Roby Lla Posted March 28, 2020 I am making a wad and I need maps for it.You can use only Doom 2 Hexen Format with ACS Doom Scripts enabled.Please use only the textures included in my wad. Here is the link to download the wad that contains the textures:https://drive.google.com/open?id=11F8qIDd5n74MZN_IMWhOOI4WywFjWEEk 0 Share this post Link to post
Dragonfly Posted March 28, 2020 I don't understand what you're asking? You just want people to give you maps with absolutely no context to what it's going towards? The supplied wad is a poorly organised mess of randomly ripped textures which won't be cohesive with one another, and mp3 audio. All of which is contained with no credits as to who made these assets or where you got them from. If you want people to contribute to your project you'll need to make a much more compelling post than this, which gives an informative & comprehensive run down of what the project is, why people should spend their time on your ideas instead of working on their own projects, etc. 19 Share this post Link to post

Dragonfly Posted March 28, 2020 To be honest that was probably the least important takeaway from my message. Your project has absolutely no context, nobody will understand what it is you're looking for and as such don't have the necessary information to provide maps which fit your vision, whatever that is. 1 Share this post Link to post

TheNoob_Gamer Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) Sounds like you (almost) want to make a community project. Have a look at my thread for some good examples of how to make posts like these. Good luck with your vague post, otherwise. 2 Share this post Link to post
Major Arlene Posted March 28, 2020 So if it's a GZDoom project, why are you limiting to Doom in Hexen format? that's a surefire way of making it way harder to make maps that fit the vision. UDMF format isn't that scary, fam. I'd suggest putting out a demo map to demonstrate what you want out of the mappers that will want to possibly map for this. 4 Share this post Link to post
Roby Lla Posted March 28, 2020 I don't make maps only because I suck at making them.I am only a good doom player and I wanted to make a game like dusk but free and inthe doom engine 0 Share this post Link to post
Dragonfly Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) You'd be better spent honing your own set of mapping skills like the rest of us instead of hoping others will do the work for you. Every single person here 'sucked at making maps' when they started up. Buckle in and join the grind. 10 Share this post Link to post

Major Arlene Posted March 28, 2020 Just now, Roby Lla said: Well It's not that I cannot make them.I can in fact.I don't believe in myself thats all. then that's a different problem. if you need help that's what this forum and the tons upon tons of discord servers regarding doom are for. but it's downright lazy to just expect people to make maps for you, and you're doing yourself a disservice. sit down, buckle up, get into the editor and get some lines down, don't expect it to be a masterpiece. rinse and repeat. 0 Share this post Link to post

Sorry if this all comes across as harsh, but maybe if I put it into a metaphor for you, you'd understand better. You need to learn to walk before you can run - here however you're not even trying to run, you're trying to place for gold medal in the 100m sprint at the Olympics. Slow down, learn the basics. 11 Share this post Link to post
Roby Lla Posted March 28, 2020 Thanks,I am like this because when I started making doom maps and post them some users started insulting me. 0 Share this post Link to post

Dragonfly Posted March 28, 2020 I went through exactly the same experience - I even wrote a blog-styled article to try and help people in your stage of mapping, perhaps this could help. https://www.dfdoom.com/staying-motivated-as-a-doom-mapper/ 6 Share this post Link to post
leodoom85 Posted March 28, 2020 First of all, gather some experience in terms of maps to actually show what you can do. Second of all, gather some guts to start believing that YOU can do it instead of spitting vague conditions in order to get help. Third of all, better continue learning english as hard as you can. It'll come in handy, believe me... And most importantly, fourth of all, people here can help you for sure. They don't bite. As long as you don't go harsh (and get a returning harsh opinion), you'll be fine. 2 Share this post Link to post
Guardsoul Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) I would recommend first getting the basics in Vanilla and Boom format rather than jumping directly into UDMF, which can be overwhelming for new mappers. There are plenty of tutorials all over YouTube explaining all you need to know. 0 Share this post Link to post
