yes can you make the second map (E1M2) and the secret map (E1M9) please? when it's done send me the WAD's ok? i'll write the mapinfo so don't need to make the mapinfo lump

[tsocheff]

sure i can do the second level, are there custom textures you want me to use or any other requests you want?

ok here you go: Laboratory.zip

that's the first level that i'm already done with

the whole megawad is going to be techbase cuz i'm lazy as f*ck

[tsocheff]

if this is your first level its pretty decent, better than my first level. and im gonna assume you want an e1 type theme. also if you want custom music i could show you.

Why aren't you trying to learn to map yourself?

this is literally my first megawad and i read that people strongly discourage making your first megawad by yourself

also i kinda already made 2 maps for doom, one being my first map and the second one being the remake witch is a LOT better than the original

I think what they mean by that is... If you are a beginner, you should gain experience and practice through smaller projects, before trying a big project like a megawad or big mapset.

True. What i mean by it is to study mapping and make your first levels, before going onto a episode or a megawad. Megawads often are a collection of works or almost a complete game by itself. They aren't for the faint of heart.
