I figured I'd post some screenshots of the progress of my first map for the goon megawad. Assuming of course we're still going to attempt to throw it together at some point. Progress is slow, but I like to think it's shaping up nicely. The white specks in the outdoor areas are rain if you couldn't tell.

Keep in mind that those lava pillars are polyobjects moving back and forth across the floor.

Octal posted:Is it me, or is it absolutely astounding that Doom and Blood and other classic FPS games have no real match in modern FPS gaming. What I really want to see is some of the guys from the very beginning just up and announce they're going to make a back to the roots kind of shooter. Despite having given us Daikatana, I think John Romero still knows what he's doing. Get him in a room with some of the other old developers like John Carmack, Tom Hall, or heck, even some of the guys who worked at 3D Realms before they pretty much stopped making games. But then again, something really and truly in the spirit of Doom or Duke Nukem 3D or Quake would probably bomb in today's market, because you'd have angry tweens screaming about how the game's impossible because your health doesn't magically regenerate and there's no button to hide behind a box while your enemies do the same.

Mak0rz posted:Semi-unrelated: How exactly does room-over-room works in the Doom engine (be it Doom 64 or through source ports). From what I gather it's just a case of a sort of invisible "elevator" that raises to the upper floor level when you pass a certain trigger, which would explain why it doesn't work when noclip is enabled and that enemies or ally players can't pass underneath it when someone is up there. I'm mostly just curious. What you seem to be describing is the usage of the bridge object, which is essentially an invisible, solid object of definable size and position. That's what I've got in my map to simulate the Rise of the Triad-style catwalks, and they behave essentially as you've described.

Although if this is seriously your first run, I'd do it without the hi-res textures. They're a bit oversaturated compared to the originals, and are actually too detailed in a respect... it's hard to explain, I guess, but the gist of it is that Duke's regular textures were kind of obscure enough that they could be multiple things, whereas a lot of the hi-res textures wreck that and make some things look really weird. (See: arcade game with cut-off buttons with pinball scores on them)

Duke also has a big number of really poor quality sound bytes that I'd never heard before. I'm assuming they came from one of the various console games or something because they are just fuzzy as poo poo.

It seems almost wrong to have the effects updated so much with Heretic++ and then use the same old MIDI dirges. Somebody did at least one for JDoom way back in the day. I probably still have it kicking around somewhere. I'll try and find it after I get out of work.

I kind of regret doing the taunts for Brutal Doom, because it seems like basically everyone hates them and I feel like I'm responsible for ruining a part of the game for everybody. Also would you please just stop reading this thread or something Tiger Schwert? You really don't have to bitch and whine about your beautiful, untouched original Doom experience being ruined every time somebody mentions Brutal Doom. Unless you're possessed of empathy on an unprecedented level, I really fail to see how the way that other people play the game affects you in any way.

The quality part I can definitely attest to. I did all the recording with a studio quality mic, but the stuff was a bit quiet for use in the Doom engine. All the volume increasing was done on SgtMarkIV's end, and I agree that he pushed it a little bit too far. I've posted my original source files in a couple places--here included, if I remember right--but nobody's come forward to try and make better versions of the clips. It's nice to hear I was misinterpreting things for the most part, though. From the sound of things, I thought people hated the taunts altogether and it sucks as an actor to hear people don't like your work. Also ChickenHeart I could maybe do that some time! I'd recommend trying me before the Halloween season hits off, though, since I work at a haunted house and my voice is going to go from Brutal Doomguy to Caleb from Blood in the course of a few weekends.

Those links should still be good. And if for some reason you wanted to look at that first recording session, it's up on my Tindeck.

Try using SLADE3 for editing PK3 files. It's the current standard for WAD/PK3/etc. editing. Using regular archive editors does tend to cause odd issues when working with them, so it's probably overall easier this way. EDIT: So, I think I'm in the minority here, but I absolutely hated the new sounds for everything in Doom 64. Would anybody else be interested in a replacement DOOMSND.SF2 for Doom 64 EX that replaces all the sounds with their original counterparts? I'm working on one for myself but I'd be glad to share it once it's done if anyone is interested. Chinese Tony Danza fucked around with this message at 05:42 on Sep 6, 2012 |

RiffRaff1138 posted:Any chance you could include the original Doom music as well? It just doesn't feel like Doom without the metal soundtrack. I am actually considering making a version that would include that, though it'd be a little more complicated since I'd have to replace the bank of music sounds with generic instruments and make a custom PWAD with the MIDI files edited to work with the new sound bank. Also, I'm a stickler for music fitting the setting and I'd want to make sure all the tracks matched the levels they were in. As it is, have the first version of my DOOMSND.SF2 file. To install this, just unpack it into your Doom64EX folder. You might want to make a backup of your original DOOMSND.SF2 first, just in case you decide you want the original sounds back. And if there are any weird glitches in this, let me know and I'll see if I can't fix them; I haven't gotten too far in my own Doom 64 playthrough so I haven't heard nearly all the replaced sounds to know if they all work properly.

So Doom 64 EX has some interesting bugs regarding the music. I was trying to import some of the classic music like somebody suggested a page or so ago, but it just doesn't want to work. Through combinations of adding new instruments to the soundfont and new MIDIs to a PWAD, the best results I've gotten are the game still working but the level just being silent. Worst case gives me an engine crash on starting a new game, which is really odd considering one of my attempts that made that happen was literally copying another song already in the game and renaming it to the first level's music. I've posted about it on their forums, but until I get an answer, sounds like it's just classic Doom sound effects for everyone and not music.

I just don't get why that is. Would it really be that difficult to improve the controls? Is the reason they don't seriously because one of the devs is an elitist prick who doesn't want to do anything to make the game more "accessible" for newcomers?

My favorite part is that there's not even anything in Brutal Doom that anybody could reasonably file a DMCA over. There aren't any graphics, sounds, or music lifted from anywhere else. It's all either original or edits of stuff already in the game. And yet there it goes. Do people even bother investigating DMCA claims, or do they always submit instantly? EDIT: And according to the contacts on their website, they're based in Paris, France. Isn't usage of DMCA outside the US considered fraudulent?

I figured I'd share this here as I think it's a fun exercise for anyone who's interested in Doom mapping: Mapping By Music It's a simple enough idea: take a song and build a level around it. Sure, the challenge part is on another forum, but I still think it's a worthwhile concept.

Apparently BFG Edition changes a lot of random poo poo in the original Doom episodes that come with it. I guess the Red Cross finally sought legal action against them for the red crosses on the stimpaks and medikits, so those have been replaced with ugly, poorly drawn pills. They also cut out the title screens and from what I've heard they also changed the secret levels in Doom 2 for some reason. Are they really that big of a change? No, not really. But it irks me. What I'm saying is if you're getting it because it comes with Doom and Doom 2, I don't think it's worth it. If you already own them, definitely not. As for the Doom 3 part, maybe if you don't already have it or if you desperately want the changes it makes to the engine, it might be a good idea.

I honestly can't imagine BFG being worth it at any rate, really. Unless it makes some changes to Doom 3 apart from cosmetic ones, there's just no appeal. I attempted to play through Doom 3 once and truth be told, I just could not get into it. Shortly after the monsters finally showed up, I just kind of stopped playing. It's like the complete opposite of fun. Walking around in pitch darkness and shooting a monster when it pops out of a hole in the wall is really, really boring.

XWE is an awful piece of poo poo that had support officially dropped for it like six years ago. It's known for corrupting WADs at the drop of a hat and I generally would advise against using it. Try Slade3 instead. A much better editor. I've had it crash... maybe once? And none of my data was corrupted or ruined by it.

It's very possible. All you have to do is open each of the maps in SLADE3, then make a new .WAD file, copy the maps into it, and then rename them in whatever sequence you want to play them. You can even make a MAPINFO lump with proper level names and custom skies and music and whatever if you're playing with (G)ZDoom.

Cream-of-Plenty posted:I've noticed there's a demographic in the Doom community that gets so angry when people build maps using, for example, GZDoom features. Like it's an affront to the entire concept of Doom. I've never understood this. Doomworld seems to do this A LOT. I was searching Google for something only tangentially related some days ago and stumbled upon a thread about Brutal Doom which was essentially a lot of complaining that it was "too modern" with people making comparisons to Call of Duty because the rifle has ironsights and poo poo. Also a guy compared my voice acting unfavorably to something from a lovely B-movie and called me "some guy trying to sound tough into his mic in his bedroom" and that kind of upset me. (Especially considering things that happened earlier that night regarding my dreams of acting, but that's neither here nor there.) I can see how it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, but so much of it was just "wah wah my pure unsoiled Doom experience!!"

Commander Keenan posted:Since Shadow Warrior Complete is now on GOG, it's probably in good taste to remove the download links to the addon packs. I'm 100% positive that neither of the add-ons were ever released commercially before now. The original intention was to sell them shortly after Shadow Warrior's release, but poorer sales than expected killed that idea. The devs of Twin Dragon released it for free not too long after cancellation, and Wanton Destruction was also released by one of the devs many years after the fact. So really, it's kind of silly to remove them since they have always been available for free up until this point.

So is there some way to force GZDoom to run in like, windowed fullscreen? You know, like it's technically windowed but there's no title bar or borders? I ask because I have this really, really annoying problem in the GL renderer only where 16:9 resolutions above 1280x720 screw up and for some reason squish the screen vertically like it's not at the right aspect ratio for my screen. It only happens in GL and only happens in fullscreen and nobody can give me a reason as to why.
