sirjuddington Posted October 9, 2003 So today (being the 9th) is my 18th birthday. Hooray for me. But that isn't the point of this post. To celebrate, I've finally finished and released my Doom Redemption project. Basically it's a single Ultimate Doom episode that emulates the designs and atmospheres of the four episodes of Doom. It is also for ZDoom, so that I could use some nice mod music, which are all tracked by me. Anyway, I was going to update my site about it but Web1000 wont let me login to my ftp account. So I'll just post the link to it here: http://earth.prohosting.com/~slyrh/files/redemption.zip Anyway, download, play and enjoy. 0 Share this post Link to post

Manc Posted October 9, 2003 Happy birthday! Not too often does the public get a gift from the birthday person. I'll download this now and try it out tomorrow. 0 Share this post Link to post
5hfifty Posted October 9, 2003 Ah yes, I remember some of these levels. :D But omg: E1M3 and omg: E1M8 0 Share this post Link to post
5hfifty Posted October 9, 2003 and omg stupid things aren't working. There's a HOM at the start of E1M3 and E1M8 0 Share this post Link to post
sirjuddington Posted October 10, 2003 Hmm, I've looked and I cant find any HOMs at the start of E1M3 and E1M8... How about just links to the pics? 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted October 10, 2003 Here's the E1M3 HOM, taken with 1.17c (maybe it appears only on older engine versions, you recommended using the latest.) 0 Share this post Link to post
sirjuddington Posted October 10, 2003 Hmm, very strange. The copy I have here works perfectly (in fact thats not even a texture there, its supposed to be a window). Maybe it was corrupted somehow during upload. I'll try downloading it and see... EDIT: OK, it seems it only happens with older versions of ZDoom. I think it has to do with the nodes (later versions of ZDoom automatically rebuild nodes upon loading). But upon rebuilding the nodes and testing it in ZDoom v1.22, it still has problems. So all I can do is reccomend ZDoom 2.0.47i, which is what I use... EDIT EDIT: Whee, found the problem. Seems the lines in question were not set to 2 sided for some reason. I'm pretty sure they were before, or else I would have noticed the problem with the older versions of ZDoom. Anyway, I'll reupload a fixed version now. 0 Share this post Link to post

And Slayer, if you had used ZDBSP ^_^ the error would not have been noticed either, in any versions ;) 0 Share this post Link to post

Then again, that was ZDoomGL 0.66.2 :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Tormentor667 Posted October 10, 2003 I like it but where can I find the reference to the original doom marine? 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted October 10, 2003 If you finish E1M3 you should notice it... 0 Share this post Link to post
Grimm Posted October 10, 2003 Heh we have the same birthday SlayeR. Righto, me downloads. :P 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMBoy Posted October 11, 2003 Hmmm....it's not so bad, I rather like it actually. However, there are still the glaring HOM errors in E1M3 and E1M8, heh. :( 0 Share this post Link to post
sirjuddington Posted October 11, 2003 Ok, fixed the HOMs and reuploaded. Same address. 0 Share this post Link to post

NiGHTMARE Posted October 11, 2003 It's already been explained that the HOM will appear regardless of the ZDoom version you're using. Plus SlayeR kindly provided a link to the fixed version a few posts ago. 0 Share this post Link to post
sargebaldy Posted October 13, 2003 great wad. my only complaints are a couple y-misalignments in e1m7, the misspelling of the word 'relief' in the final message, that it requires zdoom despite using very few zdoom features, and the fact that the cyberdemon that replaces a baron in e1m2 for coop can never hit you because of all the posts nearby :P i think i played most of this back in january or something though actually :P anyway, a job well done :) 0 Share this post Link to post

sargebaldy Posted October 14, 2003 i just uh.. got in the line of fire on purpose for more of a challenge :P 0 Share this post Link to post
sirjuddington Posted October 14, 2003 Heh, come to think of it I meant to add more enemies in for Co-Op. All I got around to adding was that Cyberdemon (and thats only because originally it was there in UV, which was a stupid idea :P) 0 Share this post Link to post

ellmo Posted October 19, 2003 Mhhm... I got Impressed by Redemption and 2002 odyssey. I just switched my current project from Doom 2 to the Ultimate Doom, since I've decided I won't be using D2 things anyways... I'll release the first episode soon... 0 Share this post Link to post
