>>> CLASSIC DOOM CHALLENGE <<<

This time, instead of a max demo, just boot up Doom 2 while recording (-cl2) and see how far you can get in a single segment. You don't need to get all kills or secrets, though they may be helpful. Winner is whoever makes it furthest, or whoever beats the game fastest, I suppose.
Reply to this post with a demo & your time.

Current records and more examples can be found here:
https://dsdarchive.com/wads/doom2?level=D2All

Here's an example demo by me where I foolishly die early on to a big spider. This is my first run, I've never really routed Doom2 before, so it should be easy to beat.
https://files.catbox.moe/e4uoz8.lmp

Winner of the previous challenge last thread (didn't beat my time, but wins by default): >>12305808

I figure this is perhaps the only wad people are familiar enough with they can get reasonably far in a single segment without practice. If people like this idea maybe we can try with the other iwads.
>>
>>12311260
No no no, I've got a better challenge. You play the game of your choice on the hardest difficulty, and every time you take damage, you punch yourself in the balls. If you're not sterile by the end of the game, you win.

If there are that many monsters you are probably meant to make them kill each other. Monster infighting is less efficient than the player's attacks, but it scales extremely well, to the point of being "embarrassingly parallel".

Oh rest assured, anon. I've fought in enough arenas by now that I understand the value of making monsters infight. It's a feature I appreciate in user maps, utilized a lot more than it was in the base games. But if they use a ton of the same monster (assuming it's not zombies) the infighting breaks down a lot.

Right now I'm burning out on another wad because every goddamn room is a mega fucking ambush with unreasonable shit like 50 archies surrounded by a ring of chaingunners.

If you don't upgrade it makes a bunch of hypersensitive snowflake trannies feel insecure and invalidated, gives them panic attacks, and makes them cry.

I guess that makes sense, but I don't exactly go rushing out to grab whatever GzD mod I can find to run on a whim, certainly not stuff which others haven't already been playing, so I don't see myself at any particular risk.

I don't think anyone's actually had any sort of misfortune happen to them during the period of time when these exploits are discovered, but it's one of those things where the team jumps on that shit immediately to fix it because it's a bad look.

I mean fuck if I released a mod that had a 0 tic loop in it that crashed the game or some shit like that I'd update it immediately and tell people to download it posthaste.
>>
>>12311670
>I don't think anyone's actually had any sort of misfortune happen to them
I was mid-asking about this. Hard to imagine anyone actually running out to use GZDoom as an attack vector.
That's good, at least.
>>
>>12311643
Since ZScript has been added there's been at least three of those.
>>12311683
I know at least one of them allowed just replacing any file on your hard drive with demo files, pretty comprehensive way to fuck people's shit up.
>>
>>12311660
It's suspicious. They use fearmongering tactics to scare you into upgrading in haste, thus sneaking unwanted features past you until it's too late. You can't possibly object to this update, it fixes a remote code exploitation vulnerability! Except that is only triggerable in 0.001% of circumstances, but then you run the game and find Doomguy wears a dress and has pronouns.
>>
>>12311719
Geez. Kinda makes me worry about when other ports will start wanting their own little versions of ZScript.

I found the Nightmare option (It's pretty obvious) I just thought it was going to be something boring as usual. Turns out Enemies have completely new behaviours on Nightmare.

Occam's Razor, my demented friend, suggests they're touting the security update part as trying to make UzD look more legitimate and developed than GzD (whether it substantially is or not). Making themselves look more competent than Graf is most likely their Number 1 priority right now.

I imagine that if they're gonna do any troonery shit, they're gonna be too lazy to make an entire Troonguy spriteset (player sprites, HUDface, weapons, and all, that shit is a lot of work), and rather just add it as one of the gender options and call it a day. Given the wide range of 'subjectivity' you can see with nupronoun bullshit, they might allow for the player to just add custom genders and pronouns, so someone can correctly identify as Imp/Impself.

If ZScript can identify a player's selected gender and then execute things based on that, this could potentially be used for all kinds of hilarious shenanigans, if you were so inclined.

We can but hope, but we must never underestimate the zeal of those pushing an ideology.

I wouldn’t mind if its spread was just slightly more narrow. You’ve REALLY got to be in someone’s grill to have all those pellets hit. I guess the tradeoff is having more consistently staggered enemies through the mod’s Copper origins, and it does work well when you’re getting rushed by a swarm of those melee zombiethings.

Shooting it really reminded me of a more spammy Flak Cannon, which isn't so bad but yeah, a tighter pattern with the pellets instead of a sprinkler system would have been nice at the sacrifice of some volume in favor of stopping power.

>>12312998
Is there a "Doom 3 for Doom 2"? That might be more of a fair comparison. D64 is basically classic Doom gameplay so it makes sense that D64D2 translates so well. You might even be able to argue it's an objective improvement since it puts the missing monsters back in.
Quakulf tried a test map for KexQ2 using extracted Q4 textures. It translated surprisingly well. I also prefer Q2's gameplay much more than Q4's so it might be a similar but much more objective improvement in the gameplay department.

It's weird because they redid all the CG cutscenes from scratch, so you'd think they would've redone the box art render too.
>>
>>12312890
if they re-rendered everything, then they did an impressively shit job.
>>
>>12313040
None of those CG cutscenes have people in them. Anyone with enough technical inclination can wrangle Blender to model basic architecture or blocky spaceships and figure out how to move them around with keyframes. Most of that is pretty intuitive, and there's a gorillion tutorials out there.
But most intuitiveness goes out the window when you have to model, rig, and animate characters like those stormtroopers on the cover. That will take the average person MUCH longer than even the biggest, most greebly space ship.
Nightdive is about as cheap as non-indie developers get (only beaten by Aspyr) so they probably found a really cheap 2D artist to definitely not AI upscale the still frames, and got whoever on their team who fucks around in Blender occasionally to do the 3D stuff - which you'll notice has much less polish in animation compared to the originals despite the higher resolution.

Smart blur/oilify, cleaned up, edge detect or cartoon filter and probably cleaned a little more. Kinda lazy, but not AI.

And it's not a 3D render, which is what the cover is. The 3D parts are all re-rendered. Unless you think they were using AI for the videos (they weren't) they have no reason not to just re-render the cover. Only thing that looks weird about the cover art to me is a sharpening filter.

The year is 2030. Ben crouches in his mouldy flat as the police roll up outside. The law is clear. His four encrypted drives stuffed with unlicensed Doom mods carry mandatory five year sentences. The officers storm up to his door and bang on it shouting a demand for his “licensed content manifest”. He knew he shouldn't have told his aunt Gertrude about his doom modding hobby that that one Happy Holiday before they turned off the internet, the old bat probably tipped them off.
As the police begin battering the door down he shoves the drives into the back of the his old freezer, tucking them behind the halal meats. They'll never look there.

I took a break from fucking around with the plasma+BFG combo thing (Current plan is shoot it for a bit, the gun shoots slower and has stronger projectiles that force flinch, then builds up to firing BFG tracer blasts until you let go of fire or run out of cells)

Implementing the backup attacks for the SMG here: You run out of normal ammo and you'll fire projectile flechettes that deal less damage. The reload won't drop magazines for this later on.

I'm fucking around with a little experiment to condense Doom's arsenal of 8 guns down into 4. So pistol + chaingun, shotgun + SSG, and plasma + BFG. Rocket launcher is by itself cus it's cool like that. No altfire for the guns, altfire is dedicated to a sword button because I don't like the vanilla fist.

Guns all operate with a single button, but they do different shit if you either press the button or hold it. Like for the rocket launcher here: A single press fires off a barrage of three rockets, and holding it does a more traditional steady rocket launcher attack. Because I don't want to make people manually click each time to shoot a rocket, that sucks.

The real, non-pretending-to-be-retarded reply, is simply that no-one bothers to reply to the newspost, and the only job of the threadmaker is to update the new newspost with the replies to the current one.
In the past some obsessively tryhard former threadmakers have chosen to take on actual newshounding as part of their job, but I don't think the current jobholders see it that way, nor do I think it's reasonable to expect it.

Lulls are bound to happen, but truly it's everyone's responsibility to contribute to it if they know of a very recent release or significant news regarding retro shooters, and it's not in the newspost or its replies.

Ideally, reply with a post bearing the [dd-mm] bracket, a link (for forum links, you can usually cut away the rubric and just leave the thread ID), and then a very short descriptor of it.
Even if you do it without the ready formatting, it's still a good contribution.

Like, if any of you guys ever just briefly scroll through releases on places like DW, DB, or hang in any major Discords, and you see any significant releases (megawads, gameplay mods, new works by recognizable names, source port updates, anounced collab projects, etc).

That doesn't just go for Doom either, we like Quake, Duke, Blood, Turok, Wolf3D, Half-Life, etc, etc, so doing the same from spaces for such retro games is equally useful.

If Doom scene is dying, no modding scene has ever been alive. Actually Doom scene has never as active as it has been this decade. In last week alone we have already received actual final-ish release of Extermination Day, and new russian high quality megawad No Time 2 Freeze. This year should see the releases of TNT Exolution, Delirium, Kuiper, Corruption 2, Avactor 2, JENES15, Happy Time Circus 3 and Dissension 2. It's just that most mapping/modding groups exist in Discord rather than forums or image boards.

But yea /vr/ suffered slightly after 4chan hacking, because lot of tourists came here due lack of moderation, and it drove some people out that actually contributed on our projects. When we eventually start new Doom project, more sane people will come here. Don't worry.

What, the brutal doom starter pack? Where was this reported on?

Just found out that psyren (Crimson Canyon, Rylayeh, Elegant Agony and Blood TC guy) released a 32 map megawad on 2022 called PSYKOPLEX22. Nice old schoolish maps. Somehow I completely missed this one.

considering that it was originally the hell on earth starter pack which felt pretty finished imo. what did mark really need to do? hell, most of his individual maps are included in the starter pack.

NTA, but video players have this really cool feature called "pausing" and another neat little thing called a "seeker bar". By utilizing them both, you can go to a specific frame (the very first one, for example) and not have it automatically play!

I love TNT, but I also understand this because there's a lot to NOT love about TNT.

It's a very early collab megawad for Doom 2, and not every contributor was so talented, so it ends up as this rough mixed bag. There's some good chocolates and gummy candies in there, but the candy corn obviously expired many years ago, and that apple has a razor in it.
There's maps that I love in TNT, and maps which I hate, and there's also a lot of subjectivity there, because some people love O'Briens giant maps, but most people don't.

TNT Revilution is a MUCH stronger, smoother, and more even product, but it also has a pretty different feel, it lacks a lot of the original's grit (in bad and good ways, mind).
Plutonia is popularly considered the better half of the original Final Doom for its gameplay and map design, but something I always wanted to do was to actually combine the best qualities of Plutonia and Evilution.

I like continuous play. It adds an element of strategy where you're trying to finish the map with as much ammo, health and armor as possible.
>>
>>12315019
I used to do that but found I was always overpowered and drowning in stuff I couldn't pick up after two or three maps.
>>
>>12315032
>overpowered
Just play harder wads bro.
>>
>>12315036
Do you have any recommendations? Harder wads especially seem designed for demo recorders for whom pistol start is required. If I bring a load of weapons and inventory onto a map whose first room gifts me a shotgun and a pile of shells, I immediately feel I am playing it wrong. Other than Doom and Doom2 what wads were made for continuous play?
>>
>>12315019
I like the Dakka format of it where you don't get to take all of the ammo to the next map.
>>
>>12315046
Yes, while most wads are balanced for pistol start, that doesn't mean the harder ones won't still be hard as fucking balls played continuously.
What is the hardest wad you have beaten?
>>
>>12315065
I don't know how to answer that, it depends what you mean by "beaten". Plus it's been decades since I played continous with savegames so I can't remember. We should probably end this conversation, I can already sense you are just going to get annoyed with me.
>>

>>
>>12315091
Autistic, but I'm sure you'll say that's the same thing. Nevertheless, different people mean different things by "beaten". I need to know your definition before I can answer your question, to avoid stupid, worthless, timewasting misunderstandings that always happen when I have to discuss matters with neurotypicals.
>>12315092
Oh, that's easy, Plutonia. Maybe MM2 except for one map, I've never quite managed to get 3x100% on map19 because the computer map is so awkwardly placed in a timed crusher trap, and it's so painful to play through I just don't find it fun to retry.
>>
>>12315127
>Plutonia
OK, yeah.
It's likely that you'd feel that something like Ancient Aliens or Valiant was challenging enough to be fun even with continuous play, let alone something like Sunlust, which you would likely find ball-bustingly difficult, even with continuous play.
And Sunlust isn't even that hard compared to a lot of the shit being released these days.
https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/107015-wad-progression-for-skill-improvement/ this is a good git gud progression.
>>
>>12315127
>>12315131
And if you decide to follow that progression and try Scythe first, like, I absolutely fucking guarantee you that you will find Fire and Ice ball-bustingly hard even if you start it with 200/200, all weapons and full ammo. You will still likely use every cell available on the map.
>>
>>12315131
Ok thanks for your advice.
I already know Sunlust, I've done all the maps pistol start but on lower skill levels (for three I needed ITYTD, embarrassingly)
So I'll try doing that continuous with saves.
>>12315136
Ah yes I'm familiar with Scythe. I've pistol started the first two episodes on UV and the third on HNTR. The last map is indeed a buster even on HNTR where you drown in invulnerabilities. It's still easy to die suddenly even when you think you're safe.

I think more map makers at least give some consideration to continuous play than you think.
You're only "playing it wrong" if the map maker specifically made an exit a death exit and you're somehow bypassing that to keep all your shit for the next map.
If the map maker did not choose to make the map have a death exit, then taking all of your shit into the next map is, by rule, not "playing it wrong," as it is a possibility which was fully intended by the mapper.
An example of a wad where continuous play was clearly accounted for: Eviternity 2.
The Perforator is incredibly powerful. As a result, it is usually only found in the final map of an episode. This is a clear sign that the designers of the wad, for the most part, do not want that weapon being used outside of the levels it is found in.
>>
>>12315131

Wait, I'm retarded. I was confusing Eviternity 2's Perforator with Hardfest 2's infinite rocket launcher, which is usually only found in the last map of an episode.
The Perforator is typically only found in secret maps, making it a significant reward for continuous players who choose to play the secret maps.
Also, D2ALL is a thing that I'm sure many mapmakers at least give some consideration to.
>>
>>12315118
Dakka. It's a gameplay mod and the default setting resets all of your ammo to a certain amount. It's pretty big brained.
>>
>>12315204
I never liked pistol starting but absolutely fell in love with Dakka starting, and wish it had a standalone mod that could be put on anything. Its the perfect middleground to stop hoarding without resetting progression entirely between maps.
>>
>>12315224
>and wish it had a standalone mod that could be put on anything.
Best you could do is a general one that you could change to fit to mods since not everything classifies ammo as ammo.
>>
>>12315224
I like hoarding during continuous, though.
It makes the whole episode (or wad if the wad doesn't have episodes) feel like one big survival test.
>>
>>12315229
Yeah thats the issue I ran into trying to make one. After seeing how mods like gunbonsai run into problems regarding ammo classification and how it gets incorporated into stuff like reload and inventory systems, I don't know if even zscript could make a really universal system. I'm certainly too fucking stupid to do it myself.
>>
>>12315239
I like hording too, until I realize I'm not using good shit as much as I should, which is why I stated messing with pistol starting in the first place. Going into levels with max plasma ammo is like going into final bosses in an RPG with max healing items, while games like Heretic would only let you carry over 1 of each item to encourage you to use them more. That type of middleground is great for breaking those habits.
>>
>>12315251
Yeah but on the plus side I've been getting better at berserk fisting revenants and hell nobles lately due to hoarding.
>>
>>12315253
The best way to get better at tysoning is to be forced to, especially when a map is designed around it. Why do you need the ammo if you never have to use it? It's just a number on your hud at that point.
>>
>>12315258
I've been forcing myself to berserk fist lone revenants and hell nobles lately regardless of how much ammo I have. I'm better off for it.
