Bugs that need fixing:
>Yellow Skull Key fight in Caligary's Delight does not trigger anymore and softlocks you (haven't looked at why)
>Hell Knight that cockblocks the lift in Concussion sometimes does not teleport in, meaning you can't max kills

Do give input on level order, if you think it should be shifted or not. I sorta went by a mix of aesthetic themes and difficulty, putting the hard maps by the end. If you think your level should have another sky, chime in with that.

Damn. I mean, it is smaller levels, but that's still a surprisingly nice number of maps.

>>12168445

You could probably also fit the full title for King Boner's Manor with the smaller font.

>>12168478

>>12168497
It already is in the smaller font, but the lead might want to play with the offset of it. The entering screen for it places the text very low.

Best and worst Doom enemy?
>Best
Imp. I love these underrated guys so much. They're not difficult but a swarm of them with a big gin is always a lot of fun to deal with
>Worst
Pain Elemental. The "that guy" of Doom. My day is slightly ruined every time I see one of these unfun Lost Soul generators. They aren't even satisfying to kill, and yeah you can get in their face to shut down the Lost Soul stream but it's not always possible.

>>12168551

No Doom challenge for this thread, it seems. For those unaware, you can record Heretic demos using chocolate-heretic, crispy-heretic, or dsda-doom. Surprisingly, I planned on making a Heretic challenge before anyone mentioned the Quake challenge, just to mix things up. Trying to screen-record a new program finally motivated me to try a new method for making images. Exporting a webm instead of a gif should result in higher quality/framerate with comparable filesize

>>12168397
vanilla Doom > slaughter slop

>>12168627
Depends on enemies they respawn. If you have custom archvile that just spawns imps/pinkies then it's not so much of an issue when compared to normal archvile reviving doors with hit points combined with the LoS attack

On the topic of enemies that can resurrect, I had a fun idea for a small monster that has no collision that you could spawn swarms of, and resurrects 1 monster before disappearing. Give them extremely low health, too.

>>12168832
I've never tried, but wouldn't the friendly tag work?

>>12168837
Allegedly the friend logic is borked in MBF21. It's one of the fixes MBF2Y is poised to fix, if it ever happens.

>>12168878
Setting the speed to a negative value should work.

>>12168894
That will make enemies move away from the player, and it's a classic DeHacked trick, the cat in Aliens TC is actually the Yellow Key with negative speed set to it so that it runs away from the player, and you have to catch it.

>>12168906
You'd just need to flip the forward and back sprites.

More than ANYTHING, a QUAKE challenge that isn't actually QUAKE?? That's what set me the fuck off, man. How about E1M5, demo and time? Or make it a real challenge, one of the E4 maps because those are mazes from hell.

Funny, these are both of mine, with The Wind Tunnels and The Chambers of Torment running close behind.

There's wrong with episodes 1 and 2, but I wanted to exclude them because I feel like it's with episodes 3 and 4 where the team really understood what they could do. That makes sense of course, more time to have become familiar with the tools, with the monsters, with the rhythms of combat. But The Pain Maze and Azure Agony in particular are exemplary of a "playfulness" that Doom 2 evokes throughout its entire run. They are absolute torture to play in co-op, but otherwise very nice choices lads. Thanks for engaging me in good faith.

You're the one on a high horse, as if you're a brave crusader battling against the scary trannies. When in actuality we had one person post a librequake thing and now we have this little episode of yours.

Did you get bored of sperging for Mega Man 8 Bit Deathmatch?

Playing doom 2 in rural only. The maps look amazing

>>12169181
Scary? No. Insulting? Absolutely. The QUAKE challenge isn't actually QUAKE. Notice you don't have anyfuckingthing to say about that, because you understand how monumentally retarded it is to have the QUAKE challenge feature Librequake.

I once again invite you to engage my reply here >>12169151 with your own original thoughts on level design, Doom 2 as it compares to Quake, or anything else productive on your mind instead of presiding with your holier than thou horseshit. We both know you don't want to do that. You just want to enable this bullshit, this tumor that's now made itself known. You don't give a fuck about Quake. Just tell me that and I'll stop engaging you, because then I know I'll never get through to you.

>>12169181
Also, all cards, don't know what the Mega Man 8 Bit Deathmatch thing is about. Isn't it just a deathmatch mod?

I do agree with the spaz. LibreQuake isn't Quake. It's pretty much the equivalent of a slav-jank, copy-cat. It's kind of rude to do that to the Quake fans.

If Quake ""fans"" view it as an insult, then they deserve that insult for not repping. Choosing to shit up the thread instead of just doing a ""real"" Quake challenge? When the Heretic boys were able to do exactly that when they didn't wanna do a LibreQuake challenge? Sure, Quake ""fans"" indeed.

>>12169257
>Choosing to shit up the thread
He CHOSE to use LIBREQUAKE instead of QUAKE as the challenge. I would hope the capitalized words would allow you to read clearly. I guess I wrongly assumed you were intelligent enough to have a conversation about this, let alone my wrongful assumption that you were capable of reading. Don't have children. While you're not having children, tell me you don't actually care about Quake so I'll stop engaging you. Because I know you don't actually care about Quake.

Finished episode 1 of Soul of Evil. Its fourth map, The Autumn Citadel, is pure Quake goodness. The highlight for sure.

What isn't a highlight is its final confrontation. The mapset released 18 years later, Ter Shibboleth under Drake mod by ORL, saw inclusion of the same boss enemy as the boss of Soul of Evil episode 1, the Bane. In that Ter Shibboleth fight, you have allies, you have a ton of armor, ammo, powerups, and health. Bane also has more gimmicks in that later fight, owing to Drake becoming more advanced with time and effort, so all the extra support is needed. But this earlier, 2002 rendition of Bane under Tronyn, it needed more testing. I'm very certain the idea is, as you face him atop his tower, you are supposed to be knocked off by a gust of wind (a trigger_push), and Bane is supposed to either get caught in the wind as well, or failing that, do a jump attack after you. Both events often fail, leading you to just go back up the elevator to keep attacking him. But on Nightmare and Hard, this is a fruitless endeavor. There isn't enough range to use your grenade launcher up there, which you need to use to kill him because there isn't enough ammo in the map for your shotgun or super nailgun. I only figured out he's supposed to fall because I kept loading and trying different tactics, whereas the average player would rightfully dismiss the fight as poorly constructed. Which, unfortunately, it is if the Bane doesn't fall down to the larger area below.

I know the longstanding joke or rather rule is that early FPS can't do boss fights correctly, but in this case it's just a matter of not having been tested or designed better. What about a trigger_monsterjump set to a delay, and fired by a trigger_once after entering the Bane's tower arena? After 20 seconds, the monsterjump triggers, and Bane "jumps" down into the larger arena below. But that doesn't happen. It's all luck to get him down there.

I've gone on at length because I've looked around, and nobody has talked about what's wrong with this fight, probably because most people play it on Normal. Maybe they're sane and I'm not. It's a rather disappointing capstone to a more than solid episode of medieval Quake goodness. It's no doubt something Tronyn would have revisited had he not passed before Mjolnir was completed :(

Onto episode 2 (maybe later).

I haven't seen much discussion for it here, so maybe you're talking about what's been posted on other places like Quaddicted?
It wasn't the best final fight but I was lenient towards it considering the mod's age. It was otherwise a fun mod throughout, and at least had a final fight that was still more engaging than vanilla's Shub or Cthon.

People do a lot of magicry with ZScript. Is there a mod which will attempt to equalize the volume for different music tracks? Or is that not really possible to do?

>>12169485
Always thought the original movie would be perfect for a Quake clone while the series would be great for a Ghost Recon 1 style big map tactical-ish shooter kind of thing.

>>12169489
>>12169491
I think most classic FPS boss fights struggled due to lack of pathfinding. If the boss can't get around well enough, then you either have to make the arena really simple so you can't cheese him, or give him some dumb gimmick that often doesn't end up very fun.
I noticed when I played the Quake 2 re-release that it was much harder to cheese tougher enemies with map geometry. I only realized much later that they use the new deathmatch bot nodes for pathfinding.

Indeed.
>It wasn't the best final fight but I was lenient towards it considering the mod's age
I want to be more lenient, but I imagine trigger_monsterjump was a known quantity to Tronyn. It's a nice setpiece, but the fight could have been nicer.
>fun mod throughout
Oh indeed. Soul of Evil is as I said, more than solid medieval Quake goodness. Utterly charming stuff. I haven't finished episode 2 yet so I'll look out for that final fight being more engaging than Shubby or Cthon.
>>12169503
For the Bane, it's definitely just a matter of getting him down to the larger space. You can outrun him and grenade launcher him to death down there, which is the intended way of killing him for sure. Although those deathmatch bot nodes sound like they would have been useful in some capacity. Maybe getting him to reliably get trigger_pushed off his tower.

>>12169501
Can't you just do that in Audacity?

The fact that Quake will buffer held jumps means that sourceports should just have a "Hold Space to Autohop" option. At this point there's little meaningful reason not to offer it.

>>12169506
Audacity doesn't read MIDI files to my knowledge.

>>12169507
You could do that pretty trivially with an external tool if you wanted, I use X-Mouse Button Control for similar stuff. However, using auto-repeating functions that weren't present in the original game have historically been considered cheating (like for games with different bunnyhopping physics than quake, or trubo fire for certain nes games), so I think it's unlikely source port devs would implement it directly.

>>12169485

I'm pistol starting Overboard. Yes, most in this thread would say that's nothing, but I only play Doom once in a while so it's a challenge to me.
I also downloaded Ashes 2063 and plan on starting it today, but I'm unsure on the difficulty I should go for. Standard sounds like it's going to be too easy, but the recommended Survival sounds like it might be too much,

so this might seem like i'm trying to stir shit, but i'm not:
I recall seeing mentions of doomworld basically chasing off mappers who actually tried to do new stuff, while favoring only those who did a style i saw described as "aping doom 2 the way id did it and scythe"

It's still slavjank, and of a higher order than Liquidator. Possibly still below You Are Empty.

Soul of Evil was my first Quake mapset. Its enemies are on the spongy side and it suffers a bit from "where the fuck do I go now" syndrome, but I still look back at it fondly. True to its name, it has soul.

i'm pretty fond of Chasm - wouldn't go as far as to say it's an incredible game but I really like the settings and the weapon and monster variety. weirdly charming that they tried to make a quake-like game on an engine that has more in common with Blake Stone, too

>>12170045
I think their style is pretty far-reaching, but splitting wads into aesthetically unique episodes and arranging them from easiest to hardest is just a slight extension from what Doom 1 offered.

I think the point is Doomworld (and other people, but DW is where the shit happens) focuses far too much on everything made with Doom needing to play like Doom. The wad that caused this was a total conversion and you had to find and destroy all statues...so you know.

Like killing all the Keens in map 32 to exit.

It's not like Keen maps are even an unknown thing to Doomworld, they pop up fairly often in wads like Paint-It Doom, it was just presented in a way that they couldn't immediately recognize as Doomlike so they went on the attack.

Isn't it doing it in the same way as FreeDoom does, so it's only at best situationally? Even if it does do that, it's not like it'll ever actually replace the original Quake, that's a preposterous notion, it's the same for if FreeDoom actually got its shit together and turned good, it's NEVER going to functionally replace the classic.

Further, FreeDoom gets points knocked off, because its Doom 1 E4 is good, BUT, that's because they're just borrowing Double Impact, so yeah, of course FreeDoom gets good sometimes when you just slap in some of the best pre-existing maps in there, rather than making new maps which stand to that quality.
Does LibreQuake do this, or are all the maps original?

My biggest inspiration is the music I listen too, as I find it videogamey enough that can put it into maps I work on and design those maps around the music. That train map I worked on, I built it around the music track that plays in it to catch similar feel:
https://youtu.be/6wmZ9I0d-1I
Then when I got general idea of the map I look into other games and maps with similar theme. Again my train takes lots of inspiration from similar maps in Duke, Blood and Ion Fury

Oh, I realized what anon was getting at earlier, trying out the Sub Mortem beta in GzDoom, some of the music tracks are in differing volumes, October's music track is too loud, while Whine Cellar's music track is too quiet.

I think there's maybe a command to address this with GzDoom's SNDINFO? It sounds fine in Nugget because it appears to equalize music volume, something that I wish that maybe GzDoom tried to do. Maybe I'll just add a lump for this so that it's fixed for GzDoom/UzDoom users when they play.

>>12170548
>My biggest inspiration is the music I listen too
This can drive a lot IMO. Sometimes I maybe listen to a fun streamer or something in the background while mapping, but there's times where I just want to put on an album and listen to that, and sometimes that REALLY drives me to map harder and faster.

Yep, there we go, with...
>$musicvolume FILENAME X.X
... in a SNDINFO lump, you can either reduce the volume of the given music track, or boost it. Apparently it lets you do it by decibels if you want, but using 1.0 as a baseline you can just go 0.6 or 1.3 or something and that's fine.

I can for instance make the droning atmospheric track in Bereaved Battlement be earrape loud in GzDoom if I want to, but just a small boost should be fine. I'll look at trying to fix the level bugs in a bit and then we should have a finished Release Candidate.

I don't recall exactly, but I was blazing through the levels with IDDQD just to test and make sure that exits and intermissions were happening and working as expected, and probably I was being ballsy and careless, and just waltzed around like the floor or king boner rockets didn't hurt. I think I MAY have gotten it to happen a second time after running the level again, but I'm not sure.

For a lack of a better solution, maybe a failsafe triggered around the exit could make him get squashed by crushers? A band-aid solution, admittedly.

>block in front of him keeps him in there
>action in level lowers block
>lowered block also slides him forward
>first linedef tries teleporting him into his spot in the level
>three extra linedefs silently puts him back at the beginning again

This way, if his destination is blocked, he's sent back and can try again, or if the teleport action just fails for some reason (linedef skip), then there's three more linedefs which will ensure that he can keep trying. The odds of four linedef skips in a row seem astronomically low, so it should never fail in unmodded circumstances.
The main drawback of this setup is that it's mildly tedious to build, but you can also copy and paste it and then alter numbers iteratively after you've built it.

That's all I could find for now. I haven't found many, if any, for other games like Quake, Duke, etc., but if you anons know of them, give me (You)s in exchange for links.

I could maybe see randomly generated levels being mildly enjoyable for multiplayer with randomizing mods, but at the same time, you can get basically the same result by doing an iDGames Roulette and just picking something you don't recognize and just going YOLO, because then it has the chance to maybe be actually pretty good, and it might have custom assets and novel design which you're not expecting.

I'm not joking or exaggerating, by the way. I've found a few nice works by pure chance doing iDGames Roulette.

This feels like a meme. I might restart on normal because this is kind of miserable, even if it's cool quickdrawing a bunch of guys and one shotting them, but you always have fuck all ammo.

>>12170991
I had very few ammo troubles on survival personally, but I almost always crowbarred bugdogs and cannibals.

>>12170917
>Do they not even revise them?
They do, quite often, but some get stuck in place.

It's worth having back versions of FreeDoom just to see the differences, especially for the ones that they tried to pull from the net.

>>12170998
True, I really should melee more, I think that's why I'm always low on ammo.
In a way Survival feels a little like Blood, in the sense that you're a glass cannon. Enemies die super fast but so do you.

I don't play those to the exclusion of any other content, so maybe if that's what you're doing, that's why you're so fucking salty about them and need to complain about it so often.

>>12171000
Bit of the same problem as when they replace a really good graphical asset for the sixth time, but then still hold on to one of the shitty and old ones, huh?
Isn't there some Demon Eclipse stuff in there too? That's high quality spritework, but it's also really distinct in style and very recognizable, it feels like slipping in a scene from Pulp Fiction as a placeholder for your WIP indie movie, and maybe Tarantino said that you could do that, but to me as a viewer that's still extremely jarring.

What versions have they tried to hide?

>>12171046
>What versions have they tried to hide?
I think it's like 0.6 or so and earlier, the ones that somebody had include copyrighted music in.

>>12171046
NTA, but they pulled some of the older versions from the main Github repository due to "copyright violations discovered in the source tree."
Yep, they accidentally included copyrighted material in their freesoft project at one point in time.
That being said, the affected versions are still available in Freedoom's "Historic" repo.

I remember some sloppy unity made indie 2d platformer being based on very classic mariolike gameplay and levels being comprised of “nuggets” - little fragments that the author made himself which then were composed into a longer level by the generator
I wonder if we could make a project like that - everyone submits little map fragments with enemies and then some generator like oblige restricted to only use those fragments would compose a short wad which would be personalized for every player - all the novelty of random generation without the soulless slop aspect of it
There could be different categories of fragments to submit - corridor, item room, weapon room, secret, boss room and so on

The Marathon community did something like that: Mararthon Yuge.
In short, a bunch of people created small map snippets that were then thrown into a random level generator.
It was a massive project, with over 10,000 total maps spread across multiple map files.
And no, Mararthon isn't a typo.

>>12171126

This but unironically. Ribbiks makes high quality maps that appeal a lot to the ideals of higher levels of Doom play in a satisfying and challenging manner, but in the process, they often lose that unique sense of identity and character.

I actually really like this mod, but it's best when you're fighting other raiders. The mutants and dog things are less fun.
It's the most atmospheric mod I've played in a long time though. I started it expecting to play a level or two and I'm supposedly half way through already.

Apparently Valve are finally doing that Steambox thing after all, it's kinda like a console in that part of the idea is hooking it up to a TV, but it's a Linux derived computer also or something, so it's far less cucked than a regular modern console, and probably very moddable.

Now, rather than focus on all kinds of not-retro games, I wonder, how well would that thing be suited for putting Doom, Duke, Blood, Quake, etc on my big TV? Like with sourceports and piracy.

>>12171229
Since I'm still on the fence about this one aspect I'll ask:
Is survival a good starting difficulty? I'm worried I'm making the experience needlessly tough in an attempt to be immersive for my first playthrough.

>>12171313
Just as good as anything else I'd imagine. Similar to the Steam Deck.

>>12171315
Survival is fine, just save your ammo for enemies that either drop ammo and/or you can't easily crowbar.
>>12170998
>>12171115

>>12171313
Finally... the year of the Linux desktop...

>>12171323
Alright, thanks. I was only asking because that big enemy rush bit at the end of the last level felt kind of impossible without clearing me out, but I guess on Survival you're meant to treat it like that Half Life 2 Episode 1 bit with the elevator and all the zombies rushing you, where you're buying time until you can escape and leave the cluster fuck.

>>12171313
>how well would that thing be suited for putting Doom, Duke, Blood, Quake, etc on my big TV
Literally anything could do that. If you were so inclined, you can put games on your big TV with a $30 microcontroller right the fuck now instead of paying hundos for a bigger box.

>>12171313
If it's like the Deck, it'll be slightly more annoying than a regular Linux desktop but completely viable.

>>12171324
It feels like the Steamdeck and Steambox will probably be a bit of an entryway towards Linux stuff for a lot of people, by the virtue of being something stable and well supported.

>>12171331
There might also be a handful of not-retro games which I may be interested in. I don't know, maybe it'll be shit or not, but it's the first time since the PS3 that I felt a console wasn't completely AIDS.

>>12171327
That was one of the few times I used ammo on melee enemies.
It's definitely meant to squeeze you, but if you've played conservatively to that point, it won't squeeze you completely dry.

>>12171338
>by the virtue of being something stable and well supported.
This is Valve running the same shit that was wiping people's hard drives and got abandoned for the best part of a decade.

>>12171338
>There might also be a handful of not-retro games which I may be interested in
It depends how far up the chain you want to go, but you can also use a myriad of $150-$200 mini-PCs to play quite a few games from across many years, although this is starting to leave the purview of /vr/

yeah don't think of Ashes as another doom mod, it evolved into its own thing. No point going for 100% kills or items as sometimes later in the game it will be impossible.
Survivor difficulty is fine as long as you are not brainless retard and know when to pick fights and when to save up on guns and ammo. Its the 'intended' difficulty as devs said many times, arcade is well arcade like other classic fps where you just shoot shit up, same with apocalypse but that one is just hard
