander around that room, not too sure what the point was.
Third level was just two players, they spawned in what was basically a bunker or something.

I THINK the last level was an Icon of Sin, just sorta looked like a big open canyon, bit of water (or at least blue colouration to the level), two Spider Masterminds in the far corners and the wall the IoS was on was also a bunker full of imps and zombies shooting out the sides of him. Buuuuut that might be a different wad, I can't be certain.

Does that sound any sort of specifically familiar to anyone?
I'm looking wherever I can for it, but I'm also just sort of looking blind when I can't attach a name to it, I'm pretty much just trying to find pictures or videos or whatever and just looking for familiarity.

>>8833725

Sounds like Memento Mori.

>>8833339
New enemies in limit removing wouldn't be possible without replacing tons of stuff. 4th episode didn't have new enemies either, and Sigil continues the trend. Having too much new stuff wouldn't feel authentic fifth episode.

>>8832705
>>8832998
Unreal has far more... unreal lighting than Quake 2.

Since Quake 2 was built with radiosity in mind, it lends itself well to path tracing. It will be hard to give Unreal the treatment without serious modifications or concessions.

>>8833168
thats a thing?

I've never played doom and am going to for the first time with the 32X Resurrection version

>>8833821
Oh my fucking jesus, you nailed it. Holy shit.
I just looked up its map list and saw #7's layout looking semi-familiar, looked up a speedrun of it on youtube and that level rung every bell in my head of what I remember from all those years ago.

That is fucking incredible and I would hump you right now if I could. With my shitty recollection of it, I didn't have much hope finding it again. Huge relief off my head, looking for it was driving me up the fucking wall.
Thank you so much.

>>8833725

Thanks muchfords, it looks even better than expected - IIRC the vanilla Q2 engine had some problems rendering most of those levels in software mode back when I first played these about 14 years ago on my ancient desktop toaster PC, yet I always hated how OpenGL turns everything into a blurry mess just to enable coloured lighting as compensation

>>8834634
Map03 was cool. Great atmosphere, with the vats and all that stuff, though I just couldn't find out how to get to the berserk secret.
Map04 was short and fun, although rather cramped in some places.
Map05 was great, but I feel a pretty trolled finding the megasphere right before the end, fully stocked up on ammo, thinking I am gonna slay now, just to have to kill myself and pistol start the next map.

10 is used in Monster Condo and 14 is unused in stock Doom.

>>8834624
Word of advice - don't go to into the big pipe when you obtain the boots - they stop being unlimited once you pass that area and miss-out on shitload of secrets otherwise - if you don't wanna cheat that is...

>>8834874
Both are in vanilla Doom. Sectors with the 10th effect close 30 seconds after the map starts and sectors with the 14th effect open 5 minutes after the map starts and closes immediately after. 10 is used in MAP27: Monster Condo and 14 is unused in stock Doom levels.

I'm probably going to add an alternate method to get that secret when we go back for episode 2. A lot of people have had trouble with it, despite my attempts over time to make it more obvious without completely giving it away. Hug the back wall (to the left in pic related) as the lift goes down, you should find yourself standing on a narrow ledge, which leads to the zerk's level.

Holy fucking shit I think I hugged every wall in that fucking room, including jumping on those pipes or what it was supposed to be, but never the back there. Especially with how you can't UNF the outermost parts of that platform I though there was a switch somewhere to lower those sections.

>>8834968
Will this mean free ‘Dimension of the Machine’?

>>8834983

What I meant is, once you enter this area where the Grapple is located, the JetBoots will only allow for one jump from now on

Come to think of it, if KEXQ2 get announced at quakecon, and fixes the issues Q2 had like the AI, Model jittery by replacing with md5 own animations and making use of the unused stuff.

>>8835057
That is because only recently Q1 got into where Q2 mapping stopped 20 years ago and Q1 mapping REALLY improved from there, and Q2 mapping unlike Q1 itself where even with fagweather trying to kill everything over his mental disease, is pretty much divided, and mainly now that Quadz is dead.
Plus, Q2 has everyone hating each other due to Muh MP vs Muh SP clients, you see Multiplayer maps for Q2 receiving more love and even custom tilesets than Single player maps, where no one ever gave a fuck to give Q2 its own Quakespasm with lazarus included and extended limits, and you have the retarded RTX client which is made on top of Q2Pro, and Q2pro is shit for single player quake2 as it never received proper support, Yamagi is full of autistic purists who hates lazarus support, and KMQ2 has Knightmare who made 3.24 and added Lazarus support for advanced mapping, but with zero extended limits like quakespasm.

If anything, the best Q2 mapper atm is Quakewulf, and he is still using archaic tools for it, since Q2 itself never received proper mapping support using Trenchbroom.
Only J.A.C.K. supports Q2 entirely on the same way Arghrad and Radiant had, and J.A.C.K. is a HL modding tool.
TL;DR we will never see Q2 community united ever again like in the past when PlanetQuake and Polycount was a thing https://twitter.com/polycount/status/1516865946807193601 and even if they remaster the game the same way Q1 was, people would find ways to never make it move forward out of schism and bickery.

This entire community needs a divine miracle to be united once more for the sake of mapping.

Its real shame that he refuses to touch Lazarus to give his work some extra depth, regular Quake2 stopped being viable ever since that project came into life so long ago just to prove that Q2 had so many wasted potential - I mean come on, fixing the conveyor belts, randomized mid-level spawns and making the insta-death laser into a healing beam? This should've been the default part of the main game from the start

The Deaths of Planetquake, TeamBlur and tenfourmaps, followed by Tim "Argh" Wright disappearance in 2008 while he was working on the extended updates for ArghRad, the schism caused by the MP vs SP client shenanigans(R1Q2 vs Q2pro), and the russian community telling the community to eat a dick because of this source port bickering, which led to the creation of berserkerQ2 after Q2Evolved's development died off suddenly once Q4 came out, pretty much killed Q2 mapping in the West post 2010's.

Q1 Survived because Baker and Spirit's iron fist kept everyone united in the 2000's and later stuff like AD and nyarlathotep started to show up to promote quakespasm off fitzquake's developmen0t, even DarkPlaces with the autistic model texture packs made by rygel helped with Q1's popularity, and you had good shit that died soon like Tenebrae with the idtech 4 lightning and shadows.

also Quakewulf really does good shit, though now he is experimenting with the RTX client with his new map.

Sorry about that. If Ad Mortem ever get's revisted, I'll probably touch up the difficulty levels in Map02. Although even then I'd still keep the two Archies after the red key, simply because I like how they're introduced with the lights going dark and the wall lowering to reveal blood.
As of now, I'm just happy it's in a state where everything works. For a little bit the supercharge secret was unretrivable because I forgot a hanging corpse blocked players.

>>8835593
^kinda underwhelming if it's indeed done like it at this early on into the level^
BTW didn't the PlasmaRail supposed to penetrate multiple enemies? I swear it fails to do so for me if yes

>>8831823
Gave it one more go, time to bring up the big guns. I instrumented it and found for skill 2 with a lot of action around 10K traces are requested per server frame, with 1K long traces (the ones that wreck you). That's if the server is running at 72 Hz, the slower you're running the worse it gets (per frame).
So I added two new cvars: max_longtraces which lets you choose the number of long traces. 0 is the fast mode like in >>8828505, 128 (default) lets about 1/8 of all the traces through in the worst case (and more usually), which seems to be mostly OK (monsters can react slower, but they WILL react). Setting it to a very large value such as 10000 disables this completely and you get the vanilla behavior.
And host_minfps, which avoids getting you into a situation where you're spending 99% of the time trying to keep up. The default is 30, which means if you're getting 20fps the game will run at "timescale 0.666", the game speed will slow down but the framerate won't crater. (fun fact: this slow down won't show up in demo playback)
https://files.catbox.moe/0c6j96.7z
I also put them in vkQuake: https://files.catbox.moe/o2y3i4.7z (do not set sys_ticrate to more than 1/host_minfps ! defaults should be OK)
I can't find the game source code for Quoth so this is as far as my "ideas" go I guess.

>>8834879
>>8834898
Very weird. There is a 33% chance for a Ring of Shadows to be replaced with timed jump boots, but I don't remember there being a ring on that map. Then again, I haven't played it a while.
I should probably make it so the timed boots don't reset your regular boot charges upon depletion.
>>8835042
>What I meant is, once you enter this area where the Grapple is located, the JetBoots will only allow for one jump from now on
One set of jump boots should only allow for one extra jump. Do you mean you're not getting a double jump at all?
>>8835608
>BTW didn't the PlasmaRail supposed to penetrate multiple enemies? I swear it fails to do so for me if yes
That didn't make it into the initial release, but I'm pretty sure the current progs on the mega do it. If you see a smoke sprite at the end of the rail rather than a blue splash sprite then you're on the initial release.

>>8835617
I'll check it out later. I've noticed that with the previous build enemies sometimes detect you through either walls or doors, so I'll see if the new one does the same.
>I can't find the game source code for Quoth
it hasn't been made available. this is the best we have: https://files.catbox.moe/0f1x0h.zip
it should be enough to confirm that Quoth doesn't really complicate vanilla things (unlike e.g. Copper that pre-computes the fiend's jump trajectory), the checks are usually run on alerts, fire and refire. I can grab the multispawn code and make minimal progs to do a more clean experiment with no Quoth involved. again though, probably not in 12 hours at least.

Does anyone know why when I load /pol/.wad the level auto completes after 6 seconds? Am using zdl launcher with no other wads active and only PB and a hud as mods.

>>8835057
>how do I get the ScubaGear legitimagely
it's possible to get with no boots at all, but if you found a second pair you can swing around indefinitely abusing the 1-second-long grapples. as for the swimsuit, it's a nod to Umihara Kawase, same as the backpacks. and yeah the textures are from the cancelled 40k game.
>>8835593
>Is the only way to get YellowArmor from this secret area only via grenade/rocket-jump?
you can destroy the vent grate with a grenade from either underneath (ride the elevator roof up) or from a gap above. but rj also works.

>>8835804
Eh, the pistol recharges slow enough that you can usually find more ammo in the time it takes to recharge / more time-efficient to reload a save if you've wasted ammo.
Infinite lizard guys spawning while you figure out how to disable the forcefield towards the end of ISV-Kran is just kind of shitty. It's cool on paper and puts pressure on you but up until then all the enemies only spawn in under a capped number for a sort of arena challenge.

The regular jump boots should only give double jump, not infinite jumps.

This reminds me I never went back to finish it. There is a lot there I like but it didn't grip me for some reason.

>>8836998
Maybe it's more ergonomic for shamblers.

>>8835312
obviously you did because you replied atleast two times to find out what that is
>>8836883
I guess the 300 mins too, and not a wad but Violent Rumble is pretty cool

>>8835706
What kind of style does the map have?
What kind of audioscape does it have?
What emotion or reaction do you want the player to have to the boss?
What is the atmosphere of the map/ boss?
Answer these questions, and maybe I can help you

>>8836027
I found the teleport area sooner than the YA itself while hunting for the leftover secrets - no idea if this vent is what you meant, as it certainly looks breakable but somehow isn't

>>8836718
what?

>>8836027
>it's possible to get with no boots at all, but if you found a second pair you can swing around indefinitely abusing the 1-second-long grapples

. . .oh boy, how mind-bogglingly crazy it sounds, but I got no idea where to look for those. . .

>>8837083
>I got no idea where to look for those
judging by >>8835125 you must have found at least 2/4 secret encounters, they're all similar in principle

Icarus reviews RTX Doom

>knowing how to get all secrets legit here now, I can finally move onto traversing an another level
However none will probably be as neat as those awesome ones from this cool lad were but we'll see once we get there, I like to be pleasantly suprized as expected - no idea if solo-ing a Shambler with just an Axe should count as pleasure tho

>>8837096
No idea if I borked something, but should ringing the bells at Cathedral spawn anything extra at the rooftop besides the backpack? Killed all and missed only 2 secrets as seen @ >>8835125

>secret encounters
but does the "poo in da loo" segment also count as one of those?

>>8837136
Catpcha definetely needs rape correction for making me lose my pic once again

>>8835268
Yeah, I should have mentioned that I found the introduction of the double fight pretty cool

>is that- a wall of blood back there? Oh, now there's probably another bunch of Cacos coming up
>ohshitohfuckohfuckfuckfuck

>>8835383
>Ring in toilet
Does this seem to be a refferce to something?

If I gonna steal a whole map segment with minimal changes, the smarter thing would be to swap textures for those I intend to use first before copying a Q2 map into Q1 by using Trenchbroom, am I correct here or wrong again?

>>8837192
It can avoid some texture alignment issues on weird geometry, in my experience.

>>8837136
the bells don't do anything actually, but the cathedral roof backpack is supposed to spawn a pair of boots, a bunch of supplies, and a gang of overlords. what I assumed had happened with mutators is that it had spawned the mega-boots instead, and when those ran out, you were left with no jumps at all. and yes, the shitposter island counts as a secret encounter
>>8837181
nothing specific
>>8837192
you can use the same textures, just export as 24-bit tgas and make a temp wad to reference them. it shouldn't matter if you swap textures before or after though I think.

>>8837204
I don't wanna bloat /VR/ even more just for 1 map of questionable quality - does the .pak include textures from both official mission-packs besides the '"borrowed'" entities data?

>>8837139
Made a semi-cosy gif, no idea if its good enough for an OP image though - but I have to admit that NecroBestialAnalButtSex is just too good of a subtitle to let it go pass unused for sure

>>8837215
Q1 maps store textures in the map file itself, the only "standalone" textures in the VR pak are the overrides for the startmap.
compared to including both mp3+ogg for compatibility, whatever bloat you could cause with textures is likely insignificant.

>Rune status: N_GGU_
I have to admit that DoomedRumble is starting to make me feel like home (Quake 2 that is), don't know yet what to make of the delayed Plasma-Shaft firing sequence tho - is it also buffed in some way?

>>8837240
>is it also buffed in some way?
It consumes 20(?) plasma and basically functions like Doom's BFG, albeit traced from the projectile rather than the player.
So yes, extremely buffed.

>>8837234
I want to do something that utilizes both the DoE AztecTemple/Greco-Roman themes partially and the snow/ice textures from Juggernaut Q2 '''addon'" - its one thing it could be usefull for after all those years of being mocked. . .

>>8837242
No idea how I missed that happening, kinda explains how almost everything died instantly :^|

Was making interactive environment stuff in Build difficult to do?

It seems like every addon pak or user-map has 90% less interactivity than your standard base Build game.

>>8837042
>What kind of style does the map have?
Underground dungeon and cave
>What kind of audioscape does it have?
Elaborate please, idk what this means lol
>What emotion or reaction do you want the player to have to the boss?
A fuck-off huge boss spawned, kill it before it kills you
>What is the atmosphere of the map/ boss?
Dark dungeon/cave

Alright my niggurs, new Violent Rumble shit up on the Mega:
https://mega.nz/folder/LVlWVK5D#H5iqeD61bSItMIVeGqymTQ
New progs.dat, quake.rc, models in progs folder (sort by date), and HUD stuff in GFX.
Notable stuff that probably needs testing:
>NEW MODIFIER Incestuous Rumble (impulse 36, disables infighting behavior)
>laser rifle buff + new secondary fire (I feel like it's OP now but idk)
>gold jump boots should return any regular jump boot charges when it runs out
>void triggers now remove corpses and gibs in a much less janky and laggy way, but it hasn't been thoroughly tested
>HUD improvements with different setups you can scroll through (default H)
>adjustments to monster randomization (Commandos are in and they rape)

I haven't updated the FGDs yet, but the monster presets used in the randomizer (+ some currently unused ones) can be placed in maps for convenience. I'll try to get that out later.
Yell at me if anything is broken.

>>8837794
iirc the pak'd progs take precedence over a separate file, so you might want to provide a pak for non-modders.

>>8837794
No proper rebalancing for the secret map?

>>8837794
Cool beans VRanon ;3

I finally understand what you mean now - that lass is visibly incomplete, and its not even the Strogg's recriutment process to blame for it

>>8837828
Once you see the promo screenshots compared to the final product, you see how the mesh is completely fucked, plus the fact that the N64 and PS1 models has it fixed and even smoothened.
Q2 is in dire need of a new monster mesh as Q1 post Md5, which helped A LOT in the animation department and let if free of its animation.c behavior files.

>>8837263
This is exactly the sort of stuff that happens when you buid your keep in a toxic marsh, dear unseen castle-makers of pure evil alingment. . .

>>8830450
Maybe worth mentioning the latest VR updates are currently found on mega rather than nexusmods/moddb?

>>8837842
This reminds me to play through PSX2 Q2, I want to see the level changes and I liked some of what I saw regarding changed models.
>Q2 is in dire need of a new monster mesh as Q1 post Md5, which helped A LOT in the animation department and let if free of its animation.c behavior files.
Might be cool seeing some model updates to Q2 like they did for KexQ1, even though I could just be getting my hopes up.

>>8837846
I can only hope to imagine how much PITA is intentionally making such slanted architecture just for the mood

>>8837842
I really like all these Strogg designs. I just wish they were faster and more of a threat.

>>8837867
this isn't Build you know, you can just select an entire building and rotate it

>>8837815
A pak with just the progs.dat in it should be fine, right? I'll drop one in the release candidate folder in a bit.
>>8837826
Haven't gotten to it yet. I think mostly I need to work on pathing so monsters (especially Romero) don't get stuck and become easy kills.
There's a trigger from Scourge of Armagon that I've got in code now that can be used to move monsters around objects, but I haven't tested it much. Destructible columns and whatnot would help too, probably.

>>8837878
Agreed.
