Marnetmar Posted September 14, 2011 Hmm, my map seems to be having a problem with vanilla. It opens in chocolatedoom but the very moment I press an arrow key, it crashes. What could be the cause for this? Searched the map for errors, came up with nothing. 0 Share this post Link to post
Marnetmar Posted September 14, 2011 There is no error message, it just crashes. 0 Share this post Link to post
Moustachio Posted September 14, 2011 Strange... Maybe something is missing from the level. Or maybe something is wrong with Chocolate Doom itself. Send your map to me so that I can try it out. 0 Share this post Link to post
Moustachio Posted September 14, 2011 The problem seemed to be where you put the player start. I moved it to inside the cave, and it worked perfectly. I suggest you do the same. 0 Share this post Link to post
Marnetmar Posted September 14, 2011 Wow, I never would've thought it could be something as simple as that. Thanks! 0 Share this post Link to post
C30N9 Posted September 15, 2011 I'm dumping Bloody Castle and start over. Because it needs a specific texture which is custom. I don't have ideas right now, but maybe I'll make an "Escape from" map (a homage map to the original one) if that's ok with you. 0 Share this post Link to post

Actually, this map was being made for PRCP, so I pretty much know what will be at the first point. However, it is in hell, and I need the use of the gray bricks, but they don't resemble hell. The only texture that fits is the white/gray bricks from Plutonia. I'll try to find something else since you liked it :), thank you for the offer. EDIT: Have sent an update to Matt534Dog for MAP25. 0 Share this post Link to post
molten_ Posted September 17, 2011 I'm almost done with my map (About 75-80%), so if anybody wants me to test their maps just drop me a PM :) 0 Share this post Link to post
C30N9 Posted September 17, 2011 That's it. I'm bored of my MAP23, anyone interested of taking it then he is going to get it. But valkiriforce is the first one who shown interest. If he wants it he'll get it. Also, thanks for sending me your maps. Though they all look long (monster count), I managed to play most of MAP06. Surprisingly, I haven't found any issues at all! Really! Usually I would fill my test results with pictures, but I can't find places to include. It is non-linear and has variety in gameplay. Good job. EDIT: Sometimes I speak too soon, but I just found something that MAY solve MAP23 slot. Yet I have to check first. Check EDIT2 for results. 0 Share this post Link to post

As for the open map slots, I think I'll wait just in case someone else comes along and wants to make a map. If it's just going to sit there empty for awhile, I may make another map... 0 Share this post Link to post
C30N9 Posted September 18, 2011 Well, the "thing" is actually an unfinished map that was made for CC4. But I asked TGH if I can take it for this project and leave open slots over there. It will get MAP23 if yes. 0 Share this post Link to post

Moustachio Posted September 18, 2011 Well, this is what I've wrote for the ending text screen, if it makes the idea sound any better: YOU STAND VICTORIOUS OVER THE HORDE. EVERY DEMON IN SIGHT TREMBLES AT YOUR PRESENCE. AS YOU PREPARE TO RID THE WORLD OF HELLSPAWN FOREVER, YOU FEEL A DARK SENSATION... YOU FEEL MORE POWERFUL NOW THAN EVER BEFORE. THE DEMONS NOW HAIL YOU AS THEIR KING. AS YOU STEP DOWN FROM THE CORPSE OF BARBATOS, YOU FEEL UNHOLY. DARK THOUGHTS START GOING THROUGH YOUR HEAD AS YOU SETTLE DOWN AND TAKE YOUR THRONE AS THE NEW KING OF HELL. REBUILDING HELL OUGHT TO BE A LOT MORE FUN THAN RUINING IT WAS... 0 Share this post Link to post
Marnetmar Posted September 18, 2011 Matt534Dog said:<snip> What's the fun if there's a victory? Here's an idea... The wall of terror crumbles before you as you stand victorious, knowing that you have conquered Hell once and for all...Or have you? Does this mean that everything the big guy in church forced into your brain as a kid is false? Where will all the bad people go when they die now? How were you able to destroy demons from hell with only simple mechanical weapons? Then, it begins to get hot... ...Very, very hot... ...Turns out you weren't even in Hell. 0 Share this post Link to post
Moustachio Posted September 18, 2011 I wanted to give the player a victory for completing the game, just not the victory they expected. 0 Share this post Link to post
valkiriforce Posted September 18, 2011 I'm not very fond of that ending...fighting hell just to join them? Sounds like the losing side... 0 Share this post Link to post
Moustachio Posted September 18, 2011 I know it sounds a bit stupid. It was just an idea though. Besides, I wanted at least some kind of twist at the end... 0 Share this post Link to post
valkiriforce Posted September 18, 2011 I agree, the ending should be really out there. Maybe it could have something to do with the portal technology like the first game, only backwards with the demons being trapped in some anti-dimensional space where they can never get through. Doomguy could make a home on Phobos where he keeps all his prized possessions in a gun shop, where he sells all kinds of awesome weaponry to UAC as a veteran of the war against the forces of hell. I dunno, just throwing out some wacky ideas. 0 Share this post Link to post
darkreaver Posted September 18, 2011 I mean no offense what so ever, but I have a feeling you dont like Matt534Dogs ending because of your beliefs, valkiri? Just asking =) I really liked it. Nice twist in my opinion. Not that I have anything to do with this project, just wanted to say I liked the twist. 0 Share this post Link to post
Megamur Posted September 18, 2011 Oh no. Are you all gonna do the "they're not demons after all! You can't kill demons with guns!" crap? Didn't we suffer enough with the DOOM movie and novels? 0 Share this post Link to post
