jimmy boag posted:Here's my first attempt a a Doom map. - I'm not a fan of dark rooms at all (though this is obviously my own preference), so I'm glad you restrained it to just the area where you pick up the Super Shotgun; I was expecting a lovely gently caress you trap upon picking it up but was pleasently surprised to see there wasn't one.  - The area where you battle the Hell Knights/Baron/Reenants was pretty brutal on first playthrough, especially the Baron's placement. Having him hid behind a wall right next to a chaingunner was what ended my first playthrough, due to having little health and having to rush the hitscan enemy only to get ambushed by the guy behind me. Felt like a cheap death, but in subsequent playthroughs I found a great way to deal with the entire area - by letting everything come out and then getting the gently caress out of there into the secret area with the megasphere and rocket launcher to let them in-fight. If that was a deliberate thing then kudos, it was a fun strategy to figure out and try to optimise. - Sticking to cheapness, the Mancubus' placement also felt cheap on my first playthrough; it's not fun fighting those guys with just your shotgun/super shotgun over long distance.  Of course, I found the hidden chaingun on my second or third playthrough which made it better. It's a well-placed secret that rewards attentive players (i.e. anybody but me) so good job with that!- I like to play without freelook so I didn't find the secret in the area with the red key until a later playthrough, when I shot the wall behind the imp on accident; even then, because I killed it I couldn't auto-aim to shoot up a second time! I'd suggest moving the imp down to be on level with the player and putting him behind a cage texture or something to keep him in place; you could even have two extra imps in their own cages besides the first one, and have the other two cages' walls have a different back texture to clue me in that the original cage has something up with it? Just thinking of some ideas off the top of my head here though. The subsequent secret, and the additional secrets after that one, works well however and I like how they wrap around back to the start of the map.

MixMasterMalaria posted:Redneck Rampage is on sale at GOG.com, is it worth the $2.99? Also, I picked up blood a while back and it's not very playable out of the box, is there a modern control scheme (freelook/WASD) and graphics update for that (akin to what's available for Doom?) Unlike Doom and Duke3d, the source code for Blood was never released, so all modernization has to be done with reverse engineering and guesswork. There's a guy working on a new engine for it (BloodXL) but it's not really playable yet and he's mostly focused on Dark Forces support at the moment. That said, I played it with One Unit Whole Mods installed, which also automatically set up mouselook and whatnot, and it was fine.

Is there any kind of Doom editor for Mac? Worst comes to worst, I can jump into wine, I'm sure, but I would love something native.

However, there's a fairly old one called Yadex which is for linux that can be made to run on OS X, but I can't help you with that. And without a 3D mode, it might be a pain in the rear end to use.

I was looking at stuff about the Goldeneye Doom WAD and I have to wonder if anyone's ever tried doing a source port of the N64 game like with Doom 64. I know Goldeneye Source is good, but I'd love to play the original online complete with chairs exploding when shot

The Kins posted:Nope. There was an official XBLA port in the works that would have had online multiplayer, but it kind of got caught up in a legal hell. I don't know if this is true or not, but apparently MGM and Activision (the company that currently holds the rights to James Bond games) were fine with it being released, but Nintendo still had some rights to it as well and did not want the game to be released.

So I've decided to give Doom mapping a try, and holy gently caress this is addicting. I wish I had more time to put into a map idea I've been playing around all day, but for now I'm just dropping some screenshots. What do you guys think? 3D screenshot Overhead view In-game shot It's only a room so far, but once I get some time (probably this weekend) I'm gonna try tackle the next area I've planned, which is large and open.

The only thing I'd say is that the area looks pretty tight. You could do with expanding it sideways a bit. Dooms pretty lax in level design requirements.

Count me in as being a new mapper as well, trying to get the hang of Doom Builder 2, but it's obvious it's way deeper than it first appears, just trying to make a door gave me trouble for a good half hour, unless there's some prefab ones I could of used. So far I just have a hallway with a side room with some enemies, just testing the waters as far as other stuff goes, once I'm sure I can create the basic pieces without trouble (doors, elevators, teleporters, etc) I'll start working on an actual map. Is there a good set of instructional videos out there? It wasn't until I saw one on doors that it clicked what I was doing wrong.

Doom mapping was really loving easy back when the game was new, it was just a matter of trying to create something novel with the limited toolbox you had. It's probably more complex now that maps can be actual 3D.

As I said, here are the THREE maps that were posted for the previous GOON WAD. Suicides and Abattoir Blues by me, and Fear of the Dark by somebody else...I didn't make a note on the author, but I bet he still pops in on this thread.

New gameplay video for Brutal Doom 0.16 is out. My player sounds are in and apart from sounding a little distorted (which might be Youtube's fault, not sure) I think it's pretty awesome. Needs a little more fine tuning, but awesome. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o17T6RgAtew

Pretty sure there's at least double that amount, but yeah, I did suggest he maybe lower the frequency of taunts. They happen almost a mile a minute. EDIT: Oh, wait, read the comments on the video and apparently there's just a taunt button so you can hear as many or as few as you want.

Those taunts are pretty good overall, but the way your voice pitches on some lines (specifically the classic "gently caress yourself" and pancreas lines) makes you sound like a freshly budding 13 year old with a pitch filter. The knock knock joke and choo choo lines were hilarious, as were most of the others. Still, brutal doom is turning Doom Guy into the Duke Nukem everybody wanted Duke Nukem to be. treat fucked around with this message at 05:22 on Apr 17, 2012 |

I dig the prowess; the capacity for violence (by your voicework)! That said, I would love it if .16 came with voice options so everyone can pick and choose whether they want fewer taunts/Danny Glover mode/no voices at all. (edit: I am a stupid, stupid imp who can't read the youtube comments; there will be said options!) Still on the fence about the former human voices, though. They remind me a bit of the Z-sec from Doom 3, except without the creepy unintelligible monster-babble that I love.

The guy who write ZDL has risen from the dead and released a beta build of qZDL, an updated rewrite in C++ and Qt so that it can also be used on OS X and Linux as well as Windows. So you Mac guys now have a cool launcher program and don't have to muck around with Terminal any more.

Love the voice work, the Doom comic lines are great to hear in game. I do think you should re-work "gently caress yourself" though, I really like the emphasis in the original.

Yeah, less pitch on the end of it, more emphasis on the hard F at the start. Same deal with the 'Is that a pancreas?' line. Beyond that? Keep it up.

Its a hard task to make us forget Danny Glover. The video is nice overall and i like that the taunting is through buttons. The only thing i don't like is the zombies screaming even after you rip them to pieces. It plays the sound on its full duration and that can get a bit noisy if you kill a bunch of them too fast.

The Pokemon Doom wad is certainly a surreal, confusing monster of a mod. But Brutal Pokemon Doom? The things I've seen... When you've experienced a poorly drawn-and-animated Totodile sprite suddenly incinerating your entire team, with you cowering inside the Pokemon hospital while their still-screaming bodies writhe in incandescent agony like living torches, and hear that abomination laugh in it's horrific, gravely, lifted-directly-from-the-cartoon-with-music-still-in-the-background voice, then maybe I can talk about the horrors I've witnessed. /edit: Also running through the insides of a cruise liner as a group, bursting into cabins to systematically gun down unaware pokemon still in their beds and having the dawning realization that you're literally turning into a no-hostages boat hijacker ChickenHeart fucked around with this message at 10:15 on Apr 18, 2012 |
