Time to play the original system shock again while i wait for daddy mandalore to tell me what to think about the remake

is Smooth Doom still good or should I use GZSprFix 2.0 and Smooth Weapons Enhanced?

>>9955103
I think smooth doom comes with very subtle gameplay changes and you need some snipped version of smooth doom

Whose hand is this?

It's mostly shit like visually differentiating the homing rockets from boners.

possible to change texture name without fucking shit up? doom

I was planning on using Eleven AI/Tortoise AI for squadmates & conversations ala Mass Effect. I was also interested in using Stable Diffusion to make a ton of unique NPCs for towns. Or alternate outfits/armors for certain characters. It would reduce workload and make world building easier.

>>9955118

>>9955158

For those who play Project Brutality, what kind of wad stack do you usually run?
I was looking for gameplay wads to spice up my map crawls with Synthdoom playing and actually found the latest Project Brutality to have pretty neat weapons and gunplay. I especially like the idea of accumulating upgrades and akimbo weps over the course of a megawad but without the inventory management of something like DoomRLA.
Only issue: I don't care for the gore and fluff at all, in fact it gets in the way on slaughtermaps. Thankfully adding Colorful Hell seems to override the PB monsters and their effects but I wonder if the lack of headshot modifiers on CH monsters kinda screws the damage balance of PB weapons.
I could switch to Trailblazer, I like its theme and mechanics and it's quite a bit more powerful but the player moves way too fast for my liking. Also, I don't think it's compatible with the gorgeous HXRTC HUD...

>>9955173
I don't understand how blurring your vision and making everything look like shit is a good thing. There's a reason everyone shits on graf for enabling bilinear filtering by default.

>>9955208
People have been sold on the idea of it being nostalgic.

>>9955215
When most people that use it weren't even alive back when the game was released. Huh. Really makes you think.

>>9955217
Nostalgia for something they didn't experience is all the easier to market to, they don't get why the thing they're sold on isn't remotely accurate, just that it's doing an old thing so it's better.

>>9955184
Here, anon: https://file.io/Angie9jwwz4B

Might have to tweak the screen size.

>>9955192
Matter of preference desu. It's far from perfect, but better than pure pixels, IMO.

>>9930236
>What ever happened to the rentry anon?
>I would be up for writing some basic tutorials.

Go ahead. I'll place the links next to the author's corner into likewise formatted table.

If the anon playing through Bloom is around, how is it going? Contemplating starting it myself. Might choose whichever character you didn't choose.

>>9955173
SOVL

>>9955270
Not that anon but I played it through some weeks back, it's pretty great fun.

Any anons want to try a map I made a little bit ago? made it using the admortem resources and a couple others, hence the file size being probably bigger than is normal.
anonfiles com/gbe5Y8u2za/Spooks_wad
If the final areas look a bit off/shit with the textures, my excuse is some of the textures I used just fucking disappeared from the wad for some reason so I just quickly replaced them with the first thing I saw that was near enough. Using custom resources was a major learning experience with this map

>>9955270
Also not that anon but It's awesome you should play it

>>9955267
Also, ljon's website with all his mods seems to be kill, no mirrors

>>9955287
It went down a year ago as well for a while, not sure if it's domain name thing or something.

Somebody'd probably have to poke the dude.

>>9955281
>>9955286
I'm gonna hold out a bit just to see who the original anon played as but if it takes too long, I'll just pick. I'm in the middle of another megawad currently anyway.

>have no problem at all with Plutonia; able to beat just about every map on UV on first no-save attempt after learning the map using saves
>try Scythe since it's listed next on the difficulty progression thread
>starting with map 21 it's absolutely kicking my ass and I'm dying over and over and over
Well, that escalated quickly.
For those of you following that difficulty progression thread on Doomworld, the gap between Plutonia and Scythe is fucking massive.

>>9955285
I will in a bit. I'm in the middle of something else. I don't know shit about map making and I ain't the best at Doom either though I have UV'd Doom 1, 2 and Plutonia. Haven't gotten to TNT.

>>9955309
That's why a lot of anons recommend the vanilla stuff first. It gets harder from 1 and onward and after that, a lot of custom wads are even harder. Jumping right into custom wads without playing some vanilla 2 at the very least will get you obliterated most of the time.

Pretty colors

>>9955309
as soon as scythe 2 gets to map 23 it makes every scythe 1 map up to 29 look like a walk to the grocery store in a good neighborhood
In my opinion™ you should play what's fun or maybe skip to whatever wad you want to "work up to" on HNTR instead of forcing yourself to scratch items off a list

>>9955329
Oh, I'm absolutely having fun.

>>9955296
I'll need to put them up somewhere, if I get a hold of them.

>>9955309
>difficulty progression thread
What's that? I just pick all my pwads on the basis of prettiest titlepic.

>>9955265

>>9955173
>Anyone else use reshade when playing Doom?
Not with Doom or other shooters before 98 because I want nothing between those delicious chunky pixels. Starting with Unreal is when I prefer filtering. I don't use reshade at all, closest are some dumb settings I found through Retroarch when emulating consoles.

Weird question but is there any way to get as much blood splatter from a single shot puff as you get from a shotgun-like blast?
I'm trying to get my boltgun to feel just right and I'm getting there but it still feels a bit impotent when killing something that can't be gibbed and you just get a tiny spurt of blood.
I tried to make several low-damage explosions one after the other on the puff, spawn short-lived shrapnel-like projectiles, nothing has worked so far

>>9955327

found one o them doom shovelware things
this map claims to have "EXCELLENT aesthetic design"

>>9955489
That is legitimately one of the best maps of 1994.

I'm drunk and didn't pay attention to who made it, but there's a level on 1024.wad that uses some Maximum Carnage ost for a map and I've always wondered why no one has done that until this point. That game's music steals riffs from so many good songs which I am actually fine with, and they totally belong in a violent game, especially Doom. Riffs like that are just too good not to accompany aggressive/violent gameplay.

>>9955521
Literally no one has played that game

>>9955538
I've played both of them and I use some of that music in GMOTA's Jukebox.

Are you using ZScript? Because if so, you can do basically anything. Just make a puff that spawns exactly your desired amount of blood and guts on impact with an actor. You can probably manage it in decorate too but it might be jankier.

Make sure to play it without mouselook if you haven't already, I played through it like that and really enjoyed it. AD to turning left/right, ZC for strafing and 2X for looking up and down.

you know how boom scrollers accelerate the thing theyre effecting instead of changing its speed instantly
does anyone know if the speed is reset when the thing (e.g. voodoo doll) uses a silent teleporter? usually silent teleporters carry momentum so i wouldnt think so but who knows...

good morning doomtards

>>9955882
For line it seems like it preserves the moment. For the usual teleport I'm not so sure.

dawww

brown

>>9955173
This looks really good!

As an aside, I've been playing through vanilla Doom 2 maps and boy they are a mix.

The Inmost Dens was actually a pretty fun, tight and even nice looking map. Then it was a couple of levels of Sandy's city maps and I think they might feel a little less like a huge slog if they weren't put so back to back. They're not super long but kinda confusing in terms of layout, to the point where Sandy's putting those arrows on the ground to guide the player (thank god for that I guess)

>>9956098
So far I think my main gripe with DOOM 2 is both the inconsistency between the maps and compared to Doom 1 not having the sense of proper "episodic structure". It's there kind of, in the sense that every so often you get an intermission screen with text but I would've quite liked some more boss levels. Oh well!

GOOD MORNING MOTHERFUCKERS. 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!

>>9955205
Literally just my 3.0 edit from a year ago with Mugshots Reimagined and a cut down version of Ultimate Doom Visor that just has the motion tracker and toggleable/wearable goggles and radsuits. Sometimes I'll throw a jukebox in.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANxqyWpdKa4
I've been fiddling with MBF21 bestiary again, recorded what I have right now. Want to remove some of the less interesting options but not sure which ones are uninteresting.

>>9956143
I've been working on adding a stab for the powered sword. I still gotta find some good sword swooshes and shit from either an arcade game or an SNES game for the normal sword too.
I'd love to use sounds from Samurai Showdown as I'm pretty sure that has a variety of whiffs, but I'm not sure if anyone's ripped those damn sounds

>>9956154

>>9956154
I'm sure you can find those if you look around. Samurai Shodown is a 2D fighting game, so chances are somebody's ripped out the assets to port the characters into MUGEN.

>>9956154
The newest game or some of the crossovers with Capcom might be a better bet for sounds.

>>9956164
You saw the webm last thread with the momentum system thing, right? Besides that I'm working on the thrust frames here, and I'll add a cool little blue swoosh effect on the fists when you're powered up. I'm gonna be doing some further tweaking like sword attacks building a little bit of Blazter energy, and fists building up a little bit of sword power.

And then a bunch of minor little visual and audio things like making the sword power gauge pulse and glow when you're powered up, buffing the hammer, buffing the radius of the cleave effect, and finally changing the throwing axe into a mattock that'll spawn a handful of +1HP health bonuses on hit, the kicker here is they'll vanish after a short time, so you'll want to get into melee to get those heals. Still need to figure out what to do for the chainsaw-tier upgrade, most likely some kinda stab upgrade for both the normal and powered sword.

>>9956167
>MUGEN character ports
That's a good idea, I might just take a look into that if I don't use the sounds I mention below.

>>9956179
I actually grabbed the sound pack from the 2019 Samurai Showdown earlier, I might just use those but I feel like it's cheating a little. Then again I already cheated by using the whip swing sounds from Castlevania Adventure Rebirth for Blaz's chain. I guess I shouldn't be so anal over that shit.

>>9956183
The MUGEN sounds are probably in some weird format that engine needs to run instead of being raw files, but the point is they had to come from somewhere. I'm sure you'll find a way.

>>9956150
Watching the video now, I'm going to be taking notes on it.

>>9956183
>a mattock

Why? Is this a character flavor thing?

>>9956154
>I still gotta find some good sword swooshes and shit
I'm not just sharing this because I just like this gacha game but I actually think this game has some pretty good sound-effects for this kind of stuff.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0369rOXojBQ
Around 1:30 is probably what you're looking for.
There's a google-drive link for it all; I think you can find if you search Limbus Company Sprite Rips.

>>9955541
>>9955542
I've only played the SNES version, but as a kid I could to get to the point where you could play as Venom and then I'd run out of lives shortly after. I'm aware of the Green Jelly stuff which is also good. Much like Doom though, a good chunk of the game's music is heavily inspired by famous late 80s/early 90s riffs. AiC, Pantera, Metallica, etc. Worked well in Doom and MC IMO. I'll have to turn GMOTA's jukebox back on. It kept playing nothing on the first level of a wad, unless I missed something about using it. I didn't look too hard.

>>9956150
>>9956194
I think too many enemies just throw out a shotgun spread of projectiles. They feel samey in that regard.
I like the hoverbike enemy and that flamethrower demon for detonating after death. That can have some fun gameplay uses.
The cyber chaingunner seems too tanky for its potential damage output. Could you give it a defined wind-up? Like a constant vision check for a second or two with a loud noise to alert the player he's about to be fucked up.
The flamethrower zombie seems like it does way too little damage for how short the range on his attack is. His corpse burning for a few seconds after death and causing damage for anything that gets too close would be neat. His attacks could leave somthing like that behind as well. I think Vesper did that with one of its enemies' attacks.
The flying imp looks weird visually. Just give that one different sprites.
I like the SMG zombie. He bridges the gap between chaingunners and regular zombiemen, and can serve as a dangerous hitscanner that doesn't drop a chaingun.
What's the point of the Doom 3 Caco-looking enemy that fires the green projectiles?
I want to see your code for the red zombie, I really like the charge he does.
The brown Hell Knight that dies in 2 SSG shots also feels redundant. It doesn't even have a new attack to make up for its lower health pool. Cacos fill a simiilar role already.
The mini Archvile's tracking fireballs seem cool on its own, but I can't see how that would work with several of them at a time or with more enemies in the mix.
The spectre Hell Knight is cool.
The lava man could also use a pool of fire on its corpse.
What's the difference between the red & green arrows on the archer?
The tentacles are cool, but I think them firing homing projectiles is a little overkill.

>>9956232
I'll reflect upon your commentary, some select answers:
>What's the point of the Doom 3 Caco-looking enemy that fires the green projectiles?
It's a more agile, but weaker caco.
>What's the difference between the red & green arrows on the archer?
Red have limited homing ability - they can turn well enough, but only if they can see you. it's not very obvious on video.

>The cyber chaingunner seems too tanky for its potential damage output. Could you give it a defined wind-up? Like a constant vision check for a second or two with a loud noise to alert the player he's about to be fucked up.
It has the exact behavior of a mastermind, just less health and smaller. It also has a sound, unless I screwed something up again. Maybe it should have a longer windup though, because it's shorter.
>The brown Hell Knight that dies in 2 SSG shots also feels redundant. It doesn't even have a new attack to make up for its lower health pool. Cacos fill a simiilar role already.
I wanted something weaker to pad out the noble horde without infighting them, but it's definitely up there on the chopping block.

Did you release the bestiary any time before? ModDB? If so, would you also like to get featured on OP's rentry page under the mod's section? Say if you want to be credited by your nickname too.

Anyone know the WAD?

It was posted here some time ago but no one had sauce

>>9956265
Not yet, I want to use it in a community project later this summer. If it falls through, I'll just release it stand-alone. If you want to use that demon code, feel free to credit me as ViolentBeetle.
I noticed after copypasting that I altered the monster's melee range, I probably shouldn't have, must've been a leftover from one of my experiments.

>Wanted to do another map with Otex textures

It's always been PB's problem that it's the kitchen sink type of "shove everything they can find in and call it a new mod" mods.

Or at least that's one of PB's problems.

>>9956432
if the devs implemented the ability to toggle all spawns like you can in platinum, i`d enjoy it way more desu.
don`t even get me started on hxrtc.

>>9956416
Archie like attack is something mbf21 didn't really cover, best I can think of is a massive stack of hitscan with no spread.

>>9956463
Not exactly an Archvile attack, but something that charges up with line of sight.

>>9956143
working on my first doom map still

Finished knee deep in knee deep in zdoom. That was a pretty fun wad

>>9956464
Like it actually adds up whenever you see it? Or just a very long wind up?

>>9955173
No, I like rough pixels

>>9956497
A long windup, but I suppose you could use several functions for it that each perform a vision check. Then play the TF2 heavy's windup sound.

>>9956497
>>9956502
Charge1:
SPRITE A 10 A_PlaySound("SOUND", 0)
SPRITE A 0 A_JumpIfTargetInSight(Charge2)
Goto See
Charge2:
SPRITE A 10 A_PlaySound("SOUND", 0)
SPRITE A 0 A_JumpIfTargetInSight(Charge3)
Goto See
Charge3:
SPRITE A 10 A_PlaySound("SOUND", 0)
SPRITE A 0 A_JumpIfTargetInSight(Missile)
Goto See

Something like that, for example.

>>9956502
I will increase superchaingunner's wind up because he isn't hindered by mastermind's size. It already makes sound of one of quake 2 enemies, so that's covered.

>>9956505
"Charge1" should be "Missile" in this example, I wasn't thinking of how it would actually begin.

>>9956505
That's just spid refire with extra steps.

>>9956508
Well in that case, ignore me. I didn't even know about that action.

>>9956510
Spid and cpos refire is how spiders and chaingunners know when to not shoot stack of it during the windup would abort it when target is not in sight. Those jumps are potentially useful if you want to limit their field of vision, direct them to something that isn't chase frame on failure or have them initiate attack without chase code pointer.

there are any tutorials or some shit to learn more about DECOHACK?

>>9956525
Doom tools page has reasonable explanation. The rest is scattered between dehacked, boom, mbf and mbf21 specs. Zdoom wiki has code on all vanilla monsters that is in zscript, but basically the same thing, so you can check how they work.

>>9956143
I added a tiny replica of Millbank prison to my map as a shoutout to one of the inspirations for this project. and maybe as a teaser for map03 I haven't decided yet

Finished my first pistol start UV playthrough of Doom II. After Tricks and Traps the game started to feel like a chore. By the time I reached the living end I was just throwing myself at it until I mercifully reached the exit. Please tell me it gets better from here.

>>9956579
The Living End is the second to last map.

What are your thoughts on PBR parallax textures?

Do they suffer from the "looks like vaseline" syndrome of most upscaled shit, or do they actually look decent?

>>9956583
As in playing further doom content.

>>9956143
Turns out part of the problem was the format being GZDoom (Hexen) and not UFMD or whatever it's called.
But now i can make the kind of map i wanted:
>Inspired by the Cultist Base from Eternal
>Using OTEX textures and a few vanilla ones
>Using MetaDoom's features and the fire traps on Realm667 by Captain Toenail

>>9956405
>>begin feeling that the vanilla SSG would be completely useless after obtaining the rocket launcher if it wasn`t for the difference in ammunition and self-damage
That’s a very fair thought. Is it your awareness and understanding of Doom’s mechanics that is “spreading”?

>>9956586
Doom 2 is the peak.

>1024×1024-sized area restriction wads
Did you like them?

WIP for the waifu project.

>>9956585
Maps need to be completely built with PBR shit in mind for it to look good. That floor needs a trim texture between it and the wall so that the 'grout' doesn't appear to sink below it. You're also generally going to need an overall higher level of geometry detail for shit to not look silly.

>>9956603
I prefer 2048 maps.

>>9956605
You promised to dedicate it to the purple alicorn, buddy, what's the deal?

>>9956592
i did not understand the complaints about bloat i seen here in the past, now the desire to do the same is spreading to me like a plague. i`m still retarded though.

Holy shit this is so much better. Thanks.

Ace, are barrels supposed to be so heavy I can't drag them? I could a few days ago.

Just downloaded latest version of GZdoom to see what the myhouse thing is all about. Is there any way to easily copy all my graphics/control settings etc. or do I have to manually go through it all?

>>9956652
just drag and drop the myhouse wad into the gzdoom exe

>>9956653
I know how to play a wad, I just had to get a new version of gzdoom and am asking if there's a way to copy all my old settings quickly (ie undo all the shitty default filtering shit mainly)

>>9956658
i believe gzdoom stores its setting files elsewhere, so it should transfer?

Mechanically, it doesn't really seem to do anything interesting, but it works.

>>9956645
Yeah, but they shouldn't be THAT heavy. I increased their mass because the explosions would push them around like a pinball. I'll check it out later just in case.

>>9956519
pervert!

Are there are any joke wads that are actually humorous and not just shitposting in doom map format?

>>9956143
Merula map is going slowly but steadily and is nearing completion. This is my first map so I'm just cramming in my favorite concepts in there.

>>9956585
Haven't encountered one for vanilla textures that have ALL of the textures done, and not through the automated shit.

Also figured out what irks me the wrong way in Boltgun. They don't use low resolution textures. They use regular res textures but paint them with "pixels" and end up combining into textures with pixels of different sizes.
Pretty damn sure same thing is with sprites as well which is why they look so messy.

>>9956679
I think they changed the config file location, it should be in documents/my games, try to place your old config file there

>>9956679
you can put your config file inside the gzdoom folder and then launch it with "-config filename.ini"

>>9956610
Wasn't me.

>>9956605
Wait a minute, that's not Twi! Who is she? Rainbow Dash?

>>9956692

Made a shortcut with the launch option, thanks lads

Has anyone ever made a FiberDemon enemy that steals your fiber and makes you constipated, or is that unexplored territory ?

>>9956676
He's not really flinching here, though I used flich sprite as a base. I was shooting to wake him up behind invisible wall.
What it really does is an approximation of teleportation through stacking of zero length chase effects.

I made a webm to better showcase this effect. I might scrap it if I can't reduce the short dash occurrences.

>>9956686
>Pretty damn sure same thing is with sprites as well which is why they look so messy.
there is a pixelization slider in the "retro" section in the settings.
i think. i tried it out and uninstalled it soon after release.

>>9956697
Seems we'll be getting two pony maps by different people, because I never mentioned Twilight. The fun has been doubled!

>>9956734
That's just resolution scaling, and that affects whole screen.
By the boltgun sprite you can see that it is a texture issue, not the screen scaling one.

>>9956746
There is also one in the retro section that fucks specifically with the sprites.

>>9956754
Not really
Retro Palette is just posterization filter
Pixelation is just and nearest neighbour resolution scaler

Don't see anything that would be specific to sprites.

>>9956738
>The fun has been doubled
Hm... This makes me wonder how one would pull off a map with her. She has alter ego thing going on with her that can make it tricky to properly claim the map.

>>9956779
my bad then, i guess. i just remember there being two resolution/pixelation/some other shit sliders in two different menu sections.

>>9956519
She's still warm… but, is there a working hole left?

>>9956812
He has a blaster. Could just make a new one.

A lot times waifus are just girls we really like, that's it. Some might joke about it, and some might be serious. Some use the term carelessly.
My actual waifu isn't Outis, I just like her a lot.

>>9956930
I think if I were to do a crusher trap like that again I'd probably not have so many bunched together.
also that green armour secret is just accessed via a wall you can open right next to it

>>9956961
This one? Because I can't open this wall

>>9956968
I realise the issue, there's a gap there but the doorway is made of two doors that should both open each other. I'm just a retard and forgot to link them.

how wish Serious Sam was more like Quak-

>>9956198
Yeah. I'd like to picture a Dwarf gives him this thing.
I plan on making a voxel of the Mattock to serve as a reference for the sprites in memory of Slax. We had talked in the past about how I should learn how to do basic 3D modelling to help with references. While I can't navigate Blender very well, I still want to make something to use for this, and I'm pretty confident I can figure out a voxel editor.

There's gonna be growing pains and whiplash from all this, but seeing as the sword power up happens so quickly during combat, I'm pretty sure it's going to surprise most people.

>>9955653

I’m on board with the most recent changes even after going through with the original version I got into so keep steering on ahead homie, this’ll be fun.

gorillion dollar idea, jot this down:
wad (more likely pk3) that you can load with any wad to make it haunted. it plays normal for the most part except it'll randomly make things le spooky. you know, to emulate that ARG shit zoomers are into. think of "no cap gmod singleplayer is so spooky ong" but for doom

You're better downloading the original files and using a source port like notblood, raze or BuildGDX as for why you have no music I don't know honestly, Fresh Supply has the music so it should be there.

>>9957050
Alright I got it. Managed to make it work with a_explode nails.

Is D_RUNNIN forever destroyed? I played Industrial Zone again, and was unsettled all time.

>>9957123
Yeah the files are there but the music in the levels is not playing except in the first one (E1) and it also plays in the carnival but it's very loud (loud only in the carnival, not in the first level) and I have no fucking idea why it behaves like this. Tried reinstalling the game, verifying game files, playing with config, but it's just sound effects and ambience.

I have NotBlood but I wanted to play with the real 3D aim for once. Fucking Fresh Supply.

>>9957183
How'd you make the DIY weapon? (if you dont mind)
It looks cool

>>9957240
it's a stick of rattan wrapped with tape, the basket hilt was something I made by carving out pieces out of a blue plastic barrel and then lashing that with parachute coard. Currently I use the stick on the right in pic related with a solid ABS plastic molded basket hilt, but it fucking popped off two weeks ago so I can't fight with it.
The sword on the left I've actually used a reference for some of the animations on the Blackjack in Combined_Arms.

map progress, shaded area I've not really started on beyond elevations

Still workin on my doom map, experimented around in slightly adjusting some doom textures and making them work in vanilla doom. Going for a heavy metal blood and red kinda nightmarish vibe. Messing around with making some of marble textures purple too.

I wont spend too long on trying to make it look cool since its my first doom map and I should focus on making gameplay good but I got bored and wanted to focus on doing something else

Sure, finding ways around the shape of your chosen character is part of the fun in this project.
Make sure we can still somewhat tell who you chose from a screenshot of the automap/editor.

>>9957610
I'm not sure how to get to the third secret, and through testing I found the deep water effect in the shadowy part of the ship is bugged and the deep water has a metal "ceiling" that's visible when you fall and bounce. The teleport in the water is only usable once for each linedef. Didn't notice anything else.

The map was challenging enough in its arena sections, and the flow of the movement was well signposted, especially for the yellow door and the cyberdemon survival. The second secret and ending was great.

>>9957610
Nice map!
Taihou is hot as fuck.

When is the waifu project release?

I'm making a map of k***n for the waifu project and nobody can stop me.
It's gonna be the smallest map there ever was.

the blade part of the scythe is ready (the general shape and the floor texture that is. Walls, ceilings and things are another beast).

i cant contribute to the waifu project because im gay and only into anthros

>>9957763
>I'm not sure how to get to the third secret
it's actually meant to be an archvile jump using the guy who appears after the yellow keycard, but its really hard to pull off since you have to lure him towards the boat
i'll probably rework that so its easier or something

Great map, I like your arenas design, and while it can get a little hard at some point, I guess it is at least fair and not bullshit difficulty.
10/10 bedroom secret, I kinda regret not mandating an exit bedroom in all maps. Yours is really great
And I guess with such a project I should have seen it coming, but try to keep your image blue-board usable. Your computer textures are ok, but you really went full horn on your ending textures. They are technically ok too, but try to beat one off before choosing your textures, guys. With such sources, I fear for the Olga Discordia map

> quit low aggro copper sounds without enemies thanks

>>9957357
Protip: When you're finished laying out the map, join sectors.
Joining means that you can "share" the sector properties between different, not even necessarily adjacent, sectors, treating them as one. For example with symmetric and repeating structures that can bring the sector count way down.
The caveat here is though that it will only work with sectors that are of the same height values, otherwise it will force the settings of one sector on the other.
Also, since the joined sectors are treated as one, the sound propagation will work accordingly, so keep that in mind, too.
This is even used by mappers to make monster teleports:
A monster is placed in a closet and then the sectors are joined, and then when something in the one sector happens, the monster will hear it and activate and walk the teleport line.
This makes you forego the old-tyme style of sound ducts, which is mostly a matter of taste in unrestricted maps, but becomes essential for line-limited mapping projects.

>>9958415
Cool, thanks, never heard of it but I really like the art design actually, compared to all other non-Doom games of 1993 I'd even say gorgeous

>>9957689
i get it, progression like that is fun, i am just really obsessing over different weapons having their own unique roles, especially after beginning to try and figure out a mod of my own. really makes me understand and appreciate more condensed arsenal of demonsteele. except for the scorpions, they still suck.

>>9958531
Demonsteele is a strange example because the weapons are less about roles and more which one has more ammo, and if it's the shotgun, use the shotgun because the grenade launcher is less fun to use than the sword. But otherwise I get you. I think on my own mod/game a lot and while I love Serious Sam, I don't think I'd have it Serious Sam style of 9 weapons, at least four of which are useless in the endgame.

>>9958357
>With such sources, I fear for the Olga Discordia map
No worries. I'm not a fan of the 'canon' so to speak. Prefer Olga in something more serious but with dark fantasy/warfare. She works well as a protagonist/deuteragonist.

How do I open ACS file? I want to do a monster replacer for War Rooster and I want certain enemies to drop certain type of ammo.

>>9958559
Grenade launcher can fuck with enemy projectiles so there's utility there, shotgun you can basically fucking fly across the map using.

C-can we talk about Serious Sam 3 here?

>>9958653
No dice, 2011 game.

>>9958654
Oh..

>>9958559
i felt pretty differently about most of shihong`s guns desu.
like, the jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none starter, the slow heavy hitting single target shotgun, the limited range AOE grenades, all fairly unique compared to each other. if she had hae-lin`s SMG, the arsenal would be complete.
though if the grenades were more noticeably weaker than the shotgun it`d probably be for the best.

good luck btw. i was never nearly deep into SS meta to move past the idea that the grenade launcher is just worse than the rocket launcher, so figuring out an arsenal like that is really impressive imo.

>>9958582
if there is no source code included, you gotta find a decompiler of sorts. i never seen one, but you never know.

HELP ME DUKE

After having plowed my way through most of Doom 2 on this replay (no mid map saving) I have to say that I don't dislike most of the maps nearly as much as I remember disliking them. The city maps are a god-awful slog though, especially because a few of them are back to back. The Chasm still sucks and so does that terrible level where most of the level is covered in toxic sludge and you have to go around it hunting for the switches. Still, I have to hand it to Id Software for playing around with different ambushes and gimmicks, even if some of the maps ended up horribly tedious.

I've noticed that I enjoy 'gimmick' maps more when they're relatively short.

So in short, I think I'm going to be coming out of this replay more positive about Doom 2 than I was going in. The expanded bestiary also helps to make it more interesting. It's a good palate cleanser before going back to custom wads.

Haha, this is pretty great artwork.

As an aside : what are the best wild west / old west themed mods for Doom or for a build engine shooter? Bonus if there's actual levels made for them, not just a gameplay mod. Or if the mod comes with environment textures that can be used to make my own old west adventure.

I already know Outlaws the game exists but I'm looking for the best Build Engine / Doom mods in particular.

>>9956615
>now the desire to do the same is spreading to me like a plague.
Ah, I thought you were appreciating the balance difference between the super shotgun and rocket launcher. Bloat can suck ass and can deter me from a mod, just like it does with mods like PB.
>>9957689
>I think it's fine if weapons become obsoleted as better weapons appear.
This progression works best and is a lot of fun if there’s at least an episodic reset, if not on a per level basis.

Is everyone here from NA? The thread always dies during NA's night

>>9958839
There's a fair amount of yuros.

>>9957907
we're still getting a certain show's cartoon horse or two and a brown shota, anon
even husbandos get in

>>9957610
just linking your map to the news post >>9954962

>>9958582
Compiled files? No idea, but as the other anon said, a decompiler of some sorts would be necessary.

>>9958475
>Wtf is that hud. Also I never found that ring at that part.

that's one of the 'modern' UIs from ironwail.

>>9958839
majority is probably NA.
i browse dota general in /vg/. dota is pretty dead in NA, its more popular in EU, SEA, etc. but the thread has a lot of NA people in it, probably around 50%

here its probably a lot higher.

Here is my UV FDA for your map : https://files.catbox.moe/s68m72.lmp

The gameplay was not good until you got to the SSG, as there was no armor to get through the many hitscanners in a timely manner, they always do tons of damage because you have to fight them in big open spaces with a shotgun, making it impossible not to get damaged; armor and a chaingun would be great to place at the start.
The cyberdemon valley is too punishing; I suggest having 3 medikits after the fight to fully replenish HP of heavily wounded players, to make the next areas not feel unfair.
There was a missed opportunity to have a teleporter in the exit room to go back to start, for exploration. I wanted to find the secrets.

There are gate middle textures slightly sunken in the ground near the beginning, making it visibly bleed through the floor on software renderers; give them shadows to fix that.
In the yellow key switch room, the dark water passage has STARTAN2 visible.

>>9958942
thanks for the demo & feedback.
>teleporter in the exit room to go back to start, for exploration
I did consider this as I like them too. This is my second map, and my first map (devcleanup.zip on idgames) does feature one. I'll add it.
>armor and a chaingun
i'll add some armor bonuses (theres a green armor secret) but i'm confused about the cg. you get it from the chaingunner who teleports behind you. do you think thats too late, or would you rather not have the gun tied to combat?
>gate midtextures
yeah i intentionally wanted them embedded into the ground, accepting the side effect of bleedthroughs. i didnt realise (though i should have) it was preventable with sectors, thanks.
the piece of paper at the start with taihou also bleeds like this, but i thought that was fine since it makes more of the pic visible without making the texture stand too tall relative to the player.

i'll work on the other stuff you mentioned too.

The Scorpions needed to just auto fire when you held the button, burst fire needs to GTFO.

>>9958582
Editable ACS files would usually be in a Source folder. You can compile them in SLADE if you have an extension for it. It'll be the blue arrow button.

Man, i cant find a good texture to fit her hair color

>>9959019
Here is the progress so far, still missing the torso (i apologize in advance for the textures, they dont look too good in game)

>>9959062
Holy shit
Looking good

>>9959062
Holy shit, this looks clean and sick as hell.

>>9959062
Holy shit

>>9958989
The reason why I think the chaingun is given too late is because the chaingunner is unreliable to kill with a regular shotgun, sometimes it doesn't die in one shotgun blast and it leaves you out in the open to get pelted by him while the shotgun reloads.
Then by the time you reach the long range turret zombies in the next encounter you can run out of bullets, forcing to take further damage to get in an effective range for the shotgun; make sure to supply the player with more bullets as well.

>>9958839
Lots of Americans here, but there's also some different Euros, from the most western parts to the most eastern, even a couple from west Asia.

>>9959062
Looks very goddamn good. I'd say that the texture for her hair is workable.

Man playing other wads makes me realize my first map is gonna be shit. Halfway through Plutonia and its a masterpiece. Everything is so simple yet so elegant. I just need to finish it and quit over thinking everything and constantly adding new shit instead of just finishing the map. God aligning all these textures is going to take forever too.

>>9959125
>Man playing other wads makes me realize my first map is gonna be shit
the start of every artistic endevour is going to be shit, you just have to eat it up and continue working until you make stuff you feel proud of!

Also, in 3d mode, you can press A to auto align, Shift A to align vertically, Shift click to select all of the textures of the same name, i hope these can help.

>>9959125
just take care of your texture alignments.

>>9959136
>you can press A to auto align, Shift A to align vertically, Shift click to select all of the textures of the same name, i hope these can help.
should be noted you gotta unpeg lower or upper half the time for texture alignment to do what you want

Arcanum was cool up until the final encounter - as usual for stuff made by Tronyn, but its penultimate level has hidden one secret too well for my patience (I hate spending as much time noclipping thru the map as I did beating it).

>>9959136
>Shift A to align vertically
oh nonononono, I was doing it manually for years
what the fuck

>>9959002
>The Scorpions needed to just auto fire when you held the button, burst fire needs to GTFO.
That's a pretty easy thing to fix, hell you could give it a toggle to go from burst, full auto and fuller auto.

We were robbed!

>>9959258
noo not the toys noooo

Guys zoomer here. I never played the half life series and want to try it. What should I play? I tried to search online by myself but I'm making confusion on what to download to play hl1. There are several engines and I cant understand the differences. I want a vanilla experience so no black mesa pls.

>>9959258
>toys

grow up, faggot.

I want that shambler

>>9959260
there's a half life demo called uplink. play that one first.

>>9959137
literally this, bad texture alignment sticks out like a sore thumb and can change a great amateur map into newbie garbage

>>9959125
just dont waste your time attempting doomcute, make your wad fun before going autistic on "detail"

>>9959258
I want a Ranger figure.

>>9959172
>I hate spending as much time noclipping thru the map as I did beating it.
At that point I'm pulling up a walkthrough, my time spent noclipping would be better spent on playing through other levels. Even then, 100% completion is only reserved for levels or episodes I absolutely love.

>you can use Displacement to stealthily inject enemies with Stims to kill them with heart attacks

I fucking love this mod.

I think Super MAYhem 17 had a map using 2 different skyboxes because it'd use a different sky if you went to the final area, as if it was a different world?
What other wads or mapsets do that?
Is it difficulty to make a map with more than one sky just to create the illusion of going through different worlds?

>>9959260
Same zoomie here, I git cloned and started compiling this https://github.com/FWGS/hlsdk-portable.. I'm also downloading a 7 seas version of steam halflife 1, am i good?

>>9959286
Also, weirdest fucking thing, I use the airburst on the rocket launcher to fire into this room, at the wall above where I'm aiming here, it makes GZDoom shit itself and close without any error messages. Normal rockets and grenades fired at the same place work fine, but airburst for either? Nope.

>>9959286
Fucking kek. Completely accidental (and mostly useless) strat. I love it when different features can be combined in unintended ways.

>>9959258
Doesn't that Shambler look heckin' fuzzy like my tubers on twitter say it should be!?

>>9959332
Oh shit. Name of map and XY pos of spot? I'll check it out.

>>9959336
It's a little tricky with only four seconds, distance and aiming, and I kinda wish I didn't have to doubletap Use, but it fucking works. Super excited to see how many Super Stims and Zerks it takes to kill the big guys. These are no longer healing and buff items, they are tools of assassination.

>>9959348
It's E1M5 in the first Doom, right outside the normal blue door.

>>9959260
>I want a vanilla experience so no black mesa pls.
They're different games, so I don't know why you would even consider it. Seconding >>9959265 though: try Uplink to see if you actually want to play Half-Life.

>fuzzy
it's been confirmed by sandy petersen the shambler is pure albino muscle with literally zero body hair, not even the fuzzy peach-like hairs some women have, nada, zero follicules.

>>9959436
also, all the vores are females, this was confirmed by Romero on twitter a few years ago. The instruction manual referring to vores as "he" is a typo.
