schmerr Posted May 13, 2011 This is my new wad, Operation Terrafaux. It's 3 levels plus a "Demo" level from my next wad. here are some screenshots from the first level (not finished, as you can see from the blue key wall) http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171621.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171545.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171535.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171531.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171502.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171400.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171329.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171251.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171131.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171056.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_171046.png http://i851.photobucket.com/albums/ab80/schmerr/Screenshot_Doom_20110513_170935.png 0 Share this post Link to post
Megamur Posted May 13, 2011 Looks kinda old-school, but without going the route of yet another E1 remake. I'm in. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
phobosdeimos1 Posted May 13, 2011 I'm liking this man, It does look refreshingly like something that would be a hoot to play, I like the last shot especially, hurry and finish it, :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Megamur Posted May 14, 2011 I assume this will be a ZDoom set, since you're using flats as textures? 0 Share this post Link to post

jerrysheppy Posted May 14, 2011 Don't take this the wrong way, since I believe everyone should make whatever sorts of maps they want to, but it does seem like polishing up alignments, and positioning windows so they look nice with the textures, would put the shine on a nice clean old-school style. The fifth screenshot is a particularly egregious offender here. And there are some rooms that seem too underdetailed because they're big enough that big expanses of a single texture on walls/floor begins to look ugly even in an old-school style. If I were you I might think about adding some computer banks or other visual hook to e.g. the third screenshot. Lest I seem to be overly critical, I want to say that a lot of the rest of the shots do look really nice in that simplistic sort of way, like the stairway with the torches, the shot with the ceiling lights, and the seventh and eighth screenshots which in my opinion have almost exactly the right amount of detail along with some neat texture usage and wall angles. Good on you for getting a mapset out at all! Look forward to seeing the release. 0 Share this post Link to post

Well, either way, this doesn't look vanilla-compatible and I hope schmerr will let us know what port(s) this is for. I hate when people just throw out a map and make you guess what engine will run it. 0 Share this post Link to post
