Walter confetti Posted May 27, 2019 (edited) Are you ready to enter the void nightmares of... IDGAMES LINK IS READY TO GO! DOWNLOAD HERE! The Maplist: E3M1 - Burning Night by NeedHealth E3M2 - Mobius Flip by Lord_Z E3M3 - Aphotic Crypt by RonnieJamesDiner E3M4 - Ventòse by Roofi E3M5 - Brazen Hell by Steve D E3M6 - Severed Realm by riderr3 E3M7 - What Stares Back by pegleg E3M8 - Without Remorse by The_Slovinator E3M9 - Deja by ShadesMaster Spoiler Before we start, some rules to follow, if you don't like or you want to change some of the rules, you are free to say it: - Only up to 2 maps from one person. - Everyone is eligible, preferably newer mappers but literally anyone will do. You can even do a collab thing with another mapper, if you want! - It has to be limit-removing format, no fancy ZDoom stuff or Boom actions please. - You can provide a MIDI with your map if you do not want to use the default E3 track. - I would prefer a more classic and easier style to your maps, it doesn't necessarily have to be extremely polished/detailed to make the cut and I'd prefer not to have a slaughter map. - This time things gets a little bit different, you can use this little graphic compiled by yours truly, that includes a creepy void sky by Da Werecraft, a pitch black wall and floor for classic void usage, a new title and intermission screen. But over this pack, you can't add any new textures, sprites or sounds: - E3M6 must have a secret exit. - E3M8 ends when you kill the spider mastermind - E3M9 must be based upon your favorite IWAD map from memory, with a hellish twist in it. You can add new parts if really needed (like some places to connect rooms, etc.), just don't exaggerate... - Theme is void, so made a map that fits with the sky or any kind of map theme you want to do, techbase, hell, city, really anything you want to do! You can even mix them wildly like in pandemonium, you can start a map in hellish and then change drastically to another theme, there's no limit of what you want to do this time! - Just for don't turn this mapset into a hitscanners fest, you can always try out (if you wish) new gameplay ways over the original gameplay style like tyson map, maps with telefragging monsters, maps with puzzles and platforming... anything you want! - Not troll maps or obviously low effort garbage, whilst I'm not looking for a magnum opus I'd rather not make WOOO 4. When you release your map, give a little list that will go the final maplist at the release, like this: Title: Description: Build time: New music (if any): Tested with: unfinished E3M3 by Philnemba: https://www.doomworld.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=62490 Interested mappers / contributors: Da Werecat (sky author) leyrenley from DeviantArt (used a free stock image from this person for intermission screen usage) Author of D-1000 showelvare cd box art Roofi Steve D NeedHealth riderr3 The_Slovinator (tester and mapper) pegleg ShadesMaster Lord_Z RonnieJamesDiner Philnemba Alter Liberation Enjoy your stay and have fun, hoping this will not turn a turnover of your mapping carrier like in last year lol Edited August 5, 2021 by Walter confetti : Idgames link and prefaction slightly modified 26 Share this post Link to post

It helps that seven of the slots were filled in the Deadly Standards 2 thread before this thread was even posted. Although it still took 10 hours to find the final 2. 2 Share this post Link to post
NeedHealth Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) I wanted to slap this out before I forgot. My idea of a start to e3m1 of Standard III. The whole map is made up of brigdes suspended in a void. Edited May 28, 2019 by NeedHealth 10 Share this post Link to post
Roofi Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) A very quick work on doombuilder. I'm currently working on the theme : a desertic non-egyptian temple. It's an underground part but I will use the sky. :) 4 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted May 29, 2019 THis one looks pretty cool too! maybe change the midtexture with a midvine or a midgrate? 1 Share this post Link to post
ShadesMaster Posted May 30, 2019 A bit late to enter the roster, but if anything opens - I'm game! 1 Share this post Link to post
NeedHealth Posted May 30, 2019 Map progression so far goes shotgun, berserk(secret), chaingun(secret) and chaingun. This is the former. 7 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) STEP4 texture for emulate brick wall is a interesting choice, but it couldn't appear like a tutti-frutti feast with ports that tend to emulate vanilla doom, like chocolate doom for example? Still looks pretty cool the levels you and NeedHealth are cooking out... I wonder what the other people are doing for this... 1 Share this post Link to post
riderr3 Posted June 3, 2019 I completely missed this new thread. I'll see what I can do for this theme. Also, correct name of sky author is Da Werecat 2 Share this post Link to post
The_SloVinator Posted June 4, 2019 Alright, few questions: 1. What are these, exactly? 2. Since my map has to be based on my favorite IWAD map, do I have to copy paste the map's layout & then change things or do it from scratch? Does it have to be my favorite level strictly from episode 3 of IWAD? 1 Share this post Link to post
Reisal Posted June 4, 2019 Those look like the intermission animated lumps, assuming they're using a static image for things so they're blanking it out with null images. 2 Share this post Link to post

No, you have to do it from scratch, remaking it from memory. Here's a idea of how this concept works: 1 hour ago, The_SloVinator said: Does it have to be my favorite level strictly from episode 3 of IWAD? No, it could be from any game, actually it could be even from Doom, Doom 2, Final Doom, etc. But if you want to stay strict with only Doom, it could be from any episode. 0 Share this post Link to post

Alter Posted June 4, 2019 Just a heads up that i've started work on my map, i'll be showing off screenshots later this month but let's say I have a solid concept for it in my head. And I want to make a good first impression. 1 Share this post Link to post

Thanks. Though, do I have to use the exact textures & flats as my favorite map or I can freely play around with those? 0 Share this post Link to post

From the OP, it sounds like you need to give it a hellish twist to make it fit with the visual style of the episode. So if you pick Underhalls, it would be blood and skintek instead of the regular water and pipes. That kind of thing. 2 Share this post Link to post

The_SloVinator Posted June 6, 2019 After careful consideration & life getting in the way recently, I'll have to unfortunately step out of this project. :/ My apologies for the inconvenience. Wish you all the best. 2 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) T_T well, if that's your decision, go on. @ShadesMaster i'll give you this slot, if you are still interested in this project.... Edited June 6, 2019 by Walter confetti 0 Share this post Link to post
