Yugiboy85 Posted April 13, 2018 (edited) CRIMSON WOOD Crimson wood is a map I previously did for the dwmp 16 but, since I sent it at the last minute, I could not polish it any further so, it was left in the project with a few bugs here and there. This version is, as you guessed it, a more polished version of the map (with a few new areas just for the occasion ^^) and as such, it includes stuff like: -Difficulty settings -A few "new" textures but overall, most textures are the base doom 2 textures -The sky was kept as is as it seems that people liked it alot haha (it is an edited version of one of the skies found in the "plums skystravaganza" pack) -New music ("Acidcity" by Jimmy) as well, d_opening was quite silent heh -Sprite edits (minor things tbh) -Most of the bugs found in the dwmp16 version have been taken care of (I guess there may be the occasional slime trail here and there but, I don't think it's game breaking) So yeah, I know it's a little lazy to technically re-release I map but, I always wanted to make a more polished version of the map I made for said project. It has been sitting on my harddrive for god knows how long and, I just wanted to get it over with haha I also know I said I would make this a small mappack but, TBH, I don't have as much time as I used to so yeah, a single map it will be haha Hopefully you will find some enjoyment in playing this map (or replaying). I had fun tweaking it a little and I think it came out pretty nicely in the end. Next map I release will hopefully be travmoon 2 (it is my main focus right now) but in the meantime, here you go ;)https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/levels/doom2/Ports/a-c/crimsowd >>> Idgames https://www.dropbox.com/s/g1epxqsndgg3ozy/CRIMSOWD.zip?dl=1 >>> Temporary idgames version (pending aproval as of right now) https://www.dropbox.com/s/gjnlgdrukmeu5o7/CRIMSOWD.wad?dl=1 This is an RC1 I guess but, I think (unless some gamebreaking bugs are discovered) that it will pretty much be the final version.

SP_FACE1 Posted April 13, 2018 Great map! I think I got stuck somewhere, couldn't figure out how the red and yellow bars opened? Otherwise it had a nice flow, the map pushed you to the right place at the right times. Loved the style and use of textures even though it's not my favorite theme. Couldn't figure out all the secrets on the first run so have to play again. The fights were well thought out, had to use a little bit of brain to survive them. (I'll put this on my coop list, I hope it has at least coop starts... didn't check :) 14 hours ago, Yugiboy85 said: Next map I release will hopefully be travmoon 2 (it is my main focus right now) but in the meantime, here you go ;) Sweet!

Merry Widow Posted April 14, 2018 Very good map. I enjoyed all of it. A bit harder than what I'm used to, but it was so much fun. Didn't mind when I died a few times. Played on hmp. :D I'm not that good a player anyway. 1 Share this post Link to post
Yugiboy85 Posted April 14, 2018 @grouchbag Yes, it has coop starts and, a few teleporters to prevent getting locked out of some arenas but, it wasn't tested alot in coop. Anyways, thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it :) 9 hours ago, GarrettChan said: Will play soon after my things are done. Please take your time, there is no rush. As I said before, this map isn't technically a new map of mine anyways ;) 1 Share this post Link to post
guineu Posted April 14, 2018 (edited) Nice map. Seeing the starting area I was worried it would be one of those confusing layouts but in the end I didn't have any problems getting lost. Here's a recording of my casual blind playthrough, after dying once I add a 'death counter' just for the giggles: Edit: Playing on HMP. 4 Share this post Link to post
Yugiboy85 Posted April 15, 2018 Just got done watching your video, nicely played man. And wow, I didn't expect a full on video of the map haha, that was a neat surprise :) Glad you enjoyed it and, glad that you died a few times too :D 0 Share this post Link to post
