[Anonymous No.10761178]

At the end of last thread, today, I had asked about Delta Doom or Meta Doom. I tried both now.

I love Delta. Very fun and arcadey. I can see why a lot of this stuff was cut but man does the dopamine hit HARD with all the soul pickups and the Dark Claw especially.

I also have been playing through Peredition's Gate for the first time with Delta Doom.

What a great WAD. Baffles me that the community picks Plutonia over this. So many cool set pieces that totally set a precident that Half Life took notes on.

The Teleporter Explosion with the Imps and The Projector Room are incredible works of art for the year this was built.

[Anonymous No.10761182]

>>10761161
Relic. That's not while though. I've been stuck in design hell for Doomslayer at the moment. I fear a 2 mana system for 6 weapons may have in fact: Been a bad idea. So I've been trying to figure out if I can salvage this or am I gonna need to figure out a new system.

If you're wondering, right now it's all too easy and tempting to use the chaingun, burn up your silver mana, then switch to the lava gun and use up your gold mana. Then it's just a matter of smacking enemies with your sword to build up silver. It also kinda sucks dumping into something with the chaingun and then switch to your shotgun only to realize you can't use it cus they share mana. Damn. I ultimately want to keep hitting shit with melee = ammo for guns, because that's a fun idea.
Well better to have these issues now before I make it public for everyone.

[Anonymous No.10761674]

Does progs_dump do anything by just existing or does it simply provide customization that you alter within the map editor that you would then need to implement? Asking because I'm a total noob with Quake mapping/coding, and I'm wanting to use ReMobilize's trampolines for some of the levels, but so far for my skillset that means using the rest of progs_dump that the code is bundled in. Would be remiss if that meant behaviors and customization that was preset by that mod's developer being inadvertently included, but I wouldn't know if prog_dumps would even do that.

>>10761182
Hmm, how do you acquire gold mana?

My first thought is to make the melee attack contribute to both pools, maybe in unequal amounts. Alternatively make it a loop where getting kills with silver ammo gives you gold ammo, and using gold ammo in turn temporarily powers up your melee attack into something devastating? Just spitballing different ideas - your core premise sounds really cool.

[Anonymous No.10761785]

>>10761772
That's how it works now actually, the sword attacks give more silver mana, and a little gold. Fists and the mourning star's melee attack give more gold, and a little silver.

Something I'm considering right now is some kinda equilibrium system where shooting silver mana weapons long enough will power up gold weapons for a certain amount of shots. Then vice versa for the gold mana weapons. I might also make it so if you lean on one mana too hard for too long, those start performing slightly worse.
I also might need to adjust how the magmauler works, cus it's really fucking strong.

[Anonymous No.10761827]

>>10761182
Would it work if silver were split into two forms, slugs and bullets or some shit, where you get both at the same time but the shotgun version at a lesser rate?

[Anonymous No.10761838]

>>10761827
That's something I had considered. Though right now I'm gonna try the equilibrium system, and I just realized I have a simple and effective means of balancing the magmauler too.
The chaingun has a ramp up effect as you fire it, so obviously the magmauler needs to have a ramp DOWN effect as you fire it, so the piss stream weakens and loses range.

[Anonymous No.10761864]

>>10761857
Well if I moved the Chaingun off silver mana, then it'd be using gold mana, sharing an ammo pool with the other rapid fire weapon: The magmauler. I'm not sure if that's an ideal scenario.
I think giving the magmauler that ramp down like I mentioned in the post above might help, because it definitely becomes less of an ideal weapon to lean on the trigger, whereas the chaingun works better the longer you shoot it.

[Anonymous No.10761881]

>>10761864
Sounds like a good balance.
It is funny the golden chaingun doesn't use gold mana

[Anonymous No.10761883]

Yes, the functionality. Managing those 100 extra hp is such an annoyance in Doom if you want to get the most out of it. In Quake it's just a big healing item with extra bonus that might end before you even get a chance to use it.

[Anonymous No.10762097]

>>10762005
Ideally you want to have full hp before you pick supercharge, then you will have 200hp. So you want to grab some medkits first.
In Quake it doesn't matter if you have low hp or full hp, you still gonna end up with 100hp. Yes, you might get it at full hp and get the same 200hp, and IF you find a fight right away you will get some use out of those extra hp. But without a fight it's just another medkit.
On top of that there's blue/red armor, and _ideally_ you want to use those sweet 200 hp with your best armor to get the most effective hp out of it. When your extra hp is temporary and you might not even use it in fight at all, you don't have to worry about it that much as well.

yeah the idea is it's a techbase that gets more hell-ified over the course of the map so the start zone copy is using like marble textures and exclusively hell enemies.
I had ideas to use line portals to more sell the idea that reality is breaking down but line portals seem to be a pain in the ass to orient and manage like that staircase in the bottom right so I kinda scrapped the idea.
Also the bend of the horseshoe sucked to make a fight in because the sight lines mean you trigger monsters really early unless they are super far back or teleported in.
I'll post the map here when I'm done then think about trying out boom format maps because udmf I think gives me too much freedom

Whats wrong with you guys? I thought by now everybody would have got the concept that romero was simply a charlatain. Carmack owned the company and surpassed him in any possible way in less than a few years while the "rock dude" barely managed to make a few maps playable (the first ones, which are the easiest).
if you have been around, you know that romero is no design god. hardly. he can be considered an amateur and im not talking by todays standards.

map18 requires an archvile jump and it's easy to kill the archvile before you realize it (though it might be possible to sr50 the gap)

Technically you can exit the unit by a fast ramp-jump and killing an insane human to take his place, but an invisible wall will kill you and make the next map start you with only a Blaster as if you'd warp into the shuttle level via console, so good luck downing a dozen of Beta Gladiators with just that (and whatever you'd get during the level later)

IWAD : Doom 2 | Format : Boom
Maps for Doom 2 using the original placement of monsters
Alpha v6: https://files.catbox.moe/bfjkea.wad
rules and stuff: https://pastebin.com/CrVTqGvr

Deadline extended yet again (and probably not the last time if things stay the way they are) to march 15th.

I did a quick check on previous threads for submissions and updated maps 4,8,13 for this alpha. A week ago a guy said something about map 33 but maybe i missed it. So please do tell me if i missed this or any other submission.

For those wondering why all the extensions, I recently got roped into helping my old man wire the house he is building (it was actually done by a "professional" before but it was stolen) and that took over a week to do and now i decided to help him finish the house since its mostly done (hopefully will be finished by the end of this week but somehow there is always something else remaining) and i work the nights so not much time left. All that coupled with the fact that i have been infected by from software brain rot means i haven't spent any of my little free time on doom but it should all go back to normal once the house is done. I plan on seeing this project to the end so even though its having some delays it will be done at some point.

Mapper Anons, how do you deal with a project that's festering at the halfway point cause you dunno wtf to do/out of ideas/unmotivated to finish it? Options:

Release 3 maps and call it a day
Release the one good map (the other 2 are ok) and call it a day
Wait like 6 months and maybe feel like finishing the whole thing idk

Whenever something turns into a "project" there's like a sweet spot where its really fun and then it just becomes a fucking chore. Releasing half the maps feels like a cop out but I dunno how much I want to finish the episode anymore. Forcing yourself to do it would suck. Having decent maps rotting on your hard drive sucks.

If it's just your stuff, there's no rush to release anything. Nobody is going anywhere. Keep it around until you feel like crossing the finish line.
This isn't just a thing with mapping, it's really easy to get 90% of the way through any sort of creative endeavor and find it difficult to make it across the finish line.

Been playtesting myself senseless with Doomslayer. I have a handful of friends playtesting as well, one of which has really goddamn good insight on making sure things don't suck. He was the one who suggested making the pistol switch over to gold mana if you run out of silver while firing it. Helps in the early game.

Hey guys, this is Layne Floigley. You might know me as the lead singer of Floigan in Chains (formerly Alice in Chains). By the way, I'm dead. Anyway, I ran into a couple old buddies of mine while I was buying a pack of smokes at the Circle K last week: Floig Jones Jr. and Tyrese Floigson. We used to shoot junk and watch cartoons together n' stuff... it was real cool, man. By the way, I'm dead. Anyway, they were telling me how there was some anti-floiganism going down 'round these parts, and they said I should stop by and have a little chat with you guys. The first thing I want you to know is that I used to be a huge faggot. Everybody thought I was super chill and friendly n' stuff, even though all I ever did was sing about depression, drug use, and suicide. I also invited a guy on stage during one of my concerts and sucker punched him for giving a Nazi salute while surrounded by hundreds of fans and security guards because of how tolerant and brave I was n' stuff, even though I had no problem directly funding murder and child trafficking by buying massive amounts of black market opiates. I even let my girlfriend get fucked by a bunch of old men for heroin money even though I had millions of dollars, because I spent it all on heroin. By the way, she's dead. Anyway, the point is, I was a total douchenozzle n' stuff. Then, I found Floigan, and everything changed. Floigan made me realize how much of a retarded fag I had been. After undergoing floigalysis, I started changing myself for the better: I started regularly washing my bed linens, I got a Costco membership, I read Mein Kampf, I stopped shooting as much junk, and I even started working on the whole me being dead thing n' stuff. Look friend, the fact is... Floigan changed me, and Floigan can change you, too. Just stop like, being all hateful n' stuff. Open your heart and accept Floigan into your life.

Fiddled with it quickly, this is very simple stuff and is 90% just commenting out the features you don't want. Some of the actor names and comments are funny, also there's apparently a dummied out alt-fire function for the SMG to select between normal and a high rate of fire, for testing sound apparently.
Says pistol is supposed to have a 4 tic delay before every shot, and looking at the ZDoom Wiki's page for Doom's pistol, the durations of the frames add up. I think he accidentally gave the shotgun's hammer the same sound as the super shotgun's, so I fixed that too.

Seem like mere coincidence or a partial homage to me - as it can be either that or just a reference to Cylons from BG, here's the Zboss body skin for comparison (he's got a seperate head bit as one of his death animations shows him loosing it, and the mechsuit he uses in battle taking a moment to notice that).
I wonder if the Guards having a visible neck stump means that at some point they were intended to have a beheading-induced alternate death animation just like the Infantry/Enforcer does have one.

Timer returns the tic value since the last "epoch" which in the case I'm using is just map start.
I just tried pre-multiplying Timer by 360 and it finally swings back and forth between a negative and a positive value, I was just using way too small a value of x for sin(x)
Fiddling with the values I "sin between" is giving me the behaviour I wanted with the lights. Now I just need to make sure I can reliably break the while loop, it can't cause some kind of memory leak can it?

In my experience, you are just not going to get that, not without UDMF or something. You'll just have to settle for the closest approximates.

I mean, it basically is. It's a finely and autismally crafted milsim pseudo-rogue gameplay with shitloads of depth, detail, and nuance.
It sets itself apart by having lots of supernatural and sci-fi elements to create all kinds of neat variety which you don't see in the majority of milsim games, and since it's built on Doom it uses Doom levels and Doom custom levels.
I'm not aware of ANYTHING out there which gives you a blend of milsim autism, magic and sci-fi, and Doom style level design, so it's not just very well put together, it's kind of unique.

The only place it really falters is that the sound design and weapon animations are very understated, which comes from programmer minimalism autism, so it's merely functional, rather than having any kind of polish. On the mod side, that's somewhat fixable.
If Hideous Destructor had its own handcrafted campaign of levels, and all new graphics and sound, it could be sold as an indie game, and while maybe it wouldn't quite do Undertale numbers (because relatively few people are into this style of gameplay), it would probably review and sell quite well.

Feels good to play the superior port. Ok, maybe speedrunners for obvious reasons may prefer other ones, but there is no actual, sane reason for not using Gzdoom if you're just trying to have fun. I don't want to start the usual debate, but seriously, so many newbies get into the "ahah you should play doom on a port that emulates the game better :)) gzdoom actually lets you jump and has blockmap bugs so that's not the right game. you're not even playing doom" so people born after 95/2000 get tricked because they don't know jackshit and miss out on a lot of the fun. I'm not even talking about mods (although they are a big part of the port), but just the ease of use, the ability to do literally whatever you want. Do you have to set it up to match your machine? Yes, but that's once in a lifetime if you know how to operate a fucking pc.

Honestly. The biggest meme I think is the color palette. It looks AWFUL the way some colors get Grey Washed. I cannot believe elitists prefer Doom to look like that over GZDoom with Dynamic Lightning and Ambient Occlusion.

And no. I am not memeing.

I'm not an expert, but I've made a few custom textures for Quake so I'll try to help.
For large tileable textures it's pretty straightforward, and not really different from Doom. You just want to make sure you have noticeable light coming from the top-right for textures meant to be used on walls, and somewhat more diffused lighting for floors/ceilings. If these textures have intentional seams (i.e. literal floor tiles, or bricks) then those seams should lie on common grid increments that a mapper would build in (16, 32, 64, 8 at the lowest). If you want to take advantage of the fact that we don't really have to worry about texture memory in Quake anymore, you can tile these textures (usually 4x) and overlay details that break up the obvious repeating patterns - but that's a more advanced skill and isn't necessary.
As for more complex textures like trims, you have to consider how a mapper might cut them into pieces and use them for detailing. In pic related for example, these trim pieces are in nice 64-unit (pixel) rows that a mapper can easily cut up. However, some of them can be cut into even smaller pieces if a mapper just wants part of a pattern (or the space between them). This is easy to do because everything is in nice grid increments that don't go below 8.
If you have a set piece texture for a somewhat complex brush model (like the coffins or statues from DoE), then you'll want to build said brush model, figure out which sides most directly loop around to each other, and connect parts of your texture based on that. It can be a little complicated, but if you're familiar with UV unwrapping a 3D model then it's basically the same thing, but with consideration for how a mapper would apply it.
Hope that helps.

Oh there's no question about GZDoom having a ton of good co-op mods. Every once in a while, we still get together to play some stuff on LAN, and what we do play then is pretty good (even if some still seem to like to desync). A few of my faves that were perfect for co-op have moved from Zan to GZDoom just because the featureset is just better.

It's just that those occasions are few and most of the time, DOOM is played over the net and GZDoom's crusty netcode isn't good for our distance and group size. If GZDoom ever got proper client/server netcode, it'd become the defacto port for me.

Weapons are exactly the same as vanilla doom, but with a magic theme.

Fist: a mace or a sword
Pistol: easy, any little wand, small magic puff instead of a normal gun puff
Shotgun/SSG: these are the hardest ones. maybe just pick some ancient looking guns? i thought about using hands as in spells, but then how do we explain the bullet puffs? i'm not even sure if i can remove them at this point (DECORATE btw)
Chaingun: like the pistol maybe, bigger wand
Rocket: crossbow

If you're so inclined, you could use the old Mourning Star and Thunderbuss from GMOTA, the shitty old green hands would have to be scrubbed off them.

It was a mulifaceted problem, really. Romero was not dedicated strongly to Quake's development, but PART of the blame comes from the fact that Carmack faced a lot of difficulty in getting the renderer to actually work properly, he really tore his hair over it, so SOME of the development just couldn't be done.
Carmack also admitted that though it wasn't what he wanted him to focus on, Romero did put in a lot of work on helping the development of Heretic, Hexen, and Strife, so he wasn't just doing nothing, and the deathmatching he did do would drum up business for DWANGO. He also owes up to how Quake's development struggled because of him as well.

Really, the classic iD team as a whole were splitting at the seams by then because none of them really had a great idea of how to run a company, and people like Tim Willits gladly poisoned the well at any opportunity he had just because that's what was wrong with him.

I would wager that anon meant community wads as those collection wads made of levels slapped together from amateur or veteran mappers that are there just so people can release things together for fun.

Calling Eviternity a community wad doesn't make sense to me. It's a concerted effort of veterans in the community and it's absolutely not spotty in quality like many Doom wads are, such as CChest or Nova.

Romero still gets paid for his mapping, by selling overpriced box sets and licensing soundtracks.

Well, that's true, but it's self-employment.

Eviternity is shit. I don't want good environment or anything

You're just gonna have to look for throwback projects then. Most people want to work beyond the limits and conventions of 1995, and that was just as true 10 years ago as it was 20 or almost 30 years ago, stuff like DTWID has always been outliers for the majority of Doom's history.

where are they?

>>10771760
I don't fucking know, I don't pay attention to them. Maybe some stuff would be more palatable to you on lower skill settings or something.

Fava Beans is easy and plain, you made the argument yourself.

I wonder if you could use keens or mancubi to change the shape of a map depending on difficulty. Just have them appear/not appear and get crushed when the map starts.

[Anonymous No.10771801]

>>10771796
You could, though you need to use a slow crusher or the crusher can break the effect by making them skip the necessary frames.

[Anonymous No.10771803]

>>10771796
Maybe you could fuck around with player 1 starts too to have the player start in a different section of the map and use walkable linedefs to alter the geometry.
>>10771789
Just fucking play Oblige or Obsidian maps because that's the only thing that I can think of that can satiate your dopamine overdosed brain and stop posting.

Maybe if the Keen/Mancubus difficulty thing was set up to open/close a teleporter by the start or something. Player starts aren't affected by skill setting.

>Player starts aren't affected by skill setting.
Huh, didn't know that. If we take the manc/keen route I was thinking of opening up a new pathway, looks much cleaner than just plopping down a teleporter.

If Sigils were made by someone else than Romero you would complain that they are modern slaughtershit.
