>>9230642
I meant the whole thing as a pak file or whatever

>>9230738
Mod?

>>9230767
It's Babel (from the news post), I'm the dev just screwing around with stuff. Was re-performance testing the gore cleanup and this was a good way to do it quickly.

health bonus loli when...

that fuckin zelda mod for quake 2 doesnt even work right i get to the portal in the temple and nothing happens. what the heck.

>>9230886
when we get the armor bonus shota

>>9230714
>Radsuit-chan has Special 16 written on her bucket
It's the small things

>>9230890
I'd like to see that too.

any wads that turn other games into half-life? build engine half-life in particular sounds cool.

>>9230927

>any wads that turn other games into half-life?
What do you mean exactly?

>>9225772
>I mean they eventually bring tanks
Black Mesa is a military facility and has full on mechanized infantry bays with tanks inside the facility. So I would think that a lot of the stuff was already there, just unboxed and put to use.

The auto-firing minigun turrets etc, there are massive crates of them and other sorts of hardware lying around.

The fighter jets probably came from elsewhere though.

>>9230953
he means total conversions of other games in the Half-Life theme
think WolfenDoom but HalfDuke instead

>>9230714
>>9230891
Kurashiki always puts the attention into stuff while also making it fucking adorable.

I hope she's doing better.

A quick thought on slaughtermaps. I have played most well-known ones, and while I don't exactly resent the idea of shooting huge hordes in a Serious Sam fashion (the only reason the original WADs didn't do it was because it would fry PCs from the 90s, you even see flashes of Sandy attempting proto slaughter gameplay in Doom 2 such as in Suburbs), there was always something that felt off about them and I never could quite figure out of why. After years I have pinned it down: Lack of atmosphere. "Traditional" Doom levels have the level itself be part of the package as it were, a place to explore, to bask in its ambience. Yes, abstract at times, but that's up to the mapper. Slaughtermaps often feel like a Quake 3 map or something, it's just an arena meant to enable gameplay. Slaughtermap authors try hard to make beautiful ceilings and pillars and lavish custom textures but there's almost never a "sense of place" to these maps, they feel "gamey", like a shooting gallery, a challenge course, place to test your skills. Not like a dungeon, a sewer processing station, a rocket launch facility. Sorry for the autism

>>9230960
Given that Half-Life itself took ventilation shafts climbing part if the gameplay straight from Duke - it is itself can be called Half-Duke

>>9230989
Sunlust's slaughter maps did a pretty good job at this, especially in MAP30. The combination of the name, the slow-paced intro, and of course, the geometry and layout really make it feel like you're inside the heart of an incomprehensibly huge machine.

>>9230989
> arena meant to enable gameplay
The same can be applied to Dead Simple, still clearly remember the childish disappointment when getting to DS after the set of superb epic levels, and only thinking - WTF is this, where is the actual level?

>>9231002
Completely forgot to mention the music. Can't go wrong with Aubrey Hodges.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=GV5UnANIj3c

How did they get the same map design while other ports couldn't?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGIye6Bkxvw

>>9231012
True, but Doom 2 in general is full of gimmick levels. On the whole it fits the package.

>>9231012
nah it was kino

>>9231037
meaningless word

>>9230728
I used to really want to play DOOM 64 but after seeing the shotguns don't have reload animation my hype was significantly reduced. Also some of the monster redesigns are imo kinda whackadoodle. Great music tho.

>>9231018
It's not the same map design as the PC, it's just a different set of simplifications that happens to be closer to the originals, since it's pretty much the only console Doom release of the era not based on the Jaguar port of the Doom engine.
id themselves simplified the levels for the Jaguar version, and then every port that was based on that used those altered levels, probably for convenience just as much as performance.

Is Heretic support in dsda-doom still WIP?

>>9231056
> shotguns don't have reload animation
Reload animations are restored in Retribution version of D64 btw

>u starin at me, bruv?

>>9231092
>reload animations are restored in Retribution version of D64
Hey, thanks for the tip! I went to moddb and looked at the preview videos. At least the super shotgun has a proper reload animation. The regular shotty seems to miss the hand pump tho'.

But still, thanks for the tip, I will remember it in case Doom 64 cravings start again.

>>9230989
I don't like the health balance. Doom is supposed to have you wearing combat armor, blue armor is supposed to be a secret, as are soulspheres and megaspheres, and medkits and stimpaks are supposed to be your health. Slaughtershit just gives you a megasphere before every fight

Could it be bros?
Could someone complete 100% TNT map 28 on UV plus in the Unity port and btfo Decino?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_-e2LO_G2Q&list=PLuJF5YXi9cA_zSSoigi9Ey-CpqQqdlPTf

>>9231069
Iirc it's good enough for demo recording and playback. Did you find an issue? Maybe report at GitHub?
>>9231014
Sunlust and anything with just ribbiks always have amazing music with a common atmosphere.

>>9231123
On non unity, at least, it's been done by kineticbeverage

>>9231123
did decino say it was impossible?

>>9231136
not with fast monsters

>>9231123
>>9231138
His video highlighted challenges "thought to be impossible", he just asked around and Doomworld told him they were impossible. Many of them are likely to one day be done

>>9231143
lol
lmao even

>>9231138
It's not like he's Zero-Master so why people put that much stock into just his opinions is fucking beyond me.

>>9231167
Popular and big mouthed.
Possibly grooms people on a discord or something, who knows, seems like a lot of cults of personality do that nowadays.

I discovered /x/ by accident and I spent one week lurking nonstop and collecting schizo memes then I had this vivid dream of a scary as fuck schizo-/x/ themed wad and a lot of stuff like enemies and decorations was A.I. generated.
Hadn't dreamed about Doom since Doom 3 was new and gave me nightmares.
Is there some wad like that already?

Screenshot Saturday?

This is just what I'm playing atm.

>>9231173
I thought that was more like the Smash community doing that shit.

>>9231174
>enemies and decorations was A.I. generated
>Is there some wad like that already?
There was an anon here posting experimental AI-generated monster sprites a while ago, and I assembled them into this horror, but that's about it.

>>9231125
The only somewhat big issue I have with it is lack of fullscreen HUD. Was hoping it'd be fixed sooner or later, but judging from changelog Heretic code wasn't touched since long ago.

>>9231123
why does this gameplay look so weird? Is this being played on an actual touchscreen?

>>9231191
because they forgot to add widescreen assets for plutonia and tnt in the unity port.

>>9231180
You haven't lurked on places you shouldn't.
I wish I had your innocence still.

>>9231202
Fair point, I stopped using Discord when I realized all of the Doom community servers I was on were all just circlejerk cliques.

>>9231198
>anon lives rent free in these threads

Serious Business Saturday will be happening today in about 2 hours. We'll be playing through a set of levels called Persepolis Pack. If you want to download it early then grab it here (make sure you download the vanilla TSE version, NOT the revolutions version):
>https://rakanishu-sed.itch.io/persepolis-pack

>>9231210
any negative criticism of anything brings a shitstorm. any mention of bethesda's practices as a distributor instantly activates the flies on the wall who never post to flood stupid shit like crazy despite the room being silent for 1 hour before then.
all official servers of discord are artificial as fuck.

>>9231187
changelog for the upcoming 0.25 release does indeed mention a new fullscreen hud, available for ragen iwad too

https://github.com/kraflab/dsda-doom/blob/master/patch_notes/v0.25.md#hud

>>9231184
A custom HDest fork that focuses on horror based change and less about system intricacy and realism would be sweet to play with the PSX Doom soundtrack; would make the game feel like you're playing Silent Hill or the underground sections in Stalker.

>>9231178
Added a reference to my Hideous Destructor resprite that I don't expect anyone I play with to get, but you guys might.

>>9231294
that's a cool looking chainsaw.

>>9231280
It plays pretty well with Consolation Prize as is. 5to2 was also fun but the imp spawns get evil.

>>9231231
Walled gardens where only the most sycophantic thrive.

I grew sick of it because every server is going down that path from the moment of it's creation.

I really like the peppergrinder laser machinegun now. The auto focus mode isn't really an issue to use despite the slower firerate if you know how to dodge balefire and infact the slower firerate helps to conserve ammo, almost better than the vulc and vera except weight and accuracy funnily enough, the muzzleclimb is a bit weird considering it's not shooting a projectile per-se.
The lasers should phase through the new sector windows though.

IT'S THAT TIME OF THE WEEK AGAIN, SCREENSHOT SATURDAY. WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING ON? MAPS, MODS, SPRITES? NOW'S A GOOD TIME TO POST THAT SHIT.

>>9230738
Glad you made a comeback with fresh update babel anon! Itch.io link was added to OP rentry sheet, look it up at the mods section at very bottom. Somewhat formal little issue: should I change your nickname to something else or leave it as it is?

>>9231178
>>9231370

>>9231227
This goes in the root directory?

>>9231423
Yep, just drop the .gro file into your second encounter's root directory. Don't extract its contents or anything.

I've been playing DoomRl Arsenal after many years of versions I hadn't seen, the stuff is really cool. Armors and boots with special abilities, assemblies on special weapons, etc.

Has anyone else had a problem with info sometimes getting wiped from the ingame PDA?

>>9231434
In my experience it usually retains that info, even if I play Doom 2 then Doom 1 or TNT etc. Only time it was reset for me was when I copied my Doom shit over onto a new computer. The saved data is probably saved somewhere in a Windows user's specific folders like in My Documents, AppData, etc. I'm just guessing though.

>>9229143
>which was your first doom version not including source ports?
Doom95 most likely. I remember using the level selector to jump into Military Base and trying to do that on Nightmare.

The first time I got exposed to DOOM was at a friend's house in the late-ish 1990s, but I don't remember what version his was. Likely was the shareware version.

Aaahhh Realms Deep come quick already, I need my info on Ion Fury : Aftershock.

>>9231404
>https://rentry.org/8ca3061522e0
Ah, put it as whatever. Babel Guy is probably best since that's what I use here. I genuinely don't care too much though, it's just a name.

>>9231227
Serious Business Saturday is on! Get your rear in gear and grab some bullets, we'll be taking a trip back to Persepolis with this custom map:

thoughts on the DNF 2001 remake of this level?

>>9230714
Why are the Voxel Doom zombiemen not raising their weapon up to shoulder-height for their firing frame? Is it a limitation of how voxels are implemented, or is the creator planning to add those in the future?

>>9231560
The voxels were made for vanilla doom, where zombies and players fire from the hip. They'd have to have those frames changed for HD.

>>9231560
I don't know what gameplay mod you've been playing, but you've been doing it for so long that you forgot what the original sprites look like.

>>9231563
>>9231565
Ah, you're right. I'm not the most observant when I'm playing Vanilla. Thanks

>>9231560
Isn't the rising fire animation from HD?

>>9231568
It is, I just forgot. Like I said I guess my brain doesn't pick up the details of the sprites when playing vanilla since things go by so fast

this game is a master class of voice acting

>>9231508
Be well and kicking anon.

I've updated rentry (made it worse) once again for readability. Would be grand if someone supplied me with fun description for 94 protons prior its release.

The exit portal crashed my game

>>9231434
>Has anyone else had a problem with info sometimes getting wiped from the ingame PDA?
Saving and loading savegames with different unlock data seems to do it.

>>9231294
Do you keep an updated DL link to the current version of your resprite anywhere? I like playing with it but the version linked in your videos seems a little behind if some of your screenshots here are any indication.

>>9231512
Hope you guys had some fun. Sorry about the second map breaking but hey we got rewarded with that amazing third map. Maybe next week we'll replay the first encounter, unless I can find a new map pack to play.

>>9231585
>description for 94 protons
Doomguy lost all his fucking protons

>>9231653
I was going to update it when I posted a new video, but since I'm dragging my feet on that I might as well do it now, especially since I finished the new ZM cookoffs and shield cores have hit a release version of HD.

>>9231512
fun stuff

>>9231653
>>9231681
The Dropbox link should auto-update, but here's a catbox link in case it doesn't, or if you don't want to go back to one of my videos to get it.
https://files.catbox.moe/5nrh82.pk3
Peppergrinder support is still a WIP because I'm lazy, so expect some default doomguy hands on some of those weapons.

currently cutting through the first momento mori via Compendium and zandronum. i gotta say, im having a great time

>>9231706
damn you playing in 1280x960???

>>9231726
Very cool, thanks mate.

Might as well be 'till something better comes up, added.

>>9231748
>That second line
Jokes at chobplock's expense are the eternal joys in life.

What would you anons say are some WADs that are mislabeled in terms of difficulty? Typically authors vastly underrate how difficult their maps are, as they have built them bit by bit and tested them hundreds of times. I respect valkiriforce's talent, but he released Anomaly Report and claimed it was "not difficult" and "in line with Doom 2" in, which is utter crap - It's not the hardest WAD ever but it's much harder than D2, with many maps even descending into slaughter sensibilities. Nasty traps at times, too.

>>9231793
quite a few WADs considered to be quite difficult (e.g. Sunlust) are (intentionally) only like that on UV

>>9231793
>that are mislabeled in terms of difficulty?
Mine, I usually sneak an unlisted secret in for people who are struggling, so you can just afk in the start room for like five mins and breeze through the map.

Only a few people ever found them.

>>9231816
Sunlust's reputation is deserved but only after map 21 or so when the monster count jumps above 1000. The early maps have monster counts around one to two hundred and don't even hold a candle to ribbiks' slaughterfest 2012 submissions or danne's earlier maps, or any other "normal" slaughter map
An average player can complete a sunlust map saveless with enough practice or trial and error long before they'd come close to beating a 3000 monster slaughter map saveless

>>9231842
>but only after map 21 or so when the monster count jumps above 1000
There's like 3 maps in the entire set with quad digit monster counts. MAP23 doesn't even break 100.
Sunlust does have slaughter maps, but it is absolutely not a slaughter set, and I think that's applicable to the topic of mislabeling of difficulty.

>>9231836
I found an unmarked secret with a BFG in it next to an archvile spawn on an otherwise relatively easygoing map.
Was that you?

>>9231891
I don't think so, I'd have probably put a plasma rifle with limited ammo in that situation.

Multiple ideas has been suggested. One cool idea was to use an existing /vr/ map as a base and slaughterifying it, is anyone interested in this, and do they have further suggestions for a suitable candidate? Someone else suggested another approach, mind that we could have two secret slaughter maps if we wanted to.

Finally passed through the city levels of Doom 2 and before I knew I am already at Living's end. Map 17 onwards levels have that classic Doom 1 vibes (except The Chasm). The fuck happened between Map 12-17? Such a chore getting through those.

>>9231894
It was just a single shot BFG though. Maybe the mapper went a bit overkill with that then, though the situation would probably have warranted it somewhat (chaingunner and revenant corpses immediatly next to the vile spawn).

>>9231728
no longer having a good time, the next map is kicking my balls

What are some "oh yeah, that happened" WADs?

>>9231936

>>9231936

how do you change ammo types in duke nukem 64 while playing it with rednukem ? and i also played lifes a beach for the first time. i'm not sure if it sucks or it just took me a while to find the first levels exit

>>9231957
Try pressing the key for the weapon again? Alternatively, try checking the control options or text files provided.

>>9231560
Shouldered versions of the voxel models would be pretty cool desu

>>9231936
That one Margaret Thatcher WAD

It wasn't even properly playtested, the Icon of Sin fight at the end had monsters getting stuck inside each other. Not to say how fucking boring the gameplay was. Truly a shame, it could have been a good meme. Instead it was just an "oh, yeah..."

>>9231980
>journos get ecstatic over that halfbaked sausage roll when there's handfuls of projects on both DW and DB which are more ambitious and better executed

>>9231993
For some reason I was optimistic that it might at least be fun. But as soon as I loaded it up and started playing, the realization started setting in that I was playing someone's first WAD and that it wasn't very good

>>9231993
I remember hearing that the guy knew some people and that's why the media went nuts over it

>>9231993
Media coverage of anything Doom related will always be worthless.

>>9231980
Thatcher's Techbase, fuck me it was awful.

I remember seeing people thinking it was a punch in the face to, IDK, somebody, for pol.wad and moonman doom for existing, and that more like it needed to exist.

>>9232013
>>9232016
Reminds me of how that idiotic Mr Friendly mod got a ton of media praise out of nowhere then vanished just as quickly.

maybe the real brutal doom was the friends we made along the way

>>9231980

I'm reminded of that one abortion doom wad that's just one level where you shoot a jpeg of a fetus to win, and yet it got journos talking about it. It's not rootpain, although that wad would also fit under as something that happened.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_h2-TwXBKgo

>>9232083
reading into it further, apparently this specific wad was meant to be commentary on, bizarrely enough, abortion in Argentina, unlike rootpain.wad which was just something made as a troll

Blazing Star had a way better fetus boss fight.

is it me or is Duke Nukem 64 through red nukem the superior way to play the "main campaign" of Duke 3D.

1. Can save the babes
2. Can't shrink the mini battle lords
3. Grenade launcher

what do you guys think??

>>9232184
I do like being able to save the babes.

Man I am replaying Memento Mori and good lord does it ever not hold up well.
>oh hey here have only the fucking shotgun for like 5 levels because I'm just not gonna give you any ammo
>oh you like barons of hell? Shotgun one to death please
Like nah son, jesus. It's not even hard this is just some kind of abstract torture.

>>9232184
I prefer the Devastator and Freezethrower over any of the 64 weapons, but saving the babes and seeing that tallied on the intermission screen is nice. Some of the censor jobs are also downright hilarious.

>>9232163
Is this some AI generated shit?

>>9232163
If you colored this alternating pink and green it would look like Cruelty Squad

>>9232190
similiar issue to what i was having. just wait till you get past level 5. shit gets waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay worse.

>>9232184
You're not supposed to be able to shrink the mini battlelords in the OG. Autoaim prevents it unless you're at point blank range, which will absolutely shred your HP so it's pretty fair.
The game balance breaks in a few ways like this if you turn autoaim off in eDuke, think of it like jumping in gzDoom. Another example is how the pistol loses its function as a long change chip damage weapon.

>>9232190
I agree. I think Final Doom is notable for that because it really has aged a lot better. Plutonia is great, obviously, but TNT, while flawed, also has some pretty good maps in it.

I think Memento Mori 2 is supposed to be a lot better than the first one, but I honestly can't even remember if that's true.

>>9232205
i forgot about that lol. thats true if auto aim is on. you can't shrink them you have to aim at their feet. and does make fights pretty trivial.

>>9232194
the freeze thrower and the devastator are pretty great. especially if youve been saving the devastator for a boss fight

>>9232189

Fuck the doom community and fuck all Kurashiki’s simpos
I used to have fun playing doom and then she comes along and shows her better she is at doom and now it even shows because knows whatever the fuck “special 16” is well she fucking killed it, she fucking killed all interest I had in doom and the other games like quake. Fucking bitch fucking cunt she really fucking pisses me off and another thing she never helped with on how to draw cacodemons so fuck her, fuck her fucking dirty ass. I hope she is happy she killed doom for me because I used to have fun playing doom the way I like in a sandbox-esque way and she comes along with her fucking fancy strategy shit so fuck her. Well I’m gonna keep drawing which is the only thing to do so I can beat her at drawing instead. So FUCK HER FUCK YOU KURASHIKI YOU FUCKING BITCH. Never again will I play doom and quake and even my favorite clone Hexen thanks to her. This will be my last post here since I cannot stand you fuckers dicksucking Kurashiki. The fucking mean bitch. I hope you’re all happy.

Ultimate Torment & Torture

can someone walk me through how to increase the range on the melee weapon replacement for my custom mod?
I edited the damage, which is the first value but Idk what to do to increase its range.
the tooltip isnt really helping it, I didnt touch any other value on those CustomPunch lines apart from the damage value.
>KAS1 C 1 A_CustomPunch(120, 1, 0, "KatanaHit", 85)
I suspect the value for range is float range but where do I put it in the line of code?
pls help
after I have done this I think my work on my custom mod is complete
this is the last thing its missing

>>9232448
Function parameters are listed on the tooltip in the order you place them. In this case 85 would be your range.

>>9232448
if you move your cursor with the arrow keys it should highlight which variable you're at, odd that you've bumped it up to 85, did that not work? What I usually do when I'm fucking around with stuff new to me is test it with extreme numbers, so give it a range of like 300 and see what happens.

I also recommend bookmarking the Zdoom wiki.

spent a couple of hours last night building out the house I grew up in Hammer to go put in HL2VR when it comes out, except I'm taking it one step further and making it the version of it that existed in various dreams I've had of it in the years since I moved, where my mind has added all sorts of odd additions and rooms that never existed. Might port it into Alyx later too if I feel like it. I've been playing a lot of that lately since it's the first real VR game I've played.

does anybody in here know of the Half-Life mod that is the port for pc Half-Life of the expansion that was console exclusive?
I dont fucking remember the name anymore I know I found it once on ModDB but I forgot to bookmark the page and now I cant find it anymore.
you played as the female colleague of Gordon Freeman.
thanks.

>>9232564
The campaign/expansion is called Decay, and it's co-op focused, you can play it single player, but expect to switch between the two characters often.

>>9232568
>expect to switch between the two characters often.
Also expect to get fucked by anything that requires your co-op partner to defend you while you do something, because the AI sucks.

anybody wanna test my customized mod and give me some feedbacks?

>war pigs
>war rooster

>>9232575
You'd get better results posting the link to the mod and asking for feedback. Worked for me years ago.

>>9232495
Because people from so called "relevant" countries are too politically impotent and jerk off to H-doom gifs.

>>9232571
The only genuine problem I had with the AI was at the end of Resonance. Conserving magnum revolver ammo on one character as you travel through the map and using her as the defender at the end makes it manageable.

>>9232495
well, when you see too much shit about trump or bush, something about bolsonaro, putin and brexit is novel in comparison just because it's not american
but grezzo duo has its charm because of how absurd it is
like those edgy newgrounds flash animations from mexican or brazilian animators, like hulalaoo or golfinho yurii
or for portugal, you had vitominas
the edgy humor combined with poorly drawn characters and shitty microphone recordings
something like poop fartyguns probably falls under this too
i hope the pain elemental calling the player a faggot is still a thing there

>>9232184
>what do you guys think??
Does it do anything else to the mini battlelords, or just make them unshrinkable? They’re a great example of the wrong type of hitscanner for these shooters.

>>9232638
It makes them unshrinkable.

>>9230714
I wanna fug candlechan.

do you think this post from 2009 inspired the "badass angry unkillable guy" direction of doom 2016 and eternal

>>9232670
maybe not really but i still think of that one death battle video and just in general how doom fans acted over master chief
like what is the mario of fps?
if you bring up an actual game, doom is the daddy of all
but as for a character? it's either master chief, gordon freeman or duke nukem, while doomguy was a nameless blank slate with little background carried by memes or fan content in general
seeing the comparisons to chief's armor from the praetor suit may be another factor
besides that copypasta, there's also the comics by faraz parsa
either way, the slayer is both meme based and memeable to fans, but a lot of things associated with doom come from somewhere
but sometimes, it seems like people want doomguy to be like guts from berserk, which makes me wonder what they want doomguy to be anymore

>>9232425
It only recently occurred to me what that switch was originally meant to be .The Doom2 intermission screen after map 06 states that earth's population is being held hostage and that you need to hit the "Controlling switch" to free them. Surely enough, the exit for map 11 is the only place this particular texture is used and the next intermission screen immediately after says the population is now free. I never really noticed the narrative consistency there before since environmental details in game never seemed especially consistent with the "plot".
The literal appearance of the texture are probably just meant to communicate that it's very important. You can interpret its evil/meat/tech look in particular as being an instance of the "starport's technology being subverted by their presence" and more generally another case of doom's mixed horror/sci-fi aesthetic. The idea that reality can be altered simply by demons and hell magic being there is also something of a narrative justification for why many of dooms levels are so abstract and nonsensical. That's my interpretation, at least.

how much of a cunt am i for using Chasecam to see around corners/throw dynamite around corners in Blood? Does it make it better that I'm playing on Extra Crispy?

>>9232691
Unorthodox, but I'm pretty certain that was a thing you could do even in the original DOS release, because I recall a chasecam in Douk 3D.
Didn't someone make a nice drawn version of pic related? I swear I've seen it.

>glowing triangle-eyeball chan
>constantly interact with her, but she never does anything

>>9232670
No, it’s merely indicative of the desire of a lot of fans to have him be “as awesome” as Master Chief, Kratos, and Dante.
>>9232691
You can do that in Dosbox and as early as Duke. Is this your first time playing Blood?

>Want to make another map for 94 protons, but weather changed from "too hot to map" to "too cold to map" in an instant.

Finished TNT and Plutonia. Both had a couple maps that were annoying, but were otherwise fun enough. I did find the cages of chaingunners and sniper chaingunners around every corner of Plutonia pretty annoying. Either gonna start Sigil or one of those "sequels" to TNT maybe.

Shout out to Final Doomer weapons. Every set of weapons is pretty damn nice and doesn't destroy balance too much, at least to me. i used vanilla weapons until I got to TNT to change it up. Then went with the TNTguy weapons for TNT. PlutGuy for Plutonia. Might go with HellboundGuy for the next wad I tackle. That throwable explosive is pretty tight.

>>9232961
Do Scythe relatively early. It's great as babby's first pwad due to how it starts off easy and keeps getting harder, but it can be underwhelming if you play it immediately after Valiant, for example. I especially like how well-balanced the first episode is with -fast monsters; it's easy on UV but with -fast it becomes a challenge wad that serves as a series of mini-exercises that train you in various things, like how to dodge a group of -fast imps while chainsawing them, or how to punch out turbo pinkies.

>>9231370
A tad too late for screenshot saturday, but...
Well - i'm slowly wrapping up this chungus of a boom format map i've had on a backburner for 3 years.

It's a bloated 800+ demons mess that might take up to two hours to finish, but i don't want to change it too much - even with it's apparent flaws.
I just want to get this over with.

>>9233041
whoaaa

You could split several parts of a big map into several different maps, depending on their flow.

>>9232481
They didn't whine, they send threatening legalese letters saying the game is violating the Geneva convention and they'll use all their power to make them change it if they refuse.

It's not a coincidence they never go for big lawsuit-happy companies like Valve, and id was pretty small at the time.

>>9231936
Compared to 2048, the minutes projects, HFFM and AM, this WAD kind of just... exists.

>>9232957
What kind of map did you have in mind? Once the deadline is up I plan to assemble the current submissions into a Beta build, but there'll be some work left for me to do anyway.
If you've got a map in the works but feel it isn't quite ready by the 12th, I could let it slip in a couple days past that. Though I guess your other option would be to retool the map for Ad Mortem instead.

>>9233078
A pretty simple map I can probably make in a day or two, but I need to find time and focus.

>>9233067
I've actually found 512 Linedefs really fun. Probably in large part due to the focus on pistol starting so the monster amount doesn't get too slaughter-y, most of the maps I've played have been fun to play through.

But you're also comparing the wad to the "Big boys" of /vr/ community projects so it's kind of a very poor comparison point.

>>9233034
Maybe so. I've mostly played on HMP thus far so maybe that'd be a good bridge into UV.

It's your own experience, if you enjoy it then do it that way. I don't really get why people seek validation from the thread for playing a certain way. It's only reinforcing the faggots that try to force their own way of playing on everyone,.

>>9233034
This is bad advice, Scythe's last maps are harder than anything in Valiant by a mile. Someone who just finished Plutonia isn't ready to play Fire & Ice. Alien Vendetta, BTSX1 or even Rush are better picks for his skill level.

>>9233223
You can just skip them and come back to them later. It feels really good when you come back to Scythe map30 after a year or two of playing other wads and improving and finally beating it on UV. It's the feeling of crushing something that once was too powerful for you, an unforgettable experience.

>>9233223
Well I'm already quite a lot of maps into Scythe on UV. Some ambushes were tough and the levels that start with a bunch of spawns around you were also rough, but I beat them after only 2-3 tries so I feel like I'm doing okay. I suppose I'll find out how crazy it is going to be at the end and either give up or try a bunch of times until luck carries me the rest of the way. The early levels were pretty easy and short which I liked. I think I prefer wads with shorter levels in general.

"So how many rockets do you need for this fight?"
the answer is: yes

>>9232496
>They don't want people to think their symbol is a generic sign for medicine
Umm, so what its been for literally forever?

>>9232558
Weapon mod ?

>>9232407
>>9233316
I'd be very into that. Just in terms of visuals. I don't know of many wads that have that mix of creepy yet funny, where everything is genuinely alien-looking but still kind of resembles a humanoid culture/society. It's strange enough in just the right way that you don't know if you should feel scared, to chuckle, or both.

>>9233371
Good luck anon. You might want to switch to medium difficulty for episode three (map21), as the maps will just keep getting harder and harder. If you stick to UV, map27 will filter you, and if you make it past the filter through enough hours of grinding, you will get stuck on map30, which is what happened to me, but it felt great coming back and beating it way later.
>I think I prefer wads with shorter levels in general.
I think short levels beaten quickly gives the player more of a dopamine rush. It is quite addictive. There is also room for long, ponderous levels with gorgeous architecture. Download Base Ganymede and play that next. It's a Doom1 megawad so it's relatively easy; it relies on health starvation for difficulty so you gotta dodge those fireballs.

>>9231370
Pic related is the current state of the WAD I'm working on since last year.

Gaahh, still like over a week to Realms Deep 2022. I just want to know roughly when IF : Aftershock, SiN Reloaded and other FPS games will release. Please.. I just need info..

Eradicator came out the same year as DN3D and support all sorts of view fuckery. I dunno how effective the weaponry would be at shooting around corners, though.

>>9233394
I'll move to that once I get stuck in Scythe. I assume there are few Doom 1 custom wads? Are they made just to balance around Doom 1's weapons instead of 2's?

>>9233417
Looks like Doombuilder.

>>9233118
Update to this now. Tweak'd geometries etc.

>>9233389
Where did you get those 3D-prints from?

>>9233421
Yes, smaller enemy and weapon roster, but Base Ganymede's the only one I found worth my time tbdesu. It's not just a great Doom1 megawad, it's a great megawad overall - and it's all stock, no custom textures, just like Going Down

didn't expect maps 20+ to be so extreme. 26 was pretty difficult especially the cyberdemons.
currently on 29. I don't know if I was supposed to die on 28 but that was the only way I could make it to the end, now 29 is a bit of a challenge due to lack of ammo.

>>9233445
I have a hard time revisiting the base campaign with vanilla gameplay, but it's fun going through it with the expansions as well as just playing the expansions themselves.

ive been playing 2048 and im surprised by how much im liking it, ive only played ad mortem and liked that one too, but now im thinking about playing all of what /vr/ has made. (loved map 03, though it ended too soon and the music of map01 was a surprise)

> chaingunners around every corner of Plutonia
Picrelated. I am on map 16 now, on easy with Brutal Doom. Chaingunners over large halls already cause not this shit again reaction. A bit tired of it overall, will do a pause. Still the best of official Doom wads by far and a perfect match for BD.

Does anyone else have a copy of TNT wad where map 10 has one secret instead of five next to each other?

>Plutonia
>tfw Hunted
Very simple map but kinda genius, wonder if it was meant to answer a challenge to use the ending music in a level. Fit really well.
At the start I didn't know that Archviles couldn't raise each other so I really shit bricks

>>9233537
Dario said that during Plutonia crunch time he had actual nightmares that archvile is chasing him. So he has done Hunted to get the archies out of his nightmares.

Hey shotgun sprite anon from last thread, how is the state?
I invested a lot of money (i.e. electricity necessary to take pictures and bandwidth to upload them to the 4chins) to provide some resources and I want to see results goddammit! You're fired! You will be here tomorrow at 7am SHARP, you hear me?

>>9233703
Oh, they're coming along, alright. I was actually about to plain try to redraw the hammers from scratch using the photos for reference, but a smart guy called Potetobloke did the better thing and plain cut them out of the photos and then made them fit on the sprite.
I've retouched them further to match the gun's lighting and added a knurled/checkered surface on the spur.

You said it was a cheap Russian gun, so I assume it's a Baikal. Do I list you in the credits as BaikalAnon?

Also altering the opened breech sprite, making it a bit wider so a larger locking lug/bar can fit, to match the one on the first person view, widening the ejector/extractor to match.

>>9233735
Really nice. And coincidentally, it is actually a Greener lock.

>>9233739
I had that kind of lock on the Super Shotgun for 2048 Units Of /vr/ (and Ad Mortem), though the lug is a lot smaller.
That shotgun is a hammerless one with a pivoting lever around the triggerguard for unlocking it, along with a really old fashioned straight grip stock, because I think those are cool. I suppose I may later retouch the thing with some of the updated features for the Ad Mortem one.

Having a lot of fun working with these sprites right now, actually.

>>9233745
Huh, I admit I never really paid attention to what kind of lock that shotgun had.

>>9233745
On that note, I'm assuming the 2048 and Ad Mortem shotgun sprite was "fixed" so that the explosion sprite doesn't linger for an extra frame like the vanilla version does.

If so, is there a way to unfix it? The lingering frame is one of the most underrated things in Doom.

anyway, thanks. I'm around, not much into showing wip stuff though.

>>9233761
Explosion? Linger?

>>9233776
I think he's referring to the Super Shotgun's muzzle flash being incorrectly timed to the animations of the weapon itself, resulting in pic related.
Though, I don't know why anyone would want this, unless the second frame of the flash was changed to a cloud of gunsmoke or something.

>>9233776
>>9233804
I am referring to that. It makes it seem more powerful to me. Sorry just a thought.

Too close.

>>9233737
so green

>>9233835
Yeah, organizing the photo didn't quite work out.

>>9233804
Yeah, that's straight up just a bug, if they intended for the flash to linger they would have outright made a separate third frame for that, which doesn't overlay and cut off like that.
Gunsmoke is an interesting idea, but it seems like it would be difficult at best to convey with opaque pixels, minding also that they shouldn't obscure the player's view too much either.

>>9233824
You absolute madman took a plasma shot to the face and still killed the bastard like it was nothing with a handgun and a rockette. Utter insanity, although perhaps not as lunatic as beating one down to death with just your fists.

Cool textures and map design but
>HD sprites
>Pfhor sounds replaced

The fuck were they thinking when they put in the Pain Elemental in Doom 64 instead of Revenants or Arch-viles, it's got a great design but either of those would have been better for level design.

>>9234176
The Pain Elemental has far fewer animation frames than either of those monsters

>>9230714
I've been struck with a great idea for the next Doom /vr/ project.
>"Doom The Way Croteam Would Do It"
A boom-compatable set of maps with simple geometry, but lots of non-slaughtery fighting and tongue-in-cheek game situations.

>>9234215
So a slaughtermap themed project?

>>9234215
each map will have a 1 health pickup ambush

>>9234181
>>9234176
Buffed revenants could’ve been cool to see, but so are the buffed pain elementals with ideal lost soul changes.
Also, is the rocket launcher in 64 buffed slightly as well? Compared to classic, I’ve been much luckier in killing hell knights with two rockets and barons with five.

>>9234227
Nightdive says the damage rolls and hit collision is supposed to be just like vanilla Doom, but I don't think that's true. The rocket launcher feels slightly more powerful, and the BFG feels slightly less so.

>>9234227
The faster but weaker lost souls of Doom 64 is an interesting change of gameplay.

>>9234215
>lots of non-slaughtery fighting and tongue-in-cheek game situations.
But TFE and TSE are very slaughtery and full of trolling.

>>9234238
They have less health, but I wouldn't call them weaker, as they are faster and more aggressive, and when they die they actually cause splash damage.

>>9234252
Yes, I shouldn't have used "weaker" for "having less health".

>>9234215
this would only work if running were 100% forced off so you stayed stuck at walkspeed, and if you were required to play with fastmonsters enabled
that's how sam works more or less
balance around that

>>9234231
Nightdive say a lot of things, they're usually talking out of their asses.

>>9234215
>croteam
>non-slaughtery
huh?

>>9234231
I'm playing it through the EX port so it's interesting to know it feels the same through the Nightdive one, although I'm under the impression they're both spearheaded by Kaiser.

>>9233421
>I'll move to that once I get stuck in Scythe
It's worth mentioning - skipping around wads is NOT a habit you want to develop. It's only okay in this one situation since Scythe has a uniquely extreme difficulty curve. It is this slow ramping up that makes Scythe such a nice introduction imo

>>9233719
The visible hammers are VERY cool

How's this for a generator room?

Update for Ancient Relics, now with greenery and slightly more visually interesting hallways.
Also gonna give it a name change to "Ancient Relics Once Lost To Time"

yes

>>9234382

Reminds me of Blood and Ion Fury.

>>9233369
>scythe map 30 after a year or two of playing
haha yeah
if the yellow key skip counts

>>9234176
it was easier and it was probably not obvious until after plutonia (which probably came out too late in development for any notes to be taken) and especially post alien vendetta megawads how important stuff like revs and archviles are to ideal DOOM combat.

being balanced around the N64 controller doesn't help either.

lads i hope this is alright to ask but does the archvile sprite have a nutsack and if it isn't a nutsack why does it look like one

>>>9234329
In general I've been finishing each wad before moving on to the next. I intended to finish Scythe as well if I somehow managed to, but obviously couldn't. It's the only wad I've put on the backburner thus far and is hopefully remains the only one so I can come back to it again after I've completed more wads on UV. I'm surprised I got as far as I did since I was playing on HMP up until Scythe. I'm staying on UV as often as comfortable now though.

Reposting from the last thread in case it got missed (it was near the end).

Revision to "The Other Dario" by Washing Machine Enthusiasts.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1M9EKaj6rEAXSZ4WnvZsztQW2F5kqlV8r/view

Fixes:
>removed untaggable secret
>fixed a monster that didn't spawn in
>fixed not being able to go down a staircase
>made an alternate way to reach the secret soulsphere and secret mega-armour (no arch-vile jump required, but still permanently missable if you dawdle)
>the surprise king boner at the end now spawns in when you raise the staircase to the exit, instead of popping up right in your face which could be an instakill if you got bad RNG or were playing on nightmare

>>9234413
oh, I thought it was good

>>9233736
Whatever is written inside a mods Autoexec.cfg - I honestly can't into cvars

>>9233437
What about 2002 A Doom Odyssey? I found that one pretty decent for a Doom 1 megawad. It's starts out fairly simple but some of the latter maps are really awesome.

>>9234248
>>9234295
TFE actually has a decent amount of not-slaughter. Only in TSE do they kick it into high gear.

>>9233421
>I assume there are few Doom 1 custom wads?
There are quite a few, my favourites are Nicolas Monti's WADs.
Try the Favillesco Alpha Episodes, he's also working on another one called Rupture, but it's still heavily WIP and unfinished.

fastmonsters, except they still randomly move around, and do so while attacking
has it been done

>>9234685
I don't think so. Honestly, I'd love for there to be a semi-fast mode, what it'd do is halve the reaction times on monsters, increase their attack speed and projectile speed by 50% (except the rocket). Imps and Pinkies gets to move a little faster, too.

>>9234707
what led me to that train of thought was thinking most monsters are deadlier when fast, but arch viles and barons are kinda stupid and just stand still, so initially i was gonna say "fastmonsters for everything except things that benefit more from being unpredictable than tossing out more shots", but then decided it'd be cooler if every demon pretended they were in an arena shooter
arch viles could chase you at ludicrous speed while channeling a zap or reviving something
cacos would juke rockets while tossing out plasma incessantly
imagine

A youtuber criticized BTSX and Doomworld is being dramatic about it. Pretty fun so far, check it out before some mod deletes everything.

>>9234801
>Using "the radiating smugness of unorthodox weapon pickup" and calling others pretentious
I think both dw and mtpain are pretentious faggots
I never really played btsx more than four maps of Ep1 with doom RLA and the samey techbases got me really tired and bored, do you recommend continuing it or starting ep2 in vanilla pistolstart?

They don't seem that mad, they just seem to call his criticisms kind of dumb. From that one post I was given the impression that he Sam Hyde'd them or something.

I wish jannies wouldn't delete literally every other thing. Regardless I hadn't seen this Dean of Doom series before, seems cool.

God fucking damn it jannie, I axed a normal doom related question

neat

>>9234896
I liked ep2 better than ep1 for sure

>>9233831
Scythe was really good. Going through all the classic megawads is gonna kill me though at this rate. At least it's easy to organise my progress with Doom Launcher.
Bless hobomaster22 for DL. The tagging, screenshot, and commenting system is really aiding my dogshit memory. The stat tracker isn't amazing especially for ports outside of ZDoom, but that doesn't bother me that much.

>>9234896
it's only 20 or so actual maps, not 32. all of them same exact techbase though. on the whole, maps get slightly less boring further in (at least they eventually drop the retarded "key overlooks door" trope).
I have it in my notes that map12 is the most boringest slog of a map ever made. but as they all blend together, I don't remember what that was all about.

I noticed that there is no Chasm in the OP's folders.
How could we add it?

>>9234967
Sorry for live blogging my stuff, this should be the last one for a while.
Gonna go for Scythe 2 now. Text file warns that UV may be too difficult for those who played UV on Scythe. I'll still start off with UV to see how it is and maybe lower it later.
Once I'm done with this, I'll go for Scythe X. Which is still not completed somehow, and I assume it never will be considering the cacoward judges gave up and just gave it a "missed cacoward award" instead of waiting for the full thing to release apparently.

>>9235024
lots of stuff isn't there (HL, Undying, Requiem...). Chasm is pretty obscure, and is readily available from moddb ('portable')

is blood's extra crispy mod any good?

>>9234215
>>"Doom The Way Croteam Would Do It"
like their version of doom 4?

Checking all of these out.

>>9235036
I've only played a few of the levels with it, but it felt fine to me. Adds some variety if you've played Blood a fuck ton.

>alien vendetta's map 11
holy shit

>>9235127
It and 12 are nice. Map 13 is when it gets very liberal and boring with enemy placements.

>>9235127
Love it so much. Didn't liked AV that much, but map 11 is a masterpiece.
>tfw

>>9235127
Yeah, it's my favourite too, along with map 20.

What are some notable wads made in current year? No listing of /vr/ projects and DBPs though, these are known.

>>9235193
Reelism 2, Elementalism, Pagodia, Altar of Madness, just check

>>9235202
Dario Dario and Milo Dario

>>9235031
thanks for the source (archive doesn't have that version) but the question still stand: I think it would be nice to add everything of note to OP links. Or simply add a new folder for missing games.

Selaco hired an Ashes Afterglow level designer (i.e. 50% of the Ashes team).
