List of maps that need work and bug reports, also links to updated maps.
Post bug reports in this thread and I will update this post.

Submit new maps with ones that need replaced!

ATTN: Mappers can use the latest daily build so the new Final Doom textures can be used.

Doom Builder 2 Mapping cfgs,
Freedoom
Ultimate Freedoom

All bug reports are for the latest official daily builds. http://free.doomers.org/

Maps with names next to them are known to be currently worked on.

ALL MAPS NEED PLAY TESTING IN SKILL LEVELS 2,3 and 4.

-= Freedoom =-

map01: HOM in sky by balcony, door sector|secret path missing colormap. Also In the basement area with the brown fog, the scrolling river of nukage carries you even if you aren't standing on it directly. So it needs to be changed from wind to only the floor carrying the player.
map03: more health on lower skills, maybe swapped into another mapslot
map05 - COOP Test, needs a gun at start, tagged multiplayer. Maybe an sg. During coop the suits can run out and players can lose keys making map nearly impossible with so much slime to run through. A decent fix may be to have the lowest area cause no damage. That should save enough health to grab red key and finish map. Other more logical ways may be possible. Maybe a small ledge in lower area so player can avoid damage.

map08 - COOP Test, Nobody could raise bars at exit. No idea. Maybe an Odamex bug.
map10: not finished, currently being worked on = xerent
map19: not finished, currently being worked on, crashes boom202 = dabski?
map23: route management, more keys(maybe all 6), locked doors or something is needed.
map24: is being remade = cato
map29: monsters can get trapped on lift corners blocking player.
map30: retexturing?
map31: now playable, has both exits, Currently being worked on =cato
map32: not finished, currently being worked on = Archfile

-= Ultimate Freedoom =-

E1M5: currently being worked on = Zok
E1M6: looks very nice but no monsters or ammo
E1M7: Possible trap around 1159, 2567, -128..blue key door area
E1M8: Lots of HOM in sky, big lift in middle HOM at edges.

E2M3: not started
E2M4: Elevator bugs, one door is meant to be jammed, but something is still buggy
E2M5: not started
E2M6: not started
E2M7: not finished, currently being worked on = lareman
E2M8: not finished, currently being worked on = Archfile

E3M2: not finished
E3M3: not finished, currently being worked on = Truedude
E3M4: not finished, currently being worked on = NKo
E3M5: not started
E3M9: not finished, currently being worked on = Truedude

E4M2: not finished, currently being worked on = ghostlydeath

Reminder: MAP09 rev7 is in incoming, but has not made it to GIT logs yet.
This rev has multi-player fixes, and other general update.
Would like to hear from coop players on suitability of item placements.

Sorry, but that link only offers me a chance to download my own upload zip file. I already have a copy. I have GIT on another system, but have never used it before (we use Subversion). I lack all information on how and where to upload into FreeDoom GIT, and probably the permissions. How to submit to FreeDoom still says that I should put it into the incoming directory. (was that post aimed at someone else ??)

Yes, after three lines of ranting the penny drops :-) It was almost certainly aimed at MikeRS/chungy, Freedoom's illustrious, yet errant and currently AWOL maintainer. (Or at least anyone else who has a key for ssh access to push to freedoom.git.)

Anyway I've turned Catoptromancy's post into a patch series and sent it to chungy's email address. Hopefully if all he has to do is run "git am", that will get things moving faster.

Remember an awesome map can take months to make, not 24 hours...especially if you just started mapping.

Also, I fell into the pit and was trapped.

Remember this is the final map of the game. A half dozen sectors is tiny for a map.

I've been working on map03 and did a bit of a overhaul on it. Made it a tad shorter, more detail, added a little DM area for shits and giggles.
I'm still working on proper item placement and difficulty levels, but i figured I'd see if anyone would give it a look see and give suggestions before I called it good.

Wow it's almost like a whole new map. It's pretty easy, which I prefer, I always thought map03 was a bit hard for the slot it was in.

Anyway there are some bugs

- linedefs 2168 and 2170 need their types changing to 112, currently they rely on zdoom's zero tag handling

- linedefs 2176 and 2182 are doortracks but aren't lower-unpegged

- thing 11, the teleporter exit in sector 116 needs to exist on all skill levels, else one of the chaingunners doesn't teleport

- the chainsaw secret appears to be unmarked and the pools of slime in that area don't damage you. Is this intentional?

Ah that's why he wouldn't tp in.

Hmm I thought I marked that secret. Maybe not (shrugs)
Will fix if needed.
As for the slime, just didn't mark it yet.

Thanks for the feedback! :)

Sorry I realised I said something misunderstandable - I don't mean the chainsaw secret isn't a marked as a proper secret area, I meant there was no indication that it was there. I'm not sure how you could find it without endless wall humping, or using the map cheat. Maybe I missed something, though.

You should at least give some sort of indication that there's a secret in the area. Just don't make the entrance to it too obvious. A good example of a "hidden in plain sight" secret is the first level of Requiem.

Ditto. Do not care for secret area that cannot find by careful looking.
Do not accept humping walls anymore, will bring up editor or other cheat
first.

Since it's been a week or so I went and fixed the obvious bugs I mentioned upthread (changelog, updated file)

I left the chainsaw secret alone though. If it was me I'd put it behind linedef 1161, in the wall opposite the switch that lets you out of that area. Then the asymmetry of the room is enough to hint at a secret there. Better than at the back of one of eight identical slime pits the monsters emerge from.

(Sigh, and I just noticed I typoed one of the linedef numbers in the commit message...)

Whee! I made a few more changes and fixed (think so...) the bugs/issues you guys found. Also kinda shoehorned a bit of the old sewer system at the end. I'm not quite married to the idea so if it seems "meh" taking it out would be a biggie.

Thanks for the update. Your version still has many of the bugs I reported, though. It would have been nice if you had started work from the fixed version I posted just above, but I guess you had already begun, or didn't see the post.

Edit: updated, fixed again, pushed out, updated file is here.

Sorry about that. I was working on it and didn't even think to grab it.

My bad. :(

Let me make sure I'm getting this right: If there's a map on the list with a bug report next to it but no name of a person currently working on it, I can take that map and fix it up? I feel like I owe something for starting map31 and then disappearing for a few decades.

There's this one big hallway in E2M8 that moves up and down and can crush you. At the end is a teleporter with a plasma cannon on top of it. So I figured I'd run there as soon as I could and then I would be teleported out of the hallway. Only problem is that there wasn't a teleporter. When I figured it out, it was too late.

I think the level would be better if that teleporter looking platform was taken out. It makes the player feel like the level is cheating.

Also, there's some texture misalignments in E2M1 (warning 600k images):

My E3M3 and E3M9 are pretty much done now, and looking at the list I notice E3M6 isn't on there, which I was considering doing. It isn't in the current Ultimate FreeDoom IWAD... Is it done, but not added in yet?

In the meantime, I'll probably do one more Episode 3 map (Likely E3M7) before moving on to E4M9. (A bit random but I have my reasons) I may do an Episode 2 map while I'm at it.
