I stopped playing after I reached that Cacoroom and fell down into a pit I couldn't get out of unless I forced myself to jump. Your map is shit, just straight up shit. Like straight out of D!Zone shit. It's not 1995 anymore, you have Doom Builder 2 (and more advanced versions), an editor with a visual mode that let's you actually LOOK at what you're building: what you've made is just a long empty hallway, with only one texture on the wall for each area, no use of brightness sectors, everything looks like an oversized rectangle room - theme park with the occasional monster. THE only thing that was sort of good was the stairway with 2 revenants each waiting, because the architecture in that specific area was better and felt more alive, however even that section was repeating itself unnecessarily, and of course because of bad texturing it looked terrible.

TLDR, start from scratch and look at how maps are built in Doom, TNT or Plutonia.

Honestly i thought dark forces 2 was one of the most boring fps games i've played. i really don't know what it is but i think it's the enviroments and the guns and enemies and music that are just bland and uninteresting and the gameplay just doesn't have any oomph to it.

Half life is fun to play for me not even because of how it's narrative is bound to it's gameplay but the guns pack a punch and the enemies are really fun to fight and there's such atmosphere to the game that isn't even present in it's sequels.

If the mapset is vanilla or boom, I'll play it as intended, but if it's one I really like or if it's GZD only, then there's a chance I'll run through it again, modded.
If a new gameplay mod catches my interest, I'll usually IDKFA on Entryway and fuck around with the new things, and if holds my attention, I'll go back to a megawad that I haven't touched in a while with it. Very rarely do I try out new maps with mods, and it's usually only when many people recommend it or if it's designed for one. I played through Diabolus Ex for the first time with Hideous Destructor, and I went through Brotherhood of Ruin with GMOTA.

I don't really make any rules for myself, but I have enough technical knowledge to not hold a mapset responsible if a gameplay mod breaks something. Going into maps blind with Hideous Destructor is a totally different experience from knowing all the traps and encounters in advance. Project MSX and GMOTA are also decent for blind runs, but most other gameplay mods don't have the necessary depth of play and are better used for revisiting maps you've played before.

"Mods are not the answer" kinda makes sense since Doom and Quake already did that shit.
I'd say the "no cutscenes, camera never leaves the protagonist's view" style, which was pretty unusual at the time. You could argue it led to "cinematic" ultra-linear FPS with scripted explosions and whatnot becoming the norm, but I think designers learning to integrate that stuff with the gameplay instead of bouncing to a cutscene was a positive innovation, even if it became kind of a crutch later on.

>>6355519
I have to agree, I still really like when cutscenes are integrated with the gameplay, Half-life did this mostly seamlessly. Nowadays, even when cutscenes are part of the gameplay, they tend to find ways to strip you of control regularly like "oh an explosion knocked your character to the ground, better wait for him to look around at the chaos for a solid minute while he laboriously stands up".
Also, Half-life wasn't all that linear, there's a lot of nooks and crannies to explore and usually more than one way to approach a big fight.

Writing my thoughts on this as I go through. Not going to focus on textures or detailing (unless I have something specific I want to talk about in terms of guiding the player) because I think an ugly but well-laid-out map is a lot more valuable than an aesthetically polished but unfun to play map.

The beginning is really square and empty. I feel there's a ton of filler space without even a zero-threat monster to quickly axe and keep the player's attention.

I went down the path with the blue room first. The "maze" with the yellow keycard feels really awkward and just exists to waste time. You actually could've done something neat with it (not original mind you) if you boobytrapped the yellow keycard so the walls of the maze would lower revealing monsters after you grabbed it, but as is you fight a few non-threatening monsters, grab the key, and have to backtrack. One tip I can give you about pain elementals is the danger aspect of them only applies when there's line-of-sight between it and you; you generally want there to be some distance between them so they have time to pop off at least one lost soul or more unless the player is really proactive and stunlocks them/closes the distance. When you're right next to a pain elemental they can't produce lost souls or attack you in any way. In this section of your level, you only see the pain elemental when it's already so close to you that it won't be able to do anything, and you can just chainsaw it to death without any risk. If you, by comparison, made that room with the keycard empty, lowered the walls, and then a reasonable distance away there was a pain elemental and maybe a couple imps or zombiemen to add an additional threat—mixing high- and low-priority targets is a way to make combat encounters feel more dynamic and force the player to think, even if just on instinct, who they need to deal with first—then the maze would have more of a purpose.

>>6354940
>>6355829
I also think the arachnotron room is a bit confusing; I assumed there was something progression-related there and cleared it out only for it to just be there for the sake of the plasma gun. Having a side path with a weapon is not bad at ALL, but I think you could have done some aesthetic detailing, e.g. raised floor where the plasma gun is, to make it stand out as the "point" of the room. I also think the arachnotrons were used oddly here, the amount of cover really reduces them as threats. I never had to worry about more than one arachnotron being able to see me at once, which nullifies their danger factor; their nature as projectile-based turrets that can be stunlocked means they're most dangerous when you either have to deal with a group of them being able to see you, or when there's one/multiple at a relative distance while you have to deal with a more immediate threat like a hitscanner; the arachnotron, when focused on, is easy to deal with because of their high pain-stun chance; a shotgun blast is almost guaranteed to make them pause and a chaingun shuts them down entirely. It's when you can't deal with them immediately due to other monsters that they shine.

The room with the moving floors is not only really weird but it also breaks sound propagation so I can't hear the imps or fireballs (though that might be a GZDoom problem). That's not a good thing and you should really watch for that, unless it was fine in whatever port you tested the map in. It's good to say what port you used to make your map when asking for feedback just so people testing can use the same one. I have a similar mind about the red keycard as the yellow one; if the player needs to backtrack, something should change in the map when they grab the keycard to make the experience different. You could, as a basic example, have walls open up past the corner so when you go back there are new enemies waiting for you.

The area with the narrow platforming while enemies rain down on you is a good IDEA, and with some better execution could work. I think the problem is just that the enemies all come from one direction and also from a distance, meaning they're really not likely to hit you. You could make this more interesting if there were imps on the sides as well, and if the arena was smaller (this applies to your entire map, smaller is better unless it's designed to be large with a specific combat purpose in mind; it both reduces wasted space and makes individual enemies more dangerous since they're more likely to attack while closer).

The area afterward is the prime example of said space making enemies less dangerous. I literally just ran past everything but the revenants because the space was so open. Remember that Doomguy is FAST, and if there isn't something making him fight then the player doesn't have to at all. The revenants on the stairs are actually a good example of stopping the player from just rushing through, but due to the sheer scale of the area I still didn't have to engage with a single one of those cacodemons or hell nobles.

The sewer area leading to the blue key is just bad. It is exceptionally bad and if that other anon didn't stop playing right before it I guarnatee the bulk of his post would be talking about that area. It's monotonous, overly long, you're best off just running past the enemies in the wide areas and the narrow part with the revenants was also monotonous. Easily the worst part of the map. Also nitpick, the exit looks like the entrance to a secret from this part of the map and when I went there only to find nothing I felt bad.

The ending area is a complete clusterfuck and just felt like you throwing enemies at the player without a thought. I won't comment on it much besides that but I really need to say, twelve pain elementals is a EXTREME AMOUNT of pain elementals, especially when they're spread out so far.

Closing thoughts; like the other anon said, I don't think you can really salvage this map. Don't get too disheartened though; everyone has to start somewhere, and it's fine to make mistakes while learning. Ask any artist or musician and they'll tell you they started out horrible and only learned through practice, and that's what this map is, practicing how to make them.

For general advice, I think the best thing I can say is think about what the function of enemies is, and how they complement the design of the room you're in when picking them. Play the vanilla IWADs, play as many custom maps as you can, and while you play think about what the map is throwing at you and why it's doing so. Plutonia is probably the best example out of the vanilla games of thinking critically about what monsters DO and how to best use them; the reason it's mocked as an orgy of chaingunners, revenants and archviles is because they all force the player to deal with them in specific, unique ways compared to most monsters, and many combat encounters are built around those methods and thus heavily use those monsters. Making smaller maps, even bite-sized maps, will help you get feedback and iterate your design philosophy much quicker.

You should feel good that you finished the map at all; most people never get that far. Don't be afraid of messing up because every mistake is a learning tool, and I hope to see your next attempt at mapping in a future thread.

Thank you for the critique,will try to take it to heart and apply the design ideas you suggested and study some good map design.I think I moved with design from area to area after getting an idea for another area without really fleshing out the previous one. (The moving floors sound problem was because I silenced the sectors as to no have every tile make a sound as it moved up and down,but then it also silenced the imps.)

Question for wad creators:

My gimmick in this map is elevators that use the 'platform raise wait lower' function. The start low, a player/monster steps onto them, they go up, wait, come back down.

I've got a couple of elevators that operate the same way, but they first need to be lowered with a switch in order to be used like the others (pic related). They're intended to be used as a shortcut to revisit a location once it's already been reached the hard way.

If the player walks over the 'platform raise wait lower' linedef before the switch has been flipped and the elevators lowered, they do nothing. This is good, because I don't wait to raise the player into the skybox. Problem is, the switch then doesn't affect them, rendering them useless.

Can anyone think of any solutions?

>When Romero wandered over to id's booth, [...].

The setting was a dungeonlike military level, but when the gamer fired his gun, the yellow blast of the ammunition cast a corresponding yellow glow as it sailed down the walls. It was subtle, but when Romero saw the dynamic colored lighting, it was a moment just like that one back at Softdisk when he saw Dangerous Dave in Copyright Infringement for the first time.

Technology still too limited, from the engine intricacies to what computers could handle. At the time Doom was released there had already been a decade of 2D action games, as opposed to a year or two of 3D FPS games. If you tried to have a boss like Contra's in a 3D game, even if a simplified version of any, it would cause computers to overheat.

People used DEU very early on, DETH later and DeeP even later. When Windows rolled around, we got DoomEd, DoomCAD and WadAuthor, which is what I used a lot since I grew up on W95 more-so than DOS (I used DETH about half the time, though.)

These programs where awful to work with, constant crashing and zero streamlining to mapping such as having to trace lines around sectors to create new rooms. Moving around vectors/linedefs could break sectors entirely as well. Refactoring levels was almost impossible, was better to plan out the levels on paper ahead of time before you mapped them out.

DeuTex (DOS) and WinTex (Windows) were used to manage PWAD assets, but I didn't really touch those much myself, so I don't know a lot about them.

When I don't use save I just find myself playing so safe it becomes boring. So I don't see how saving mid-level could make the game unfun for someone. If anything, it opens multiple possibilities on how to tackle a fight.

That’s just modern websites in general. They don’t need to be small or efficient since a majority of computers and phones are able to run them, so the people who design them don’t bother spending extra time optimizing things, which leads to instances where a site or program is so badly made that it still ends up stuttering and causing issues anyway.

Most of the time I use Mysung Kite. It's a 1gig soundfont so its higher quality sounds than any of the other ones I've tested.

Airfont 380 for metal MIDIs, such as the Now That's What I Call MIDI mod, or Doom episode 1, though you should ideally be using the boosted FLAC music packs for original Doom IWAD MIDIs
> http://sc55.duke4.net/games.php#doom
or the SC-55 soundfont if your source port can't run it, like Chocolate Doom

For retro MIDIs, like those of Hell Revealed 2, try the GZDoom soundfont, or the default Microsoft MIDI soundfont Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth, or SC-55, or the soundfont that comes with PrBoom TimGM6mb

Remember that you can play the soundfonts through different MIDI players and the sounds will sound the same but the mixing is different so it will sound different. You can test out FluidSynth that comes with PrBoom and GZDoom, or VirtualMIDISynth so you can use custom soundfonts with any source port. Generally speaking, VMS sounds better imo, but there are exceptions, and one very important exception is you want to use FluidSynth with the default PrBoom soundfont when playing Going Down because the MIDIs were specifically designed for that, similar to how OG Doom used the SC-55 soundfont.

You can change MIDI-player and soundfont mid-game when playing GZDoom, but to change the FluidSynth soundfont when playing PrBoom you have to exit game and edit the config file (snd_soundfont)

You're just talking shit. Imagine saving in the middle of a Mega Man stage. It doesn't matter if Mega Man came with a built-in save feature or not, that's not the point; the point is it's much more thrilling when you actually have to deal with the consequences of your mistakes instead of immediately reloading every time.

It's not a waste of time if you enjoy the game, anon. You get a much better "high" when you tackle a level (or episode) without saves.

>It doesn't matter if Mega Man came with a built-in save feature or not, that's not the point
It IS the point, you dense motherfucker; do you think id software added a save feature to Doom just for fun? It gives you a developer-intended way of SAVING your progress in the middle of a level, compared to using something like save-states added by emulators - features NOT intended by the developers for use in normal gameplay.
It's not that I don't understand where you're coming from with building the game's tension by using little to no saves, but that is again an entirely subjective way of playing the game, and if someone wants to play on a higher skill level and utilize saves more frequently, then who are you to tell them how they ought to play like it's some kind of honoraburu bushido code?

You are very likely to have low HP and low ammo after E4M1. In fact, it could be so low that it may end up being nigh impossible for you to survive first 10 seconds. Pistol start ensures that you will be at full health and at least have some bullets instead of being close to death and with barely any ammo left.

I recently played both of them back to back on Nightmare, and am making my way through the unofficial third Mission Pack, Abyss of Pandemonium right now. Dissolution felt very much so on the easier side until the second and third thirds. What with those really obvious "secrets" of 100+ health and red armor just out there in the open. But then the second and third thirds hit, and them the game became as exhilarating as the best parts of Scourge of Armagon. I think SoA is better, but more importantly I think Scourge and Dissolution should be played together so it makes up a five episode saga. When you look at it like that, it's one of the best expansion packs an FPS fan could ask for, easily matching up to the original Quake. Very easily. You could almost call it a sequel.

Some are better about it than others i.e. shotgunners will pursue you, but crossbowmen tend to move side to side. But you're definitely misrepresenting the fact that many enemies in Fury are atop platforms or areas where they can't get down. If Doom were mapped like Ion Fury, enemies would act the same way: Attacking you from their perch. Now the counter to this would be
>Well why wasn't Ion Fury mapped better?
But I think that's an incorrect perspective/framing. E3M1, you have that narrow hallway of pinkies in a single file. Both Doom and Ion Fury are mapped to facilitate player challenge and enjoyment. Enemies don't pursue you much, but you should be moving in to kill them. Not watching them like some ornithologist.

Yeah, pwad support was basically only levels, any graphics or stuff would require you to supply full sets of sprites; ergo if you wanted to reskin the Baron, you still had to either reskin everything else, OR, patch your new assets onto your iwad file, modifying it.

99% of the time it's the loaded mods' fault. That, or someone done goofed and fucked up their load order. All people being on the same GZDoom version is also important. I've had desyncs happen due to players having different versions of the same IWAD. The possibilities are quite a few.

For what it's worth, Hideous Destructor folks regularly play MP in teams of at least 3 people and they haven't complained so far. GZDoom MP is pretty stable, to be fair. Like >>6359664 said, it's inconvenient, but works.

That Russian shitposter savant? Probably. His "Doom 4 Remake" still confuses me.
It looked like the typical, shitty Doomsday/Risen3D/JDoom fare with overly-plasticine textures and laughable models, and yet it got so much attention that game journo sites were reporting on it, the ModDB page was active, and places I'd never expect to see it, it showed up. Even when it got taken down, there were reports about it from those same sites, and it almost seemed like it was being spun into "Bethesda will no longer allow Doom mods," even though the reason it got taken down was because it contained the actual IWADs or something. Or maybe he took it down himself and somehow made up the whole Bethesda thing.
He even posted here, making weird photoshop pictures where his game had a physical copy that was being sold in Gamestop.

Think of a gameplay feature you want your level to focus on. Circle strafing? Infighting? Barrels? Cool. Then think up different ways to incentivise the player to use those mechanics.

E.g. you want them to circle strafe, so you put a bunch of imps on an island in the centre of a circular room, forcing the player to strafe around them. Jazz it up by adding some pinkies to chase the player around, and a teleporter the imps can use change their angle of attack.

when you make a sound alert, the alert will traverse all neighboring sectors recursively and alert any monsters in those sectors to you
if two sectors are vertically separated - that is to say, there's no air gap connecting the two sectors physically - the sound is blocked at that boundary
similarly, sound-blocking lines divide groups of sectors into sound regions, and only adjacent sound regions can hear each other
actual physical distance is irrelevant, as is being physically connected. if two completely separate sectors are joined together in the editor to be one sector, sound alerts will travel through that sector and propagate to both areas, despite being two separate areas physically.
