Job Posted January 30, 2004 I've been working on this level on and off for a while, about a month. It started as a Doom2 vanilla level, but I converted it to a ZDoom level for some extra features. :) Hopefully I'll have most of it completed by the end of the weekend, so it'll be ready for the following /newstuff. Here's some pics. (By the way, sorry if the pics are a bit too large) http://server5.uploadit.org/files/Saviormike-DOOM0011.JPG http://server5.uploadit.org/files/Saviormike-DOOM0005.JPG http://server5.uploadit.org/files/Saviormike-DOOM0004.jpg http://server5.uploadit.org/files/Saviormike-DOOM0002.JPG Edit by Cyb: Hello?!

EarthQuake Posted January 30, 2004 Why is everyone set on brightening everything up? If someone makes a dark map, then the first response is "OMG I CANT SEE ANYTHING!?!!1" You know some levels are supposed to be dark and even appear darker than the normally would be. There are also other factors contributing to the darkness, like white space around the image, or your shitty monitor settings. The screens look good IMO, although I'd like to see something new. 0 Share this post Link to post

This level in particular was designed to bring back the atmospher that I loved so well in the PSX Final Doom and Doom. So, I hope you guys like that stuff. 0 Share this post Link to post

ShadowRunner Posted February 1, 2004 Seems u guys missed out on trying out a great wad. I dunno why job imed me but he asked me to play his wad,it was indeed hard,dark,yet kicks ass at the same time. Great map even though its not done yet. 0 Share this post Link to post
Chopkinsca Posted February 1, 2004 I hate overly bright maps, kind of defeats the whole point of 'doom'(unless it is done very well). My map I'm making is really dark in some places, but it is in a cave, where there are no lights (almost). The only thing that bothers me are the square lights in the last screen shot. I think making them octogon shaped would please me more, but it is up to you. 0 Share this post Link to post
Amaster Posted February 1, 2004 The map isnt actually as dark as it appears in those shots. I never had a problem seeing where I was going. I must agree though that it's silly to make a zdoom map just for colored lighting. But hey, it's his map. 0 Share this post Link to post
