Ever occur to you that you basically just made a Plasma Thrower, and it literally looks like you're using a visor to observe the temperature/chemicals in your weapon?

Well, I don't know about plasma, but there is definitely a lot of flame getting sent your way in that map.

The weed I smoked today must've been really good to miss that.

@Remilia Scarlet and you keep posting Doom3 screenshots, insisting that they are from idTech1. shame on you!

I can't help but wonder if the OP still checks in on this thread.

The last time OP was online was in November 2018. So probably not.

I think he may have been banned, so there's a possibility he might be lurking here.

The last words on his profile were something like "Doomworld is lame" so I guess he won't come back... I have to admit I was wondering about the same thing yesterday as well... it makes me wonder what happened to him...

it continues to grow

Very hard to tell. From a cursory glance, not at all though.

 

The busy-ness of a layout is often defined not only by the layout itself but the way it plays based on thing placement. If you keep the combat relatively simple or slow, the player will feel more time to orient themselves and combat any complexity the layout offers, but if you're dropped in the middle of this with combat from all directions, the player will likely get overwhelmed and initially lost while they deal with what's thrown at them.

so if it's densely packed with monsters, then that's not a good thing?

heck ):

Looks fine. I'm particularly intrigued by the long hallways, that's not really a common feature these days (at least not that I've noticed). The look of the whole thing is reminiscent of some of the original e1/e2 areas.

i'm a huge fan of e1, so that's probably why lol

Yep! Thanks, will do.

That's not what I was saying - Complexity does not inherently mean bad. Sometimes it makes for a great gameplay experience when the player doesn't have an opportunity to orient themselves and need to rely on raw skill instead. Some mappers make extensive use of this concept, such as antares031 and Skillsaw.

Hey! I'm a a newbie mapper, this is my first post and my first WAD, learning as I go along. I settled on 5 levels for this set, and currently working on the last one. When I finish it I'll do a polish pass on the whole set, and then try to get some people to play them and give me feedback :)

I'm kinda bad at taking screenshots but these are the layouts. Just started on the last one which is why it's kinda empty, though my maps seem to be relatively empty in general - I probably need to get a better feel for populating them with monsters.

These look good, at least when viewed from above like this ;) Look forward to being able to play them.

Welcome aboard btw

Less than 2 days into a new map and I've already broken my promise to myself to get the complete layout for the level established before I start messing around detailing individual rooms. Whoops.

What can I say, it helps me realise the finished thing as I'm working on it, I guess.
