I had a burst of inspiration and started my freedoom map today!

I laid down 6000 sidedefs in 6 hours easily with lots of breaks (because build has the most kick-ass easiest to use sector drawing system ever), converted them with map2wad, and loaded them into deth with no errors. yippie!!!111111

i made 17 incremental backups during the BUILD session, and I crashed only twice, out of which one crash trashed my current map and i had to go back 10minutes to the last backup. I think build crashes mostly in 3d mode. anyway, here's a screenshot of the 3658 linedefs i need to texture now :/ ;)

Looks really nice :) What level are you assigned to / planning to have your map assigned to? Good luck with the texturing! :)

yeah i kind of got banned from here, so i'm already assigned to map31 (under a different name). you can change the assignment, but i would rather go by oblivion on the freedoom credits

Oh, my reply was written before I saw your post immediately before it. Erm, would you prefer another slot?

Edit: just gave your level a whirl and it looks great :) obviously the things that need to be done, need to be done.. but it looks super ultra mega happy fun promising, and while I'm not sure on it being a map31, it should definitely be an end-map.

i kinda sorta wanted map31, but if your judgement says it would be better elsewhere, whatever works :).

btw did the excessive "SLADWALL" give you any seisures? =D it's almost all gone now tho.

you think backwards: the utility included with duke is wad2map. i wrote map2wad a few weeks ago, so while its gh3tt0, its not 0ld5k00l :D

small bugfixes, nothing worth releasing. going to add support to set all sidedef sector refrences of all 2s linedefs in an inner area inside a sector; is very easy to do. then i'll release it.

is there any particular feature you're interested in? tell me ill code it.

Ok blah, well basically the text file for your wad says:

Authors MAY NOT use this .wad as the base for anything.

Everything in freedoom is supposed to be free; free to distribute without restriction and modify too. The only restriction we're making is that people must include credit to the freedoom project and its contributors if they use freedoom material.

Once you let me know this is OK then I'll drop your level into the build.

Sorry if this is really pedantic :) Chances are nobody will modify your level anyway so it probably doesnt matter.

No you're absolutely right. Not sure exactly what i was thinking when i did that. I will upload a revised version with a revised text file in a few minutes.

there. the map31 i just uploaded is a newer draft btw so make it replace the old one, not just the text file (which now gives the permissions you stated)

Can you make it so that it set the sidedef textures to something besides to greenie one...or make it so that we can change it with a cfg file or something? If that's possible...thanks.

heh heh heh, the reason i chose SLADWALL in the first place is because it revolts me. So when you touch up the level in doom, you remember to get rid of it all :p. but yeah, i'll add some functionality to change default texture.

I am going to start fixing up my Map01...I need to texturise it :P
