Please no.
I'm just now getting back into multiplayer doom after ~2009 or so. Wondering what are some good wads/flags for coop?
I think what I'd really like is something like chillax coop, but with a custom ruleset. Something like, add a 10 second cooldown respawn time for players, and if no players are alive, then monsters win, go to next map. Any wads that do anything like this?
Shotgun and SSG are shit meme weapons and chaingun is better.
I prefer The Imp's Song over At Doom's Gate
>>3255236
I dunno, but get ready to play complex doom, because it's the only goddamn thing you're gonna see

Same. Dooms gate is fucking horrible and so is most of PC soundtrack.
When I save my character in DoomRPG I get an error that says "User info descriptor too big", meaning a string in the .ini file is too long for the game to properly handle when I try to load the game up.
Is there a way around this or will I never play Doom 2 with my leveled-up Doomguy?
I'm that guy who asked which Hexen character to pick yesterday. I beat the first hub with the fighter and got the hidden weapon part thingy, didn't even get the steel key and didn't use it, hope that didn't make me miss anything important.
I'm having mixed feelings on Hexen so far, it doesn't feel like a Doomlike but it doesn't really feel like an actual adventure puzzle-based game either, it's like a weird jack of all trades, the puzzles aren't incredibly interesting and the fighting isn't quite as satisfying either. Fall damage is also the stupidest fucking thing they could've made. Is there something I'm missing ? I'm having fun but I'm afraid it'll get really, really repetitive. Does the monster roster get any better later on ? The levels are fine, albeit a bit confusing, and they manage to be pretty spooky sometimes with the ambiant sounds like in the guardian of steel.
>>3255264
Post news first, then link to old thread, you smacktard
>>3255305
protip
skip the shadow wood entirely. noclip through, grab the second weapon piece, do the boss map, but skip the rest.
the shadow wood is so fucking boring god damn
>>3255202
I found the one in the room with the green pool that leads to the shotgun. I actually also found a second one: on the hallway right out of there there's a different colored panel that opens out to a courtyard.
>>3255306
>>3255226
I don't plan to check the wiki any time soon. If it's the kind of thing that takes years, then I guess it's not super necessary to just beat the game. So that's good.
How come Doom has such a thriving community to this day, but it doesn't look like Quake does?
>>3255308
I'm not OP, I just saw that he didn't do it and figured he wouldn't. Can't do it faster than I did ;_;
>>3255334
what do you mean?
>>3255334
wat
>>3255334
Easier to make maps, easier to make sprites. Low system requirements made the game and mods for it accessible early, and that populary has only been built upon and expanded ever since.
BUT
Many of the old quake modders are still at it, but they went into quake 2, then goldsrc/quake 3, then Hl2 and Unreal modding while supporting new modders in all of those communities. So one could claim the vast Hl2 mod community has lineage stretching back to quake mods (case in point: TF2)
>>3255346
Okay, then why didn't you make a new thread, since news post is generally regarded as one of the best things about this thread
Maybe is worth replacing OP pasta with news post and OP pasta should be moved to a pastebin link
>>3255358
Because we've already gone through a shitfest of competing OPs several times now in the past month, and I have no interest in seeing that again.
>>3255334
You're probably just not looking hard enough.
Most of Quake's SP mapping community is on func_msgboard and Quaddicted, and new maps are getting released all the time.
>>3255358

You're right. You're the best thing about this thread. I love you anon, but we can never be together.

>>3255369
The news post is a fucking godsend, we aren't all NEETs who can watch every movement of every Doom community 24/7. Being able to quickly check one place to see all recent notable releases and happenings is insanely convenient and definitely one of the highlights of this general. It also provides continuous exposure for new modders looking for feedback across multiple threads without them having to repeatedly repost their work. If you don't think the news post is the tightest shit, get out of my Doom general.
I think it's funny that I've learned more about math through my doom modding ventures than I did in all the years of primary and secondary education put together
>>3255391
go play alien vendetta again and stop being salty about pretty things
>>3255395
The news post is a fleeting novelty, at most, and the amount of people so obsessed with defending it against the slightest criticism baffles me.
>>3255395
You're weird, dude.
>>3255408
It's a nice looking map but it runs like ass and the layout is boring and tedious to play. Plus it makes no good use of vertical/three-dimensional gameplay in the way actual Quake maps do.
You know what, I think I will play Alien Vendetta again.
I freshly beat original DOOM campaign (EP 1- EP 3) on UV.
Should i bother with EP4on UV?
>>3255409
>fleeting novelty
it's been a core part of the thread for two and a half years
>>3255395
if you want the news post, sure, whatever, fine
i'm not autistic enough to care much about it, unlike some other embarrassing people who get R E A L L Y U P S E T at its removal
but going around talking about how it's the best part of the threads and the only highlight is, frankly, insulting to everyone that comes here and posts here and actually makes the community what it is
/doom/ has survived and indeed thrived without something as trivial as news posts because in the end, the community relies on its members
not a tl;dr text dump of things another anon thought was notable
>>3255434
>core part
It's one post out of, on average, 600/700/800.
We've been fine without it. It's nice, but it's not important.
>>3255417
>It's a nice looking map but it runs like ass and the layout is boring and tedious to play
I don't think it flows nicely either, but the great mood and aesthetics make up for it. Contrary to what some people think, gameplay isn't actually everything for me.
"The Island" however is where I draw the line. It's an absolute chore to play despite how good some of the set pieces look.
>You know what, I think I will play Alien Vendetta again.
Yes, I did mean it. It's good.
>>3255434
It really hasn't, dude.
If you like it, I mean, that's cool and all. But don't play up its importance.
Seriously, it's just a news post.
>>3255440
the OP is one post out of 600, but only an idiot would argue the OP's not important
news post makes it easy to stay up to date without prowling the forums, which is why people want it
I saw someone post a mod before that looked to be a better brutal doom but forgot to save the name. Anyone know?

>>3255450
>but only an idiot would argue the OP's not important
do you know where you are
i'm starting to think /doom/ has slightly spoiled you
>>3255458
Was it based on brutal doom? because there are many spinoffs. Project Brutality being the most popular of them.
If not, Project MSX is an unrelated mod that does "modernized" visceral combat a lot better.

>>3255473
I'd say Project MSX does it differently rather than better. It's more in the vein of console shooters like Halo, whereas Burdul Dum is closer to vanilla Doom, the main differences being faster enemies and weapon reloading.

what did he meant by this?
>>3255506
Because it inspired me many times to try making a remake of it.
don't know why, maybe the music, maybe the story.
there are also some other bad games which are being remade in DOOM engine, just like this one:

That would require them to actually make something. :^)Aside from Moon Man Doom, which is bretty mediocre, they really haven't done anything.
Come on guys, let's have a little friendly competition. It shouldn't only be 4ch making stuff.

Just most of us know it isn't relevant to the topic.
>>3255573
All the good people on 8gag left when the site started crumbling to pieces and taking forever and a day to update the front page.
>>3255559
At this point Terminus should learn how2sprite, or just set Demonsteele in "dormant" mode.
He's managing DUMP3:BFG, there's also that new Booty project thing. And we all know how hard it is for 4channers to keep up with multiple projects, let alone one.
I know he browses here and he's going to give his POV (as he's on his right to do it so), I'm simply calling it like I see it
Why does E4M4 exist?
>>3255620
because otherwise doom.exe would crash if it can't find the E4M4 map lump
that's not a good thing.
>>3255624
so copypaste E4M2 into E4M4
problem solved :^)
>>3255626
>problem solved
it won't solve anything, people will still complain of an optional episode added years before release
>>3255262
/vr/ should make a server on Doomseeker asap.
I still enjoy online Invasion on Complex Doom tho, but I miss Samsara
>>3255630
i used to make instagib servers but Eric scares everyone away
>>3255620
A better question would be why E4M6 exists.
>>3255619
>and he's going to give his POV
Not really much to give aside from "yeah, pretty much".
I hate being idle, so I started up Booty while waiting for stuff to come in for DemonSteele, and it looks like history's going to repeat itself once more like it did with Metrood.
I really hope not, though. I am intent on avoiding that. Like you suggested, I'm trying my hand at little bits and pieces of spriting. Hardly anything noteworthy yet--in fact, actually kind of bad. But hey, progress.
DUMP 3 shouldn't be much of an issue since I have two co-hosts, and because everything's split between maps/weapons it should be much easier to manage.
I'm still having trouble with maps, but since roughly half of the entries will be weapons, that'll cut that workload in half. I know how to tweak weapons very easily.
>>3255638

oh boy, must be fun
any of you loutish negros wanna play UT99 some time

QUICK HELP
Is there a command line to speed the game up?
Like, run at 1.2x the speed.
>>3255693
no
you could recompile zdoom with a higher TICRATE though :^)
>>3255693
With PrBoom-plus (and iirc Eternity Engine, but could be wrong, positive about the former though) there is an option to change the game speed. Default is 100. so 1.2x speed would be 120.
Pic related.
>>3255697
I've tried that. If it doesn't segfault and crash, player movement and monster AI is fucked to unplayability.
>>3255653
What exactly is missing from Steele or Dreadnought? I find them both pretty fun and would say they feel far from unfinished.
>>3255725
Pretty sure Demonsteele is meant to have a third character, a twink named Larry
>>3255721
Checked Eternity Engine.
Although i couldn't find the option in menus, if you open up the system.cfg file it generates, you can edit the value of "realtic_clock_rate"
>>3255725
For Dreadnought, people repeatedly requested a full bestiary of enemies and its own levels. Even when on stream on Vinesauce last night, people were disappointed that it didn't come with its own levels.
DemonSteele is significantly more self-contained, so with it the problem is much smaller in comparison--there's a lot of sprites that need polishing and redoing.
>>3255731
No but seriously, Metrood was meant to have maps but the guy making them's hard drive crashed. Also sprites were promised but never forthcoming, IIRC.
Came too late in old thread, so asking here again:
How can I make middle textures actually passable? I want to make a secret door where you basically walk through the wall, but setting the "Walkable Middle Texture" flag apparently does jack shit.
I want the texture to be there from both sides, so it looks like a regular wall and you only discover the secret passage when actually passing.
>>3255758
Just set the middle textures on both sides of the linedef and don't make it impassable. I'm pretty sure the "walkable middle texture" flag actually makes the texture solid, so you can do things like fences that can't be walked through but can be jumped over.
>>3255758
walkable middle texture is for making bridges and platforms out of mid tex
just giving a linedef a midtex should do what you want without any special flags
>>3255798
a whole bunch of earlier posts were deleted at once, so
>>3255798
Lots of earlier posts were deleted as well. Just seems like it was time.

liked DUMP3 weapon ideas:
UT shock rifle ripoff
that chaingun shotgun someone posted last thread. primary for normal, secondary for SSG
>>3255840
rip off the whole game
wasn't DUMP III going to have weapon sprites for us
>>3255847
yeah we're still waiting on them
>>3255840
A shotgun that fires a projectile slug, the altfire being a grenade toss. Unfortunately, I don't think i can pull it off.
>>3255735
I guess I'm just content enough with a cool weapon set and/or mechanics since TCs are a rarity these days anyways.
>>3255849
back in the old days we didn't "wait" for "sprites", we opened quake with a random mod and spammed our shareware screenshot programs, and we liked it!
I just played ep 1 with project brutality, Cacotextures Lite, Alternate Dark Ambient Music, and a x3 enemy multiplier.
I could not have asked for a better gratuitous display of violence.
So I made my first map ever and it's pretty fucking shit but the quality does increase as the level goes on. I'm probably going to polish it and make sure nothing breaks, add a few rooms and submit it to DUMP3 just for shits and giggles. The main hurdle I have to get across is the very beginning. Right out of the start room is a long, open area with platforms to jump across to the other side. On the center platform is a shotgun. I really would prefer it if there wasn't a fucking shitty platforming segment, especially to get something as important as a shotgun. Problem is, I have no clue what to put in its place so the room isn't one big fucking open hall. Please help

the common answer is revenants
>>3255863
it's...it's beautiful
>>3255893
I was just working on my map. Originally, I was going to put an archvile behind a post-setpiece door (I showed off the fight in the last thread). I replaced him with four skeletons.
>>3255893
So maybe put a couple revenants, the shotgun on a pedestal in the center of a room, and the player has to run and get the shotgun right out of the gate in order to have a chance? I like it.
>>3255863
you a real one
>>3255863
Coooooooooooooool.

Speaking of this, anyone have any one handed grenade toss animations?

The hand looks a little angular, add more of a palm around the handle. Might as well take a photo of your hand and use that as a source.

You could also remove reloading, it's just a meme mechanic anyway.

Did you update GZDoom / keep ZDoom in your GZDoom directory and update ZDoom? Did you actually use GZDoom both times?
I ask because GZDoom and ZDoom seem to be using different versions of fmodex.dll now and after updating GZDoom, ZDoom no longer has sound.

Be good and playtest your level without using saves.
Have the level be routed in a way that makes sense that people can naturally solve if they are experienced with Doom.
I believe if you can't playtest your level without saves, you don't have enough skill to be an authority on what makes good balance beyond your scope.
Where you hide items should make sense in hindsight, where you hide enemies also. Every trap should have a counter that is solvable. Make the map interconnected so the player has fun dying in a cohesive space, as opposed to dying in room #54/175.
I think if you make a space that is fun to move around and solve, the player will put up with a lot more shit in the dying category.
Also use gimmicks sparingly, have something to distinguish your map, but don't have anything that will break the flow. Don't start the level too hard and peter out, and don't give a FUCK YOU to the player for almost beating the level if you have already set the pace.
Think of map-balancing as an Strategy Game. You have a limited resource pool, and if you over-spend, you have to mine minerals by dropping health-packs and alternate escape routes for the player.

Perhaps another application has taken control of your soundcard? I know that ASIO4All won't let anything but itself use your soundcard when it's on.

I say this crosses a huge moral line and should be dealt with in the harshest legal way possible.

Why do people do this?
>>3257112
Sorry I have a rant to spew so hopefully it doesn't end up being even more cringe about this.
You don't have to be Common Filth to understand things don't have to be overtly satanic in appearance to be satanic. The whole point is in deception and treachery and degeneracy. You are just as worse off watching MTV as you are playing Doom if we are going to be moralist about it, Marshall Mcluhan already checkmated all of this half a century ago.
Satanism boils down to even the most innocent kinds of selfishness (lol im so lazy lol), its why atheism is so big, people don't want to admit they are satanists in their own cultures viewpoint, so they build up a new "Belief System" or if you don't think its a belief system, just abbreviate it B.S. All the Satyrs and shit is just literal demonization of pagan cultures, which if that shit scares you, really shows how open minded you are: Falling for ancient military propaganda.
In my opinion shit is worse off for you when its more subtle, I'd rather have my satanic themes played upfront, than having to rewind the cassette to get them. At least you get disclosure, which allows you to be more of an adult about it, instead of having to hear it said to you: The "N" Word style, like a child.
People gather to see a man die, but run away to see a man born. If media could stop being schizophrenic about it... oh wait its anti-depressants/drugs that cause shootings... and also a million other things that make people unproductive. Its fucking nothing.
At the end of the day, everyone is going to look everywhere except the mirror, because electronic media has that effect on us. Blame the screen for raising your child instead of yourself for raising your child on a screen etc. The screen is so immersive you forget you exist, and you see everything in the world, and you blame and blame until you realize John you are the Demons.
>>3257165

>>3257204
If I WAS going to include them into the .pk3, this would be a wonderful way to do it.
But unfortunately, it would exclude playing the DUMP maps with non-DUMP weapons.
>>3257112
Gee I wonder what this thing in the corner of the box means! Probably nothing important. Here's your birthday present Jimmy.
>>3257183
There is plenty bad. Doesn't mean you can't play or enjoy the mod, however.
Most of the bad things are related to the creator being a dick (having to be dragged kicking and screaming into doing the bare minimum that could be counted as crediting the work of others, and then pretending like he did that all along, writing shitty spaghetti code, being weirdly enthusiastic about adding pictures of real dead people to the mod, insisting it's Doom 2.0, etc.) or the fanbase (being nuisances to other modders/mappers about BD support, making garbage train wreck 400mb mods full of spaghetti code, insisting it's literally Doom 2.0, etc.)
The only real problems with the mod itself are the ear rape from some sounds and the bugs, both of which are fixed by fan mods. Some people will complain that it drastically changes the balance from vanilla Doom, and it does, but as a mod (and not Doom 2.0) that's perfectly acceptable and even kinda the point.
If I ever met Mark himself I'd tell him he's an asshole, but that's fine because it's that way with a lot of art and artists. I have plenty of artists whose songs I listen to who I'm sure I'd hate if I ever met and I'm sure they'd hate me too.

How unfair would you rate the follwing trap:
The player has lost everything, even his fists.
On a ledge there is a plasma gun.
You can take a long jump to the ledge or a short one.
But no matter from where you jump, a suspended Archvile gets activated and the plasma gun is raised to unreachability.
A short piece of floor will raise to block the Archvile at least for a bit and if you do the long jump back, there is a pillar you can hide behind.
After 8 or so seconds the Archvile is suspended again.

Hell Revealed map14, it doesn't give you any weapons, apparently expects you to pistol your way past hordes first. the previous map13 isn't much better, it gives you a shotgun but nowhere near enough ammo to get past hordes of barons, hellknights, arachnotrons etc

yes it's doable but you're gonna be eating a lot of bullets scraping up those rockets

>>3257242
Read a basic tutorial, then look up the Decorate code for the basic original weapons in ZDoom, then copy say, the shotgun, chaingun or plasma rifle, then play around with values and frames and what not, maybe you want to make the plasma rifle shoot a stream of rockets instead of plasma, maybe you want the chaingun to fire twice as fast, maybe you want the shotgun to not have a pump animation and just shoot like a semi-automatic
Here's some basic tips I suggest:
Muzzle flashes look the best when each frame is only 1 tic long, and rendered in BRIGHT, remember that you don't necessarily need to use the Flash state to put in a muzzle flash (though the standard Doom weapons work this way)
In the Raise and Lower states, if you add a extra frame that's 0 tics long to each, the weapon will be raised and lowered twice as fast (I think this is practical)
Using A_Fire and A_FireCustomMissile is ultimately more practical than using A_CGun or A_FireMissile
https://www.dropbox.com/s/3bowebtk3fkh7w6/machinegun.wad?dl=0
Here's a super basic subgun I made because someone preferred that over the chaingun, combat wise, it behaves the same, but the graphics and animation is different, gives you a passing idea on how to do something really easy.

I am feeling confident over here. I really want to make a high octane map that's hard but not cheap. I am having loads of fun coming up with ways to keep the player moving forward. A good philosophy for myself as a newcomer: keep the player moving forward in tight spaces, small spaces so you don't get scope creep, and keep the player moving forward so they don't get too observant of a lack of aesthetic taste.
I want to warm up the player to any FUCK YOU tactics I may implore, spawn in weaker units in a rhythm that lets them get a sense to get used to certain tactics. And instead of lessening monsters, give more health and ammo and space. Just as long as I can keep planning fights and not just retarded placement I feel like this will be a blast. I want to make some secrets that are possible to find, that will make everything more survivable with less saving. Although I don't know if I will be able to balance the difficulty settings by the deadline.
If you find my first secret, you will get a clue on how to find the next secret, although I feel like the second one will be obvious.
I just hope mine doesn't end up being too difficult, I spawn you immediately beserking imps and zombie men from 360 degrees.
I really just get bored when I try to map so I spend most time designing fights that I wished I got to have.

>[05-29] Anon's latest Monster factions/infighting
Another minor update. Made factions (as far as args passed to scripts are concerned) start at 1 rather than 0. This is so that I can group the enemy faction setting in with the other flags, and not have to have it be negative and thus require users to input -100 for what was default behavior. I wanted to group them together to reduce the args from 4 to 3, so that if using the script via a function where a map would need to be specified, it wouldn't interfere. I might pack the two distance args together later, but since I don't need an extra arg right now I won't.
Links:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxbbtKR5bll_ZWNWS0ktN0RVS3M/view?usp=sharing
Version which starts infighting between all monsters with different class names as soon as map opens, should work with all mods:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxbbtKR5bll_TVB4TGN6U0ZYX2M/view?usp=sharing
Wall of text with full summary of how it works now:
Factions start at 1, go up to 50 right now or 50 total faction. Have to add more factions in acs, just increase 50 in
#libdefine NUM_FACTIONS 50
which is line 7, to whatever you want.
To have them look for memebers of enemy factions, use "faction_look" script from decorate, so for instance
ACS_NamedExecuteWithResult("faction_look", 0, 0, 0, 128)
Here are the arguments passed to the script:
First arg is combination of enemy faction and the following flags, with player flags first.
--enemy faction is sole to check when looking for targets. Set at 0 to check all enemy factions.
--player flags
0 won't target players
1 process players like other targets
2 prioritize player targets
--target processsing flags
0 pick first valid target
1 pick closest target
2 pick random target from valid targets
So to have the monster target monsters only in faction 5, process players like other targets, and to pick random targets from valid targets, have "512" as the argument passed to the script.

Glad you enjoy them lol. The last two updates have been like 10 lines of code to add/fix things; they're not a big deal I just gotta keep people updated I guess. There is more text explaining the change than the actual change in the code.
Unless something else pops up that would be good to add or a bug or something I think this will be the last update for this.
I like looking at maps, especially those generated by oblige. I know about Slade, but would be really happy if someone could point me to a tool that generates/shows isometric views of a map?

>HD texture mods
I will never understand why every 90's shooter has these mods. Its never going to look good, because it will always contrast badly with the level geometry and lighting.
How would I go about making an action happen/reverse depending on whether the player is in the corresponding sector?
Like when you step on a patch of floor a door opens and when you step off, it closes again.
So far I could only make that work with sector things. One placed inside the sector that opens the door and the other one placed outside that closes the door. But there has to be a more elegant solution, does it? Is there a function that checks whether player is in sector X?
Square is never gonna get finished, is it?
>>3257890
just put raise/lower linedefs around your sectors(paths)?
linedefs are one sided, if you orient them right it should work
>>3257906
technically only the teleport line special gives a shit about which side you crossed over it from, but the door opening special will usually end up blocking the door closing special in practice
also only solid walls are one-sided
>>3257890
if you're in zdoom, sector actions are going to be the cleanest way to do it
there is a "thing leaves sector" action though, use that for walking off the patch

Hey guys, are there any active Quake 3 Arena servers and where can I pirate an up to date client for it?
Well thanks to Shiver's sprites I have a basis for the first person sprite of the deployable robo drone. Can't find anything good to sit it on as a landing dock at the moment, though...
so I'm playing Plutonia Experiment with Brutal Doom-ZANDRONUM 1.1 and I the game sometimes keeps crashing if I try to load a save, but not always. If a save crashes once it will keep crashing no matter how many times I reload. It's kinda annoying, but I guess I can still finish all the levels without quick saving/loading, but it's still kinda annoying as Plutonia is dirt cheap at times with it's enemy placements.
Anyone had a similar problem?
Doom is pretty cool guys.
>>3258106
Plutonia is too hard to play with brutal doom. It makes hitscanners too powerful and Plutonia loves its chaingunners.

I'm still stuck on map15 on HMP, mostly because of how ridiculously fucking long it is. You're under constant assault of groups of mid tier mobs and you can't take a fucking breather. Worst part is, and I don't know if it's my fault or not, but I still haven't found a backpack. I have the BFG but sometimes ammo gets pretty tight because of that, considering the long ass waves you have to fight. Episode 2 is a lot of fun but the maps are way too long for their own good. Mostly too filled with monsters.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong. I'm trying to play Hdoom but when I follow the instructions on the guys tumblr it comes up with script error, "map info.txt" line 4 bad syntax.
In GZDB builder how do you make sure sectors actually remain hidden on automap? I checked the flag and it won't hide shit.
Also how do I add secrets in general?

Nah, just very quick entrance of sorts. I am going for sort of "secret arcane library", with high number of secrets and something that can still be rather easily ran through at high speed ( so the secrets / pathways interconnect the place ) - which might be challenging so that players won't meander aimlessly.

Good idea. Hellbound is intolerable in vanilla but gorgeous. I might play the last few maps with Demonsteele one of these days. I can't stand the thought of playing them in vanilla. It's too boring. The problem is the boring gameplay is offset by visuals like pic related. If I had to name one influence on the LOOK of my maps, it'd be Hellbound. I have a lot to live up to.

Only an idiot would think that. Just because its influence can be traced to half the first person games ever it hardly makes the source generic.

I think that Metal was a good genre for Doom at the time, but now that we're collectively used to more extreme gameplay Ambient is now the better music genre, aside from perhaps slaughter maps where you can keep up with the music's intensity. Otherwise it's FUCK MY LORD'S ASSHOLE screaming into your ears while you wander in mazes and shoot 3 enemies here and there.

A few of the rooms are actually pretty good, I think. A lot of them are also barren and boring. I've tried to mix things up with geometry, but outside of computer panels, pillars and cutting corners off, I haven't been able to come up with anything more interestingthis is my first map though and I've only been playing Doom for like two weeks, so its shittiness was inevitable
>>3259085
The Bio-Eradicator's Secondary fire is absolutely god-mode compared to the railgun fire. It took me 402 cells to take a cyberdemon down with primary, 175 with alt. The BFG consumes 120 to kill a Cyberdemon if you fire it as close as you possible can. It absolutely rips through hordes of enemies, due to being a piercing projectile, and would be unbelievably powerful on a terrible slaughtermap. Granted, the projectile does allow enemies to move out of the way, and the charge-up rate gives them time to get some hits in.
The Flakchette is pretty good, definitely fits with Doom's aesthetic. Taking out the two demon platforms in Tricks and Traps with altfire then primary spent roughly the same ammo. Might need some custom sounds though, as the explosion noise for alt is pretty strange.
>>3258414
>I don't like shitty wads
>just got done playing the Nuts series
>>3259169
try making an outdoor area that leads to other buildings maybe?
>>3259172
So do you think the railgun damage output needs to come up? I think you misunderstood exactly what I meant by "balance", the alt fire on the eradicator is designed to be wildly superior to primary fire but burn up ammo like mad; "balance" here refers to a weapon being under or over-powered compared to the weapon it replaces and in relation to the game itself, which in my experience is harder than making the damn things in the first place
Useful feedback though, thanks anon. Hope you had fun ruining shit with that eradicator alt

Bit more than lurk, I've been around for a while. I like all y'all. You're cool.
And yeah, /dump/. Kind of obvious, but I'm working on the pistol/fist replacement you start with, combining it into a single weapon so the focus goes on everyone else's weapons. Pistol is a semi-auto fire-as-fast-as-you-can-click little thing that gets more inaccurate the most you spam it. If you pace your shots steadily, it stays pretty accurate. Lower-than-normal damage (5-10 as opposed to 5-15), but much fast rate of fire makes up for it.
Alt-fire is a fast knife attack. Very fast.
Not sure what the Berserk effect should be. Probably gonna have the pistol shoot two bullets instead of one and have the knife stab harder.
>>3259225
>no promises on code depending upon length
fair enough, luckily i have a shitload of code already written, it just won't work
the entire weapon is complete except for the pickup sprite and making the goddamned decorate work
>>3259235
Seems to me like it should be absolutely piddly if it's going to be capable of firing that quickly with infinite ammo. But I guess a "my first gun" compilation doesn't exactly place balance very high on the priority list.
>>3259246
That's true. I'll lower it down to about 2-8 instead of 5-10.
Any 2hu mods?
>>3259235
Did Mike12 finish editing the Expert sprites? I haven't asked him about what he's done with them in a long time.
Berserk could be you get two pistols with no in-game justification and it's just the sprite rotated 90 degrees to the sides of the screen like a John Woo film.
>>3259257
I dunno. The version I'm using was touched up by Torrid and Captain J.
I should probably finish this monster pack soon.
Should I be starting out with a big dumb rectangle sector to contain the entire level? Is there a time-lapse video of someone making a doom level?

I should probably add onto this that the mapping process never started in the mapping program, at least for Romero, so the order of everything could be entirely arbitrary and not insightful in the least.
Still cool though.
I feel like FPV drone flying is the next iteration of my Doom "gotta go fast" needs. Has anyone else found themselves treading this route? I keep seeing these videos of people maneuvering them at high speeds through tight areas and all I can think of is Doom.
>>3259203
Not the other anon, but I have suggestions based on my own experience. When I hit a wall designing a map, I switch off monsters and take a peaceful walk through a wad I've beaten, complete with noclip/console commands to change levels when I want to look at something different.
Another approach could be thinking about what your map IS. Consider Doom 1. You start off in tech bases during episode 1. Then you start seeing marble in E2. Finally you arrive in hell in E3. Doom 2 introduces city maps to this mix. Plutonia adds jungles. Any of these is a good starting point for a theme.
Examples:
First, my DUMP 2 entry was a partially excavated marble temple. Humans were there at one point, judging by the presence of electric light, but they didn't get very far in, considering how the enemy density climbs as you go deeper underground.
Second, my DUMP 3 map is a hell level, with theming that's a mix of blood rivers and wooden structures. The UAC had an observation post set above one of the blood lakes, but they're long gone. The major setpiece is working your way up the blood river to the top of a bloodfall and killing everything up there. Good luck getting the gate open to go upriver in the first place, though.
In terms of gameplay, I think of making a level as playing a game of chess that you want to lose, but at the same time don't want to make it look like you're throwing it away.
Example:
At one point in my DUMP 3 map, the player walks over a trigger that wakes up a fuckton of monsters. The rocket launcher is in the middle of the nearest group to the trigger, but it was kind of hard to reach without being punched to death. Since you really need it to fight back against an already formidable wave, I took it out of the monster closet and put it on top of the trigger that opens it instead. You still need the scrounge for ammo, but at least you can defend yourself until you get some. See the end of the webm for the old RL grab.

You should only really use textures that are derived from the original game's textures, but you can suplement it with customs if needed. Gun cabinets, item shelves, grey marble bricks, support variations, etc. Speaking of textures, I need someone to set this set of textures up for me, maybe get the exact credits. All I know is they were in Boothill.

>Doom 2
>Doomguy pushes the invasion back to hell and then kills John Romero, goes back to Earth and lived happily ever after.
>Doom 64
Turns out Doomguy has super PSTD and wants to move on, but demons show up elsewhere and the UAC send him back to hell because no one else can stop it. He kills the Demon Queen, finds out killing demons gives him purpose and decides to stay in hell forever.
So is Doom 2016 a sequel to Doom 64?
>>3259583
Yes, it is. Doom 3 has been moved to AU/spinoff status. But this isn't the place to talk about Doom 4.
>>3259583
It's vague enough so that it could be
It's also vague enough to be the sequel to any wad you've playedincluding HDoom
>>3259583
Doom 64 was Doom 3 before DOOM 3 came around.
Doomguy spent a lot of time in hell, Later recovered by UAC in the far far future when everyone decides to fuck with demons again due to their energy crisis.
>>3259583
Who cares?

>it could be very possible that every single custom .wad is a sequel to Doom 64
Doomguy finds a part of hell from millennia ago and now has togo medieval on their asses
>>3259597
>>3258920
Yes. If I just forcespawn it it doesn't move. If I change it's velocity, it uses standard movement physics. And the missile functions all have speed arguments and thus presumably do so as well.
I could put the missile attack right in the forcespawned dummy actor's states though. But then I wouldn't' be able to warp rather than spawn it - and using inventory items makes it possible to fire any number of weapons at once without spawning more shooter-actors

>lurking at work
you dun fucked up, Anon
ijon, if you happen to be lurking please help me in replicating the effect of your samsara slot pickups where there are intentional desyncs so that players see different sprites for the pickup actors depending upon class and if they have picked up the weapon yet. In this particular case I am comparing ConsolePlayerNumber() to the calling actor's Damage property.
I am doing this for the serious sam style pickups (one copy of each item for each player) that I tried to do way back in early 2014. The method I am using is having the decorate property "Damage" act as a method of (actually now that I think about it this might be the issue, maybe I should switch to using a user_var instead? at least for the _pickup actors) sending args which the spawners which class they should spawn (this works in offline skirmish, have not tested online) and which player number is the target player (this works, in offline skirmish, for the player or other actors being able to pick up the correct items but nothing will display correctly; I can either get the item to go to the visible state for all players or the visible state for no players, and from my fiddling around changing the state lengths to be the same does not fix anything.)
Here is a pastebin of the acs from the file:
http://pastebin.com/Kkfkf2kZ
and here is a pastebin of a relevant snippet of decorate from the file (the rest of the pickup and spawning actors are basically just more of the same):
http://pastebin.com/QaTB5GWi
And in case you actually want to download the whole thing, here is the file itself:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxbbtKR5bll_ZVpYa0RoczlmbFk/view?usp=sharing
I have included (what I believe is) all of the relevant code from samsara in a cleverly named folder called "relevant code from samsara."
Thanks for taking the time to look at this.
>>3259975
Turn off vsync and turn on rendering interpolation and uncapped framerate
>>3260019
thanks man, the game now feels 10 times better.
>>3260008
I don't believe user vars are synced between client and server - could be wrong though, haven't tested - but I'm pretty sure damage is, and it actually doesn't matter, since clientside ACS does what it wants, and you could just SetUserVar that way
ACS_ExecuteWithResult'ing a clientside script will still run the script on the server, since there's no way the script is returning anything in time if it did run on the client. dusk has said this is wonky behaviour, but it's what's standing right now, so w/e
I'm pretty tired, so troubleshooting code is out of the question, but the thought process in the code seems correct enough. everything's running serverside though, which is likely where problems are arising. so don't do that
So I'm trying to add a meter to the back of the rifle to show how much juice you got in
It looks like a fucking Dr. Mario pill now
>>3260008
Oh also forgot: I will test the user_var instead of Damage when I next get home, but the debug from the client side ACS correctly lists the damage so I'm not sure that's the issue. A
Also will confirm in a sec, but I think I left out a terminate in in the client side script, but that used to be an if/else with the state set to "nosee" under that else, but in that instance it did the exact opposite issue, putting it in the "cansee" state all the time.
I'm sure issue is me being dumb, but I don't know how zandronum handles client side stuff well enough to figure out what dumb thing I'm doing.
>>3259235
>Pistol is a semi-auto fire-as-fast-as-you-can-click little thing that gets more inaccurate the most you spam it. If you pace your shots steadily, it stays pretty accurate. Lower-than-normal damage (5-10 as opposed to 5-15), but much fast rate of fire makes up for it.
>Alt-fire is a fast knife attack. Very fast.
That looks EXTREMELY fast and fun. Noice.
>>3260037
Ah, I didn't see your reply while I was tapping out >>3260041 on my phone.
The very last script, 862, is clientsided (or would be, I guess, if not for the executewithresult issue you mentioned), but I checked the pastebin and the missing terminate issue I mentioned is present so no matter what it would set the state back to "nosee" at the end of the script. I was actually writing the script for the second time because I was dumb and closed the wrong file, erasing the first edit.
I think you solved it in your post--the issue is the executewithresult. I did actually change it to executealways (not because I knew anything about that issue, just because I was copying your code from samsara as closely as possible) but I only did this while fiddling around after I introduced the missing terminate issue, so what probably happened is while I did accidentally fix the first issue, I had already introduced a second bug. I can't test it for another six hours or so, but I bet that's the issue.
Thanks a ton for helping me solve this, it probably would have been another couple of hours before I stumbled back around to applying the right combination of fixes (assuming I didn't manage to introduce another issue in the meantime) and knowing that executewithresult issue will sure come in handy the next time I code something for zand. You're the best.
so uh
gzdoom is crashing with an access violation error whenever i fire a shot after map01 while playing a mod with custom weapons
the mod doesn't matter it seems, tried samsara, demonsteele and metroid dreadnought and they all caused crashes
>>3260062
Go back to the previous build.
>>3260037
Oh, also, even though problem is probably solved, posting this in case you'd want to use this method yourself for something different:
The damage isn't being desynced between client and server, it's just getting used to pass an arg.
The reason I'm using it is because it's one of the one of the couple of decorate expressions that can be passed as an arg to acs, isn't an actual arg[] so it won't interfere with anything else using those, and if you have to define a bunch of actors in decorate whose only difference is an arg they're passing, you can get away with one line per actor instead of having to define a state like with a user_var.
Anyone happen to have a copy of the preliminary DUMP 3 info? Seems the pastebin of it died.

>>3260149
It's a twisted a little, the player has to turn it to the side a little to get at the crank
Green might work nicely.
...Too much time pimping out the entrance, but I think it might be good idea to get the themes straight from here. Idea was to incorporate water, let's see how that works with the theme...

>>3260147

Probably gonna use that Blood shotgun loading hand with the doomguy glove for the actual hand to crank this
>>3260148
Oh hey the sight stuff I was confused about is gone, alright. But.. I have no idea how this gun is meant to be seen right now. Is it slanted to the side? Is it sitting up straight? What's going on?
>>3260164
It's slanted and twisted to the side, this is the normal idle frame
>>3260167
Err, why is the red/blue bar at the same angle to the viewer, then? The front section of the gun doesn't seem to be twist-able with that large area of flat metal along the body.
It looks like the entire gun's been tilted to one side except for that red/blue gadget and whatever that ring shaped thing is on the front of the shotgun.
>>3260171

I have no idea where to start with fixing this shit, that's the problem.
That and I kinda want to leave the meter facing the player for the sake of convenience. If I angled it, it might get really hard to read to see just how charged the weapon is.
>>3259835
https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/graphics/hand
>>3260180
I guess it's a matter of learning perspective (and what angle you actually want your gun to be at, it looks like you couldn't decide)! Maybe do some still life drawing of something mechanical nearby.
>>3260162
Your crank is going to have to be a little bigger. it's a hand holding it not two fingers.

Is it true that you go to hell if you use freelook?
>>3260326
You do, but only if you use freelook with autoaim.
>>3260326
Given the number of maps designed that puts chaingunners in high up places that would be impossible to see otherwise....
You are already in hell anyways.
>>3260326
You're already not playing true to the game since most people don't even have a computer that can natively run DOS now.
Do whatever you think is fun. But be honest about it. For example don't come in saying "HEY LADS I BEAT SUNLUST ON FIRST TRY" and forget to mention you were running Russian Overkill at the time.
>>3260329
Freelook with autoaim is useless anyway, since the autoaim will always snap to closer enemies even if you aim over their head at another enemy that's further away.
Tbh just play Doom however you want, at whichever difficulty you enjoy the most. Personally I play in GZDoom with freelook off and autoaim on to mimic vanilla behaviour.
>>3260326
If you turn autoaim off with it on, it's fine.
>>3260329
But anon, that's what I do and I'm not in hell. I like the ability to look around from freelook and the automation of autoaim. It's a good mix of the way doom used to play and what I grew up with.
I forgot, what's the difference between the Samsara 0.30 build and 0.31 beta? Noticed the latter doesn't have separate ZDoom and Z& builds like the former. Changelog doesn't have anything.
Uh, not too shabby, obviously it'd be faster and more dramatic in game, but it's cool watching that electricity arc up

Actually wait, looking at it now: the issue is the Damage being used. I thought it was that items were not showing up correctly but it was that some were getting picked up that shouldn't and leaving behind the items meant for the player and so they were visible.
It's not getting desynced, but it's not returning anything other than 0--at least on the inventory items. I assume this means that things that inherit from custominventory just can't have a "Damage" property that does anything, and that the scripts that should be setting them to have a value aren't doing anything.
It works fine on the spawners, which is why I thought it was alright from looking at the console, but they don't inherit from anything at the base. So using Damage for what I was doing is more limited than I thought, that's what I get for being clever.
Luckily the pain in the ass that got solved by the Damage is on the spawners (where it works), and the actual pickups all get their stuff set via script so it's not a big deal.
>>3260429
oh man you pic posted reminded me of this wad i once played where you're in some arctic research base and it got invaded by demons, it had a basic story to go with it, wish I could remember the name of it

Cold as hell.
Also if you don't know the movie that's from (The Thing) and which inspired the wad, you should go watch it now.
>>3260434
Oh wait herp a derp. The Damage called from the pickup state will always be 0, no matter what, cause I can't reference anything from the inventory item, and the arg has to be explicitly listed.
Welp. It's back to 64 actors per item like it was last time I took a crack at this.

I guess, technically. If you play DOOM and don't go to hell that'd be strange.

I feel terrible just reading your through all this. What kind of mentality is that? Are you so spoiled that you can't live without a modern OS port, even when DOSbox exist? And I don't even mean sourceport, because you guys would be totally fine with ports that recreate all the game's behaviours from scratch.
There -is- absolutely -nothing- wrong with playing Blood, or Redneck Rampage or any other FPS, in DOSbox. It runs perfectly fine, you can use bMouse, you can make maps for Blood (and some people still do).
I don't know what kind of "retro FPS fan" you claim to be if you're unwilling to play the actual games.
Not to mention that in the worst case scenarios you can always pirate the GoG version of those games which come pre-configured and you won't even have to type a single command line in DOSbox. You just need to setup.exe to configure controls, set the resolution, and maybe try a few different settings in the conf file.
This whole discussion shouldn't even happen in a thread like this.
How about this?

I cannot for the life of me understand why TNT Evilution and The Plutonia Experiment were commercially released. They are both god awful.
What is the appeal of unfair difficulty from bullshit encounters and horrendous level design?

DOSbox where not playing your native resolution and playing at sub-20 fps is GOOD thing.

If you are bitching about the colors, you just have to convert the sprites to .png with SLADE, is not that hard.
