Maybe add some revenants to the megahealth maze? Idk, you'll think of something. One other thing is the polish of the map. It looks like you spent as much time texturing the megahealth maze as you did the entire rest of the map. Some beautification would go a really long way, especially since it's a fairly fun, focused map.

Hey there. I made a wad for DUMP 3 As well. I posted it on the ZDoom forums, but I figured I should put it here as well. Requires cc4-tex.wad and duke-tex.wad(From realm667) https://www.dropbox.com/s/ge6ikxnb38zw2ga/a%20night%20at%20the%20opera.zip?dl=1 Also, dumb question, was I supposed to include the custom textures in the wad myself?

Idk, you'll think of something. On the topic of the maze, I was just testing the map in Zanondrum Software mode to make sure it worked right. Let's just say that the maze is considerably more "atmospheric" in Zanondrum.

Really cool experience and the main stage and draw of the curtain were inspired. I'm couldn't really tell if I was meant to be jumping a lot, it seems like a lot of the pickups are on raised surfaces that require jumps but I also managed to finish without the yellow skull, but I think those doors were meant to be exits only or at least secondary to the blue skull ones. Good map!

Good map! Thank you! Yes, jumping is allowed. Also yes, you only need one key to get to the stage. Just a little variety for choosing different paths.

The scale of the map is crazy in a good way. I had fun playing it and also enjoyed the almost MAP01 chainsaw secret. I really enjoyed the secret super shotgun on the "church" but I think I got the regular one immediately afterwards. Also, was teleporting out onto the bridge meant to be a secret? I thought you had to go that way to get the yellow skull but maybe I did something in a weird sequence.

Thanks, no i deliberately set up the teleporters to move you past the bars into the middle of the bridge. So you can jump down and go thru the fort over the broken bridge, or use a tele. Glad you liked it

I don't know if this is my fault, but I couldn't find out how to proceed after picking up the BFG and killing the teleporting monsters. Was there supposed to be a switch? Temin_Dump posted:Requires cc4-tex.wad and duke-tex.wad(From realm667) Do I need to have them in the same folder as your map for it to work properly? Humans Among Us posted:E2; Allright, hope u guys like my first ever 'completed' map in the history of me loving around with editors Fun map. Reminds me a lot of the Memento Moris, both in terms of general aesthetics and the non-linear, puzzle-oriented gameplay. - It seems a bit arbitrary that I can jump on the roof with the shellbox from the Super Shotgun secret, but not on the roof to the right. Why have an invisible wall there? - The secret teleporter next to the Rocket Launcher is pointless since all it does is save you five seconds of backtracking, but I kinda dig it. It adds to the feeling of interconnectedness that is present in the whole map. - Some of the leaps are annoying if you don't have mouselook enabled, but that's not a problem if you're intending to submit this map to DUMP. - Do the helmets on the library shelves exist solely to annoy people trying to get 100% items? Because if so, I approve. - Health might be a bit too generous, at least on UV. The opposition is fairly light (not a bad thing since the main focus is on exploration), yet you're given two Soulsphere, a green and blue armour, and quite a few medkits as well. - Same goes for ammo. I'm pretty sure there are enough cells to murder every single monster with the Plasma Gun, which seems rather excessive. - Speaking of armour, it would arguably make more sense to switch the location of the green and blue one, since you're likely to find the latter first, negating the point of the former. - There's one Cacodemon who only seems to activate when you jump down into the lava pit, which is annoying because you otherwise have no reason to go down there. - Both times I played through the map, I ended with 100% secrets, but 99% kills. I don't know if that's just me missing an enemy or if there's a monster that's inaccessible.

Samuel Clemens posted:Do I need to have them in the same folder as your map for it to work properly? I don't think so. They do need to be loaded into whatever sourceport you're using along with the map. The easiest way would probably be to use some kind of wad launcher and have all of them in there at the same time. Sorry for the confusion. I could have sworn there was a thing that said not to have the custom textures directly in the wad file.

Thanks for the write-up The roofs of the 2 huts you can't jump on let you fall thru the map for some reason... ( maybe the angle on the slopes is borked? ) The TP behind the rocket launcher is to give you a choice because i found that opening the regular door to the broken bridge part tends to clutter with enemies. There is one stealth demon on the map, while all the others are regular spectres, which makes no sense but it kept suprising me while testing so i left it in  The rest are all also extremely valid points but i was anxious to get this up and playable, since i spend like 2 nights nonstop working on this map lol (after some time of getting accustomed to doombuilder)

I played CLIFSIDE (the runaround?) and enjoyed racing through all the teleports but i didn't care too much for the maze area, which you can totally walk past ( ) It was fast and fun and when i saw the BFG i knew a big baddy would come and i wasn't dissapointed. At one point i got turned around and was back at the first floor tho because the tele's go both ways. Probably going to play all the other maps that people linked here tonite

CJacobs posted:Aww, that's a shame. I checked out its steam page and it looks like it's got basically none of the elements of the wad that I liked in it! A page late, but Unloved the standalone game vs. Unloved the Doom mod is basically the textbook case of why giving laypeople access to all of, say, DO4M's raw modding tools would not result in anything that looks very good. The author, having made levels that feel amazing in the original Doom engine, completely shits the bed when he gives himself the task of making something half as compelling in a modern engine. And it's not even due to any particular deficiency on his own part, I don't think, aside from that of not knowing or recognizing his own limits.

Temin_Dump posted:I don't think so. They do need to be loaded into whatever sourceport you're using along with the map. Thanks, I got it working. Echoing Icept's sentiment, the centre fight with the rising curtain is pretty drat cool. I'm digging the black-and-white aesthetic as well. - I'm usually not a big fan of the "hit a switch and a door opens somewhere else" approach, but I think it works out nicely here because the doors are clearly visually distinct and even give you a helpful hint when you try to activate them. - Some of the one-way doors have skulls next to them, which makes it seem like they require a key. Might be better to just leave them blank. - As fantastic as the main hall looks, it's kind of a pain to fight in there since the seats tend to block you and the lack of colour makes it difficult to spot the Cyberdemon's rockets. I don't know if there's anything you can do about that without destroying the aesthetic. though. - The outside area on the front feels somewhat pointless since there's nothing there except for a bunch of random monsters. Not a big deal by any means, but having some ammo or something along those lines would make exploring it feel a bit more rewarding. - Not sure what the intended method for obtaining the Soulsphere is. I got it by making a tricky jump off the railing, but that felt a bit too finicky to be the "proper" way. - The final Archvile is a pushover, but I think that's fine. The main attraction is the stage fight, after all.  I don't know if that's intentional, but one of the Mancs in the front row seems to be stuck and can't actually attack you. I guess he's just very captivated by the performance.   I don't have anything to say about this screenshot, I just posted it because I love the lighting. It looks gorgeous. LogicalFallacy posted:There's supposed to be a spider demon that teleports in as well. Killing that opens the way to the exit. Did you still have monsters in the middle when you picked it up? Yeah, this one worked. I guess one of the monsters I left alive must have blocked him from spawning in. Also, that final room on pistol start is pretty hectic.

Sounds like you're using GZDoom, which as you know is in OpenGL. Ironically, if you used actual software rendering, which in ZDoom and GZDoom is drawn to a DirectX9 surface, Shadowplay will pick it up fine. Shadowplay does not at this stage hook into OpenGL, although it can record OpenGL with desktop mode, even in fullscreen, but hotkey focus tends to get lost.

I made a video of me playing through my level on Hurt Me Plenty: https://youtu.be/z6lc-lajUmA I play it (badly (on purpose) spoiler-free, so that you can experience it for yourself as freshly as possible. It's also the latest and final I mean it this time version, as I found a few bad difficulty flags, and 4 bad textures. You can get the thing at: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwC0_bVs2ISnWnBlNGhsNDYtZTA&pageId=116383459165995562192 if you really want to, and that's the last time I'm going to mention the thing in here.
