>Does Year Zero imply that it's a prequel?
Apparently, "Year Zero" is an actual term referring to antichrist. To how he will destroy all history, culture, calendar and all that. Now that sounds like something closer to Eternal's sequel.
It's also worth noting that those are old Microsoft documents. Somewhere from 2020, I believe. Plans have definitely shifted. Although it's not surprising that id Software is sticking to their most popular franchise instead of doing something different.

Still keen to get a bit more feedback on my shooter. I know the graphics are basic, but keen to hear feedback on other parts of the game like level design, movement, gunplay etc. I'm taking all feedback into consideration as I keep working on the game.

Not sure about a retro spin-off like Postal Brain Damaged or Boltgun because old Doom and even Quake have a lot of stuff that can fill that niche.
I think it's better if later Doom games are their own take in the series and maybe some people mod those games' features in GZDoom or Quake.
Unless people want a "retro" Doom game to still have its own new features just to "canonize" concepts seen in mods.

trigger fights after the player has entered the room
spawn enemies behind the player so retreating to cheese a fight is harder
place sniper enemies farther away that require getting out in the open to kill
use monster blocking lines so that enemies don't easily conga line into a door the player can hide behind
if all else fails lock the player in to a pit or close the door behind them and make them press some switches behind enemies in order to progress
with how fast doomguy moves you won't be able to cheese-proof every single fight

Ok, seriously though, you can do a lot of things to make give monsters several paths to ruin player's day. For example, open the closet that connects two segments.

Less than I would like, but still recovering. I managed to get two friends to (mostly) play the whole wad w/out pistol starts, and I'm going through the notes I've taken while they played. The only thing that was obvious (and was already mentioned in previous feedback) while watching them is that a BFG in map01 is weird and that the Madoka map might need to go further down the maplist as it was significantly harder for them than the maps around it.
That, and I still need to tinker with the Intermission midi volume, as I played a bit with Anvil Studio but forgot to do what I downloaded it for.

They say in their page that there's gonna be some of that still for people who look for it but it's not gonna be as central to the game.

So, as last thread there was this post that put SS2 in a bad light, let me elaborate why I think it's the best sam.

First of all, the artstyle. You might not like the cartoon-ish style, but imo it gives the whole game a lot of charm. It's eyecatching, different and clearly SS2 the moment you see a screenshot. Also this style is very much underrepresented in the genre. There is also a lot more variation in the visuals, given the fact that you travel from world to world.

Second, the gameplay. Might just be me, but I always thought that SS2 let's you take a more aggressive approach to combat that the other games. Given how powerful your weapons are, you can push more often than you have to run. And for really bad moments, you got the serious bomb that cleans your screen for you.

Third, the weapons. The spinning shotgun, the dual uzis, the plasmagun, the canon. All feel great to use and have a cool artstyle if you ask me. And the double barrel is my favorite double barrel of any FPS out there. Chonky, awesome looking, all around amazing.

Sorry if I sound to fanboy-ish, but I can't help it. I really really like Sam 2 and it always hurts me to see how much people seem to hate it. Ramble over.

I'm an outlier among Samheads; I really enjoy SS3's tone and mood. It's very serious, bordering on gritty, very bloody, and I enjoy the visuals a lot too. The guns feel and sound meaty, it has my favorite cannon rendition and my favorite rocket launcher, etc. To be quite desu I haven't even finished 2 but there's nothing wrong with it at all.

Not that anon but that really galls me personally. You should see some of the SS4 critiques that call for more SS2 visuals when SS4 didn't go as far as it could with its own concepts of an alien occupied Earth. I'll still play whatever Croteam or Timelock does for Sam next. I don't know if you know this, but there actually was a bona fide SS2 remake in Serious Engine 4 in the works before Croteam for some reason canned it. Multiple maps were already made. It looked pretty good. Makes you hope Timelock has picked up the pieces.

One thing I dislike about the v1.3 revamp is that they changed the AlienSmartGun in a way it no longer looks quasi-organic and its projectile is now affected by gravity from the start (instead of behaving like a grenade only after contact with a solid surface), making it no longer a funky equivalent to the BFG but a bizarre BFGrenade Launcher of all things I can think of (if you ever played the Unseen beta, you'd get what I mean) as its projectiles behave more like a Q2's BFG10k plasma ball able to bounce than ordinary grenades

Yes, I'm in the minority that finds this style charming I guess. Be it in Rise of the Triad, Witchaven or the King Arthur based FPS that I can't meantion here from last year. There is something charming about it. It has this "low budget" vibe, like they couldn't affort any animators. Like a relict from a different time where there was no unity asset store, no blender so you can throw something together. A time where people needed to be creative to get something out there. I would never say that it's my prefered artstyle, but every now and then I find it charming. A reminder of old times.

Honestly it's been a good few months since I last looked so I can't remember the cool new features. :( If I can remember what they were I'll let you know, now I sound like a 'tard lol

I had no idea there were fixes that were still applicable to current Xash. I remember the only way to get "fixed" lighting (really just a decent band-aid fix) was to turn on "studio lighting" which was this weird per-pixel lighting system that got removed as it kept continually breaking as more commits rolled in. The dream is to have all of the following working simultaneously:

• Multitexturing / Detail textures (currently breaks overbrights)
• Overbrights (breaks multitexturing)
• Working UI scaling. Currently it breaks the autoaim reticle. I use autoaim 'cause the reticle changes look cool despite autoaim making my aim worse.
• Software-like water OR water multitexturing. Software water has never worked in HW renderers and likely never will, and it's incompatible with waves which are used often in the latter half of the game. Multitextured water would make HL's ugly HW water a little more passable I think.

The other route would’ve been “digitizing” shots of toys, models, or even real guns. That’s how an overwhelming amount of Doom’s most memorable content was created. I’m sure they realized even back then how much ass it sucks drawing all those enemy angles entirely by hand.
It was also a huge help that Adrian Carmack is unfathomably talented as an artist.

The redundant part was more focused on modern retro fps. If you aren't goint strickly for the sprite look, it's easier to just use the 3d render. The "sprite-fication" was a means to lower hardware taxation.

For me, GZDoom has a... thing where if a bunch of sound channels overlap at once, there's an immense stutter. You have to limit dynamic range both on your PC and in the game's options, and switch out an archaic .dll file pertaining to sound in the game files. Forgot the specifics, but it is 1000% related to sound rather than optimization in the standard sense.
Anyway, Selaco has a lot of fucking overlapping sounds because each gib makes noise, and its demo doesn't let you limit sound range in the options.

Okay with fancier versions of GZDoom, you can use overlays, which let you have other weapon actions at the same time. But with older versions of ZDoom/Zandronum, I'm stuck with using the A_GunFlash function, that's normally used for muzzleflashes and stuff, but you can use it for whatever the hell you want, really.

So the most simple way I can describe this is the flash state is called on, and it waits to see when the player hits the zoom button, at which point it jumps to a new state to whip out the stun gun and fire it.

The CodeRed SP build from 2003/4 (before it got retooled into a Q3A clone with UT2004-style air dodging), the addon maps seen here are much better structured than the main campaign I must say, and the extra monsters and allies are the main reason for it.

Just finished it and MAP06 stood above all preceding it by playing on its streghts nicely, final map was pretty short n' easy but still very fine. Set is strewn with formularic design choices but in contrast has very polished aesthetics with precise boom script shenanigans which always go well with tomb raiding theme. It'd make sense if the author was time pressured, in which case I think I would've prefered a couple of little bigger maps rather than a collection of the same, with less tame action setups which will rough me up in interesting and surprising ways you know.

Recommended non-imposing set with rare use of mediterranean music to blast the demons to, impressive venture for a first-time mapper.

I played this map the first time you posted it but I forgot to leave feedback. Overall I enjoyed it, but I think the archviles next to the circular lava pits feel kind of lazy. Neither the one behind the cacos or the hell knights are remotely threatening since you can just spam rockets around where they spawn and you have better archvile encounters before and after. Even if you just removed the viles I feel like it'd improve the map by reducing tedium.
Also, on map 21 you can jump out of bounds through a window right by the exit switch. You'll just die, but it might be worth preventing since I thought it was a secret at first. No complaints otherwise, I like how it felt ammo scarce.

Aside from some jokes that fall more than flat on their face, the game is fine. Quite good even, at times. Really starts to get boring and drag during the military and fantasy planets, though. Thankfully picks right back up for the last planet but then fucks up with a shitty ass final boss at the end.

I was about to write a post about why some anons here dislike SS2, but this sums it up. If you're familiar with the other games, getting into SS2 is hard, since everything seems like a mess, but those unfamiliar with the series or play it super casually won't care about that.

you don't need map sources to recompile light. but lightmap resolution is tied to texture resolution.

Synthetik mod still underway, a few more weapons need sprites and the vanilla items, with help from ripped assets and 3d models. Then maybe 3 more starting pistols and recharging class items, and finally that damn reload progress bar
One issue I've found is giving an enemy a Powerup it already has causes a VM abort related to EndEffect()
and attaching a dynamic light to a pickup causes the first pickup's light to linger permanently while each pickup thereafter has its light disappear with it when picked up, don't know what's up with that

His nostalgia milking isn't as bad as Scott Miller's though. Still, such approach feels more-or-less forced and disingenuous. Less "I perish those past experiences", more "this is a marketing tool & valuable asset for me".

look at the clock bitch it's conjecture time

What is the absolute most you could buff each unit in the Doom II roster, while keeping every single existing slaughter map still completely beatable?
Example 1: Every Imp now throws Baron fireballs. Does this render any existing map literally impossible to win? If not, it counts. If so, what's the maximum amount of damage that remains fair in the worst case scenario?
Example 2: Spider Masterminds now always prioritize you over whatever they're infighting with, if you're visible. Does this make any infighting gimmick maps impossible? If not, it counts. If so, what alterations to Mastermind infighting mechanics wouldn't break something?
Stuff like that.

weapon/player only, the weapons have 1-1 clip size, fire rate, and reload speed of their original counterparts with only the damage and projectile speed set to something that makes sense for their doom role. Not thinking of adding overheating or jamming because the reloads are already long and the SSG especially can get you killed. But it still kills mid tiers with one burst and it's better at long fights after adding the stacking on-kill bonuses

Interesting, not one of those click bait videos mentioned it was old. Though, I do think that the game if it were something to do with the antichrist it would be a prequel.
Eternal seems to show the aftermath.

Speaking of antichrist, what I always found interesting is the fact that in one of the levels you're in the Arctic or Antarctic there's a big temple or city there where there's major excavation by a major cultic guy who is harvesting blood and doing experiments on people, fusing living things, including people, with technology.

I think that if you're going to upgrade things like damage or rate of fire it probly makes more sense to switch to another weapons
although I can see why nobody ever does this. if you switch out a weapon too early the player barely gets to use it, if you do it too late the player barely gets to use the new one.
most boomer shooters already suffer from the later where guns are introduced too late into the game so having weapon upgrades on top of that would only mean less time using each one.

[Anonymous No.10272245]

No, I mean an upgrade is a new set of variables for increased stats and a new sprite to show your gun is now cooler. Ditching a weapon in favour of a new one (which is gonna fill the same role and even keep the same weapon slot) is also just changing some variables and making a new sprite. There's no difference between the two.

My intention is to grant the player and monsters buffs and debuffs to their attacks taking into account a log of previous attacks used by the player and monsters inside a predetermined invisible area that surrounds Doomguy. Think of it like a circle in old King of the hill game modes, where Doomguy is always at the center of it. Pic related. I'd keep track of all the attacks used by Doomguy and the Imp inside the "circle" but not the Cacodemon's to do combat damage math.
