notjimmyboigreez Posted April 19, 2018 great video, I'm actually sat here with a DS9 poster and Tuvok poster wedged either side of a ultimate doom poster. 2 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted April 19, 2018 ^This is a man with good taste! I appreciate all the further comments folks. DCK looks interesting from that screenshot, maybe I'll put my other stuff on the backburner and get to work on part 2 sooner rather than later. Cheers my friends. 3 Share this post Link to post

Xyzzу Posted April 19, 2018 Are you making another video? If so, I would love to see SLADE's map editor in it! 2 Share this post Link to post
geo Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) Worf... Mugging for the camera. Someone tell that damn extra in the background to stop looking at the camera! 0 Share this post Link to post

Revae Posted April 20, 2018 I used to use WADED in the 90's... It was okay. Doombuilder is leagues better though. About 2 years ago I made a map in EDMAP on dosbox on my phone during breaks at a shitty job I had for a while. I should see if I can find it... It was a pain, but playable. 0 Share this post Link to post

I'm rather impressed that you could make a map on your phone, EDMAP or not. I would be interested to see what people would say about it with that backstory. 1 Share this post Link to post
Revae Posted April 20, 2018 I could only find an older version that lacked monsters, and had a few bugs (mis-keyed doors that made it unfinishable and such). I patched it up, and put the monsters back in on my computer (i didn't remember the exact location or types, so...). It used to be possible to get outside in one area, and a lot of the doors didn't look so stupid. Dunno where that version got to. Anyway. This is it: http://www.mediafire.com/file/r025go2z58tdap5/TEST10.WAD Expect a lot of STARTAN and unaligned textures and such, and maybe not much fun. 0 Share this post Link to post
Camahueto Posted April 20, 2018 Nice video, but i still wanna see someone trying to make a map using the methods before the days of editors. I'm really curious of how hard could it be. 0 Share this post Link to post

Hm, how touchscreen friendly would you say edmap is? I was think about downloading dosbox and DETH on my tablet and phone though they areretty cheap so I suspect they wouldn't run very well, it is worth a try though since that one Android map editor project fell through a looong time ago lol 0 Share this post Link to post

You probably (maybe) could pull it off, but I'm not sure dosbox has enough on-screen buttons available. My phone had physical buttons to assist. If you have a bluetooth keyboard or mouse or some-such, it'll run just fine at least. But it's a nightmare for a phone otherwise. That map, as "1996_my_first_wad.wad" as it is, was the culmination of hours across days (across months) of fumbling with mispressed buttons, corrupted saves, and circuitous work flow. 0 Share this post Link to post
Endless Posted April 20, 2018 Nice job, I myself give up with modern Wad builders, just cause I dont have the patience or self-esteem to finish something like that. Yet I just love the work that better people do in this. 0 Share this post Link to post
PeterMoro Posted April 20, 2018 Just watched it. Cool video. I remember trying to make a Doom wad on my friend's PC back in 2004, but the program (can't remember which one) was too confusing and i just couldn't do it : ( 0 Share this post Link to post

I'm really curious of how hard could it be. Do you mean, the days before non-id folks started writing editing programs, i.e., DoomEd? Or do you mean the methods that were used to make levels like ORIGWAD.WAD and CROSS.WAD, namely working in hex editors and/or writing C++ programs to generate the data structures necessary to make the levels, including building BSP trees by hand? 0 Share this post Link to post
