Good work mate, but i think you should add some info, like iwad (i assume its doom.wad) sourceports suggest, some screenshots...

So this is literally E1M1 from ID software themselves but the enemies were replaced with D2 enemies.

 

The title of the post is quite possibly the biggest lie ever. :l

Like you're not supposed to post unmodified id resources

Yeah... isn't this "technically" illegal?

Technically no, since this is actually a modified version of E1M1. The /idgames database just doesn't accept modified IWAD levels because they are guaranteed to be a total waste of time for everyone involved.

@alyxnoob81 It's all fine and good if you want to mess around with IWAD levels, but for those of us who have played the IWADS a million times and then another million tribute levels and then another million levels that aren't tribute exactly but are "in the style" of IWAD levels... this is just boring.

I'd rather play an original map that's of lesser quality than the IWADs.

i agree that you probably shouldn't post edits to the original maps - but i will say that i encourage you to make more for yourself (not for upload) so you can play with enemy configurations and see what does and doesn't work, what feels good, what feels bad, how uncommon formations interact, etc. this kind of thing is a great gateway to making maps from scratch if you find that too daunting to start. everybody has to start somewhere and as easy as it is to rag on the new/inexperienced person, i'd hate to see a potentially excellent mapper, designer, etc, get driven away before they even start

@alyxnoob81

 

Actually it is, since the licenses for the Doom games prohibit you from taking a resource from one game and using it another - so modified Doom 1 levels in Doom 1 are fine, but modified Doom 1 levels in Doom 2 are a no no.

 

Then again this obviously also applies to music and textures, which means hundreds of existing wads are technically illegal.

 

(PS Forgive alyxnoob81's name still being included in the quote, my tablet won't let me delete it.)

I didn't think Maps of Chaos was a waste of time...I actually really enjoyed it.
