DOOM Anomaly Posted October 14, 2002 Enjay said:Hmmm, sounds like I got Enjay Toss off (beginning to regret that name) about right for what I wanted then. It was really just something to while away and afternoon, and to see what I could do in a limited time, but not as tight as a speed mapping situation. FYI, I basically did it using some of the methods I would use for a speed map (but on a bigger scale): I drew the whole thing in DeePsea without playtesting, keeping in mind an E1M7 layout, but making it as I wanted. I lost the scale for a while and started making huge areas. I realised this and re did them. Then I used prefabs and sector copying to make the doors and alcoves that link the various sections together. It took about 4-5 hours to get the layout of the map. Then I played it. It seemed to work, so then I textured it. DeePsea allows you to search for any textures on any walls or (flats on) floors, so I changed everything manually and then searched for any textures that were still showing the original defaults - ensuring that I had changed everything. Then I set the light levels to 0 throughout the map and did the lighting. I did that because I thought sectors with 0 light would be easy to spot as untouched. Of course, I missed the 2 windows that face you when you open the first door. Doh! Then I populated the level, added a few extra sectors for traps and for monsters to teleport in from. Finally I knocked the sky together from the Ep1 and Ep4 skies, exported the D_E1M7 music and bundled the whole lot up together. Lack of detail and mistakes will be due to the fact that I turned 38 about 3 weeks ago. :-) Well dont feel to badly about it, it was a very good level, something like that would take me a couple of months, I cant make one friggin sector without there being a "sector not closed!" message appearing, or a hom, or Something going wrong, I've spent over 2 months on my wad and I only have 5 1/2 lvls done, and my god, talk about your pieces of crap...Im even disliking it...it sux Big time, not to mention repeat of room shapes. Now, Enjay's tossoff and that 8-bit sound together, Dam thats one fine wad ;D 0 Share this post Link to post
The Ultimate DooMer Posted October 14, 2002 DooMBoy said:I have just one question: what's going to happen with /newstuff 100? AFAIK, I'll be doing the reviews, both of SlayeR's recent maps are in there, and hopefully Epyo's next wad will be there, too. In other words, not many wads so far.... Unless we all made a little map specially for newstuff #100, just to mark the occasion..... 0 Share this post Link to post

Hyena Posted October 14, 2002 Hi, everyone. I noticed a lot of people commenting on my "25 years" remark. Please note that this is an exaggeration. I didn't literally mean nobody over 25 made good maps. And as for Blind Alley's detail, I said pretty damn good for a first release. If you saw my first release your heart would seize, leap out of your throat and land on your eyes to cover them from the horror. 0 Share this post Link to post

ReX Posted October 15, 2002 Hyena said:I've never met anyone over the age of 25 who actually plays doom, let alone makes half-way decent maps for it.Ahem. I've released 37 maps, at least one of which is half-way decent. I've completed four more, and will release them once I complete the fifth in the wad pack. EDIT: Make that 38 released maps. The last release just became available from newstuff. 0 Share this post Link to post

I read your original post as well as your explanation. I was just jumping on the "old farts gang up against Hyena" bandwagon. IOW, no criticism intended -- just a bit of harmless fun at your expense. Of course, now everyone knows I'm older than 25. I wonder if that's a good thing or a bad thing ;) Well-written reviews, btw. 0 Share this post Link to post
