gggmork Posted September 6, 2014 Oh hellowe there! If you're bored like me, how about make a map where the player is the chump in your house of mirrors WTFville. Maybe stuff like: A teleport that just crushes you and doesn't warp. A door where everything BUT the door opens. Lava where lava is the only non-damaging place. (or any tricky stuff, not just stuff like that, cram as much as possible in your map, high density trickery, or whatever) Not really stuff where its like... oh I have a pistol and 5 million bullets and 1000 imps to tediously kill through a window. Not like overly tedious or map breaking or impossible stuff (can be hard, but impossible is dumb, and no malicious trolling like uh a virus in the wad or something). But devious/tricky/clever/'you bastard'/wtf/etc stuff. Like you know? 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted September 6, 2014 Or like a room where there are 50 switches and a door, and the door is actually the correct switch? Sounds like a fun community mapping project. 0 Share this post Link to post
gggmork Posted September 6, 2014 Yeah like you are Loki, the god of mischief, and the map is your universe and you constantly point right at the players face and go LOLOLOLOL 0 Share this post Link to post

Grazza Posted September 6, 2014 A classic idea from awad (map09): have an IoS set-up, where instead of a Romero head, there's a voodoo doll. 0 Share this post Link to post

scifista42 Posted September 7, 2014 From the non-obnoxious maps supposed to troll the player, I think this one does it rather well: Whispers of STARTAN 0 Share this post Link to post
Cynical Posted September 7, 2014 The best example ever of this is right at the start of Mock 2, with the "fake-fake-3D-bridge". First time I saw that, I laughed my ass off. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted September 7, 2014 One time, I was blasting through "Tricks and Traps" and none of that shit even tricked or trapped me. John Romero had logged into my game as a spectator, and he kept saying shit like, "THIS will TRICK YOU!" and "TRAPPED you NOW!" and kept trying to get me to do shit that was not in my best interests. 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted September 7, 2014 it's finished! https://www.mediafire.com/?obt0opcdbjtp61t title is in the filename, if this goes good., map is MAP01, boom is the name of the game, it have also a pair of two silly new textures. 0 Share this post Link to post
scifista42 Posted September 8, 2014 walter confalonieri said:it's finished! https://www.mediafire.com/?obt0opcdbjtp61tNice. My favourite part was the 32-units wide descending hole before the exit which you can't pass through (until you do something). My least favourite part was the voodoo doll telefrag. Is it possible to legitimately jump out of the windows without jumping or cheating? 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted September 8, 2014 thanks, and yes, there's a way to get out the starting area without cheating... Spoiler push the rigth panel in the north section of the main room after the entrance, it will activate a lift on the windows 0 Share this post Link to post

gggmork Posted September 11, 2014 Looking forward to playing that Walter (and the other recommendations). I'll probably make my own before looking at any others so I'll have a clean slate without being influenced (but I did already see the winner of the 'crappy map contest' which was great). 0 Share this post Link to post

pcorf Posted September 11, 2014 A marked blue key door that requires a red or yellow key for example. A room with many switches, only 1 switch is correct, all the other switches set off nasty traps (twzone MAP23) Upside down map, for example sky on the floor, crates hanging from the ceiling, or liquids on the ceiling. 0 Share this post Link to post

And there is this comment in idgames which I clearly did not write. But found it funny. The real PCORF writes with upper case at the start of his sentences. "this is one of those rare cases when the sequel (or a tribute, in this case) is better than the original. i'm so awed that the only thing i can say is 'i wish i could map as good as iluvpuppies'... -pcorf" 0 Share this post Link to post
gggmork Posted September 13, 2014 I just fda-inated walter's (fixed version) map anyway even though I never started my own (I think I'd want to do zdoom w/ acs scripting but now might just put that off for a long time or never do it.. I'd probably rather tinker with wad binary files with python instead of do that). First attempt fail, 2nd attempt looked at doombuilder for the part I couldn't figure out, 3rd attempt, did that again: http://speedy.sh/YcKKj/trollnightcore-1-fda-cl9-ggg.zip It was fun and successfully trolled me (by the way I have no soundcard no so couldn't hear sounds). also lol @ voodoo doll instead of romero head for icon of sin. 0 Share this post Link to post
