I used to map a LOT for Duke3D and other Build games during the late 90's, early 2000 era. At that time, Doom editing, at least for me, was shrouded with mystery (wtf is the internet?), but editing Build games was piss easy because all the tools were right in the CD.

Anyway, I'm glad to see there's a community still going strong. Pretty much like this one!

You made levels for Build games?

Do the level editors for those games like Duke 3D and Blood still work? And how different is level editing for Build games compared with Doom level editing?

Yes they do. If you download eduke32 www.eduke32.com it comes with mapster which works with modern OS.

eduke32 is also now compatible with many modern things like true room over room, dynamic lighting, high res textures, 3D models, etc

I can't tell how different it is to map from Doom though because I've only been mapping for Duke3D.

mapping for Duke3d is one of the hardest things I have ever mapped for. I even got further making a map for HL2 death match.

None of it made sense to me.

When you say "none of it made sense to me" are you claiming that it was merely hard to learn how to use the tools or that the actual tools you used were poor/difficult to use?

Sounds interesting, since I actually already have Eduke32 though I did not now it also had a map editor!

Do you have any idea if said editor also works with Blood since it uses the same engine?

I don't even think there is a windows port for Blood yet

and a cool trick is to stroke yourself until you get some pre-cum, then use the pre-cum to lube up the head of the penis, then keep stroking and wait for more pre-cum and repeat lubing (you could also spit on your head instead, or both), keep doing this for at least an hour while stopping yourself from ejaculating, then while you got some lubing going on, let 'er rip into a ziplock bag. Do this a couple times each week and you'll never feel the need to get laid again. :D

What the fuck?

I can't tell if this is serious or just some joke.
