ol' ogre doesn't care anymore
for me? it's quake
>>12555390>quakeMore like wake me up inside
I've updated Crematomania with a large update. Among the changes is MAP02, which is now shorter at the end section and there is an optional way to skip a part of it at the cost of no backpack. Whole changelog can be viewed on DW, DB or Time of Doom.
>>12555398Will the update get an update to update it to the latest up to date update?
>>12555408
>>12555386He sure don't.
>>12555386>>12555418Is that the same map? Why do the screenshots look so different? Is there that much variance between the game's appearance in different engines/source-ports?
Neat map, fuck all ammo though unless I missed something.
>>12555421They're the same sourceport, but >>12555418 is running with 8-bit color and 1/2 rendering scale.
>>12555432Oh rightJust the first one was so much brighterLike it's the Quake version of ZDaemon gamma settings lol
>>12555385Only got to experience these before with emulating. Pretty short, but still so awesome that they're on PC now.
>>12555379Current status on the Eternity project?
>>12555460It's a shame Quake enemies are so thick that this sort of gameplay doesn't work.
>>12555446New map here >>12549559
>>12555462Even if the Lightning Gun isn't anywhere as strong as Doom's BFG, Quake still has quad damage.

>>12555379>>> CLASSIC DOOM CHALLENGE <<< Record a UV-Max demo of Sawdust, Map 02 "Severred World" by Skillsaw (-complevel 11)Reply to this post with a demo & your time.Wad download and current records:https://dsdarchive.com/wads/sawdust?level=Map+02Example demo in 4:47:https://files.catbox.moe/us4uba.lmpChallenge winner a little while ago: Memento Mori II, Map 01 in 1:42 >>12541318Been busy lately. This is one of the lesser known Skillsaw wads. It's basically just repurposed scraps from Valiant, but still a good wad. At first I thought the map title was a elite-tier pun, but now I'm pretty sure it's just a typo...
Goddamn, what a crazy map. I know Time of Death maps aren't everyone's cup of tea, but I do find them pretty fun for the most part.(although key progress like in this map does get overly convoluted with what to do sometimes).I'm also personally finding Slaughterfest 3 to be pretty ass compared to SF2012 for the most part, though
>>12555554Finally, the fine cinema references that Duke is known for. What map tho?
>>12555638Exodus, neat experimental map (2 actually) by some russian it seems.https://www.moddb.com/mods/duke-nukem-3d-exodus
>>12555662Thanks!
I really enjoyed Legacy of Rust, but I've seen a number of anons shit on it. Is it purely because of corporate side and/or kex engine or is there something people heavily dislike on the gameplay side?
Anyone know any Quake maps with really good outdoors environments? Stuff like forests, cliff faces, terrain, etc... Most resources focus on hard surfaces so I want to steal some techniques directly from other people's maps.
>>12555735I hate Xaser's maps. I hate that they tutorialize weapons you've already been using for the entire episode. I hate that they are just extreme difficulty spikes and complete bullshit if you don't already know they're coming. I particularly hate how much filler the final map has before you get one chance to take out the two dozen archviles and baby cyberdemons at the end. His contributions to the project sour the experience as a whole.
>>12555738hear, hear.
>>12555738Well, my top 3 favorite maps from the pack are not done by Xaser so that's something I understand. He's made a great soundtrack and I didn't exactly hate Xaser's maps, Coiled City was great, but yeah, an argument could be made that mapping wise, Legacy of Rust gets carried by others.
>>12555756Coiled City was frustrating, but ultimately doable. The last two maps were just tedious and I gave up on trying to beat the set saveless because of it. I know he didn't work on the penultimate map, but that one also has a lot of the same issues as the final map. It's a complete departure from the other maps of the set in terms of difficulty, on top of being the main inclusion of a console-targeted port bugs me. I don't mind a punishing mapset, but these are extreme spikes that come out of nowhere and right at the end.
>>12555762Heh. It just so happens that the penultimate level, Soul Silo, is actually my favorite. Granted I also gave up doing saveless by the time I got to it... but came back sometime later and did a pistol start UV max with no saves.Brink, on the other hand, yeah I'm not even bothering. It's true that half the map is filler, and second half is blink wrong and your ass is fried.
>>12555738>one chanceSave the damn game.
>>12555446I've been lazily working on the 2nd map I said I'd contribute. I figured I could take my time since everyone else who said they'd make a map has done similarly. Now that we have another one, I think I'll dedicate more time to it, but I still don't have a precise estimate for when it'll be finished.
>>12555567GGs
>>12555601Funny I just started playing through Valiant.Chaingun go BRRT
finally beat all of redneck rampage the maps of 66 and rides again actually make the whole thing alot more tolerable its kind of impressive how much of a step up they are
Does this look like it was designed with brushes to you guys? Ignoring the processing noise since it's ripped and cleaned directly from some old game files, it's pretty much composed of convex brush looking shapes and grid aligned with the smallest grid unit also being aligned to a single world space texel. But top-down it also kind of resembles normal mesh extrusion modeling.
>>12556087
>>12556087level editors for old games basically all used some kind of csg modelling approach, nobody just sits down in 3ds and models out a level polygon by polygon, the only other viable approach was modular design
>>12556087Impossible to tell from that picture. If it is made from brushes, it wasn't with the Quake 1, 2, or Half-Life BSP formats since there aren't nearly enough edge splits going on. More likely to be Quake 3, Unreal, or something proprietary based on those.What game is it from?
>>12556110>csgIs it possible to learn this power? Have I been doing everything wrong by sitting in Trenchbroom and making everything by hand?
>>12556163bsp brushes are just a subtype of csg
>>12556164https://youtu.be/NebWPNung-s?t=14
>>12556171CSG is just building complex shapes by joining lots of simple shapes instead of trying to make them directly with face extrusions or vertex wrangling.Brush-based mapping is exactly that, with the added caveat that brushes have to be convex.
annoying map desuThe last 2/3rds of my successful demo consists of me cowardly plasmaing/chaingunning 4 cybers from a distance.Also there was this one attempt where I reached the end and reflexively hit the exit switch before killing everything.
>>12556234
not even doom music
>>12556239Careful with that one, it's an antique.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVBalxt3NEU
>>12556239
>>12556238Is that intentionally slowed down, or is your computer running that slowly because of all the ghosts?
>>12556248Intentionally slowed down to 50% speed, though it does lag a bit at the start of the webm.I also disabled the pain palette and other palette effects so you can see what's going on.
>>12556239Doom? More like POOm!https://youtu.be/qG2HwH1JkAI
>>12555379i've begun working my way through the pineapple under the sea speedmapping group's wads and they're pretty fun. i'm on the 5th or so right now (castle-themed) (skipped the christmas one because i'm not in the mood, i'll go back at the end of the year).
>>12556250>>12556250>Intentionally slowed down to 50% speed, though it does lag a bit at the start of the webm.Right that makes sense now. I saw the "crunch" at the start and wondered why it never recovered to full speed.
>>12553891> I wish there was a middle groundIt's called making episodes. You get to keep your shit, but only for a while.You can seriously make the resets happen as often as you want, like every third level or so.
>>12555446I should try to finish my map.
Does anyone know where I can download doom64.kpf? I need it to get Doom 64 working in Delta Touch but I can't find it anywhere.
>>12553891You can still have that kind of escalation with pistol starts, by just offering those weapons at the beginning of a map. Trying to build around the amount of ammo or health a player may or may not have is pretty much impossible.
>>12554372Seemingly. Woof/Nugget has been starting work on implementing Decorate/Declarate, and I think some support for UDMF, which would only make sense for MBF2y.
>>12556271Never mind, found it.
>>12555183posted in wrong threadstill where the fuck the dopefish came from?
>>12555460This is not fun.You are not having fun with this.Yes. My definition of fun is better than yours.
>>12556435https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Dopefish>The Dopefish is originally an enemy from Commander Keen IV, designed by Tom Hall, a large green fish, prominently bucktoothed, and famous as the second stupidest creature in the universe (the first stupidest being the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal from Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy book series). Its thought patterns were described simply as "swim, swim, hungry, swim, swim, hungry".>Easter eggs referencing the character were common in Apogee Software games, and have since become an industry wide in-joke. The dopefish itself, or the sentence "dopefish lives!" have appeared in Quake, Quake II, Rage, Daikatana, Anachronox, Duke Nukem 3D, Descent, Kingpin, Max Payne, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and more.S'all I know mate. In Doom, there's one drawn on a wall in linedefs in some dtwid or dtwid-le map, and a sprite version of the thing appears as the boss of the d2twid super secret map
>>12556441I liked the other maps, thougheverbeitExcept map 04 which I was stuck on for way too long
>>12555830This. Youtubers single segmenting maps blind have been the worst thing to happen to the Doom community since the influx of trannies. You DO NOT need to single segment a mapset first time, saveless is meant to be a challenge. Saving mid level is NOT "save scumming" unless you're doing it mid-fight. The number of annoying tryhards who tie their ego and self-worth to playing hard wads without saving is getting tiresome.
>>12556239Is there any lore what happened to the guy after his videos. It's been more than 20 years after that faggot did what he did. He might as well be dead now. If he is, I hope that he at least suffered. I also hope that he got raped at least once. If anyone deserves to get raped, it's him.
>>12556453The secret levels contribute enormously to D2TWID's SOVL-factor.
>>12556506Said tryhard are also streamers. And these ego driven faggots start to die like complete idiots, repeating the entire level multiple times until they get so angry that they stop acting like a reasonable human being and act like monkeys. At this point they then go on a tirade of insults against the author and shit all over the wad they're supposed to playtest.
>>12556509IIRC, people on Ogrish (gore site) put a $1000 bounty on him, and someone who knew him IRL actually doxed him. Something like that.This shit was a very long time ago now, a lifetime, really, and it could unfortunately be very difficult to get authorities to even pay attention to animal cruelty cases at the time (even in jurisdictions where there's actual laws on it), so I don't know it turned out in the end, he may have only gotten fines or community service. He was a minor at the time IIRC, which would probably affect sentencing and even his criminal record.
>>12556506>>12556606The blind saveless single-attempt max run is the ultimate proof of skill. Only the best can achieve it. Is it any wonder that players want to strive for the ideal?
>>12556581I hope you mean the two Keen-themed maps and not the dungheap that is map33. I'm sure they only included it to troll the sad retard who made it and thought he was making a genuinely id-quality thematically-accurate doom2 map.
>>12556506Wrong. This is a retards attempt at justifying sace scumming by playing dogshit maps. A good map doesn't require save scumming. A good map shouldn't require trial error. A good map doesn't need some faggot's piss poor attempts at "difficulty" with 2 dozen Arch's because "Teehee! My mad is SO hardcore! >:)" If the map maker throws constant unfair bullshit at you then it's either save scum or retry from the very beginning. It's a bad map from either perspective and no matter how you try to justify it, it comes off retarded.>muh e-credit I want an actual fair challenge. Who's more e-cred? Someone who acknowledges the map is bad and quits or some dumb fucker who save scums constantly KNOWING bullshit is going to happen?>bro, just do a saveless AFTER you've died enough times to know the layout of this map better than your neighborhood Shut the fuck up, slaughternigger.
>>12556673What's a fair challenge? "I came close to dying a few times, but didn't"? "I died but only once or twice"? What's an example of a map that you think is a fair challenge?
>>12556673This is the retardation I was mentioning. Nobody is impressed you refuse to ever save mid-level no matter what.
I think it's a hallmark of Doom's good design that it can support everything from survival horror, corridor crawls to maps that use its default mechanics on a scale far beyond what could ever be envisioned by the developers, and these types of maps each do find their own traction among whole demographics of players.
>>12556673>blah blah blah save scum blah blah blahIf you think even saving ONCE is save scumming then you're the retard.
>Get to the end of a fairly long map>Huh, a few demons are left, that's fine.>Go looking for them>Find a fucking BFG that wasn't even a secret around a cornerWell this would have been nice to have earlier! Fuck!
>>12556749hear hear
>>12556757This is like all the times I found a Quad Damage in Quake after everything was dead.
>>12556772hehI'm not sure what's worse:(a) finding an invulnerability, once everything is dead(b) finding an invulnerability, before the fight, then constantly "saving it for later", until you realise everything is dead
Slipgate Rangers feedback (I forgot what your email was and can't find it):-Alternate ammo types don't have an icon on the HUD, and the numerical quantities of them are replaced with the standard ones when the scav perk kicks in. Since this is HUD stuff, it might be limited by CSQC, I'm not sure.-Dissolution's earthquake effect lasts forever. I was playing Cave of Death when I noticed it.-There was a level in Dissolution I was going to, might've been R1M2 but it had me trying and failing to download a .mdl until it gave up and dropped me from the server. The model name was something like m_rock0. I reconnected immediately and it let me into the level, albeit my inventory was wiped.
>>12555379Project notekeeping.>1. 666 Minutes Of /vr/BTSX Textures and Limit Removing, 666 minutes to make your map (ergo 11hrs and 6min). Scheduled after Eternity Project.>2.

Waifu Project 2?There was one really good idea for this the thread before the last, but seemingly not much more interest/discussion afterwards.Perhaps it's better to discuss an idea like this once the previous two items are done. (Don't forget that one, Hexanon).
>>12556743>keeps bringing up e-creditStop projecting, lil bro. Nobody is impressed you beat a map with a gorillion enemies.>>12556754>i-i swear i only did once >in fact, i uphold it as my moral duty to only save once per level!Sure, bud.
In Daikatana, does Nharre's Nightmare call you a faggot if you use it with no target and it attacks you?
>>12556817>>i-i swear i only did once >>in fact, i uphold it as my moral duty to only save once per level!Retard, I'm playing to have fun. You might see playing Doom as some weird street cred thing, but I'm here to play a game. Feel free to fire back with some further schizoid ramblings as some last word thing, but I'm done engaging with your idiocy now.
>>12556801I also have a question that's more for quakeworld/FTEQW in general: How do skins work?ezQuake and FTE both have the qw gamedir that has a skins folder, and I assume this gamedir is used at all times, which might mean that any player (in a mod with default player.mdl) with a skin name matching one in this folder has it applied. Does it only appear if you've downloaded their skin off a website, or does the server read it from their own folder, then lets you download it? I know Quake 2 allows for downloading these things, I don't know if it's been backported.
>>12555443>heard server silly>another community finished>whatever hate plasma>fight die dead>kinda forgot nuts>sick mission>doomguy chocolate fantasy
>>12556845>>doomguy chocolate fantasy

>>12556852I bet MArt1And00m3r11339 already used it
>>12556867lol he definitely had more of a theme going than I previously realized
>>12556874>using EP to refer to doom mapsHuh.It's short for episode and not the record format I assume, but it's capitalized...?
>>12556787>(b) finding an invulnerability, before the fight, then constantly "saving it for later", until you realise everything is deadliterally never happened to me. The vast majority of fight with an invuln visible before are heavily front loaded with a retarded amount of top tier monsters
>>12556921Really? I've played no end of maps that place invulnerabilities I end up never needing and never pick up before reaching the map exit with all monsters dead. Starting from the Doom and Doom II IWADs!
wtf, this map is not fair and balanced at all!
>>12556938play slaughterslop maps get slaughterslopped on

>>12556997Commendatori
How do you launch games in your quake source port?>-game parameter>gui menu>games/game console commands
>>12557017In-game mods menu (Ironwail). descript.ion in the map folder for a proper name.
Lost Civilization really is long, but the maps are pretty. This map had some NPC behind a bar in a room for some reason, but he wasn't interactive.
>>12557017Ironwail, so I just choose from a menu in-game.
>>12557017game id1/hipnotic/rogue/etc. in console, or cmd/batch/shortcut if required (like quoth). In-game menus take too long and are disorganized
>>12556801Thank you, yeah the icons for the ammo types have not been ported over, I will try and port over the HUD icons. There is an issue remembering the right icon for your armor too but it does still preserve the proper class. Yeah I think thats probably something to do with me combining rogue and dissolution earthquakes into one common earthquake code. Ill get that fixed I need to look into that I think thats some issue with precaching models, where it crashes you out with a bad model index and then is fine on reconnection. I need to put in a safeguard to prevent unsuccessful connections/map transitions from wiping inventories. >>12556835skins in quake 1 are baked into the models so you either need to have separate models for each skin or have multiskin setup where each skin is baked into the model. Unfortunately its not like quake 2 in that regard where skins are just PCX files that go with an md2. Multiskin was something I was going to look into myself theres a lot of brilliant skins out there I would love to preserve, I thought about throwing all the good ones into one skin pack, then all the star wars ones on 1 model, all the spiderman ones, etc... a problem with the old multiskin packs is that you would have some really great high effort stuff that would blend well with the art style and then you would have flat shaded MSpaint spiderman (which looks awesome but really clashes with the aesthetic all on one model.
>>12557017~ game rogue/fortress/rangerhq/etc.
Ah hell yeah I just found an awesome duke nukem skin. Here is also the regular duke nukem skin that is in like every single multiskin pack for comparison
>>12557052Top is much better, that looks more like Duke wearing a Ranger helmet. Bottom looks like one of those Chinese knock off toys that vaguely resembles what its imitating but even a child can see how retarded it looks.
>reach end of map>~40% kills missing>hunt for secrets just to close the gap little bitthis is gonna keep happening isn't it
>>12557061hahaha yeah thats the unfortunate part case for most quake skins hence my desire to find all the good ones and bundle them together, and put the MSpaint shit on their own skin dedicated to bad skins cause even though they are terrible they do have soul.
>>12557052
>>12557076What map?

>>12557115According to .zsh_history I played E1M4 Command Center for 7:29 on 2026-04-30
>>12555462>>12555468Athscukally someone made a bona fide, out and out slaughter mappack of three for Quoth. Quck, Quenching Urges of Constant Killing.https://www.quaddicted.com/db/v2/maps/1ebd8bcc6d1cc63d5aab3872373078c9f7f90b1dc38949f872f0dac4ce4a73dcIt's really good if you want Quake slaughter. There are also of course Tronyn maps and episodes such as Unforgiven, and Soul of Evil: Indian Summer (both the original and the update). A bit of a caveat: If you download it, remove the "sounds" folder. It changes the Quoth menu noises to a sample of a woman laughing. Not in a spooky way, just obnoxious as it relates (or doesn't) relate to Quake. Beyond this, Quck is quite the example of how Quake slaughter can work.
>>12557132I just realized that all these sexy particles and gibs is one of the big reasons why there's so little slaughter for Quake.
>>12557037>Unfortunately its not like quake 2 in that regard where skins are just PCX files that go with an md2But that's exactly what it is. There's a skins folder containing a base.pcx (default quakeguy) and I could dump new .pcx files into it and change my appearance in console, all in real-time. Maybe it's exclusive to FTE?
>>12557120>sector shadowsBeautiful. Sovlfvl, as you people say.
>>12555430Link was?
>>12557164Lost Civilization, Map 11.
>>12557141God damn I gotta figure this out then cause I was under the impression they had to be baked into the model. I didnt know quake1 could just load model textures. I knew you could change skins in QW but I thought that was just loading another player.mdl with another set of skins on it. Well if I can find all the original bmp/pcx/png files this should be alot easier.
>>12557115I like playing pwads with Thy Flesh Consumed so yesterday.I was gonna do an Arcane Dimensions Chaos Mode challenge post using e1m1 but I actually can't beat the level in a timely manner so I'm holding off :x
I wonder if fog can be added to eduke32, and I wonder why they didn't added it yet
>>12557141>>12557175This is definitely a Quakeworld and/or FTE thing. You can't do this in most Quake ports. At best you can just replace an EXISTING texture in a model with an external one.
>>12557175Apparently the need for separate models was a Netquake thing, and id added support for Quake 2/3 style content download as early as Quakeworld. I didn't know that.If you're looking for skins, I've got a folder and some zips lying around with at least 100 of them. I warn you, it isn't organized and there's a fair bit of duplicates.
fuugggggggggI was wasting so much time carefully mapping out floors, walls, and ceilings for a cave system, then I realized you could just chain a bunch of brushes together, put them in a big ass cube, and hit the subtract button
>>12557202that was the impression I was under too.>>12557204now seeing this though it seems vaguely familiar, I have just been so overloaded with information lately its hard to keep track of everything haha. I get like the strangest sense of deja vu working on this sometimes too.
>>12557132Played it on Hard. On first map I didn't know how to release the spawns. The last map gives you a lot of cells but no thunderbolt for some reason. Was it meant to be played continuously?
>>12557191there is distance fog in vanilla Duke. The issue is it's 2 dimensional, so if something is high up but technically right in front of you it will be lit up. Polymer has true radial fog but that renderer was left unfinished during optimisation phase of development.Eduke adds 4 fugly fog colours by default, they been here for years but mappers only recently started experimenting with these. Big mods like AMC or Alien Armageddon have more colours.The problem is Duke scene is very different to Quake or Doom. No one makes his own art or code modifications. There's 2 guys who made those big mods above and people work with new features in these or map pure vanilla
>>12557191>>12557225baked in flat fog sprites like a foot or two off the ground with some parallax would be fucking spooky if you could hide some like slimer facehugger type enemies under the fog layer. of course you would have to make em a little more threatening than slimers but that would be a fun idea.
>>12557214How'd it turn out?
>>12557230dynamic lights in Polymer can be made negative, taking light away instead
>>12555605sf3 is definitely worse than sf2012, there's a reason it was shelved until 2018 (it was supposed to be sf2013)still beter than 2011 though. but yeah ToD's maps in all three wads are definitely highlights.

>>12555605>>12557254It wasn't even ready for release. Ribbiks--who wasn't the first project manager, it'd already gone through several others--gave up fixing all the bugs in it, and passed it to Archi who proceeded to dump it on /idgames, bugs and all
>>12557260spider mastermind should ignore friendly fire and force that minion to target doomguy that the fuck else is he using that "mastermind" for.
>>12557052>>12557061>>12557090Donk Nonkem.
>>12557254I had high hopes for Phml's maps in this too, because their previous SF contributions were pretty dang great (especially their maps in sf2011), but their stuff in 3 felt a tad underbaked.
>>12557260b-but, that's a caco's fireball, not an imp's..?
>>12557263Probably explains why the trainwreck that is map 21 was released in the sorry state it's in. That secret fight was inexcusable.
>>12557274My mistake. It was a fireball nonetheless.
>>12557094I can't stand reading the cacoward descriptions. They're the silliest, most pretentious and self-important things I've read on the internet>MMMhhhmm yessss this masterwork of a wad is cronenburgian in its scope and intricate craftsmanship hmmmm yessss this mapsmith of unparalleled prestige mastercrafts worlds that harken of the cavernous, gigarian despair of the human soul hhmmmmmm I'm touching myself nowThat nice. It's a fucking Doom wad and it looks good.
>>12557278Interesting question really. I mean, does this look like fire to you? Or is it plasma? Or even electricity? Some say the cacodemons spit electricity, I guess because its attacking sprite has blue crackles in its mouth.
>>12557305It's just fire. Purpley rcane hell magic fire. Don't over-think it.

But I did look it up, turns out I've actually heard about it before, just didn't recognize the phrase. Thanks regardless.>>12557305These and fireblu texture are things I consider to be some sort of unnatural, corrupted hellfire. We have blue fire in Doom already in form of those blue torches so it's not even a stretch.
here's example of one of the default fog colors in eduke from that new release
>>12557393I'll download that. Where it be.
>>12557431ahit really isn't that good
>>12557525told you its fugly. I found the use for it though, at right shade it can look like sunlight at dawn or dusk
Italo Doom map 14This map took me way more attempts than it should have, since it really doesn't feel like it should be that difficult.I guess there's very little weapons/ammo for quite a while, and there's arch viles zapping you all over the place.

>>12557550Cool
>>12557742Serious Sam, set the blood mode to Hippie.
>>12557837i'm not particularly keen on the ridiculousness of flying homing chainsaw launchers, but if it doesn't have the crude gunk that the duke nukem series has then i'll give it a shot
>>12557757It's surprisingly good. Everything got upgraded to feel and play like a standard first person game...which means you don't get to interact with the UI and the world nearly as much. It also is way too focused on recycling desu. On the upside radiation noise won't kill your will to live and exploration is mostly better thanks to more detail and suxh.Don't get me wrong, I had a lot of fun but they're fundamentally different games and one doesn't invalidate the other. Play both, but play the OG first!
what's the difference between netradiant and netradiant-custom?
>>12557892Custom has more features + it's own optimized version of the Q3bsp2 compiler.
Man, I missed playing this at 30fp and at even lower resolutions.Would be neat if I could have in hand my old Samsung CRT (and if I had the space enough to use that monitor too.
>>12557171Thanks!
can't tell if the wads i'm playing just have really obvious secrets or if i'm getting better at secret hunting
a long time ago when i was new here and getting started someone told me "be not a taker, also give, learn to make maps" and at the time my sentiment was "i'm too new at doom to even dream of it" but it's been a few years of dooming now and i think i'm ready to give it a try.are there any good resources for getting started? i don't really see anything specific in the op unless i'm completely blind + stupid.
Got a couple of Ashes Blackwater questions>What's the old locket for, I'm at the point where I have all three keys and I've went to every NPC I can think of in the hub+varni and none of them seem to interact with it.>I vaguely recall some area with a bunch of switches that when interacted with gave a "there's no power message". At some point I turned on a generator, I remember it had E1M2 scribbled on it.

I've again scoured the maps I have access to but I can't for the life of me remember which one had these switches/doors.

>>12557982The Trenchbroom guy will literally turn down complete feature implementations of shit that has been in other editors for decades if the interface isn't pretty enough or the controls aren't 'intuitive' by whatever his standards are. Dude has some kinda wannabe Steve Jobs complex going on.

>I made this really amazing megawad>Also I made everything a shade of brown for some reason
>>12558018Better that, than a black and neon void.

>>12556130>it wasn't with the Quake 1, 2, or Half-Life BSP formats since there aren't nearly enough edge splits going ona single limited dissolve will clean up all of that

Hell To Pay is cool
>>12558018Read Spengler, Jünger and Schmitt to see the reason why brown is the dominant color of the world. The color of soil and shit, rich and liquid as artillery shocks it into landslide. Doom is a game about WAR and it should constantly remind you of this.

>>12558147It’s interesting how much more ‘brown’ Doom 2 is compared to Doom 1. Even the new enemy additions are lacking a lot of color, the pain elemental and hell knight are mostly just brown and tanned versions of the original sprites.

Doom Damnit! would take Doom screenshots tinted brown and call them Quake screenshotsI guess Quake 2 started to reverse the trend? At least, it's kind of orange from what I remember.[ Except of course, orange is just brown but brighter, seriously try it in a HSV color selector. ]Anyway Quake 2 heralded the age of godawful colored lighting anyway, or was that Unreal with a graphics card?

Then there was also "Not Even Quake Music" in the bizarro version of YTMND, PTKFGS.This picture also predates N.E.D.M. meme as a whole, and is one of the "loadbearing" "lolcats," as an edit of this pic was the very first instance of the phrase "i can haz cheeseburger?"

>>12557968Kind of just fuck around with editing software, like said. UDB is extremely easy to learn and use, very userfriendly and intuitive.For editing Doom, MBF21 is easy enough to deal with and understand, gives you a lot of options if you really want to, but you can get by on ignoring the stuff that seems complicated, you only truly need the basic stuff.You can of course also do Vanilla, though I personally always felt there were some inexplicable gaps and inflexibilities in it, limit removing or not.Slade is also generally easy to use. Some quirks, but mostly straightforward. You'd use Slade to do things like add new textures or a music track, etc.
>>12558018Sometimes that's what a .wad is and I'm ok with it.
Legit, I feel that you can get away with a lot of brown and tan as long as you don't stay with Doom 2's first two brown skies, the contrast of just dropping E1s sky into Doom 2's first third IMO does shitloads to make it feel less brown and look more interesting.
