PerKristian's HQ one. Basically the same stock sounds not compressed to shit quality. Top notch shit.

Music is 100% opinion, but if you feel the urge to do TNT, get Lorican's pack. Rig it for zDoom if you have to. Seriously, it makes it an entirely new orgasmic experience.

Hey guys, that anon that only just picked up map making has pretty much inspired me to stop being a pushover about it and try it out.

Anonfiles link is file/4fb55de2268122bf283ed1b6128a7e11

This is the first map that I've made generally as a test, you can probably see where I learnt and mucked around with certain things. I just want some thoughts on it, it's really small, and I hit a block when I got to this part of creating it.

Well that was certainly unusual.

It's honestly basic to the point where if I was to lay into it, it'd be like kicking a newborn puppy. Flesh it out some more.

I'm down to my last room, barring some extra secrets and maybe a secret exit. Kinda hitting another block so I'm gonna let it simmer for awhile before I go and try to finish it.

>slow lifts
I actually had an idea for an entire part of a map where a large arena area is slowly, slowly going down, and monsters keep teleporting in- and as it goes down, it opens up monster houses. So it's a fighting descension to the next area of the map.

there are several sourceports that give the game modern features such as better resolutions, modern W,A,S,D controls. etc. Some sourceports give off extra features such as colored lighting and effects, like in Skulltag or GZDoom.

I would rec using Skulltag because pwetty lights.

Here are some cool wads that show off the engine.

-BTSX series
-Scythe II
-Doom 64 EX

Ultimate Doom is an IWAD, so ya you have the IWAD.

You load the IWAD through something else like Dosbox but fuck dosbox.

I mean honestly, my first time playing Doom (last year) was with Dosbox and it was fine. loved the game, but it's way better with proper mouse controls. I assume Chocolate Doom supports it

>IWADs
Iwads are essentially the game files that runs on the game engine. An 'internal WAD' Think of it like the pile of resource files and levels for a doomesque game. Chex Quest is a doom clone, so it uses the same engine, but it has its own textures, maps, weapons, etc. So it has an IWAD. Hexen, Heretic, Doom Ultimate, Doom 2, Freedoom, Doom: TNT and Doom: Plutonia are some examples. Most wads actually require you to use an IWAD.

>>2575090
>Mods
Mods come in a few forms. PWADs, pk3, pk7, etc. You pretty universally run them by either right clicking and selecting 'open with', or you can make a shortcut to the sourceport and run a (or multiple) parameter(s) of '-file runme.pk3', or you could use ZDL (A launcher program) to select whatever PWADs, IWADs, sourceports, mappacks, etc you want.

I usually drag and drop, myself.
I spent over a year making a mod by manually editing text files, and eventually found out about Notepad++. I felt like a genius when I later made a batch file to auto-zip up a test version of the pk3... and then found out you can drag and drop an entire fucking folder. Goddamnit.

>>2575089
Skulltag is outdated. IMO, Zandronum is best for netplay, while GZdoom/Zdoom are best for normal play.
I need to entirely rewrite my mod so that it runs on zandronum, mostly because I want to play it with friends.

I have pretty low end hardware tbh from like 2007 but it shouldn't have so much problem handling a few light effects, which is why I prefer Skulltag compared to GZDoom. This is more of a problem with the recent editions of GZDoom rather than the older versions of it.

I'm working on Project ILE. Now that I know what I'm doing, I plan on taking the entire thing apart, and start from mostly scratch.

I'm also toying with the idea of mapping for it, too, because I have plenty of ideas for maps.
I also plan on bullettime, because that's the best way I can think of to make use of the new 'no hitscans'. The mechanic I have in mind is that you gain 'adrenaline' by killing monsters, and you spend it to slow down time for everything but your own movement.

There's a large amount of really stupid default settings so you may want to go over your options meticulously. If you're gonna use mouselook you want to turn crosshairs on and autoaim off, and I think GZDoom defaults to using some awful sprite filters.

Speaking of which, if you're using that particular port always load brightmaps.pk3 along with whatever else. And once you've completed the first episodes of ultimate doom at the very least you might want to look into a mod called "smooth doom" that more than doubles the amount of animation frames for just about everything without affecting gameplay or aesthetics.

>It's alright, pretty basic, really
That was my reaction pretty much after playing through the first time. Yet 17 years later here I am. It may grow on you.

However, it also may not. Which is fine. Doom is at heart a very simple game in the sense that there is not many different things you can do. Move, turn, shoot, pick up things, press buttons. (Compare the number of different things the player can do in NetHack, say.) However that simplicity has infinite variety which is why I am still playing it so many years later.

You're welcome, also some descriptions of those wads I rec'd earlier if you want to play more.

BTSX - Series of megawads designed to push vanilla Doom to it's limits and it's an unfinished trilogy of episodes that take you through a mysterious planet/moon. The first episode takes place in a huge tech base complex, and the second episode takes you though gothic ruins.

Scythe II - Megawad that has some eye pleasing level design and some nice themes. Features two custom monsters in the wad.

Doom 64 EX - port by a guy that goes by the username Kaiser of the exclusive game for the N64. It was a whole new mapset with a focus on ambience and the environment. It features some of the more memorable maps of the 2.5 Doom series. You start out in Half-Life 1 esqe bases and end up in a Hell that's styled after Quake.

I already have a vague idea on it.
It'd involve scripting entirely different sets of states for every weapon and monster. Projectiles would gain a state that scales their speed down instantly.

Though the slow time wouldn't slow everything the exact same rate. It would slow the player's movespeed down to 80%, weapons slowprojectiles and monsters to 50%, and fastprojectiles to 30%. Oh, and it'd also slow down turnspeed and aimspeed to 50%,

I'm also thinking of adding in an oversped monster that's basically impossible to get a bead on until you slow time, after which it's still pretty fast but managable.

I was talking about going into each monster and giving them alternate states that they use when time is slowed. Not doing that stuttery bullshit done via 'freeze/unfreeze every tick'.
I'm modifying every creature anyway, so I might as well do it twice.

Yeah, it was just an idea. I just really like the idea of saving up a resource like that over time by killing monsters, and I'm not sure how else to make use of the basic core concept of Project ILE- taking every hitscan enemy and make them not hitscan, and also fucking around with monsters to give them fun new mechanics. My personal favorite of these is the spectre phasing into another dimension to get away from you and phasing back in behind you when you aren't expecting it.

I didn't like the effect in either of those.

>>2575271
There's a lot you can do with projectiles. Give the player a melee attack that makes them +reflective for a few frames so projectiles can be parried for example, or make projectiles shootable like in doom 3 (it's possible right?). Also don't forget to mix things up with Floorhugger projectiles, rippers, maybe projectlies that lay burning or otherwise hazardous trails you have to jump over, etc.

I really like your spectre phasing idea, you should do all your behaviour alterations with the monsters role and personality in mind. Revenants could go berserk if hurt enough and get increased speed and a lunging ability but no missiles, imps could have a chance to enter a fleeing state from their pain state..

Half of that is done, actually.

Imps are also ~magic~, so not only do they flee when they enter a pain state, they also throw out illusory imps to catch your fire instead. The illusory imps attack you with fireballs that don't actually deal damage, but they cause the screenflash and the pain sound.

Revenants are superhyperaggressive, but that's because they're actually possessed by spirits that hop into new bodies

I've tested it with multiple gameplay mods, was able to complete it with all of them except an old version of qStyle which fucks up a keycard script. Insane difficulty mods like Hideous Destructor are not recommended. There's a lot of skellingtons.

Obviously meant for gzDoom. I'm not using any wacky gzDoom features, so it should work with old versions/Skulltag/Zandronum.

That's all. Have fun! (I hope.)

I have no idea. I started with some colored, point lighting and then ditched it because it was kinda shitty and not worth the effort. There's like a grand total of 5 slopes in the level, I don't have a lot of fun working with them.

Other than that - colored lighting, I guess? I mean it might work in zDoom, but I only ever tested it in gzDoom so I dared not give anyone false hope if I fucked something up drastically.

I hate it when detailing "pops" out of the wall and causes you to crash into it when you try to sidestep fireballs, like these water ducts. I'd make the waterfalls recessed rather than jutting out, maybe add some supports like the redlines show or just use invisible walls to prevent the player from moving into those little niches between the wall and the detail work. Taking unnecessary damage thanks to map makers making things ~^*fancy*^~ without concern to how it would affect player mobility goes beyond personal pet peeve and into full on stupid apeshit mode for me.

Also that's partially the fault of the stage being cramped and small too, but whatever.

I figured it'd happen as much. I plan to smooth out levels with blocking line defs when I move onto larger ones.

Then again, I also just beat my own map with Hideous Destructor on Grotesque, so it's definitely possible. I feel a few too many players rely on the pathetically easy dodging of un-aimed monster projectiles, so you have limited options to make it more interesting besides hitscan spam and tight quarters.

I configured fluidsynth too, manually edited the conf files, putting SGM-V2.01.sf2

Putting timidity in daemon mode made zdoom throw a fit and crash, fluidsynth straight up refuses to play anything, and makes zdoom crash after 5 seconds of nothing.

I'm assuming he's talking about Demonsteele's "now that's what I call midi", which is almost 400 cheesy midis of different metal/rock music in a randomizer. Enter a level, it shuffles and selects a new song. Don't like it, type nextsong or hit a key and it shuffles to a new song. Want to hear the original music, type origsong or hit a console and it plays the level music. Want to hear a specific song, type song 312 and it plays that specific song.

It's a really cool combination of simple and effective, and is really easy to mod to include your own music. A few people have already released their own variants.

Heh, I was exactly like you back when I played E1. Its pretty easy in the first two clusters (1-7, 9-15, 31), but the third cluster and final map (17-22, 24) can be somewhat challenging.

E2 is where I'd say it truly becomes tough, though. Be advised that Map31 is a league of its own, here.

>>chaingun with SG firing sound
>literally why didn't id do this is completely beyond me

I believe in Doom 1, the reason why the Spider Mastermind had the shotgun sound was because his chaingun was actually more powerful (fires 3 pellets per shot, instead of 1).

Chaingunners kept it cause they didnt want them to fire at the same speed as the player's chaingun, and felt it would be too obvious they fire slower with the regular pistol sound.

It really isn't. In fact, I think its quite underrated. A lot better than the Platoon TC and its Tour of Duty maps for Duke3D. I didn't pay for it.

Lost levels were made in 1994 by Chris Klie, and Bob Carter. I'd say for that time, they're okay, but generally haven't aged very well.

There's plenty of good stuff from 1996 through to 2001, though. Even 1995 had a few rare stuff that were ahead of its time.

That's because before Sybex picked it up and sold it commercially, the compilation was going to be named "The Red Spot of Jupiter."

They relegated that name for the name of Episode 3 in this wad.

Oh, yes, and this is a Doom 1 megawad, and was made around the time v.1.666 was out, so there is a glitch at the menu if you have Ultimate Doom, but otherwise, is all fine.

The only things I actually think are interesting from that era mermento mori and that one underrated TNT megawad which iirc was made around the same time.

It just feels like a lot of mapping back then is bland, not much custom stuff, level design usually doesn't have a focus on aesthetics. (adding pillars or wooden beams on the sides of hallways make them look a LOT better), and stuff like the end battle always being an Icon of Sin Battle

if you can do everything in vanillaplus or boom and still be satisified, then it seems your gzdoom specific stuff is superfluous to requirements.

on the other hand if you make a reduced version and it appears unsatisfying to you, then clearly the advanced features are necessary for the experience and you should not compromise.

and we get to an interesting point.
reason why I want to go with all the fancy stuff in gzdoom is atmosphere.
I want to constantly put pressure on player in a HUGE map with plenty of monsters, without it turning into a slaughtermap and without player needing to scavenge every single bullet.
sorta D64 mood, but with more up-to-date effects like models and 3d destruction and stuff.

limit removing map is doable, but I am only considering it because of how orthodox doom community is at times.

Well, to be frank, this is a matter only you can answer. Are you interested in making an atmospheric and memorable mapset? Or are you more interested in how many people play it?
All creators have to deal with the divide of wanting to make something a specific way versus potential audience appeal.

Personally, I'd say stick with GZDoom, but I've never been interested in how many people play my stuff. Some people are more interested in how many people play their stuff and will stretch their work as wide as possible and break things down for the lowest common denominator. And other people want a compromise of both values.
In the end, though, you have to pick one.

the community is more likely to bitch about a map that demands a certain engine without reason. if you are clearly using the chosen engines features, and using them well, your work will be well-received.

Another good point to bring up is that anyone who is interested in the map would just quickly download gzdoom anyway so it's not like he would be missing out on that many players. If someone absolutely refuses to use it then they probably wouldn't be that interested in the type of thing he's going for in the first place.

I've found it interesting that this only extends to maps and not gameplay mods.
There are a lot of mods that could feasibly work on Zandronum with only a few workarounds, but obviously it'd be kind of a Dick Move to start pestering about this.

You know, with a bit of tinkering, it would probably be possible to make a sort of open-world-ed DOOM MMO-styled wad of a sort.

Hard to explain, but you walk out onto demios/phobos/hell's terrain and shit- which also gives you sub-options for little wads/pk3s people have made, and also a subtle little tutorial on how to fiddle around

As of the remake of doom, people will be curious about the old one. Graphicalities aside or not.

A fun combination is HD, plus Dark Doom, plus a good ambiance pack, plus a map set focusing on small levels with cover and small enemy counts.

You will learn to fear again. Except that it can quickly pass on into frustrating, and stock HD sounds leave a lot to be desired. That said, Level 30 is just pants shittingly terrifying with the right pack (due to heartbeat sounds) and the text that comes up.

>I chose a level at random to start

that is actually what i did here a couple of years ago, i made a list of all the maps, and chose randomly from it and crossed out maps as i beat them and posted screenshots of the intermissions.

map16 is one of the smaller ones and pretty nasty. ironically the bigger maps in plutonia are often slightly easier.

map02 is also quite tough especially when you don't know it, all the hidden buttons and a fairly obscure route don't help, you can run out of ammo easily and find yourself in a situation more difficult than it needs to be.

I'm back, and slightly more helpful now.
The Cheetahmen part you're seeing there is part of an Arcade within a secret level that parodies clan Head Quarters style maps.
The same arcade cabinet can be seen in MAP06 of the demo, albeit purely decorative and still using it's old style.

I might make this level available earlier, as the idea was to have people add their own rooms to the HQ, to make it seem more like a real clan base, that has been abandoned. But I'll post about that once I actually reach that point, and if I haven't changed directions once again regarding the mod in general.

If you're still interested
http://www.mediafire.com/download/dldizo52c4mrcv2/DIKZAK_Demo_version.7z
It's a twelve level demo. It might not have the cheetahmen section but enough other strange and unusual situations to get your psychedelic fix, without entering Terry-tier seizure inducing territory. Like a troll dungeon, infiltrating the NSA and a Immoral Cumbat section in a secret level. Complete in black and white.

tl;dr
Shitty jokewad, play at own risk.

The main issue with moving things to Zandronum isn't coding stuff differently, but testing them online and knowing some of the quirks of the engine which are different than G/ZDoom. It's easy to test things in singleplayer but way more involved to test things in multiplayer.

I don't care if someone does a few jokemaps. I like jokes. I like joking around. I even like jokemaps.
But like every other available mod, I'm going to judge it by its strengths. And if it wants to be a jokemod, the joke fucking sucks.

The joke with this is that (I assume) people think way too hard about mod/map quality, and it's trying to subvert this by starting out with something cool and then turn into utter shit.
The problem with this joke is that intentionally trying to make something shit means that, well, if you succeed then you just have a pile of shit that isn't fun, funny, interesting, or entertaining.

I usually try to save only at the start of each map. I make an exception only if I died too much, and don't feel like starting the whole level over, in that case I save before(or after) the part that's giving me trouble.

I personally try to avoid using saves altogether, only resorting to them if the level ends up being too long and too hard to have the patience for restarting the whole thing.

But, as long as you aren't saving every 20 seconds, there's nothing wrong with saving.

I'm still learning what is fair and what is bullshit and screwing around with difficulty settings. Thanks for letting me know.
Could you tell me what levels could have their difficulty boosted and such?

Regarding Babby's First Map, it will be moved to a much later Mapspot in the full version. The pacing is all over the place in the demo as I just threw the finished levels in a partly random order, thus having easy maps after harder maps and the other way around.

Have you managed to find the secret levels yet?

Nah I' haven't found any yet and am only at map 6 right now.

Anyway as far as ammo and health placement goes a perfect example of what I'm talking about is the Wolfenstein portion of map 6. Nearly every corner has the large health, shotgun, and chaingun ammo pickups laying around. I'd recommend only having like two or three in that entire section in non secret areas and then putting the rest into secret areas.

That's coincidentally the first map and section you can find a secret level in. Just check every single wall in there. The second secret level can be found from map 8 and requiers both some switch hunting and finding the right route in a series of teleporter rooms 2,2,1. If you know the flat names

Thanks for the advice. I'll move stuff around right away.

Okay I've just started out using custom CVAR's. Feels scary but it should be really useful.

Also the structure of my pk3 is getting pretty complex now, but hopefully it should make sense and not be a clusterfuck of cross-references. Speaking of which, I've seen some shit that makes BD look like OCD perfection in comparison when I've opened up some mods in slade.

Version 1.2 of the DIKZAK Demo is released!
Hooray!
Download Link should be the same:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/dldizo52c4mrcv2/DIKZAK_Demo_version.7z

Changes:
>Gave the difficulty a much needed boost.
>Fixed the toxic waste maze in MAP05, so that it actually damages you.
>Changed the Cheetahmen 2 Arcade Machine in MAP06 to it's updated look. Still doesn't work though.

To-Do:
A lot.
>Actually finish the Cheetahmen sections for both MAP06 and MAP36 that's not in the demo.
>Start working on MAP34's replacement for the SFW version.
>Fix Zone 2 and the strange Dark Succubi glitch while playing Nightmare in MAP34's normal version.
Ask permission to use sprites so I can start working on the HDoom parody section of MAP34. Having the female imps run away in disgust of your appearance instead of jumping on you like a pack of hungry wolfs.And think of something else to replace the parody if permission is not granted.
>Stop writing such huge walls of text with every release unless something actually interesting gets changed.

Well that's end of BTSXE1 niggas.

It was pretty good but I've played better. The aesthetic, while nicely and lovingly detailed, wasn't so much my thing, just from personal preference. It did give me some Quake 2 nostalgia though which was sweet. I always play my own music when playing megawads because I hate the shitty amateur custom 'music' that people make. At one point I played the Quake 2 + its expansions OST and it fit perfectly.

From memory I rank what I've played like this:

Scythe 2 > Scythe > Alien Vendetta > BTSXE1 >= Plutonia 2

The Scythes were my favourite by FAR though and I'd like to play more like them. I really fucking loved what Eric Alm did with its gameplay. Any suggestions? Cheers.

Shit's not done, balancing's still pretty fucked, and Blaz is a bit of a mess weapon wise.

The worst part is I can't really fix Blaz without doing some drastic overhauls, which I ain't doing.

The new version of Internal Conflict is out, and they (the dude making IC and a few of his friends) are testing out the new versions at night on zandronum.

A lot of things were fixed, and now it's a lot more engaging and actiony instead of campy. Instead of regen ammo you start with full ammo in weapons 1, 2, and 3; each kill now unlocks a new weapon for that round: 4, 5, 6, and 7. It seems that once you unlock weapon 4 you keep it for the rest of that map.

>everyone now starts with their use-able item (invuln armor for zombiemen, death decoy for revenant, armor for mancubus, super dodge for imp, super summon for archvile, etc.)
>each kill refills your first 3 weapons and gives you 1 item use and 1 secondary item as well as unlocks the next weapon
>Lost Soul is now a super dangerous allaha jihad
>Archvile main attack fixed, also impossible to just spam monsters all day everyday, but you start with that 1 special summon and full regular summons
>It's slightly harder to spam landmines as Zombiemen It still won't save you
>Some of the maps got minor fixes to various lifts/switches

The new changes are fantastic for preventing camping since the player with more kills will have more weapons, more options, and probably will do more damage. I think the server is still up, and if you haven't played it before then now would be a great time to start; especially with all these new changes. Plus, the maps (most of them) are fan-fucking-tastic.

I know I'm always down to play.

Shit's not done: Shit as a whole is generally unfinished and not at the state commonly referred to as "done".
Balancing's still pretty fucked: The balance between weapons is not in an admirable state and can only be described as "fucked".
Blaz is a bit of a mess weapon wise: Blaz's weapons are not clean, and are in fact very dirty and probably could use a bath. That Blazter needs a lot of polishing. Preferably by a pure, virtuous maiden.

Last thing I'll post about it for today. These enemies are coming along nicely. They work just as great as in the real game. Intentionally. Three done, Seven more to go. Can't wait to start on the Apeman!

I need to finish up monsters, implement Blaz's voice. And I feel like the mod is still pretty unbalanced because of some of the subweapons.

And finally I feel Blaz is a mess due to how convoluted his weapons are, like most people aren't aware that you can throw the sword, the life drain effects, etc.

I could just be too hard on myself though

Yeah, but I've been busy with other things.
And let's be honest, it's not like there's a massive demand for it. It's not supposed to be an end-all-be-all source of information, just a nice "hey here's a batch to get you started with things".

Still, if you really want it, I can see if I can crack it out next week or so.
