TO SUBMIT NEWS, REPLY TO THIS POST

What if Lord Blaz was Lord Kart?

Finally have all the rooms in. Now to throw down items and monsters and see how it all plays.

>>9580939
>filename
Oh c'mon, it's not that hard.
Unless your character has limited reference material and a highly stylized design, so you just have to make shit up for half the rotations, not that I had to do that, haha.

>>9580949
I don't like spriting very much, I prefer making maps.

How does this look as the logo for the Serious Sam project? Not starting the actual project until probably sometime next week but I want to get the logo done before that.

>>9580985
Not the biggest fan of Doom's text being mixed with Serious Sam's, even with these threads mostly focusing on Doom.

>>9580985
Change the Doom text to the Serious Sam font and we're gold.

>>9581000
>>9581003
Maybe only the /vr/ part in doom font?

>>9581005
Nah. I just don't see why the logo should have anything Doom related when it's a Sam project.

>>9580939
Blaz would be a terrible driver, he canonically is absolute dog shit with most machines and ranged weapons. He can't use a bow to save his life.

>>9581014
So we just give him Gamma's stats?

>>9581019
Yes.

>>9581009
Alright, I was just thinking of keeping some Doom aspect to it but here it is all in Bonk (yes, that's the name of the Serious Sam font). Also I do have a 1024x1024 version, just posting it in 512x512 right now.

>>9581025
Nice.

>>9581024
Restat

>>9581014
Does weird, improbable bullshit happen the more advanced the machine?

Any idea when the next Joy of Mapping event will happen?

>>9581126
Seeing how the last one was 4 years ago, it's probably never coming back. It might be worth asking in their discord though. I thought it was cancelled because of a persistent little shit.

>>9580948
Looks like a good layout.

>>9580939
>>9580949

>>9581367
Nice. I knew you had it in you to do that edit a few more times.

>>9581384
Just need to do the pain frames, the sign, and the icons now. Gonna be honest, I forgot all about the pain frames so I came in expecting there to be way less work, but I'm already in this far so I'm finishing this.
Unfortunately, I don't think I can share this on the message board since it's a blatant edit of Doomguy, which I don't think is a reusable skin.

>>9580932
How do I get a body Ike this?

>>9580939
his feet wouldn't reach the pedals

>>9581417
The karts are made for small animals, I think he'll be fine. He could always put a brick on the gas pedal like Flicky.

>>9580932
opinions on commercial TCs for quake?
- malice
- shrak
- the x-men one
- others?

>>9581431
Most of them have ambition, but aren't particularly great. The range of powers in the X-Men multiplayer is a bit wacky, and they do some nasty things to the intended sequence if you play the campaign in co-op.

The music can be pretty good, the Method of the W.O.R.M. tracks with lyrics (Tragic Rabbit, Miscreant, and Purge) are peak 90s.

>>9581431
>malice
Great weapons, neat enemies, and amazing soundtrack. Overall very nice aesthetic and setting too. Unfortunately, the level design tends to be pretty inconsistent and often doesn't really take advantage of all the new features. It also comes to an end once things start really getting good.
Still, easily the best of the bunch.
>shrak
Some cool concepts... but it's just kinda shit. Good for a curiosity playthrough.
>x-men
It's okay I guess. It's fairly repetitive and has some weird levels, but I suppose it's worth playing if you like X-Men.
>others?
There's Q!Zone, but it might actually be worse than Shrak. Not really a total conversion though.

>>9581417
beat me to it

Does FreeDoom have textures acknowledging TNT/Plutonia wads?
Even the truck wheels?

>>9580939
I created that first frame as a joke but now here I am with a full replacement. Just need to create HUD icons and his signpost and we're good to go. Not bad for a day's work.

>>9581560
Pain frames

where can i download this kart game?

>>9581586
If you want the vanilla experience, just grab this and you're ready to play:
https://github.com/STJr/Kart-Public/releases/download/v1.6/srb2kart-v16-Installer.exe

If you want to play with /vr/, the setup is a bit more complicated. You'll need version 1.3: https://github.com/STJr/Kart-Public/releases/tag/v1.3
Then you'll need to get the custom client we use for 32 players, more character slots, and other modding related thigns:
https://mega.nz/file/ncpRjRYZ#yoVkgXmKNUjdh__jHpmUGgh30J7jlj6RIS8XjbTXKeE

>>9581593
I downloaded this mod years ago, but never got around to trying it. I like the looks of the game, it's almost like a racing Smash Bros due to the crazy number of characters, only I bet the hygiene is better.

>>9581607
You'll be playing with people here, so probably not.
Yes I'm calling you boys smelly.

>>9581559
It does.

Remember Wrath
Remember Ion Fury Aftershock
Remember System Shock Remake
Remember Graven
Remember Rise of the Triad Remaster
Remember Sin Remaster
Remember Kingpin Remaster

>>9580948
Too many corridors mate. Try to break out of that layout practice, unless you're trynna imitate the 90s which by the looks of UDMF you're not. Not to say it's the only way to do it, but try to have rooms connected to rooms, instead of >rooms connected to doors that lead to corridors connected to other another room, and repeat.

>>9581673
>Remember Wrath
Not only all of these barely matter to me, what's important is that I'll have Black Parade sometime in the future (probably, skacky better deliver)

>>9581673
>Wrath
Loved the EA of that game but as time went on it became clear that they were having complications with its development. The more I played it the more I disliked it. Most of all, the shotgun feels inconsistent. The pellet spread's too massive, too inaccurate, to properly hit most of the very thin and short enemies. After a while I realized that and it really ticked me off. If the shotgun's not fixed might I have little hope for the game's replayability.
>IF Aftershock
probably gonna be good.
>SS remake
They're being more vocal about it, seems dev hell is over with. I believe the current release date estimate.
>Graven
Disappointing.
>RoTT remaster
Literally dead
>Sin remaster
Literally dead
>Kingpin remaster
Literally dead

>>9581673
Wrath will probably be my favorite FPS when it's done.
>>9581676
lol wut he does have rooms connected to rooms the layout looks fantastic you dip.

>>9580932
>Custom enemies lack death flags like the ones used in "Dead simple" or the duo barons from Doom1
>Custom weapons dont have a rocket launcher replacement,making icon of sin unbeatable
>Custom weapons change doomguy speed,making levels like "The crusher" impossible to complete because you cant make the jump

>>9581673
The weird thing is that most of these supposedly have le epic oldfag mappers and modders shoehorned into the dev teams. I can only imagine they're being forced to employ some shitty modern 'workflow' that has vacuumed up whatever motivation they had and made things excessively long for no reason.

>>9581703
Well honestly, it's still not possible to gauge whether a level/layout is good or not just based on how many corridors it has. Things take a different perspective when you play. One of the few things you can tell by that view is how heavy on a very specific design a level is, which could make you doubt if that wouldn't be boring in gameplay, such as empty circles and squares.

>>9581703
Well honestly, it's still not possible to gauge whether a level/layout is good or not just based on how many corridors it has from the top-down view, or how complicated or simple the automap looks. Things take a different perspective when you play. One of the few things you can tell by that view is how heavy on a very specific design a level is, which could make you doubt if that wouldn't be boring in gameplay, such as empty circles and squares.

>>9581732
>>9580948
this is why I love serious sam you can literally make a square room the most engaging thing ever because of its enemy roster

>>9581742
I've always thought this was also true for Quake. Doom by comparison relies almost entirely on the level's architecture.

whats everyones favorite doom wad to blow their wad too? Gotta admit, it's hard playing with only one hand

>>9581767
HFFM

>gay shitty genre of games
>likes gay shitty memes
life imitates art

>>9580932
Godly.

>>9581676
There's nothing inherently wrong with corridors or a map heavy with them. You'd need to actually play the map in question to get a feel for it anyway, you'll never get any kind proper impression of a level by just seeing the overhead layout.

>>9581758
I like to think a big reason Sam’s combat works so well is nearly everything can outrun you. If you don’t dispatch the oncoming enemies properly, they’ll overrun you and you’ll die. This need to kill them as quickly and properly as possible slips away if Sam is able to hop around like the Painkiller, herding around a big blob of dumb enemies.
You’re right, Doom gameplay can easily become boring in a huge field with an enemy horde. The player is super fast and none of them can keep up, and some enemies like the archvile are unfun without any cover.

>>9581834
My pet hate for Doom wads is when the mapper thinks a giant army of Revenants will work as a fun fight or challenge.
It's almost a mid level shitpost at this point for how common it is.

just Jackin' it to Doom. Anyone else going for a stroke?

>>9581742
I better see a lot of engaging squares in the upcoming sam jam.

>>9580985
I agree with changing the font. Otherwise, I like it, especially the title.

>>9581005
Nah, /vr/ is so many different things, including this thread.

>>9581126
Isn't that Jimmy Paddock's project? You should e-mail him or send him a PM on one of the forums to ask him, because we're not gonna know.

>>9581671
Do they emulate the green pixel crusts on Drake O'Brien's textures (DOB)?

>>9581695
>Literally dead
Are they all? I thought RoTT would be fine, since that was shown off again relatively recently.

>>9581673
>Wrath
Slow and steady
>Aftershock
Will be good, but, man, are they doing a lot of things at once. It's not only going to have new levels it will also include remade and harder versions of Ion Fury levels.
>Graven
So buggy you can get hardlocked before getting done with the intro quest. It desperately needs bugtesting on all sorts of rigs
>Rise of the Triad
May have successfully escaped development hell, hopefully it finally releases soon
>Sin and Kingpin
Both were announced way too early.
>System Shock Remake
Looks like it finally started doing fine.

>>9581126
It's probably all ogre now until Jimmy decides to resurrect the project.

>>9581884
>My pet hate for Doom wads is when the mapper thinks a giant army of Revenants will work as a fun fight or challenge.
I’m not any more or less offended than when a level throws a horde of imps at me. It all depends on what they expect me to fight them with.

>>9582350
Yes, but Revenants are a favourite of mappers because they have relatively low health but the power to launch insanely damaging homing projectiles randomly.
Imps are just a laugh and fun to kill unless the mapper decides to put literally hundreds into elevated positions surrounding you.

>>9582395
I like when Revenants are put in higher out of reach areas just to snipe at you while you deal with shit directly in front of you.
I also like the old closet full of boners trick, or that one Revenant waiting for you around the corner. I think Revenants are at their best as snipers or ambush enemies.

>>9582395
>Yes, but Revenants are a favourite of mappers because they have relatively low health but the power to launch insanely damaging homing projectiles randomly.
They’re basically “super imps”, and clearing a bunch of them with the launcher or plasma can be a lot of fun.

>>9582493
I think the aforementioned revenant/imp hordes work best with the rocket launcher, because then you have the added aspect of trying not to blow yourself up. It's much more dynamic than BFG spam.

>>9580932
Doom WAD or Quake customach mapset where you kill big tech goons such as söydevs, pr proles, robot grunts and hulks, GID lunatics, and then eventually, get to face Tim Cook,but Mark Zuckerberg, and Amazon's current CEO.

are there any engines or mods for wolf3d so it doesn't look like ass?

>>9582620
What's wrong with ECWolf?

>>9582635
i don't know

reinstalling slaughterMAX slaughtermap-pack

I tried maps of chaos hardcore on Ultra Violence but its just too easy. I've already failed the first map of SlaughterMAX UV-MAX like ten times or something with brutaldoom's: meatgrinder mod and its the most fun I've had with doom so far

>>9582620
>engines
Someone somewhere has a Wolf3D TC for Doom, I'm sure. Or you could just play Blade of Agony.

any mods/mappacks for painkiller?

>>9582693
>Doom games textures

>>9581673
>Remember Wrath
It might be good.
>Remember Ion Fury Aftershock
The devs have been lately more active. I wish they'd add more than like 1 new weapon because one of the big issues of IF is the weapon progression stopping after you get the minigun.
>Remember System Shock Remake
They showed gameplay a few months ago. You don't need to overexpose every game.
>Remember Graven
Yawn
>Remember Rise of the Triad Remaster
It will come eventually and the 3 people who actually want it will be happy.

>Remember Sin Remaster
People will be disappointed with it because SiN has so many shitty levels.

>Remember Kingpin Remaster
Kind of? I wish for a full on REMAKE of Kingpin because while it's kind of fun, I think I'd rather just play through Return to Castle Wolfenstein or something.

Ideally we would've gotten a sequel of Kingpin : Life of Crime right after RTCW because it feels like RTCW is one of the damn near perfect 00s fps games with it's tight movement, satisfying shooting, grounded in realism but not enslaved by it... Also big tiddy Elite Guards... Hot!

play more slaughtermaps shitters

whats the point of playing through a wad if its all too easy on Ultra Violence?

>>9582693

>>9582694
I’ve never looked into them. If you can handle the 2D “downgrade” you’ll enjoy Painslayer.

>>9581706
Well the mappers being veterans really shows for Ion Fury. Perhaps the most intricate and well crafted Build Engine levels ever.

>Trying to log into the zdoom forums

>>9582708
Because slaughtermaps facefuck my frames into single digits.

>>9581673
>Remember Rise of the Triad Remaster
I get the feeling that it'll come out during the first quarter of the year, at least I hope so. I wouldn't expect it to come out later than the first half of this year, especially since we did get an actual trailer last year in September.

Then again, I could very well be wrong but with how long it's been since the original announcement and the fact that it's in good hands now with NightDive and Kaiser, I do feel at least a bit more optimistic.

>>9582740
I'm already logged in but it's telling me I need to change my password to actually use the site. Dumb.

>>9582758
Is it supposed to be just an advanced port to modern system or will it be an actual "remaster?"

>>9582680
>play Blade of Agony
what the hell?
this is great
what other mods are this quality?

>level has a vast, fully-fledged side area behind a locked door
>key to the door is hidden in an obscure secret
>have to backtrack to the door after getting the secret key in order to explore this side room
*sips* Yep. That's some absolute sovl.

>>9581673
>Remember all these
Some of these are especially screwed. For Wrath it now has to compare to all this quality Q1 and even Q2 content I’ve been exposed to since it was announced.

>>9582831
>>9582704
Wrath is good, the only problem is actually getting it finished

>>9581782
>anon born of gay shitty sperm
>has gay shitty opinions

>>9582831
>>9582857
>Wrath is good, the only problem is actually getting it finished
Yeah it looks great. I’m just nowhere near as famished on Quake stuff since it was revealed, and the longer it takes to come out the more I’ll discover and enjoy/consume good custom stuff.

I love Quake's expansions because they feel like the real "Quake 2" even more than D64 feels like "the real Doom 3"
Just considering Q's development history, the final release and why Quake 2 is that way
Compared to D64 being made as an N64 exclusive (almost officially ignored for years until an official new release) and most of its new ideas being cut while D2 already feels like id figured out an "definitive" Doom game that even with its flaws ended up as the one that gets most wads

>>9581205
Thanks, man!

>>9581676
>>9581830
>>9581732
Well, I am kind of imitating the 90's in that the first time I had dreams of being a level designer I was thinking of Half-Life. I played a lot of that before I got back around to Doom. This will wind up being the fourth level I've completed so far. This at least looks like a real map from this perspective compared to my first level, which was just a dumb idea I ran with. (Pic related).

We'll be playing SRB2K at 6:00 PM EST.

Dig Pack has been split into two parts so it can be downloaded through the in-game downloader. Lord Blaz will be appearing in a future character update.

>>9582887
I wonder if calling it “Quake 2” made more sense at the time. These days it feels as jarring as if Quake had been called “Doom 3”.
I also like how it, Q1, and Doom would be further improved and realized through expansions. Doom got it’s roster super shotgun through 2, Quake got more enemy variety through it’s expansions, and Q2 got its underwhelming AI improved through its own expacs.

>>9582779
Advanced spurce port with new content like cut beta enemies, weapons and also new maps.

>>9582898

No

Just finished the Venus mod finally - things were mostly fine, but some sections really starved you on ammo and health until the final section when you get handed-out rockets & grenades like candy.
Also the hardened enemies could've been modified to support extra skins to make them look different from their normal variety for easier prioritization and less jarring suprises
Unfortunately I've got no idea wehre the hell the secret level was supposed to be accessed from, might look for it again later

>>9582997
Quake 2 console ports are better than PC because they use the cut areas from PC SP, like the big gun unit featuring the boss and reactor on ps1.

Is Eviternity the slaughterwad I've been told it is? I want to try pistol starting it with no saves to try and practise getting better at the game, but if it's too bullshit/slaughtery I'll forget the no saves thing. I want to play it anyway.

That is because romero still has the source code in hands and what we got was the latest patch which knightmare worked on it.

I hope Quake II gets (Enhanced) just like the first game.

>>9583352
>Quake 2 RTX isn't a remaster, you double nigger.
yes it is you quintuple nigger. it's literally an old game with new code and graphical features, that's the fucking definition of a remaster -- bolstered furhter by the fact that it's literally called a remaster by the people who made it. tell me why it isn't a remaster so i can tell you why you're wrong.

>>9583412
RTX didnt fixed the Ai, is incompatible with everything made for Q2 over the last 25 years, Including the damn mission packs and nvidia stole shit from everyone.
Also Music and cinematics doesn't work either, and they never bothered to fix it.

>it's not a remaster because it didn't fix the AI

I legitimately don't believe people like you are human. I'm smarter than you. I'm capable of seeing things logically, yet everything in your life is skewed by weird biases and offbeat perceptions, almost like you're programmed to be a fucking retard. I hope bad things happen to you.

I was actually asking. I don't know what you're talking about with nVidia stealing shit in regards to Quake 2 RTX.

I'll never understand why nobody tried to replicate the n64 missions on pc, doesn't seems to be a hard task

>>9582693
>autistic reason

>>9583584
I ask that question everytime when it comes to goldeneye but for some reason no one cares about that but hey at least timesplitters is being remade for pc

>>9583602
goldeneye and perfect dark (at least perfect dark for sure) were decompiled, surely someone has a port by now

>>9583602
>at least timesplitters is being remade for pc
no it isn't

>>9583584
Mission 64 was an attempt, just not finished.

dude, that project has been ongoing since the early 2010s, and it's been losing steam ever since. also that's an entirely new game being remade in UE engine, not a port of any of the first 3 games.
t. biggest TS autist on earth, come at me

>>9583616
let's be real, we will be all dead by the time this comes out (the original developers too)

>>9583618

? am I supposed to just have no hope after black mesa happened then

>>9583626
it's never going to come out, especially now that they're working on TS4, snd even if it does it won't be TS

>>9584064

>>9583862
you could, but DOOM is certainly best on a PC with a mouse (or maybe some form of gyro aim), at least with freelook ON (which i recommend), though without freelook, even a joystick should be fine, though not ideal for the fast and frantic combat of some wads (even if you're good at console FPS).

>>9584069

>>9584242

>>9583862
I'm sure that there's some port which can be run on a PSP, but i don't know if any of them are remotely recent. Doom is best played with a mouse, like the other guy says, but it controls quite well with decent gamepad controls and sensible button binds, two analog sticks takes you quite a lot farther than something like Keyboard Only, aka 1993 poverty mode.

>>9583323
Technically. It's Skillsaw influenced but not Sunder/Ribbiks influenced. Lots of enemies, but no slow grinds. It's not insanely hard, but it's somewhere along lines of difficulty of AA or BTSX.

>>9584581
>no slow grinds
Dehydration and Anagnorisis say hi

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA STOP PUTTING IN BULLSHIT LIKE BREAKABLE PLANKS AND OTHER COMPLETELY UNINTUITIVE STUFF IN DOOM

>>9584618
it's soulful tho, at least it's not whatever sandy did in map 28

>>9584629
>it's soulful tho
no, it is EXACTLY like map28 bullshit. I spent 30 minutes running around the weird-as-shit map trying to find some hidden button to open it. the map tries to lock you into the room, presumably so you'll have to figure it out before leaving, except you can just move from the right to left on the small ledges.
in the end the only way I figured it out is finding a video on youtube... in which a guy opened it by accident by using a SSG on a nearby mob and hasn't even realized it was locked.

it's just bad design. having a puzzle wad like Epic 2 means you're on the lookout four this stuff. Having ONE puzzle like that across 15 maps means I won't even consider I need to do something like that and will just run around trying to find something that doesn't exist.

>>9583610
I honestly think this is what Q2 should have been from the very start just from the way enemies behave upon death

>>9584639
you mean being ungibbable with any shotgun/machinegun even when using quad? you actually like that?

Somebody reads Walter Moers literature

Is it morally reprehensible to include a maze with nothing but a super shotgun, shotgun shells and a bunch of archviles in your levels?

>>9584648
only if they don't teleport around seemingly at random
the entire level should have this 'pitch black/visible' blinking lighting, too

>>9582779
>>9582942
It's going to be like re-releases of older DOOM and first Quake: original game running through a wrapper (in this case, KEX Engine).
>>9583474
The sheer amount of confusion and stupidity around all these terms are valuable for both developers & publishers, so there's likely a lot of people who consider stuff like Quake's re-release a remake (which is totally wrong for its current definition).

>>9584643

>>9584607
No slow grinds as in combat. Not referring to the size of the map.

>>9584726
Wolpertinger
is either a german fantasy creature that nobody knows; or a race from the writing of german humorist and fantasy author Walter Moers

So I'd like to port Project Babel's syncing and chaining to other monster mods, particularly when I make my own. Has anyone here tried to do this or to make a universal patch or something along those lines?

Also is there a reason cyberdemons and spider masterminds don't get in on the fun? Enhanced AI would be the perfect improvement to the lackluster masterminds

>>9584073
>Doom in all caps
>Recommending freelook
Why don't you just tell him to play Brutal Doom and be done with it?

>>9584742
There are lots of interpretations and taxidermy amalgams that people call Wolpertingers, pic related.
Moers's Wolpertingers are more dog-like. I prefer the more traditional "rabbit with wings and antlers" of folklore.

>>9584607
Yeah, I've recently discovered Eviternity has some giant maps that can take 45 mins plus to finish. Dying near the end of that without saving sounds like a waste of my time, so I guess I might break the no saves rule after all. I'm not aiming to be decino here, I'm just trying to have fun.

>>9584768
Not counting that one setpiece fight in Cryonology (also a pretty big map), it starts to get slaughtery from about the fifth episode. Although your definition of slaughter may wary. Not really a fan of Dragonfly, but as eyecandy popcorn romp I'd say Eviternity is one of the best.

>>9583557
i guess performance was the priority

>>9584639
I still don’t know why he decided a “64 mod” could use things like tracers for hitscan weapons, faster switching, that “melee” move that can cancel enemy death animations, etc but it’s certainly appreciated.

Did you read the books? If so, in what language?

>>9584640
Not exactly, I just love both the new "blind-firing while choking" animation cycle the Chicks can do now and how sometimes Flyers/Technicians drop down and hurt you if they crash into you instead of just exploding mid-air amongst other cool things like visible tracers and audible enemy footsteps

>there was more than 400 downloads of the beta version of my wad
Well, looks like I have to finish it now, wish me luck.

>>9584837
>that “melee” move that can cancel enemy death animations
Do you mean the "invisible jump-kick"? It's part of KMQ2 itself and I actually both love (stun-locking is a valid tactic) and hate it (have fun jumping onto barrels) - but it honestly should had been only usable when no weapon is selected

>>9584948
I like it as an option to tell dying guys to “fuck off and die, thanks” so they’re out of the way. It’s a KMQ2 feature? That’s nice, I might start messing around with it some more.
>have fun jumping onto barrels
lol ah shit maybe I’m fine

any good mods/mappacks for rtcw?

>>9584976
2bh there's like 2-3 instances in entirety of vanilla Q2 where you actually need to reach a secret by hopping off an explosive barrel to it - 1 of them is the blatantly obvious but ureachable QuadDamage in the 2nd level, so that's not really something of a crutial feature being compromised by that addition

>>9584979
'Real Return to Castle Wolfenstein' is generally what most people recommend. You can download it straight from Steam if you own the base game on there. Some of the changes are a bit weird, but it gives you plenty of options to play around with.

Otherwise... not really. Everything else out there either feels like some really tryhard fanfiction, or is absolute slavjank with Quake 1-tier map geometry.

>>9585051
How is this?

>>9584176
It's acceptable, unless it's invisible in the automap, in which case you're a fucking monster.

>>9585051
still at the first map but pretty cool so far

>>9585078
>>9585093
sorry

>play on UV
>try to at least kill all monsters/get all secrets
but
>continuous not pistol start
>save with some frequency (not save scumming) because free time is fairly limited and re-doing some levels isn't a good use of said time

i think it a fair balance between not too casual but not overly "wannabe doomgod" (both of which are fine for those who want to play like that)

>>9585078
ok so i finished the first map (and found the secret level)
it's very good but also very brutal.

>>9585175
side note: the secret are not so secret

>>9585169
Yeah you do what you want, is nice.
>>9585175
How brutal, and what settings are you starting it with?
For some reference, I found that French Meat was fine while RATM was much more strict and evil.

>>9585169
This, but I still pistol start these days because finding your equipment on-site feels more fun to me than bringing in all the guns and hundreds of rounds from the previous map.

>>9585206
well done
i counted 5 hell hounds in the first map...

>>9584759
i used to love BD when i was like 13, i will admit, but i don't care for it anymore, id mostly rather play vanilla or some better gameplay mod.
also, saying DOOM in all caps is multiple people (even portaDOOM does it in the OP).

>>9585212
>i counted 5 hell hounds in the first map...
That’s hot. Trauma Therapy had some rude placements of them in the first level as well. I still need to finish that.
>>9585209
I did continuous pistol restarts when I played 64 last year. Sometimes I’d get myself merc’d near the beginning of a level just to purposefully pistol start.

>>9585250
>Trauma Therapy had some rude placements of them in the first level as well
the placement in Ira are pretty fair i'd say. i used the word brutal cause i didn't expect this many enemies on the first map but it's pretty fair. there's more than enough ammo too. i just finished French meat that was pretty generous with life also whereas this one is more cautious on that front...

>>9585241
Problem with vanilla doom (even if I like it too) is that it feels so slow and less intense from BD. Don't play directly after you played BD then it's fine. Or play some wads thats intense, like ancient aliens i play vanilla

>>9585241
I was just being a faggot, anon. There's nothing wrong with enjoying the game your way.

>>9585209
That's fair. I like the swiss-army knife approach I can take with the stuff carried over.

>>9584818
There's an issue raised on github about gl_overbright not working in half-life since they got rid of the D3D renderer like 3 years ago and its still not fixed.

>>9585338
also the way it handles music engine-wide (cuts during load screens in add-ons)

>>9585270
if i want more intensity, id use babel nowadays.
i really like how it tastefully adds elements without being overbearing (it even adds quickswaps, but balances it to not be OP, making it a fun choice, and makes using both shotguns together super fun cause its not hard to go to the normal and back whenever needed).
if i want something more, id rather use kegans stuff.

ive also thought about nu-DOOM mods, but idk what wads id use them on.

>>9585350
the level transitions in software mode are so much smoother

>>9585353
It also further balances the shotguns by making the regular deal roughly half the damage of the super as opposed to a third. It also narrows the spread.
It is the ideal shotgun balance.

>>9585358
does the source port support software rendering?

>>9585359
it is ideal, i also like that the plazma gun doesn't have that delay to it, its not a big deal, but it is a nice touch

>>9581025
i was gonna say i didn't mind the doom font but the other guy is right, this is better

>>9585360
Not sure, but I've never heard of it. I think it's D3D only and DX8 is the lowest it can go.

>>9585361
I think I get it: That ‘buff’ could be due to the ongoing dilemma of trying to balance the plasma rifle and BFG while they share the same pool of ammo. It’s also fun how a delay got added to the chaingun to help justify the other buffs it has, allowing it to be a viable murder machine.

The frustrating thing is that Xash3D doesn't even support overbrights in Half-Life

>>9584746
>So I'd like to port Project Babel's syncing and chaining to other monster mods, particularly when I make my own
Well, as the guy who made it, what you want to do is grab ProjectBabel\actors\babel_monster_base.txt and basically just copy it into your project. There are a few other dependencies in babel_static_functions.txt, but other than that you pretty much just inherit from SyncEnabledMonster or ChainEnabledMonster and use the appropriate hold state calls to make sure your monsters don't get their actions clobbered by signals at the wrong times. It's that simple.
As a bonus, those also include (but do not necessarily require you to use) the fear functionality.
>Also is there a reason cyberdemons and spider masterminds don't get in on the fun? Enhanced AI would be the perfect improvement to the lackluster masterminds
Honestly, for fear, it made some maps way too easy, or it had to have the thresholds set so high that it never happens. Like if you just BFG a bunch of hell knights and the sybie runs away, not fun.
For sync/chain, it just didn't seem to do much. I tested it out early on but the effects were negligible, so I removed them.

>>9585458
>sybie
cybie*
Also, I forgot to mention: feel free to just chop out anything you don't want or rename stuff or whatever. The Hell Knight has some decent comments in it explaining what everything is and does, since it uses a little bit of everything. A lot of the stuff in Babel is fairly highly coupled, specifically for fear, but there's also things I never did like making weapons attract monster attacks and other fuckery with targeting. Once you get a grip on the basics of exactly what I did to get sync/chain to work you'll see it's fairly straightforward, honestly not complex at all. If you want to get more complex and make a mod that isn't trying to be vanilla+, but maybe a little more out there, there's a TON of things that you can do just by throwing triggers around and manipulating states. The Cacodemon, for example, uses the same kinds of signals for its dodges. You could go so far as to make paired enemies that always do complementary actions, or even potentially simple squad-based AI, that's just a lot harder than what I did and would probably blow up vanilla balance.

>>9581026
>>9585370
That's good to hear, thanks. Guess I better get to work on a little info graphic for all the rules next.

Do any of you have any tips to make rooms look less bland and boring? Pic related, it looks nice but I don't really know where to begin with making rooms look that pretty.

>>9585503
use AI to generate better textures

>>9585503
Pick a different color for the floor, that's the only thing that stands out to me (despite not actually standing out lol).

>>9585416
one more good reason to stick with the PS2 port for now...

>>9585503
If you have a room or area you think looks too bland or empty, add some kind of an indentation to make it look a bit more varied. Here you can see there's the highest layer of green bricked floor, with a green cobblestone cross shaped identation which has some further cool shit added in the middle. Add shapes onto shapes with varied height to make things look more layered. The ceiling could be too just a black rectangle, but it looks better just by adding more smaller black rectangles into the black rectangles. It's good if the room has some kind of a landmark that makes it memorable, I'd say in this case it's the corpse pit in the middle. If you already have some detailing done, let's apply this example to the wooden pillars here, a simple idea to add more decoration would be trying to connect what's already there, in this case it's the metal bars coming out of the ceiling. It's a simple step but it adds an another layer to the ceiling while also making the pillars look more connected to it. Idk if I'm just overanalyzing shit here, but I tried to dissect what kind of thought processes would go into making a room like this.

>>9585573
NTA but that's some great analysis anon.

>>9585503
Is that your room?

I've found that rooms look a lot more interesting the more you play with light.

Pic related is an area from one part of this map >>9580948


Even if nothing is going on in a given area, trying out effects like changing the fade color to make god rays from the skylight, or using sector lines to simulate scatter from the lights in the hall can make basic bitch STARTAN look kinda pretty.

>>9585503
Add lighting. Imo that's the main thing that makes maps look shitty if it isn't done properly

>>9585503
You can make columns expand over the ceiling. Or maybe liquid flow from the walls and into the pit.
Or think of how in the future you will loop player to go past the room's side and into the window.

>>9585604
always hated this technique. specifically because of the additive opaque parts where one wall is 50% translucent and you can see through to the outside of another wall which adds another 50% white making a total 75% white. should be coded to ignore rendering translucent walls beyond the first.

Is it me, or does dsda/PRBoom+ make the dark areas of maps TOO dark?
I've slightly upped the gamma and set the lighting to shaders and dark areas give Doom 3 a run for its money. It's cool if this is actually how Doom is meant to look and I'm just spoiled by GZDoom fucking up the lighting but it can result in some cheap hits from monsters standing around in the dark.

>A brush consists of several faces, each of which is defined by a plane and additional texture information. The actual geometry of the brush is only defined by the planes, of which there must be at least four. Each plane defines a half space, that is, an infinite set of points that is bounded by a plane. The intersection of these half spaces forms a convex polyhedron. Note that the actual vertices of the brush are NOT stored in the map file. The vertices are determined by BSP (or a level editing program) by computing the intersections of the planes.

>>9586046
the level order for this project worked out pretty nice
E1 has most of the focus on atmosphere and iwad difficulty encounters (except for maybe the harrowing blue key grab in map 4) while E2 is the submissions that took the project as a challenge to make combat puzzles with doom 1 monsters

>>9586027
He was probably thinking "How do I get a 3D DOS game running on the average consumer hardware at a stable frameratemmmmm"

>>9586204
But aren't they translated to actual vertices in the end? It shouldn't make any difference to the performance.

>>9586027
That's the normal way to do things. This is also how hardware rasterizes triangles: you have 3 line equations (in screen 2D space) and you test if the pixel is on the correct side of all 3 at the same time; if it is then it's inside the triangle (some details omitted).
The plane representation gives you a trivial answer to the question "is this point inside the volume?". The vertex representation gives you jack shit, and you need topology information on top because a set of vertices can define many shapes depending on how you group them.

Damn, The Darkening is intense without relying on slaughter hordes.

Dividing faces into polygons is one of the options to generate the picture. You can use some other rasterization method (scanline fill or ray casting, for example). Collision detection and visibility work with planes. Read something on how compiler tools process the map data from the editor, and why. If I recall correctly, Quake-related engines combine all static brushes into one complex enclosed space (the “inside” of the map where everything exists), then subdivide it with each face plane to produce many subvolumes touching each other. You can also check GoldSrc and Source documents from Valve, their principles are similar.

When you have planes, you know you have planes by definition. When you have polygons, you need additional calculations to get normals from positions of vertices (which accelerators can implement in hardware, but you can't), and, sometimes, to recover the fact that polygons belong to the same plane.

Are there any source ports for Unreal Gold?

>>9585502
Here's what I got as a rough draft for the rules and general mapping tips.
A Serious Case of /vr/ Rules:
>Map must be made for Serious Sam The Second Encounter 1.07 version (this is the most up to date retail version you get from Steam/GOG)
>Usage of custom textures, sounds, and music is approved and encourged
>Usage of custom entities or other mods is NOT allowed. Outside of textures, sounds, and music your map should be 100% vanilla with 1.07
>Map must be beatable (duh)
>Map must have proper co-op support
>Do not make edits of existing maps
>Project host has the final say and can deny your entry if it is not up to /vr/ standards (please put some effort into your map)

Tips:
>Trigger a checkpoint whenever a new weapon is picked up to ensure everyone spawns with an "up-to-date" arsenal
>Make co-op portals for arenas that get closed off (and one-way doors for any closed off rooms/secrets so players don't get trapped)
>Aim to balance your map around Serious difficulty first, but don't be afraid to make support for other difficulties afterwards
>Also keep co-op in mind when balancing encounters
>"Hot Starts" are not that common in Serious Sam, try making a "lobby" room for players to jump around in without risk of triggering anything (useful for co-op)
>A good fight is more enjoyable than a good looking room, don't stress yourself out over brushwork
>Use the official maps as references (I won't berate you for coping models, texture work, etc. from official maps) (You can have multiple maps opened at once and switch between them in the editor)
>Get creative with secrets!

Any other important rules I might be missing for a mapping project?

>>9586641
NO.
Also software rendering doesn't work properly.

Given that most people here never mapped for Serious Sam, do you have a map that would be an example of your standards ?

>>9587016

Yes.

>>9586649
>Map must have proper co-op support
Isn't that kind of insane? I couldn't imagine balancing for 2-8 players considering just how many variables there'd be.

>>9587040
I'm pretty sure "proper co-op support" just means no softlocks or funkyness due to respawning players.

i had so much good times with that mod back in the day.
also i love the models

I wanted to slog-thru Unseen again using Yamagi, but it turns out that the exact same 'safe landing bug' from KMQ2 is now also present here in YQ2 aswell somehow - did the 3.24 unofficial patch messed up the physics in the sourceports? I ask this now because when previously I had been using v3.23 this only occured in KMQ2-dependant mods like Pax Imperia

That part was somewhat of a joke. This is going to be the first time people here map for Serious Sam and our standards are going to be rock bottom. Basically don't make a map without any effort put into it.
>>9587040
Like the other anon said "proper co-op support" means adding checkpoints for respawning and not softlocking players who fall behind. Balancing for co-op is not required but should be kept in mind.

It's perfectly reachable, you can jump on the crate fairy easily.

>>9585503
It's because that's the tapestry and skull pit room. There's nothing in it but tapestries and a skull pit. What's the room supposed to be? I'm not saying you should put a nice little flower in the corner, but I dunno, if it's a skull pit maybe they have executions in that room or some shit? So maybe there could be some rows of seats? That sort of thing? I don't know what was in your head while you were making it and I'm still new to mapping, so maybe what I'm saying is dumb for a reason I don't know yet. Just giving you some of my thoughts in the hope that they may be helpful.

I like the way this sucks. This is cool.

power up idea: you are invincible to enemies but not level hazards

Pipework-Powered Pillars in sewerjam 2 was good. Much better than Rancid Retrofit.
The constantly moving platforms made for some fun platforming during combat, and the final arena doing the same thing was challenging. Though it would have been nice to have a central pillar or something as a bit of cover, because those nailgunners at the end were destroying me.

i know it's not a retro game, but i installed ion fury today and it's fun
anyone knows are there any cool mods or maps for it so i can try after i finish the game?

ive finally played a wad seriously with GMOTA (arrival with the doom slayer), and its really fun.
but is there an enemy guide?
idk what half these enemies are, one of them almost seems like some sort of marauder revenant that almost kills me every time, but its hard to tell in the chaos, or at least some names to keep track.

>>9588265

>>9588351
What're they using as weapons? Sword and shield, a big arm cannon, normal Revenant stuff, or are they solid black chaos Revenants?
I have a lot of skeletons in GMOTA.

What's the currently recommended Doom 2016/Eternal gameplay mod for GZDoom? Is Death Foretold the best one?

>>9588351
Oh and I actually did put a really basic enemy guide thing on the Zdoom forum page, I'd love to make some kinda manual though.

https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?t=45115

>>9588357
red with a sword and shield, very aggressive and it seemed like it was defecting my attacks (which is why i made the comparison), but looking at the Zdoom forum, it just shoots from its shield.
>>9588362
oh, i got GMOTA from itch so i didn't see that.
thanks kegan

>>9588369
Oh no worries then, those red guys are called Hellfos and they replace Barons. Unless you're playing on Knightmare, then they're palette swapped out with Stygian Wraths. None of the monsters in GMOTA block or reflect projectiles, and most of them pretty simple, so just beat the shit out of them.

I guess Doom is 2D after all.

>>9588360
probably the best one right now, but kar en tuk will probably be alot better.

I just dreamed I was playing doom eternal and suddenly geoff keighley appeared out of nowhere, he was invincible and started to chase me

Friday Night Firefight is up, today marks our 100th session! We'll be going back to where it all began for the event, Lazarus deathmatch. No mods today other than vrsounds and litespree, the gameplay is as vanilla as it gets.

what do you think of quake unofficial add ons?

>>9588665
i like Shrak

>>9588659
The one character I'd consider it worth it to do left/right steering frames for every direction, so you could bounce the eyes around.

>>9588683
I'm saving that for the pain frames. His eyes will bounce around like pinballs.

>>9588659
heh, karti

>>9588665
Malice is great overall, but inconsistent in level design quality.
The rest are varying degrees of meh.

>>9588665
they're fine.
though any mod goodness for console and steam-only players (not common, but possible, assuming they don't already use luxtorpeda) is a win for us.

If you compare the UI of WinRAR, with all tiny convenient details slowly gathered for decades, and the UI of 7-zip File Manager, about which no one has given a single fuck, you can learn a lot about user experience. Just trying to use early 2000s WinRAR make you notice the absences of many things you subconsciously expect to be there. It is one of the best examples of native Win32 applications and desktop integration.

>>9589376

>>9589140
>WinRAR is extremely outdated
anon..

>>9589390
Are you trolling perhaps? Not initial release, but latest stable which was out 6 months ago. And it's not like that anon was right about WinRAR either.

>>9589026
Interesting.

Anyone remember the Marathon TC where they used Jjaro implants on children and it was a metaphor for lobotomizing retarded kids? I think it was from like 2000.

Are there any interesting gameplay mods for Marathon? I really, really don't care for its vanilla gameplay. I get going and I'd just rather be playing Doom.

>>9589385
I am not talking about compression. The difference is only relevant to specific groups of people dealing with specific kinds of information in a specific manner anyway. Not everyone get significant gains from that (in the same manner, a home user running optipng -o7 hoping to save a byte or two simply wastes electricity to heat the atmosphere). I am talking about user interface and attention to details. Anyone who is recommending 7zFM over WinRAR should be tested for dementia.

The zpaq site actually has the chart that EXPLAINS EVERYTHING:
http://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html

7-zip became famous at a very specific time (2000s), because it could give better compression on average compared to ZIP, a solution from the 80s, when amount of RAM in home computers had been 100 times (!) smaller, to say nothing of performance differences, and old RAR (mid-90s thing). Those who needed to fit as much as possible into the archive could choose to wait for it to do the work. If you used pirated games downsized to 1 CD or 1 DVD, you can probably remember that even decompression in installers using 7-zip was really slow on contemporary computers. However, as we can see, 7-zip is not only slow compared to older algorithms, it is also slow compared to other tools that give roughly the same archive size. Today, if your case is that specific one that benefits from properly chosen compression, you have the following choices:
— using a faster algorithm that gives the same size;
— using some modern really fast LZ* implementation that gives roughly the same results as expected from zlib, but can be often added for transparent on-the-fly compression and decompression;
— using a slower algorithm for maximum compression.

>>9589463
So should I not use 7zip? It's so simple and I don't like winrar bothering me to buy a license. Fuck off I'm just gonna use 7zip if it ain't broke don't fix it nerd.

>>9589465
Well, you can either buy that license, or use the magical key generation tool. You can also install and use both WinRAR and 7-zip (for example, the latter can be used to access files on Linux partitions on disks and disk image files — I bet you didn't know that). However, the statement that 7-zip is a “better choice” is both incorrect and outdated.

>>9589478
Sure whatever still using 7zip.

>>9589465
i use 7zip but winrar is better in my experience. you can ctrl+c -> ctrl+v files from in and out of winrar (doesnt work with 7zip). also if you have the same archive open in 2 windows, they will prevent each other from editing the archive (saying its being used)

>>9589478
>Well, you can either buy that license, or use the magical key generation tool
Why?

>You can also install and use both WinRAR and 7-zip
Why?

>(for example, the latter can be used to access files on Linux partitions on disks and disk image files — I bet you didn't know that).
I don't, because I'm not a fosstard.

>However, the statement that 7-zip is a “better choice” is both incorrect and outdated.
Works better for me.

>>9589463
anon, I use lzma/2 since I know it exists because it makes smaller archives than rar and is faster than zpaq, I don't know about that rambling about user interfaces, I just care about smaller archives

I miss WinAce bros.

>>9589463
in my experience, the early nineties were dominated by ARJ
then with the advent of Win9x, WinZip became king until the turn of the millennium
WinRAR had a long stretch during the 2000s
7zip has been my go-to choice for the past 15 years

>>9589749
monochrome is tricky to read-out sometimes

>>9589796
I suppose that falling damage can be neutralized with some trick. Either the same as mentioned in 3.13 patch changelog, or a different one. It may also depend of fps, see

>>9589696
god damn that takes me back

>>9588021

>>9589796
If you keep spamming the jump key (+moveup) during the fall in SP, you can safely descend from almost any height (the heighest point of TheEdge seems to be the max reliable height to pull it off) - and it's especially trivial to perform if landing on an uneven surface while moving in the direction of a downward slope
