My main aim was to improve the visual contrast of the scene, as I felt it was a bit too flat looking. To do that, I added a layer of dark concrete on the building middle floors to contrast the lighter grays the are more widespread above and below, I added in some green and brown earthy tones (in the grass and in the outer wall structures), and most noticeably swapped the sky to an overcast nighttime blue. I've surrounded the map with buildings to set the scene a bit more. Some doodads on the ground and some smooth gradient lighting rounds it out, I'm very happy with it now. This looks excellent, don't think I've seen anything like it in Doom before either. Interesting vertical playspace as well -- there's a level in an old shooter called No-one Lives Forever set on a construction yard that was pretty good because of this inherent vertical nature. Are you just experimenting or is this part of an upcoming project? 2 Share this post Link to post

Are you just experimenting or is this part of an upcoming project? Thanks. Right now it is just a loose pile of week-old wads on my drive. Figuring out how much I want to do, and how to compile everything into a releasable project is a problem for later, but I do hope to release this as part of a larger project at some point. 4 Share this post Link to post
exl Posted December 29, 2018 Straight from the editor, looks kind of gloomy and weird with all the vertex anchors. 26 Share this post Link to post

In addition to The Alfonzone, you could try Fall of Society, a shorter set that has some cool ZDoomy city maps in a similar vein as Alfonzone. The shot skillsaw posted reminds me a lot of a construction zone in the last map, in fact. 0 Share this post Link to post

I am opposite, I try to make hellish or medieval themed things and they always somehow evolve into techbase... 0 Share this post Link to post
Rayziik Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) The largest map I think I've ever made, Emerald Machine. Dragged out over the last year due to my work schedule, however, progress is progress in the long run. Nearly 20,000 linedefs make up this green behemoth, and over 500 monsters reside here ready to ruin your fun. More screenshots in Spoiler...

Danlex Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) I started working on this wad some time ago, but now, I don't feel motivated enough to keep building it and I don't think someone would like to continue it for me. So, I think this will never be finished. Edited February 14, 2019 by DanielAlexander 40 Share this post Link to post

I would offer to finish it for you but I'm still learning and that looks beyond my skill level. 1 Share this post Link to post
Tango Posted December 30, 2018 @Rayziik you've no idea how glad I am to see you posting shots :D been really pumped for your megawad for a while @DanielAlexander that looks absolutely incredible, holy shit. I love it. I bet you someone would like to continue it for you though if you're not motivated to keep it going, though! worst case, you post it and nobody bites, but having it out there is much better than it not being in the world at all! 7 Share this post Link to post
