Blood Red Skies

Recommended Posts

Ok, heres the skinny. I'm working on a set of levels called "Raining Blood". All the metal heads ears just perked up. Its a slayer based wadset. The level titles include L1, Raining Blood, L2, Lacerated Sky, L3, Bleeding its Horror, and L4, Reign in Blood. Anyway, I got sidetracked. Basically I need a few different crimson looking skies. Red, dark, evil, you know the drill. Any suggested maps with this type of sky? Any and all help will kick ass.

Perhaps I could lend a hand? :)


After seeing your first map reborn? Sure. Maybe you could do two and I could do two.

Grimm, redskyx.bmp was 100% PERFECT for the level in the series I was working on (level 2, "Lacerated Sky"). I apreciate your time and applaud your insight into the world of cool red skies :p. Thanks again man.

Id still like to know how to get that hexen sky. Anyone?

Ok, I know how to import images/textures from an external wadfile. However, i do not know how to import images not in wadfiles. The extension for the images I recieved from grimm are *.bmp. How do I use said files in my level?

[EDIT] ok I tried to get Wintex to do said operation^. However, upon installation and executing Wintex.exe, I get the follwing file error:

Cannot find VBRUN300.dll

Im drownin folks.

It's a Visual Basic component required for Wintex to run. Run a search for it, make a copy, and paste it in the Wintex directory.

L1, Raining Blood...L4, Reign in Blood


Those two are abit too similar, I'd call level 4 Blood Reign - but thats just me.

Its a slayer based wad. The lyrics to the song "Raining Blood" are

"... Raining blood, from a lacerated sky. Bleeding its horror. creating my structure, now I shal REIGN IN BLOOD!"


Thats why I kinda used those names. I like em.

How do I take the file from Grimm (.bmp) and make it a functioning sky flat in wintex so i can implement it into my level?


[EDIT] To: EARTHQUAKE: If you ha a wadfile with redskyx.bmp allready in it, that would be helpful.

Heh. What yu want to do is go to patches, then hit "Load entry from file", then put in:

SKY? for Doom 1 (where ? equals the episode number) OR
RSKY1 1-11 in Doom2
RSKY2 12-21 in Doom2
RSKY3 21-30 in Doom2

Doom 2 level ranges are approximate, cause I don't edit for Doom 2. And dude, I doubt Earthquake is listening.

Use the plutonia one. Nothing beats that gibs and blood sky.


I almost think that that sky is scary. I gives me the creeps. It looks too much like meat.
