help my blockmap is corrupted, how do i fix
if i delete it doombuilder doesn't generate a new one

Managed to find some time yesterday.
Made different animation sets for semi/burst. Semi kicks up like a regular pistol and the burst fire rather pushes back before kicking up slightly. If nobody has any grave criticism concerning the semi/burst, I would leave it like that. Next up: Mode switch animation and muzzle effects (you have already seen a placeholder smoke after sustained fire).

reposting the remastered quake soundtrack
if anyone has complaints or problems running it, I honestly dont know why, it runs fine on my pc, I've tested it with quakespasm, quakespasm spiked and vkquake, mark v doesnt seem to be running them though, so sorry mark v users

>>6972041
Looks x10 times better
Maybe add some rib/detail onto the circular thing on top on the idle state.
Final smoke looks too cartoony and out of place IMO. Remove the bright border, smooth out the transition (use eraser with 0 hardness)

>>6972041
The sprites and animations are looking much better, though you'll want to cut a few frames as the weapon kicks up. It should be faster as it goes up, then have it come back to a rest a little slower to help sell the power of the weapon.
You're getting there though.

>>6972041
Ah fuck I shoulda been a little more specific. Cut a few frames as it kicks up for the semi-auto, and maybe use a few of those fully kicked up sprites after a burst. The burst is excellent as is though. Nice touch with the smoke.

>>6972041
The muzzleflash should have a few slightly different variants that it cycles through. There's also no need for the ludicrous amount of smoke when we've been using smokeless powder for over 130 years and that looks like shit. You'll get it eventually.

>>6972060
>>6972083
Anons, you should really read a post to the end. Yeah, smoke looks like ass and currently it's only a placeholder, and muzzle fire is also on the list. Instead of the smoke I want to do a heat effect from the hot barrel after sustained fire (I don't know the english term for that), although I don't quite have an idea how to pull it off.

>>6972070
I actually had more frames in the burst originally, but I thought it looked kinda weird, so I decreased the number of frames again. But using less frames for the semi kickup was a good idea, it certainly looks snappier now.

>>6971742
DWELL and Raven Keep are pretty nice.
Unfortunately both suffer from "where the fuck am I supposed to go now" syndrome in the more open ended areas, where there are like 9 MASSIVE paths to explore, but you are running around across 8 because entrance to path 9 looks exactly like 3,4 and 5 and you keep thinking you've just been there and keep running past it.

>>6972110
Brightmaps maybe? or a translucent overlay that could cover the area around the gun to give a bit of a wavy "heat distortion" effect? Either way, I like the direction you're going with the effects, and the general burst animation is looking solid so far.
On what >>6972068 said, they're referring to the acceleration/deceleration of the animation. The start should be the slowest, the middle fastest, and the end the longest duration: It makes the velocity look much more powerful and natural, like its taking a forceful kick and your hand is normalizing the pressure as a response. Works even better with the recoil stabilizer built into the gun.

>>6972145
Sorry, on what I said about animation, that was more of an in general thing. Having the start be fast is also good in this case,

Haven't mapped in years, getting back into it for the time being at least. Textures are all placeholder ofcourse.

Can these mods be loaded onto PRBoom+?

Hello folks, anyone here has any experience playing PRBoom on a 3DS?

I can make it run but I cant load PWADS or save the game

hey heretical doom guy ---

i'm the anon that asked about balance. i tried it out myself with sunlust, and noticed a few things:

- the dash is cool but seems not so good for standard crowd control techniques. not sure if the tight combat in sunlust is really possible.

- the weapon randomization is a cool solution to how to map the heretical doom items to the doom items, but it makes pistol starts pretty impossible (sometimes you just get weapons that don't work); i realize you might not care about pistol starts, though.

- many encounters seem tuned to the specific weapons of doom, especially the double barrel, so i'm not sure how possible things will ever really be.

that said, it's a wonderful mod and i enjoyed using it; this might be far from its intended use case, and of course if it's genuinely different from regular doom gameplay (which it should be) than it can't be used as a drop-in.

side note, i never use gzdoom (last time many years ago?), and somehow my vertical view slowly crawls upwards over time? has anyone experienced this? i had to enable freelook to manually fix it, which gave me all sorts of sperg attacks

Guys is it bad that I'm making my maps too 3D (i.e. using too many 3D floors and interactive portals)?

>>6972350
>somehow my vertical view slowly crawls upwards over time?

prob the guns have recoil so that happens.

>>6972368
For purists? Yes. For modern players? No. For those inbetween, Maybe

>>6972368
If hte map is good then it's ok.
if the map is bad then its lol

>>6971807
Two methods. One is to simply use your source port to take a screenshot of the titlescreen. Source ports have a screenshot hotkey. On GZDoom it's PrtScn by default, but for PrBoom you have to go into the options menu and choose a key, and for Chocolate/Crispy you need to run the setup.exe and choose a hotkey.

The other method is to use Slade to open the wad, find the TITLEPIC, double click it, and change it into a .png file. If the wad comes with it's own color palette it's much simpler, but if it does not, you need to change it to PNG (Paletted), select Doom/Doom in the drop down menus, Convert, click the little X by the TITLEPIC name and choose Save, right click the TITLEPIC in the wad, Export as PNG, then when you are done, click the X by the wad name and DO NOT SAVE CHANGES. Pic related.

Then import that picture into Doom Launcher by selecting the wad, selecting Screenshots at the bottom, and Select new file

>>6972184
Looks solid so far. Only issue I noticed is that the blue keycard might have some grab issues in GZDoom (GZ collision has less reach than vanilla/Boom).
>>6972368
As long as it's good no one will give a shit. If anything there's a lack of good UDMF maps that don't go ham with scripts.

hiss

>>6972184
Progress oh boy. Having fun https://a.uguu.se/docndc.webm

>>6972465
Yeah, I noticed that and in the webm I also see that there's issue with the green armour in the blue room. Moved them all forward a bit.

Since 2048 units still isn't on idgames, I'd like to report a visual bug in map01.

You know, instead of playing this shit game you could be playing Genshin Impact. It's based, redpilled and even anti-cringe!

>>6972605
Yes. Reread these posts >>6970818 >>6970841
Vanilla Smooth Weapons works in DOS so it will work in PrBoom.
Doom Sprite Fix requires a limit-removing port, so Crispy/PrBoom/etc
PerK's Hi-Res SFX works in Chocolate Doom and beyond; I haven't tried it on DOS but I think it should work. I haven't tried it in DOS because while using it in Chocolate Doom I found that the hi-res sounds clashed with the lo-res graphics.

Again, I stress that Doom Sprite Fix has a .wad file and a dehacked file, the dehacked file doing some minor things like making the cyberdemon full-bright when firing rockets. This dehacked file works flawlessly with vsmooth.wad when using Crispy Doom, but you cannot use this dehacked file and vsmooth.wad when using PrBoom because they clash and it causes buggy chaingun behavior (specifically it will take twice as long to switch weapons when using chaingun) - these mods work flawlessly in Woof as well so that's another reason to use Woof for Boom maps. Woof doesn't have an OpenGL option like GLBoom, though, so you will still want to use GLBoom for the super-good-looking maps like Eviternity and Preacher, though Boom maps like Eviternity, Preacher, Lunatic, Valiant, etc, already have custom weapons and/or monsters so you do not want to load mods with them anyway or you get game-breaking bugs

>>6972037
plz help

>>6972656
Eviternity has broken graphical effects with GL Boom.

>>6972656
random comment, i feel vanilla smooth makes tyson maps a good deal easier? somehow i can automatically line up punches thanks to the extra frames, whereas i have to really concentrate without it ... is this your experience too?

>>6972720
Re-install doombuilder and doom?

>>6972721
Ah, I do remember the sky looking all borked on map26. Any other errors?
>>6972775
Hmm that is not my experience but I can see where you're coming from. I spent a lot of time practicing punching out revenants in Chocolate Doom (Scythe map11) so I learned the timing that way

>>6972656
what about smoothdoom?

>>6972838
I never used it but it's a .pk3 file so I automatically know it's for GZDoom only. Also the Smooth Doom thread is on the ZDoom forums so that's another hint. AFAIK, Doom will only read .wad files, and ZDoom is required for .pk3's and .zip files

>>6972837
Woof also has issues with some textures/polygons not being divisible by 2 and just straight up disappearing.

prBoom+ with -width 856 -height 480 is my method of getting the crispy experience with boom wads.

>>6972848
oh. sorry. I only use GZDoom. My bad.
With that said those alternative more vanilla compliant alternative do look good. I will bear them in mind, thank you.

>>6972854
Smooth Weapons Enhanced uses the same sprites as Vanilla Smooth weapons (both come from another PerK mod IIRC), but it also has some extras, like the chaingun barrels keep spinning for a second after you stop shooting, and you can choose between left/right handed or brown or black gloves (to match the box cover art)

Alright, how do you people like this:

>Changed muzzle flashes
>Changed semi auto frames
>Added some kinda heat shimmering effect

I am really satisfied with the semi auto now, I will leave it like that.
The burst fire still looks a little bit weird imo, but changing frames around didn't help (and it makes the whole attack extremely long-winded). At least the muzzle flashes look ok now, I think.
I also added a heat shimmering effect that you might be able to see at the end of the video. This burst fire mode works a bit different than irl, as you can just keep the trigger pulled and it goes blamblamblam. BUT if you do that for too long, you accuracy will suffer, as you can see by the higher vertical spread when letting it rip.
Also, after that time, the barrel will be pretty hot, naturally, so you'll get some distortion above the gun.
I did that by drawing black waves, blurring them a bit and setting the alpha so you could just still see the dark shades. It is noticeable on bright background and basically invisible on dark background.
If anybody has a better idea how to do that, I'm all ears.

>>6972914
Also made a better Judge sprite

Greetings, everyone.

>>6972914
Excellent work. You catch on fast.

>try out shadow warrior
>kicking my shit inside out compared to quake and doom 2

>>6972914
Only issue I see is that the muzzle flash on burst fire doesn't represent how fast and how many shots you're firing. It just looks like you only shot once.

>>6972942
Use grenades and rocket launcher as much as possible, shotgun is a workhorse too. In fights you either kill shit fast or get the fuck out of the room you're currently in so you can fire grenades into it.
Sword is fucking strong too, good for killing rippers, single lower tier ninjas, and especially coolie ghosts, just standing over their corpses and slashing will kill them instantly as they get back up.
Fists are good for wasps and recovering health against those training dummies

> crispy doom supports widescreen assets now
It's beautiful.

>>6972943
I'd assume sound and case ejection could solve that

>>6971739
So let me get this straight from anon's yesterday pic
https://github.com/yquake2/yquake2/issues/612
the Yamagi team DOESNT Support Knightmare's 3.24 patch, which is even used by GoG, and it fixes all of the game's flaws on the steam, retail and Bethlauncher versions, or even anything that increases the limits of Q2's dreaded mapping limits like Q1 had til Dorkplaces and quakespasm.
also it has issues with old mods unlike 3.24.

i have nothing against the source port but it feels stupid, mainly for map makers.

>>6972942
You can actually tank quite a lot of damage in continuous play given the amount of portable medikits they give you.

>>6972924

>>6972943
Just for you, anon.

>>>/wsg/3644771

>>6973057
oh that's much better, amazing what sound can do

>>6972914
That muzzle flash is much better. Looks great. Though, gotta be honest I feel your gun sprite before than anon made that 3D model actually looked better. Had better shading and the dial was more defined. You can kinda barely see it now. But you can't please everyone.

>>6973098
That's a dangerous amount of wide anon, if we go much wider the demons might find a way to escape the window and enter our computer

>>6973097
Right?

>>6973109
Well, the mode switch is the next thing to be done, what you can see in this clip is just a placeholder (I already fixed the six fingered man). Although I really don't think that the dial looks worse now that it looked before.

>>6973057
Dude that's awesome!

>>6973057
When's [DOUBLE WHAMMY] ?

>>6972924
>tfw I didn't get a chance to troll decino with my teleport puzzle

is there a vanilla friendly gore mod? nashgore shits itself and crashes on any port using software rendering. droplets is the only one that works so far but it's too subtle

>vr server is down
nooo i was so close to beating 2048 units

>>6972824
It seems to be building other levels fine though.

I remembered someone asking to play as monsters.
https://youtu.be/SzL7Cm3QodU

>>6973292
Just download it. You're supposed to be starting with just a pistol every level anyways

>>6973305
What's really irking me is I had this problem before and fixed it, and don't remember how.

>>6973324
It's fine if you play continuous as well.

> want to work on my doom wad
> there's a hurricane outside
Dammit. Also I feel slightly dizzy, I hope it's not Covid

>>6972350
Dash was actually a bug thats being removed in next week's update. It was leftover from something I was testing and intended to remove, but I always play with autorun on so I didn't notice it until a while after release when someone brought it up.

The only weapons that should be randomized are the Phoenix Rod vs the Firemace, both of which play a similar role (rocket vs grenade, essentially.) I could see it being possible to get screwed if the map gives you a rocket launcher expecting you to snipe enemies, but otherwise both should work in similar capacity with different approaches. Also yeah, the mod isn't intended for pistol start :(

The Ethereal Crossbow is actually a swiss army knife of both doom shotguns and then some. If you press Reload, it switches firing types between single and double bolt. Single primary is the normal shotgun spread, while altfire is a single bolt that functions like a slug essentially. Double bolt single fire is like the super shotgun, and doublt bolt altfire is double the amount of shards as that. I specifically designed it to be super versatile like that because I know how much Doom maps love their shotgun shells.

as for the last note, yeah a lot of weapons have recoil and weapon hop which changes the pitch, since the mod was designed with mouselook in mind. You can disable the recoil in the options and won't change the screen any (barring a handful of techniques that have set ones, like the spinning attack with the melee staff.)

I'm glad you enjoyed giving it another go though anon, I know the mod had a bad rep for being too easy and being a fork of a BROOTAL mod, but I'm hoping the direction its grown in over the years can help more people enjoy it.

>>6973348
It's probably just a gas leak.

Is there a Rugrats themed mod?

>>6973364
fucking hope not

>>6973364
I want to say no, but go look at the idgames archive and tell us what you find.

>>6973364
>shooting babies

>>6973401
Could work as a Chex Quest like mod with the gore removed and silly weapons.

>>6973407
I unironically liked how the old south park fps used stuff like dodgeballs and a nerf crank repeater to make the weapons "less violent." Granted, then a cow lands ass first on your face and chickens shit snipe you from a mile away, but what can ya do?

>>6973423
It's a good aesthetic, yeah. I'm glad there are still some modern games like Splatoon keeping the spirit alive in some way.

>begin quake mission pack 2
>can't even beat the introduction

>>6973486
someone got quaked

Is there a wad that makes a big use of voodoo dolls, where the objective is to make sure the player finishes a map while protecting the voodoo dolls?
Maybe even give him the option to occasionally raise/lower walls to protect the dolls

>>6973507
I don't believe monsters actually attack voodoo dolls on purpose.

>>6972942
That seems to be a common thing between id and Build shooters; playing one like the other will get you killed.

>>6973486

>>6972041
The green glove and blue arm are way too bright. Other than that, I'd say its looking pretty gud.

>>6973164
>Double Whammy
NEVER EVER
Sorry anon, I always hated double whammy (and I don't want to code what's necessary for it to work). I already took artistic liberty by not including ricochet. Although coding it wouldn't be much of a problem (I actually have a proof of concept lying around), I can't see it properly used in Doom. Enemies won't take cover or hide behind corners from you, and even then actually hitting anything with a tiny bullet is pretty hard.
At least the other modes have a purpose here. With a proper enemy AI in a 3D game, ricochet would probably be lots of fun.

>>6973581
Wrong shade on the glove, maybe, but not too bright. Artistic choice; it's also not consistent in the comics.
Arm IS too bright though, yeah, I have it on my list. I actually wanted to use my own hands in operator gloves, but I couldn't find them anymore, so it's colorized Doomguy hands. This is a Doom mod after all :^)

I downloaded the free 20th anniversary Quake episode Dimension of the Past from the Mega in the OP, and it comes with music, but the episode doesn't come with music from the official download. Anyone know what music this is?

Also the episode comes with translucent water even in software mode which I haven't seen before, pic related

The official download for Dimensions of the Past comes with a batch file to launch the game in WinQuake, so I downloaded WinQuake just to see if the water is translucent there as well, and it is not, unsurprisingly. What is surprising is the game is virtually unplayable in WinQuake at 1280x1024 resolution because of the terrible framerate

>>6973583
I'm curious as to how incendiary would work. Does Doom even support persistent decay damage on monsters?

>>6973620
the music is from Ghosts, an intrumental NIN album. it's in the tags.
translucent software water is some MarkV magic. you can get it in vanilla maps too, with "r_wateralpha" below 1 and either "r_novis 1" or watervised map replacements.

>>6973651
I just took stuff from some flamethrower. A flame sprite and continuous a_explode. It won't stick to anything or anyone, but for Doom purposes it's enough.

>>6973662
wtf? for me, r_wateralpha has been set to 0.5 as the default all this time and only the water in dopa shows up as translucent

>>6973507
I've considered making something like that before, but voodoo dolls don't actually work quite like that. Health that the player picks up doesn't actually heal the voodoo doll, so you can easily get a situation where the hud says 50% health but the player is still "dead". You could avoid this by just building a map with no health pickups but that's going to limit the length and complexity of anything pretty significantly. Also yeah monsters won't aggro on a voodoo doll, but you could still build a level like the mancubian candidate.

>>6973704
yes, and original maps assumed the water is opaque, so they cull whatever's behind it regardless of cvars that didn't even exist at the time.
you need to disable that culling first, with r_novis.

>>6973669
Neato.
Are Klegg going to make an appearance?

>>6973720
Depends. If I can find anything I can sell as Kleggs, sure.

http://www.markshan.com/knightmare/downloads.htm

>>6973620
>>6973662
this looks like Saturn and OG sonic water, which needed the tv NTSC or PAL dithering to make it work

Can someone help me find a game?
My friend had an Amiga growing up, and he had a game there was a vertically split 2 player FPS game. I just remember it being dark and brown.

>>6973819
Death Mask?

will it ever be topped?

>>6974026
If you specifically mean vanilla mapsets? Probably not, you literally cannot go further than some maps went without crashing the game.

anyone that got experience with doom launcher know how i can get strife working with the voices without needing to launch voices.wad using strife1.wad? i tried putting them in the same zip file and importing that as an iwad and while voices does show up in the files to be loaded it does not work. i assumed it was an load order error but even if i unselect strife voice.wad the game wont start and gives me a playpal not found error.

>>6974119
heres the specific error.

>>6974026
Proper widescreen assets would be pretty nice.

>>6974146
Did it get any when the Bethesda port updated?

Has anyone else gotten FPS drops in Sigil with prboomplus? It's only in very specific maps in specific areas, which is weird.

>>6974149
Nah, only Double Impact, No End In Sight, Deathless, Plutonia, and TNT got the widescreen treatment. Sigil, BTSX 1 and 2, and Rekkr don't have widescreen assets.

So I just had an idea for a map, and, well...
Are there limits to the following things, and if so, what are those limits? Using the GZdoom port
>map size
>number of sectors
>number of unique sector tags
>script length
>number of sectors with moving floor and ceiling at the same time

>>6974119
Strife is an iwad. It looks like youre trying to run it as a pwad. Just put strife1 & voices.wad (with those names) into gzdoom's folder, open gzdoom, and select strife as the iwad.

>>6974171
The limits are so high you won't have to worry about them. Performance is the actual concern.

>>6974184
i suppose thats one way to do it. its weird solution though.

>>6972348
Bumping for you, brother

>>6973307
This would be sick in deathmatch

>>6974191
I see, thanks. My idea was to make a level that has you start in a small room with a button and a door. Behind the door is an absolutely gigantic room which would be divided into an enormous amount of sectors of 128x128. When you press the button in the spawn room, a script runs that generates a maze, and then spawns in all the Things. After the generation is done, the door opens and off the player goes. Want to do it to challenge myself mainly, will give it a start tomorrow since it's late euro hours

So, all you guys who worked on 2048 Units Of /vr/, how would you feel about releasing the official version of the .wad on idgames with the DeHacked guns patch integrated into the .wads, then also releasing one without them as a 'vaccinated' edition, playable with just straight vanilla or whatever optional mod people wanted?

There's really not any particularly good reason as to why, I just think it would be cool to see the new guns being used when speedrunners play the levels.

Yes. It's very easy to top a mapset that has a single theme and monotone gameplay for 25 levels.

>>6974283
All of the maps were balanced with vanilla weapons in mind, so I don't really agree with that being the "default" wad.

>>6974317
That's a pretty good point against.

>>6974193
Thats the same way it works for any other iwad like doom2 or hexen, except it also automatically loads the voices wad if you have it.

>>6974317
>>6974335
The only difference is that the pistol fires slightly faster. Everything else is purely cosmetic

>>6973348
You might have that benign vertigo.
I had a bout of that like a month ago, and a tiny case of it now. It usually goes away p quick.

>>6974026

>>6974356
Mostly. The chaingun fired like in like a 3rd salvo instead of 2, didn't it? Or was that just the preliminary version?

>>6974360
I was actually having neck soreness yesterday so that might actually be it. Thanks for the tip.

is there a guide in how to set up a server? I followed the Doomseeker based off of the zandronum wiki, is there any other way to get started?

Do I have to purchase a public IP?

>>6974383
Its initial burst fires 4 bullets instead of 2, which is hardly balance-breaking.

When the optional weapons mod was first proposed, no one knew that someone would used dehacked trickery to make a non-gzdoom version of the weapons, almost making it a Vanilla Smooth Weapons mod with new sprites. I think it'd make the megawad that much cooler

>>6974283
I don't mind it. For transparency though, I'm the guy that already said so on the DW thread

>>6974283
What is that image supposed to mean

>>6974451
So the only actual gameplay changes is that the pistol is a little bit faster, and the chaingun has a four round burst instead of two?

>>6974552
I'm the guy who made the Decorate set, while we're at it. I think it'd be cool, but I'm also apprehensive about it and don't want to foist it on people.

glorious peanut gallery missing texture screenshot attached

>>6974745
I'm not sure what causes that to happen, there's no kind of blockmap or node error on or around that spot.

Wait just a second...

That's... that's two different linedefs occupying the same space, facing different directions. Yeah, there was something wrong with that spot after all.
I think I can fix this pretty easy, actually.

>>6974769
It's been approximately 240 seconds, anon

>>6974764
oh interesting. i just checked in gzdoom and it's not there (above was glboom). okay, i'll stop bringing this up.

glorious 2048, excited to see it on idgames!

>>6974784
oh wow. thanks for checking

>>6974745
Damn it, "missing QFLAT02" error in Defiled Waters, now a missing texture in Peanut Gallery. How do I fix my maps, bros?
Also what source ports/complevels do these appear in? I hadn't seen anything about these errors until today.

>>6974816
I fixed the error in Peanut Gallery by merging each pair of the sectors with the tag 32 (there was a similar issue on the right one, only the sectors there were already merged), then deleting the superfluous double linedefs. It seems to work like it should now.

Not familiar with the QFLAT error, anyone willing to fill me in on that?

>>6974816
for peanut gallery: complevel 9 glboom. gzdoom didn't show it. it might be a driver thing even, opengl craps when two flats are on top of each other? i didn't check software rendering in prboom+

defiled waters i can't remember if i saw one....

anyway i enjoyed the map, it was pretty tough and i had to infight a lot to conserve ammo.. thanks <3

>>6974816
oh actually last i checked there's still a semi-softlock that you can't get back to the starting area, which means you can't backtrack for 100% secrets................ but that's not a huge deal

>>6974816
Using the Map Analysis Mode, we find that QFLAT02 refers to an unknown QFLAT02 texture applied to a number of linedefs, since Vanilla and Boom doesn't recognize flats as wall textures, and vice versa (ZDoom format levels will, however); this comes out as invalid. Deleting these invalid textures (which are on surfaces not rendered anyway), should solve this problem.

What did MBF do when reaching this level, did it actually crash or something?

Now, does anyone have any other bugs to report for 2048? State map number as well, please.

I just played the zerstorer mod for quake on nightmare, have any of you played it? I think it was pretty good for the most part, it's hard as shit sometimes and it sucks that two levels are cutscenes, the new weapons are good too but the new rocket launcher is useless simply because you get it at the final level
I rate it an 8/10, maybe an 8.5 because of that shotgun

>>6974914
MAP13. First there's this (in GZDoom). Second, I remember someone doing a playthrough on youtube and noticing that trees do not teleport properly and instead get huddled up at the end of the scrolling sectors. I swear I made sure they teleport, at least in prBoom+, but apparently they don't, so can you please look into this?

>>6975142
I fixed the trees teleporting in the last update. What's the other issue?

Another thing is, did we fixed Zandro compatibility in Decorate 2048 guns? I can do it myself, but it is really easy to do, basically you need to edit two lines or so.

>>6975154
>>6975159
Well you get the idea.

>>6975159
>>6975167
Drawing a sector around them (and hiding the new linedefs from the map), seems like it'd fix that.
What line changes would need to be done for Zandybam compat?

>>6975181
Can't remember exactly, but just try running it with Zandro and then it will tell you what is wrong. That's how I did it.

>>6972041
Remarkable nonce. You've done it lad. It's great.

>>6975195
I don't have Zandybam, are you willing to boot it up and take a look for me? I'm about to pass out from a lack of sleep.

>>6975225
1. You need to replace A_FireProjectile with A_FireCustomMissile in Rocket2048 and FUG2048
2. You need to remove +ZDOOMTRANS flag in 2048PlasmaBall
3. You need to remove all "attenuate 1" lines in GLDEFS

Seems to be it.

- Make the current primary a secondary that spends cells, and make new primary where you use it as regular saw.
- Throw it at enemy, and then you need to go pick it up.
- Press secondary to remove the chain and use it as a whip, press again to awkwardly put it back.
- Actually be smart and use your spare chain as a whip. You can get a spare chain if you find a second chainsaw.
- If you have a working chainsaw in your inventory, it will constantly make an annoying enemy-alerting noise, and you may hurt yourself when changing weapons. Use the secondary to kill the engine or to start it again.

Also been working on getting these canibalistic bastards working properly, when low on health they'll look for weaker enemies and eat them to restore their health. If there aren't any nearby, they try to get their health from the player instead.

>>6975794
Sounds like a cool idea

>>6975593
Years ago, I made a Zandronum mod that had a score and extra lives system, as well as "upgrades" for weapons and more attacks for monsters. Now I'm remaking the mod with just the score and lives system to make it compatible with other mods, and I might make separate mods for the other stuff in the future.
Also it can store the highest score now.

>>6975796
Thanks. So far I have it so that they're uninterruptible when eating enemies, but the player can knock them away to avoid taking the brunt of the damage/deny the healing. Main issue I'm having is with them chasing down their target, they seem to wander aimlessly sometimes which makes it a bit ineffective unless there are a lot of enemies nearby.

Also, Iron Liches will try to turn you into a chicken when they're low on health. Just in case their improved potency and speed on their normal spells wasn't bullshit enough :)

>>6974914
Minor issues I think could use improvement:

MAP09: Precipice HQ (after starting area)
MAP19: Trifecta (in the red key path)
Walls textured with huge thick bricks being visibly thin looks wrong.

MAP15: Caliginous Cauldron
Yellow key door revenant ambush can be triggered without dropping down, ending up in them bunching up behind the door, possibly preventing dropping down with infinite height.

MAP16: Ghoul Grotto
Berserk secret can be reached and picked up without triggering the secret line. Maybe put it right behind the door.

MAP20: Baal's Coliseum
The archvile pillar encounter sucks with pistol start because you likely have no good weapons by then. Sure, you've been given a rocket launcher earlier with a total of four rockets (on UV), but also been very tempted to use them immediately at the horde attacking you, not save for an unknown encounter later. Using the pillars to hide reliably enough to kill him with weak weapons is imo VERY difficult to pull off without specifically practising it, which would be particularly unfun for saveless players because the map is so linear and the earlier parts are a grind to play repeatedly.
Solution idea #1: just give the player a bunch of rockets or access to the SSG before the encounter
Solution idea #2: increase the amount of pillars to 9 and make them go cyclically so that two thirds of them are up at all times, which might make hiding behind easier

>>6975602

You mean custom ammo or just "one gun with different firemodes"? Apart from the Lawgiver I made a proof of concept for a pistol that you can switch to use all the regular ammunition with their respective attacks.

I don't feel it's appropriate of me to just apply aesthetic changes like that to someone else's map without their input. I'll fix that which is straight up broken somehow, not working like the author intended, or causes softlocks.

That's another where I don't want to fuck with the author's intent. I suppose you may be right about it being narrow in its margins, but it is UV, and you're doing pistol start, so you're going for the most challenge already by that metric.

Maybe I could add a box of rockets, but I'd rather hear the level author's input on that before I do anything like that.

>>6976071
>really its just a bunch of different weapons disguised to look like its the same gun
Is that by design or not? Because that's how my original decorate Lawgiver in 2017 was set up, but it was really convoluted and complicated. If not, you can have a look at the Lawgiver code, it's just one gun with one custom fire function that calls a different attack depending on the firemode. I don't have the link at hand right now, you might be able to find the latest version in one of the last threads.

I'm not bartekmil but I can guarantee the answer is No, as it should be. Dispatching the archvile with rockets instead of maneuvering the level's clever and difficult mise-en-scene as intended would be a tragedy.
Barring anon's two legitimate concerns, the time for the kinds of critiques he's making was July. It is now October.
To that anon- if you're having trouble, create a save and practice it, the same way you would with a difficult segment from any WAD. Like the similarly tricky archvile fight in MAP 19 of Sunlust. No one is holding a gun to your head making you UV pistol start every map with no saves, and with no practice.
There's a timing to the pillars. Learn it. If you want, you can even manipulate archie into areas where there's two pillars between you and him, meaning whichever cycle they're on, you're safe.

>>6976109

Sort of, but if I could figure out a better way to swap between ammo/firemodes like with using Altfire that'd fit better i think

>>6975297
Overclock the chainsaw, massively increasing firerate, homing ranging and forward momentum when attacking, but expends gas and has a cooldown. Probably could also make everything choke on the fumes as well.

>>6976109
That's a pretty good way of putting it, and I agree with your reasoning.

>>6976086
>You're gonna have to explain what the problem is.
What I meant was both of those maps have the aesthetic issue with the brick walls in the specified locations. Anyway, I get not wanting to alter someone else's design; the feedback was directed just as much towards the original authors in case they're around and still willing to make minor edits. But perhaps we're past that point with so much time having passed as the other anons said.

>ATT: Either 1 or 0. Attenuated lights illuminate surfaces depending on surface angle — surfaces that are not facing the light will get progressively less illuminated.
I don't think it's THAT important. At least to me it seems definitely less important than having better compatibility.

>>6976236
I was about to suggest this (they did it in that Eizouken anime), but Doomguy is already fast as fuck, so it's rather redundant. Though I actually also did something similar couple of years ago back when I first learning Doom modding and made an alt-fire for every default weapon. I will probably upload it here, just for shits and giggles.

>>6975916
I *think* what happened was I broke the zokumbsp node builder by applying a 999 tag (removes the line from blockmap consideration) to a linedef that didn't like it. I'm not sure which or how exactly, I didn't narrow it down that far. It might've been one that had a door action or something and I didn't notice.

>>6974581
Yes, the dehacked version is mainly cosmetic changes. It's different enough to cause demo de-syncs with the demos that come with the megawad, but not different enough to break the balance in any maps. The new pistol feels great.

The one problem I DID find with the 2048 dehacked guns is, if you fire your final 'chaingun' burst with less than 4 bullets, your bullets go into the negative, which is not a big deal. BUT if you are also out of shotgun ammo and your only other weapon is a rocket launcher, Doomguy endlessly tries to switch back and forth from the shotgun which has 0 ammo to the chaingun which has negative ammo and you literally cannot use any other weapon until you pick up more bullets or shells. THIS bug is the main reason I would be opposed to not including the guns in the megawad. I still like the idea but in the spirit of transparency I am reporting the bug here. The endless-switching bug occurred in Woof. I have not tested for the endless-switching bug in other ports, but the negative ammo bug did occur in all ports I tested, PrBoom+, MBF 2.04, and Woof, so I'm assuming the endless-switching bug occurs in those as well

>>6974913
>Boom doesn't recognize flats as wall textures, and vice versa
I'm guessing this was fixed in modern versions of Boom (PrBoom/GLBoom)? I tested this map in PrBoom+, GLBoom+, and Woof, and it works flawlessly. The source port that I discovered the error with is MBF 2.04.

Map23 is the only map that currently doesn't run in MBF 2.04. Fix this and the entire megawad will run in DOSBox with MBF 2.04. I haven't tried to run the megawad with older versions of MBF, for the record, but I don't think it matters. A LOT of maps crash with Boom 2.02 but that port is so old that I don't think we need to worry about getting the maps to run in it.

>>6976251
>It's different enough to cause demo de-syncs with the demos that come with the megawad, but not different enough to break the balance in any maps
Oh, I guess we'd have to record some new demos if we're gonna do this, then.

>I'm guessing this was fixed in modern versions of Boom (PrBoom/GLBoom)? I tested this map in PrBoom+, GLBoom+, and Woof, and it works flawlessly. The source port that I discovered the error with is MBF 2.04.
It's because PrBoom+/GLBoom/GzDoom just plain doesn't put any texture on the surface if the texture isn't recognized, leaving either something see through, showing you the framebuffer, or in the case of Peanut Gallery, nothing happens, because the surface isn't actually rendered.

I'm kind of surprised that MBF would plain conk out from an unrecognized texture.

Alright so I tinkered a bit with the rapid fire mode.
First is the version I showed in the last clip.
Then comes the version I added another frame with more muzzle rise. Of course that also prolongs the animation and decreases the fire rate. As if a theoretical ROF of 360rpm wasn't enough.

That's something I asked myself too, and that's the reason why I changed this to a burst fire mode instead of full auto like it was before.
I pursue a similar approach to HDest, in that you are "weaker" than regular Doomguy. A single shotgun to the face can already have you almost dead. Getting swarmed by dudes is basically fatal.
However, while enemies hit hard, they also can die do a few well-placed shots (you're a judge after all). That said:

Semi
>no spread, at all
>can kill a regular mook in about two shots
>slower rate of fire

Burst
>three shots per button press
>guaranteed dead mook if you manage to keep the crosshair on them
>has spread
>spread increases with sustained fire, see >>6972914


Furthermore, you (usually) only have what you get, i.e. 45 shots of standard ammunition, so you can't just spray n pray because eventually you WILL run out of ammo (a reason why the gun alone won't work in the regular game), so it's wise to not full auto everyone. Of course in the first level that only has up to nine enemies it doesn't matter, but later you will have to work more with crowd control and smart firemode choice.

>>6976465
I actually enjoy the map, and that is the only time the mistake was by the game and not me, so I find it funny more than anything.

I finally got it:
> https://youtu.be/FILneY0XnnA
Months ago, during initial map testing, I said I wanted to beat this map in under 6 minutes but I spent enough time on this map and needed to test other maps. Well, LunchLunch, I FINALLY did it. The biggest time-saver I think is using the rocket launcher vs the cyberdemon instead of only using the SSG like I did previously. The reason I relied on the SSG previously is because firing your own rockets makes it harder to dodge his rockets, at least for me, and plus the SSG is way more likely to stun the cyberdemon. I forgot BOTH keys this run and missed a lot of rockets vs the cyberdemon so I know I can lower the time further, but I'll probably wait until the idgames release for that

>>6976571
>I think they're called Snozhers or something
If you're thinking of the gun I think you are (pic related) it's called a Luger. I think the moonman mod has one, but that's definitely edgy so maybe not what you're after.

>>6976628
>>6976543
Looking good, anon!

>>6976642
The first or second one?

When recording a 100% run of a custom Quake map on Quakespasm, do I use the in-game demo maker or is something like OBS fine?

>>6976631
Congrats, man! Glad you managed to nail it and hope you can take the time down even lower.

>>6976657
Recording a demo will save a lot of hard drive space compared to recording actual video for who knows how long it will take. Record a demo then play the demo and record video of that. I know decino plays with his video recorder on but he also records with commentary. Also a demo file has the added advantage of being shareable between players so you could maybe include it with your map or something

>>6976675
I see, thank you.

>>6976652
The one where the gun kicks up more IMO

>>6976641
>>6976571
Luger P08 and Mauser C96 are peak visual pistoleering
Modern pistols look like bland and boring bricks with very similar visual profile.
Walther P99 is ok I guess.

I don't care whether you think remasters are a scam or not, I don't have a side in that argument. I just wanted answers to the questions.

>>6976742
Go to bed, Trent.

>>6976675
>>6976683
This was a really clever idea by Carmack, because it made it possible to share completely crisp gameplay footage that's so tiny in filesize that it was trivially easy to upload and download on 1993 era internet (compare to a 40mb video file which took ages to transfer at the time, and which still looks like garbage today), further, the fact that it records all your inputs means it's very hard to falsify speedruns, which makes them a very valuable asset to that section of the community.

>>6976717
Vinyl rips won't really convey the difference in audio when played digitally.

>>6976753
>I don't care whether you think remasters are a scam or not, I don't have a side in that argument.
>Go to bed, Trent.
Ok don't answer them then. What the fuck.

>>6976754
I'm a bit wary of demos since many demos I've seen in mods or whatever seemingly have missing effects, but I guess it's working as intended given the small filesize. I'll probably do as anon suggested and make a demo, then record it externally for yt.

>>6976691
I think the AMC Auto Mag is pretty cool, though not all that modern.

>>6972348
You need to place the wads or dehs in 3ds/prboom3ds. Then you need to specify them as "files preloaded at startup" in the prboom menu. Tested ancient aliens map 18 and it runs terribly.

>>6976759
It's also probably because this is an MP3 320 rip and my id1 music folder is a .wav rip.
>>6976762
Enough with the swearing, Trent. You got kids.

I miss the DS port of Doom. Where it had the statusbar on the bottom screen.

>>6976773
You can still do that with this port, I just don't like having to look down so far to see my health. This and the quake port are both surprisingly serviceable

>Sigil map 6
Jesus why? Is it supposed to be that dark in the beginning or am I doing something wrong?

>>6976790
That Cacodemon room goes pitch black yeah.

I think he made some tweaks to the lighting on that level. Make sure you have the latest version.

>>6976631
Hell yeah dude! Great sounfont as well. How'd you record in DOSbox though with the QFLAT error? Or is this not DOSbox?

HURH

>>6977010
That is the Woof source port with high-resolution turned off and integer scaling turned on (hidden option in the .cfg file). The MIDI player is Virtual MIDI Synth and the soundfont is Mysung Kite. This is the ONE map in the megawad that will not run in DOSBox so I had to use Woof

>>6975920
If thats 128 brightness you must just have high gamma on, it looks washed-out.

>>6977024
explain the Q3A intro video in one sentence

>>6976334
Sky brushes seal the world. So any outdoor area will have sky brushes on the top and on top of the walls around it.
>>6976349
Are you advising to create a giant outside cube to guarantee the map is sealed? That may be an okay method for small maps, but for larger/detailed maps youll want to seal areas individually so that the renderer works most efficiently.

>>6977058
A friendly reminder that the game had single player in mind but it was scrapped
Thankfully Hunter's moon exists

>>6977061
How would I create a sky brush?

>>6977024
think of the intro like being invited to smash but instead of getting invited you're kidnapped by aliens or something.

>>6977068
Create a brush and put a sky texture on it.
You can even get away with not doing a box, but just putting a brush over the "open" area, kinda like you would do sky in Doom.

>>6977069
wait it was meant for this one>>6977058

>>6977058
the '90s

>>6977061
Yeah, I meant each individual area should be sealed off. Not one giant cube.

>>6977065
What is Hunters Moon? Was it ever going to have a single player campaign? That was my biggest disappointment with it back in the day, always thought it should be a spin off and not a mainline entry. Too bad they refuse to revisit the original Lovecraftian themes

>>6977153
Not sure if you know this, but wads don't autoupdate, so make sure to go down the list redownloading when there's a major update to the port. Certain older wads have bugs if you haven't updated them in a while.

>>6977159
That, but with a Switch controller.

>>6977174
Will it remove the green "Downloaded" tag when it's updated if you already have it? I noticed I had to redownload BTX Episode 1 despite already having it, maybe that is why

>>6977081
Thats true (thats how vanilla Quake maps did it), but with the speed of computers and quality of modern tools theres no reason not to take a little more time to create variable-height walls.

>>6977180
Hmm... Not sure. Luckily, if you go to the Available tab, it's a pretty quick to redownload without having to uninstall first.

>>6977189
Cool I'll just do that.

>>6977142
It has a big room with several smaller rooms with lots of windows. I can remember so well because it's not the level, but just the PART of a level I spent the most time on for getting A+.

As for Doom related stuff: Does anybody have an idea how to make a certain type of projectile pass double sided linedefs and monsters? Just setting the passthrough on the linedefs only works for all projectiles afaik.

>>6977185
I know, I just explained it. Hell, one of my HUH maps was set completely in a deep space box.

>>6977153
>This is the first they've put up with new monsters/weapons sprites
Sets a good precedent. Now that we know for sure they will add ones with all new assets instead of just vanilla or just new level textures like BTX, there are all kinds of amazing wads we might get now

>>6977202
By "just" I meant "only", I didn't mean to condescending or anything.

>>6977153
i see them making the same for Q1 and Q2 very soon
I wouldn't be surprised if the ports uses Spiked for Q1 and 3.24's code and Server Browser connected to Qservers database.

>>6977173
Hunters moon is typically what if Quake 3 had a Single Player Campaign

Also Making lovecraft games is a pain in the ass because of the many interpretations of it, the fanbase and so on.
Its a miracle they revisited that in QC and ended up well.

>>6977203

>>6977195
It's more inspired by Refueling Base (Or vague recollections of it) and based around progression similar to MAP06 from 2048 of /vr/ but a bit more ambitious.

Anons what did you think of Sigil? I found it quite good but the overuse of damaging floors and tight bridge fights was a bit annoying.
Should I check out Romero's other two levels he made?

>>6977452
I think it's pretty good, I always wanted Thy Flesh Consumed to stay a ballbuster for its entire length, but it lets up with E4M3.
With Sigil, it's pretty much a TFC as if made entirely by Romero, making it bust my balls as hard as he can.

>>6977452
I liked it, but I also acknowledged it for what it was. A Doom 1 episode that's meant to progress in difficulty from episode 4. Not a Doom 2 wad without a super shot gun or extra enemies. As for his other maps, I think they're pretty good, but I tried doing a run with them mixed into episode 1 and their design and difficulty is like whiplash compared to the rest of the original maps.

>>6977452
>Anons what did you think of Sigil?
I thought it was extremely good but I've only played it using the D4V mod. I know you should NOT play a custom map with a mod first but I was young and stupid then; it just turns out that Sigil is extremely good with D4V so it worked out well and I recommend you try it. I was going to go back and UV-Max all of Sigil eventually
>Should I check out Romero's other two levels he made?
Yes, although they are vastly more difficult than anything in E1. The only thing I didn't like is that progression can be unclear in the maps and I got lost in them

>>6977207
Lovecraft games can work, it's just working the themes into a shooter is hard. Lovecraft protagonists tend to be college professor types who do their fighting via arcane research, not boomsticks. That combined with the general idea that humans are actually absolutely insignificant makes it hard to justify man with gun making any sort of meaningful contribution to such a story. A good classic FPS can't be explicitly Lovecraftian unless it's willing to kill the protagonist off or drive them insane or reveal their fight was all a waste of time and energy. That said, I think quake does a good job by not really explicitly mentioning Lovecraft and sticking to the more general sense of eldritch horrors from a different part of space. Why do shamblers take half damage from explosives and shoot lightning? Because they're from somewhere that's *not like here*. They don't need to be explicit servants of the old ones, just very clearly eldritch (and not just aliens, which are just different forms of life as we understand it. Eldritch creatures should be life as we don't understand it.) Of course, I might just be making your point about the Lovecraft fanbase for you.

>>6977452

Hurt me plenty feels like Episode 4 on UV
Ultra Violence is Ass Clenching Hard as Scythe2

>>6977519
i see anon, also what you said is also why Alone in the dark and Call of Cthulhu The bethesda one worked well.
Even Undying is kinda lovecraftian because of the plot, the Setting(the "truce years") and the arsenal which is both magic and gunpowder, and that game was great.

Quake Remake or Sequel using that would be great.

>>6977519
>Why do shamblers take half damage from explosives and shoot lightning? Because they're from somewhere that's *not like here*.
I figured they resisted bombs because they're built as fuck, packed densely with muscles and with bones thick like a rhino's.

>>6977550
It's a grounded kind of hell.

>>6977590
On that logic shamblers should resist the shotgun and nailgun, not the rocket. Concussive force travels can propagate through thick hide and muscle while a small projectile will run out of energy and stop at a superficial depth. It's why rifle cartridges for things like rhinos and elephants are relatively slow, but also fucking massive. They need to maintain their velocity even while shoving aside all the flesh in the way. Compare that to something like a a HESH round, where the whole function of the explosive is to propagate shockwaves through armor plate and kill the crew with internal spalling. You'd be more likely to tear an artery or nerve via concussive shock than poking a hole in it (assuming shamblers have arteries and nerves). Hence why I take shambler explosive resistance to be eldritch bullshit rather than beefiness.

>>6977631
Those are actually pretty good points.

>>6976765
yeah but for some reason IWADS would only show on the list when placed in the root folder
not pwads, either in the prboom3ds folder or on the root of the sd card
also I could not save the game or the settings, so the preload method didnt work either

maybe I installed it wrong? I installed it using the CIA with the FBI launcher, maybe I should have used to homebrew launcher?

>>6977638
Honestly this makes me want some sort of monster hunter/quake hybrid where you go on safari for a shambler and have to choose your loadout to most effectively hunt it. At the same time, you'd also have to fight through the shambler's home dimension, which would be full of other monsters, so you need to balance the requirements of getting to the shambler with actually killing it.

>>6977639
oh nevermind, I suck cocks and fixed the problem

It even loads eviternity! Nice! such a shame the colors are all washed out and that there is no music

>>6975593
I'm working on a 500ML map, trying to make this area look surreal / dreamlike. It's not very detailed at the moment since I'm doing the scripting first.

Why did DoomWorld snub John Romero and not give Sigil a 2019 Cacoward? Sigil is more relevant than any of the other wads except Eviternity. Also, half of the winners are ZDoom maps.

Why hasn't anyone made a megawad consisting of nothing but Dead Simple clones?
