Memfis Posted January 25, 2012 final beta version ------------------------------- Hi, I'm working on a vanilla E3 replacement for doom.wad. Basic ideas: Marble/wood/caves/hell theme. E3M1-E3M4 are underground maps, E3M5-E3M8 have some sky in them. Easy/medium difficulty, kinda like the original E3. E3M8 should be very long. It may or may not have bosses. No new graphics. Custom music is allowed and desired. First ... rocket launcher - e3m3 chaingun - e3m4 plasmagun - e3m5 BFG - e3m4 (secret), e3m6 (non-secret) backpack - e3m4 boss - e3m8 only (or no bosses at all) There is no specific rules for the other objects. Maps: e3m1 - done (by Memfis) e3m2 - done (by Memfis) e3m3 - done (by Antroid) e3m4 - done (by C30N9) e3m5 - done (by NoneeLlama) e3m6 - done (by purist) e3m7 - done (by Dragonsbrethren) e3m8 - done (by Sokoro and Memfis) e3m9 - in progress (by NoneeLlama) Screenies: So, anyone wants to join and make a map or two? :) 0 Share this post Link to post
hex11 Posted January 25, 2012 I made a short E3 style speedmap a month ago: http://www.doomworld.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1036275 It's a bit slaughterish though, and low-detail. You can use it and modify it for something if you want (I don't know if it's any good for that). I gotta finish my Undeath '94 map before I take on any other project. ;) 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted January 25, 2012 Hey, this is cool. Maybe i'll do something.... 0 Share this post Link to post
purist Posted January 25, 2012 I started an E3 map, which I intended as a last minute submission for DTWiD until I realised I was never going to finish in time. I've not worked on it since then so it's still very rough but you can either finish it or I can continue working on it later if you like. It would probably go in E3M6 or E3M7 if it can be beaten into shape. Link 0 Share this post Link to post
NoneeLlama Posted January 25, 2012 I was working on a map for e4m8 slot a while ago, and while it mainly tries to emulate the e4 style, it has some e3 touches as well. It's mostly untested/unfinished though, so you may run into some issues.

45th Parrallel Posted January 25, 2012 I could take a map but I am already working on something else 0 Share this post Link to post
Hellbent Posted January 25, 2012 There's an 8.6% chance I could complete a map for this. I have some half-finished e3 maps from dtwid feeling forlorn on my hd.... 0 Share this post Link to post
Memfis Posted January 25, 2012 purist said:Link Looks quite interesting! If you could finish it that would be wonderful. :) NoneeLlama said:Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?db7tqdbxc284kz2 Very nice! I really enjoyed playing it. I wanted longer e3m8, but you changed my mind. :) The only thing I didn't like is how you get full arsenal at the start. Isn't it much more fun when you have to look for weapons? If you change this, I'll gladly accept your map. The style is fine by the way. Well, maybe it could be a little more hellish, but my wad is not as strict as DTWID. :) Oh, and it probably needs more ammo for the final battle. 0 Share this post Link to post
Memfis Posted January 26, 2012 On the second thought, I think your map fits for e3m5 better, NoneeLlama. It makes a nice transition from underground to outdoor maps. Could you replace the boss battle with something else please? 0 Share this post Link to post

I have to finish my map for Interception first but I will hopefully get started next month. Is there an end date you're working to? 0 Share this post Link to post
nicolas monti Posted January 27, 2012 I would like to collaborate but I have to make 25 more levels :$ for my project. maybe next time! It's great to see people making levels for doom 1. 0 Share this post Link to post

NoneeLlama Posted February 17, 2012 Memfis, I decided to make a new level from scratch for e3m5, since modifying my older map doesn't go well (it's just too linear). I hope it's all right. 0 Share this post Link to post

Memfis Posted February 17, 2012 NoneeLlama: Of course it's all right. And more non-linearity is always good. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Memfis Posted March 10, 2012 I rejected maps my BigMemka and NoobBait because I thought they weren't good enough. Slots e3m4 and e3m7 are open again. 0 Share this post Link to post
Katamori Posted March 10, 2012 How many details are you planning? Because I may do something "classic" to E3M4. 0 Share this post Link to post
Marnetmar Posted March 10, 2012 I have some half finished E3 maps I might be able to spruce up for this. 0 Share this post Link to post
purist Posted March 22, 2012 Memfis - check your PM's I've sent you a first draft of E3M6 - Caco's Cauldron. Here's some screens: 0 Share this post Link to post
Memfis Posted March 25, 2012 That was a great map, purist. :) C30N9: I'll sign you up if you want. :) Judging by what I saw, your style is more suitable for this project than Katamori's. (no offence!) 0 Share this post Link to post
NoneeLlama Posted April 1, 2012 I've done a lot of work on E3M5 yesterday, so have some screenshots: 0 Share this post Link to post

(no offence!) Thanks. I'll take E3M4 (unless Katamori really wanted it). Judging by these screenshots, I think you need a classic theme, but not the same as DTWID. Right? 0 Share this post Link to post
