Somehow I unintentionally managed to cheese this section by exiting it quickly via the way I came from before the scripted doors trapped me inside, the ammounts of monsters spawning inside this chamber dipped the game down to single-digit FPS if I dared to look at their general direction.
I wanted to use all of my leftover Multi-Grenades for mopping up everything that didn't autogib itself when the monsters ran out of teleporting space, but the TomeOfPower-boosted MGs appatently create a custom particle effect that doesn't exist yet - causing a CTD whenever they do explode immediately on impact with mobs and don't get allowed to scatter into bomblets.

You'll see more of that: Atari, Apogee, Black Isle Studios... Despite all odds, brands hold as much (if not more) nostalgic value as games themselves. Legal technicality, current reputation and employees matter only when it's convenient for the conversation. Like how people still grieve over Raven and fall for Apogee's gaslighting,
Would've mentioned Interplay too, but I believe it's still the same legal entity from way back in a day unlike aforementioned examples of new or different parties who bought the brand.
Perhaps one day, people will stop falling for "authentic company" meme.

I'm not a fan of Downtown, but I will die on the hill to defend Chasm. It's so fucking memorable exactly because of the reasons people bring up against it. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I certainly enjoy it every time.

Then again, I think Sandy is underrated as a mapper and a person anyway. Man doesn't deserve all the shit people give him. He was very much creative in his design and we can thank him for bringing Cthulu to the mainstream (in a good way). Good guy, love him.

I think the problem with a Half-Life project would be that the game's strongest piece isn't it's combat. The thing that makes Half-Life so good is the enviroment, the atmosphere and the setpieces.
Sure, you remember surface tension for it's action, but also for it's setpiece. Same with On a rail or even Xen. I don't know if we would get a cohesive project together. That's why most Half-Life mods are done by a smaller group or single person, so everyone knows the full picture of what you wish to achieve.

You don't "just need to come up with a snazzy title," there needs to be someone willing to commit to leading the project, organizing everything, compiling people's maps into a complete package, playtesting, offering advice with the editor, and actually knowing his way around the engine. Naturally, it should be the people who suggest these things in the first place like this dumbshit >>10305276 who decided to prance in here and start lamenting everyone for making maps that aren't for his favowite game, but as always, he won't do anything because his mapping resume consists of jack and shit and he has zero leadership skills to speak of. That doesn't even get into how niche of an interest Shadow Warrior has as a game, how small of a turnout a project like that would even get. Need I remind you that 500ml of /vr/ is 6 maps and 4 of them are by the project lead? That's 3 unique contributors. (Technically, there was a 4th contributor, but what matters is results, and because his map got canned, it may as well not exist.)
/vr/ isn't a project dispenser. You can't just say "there should be a Quake project, and it should be called Violent Rumble!" and then have everyone posting simultaneously stop what they're doing to make one. You get the ball rolling by being a leader and putting in actual, substantial WORK - which none of you have done. I'm not AGAINST the idea of a Shadow Warrior project, don't get me wrong - I'm only letting you know that you people constantly saying "there should be an X project" are just a bunch of pussies who do nothing and want other people to make your wishes come true for you, and until you change this part of who you are, there will be none of these projects - especially not Shadow Warrior.

[Anonymous No.10306758]

AVP Classic Gold's marine campaign was really interesting. It went away from the arena based levels and even removed weapons coming with you between levels for a more intense and action experience. I saved ammo like a derp a lot of the time, when it costed me a lot of valuable time in retries. The way that enemies just come out of nowhere and you have to use your motion sensors to find them also adds to the tension and unique experience: there's only two real "arenas" to fight enemies in, the rest are narrow halls and you gotta be careful with your aim and detection.
It can get bullshit but that really does further the tension of the campaign. This isn't SH level of horror of "it's scary on an aesthetic/informational level but the gameplay itself is fine", but rather actually scary because you fear getting jumped by a face hugger or an alien.
Critique: it could have used some more varied environments. The plants were cool. I saw the predator had jungles and the alien had ruins, I would have loved to see that as the Marine. The pulse rifle is way too good and I never needed to use other guns, I think the later aliens should have come earlier to force me to use my weapons. Your speed should have been lowered: I often dodge aliens, which is kinda ridiculous in both story and tone, because you're clearly not meant to bunny hop from them. Your walk should be your run, but give you more ways to deal with enemies approaching you.
Other than that, it's pretty fun, and if I have time I wanna make some levels for the Marine.

So there is lot of good news
Phoenix is at nightdive discord and he said there it never was a beef inbetween him paril or even Q2 community in general over the old weapon ports from Generations Arena, plus all the models will be open source for backport once 1.0 is out, which wont take too long.

And closed. Thanks again for those that showed up. WhoDunIt was interesting, although I think I'd definitely try the fan continuations in the future if I were to touch it again, and Preacher was just good all around. The more occult/religious theming of Hell works well for October, and those Cyberdemons got at least one good spook outta me, and everyone's entitled to one good scare for Halloween.

Plus the default skin being the cultist has really got me in the mood for some Blood. Might do some ZBloody Hell in the near future, unless anyone's got WADs like those pegged for actual Halloween sessions.

>People wanting other people to do a mapping project for them*
See, that's why we rely on you, anon. Others would just see the multiple people voicing interest in a mapping project, with the one you replied to even being interested enough to say they're ready to get things going as soon as they decide on a name, and they'd probably just wish them luck, but you on the other hand were wise enough to take offense to that.

We at the /vr/™ discussion and mapping conglomerate have extremely limited resources, with tight margins for each year, and something as irresponsible as voicing interest in a mapping project without submitting a design doc with attached project lead is a waste of our very limited /vr/™ post reservoir. That creates a hole that threatens to destroy our entire quarterly report, and forces other /vr/™ anons to either cover the slack or leave it unfulfilled and risk a devastating blow to both our fiscal establishment and public reputation.

God speed, anon, and god bless the nuts you drag over everything. We just couldn't do it without (You)

It depends on what game you want to map for, Xmapedit for Blood and Mapster32 for Duke, SW and IF. The hotkeys between editors are basically the same but Blood uses a unique (and better) scripting system for sector actions and whatnot. Here are the keybinds, keep in mind you pan the 2d grid with right mouse.

and some tutorials, check out davox designs video on IF mapping as well, very helpful.

Thanks, though I'll likely have to tone it down a bit since MDL wobble makes them clip through the dress, and it's only going to get worse as I add more animations that increase the largest bounding box (and thus vertex grid size). No way to preview that in Blender unfortunately.
Also I was very much inspired by Paul Steed (rest in tits) and a recommend anyone getting into early-3D game modeling read his book, which is still very applicable to Blender and game modeling in general: https://ricardocasarino.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/paul-steed-wordware-modeling-character-in-3ds-max-2002.pdf

A gibbed head will probably be the last thing I get to, but I'll make sure to do it. I'll probably forgo the typical Quake 1 thing of the gibbed head having more detail than the normal model though, since I'm already pushing well beyond a typical Quake 1 level of detail.

I’m not sure exactly what >>10304892 means by “accuracy” but this is a big list of differences between vanilla. I don’t recall it being updated since then.

[Anonymous No.10309587]

>>10309249
Accuracy is a short term meaning for anything that would differ from the original game logic. Kex uses floating point throughout it's internal logic, such as collision, hitscanning, sector movements, etc. One example that greatly differs is the spray can damage - the weapon relies on the fixed point inaccuracy for clipmove(). It's also why it doesn't support original demo playback as that would require faithfully recreating the gameloop logic down to random seed entropy and use of fixed point math.
Ranking accuracy would be as following for all blood ports.
NotBlood/BuildGDX/NBlood>Raze>Fresh Supply
NotBlood allows the ability to play in vanilla mode, which is game tick accurate to the original 1.21 release. BuildGDX offers the same vanilla mode feature as well, while NBlood locks this mode to demo playback only. Raze did have demo playback support but they dropped it when they revamped the input system across all of their supported build games, but it still is based on NBlood.
>How do you know if NotBlood is even demo accurate?
Run NotBlood with the argument -validate and it'll process 11 hours of demos, and compare the random seed, health and position of player with results extracted from 1.21 DOS binary. I use this to confirm upstream commits and test if they've broken demo compatibility (it has happened a few times).

You act as if it's difficult.

GzDoom isn't strictly 100% accurate, as it doesn't run demos, and it uses true RNG instead of the pRNG, but in terms of actually playing, the difference RNG and pRNG is impossibly subtle, GzDoom approximates all the values and monster behavior very well.

The main differences is that by default, GzDoom has freelook on, and uses full monster-player collision (as in monsters and players can move above and below each other freely when the room is there, like in Heretic), and that GzDoom uses a more precise hit detection. The better hit detection means that player melee works MUCH better, like your fist and saw actually connecting properly to big monster hitboxes, instead of like vanilla where it won't, and only kind of barely works on fatsos, arachnos, cybers, and spiders, if you wiggle your mouse left and right. The better hit detection also gives you slightly better BFG functionality in limited circumstances, like being able to oneshot the spider (though very rarely).

There's also some vanilla mapping tricks which won't work properly in GzDoom, but not that many, and they're not used that often.

Oh right, the better hit detection means that mancubus fireballs won't occasionally slip through solid walls, as they sometimes do in vanilla.

been a while since I played it, but it had the option to softly stick you to the nearest surface, that's probably it. it tries to keep the view direction parallel to the "ground", kinda like how Quake behaves on slopes without mouselook.

I know what you mean. The mouse control in the World Tour edition feels bad, and I never finished the levels as a result, but I played original as a kid and already tested out source ports. It's weird to me that they totally fucked up the controls and that the fan-made ports, which are years older and free, are better. Fot example, aside from the shitty mouse control, if you decide to turn off vertical mouse look to play the game how it originally came, you can turn off mouse-look.. but there is no toggle for slope-tilting, leaving you blind on slopes!

They will very much try to kill you with their daggers if close enough, and probably have a kick attack as well.
The goth one will summon enemies, teleport behind the player for sneaky stabbing, and drain health (potentially of other monsters) to heal herself.
The blonde one will toss flames at the player, resurrect dead enemies, and occasionally run at blinding speed in a circle around the player - leaving a trail of flames that start small enough to jump over but grow very tall after couple seconds.

Sorting thru the contents of the various model files of CodeRed made me realize something about an innate feature the Quake(2) engine barely used to any serious extent - you can theoreticly make entities composed of multiple models stitched together (Armagon most famously), and then just force them to jettison with a mid-animation skin change to simulate realistic gibbing a'la how LithTech does it, or "strategic dismemberment" simillar to Chasm's biggest selling point (also I'm pretty sure that's exactly how does the SiN's SMG recoiling slide works in order to not make the v_weap model turn into a jittery mess at lower resolutions), so why does anyone need to use UE4 for their retro FPS project again?

This has been making some kind of comeback with some of the more “realistic” modern shooters. I first was aware of it being a comeback trend when I played Underhell: In a span of 15 minutes I went from hating to loving it.
System Shock was the first to do this, wasn’t it? It would really suit HD and HD-likes.
>so there's a big chance I have no idea how much Doom2 has expanded upon D1
I like to think it plugged all the holes. In Doom there was no enemy between a caco and baron of hell: Hellknights, archviles, mancubi, arachnotrons, all these guys are great and then you have the boner bros and chaingunners. It also added the super shotgun so there wasn’t a giant gap of effectiveness between the chaingun and rocket launcher.

You just work with the tools you're most familiar with, it's that simple.

Prior to source ports and crap, maps were designed with it as a fact of mapping, suddenly it becomes easy to skip encounters by just jumping over some mobs or running under a caco horde.

In case you use mapster32, note that even with the scripts the scale of the view is still off. Shadow Warrior uses a scale that is about 40% bigger than Duke Nukem 3D, so if you use mapster32 for it the scale in 3D mode is off. Remember that and make sure you test your map when starting it to get the right feel from the start.

To be fair we are comparing a Q2 project to a Shadow Warrior one, probably the least popular of the three big Build games. That being said, some of the 500ml people were peaking around in here a few days ago and did express some interest in working on one.

Pretty good. Not too difficult, combat was fairly breezy and I managed to beat it first try without dying.
Some notes:
- When you're on top of the collapsing building with the blue skull key, you can see textures sticking out of the top of the nearby trees.
- The map seems to be going for an atmospheric thing, and that mostly works. Still I feel like some areas would benefit from being a bit darker (or stronger contrast between light and dark). Particularly the prison cell area and most of the sewers, which both felt too brightly lit. The weird green ceiling flat in the sewers probably doesn't help.
- I somehow didn't notice the SSG until after the sewers, but that wasn't really a problem since there were plenty of rockets to deal with the heavies.
- Found all secrets without too much effort, except for the BFG one.
- I was missing a monster at the end, which was an imp in the dark room in the sewer section who didn't wake up because I never peeked around the corner there.

Something that's been on my mind is a lot of the Q2 map stuff I've been seeing always uses base vanilla textures and stroggos designs and you don't see much custom or alternate aesthetics, like a more sci-fi look or maybe contemporary urban or even just like jungle or such.

Some short writeups on the mods I've played.
Eviction: A 5 level mod that showcases the new xmapedit scripting functionality, such as elaborate level set pieces and custom enemies. Newer versions will only work on NBlood and NotBlood.
Fleshed Out: 36 maps of varied settings with great enemy placement. Locations range from the wild west, a airboat and train and even a casino. Vanilla compatible (no new assets/work with every Blood port).
Marrow: The latest released mod for Blood. Features 10 levels with that classic non-linear structure. Vanilla compatible (no new assets/work with every Blood port).

Repostan these. I was looking through my bookmarks for Quake skyboxes and found these two generators:
https://tools.wwwtyro.net/space-3d/index.html#animationSpeed=1.9679712676194931&fov=89&nebulae=true&pointStars=false&resolution=1024&seed=4on54hvi6ho0&stars=false&sun=false
https://xaloez.com/skybox/index.html
The first one is instantaneous and really nice, the second one takes a looong fucking time and can glitch out if you switch tabs, but the results are really great. Pic related. However I neglected to check "render below horizon so now I have a bunch of negative space brb rendering it again.

The Q2 25th Unit not only increases the weapon swap speed, you can do so immediately after firing barely before the “reload” animation starts. It’s the most noticeable with the railgun: You can switch to the rocket launcher and fire one off in the time it takes to load another slug.

It’s fun but not necessary and is much more balanced with all the other weapons. It can also lead to a waste of ammo: Unlike some of the “modern” shooters with similar juggling/swap mechanics, the ammo drops in Q2 are finite.

Weird, half-assed implementation of tabletop mechanics for the weapons, which boils down to "use stronger gun on tougher guy"
Chainsword functions like nudoom's chainsaw except it gives you slowmo and the ability to airdash, and can be spammed constantly for near invincibility
First few levels are designed like watered down doom 2016 levels, as in linear paths with a few miniscule detours for powerups
Later levels drop the pretense of having thought put into them and opt for wave arenas filled to the brim with resources
Spritework and art direction is the typical Unity "retro" fare of random pixel resolutions caked with modern effects, with enemies being stiff and probably being cobbled together from pictures of minis on GW's website
Enemies themselves are ineffectual, basic archetypes that are content to stand in one spot and wait to die, and if there's anything truly unique then I refunded before I saw it
