You're not stupid...Shotguns are stupid.

Yeah its woefully underpowered for how big of a map myhouse is, if you want to try and force it to work see if resetting to default options changes anything maybe see if you can optimize it in rendering options but honestly I'm amazed you even launched Myhouse

Hello, dad. I'm in jail!

Yeah I'm surprised other wads run fine on that computer, I could never get GZDoom to run smoothly on my old laptop which was significantly better than OP's.

Really cool map! I heard that the player is shorter in the .wad version than in the pk3 version so I'm wondering, is there anything interesting in the luggage conveyor belt in the airport?

the wad version is a "normal" Doom mod, so the height change isn't in effect, but the wad version also doesn't include the airport in the first place so it's a moot point

Hi, I just want to share my thoughts:

I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet. I'm new to the Doom Community.
 

  Reveal hidden contents

However, I believe there's a third person.

That's all I'm here to say for now...
I just hope the discussion continues.

⩇⩇:⩇⩇ - I'm thinking midnight.

I'm not entirely sure if we're thinking the same thing, but I had a similar thought while reading the journal and posted about it much earlier in the thread.  basically, my take-away was that throughout most of the journal, the author doesn't refer to Thomas by name, just as "my childhood friend," but then after Valentine's Day, the tone suddenly changes, Thomas is referred to by name and said to be the only person the author's ever loved, rather than just a friend.  between that and certain timeline discrepancies, I thought maybe the journal was strongly implying Steven and the author might be different people, but if that was the case, it doesn't seem to have any real significance.

thinking it over now, I think it might be implying something else.  many people have pointed out the implications of the pills and the bathroom that Thomas could be trans, and the S+A thing, suggesting A might be a different name Thomas went by, that these are reflections of different aspects of Thomas's life, things some people knew about him and others didn't.  we're never given a definitive answer as to what A stands for, if Thomas is in fact trans, or if A and Thomas are intended to be the same person, but having a definitive answer isn't the point; how you interpret it, what you personally take from the wad, that's all part of the experience.  similarly, Steven not referring to Thomas by name and only calling him a friend at the beginning of the journal and then suddenly changing his narrative at the end could also be different reflections of Steven's life, things some people knew and others didn't.  I think that's something anyone could relate to, even if they're not LGBT, what you know about yourself vs what people think they know about you, things you've never told anyone except those you trust most, and maybe not even them.

recently i play this wad with  Skelegant's Guts ripper (a weapon mod that's replace chainsaw with sword from manga "berserk") and it's kinda fun not until you kill the creepy dog

[Chuma]

Hey guys, i'm Chuma i'm a Quake mapper and small indie gamedev (focused on QA for now) i was raised playing Doom and Quake, recently i've got an interest on speedrunning.

Not sure where to leave my observations but:

 

- Considering there is a new category with the lawnmower (HELL YEAH I HAVE THE POWER OF GOD), What's the possibility to add a category where you go to underhalls, pick the SSG and finish Myhouse normally?.

 

- Second category : Adding a way to break IDFA and letting the player have all weapons (this to see how much time saves can be done with early BFGs or rocket "slides" and such.

 

Regardless i'm fascinated with this map and this is my first post in Doomworld since knowing this page has been active 1998 (i think i first visited around 2000s , when i was 5).

 

Best wishes to all and to the map creator, thank you for this amazing map!

So its YOU that keeps burning my house down, fml. I need to make another attempt on the wad today, theres only so far I can get before my nerves fray too much.

 

Spoiler

Also, wouldn't it be hilarious if there was a 33PAM: yarteB?

 

[fofolete]

So... It's not really working for me, for some reason. The Supercharge sphere won't show up on the window, and so i can't progress on the level, neither i can open up the crate on the garage to get the chainsaw, for some reason. There's something wrong here, but i don't know what is it.

Yes, i am using GZdoom and it's up to date. Could anyone help?

You using the .pk3 file? The .wad is just the base house with no extra features.

Alrighty, it worked! Thanks :-)

I don't really know how this kind of stuff works

[Razumen]

Spoiler

Got all the artifacts except for the pills, and then realized I messed up the order and couldn't go back to the airport to get them. Decided to cheat to get to the mirror gas station, but still worth it, though the end fight felt a bit like a slog.

This map will be my goto to reference when people dismiss things like portals as gimmicky. The amount of creativity here is really something else.

Okay, great map, really cool to see a Doom map get so much praise and attention from outside the Doom community, but I noticed something while looking at the .pk3 in SLADE. In the Credits, certain letters are capitalized, does anyone know what "SELESTNOAJYIKHYMMU" means? That's all of the capitalized letters written out. Sorry if this is old information.

It is old information, it's an anagram that when unmangled yields the words "ESSEL, JIMMY, THANK YOU" as credit to the composers.

Ah, that makes sense. Odd that it was hidden and they weren't just credited under "sound help" or something vague like that, but I do respect keeping up the Kayfabe.

Can I play this mod Coop?

[orbittwz]

managed to get My House running with PB and probably with BD...

commenting the gameinfo events in the MAPINFO file seems to be the answer.
now, what else I'm missing if playing like this?? it's there new music or sounds??
I didn't heard when loading the pk3 normally.

EDIT: using doom complete with wadsmoosh btw, maybe this mod doesn't work with it?
EDIT2: OK it's not the case, just tried with Doom 2 IWAD and same standard music, what gives?
EDIT3: I just needed to play to see it's working fine with either mods, cool (and shit me scary oof)

[Opsalugo]

This wad is what convinced me to go to a bookstore and pick up a copy of House of Leaves, by the way. It had always been somewhere in the back of my mind. Night Mind made videos about House of Leaves 4 years ago now, and I started watching the first one, only to stop because it sounded interesting enough to not want to spoil for myself. Despite that though, I didn't seek it out. I either forgot, as I often do, or just didn't get off my ass to do it, as I often don't. But MyHouse enthralled me. I HAD to know it's inspiration. I NEEDED more like it. And it's lead me to an amazing work of fiction, an absolute beast of a book that I continually find myself getting lost in. I'm still only about halfway through, but thank you Veddge, not only for creating MyHouse, but for laying the red carpet at my feet leading me directly to where I could find more like it. As a fan of weird and unique media, it can often be hard to find similar pieces to sate my cravings after consuming something truly enchanting. Because well, they're weird, and unique tends to mean unique. 

 

The most mysterious song on the internet is a banger, too. You've got good taste. I'm awfully fond of liminal spaces myself, although often as a form of comfort, places I'd like to be. I know most people view them more through a creepy lens, so it'd be a bit aggrandizing for me to say you twisted them brilliantly into horror, but you DID twist them brilliantly into something new, weaving a silent narrative through familiar vistas, all connected by doom modding trends. And love letters to a community, even one I don't find myself to be involved in, are something I adore as well. Seeing a culmination of the love for a long standing community, filled with little touches to reference it genuinely fill my heart with joy. I can't express enough how this caters to everything I adore.

as others in the thread have previously stated, the wad isn't gonna work very well if you use any gameplay mods. there's loads of new sounds, enemies, and it even overrides the weapons at one point. i'd rather not go into detail as to not spoil things any further, but just know that it's likely gonna end up being a mess if you try to play it with bd or pb.

[orbittwz]

Yeah I tried running vanilla instead just to compare the difference.

And still doesn't work.

GZDoom 4.11, Doom 2 IWAD and myhouse pk3 only

 

EDIT: seems like RUNNIN song is the original song for D2?? as the MAPINFO file states...
guess I need to actually play this to hear new sounds and music?? can someone just hint me when this happens?

EDIT2: it works! see below

Doom finally has its own equivalent to Super Mario 64's B3313

 

Outstanding WAD.
