It would be cool to actually do the whole Doom 2 instead of 20 levels. Maybe it could be done for the 30th anniversary of Doom 2. While still being vanilla.

Im just saying that because im excited for this project. 1 Share this post Link to post
Clippy Posted May 29, 2021 hey guys hey You know, this project is pretty cool. Remember when I played some of your maps and put them on the youtube? Well a guy who hangs out in my comments, Stavi Vanackerson, felt inspired to make a map from memory. It's interesting that this project caused this motivation - I don't think he's even on doomworld But here is video anyway Just thought I would share - I think it's great how this project reached out in such a way 3 Share this post Link to post

Thanks! 😊 I’m continuing to map on E1. Currently on-off working on E1M3. Will take some time but eventually there will be a „Knee Deep Again“ release. That’s the plan. 😎 2 Share this post Link to post

Captain Toenail Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) Here is my vision of E1M5, Phobos Lab. Phobos Lab is the first level in the original game with teleporters. I imagine that the Phobos Lab is where the initial teleportation experiments happened on Phobos (aside from the Anomaly itself) so I wanted to highlight that with giant machinery, room-sized computers and prototype teleportation pads. The wad should run under vanilla limits in Chocolate Doom, but was also tested with PrBoom+. I wanted to keep that classic Doom feel and keeping it under the original limits helped with that. Let me know what you think :-) Screenshots Spoiler Download: https://www.mediafire.com/file/zju7psw3ejj3tgj/CT_Phobos_Lab_v2.zip/file Edited June 7, 2021 by Captain Toenail : updated link 9 Share this post Link to post

I think I noticed some Doom 3 and Halfe-Life influences nicely implemented in vanilla. ;-) Big rooms with machinery and all surrounded by offices. Nice techbase! 14 hours ago, Captain Toenail said: Let me know what you think :-) Nicely done, intricate layout. Progression seems a bit complex. Cacos and Lost Souls are the perfect enemy for the big tech caverns - yet they don't appear in the original. I know, in the end it's gameplay tradeoff... Good map! 3 Share this post Link to post

Captain Toenail Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) @sectrslayr Thank you for the glowing review, glad you enjoyed it! @Clippy Thanks for taking the time to record and play the map, appreciate it. Looks like you got a little lost! You actually got 8/9 secrets - the map powerup secret failed to trigger - I will need to fix that. After viewing I realised I forgot to place explosive barrels in the map and deathmatch starts. Also I will get rid of that blinking effect to the north because honestly it was making me feel a bit queasy myself. Quick fixes expect a new download later today. Again, thanks for playing. can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with. 3 Share this post Link to post

My complain is, sometime I have lost when searching the red key, because I so stupid not to realize there's a switch behing the table that lowers it, still pretty good for the most part. 1 Share this post Link to post
Captain Toenail Posted June 7, 2021 @lokbustam257 Thanks for the feedback - based on this I have made some of the buttons more noticeable. Here is the updated version. Changes: Spoiler Made some essential buttons more obvious Removed blinking sector lights in northern area Computer map column is wider so secret sector is triggered Added explosive barrels Added deathmatch starts Small texture tweaks Small item position tweaks Download: https://www.mediafire.com/file/zju7psw3ejj3tgj/CT_Phobos_Lab_v2.zip/file 2 Share this post Link to post
The Kingslayer Posted June 8, 2021 I'm remaking my levels with a focus on limit-removing features. (I think that's allowed now, if I read correctly.) E3M3 is going for more of a fleshy techno-hell theme, and E4M5 is more of a floating fire-and-brimstone hell temple sort of deal. I'll update with screenshots when they're ready! I'm excited for these two levels. 0 Share this post Link to post

I love limit-breaking stuff, but it's also fun what people can do with the restrictions. I'm actually working on a vanilla compatible megaWAD as a side project. There's something charming about how abstract and chunky things look. 0 Share this post Link to post
