I mean, again, there's nothing explicitly saying they're NOT canon, they're just not referenced anywhere.

not even thinking about it. i've done one map this year, that's about my limit. as i always say i rather fix other people's maps than make my own. as such i may ask to take over compilation. i seem to recall thinking the packaging needed some work. last time i looked the sky texture replacement wasn't working right. probably needs some juggling of texture1/pnames lumps.

what a shame- the lack of submission. How come?
Good show that your line of work is coming along nicely.

>>4402826
Not even a clue. I think repugnus said it's left open to expansion, what with most people dealing with fatigue or something, and i'm working on roughly 5 or so maps for it.

>>4402829
Yeah, there seems to be a couple of issues with it, Still, I'd say to have multiple hands on the project for QA purposes would be spot-on, helps smooth out the rough edges and the tweaks would probably help those struggling to produce something. The bar for maps is raised so high these days we're starting to expect Fibonacci spirals.

[Anonymous No.4402925]

>>4400713
Yes. Kinda. Most things Doom are on hold due to being busy irl. I can put out a map for a project in a couple days here and there when there are concrete deadlines or a time limit but not larger projects. I fully intend to complete it (and a million other things) but I don't know when I will. I also need to decide whether to switch it to zscript; will probably depend on how soon it looks like zand will get it.

>>4402807
>You do realize it's on hold and not cancelled; so nothing's stopping you from adding on, which was Repugnus's original intent, right?
I don't know if this was his intention or not due to radio silence. It probably doesn't matter since its a group project so anyone can add or put out new releases. If someone wanted to fix RjY's sky for map01 as part of their releases that would be super.

[Anonymous No.4402938]

>>4402925
I can do that. Should be as simple as cracking the map open and plonking a skytransfer.
I haven't enough progress on my second map to consider it yet; it's technically just got some basic placements. I could always release an updated version of it including the WIP map and the Other-Map-That-Needs-A-Music-Conversion-Because-The-Programs-To-Convert-A-IMF-To-A-Mid-so-i-cant-start-on-it-yet don't work on this PC.

[Anonymous No.4402953]

>>4402925
yes precisely, my first interest is in fixing it so my sky texture shows up properly
>>4402938
>I can do that. Should be as simple as cracking the map open and plonking a skytransfer
no it's nothing to do with maps missing sky transfers, it's texture1/pnames definitions, the doom2 sky1 is not being overridden properly.
anyway i don't have time now, i'll try to find the latest version previously uploaded and fiddle with it tomorrow

[Anonymous No.4403018]

>>4402953
In case I explained myself poorly, I meant fix whatever was wrong with the textures/pnames, not that the sky itself was broken/wrong. I actually tried to add it with textures but have no idea what I did wrong; the sky shows up in the texture editor with the same name as it has in the separate file, and works when you load the file with the separate map file, but not in the compilation file. I am not the best at that sort of thing.

[Anonymous No.4403027]

>>4403018
Honestly dude, don't feel bad. Most of this shit confuses the hell out of me unless it's direct interaction between two or more chaps. I added a couple of textures in with Garosaedris; but I didn't fix the sky there. I'll need to look at the issue the next time I update it all.

If any of you wanted to start on the fleshcaves map, for lack of a better music, I was planning on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNDJPebuF1c as stated many times prior. Obviously, I can't extract it. I've tried.

I think there's a couple of conflicting textures, and I know at least one person used Rsky3 as a midtexture so there is that.

[Anonymous No.4403094]

>>4402858
Yeah I'm hoping the same too. I'll need to figure out a smooth and consistent method of making the subweapon pickups change appearance depending on which hero is looking at it. Thankfully I can just make it give the same thing to everyone, more or less.

Some days ago i posted a bigass wall of text about GMOTA, i've been enjoying the mod and i finally had time to fight the cyberdemon on scythe1 map20 and....

Yeah, nerf this fucking laser thing subweapon to death, killing the cyberdemon in FOUR SHOTS is not ok when the a full hypermode blazter barrage doesn't even stunlock him, i forgot i had it and stocked up on so much ammo i just cheesed out that level with the greatest of ease, this is by far the ONLY overpowered and outranking weapon in the entire mod, everything else is either nice or is "git gud and you kill gud" but this stank bitch is just dangerously cheesy.

[Anonymous No.4403446]

>>4403431
and nerfed, I reduced the damage individual chains of the laser and also slowed the fire rate down.

[Anonymous No.4403449]

>>4403446
Did you do something about the lingering explosions on impact?
Because those are what melted the cyberdemon.

[Anonymous No.4403453]

>>4403449
There's no damaging explosion, the heat beam is a long ass chain of projectiles. So on stationary targets, that entire chain plows into them
Blaz is quickly becoming a boss killer, and honestly I'm kinda fine with that. The other guys won't have this level of boss crippling power.

don't think i've ever got that. i seem to be very unlucky with drops, at least the sphere-in-a-box types.

also related: drops in out-of-reach places. it's kind of annoying that gmota's chain doesn't grab items. however, having said that, i have to admit i've been spoiled by the boomerang from high noon drifter.

[Anonymous No.4403548]

>>4403543
I thought about adding that feature but given how the chain works it'd mean every powerup and item would block the chain and stop you from grabbing monsters unless the path was 100% clear.

If the map is using attenuated lights then they are working as intended, well you can try to see if you are not used to regular lights trough gl_attenuate, -1 is "leave it to map preference", 0 turns all attenuated lights into normal ones and 1 turns all lights into attenuated ones.

I dont have a problem with revenants other than their speed. I think they'd be just about as dangerous if their speed was set to 7 or 8.

Fact is they can be dealt with pretty effectively if you know what you're doing: they seem to be magnets for infighting against mancubuses and arachnotrons, rocket launcher fucks whole groups of them, and the chaingun is surprisingly effective if you're willing to sit there and wait for it. And you can bait punch them with berserk.

Graf's moderation privileges on ZDF need to be revoked.

_mental_ has helped me a few times, though I don't know if he'd be able to help with those two bugs. In specific, they're both hard to track down and old, so they're buried under tons of abstraction and madness.
The first bug is that HudMessages somehow use the garbage collector wrong (or the garbage collector marks them wrong) and so they get free'd right before being written to and the game crashes.
The second is that save games corrupt the ACS string table, somehow. This one makes me especially salty because Graf refuses to look into it because he doesn't like the compiler I use. Which is bull, because it happens in any mod with ACS, as I've found through my own testing.
I might resubmit both of them or try to get _mental_ or dpJudas to help, I know the former has been around as long as HudMessage has, and the latter has been around as long as the new JSON-based save system has.

Each class will have its own playstyle and weapons, etc. Cosmetic classes are an interesting idea, but I think they should be more diverse than that.
There are 7 planned (including Marine and Cyber-Mage), but I'm only promising a third one, Informant. His playstyle will be mostly melee based, with bullet weaponry for sniping or big blasts of damage.

>>4404506
The first seems like a basic mistake, but it's eluded Kate, Kyle873, Graf, Randi, and myself for at least 5 years. Nobody has any idea what's causing it.

Not many people know this but Dark Forces has a working stealth system. All of the enemy AI filters their perception through a vision system that determines the player's visibility based on their distance and surrounding sector lighting. It's almost entirely unnecessary but in the 90's developers actually cared about the games they were making. So when a little 8 year old child played a game, they applied real world logic in what they percieved as realistic at the time. And it actually worked.

When we were making Quake III: Arena, John Carmack found Orbb very disturbing. The character just didn’t seem like it should be running around in the Quake world firing rockets at you.

John Cash (a former programmer at id) relayed to me one day that Orbb freaked Carmack out so much that he lost games because of it. For a period of several days we all tested this theory by chasing poor Carmack around on the tournament levels with the very disquieting and (apparently) creepy Orbb.

These gray hellknights are mean mamajamas.

Highly dangerous if you're not quick on your feet or have cover.

There's two BFG9000's in the shareware episode Infinite Teeth, and only one of them you're meant to actually get (the other is a deathtrap). In the secret level Hirntod, when you pick it up, you're put face to face with a Spiderdemon.

You're in a straight alley with no cover in this encounter, there's a little bit of cover, but it's in damaging floor (blood). You have a brief window of time to blast him to moon (no, not this one, the other one), before his chaingun cannon grinds you to bits.

So here's a REALLY cool trap, the yellow keycard is in the center of a spiral with damaging blood floor.

So what you do is that you grab a radsuit from a previous room, then blast your way through to the center, and grab the key. BUT WAIT! The floor is rising! You have to hurry out of here or you get crushed into pulp in a second!

But you don't have the time to actually go back the way you came, you have to let the floor rise enough that you can reach an alcove you saw on the way here, to step into a teleporter and escape.

I remember arguing with a teacher in school once was was like "anon why do you always draw dicks on things, it's so juvenile".

So I said that dick drawing crosses all cultural barriers, everybody gets it without needing language or nuance. Random cock drawing is also pure art, it's not done for fame or money (I drew them thinking nobody would find out it was me) and the cock pictures is also a form of rebelling against authority.

I also got out of trouble once when the whole class was busted because somebody drew a huge dick on a wall and the teacher had seen so many of mine that he could tell it wasn't me (and it really wasn't).
Then I got busted again later and nearly kicked out because dick drawing took off bigtime on our floor and people kept writing "by [my name]" next to random cocks and I had to explain why would I do that for aforementioned reasons and I draw my cocks differently anyway.

The platform to shoot from is pretty far and I'm not sure if the Romero head is close enough to the wall to make it easy enough to splash damage it.

I'm sure the change will make it work fine. Just about everything else was fine in AV except for the slaughtermaps made me really prioritize having the Earthquaker and using Fatal draw slashes.

>tell me more about that floor

A trick i learnt back in 2010 if you use a pure black texture as reflective floor and stack a 3D floor of 1 pixel height right above it with a PNG texture that has transparency you get this effect.

>and the green computer monitors up top
My Industron maps takes a timeline very far away from main Doom, while Doom is mainly in the beginning of the 22 Century, those maps in around 27 Century, monitors are rarely used, if they are is probably it is attached to a machine to show its status, otherwise everything else is holograms.

TL;DR those are no monitors, they are holograms.

This mapset has 2 maps with Industron visuals, the first and the last ones.

Little curiosity thing: Those two maps is the ones who established Industron as is, i mean they were really the first maps i made out of this visual some weeks after i watched Tron: Legacy back in 2010 in the release day on theaters.

Do you have any particularly fond Doom memories?

I have two.
First is playing through Plutonia, Hell revealed 1 and 2 while listening to a huge playlist of Metallica and other heavy metal music for the first time, you could really see where the art direction was coming from.

Second would have been playing Unloved late at night and it was raining constantly for a few nights. Sucks Unloved II was never finished.

It's gotta be a bug in the demo file someplace, I just checked myself and it does the same thing. The actual map has the sound set proper, but the demo is wrong- maybe the demo was recorded first and they changed the file for the map music later, knowing that since it isn't time or entity related it wouldn't mess up the demo (which is just a big set of instructions)?

Sometimes happens when you've got brushes aligned at odd angles, I think. Did you pick standard or Valve format when making the map?

Assuming you're using ericw's compiling tools, I think there's also an option to use old-style texture alignment in qbsp someplace; check the documentation, I think it's −nooldaxis. Worth a shot.

can anyone reccomend any g/zdoom mods that completely overhaul the gameplay (no longer an fps) I recall some guy made some rts demos a while ago, one being set in space, didnt work that well though was nice idea. Also there was zkart but that still functioned the same at its core as normal doom.

Look up a tool called PakExplorer, it's able to read, extract from, and add to Q1 pak files. Later games like Q3's paks are just zip files with a different extension, but Q1 is proprietary.

Some people dislike the gimballing, extra details, and such, but I just think that's mostly b/c of nostalgia goggles making them like the more minimal style.

But easily the biggest problem most people have is the much larger levels that lack direction leading to back-tracking and getting lost nearly every level.
