Katamori Posted July 31, 2013 Okay so: are we modifying the maps of one SLIGE megaWAD? Or everyone is allowed to choose maps from a daily megaWAD whatever he wants?? Because in the first case, I think I'm gonna download today's daily megaWAD, upload it to my Dropbox and share the link here to make it available even after 1st of August. Also, for all the volunteers: please subscribe to this thread to know immediately when something new is happening here! Memfis is added to volunteers, but I'm not sure that whether we wants it or not. Hey pal, if you want to do something, just send me and I'll show that to Impboy! If he's gonna dislike it, just upload like your other 1-2 map masterpieces! ;) 0 Share this post Link to post
Dragonsbrethren Posted July 31, 2013 I kind of hope not, because I already started remaking one of the maps from whatever day's megawad I downloaded. 0 Share this post Link to post
Impboy4 Posted July 31, 2013 If everyone did the same daily megawad, there wouldn't be as much variety. Having diffrent daily megawads helps add that variety. For example, someone might have one megawad generated a few days ago, another might have one generated yesterday, and another would have one generated today. 0 Share this post Link to post

Katamori Posted August 1, 2013 I agree with Dragonsbrethren, but I had to ask. Thanks for answering anyway. Also, because it seems that I can't communicate with Impboy directly (he doesn't use Facebook, I don't use Skype), in the future he may do a new thread for the projects. It's up to him. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dagger147 Posted August 1, 2013 I've run into a couple of problems already. The map I've chosen has a ceiling called SLITE1. This particular texture doesn't exist in any of the wads I have loaded as resources (doom.wad, doom1.wad, doom2.wad, plutonia.wad, and tnt.wad). Also, when I want to test the map, I get the following error: W_AddFile: couldn't open C:\PrBoom Plus\prboom-plus-2.5.13/.wad I'm stumped as to what to do to fix these. 0 Share this post Link to post

Obsidian Posted August 1, 2013 GreyGhost sent me a copy of Ultimate Doom on Steam, so I'm back in the game. :) Also, why do all the SLIGE maps have at least one Dead Lost Soul at the start? Heheh. 0 Share this post Link to post
hex11 Posted August 2, 2013 It serves as a "watermark", along with the S-ceiling in the start room. It's to discourage people from uploading these maps and claiming them as their own work. BTW, there's a lot more to SLIGE than whatever defaults it spews out. It has command-line parameters to affect number of rooms, minimum light (I usually set that to 112, otherwise some maps get too dark), which IWAD to generate maps for, how tough monsters should be, etc. You can also create texture themes. 0 Share this post Link to post

Dragonsbrethren Posted August 2, 2013 Please don't do that, this is a Boom compatible wad. Set your Boom resources in Doom Builder to doom.wad. For testing, add prboom-plus as your port and check customize parameters so you can add -complevel 9 to the end. As long as you save your map first, it will work. 0 Share this post Link to post

Still not working right. I guess I'm just going to drop out of this endeavor. Sorry guys. 0 Share this post Link to post

Dragonsbrethren Posted August 2, 2013 No, not that. The result box under that, it should show something like this: -iwad "C:\DOOM\WADs\IWADs\DOOM.WAD" -skill "4" -file "C:\Users\Dragonsbrethren\Documents\DOOM\slige\730-map08.wad" "C:\Users\Dragonsbrethren\AppData\Local\Temp\2m3unx0w\tctmqe2y.wad" -warp 1 1 -complevel 9Particularly, I'm wondering if there's something in the paths that might be throwing prboom-plus off. You can always try the MSDOS paths checkbox and see if that helps. 0 Share this post Link to post

Dragonsbrethren Posted August 2, 2013 What slot is your map in? The -warp parameter should have two digits for Doom. -warp 1 will take you to E1M1. You didn't accidentally put it in a MAPxx slot, did you? Change that to EyMx through Edit > Map Options if you did. 0 Share this post Link to post

Dragonsbrethren Posted September 17, 2013 The first 1/2-2/3 of my map is done-ish, kind of put it off to the side since the deadline is so far away still, but I should probably get back to it so I can start another. 0 Share this post Link to post
Phendrena Posted September 18, 2013 Count me in as I think this could be a laugh! I'm going to use today's (18/09/13) megawad and i'll be bashing out MAP11 & MAP24 from that megawad. Not sure where I'll want to fit them in yet, perhaps E1Mx & E4mx. I'm still working on my map for Slaughterfest 2013, so I'll fit this one in around that. Dave 0 Share this post Link to post
Phendrena Posted October 5, 2013 Hi folks! I see there's been a massive amount going on since I signed up!!! Anyway.... I thought I'd give a quick update on where I am with this one. asu-map11 by Phendrena, on Flickr This, as you can see, is a side by side comparison of the SLIGE map and my version of the map. I haven't populated mine yet or added secrets/traps (I hope i'm doing this right btw!!!!) Dave 0 Share this post Link to post
