It's been a lazy-as-hell day. Decided to fiddle with a system that allows all non-ammo pickups to randomly drop 'loose ammo', which was a thing in the original mod.

Pic related, it's the cluster fuck that the original mod had for a backpack spawner, it drops a ton of lose-ammo, along with some health and armor pickups.

Oh, and every pickup that isn't loose ammo or the health/armor pickups from the backpack clusterfuck respawns, so it doesn't fuck over multiplayer games.

>Hello folks, felt in the mood to whip up a little 1024 map this afternoon, so I did. If you guys wanna check it out then I would be happy to hear any feedback you may have!
>http://www.mediafire.com/download/5s881kqcqzi6ct6/1024MAP01.wad

demo (second exit): http://temp-host.com/download.php?file=jb69vj

i think the point of a 1024 map is to compress as much map as possible into the space; to reuse areas multiple times repopulating them with teleporters, and to generally give the sense of a large map occupying a tiny area. for this reason i tend not to like them, i dislike excess crampedness. yours in contrast just felt like a small map that just happened to be arranged inside a 1024 square.

shotgun only, but nothing bigger than a demon (pinky, whatever you want to call it), no slowly plinking away at high-HP monsters as tends to happen in some shotgun-only maps, but at the same time, a little bit too easy. i think you could have had a single higher-tier monster in there as a level boss. for example: a hellknight/revenant/archvile (take your pick) in the closet that opens when you pick up the blue key, but placed behind a single-use monster-only teleporter line, which immediately moves it to the vicinity of the player start, or the exit bars.

anyway it was quite enjoyable, so i recorded it.

technical note: you only need to tag the sector containing a teleporter destination. not the surrounding linedefs as well! in particular your sector 50 is correctly tagged 6 but its surrounding linedefs 196-8,201 do not need to be tagged. in general, if a linedef has no action, it does not need a tag number (although there are exceptions, e.g boom's silent line-to-line teleporters)

You can totally do that stuff with GZDoom, most people just don't bother, because well, Doom is Doom, most prefer to keep it relatively simple and not TOO graphically intense, to make sure their work is accessible on low powered computers.

Honestly, I think you're gonna find a lot of mods that've been aching for that. That'll be the best avenue to go.
Other possibilities include RSL's Rebel (a personal favorite, play as a rebellious mage against the cultists) and Xaser's Psychic (heavily inspired by DMC).

Thanks for the nomination, other anon! DemonSteele is definitely unfinished, aye, but I don't plan on rehauling any of its major gameplay systems anytime soon, and everything core is already implemented.

I was thinking an ominous and gothic castle in the distance across a long and plain bridgeway over a pool of lava/void. It's all silent and peaceful at first, you hike your way in, but then after entering through the doors you go through a small series of rooms fighting off enemies and hitting switch puzzles. Eventually you reach the final boss (the Slayer of Light, whose behavior and code is actually completely finished) at the top of the castle in a large arena with the moon in the sky and lightning flashing in the distance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UMuAU8f7mM

Complete with this as the music. Finntroll released this as a free download, so there wouldn't be any legal issues with using it.

I'd definitely base them around the "gothic evil castle" theme.
Dissolution and Scythe 2 were the levelsets I used the absolute most in testing out DemonSteele, and the Quake architecture of Dissolution and the gothic levels of Scythe 2 fit everything like a glove.

Besides, they're everywhere on album covers.

Got a few questions, /doom/. I know it sounds heretical, but I'm bored of Doom, and have been wanting to do some Quaking. I have all the Quake games (except 4) on Steam, and I have Dark Places for Quake 1.
So my question is, how do I go about using custom maps with Quake 1? What are some good gameplay mods for the Quake games? And in general, where is a good place to look for such things? I would usually check the doomworld/idgames for wads for Doom, and I would come here, or the ZDoom forums to look for mods, is there anywhere similar I can check for Quake related mods?

Well, a giant, DMC/Castlevania-inspired, hub-based gothic castle episode for Demonsteele does sound like a tempting project.

Though I think it'd be better to start simple and have just a level or two before trying a full episode, mostly to get a feel for workflow and how to go about with things.

In the TARGET section is the command line where the shortcut looks for the executable.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Quake\quake.exe"

You would change that to look something like what is below;

Fuck, I'm not so sure. Timesplitters and Perfect Dark are definitely great and Battlefield 2142 wasn't bad either, as was Heroes before EA went full jew. Those physics were fucking hilarious.

I wouldn't call the latter two any better than Doom though, especially when one of them became P2W shit and that the other is completely different in gameplay.

You mean:

You silly Americans and your imperial "a mile is how fast the king's horse can run in a minute"/"this is how many levels id software put in doom 2" measurement system.

Here in the EU we entertain no such folly; our naming system is concise and straightforward.

A wad with 5 levels or less is simply called a pwad. A pwad that contains at least 6 new levels but no more than 15 is called a decawad, a wad with at least 16 but no more than 25 is a dudecawad, a wad with at least 26 but no more than 35 is a tridecawad, and so forth. All hub levels are counted separately for the purposes of naming.

As for Conversions the naming is similar but the amounts are not rounded. A wad which replaces at least 10% of the game assets is called a decicon (con is a shortened version of conversion), one which replaces at least 20% of the game assests is a dudecicon, and so forth until 100% of the game assets are replaced at which point it's either called a "conversion" or an iwad, depending upon whether it requires another wad to run.

So for instance something could be described as a decicon tridecawad hub, and you would know immediately that it is a hub-style pwad containing 26-35 levels with 10-19% of the game assets replaced with player-created ones. Much better I think.

the problem is how to define a bad wad

is it deliberately designed to evoke bad mapping as a self aware parody

is it deliberately bad because it's a troll

is it unintentionally bad because the author is new to mapping and hasn't learned the trade yet

is it bad because the author disagrees with the common wisdom and deliberately maps contrary to that (so the author thinks it's good, but a lot of others don't)

I think it's actually pretty imbalanced and broken.

For example, there is no reason use to Plasma's primary fire.
The alt fire shoots out MUCH stronger plasma shots at a much smaller cost than it should be.
One alt-fire(5 cells) = 35-ish primary shots in power.

The BFG is also really overpowered with it's primary fire.
It doesn't seem like much but it just annihilates everything for not many cells.

Then you get the rifle and chaingun and both pretty much kick ass but don't share ammo pools.


I wouldn't say the mod is a piece of shit but it definitely needs some tuning.

There is more of a reason than Saturn's shotgun.

Although the vanilla shotgun couldn't ever match the power of SSG, it still has more accuracy than the Saturn one and sometimes you could justify saving shells on something like zombies because SSG always uses 2.

In Weapons of Saturn this never happens because it's SSG fires more pellets per shell and you can single fire it which still puts out more pellets.

I do like Saturn's slamfiring for the single SG though

It kinda takes away most of the gameplay and the tension you'd expect from a doom wad, and for me it feels like I'm just going through the maps with some annoying obstacles (like the whole Arselinux wiki map where you just have to wander around and wait like 20-30 minutes until the game suddenly decides it's time to move on) just the see the extremely bizarre mapping.

So there's another thread in /vr/ that prompts you to talk about flaws in your favorite game, and I chose DOOM, and I figured, "it's relevant, so why not share my thoughts with you guys?"
My biggest gripes with the original game (not the source ports of today like ZDoom and Zandronum) are as follows: it had some clunky controls with strafing being mapped to a button that had to be pressed in tandem with another button that normally turns your character around; there was no mouselook, which admittedly could be discounted seeing as how it was one of the first FPS games and helped propel the genre's rise; and the map design in in II and Evilution/Plutonia was lacking in a few places compared to I.
...Oh yeah, and the SSG is kinda horribly balanced compared to other weapons, which is especially noticeable in multiplayer games.

But that's not true, there were independent strafe keys, and they were rebindable and everything.
>mouselook
The game allowed moving the player view with the mouse, just not vertically.
>map design in 2/Evilution/Plutonia
I didn't like 2's map design, Evilution monster placement and choice. Plutonia was alright but I wasn't a complete fan of the boring textures.
And I pretty much agree with the SSG. It feels so good tho.

To add something of my own, I hate the chaingun sound and firing speed, and Pain Elementals and Lost souls are fucking boring.

...huh. Well, the last time I played the original game was when I was around 6 or 8, so I must have forgotten.
And I must admit vertical mouselook in other games spoiled me. It just feels unnatural when I move my mouse up and down and I just go forwards or backwards instead of looking up or down.

I'd probably say Plutonia > Doom 2 > TNT > Doom 1.

The original Doom is of course great, but the super shotgun and the new enemies added in Doom 2 make a world of difference. I'd probably take competent but not particularly great levels using Doom 2's additions (what TNT pretty much is) over excellent levels using Doom 1's toolset (like the original game).

Doom 2 is overall an improvement on the first game even if its stages are a bit more scattershot. Plutonia is like the first true realization of the Doom formula; it's head-and-shoulders above all the other IWADs.

Samsara. Play as the heros of different retro fps games in any of the Doom engine games. You can be Duke Nukem, Parias from Hexen, Corvus from Heretic, Chex from Chex Quest, the guy from Marathon, etc.

This Mod's author is a dick at times.

In the original version of this mod, these guys were nearly invisible ("TRANSLUCENCY=15%"), replaced the "Evil eye" prop and fired projectiles that homed and bounced off walls, on top of all this it was basically invisible ("TRANSLUCENCY=7%") and did 50k damage to the player

I sorta retained the "You're going to die if you're hit by this projectile" property (It does 500 damage), and are double the original projectile's speed (which is 4), but these don't home and die off after a set distance. Oh and you can clearly see both monster and projectile this time around.

1.) Projectile is really fucking slow, I mean it's slower than every other projectile used in this mod. It's slow enough that even your reduced speed will put you far from it.

2.) The monster isn't too hard to see right now, but I"ll fix that up.

3.) My hands are sorta tied, because I'm just making what's already in the mod fairer.

4.) It doesn't spawn all the time, it's on a spawner with several harmless eyes that have a higher chance to spawn

>> No.2097727

I guess 1 is fine as long as there's some sort of warning about it.
2 being addressed is good too.

I just worry about it because it does sound like a game breaker, after all the eyes are used often.

I was also thinking of this one map set which had a map just completely covered with the eyes and shooting would make an army of archviles whenver an eye could see you.

If there's an EOTU (Eye of the Unforgiven) on a map, and you're Moderately close to it, you'll hear a heart beat (of course, the further you are the softer it is, but you can hear it.)

The new eye decorations may break that map, though.

I was thinking that you'd strafe with L+R, and use the pad to move.
Ideally, all controls should be bindable by the user themself.
On a side-note, I fucking hate how console games today don't let you rebind keys, often offering a few preset configs at best. This shit needs to stop.

Hold A to run (or change between Always Run/Always Walk/Toggle in options)
Press Y to shoot
Press B to open/hit switches
Press X to [this space intentionally left blank]

You'd use the D-Pad to select weapons:
Up Once: Fist
Up Twice: Chainsaw
Left Once: Shotgun
Left Twice: Super Shotgun
Right Once: Pistol
Right Twice: Chaingun
Down Once: Plasma Rifle
Down Twice: Rocket Launcher
Down Thrice: BFG 9000
(not certain about these last ones)

Select and Start for menu and stuff obviously, and then touch-screen support, the lower screen can be a map screen for single player, or a score screen for multiplayer. If you port Strife (as if), the touch screen can be used to go through logs, view your stats and inventory, keys, etc.

Are there any midi remixes of the OST?
