hardcore_gamer Posted May 21, 2007 I have always liked the Doom1 megawads, like those that replace episodes, do you know about any good ones? People don't seem to map for Doom1 anymore. 0 Share this post Link to post

scwiba Posted May 22, 2007 I'm rather fond of ravage's Mapgame (mg.wad), but I can't find it in the archives. I'm not sure it was ever officially released. 0 Share this post Link to post

printz Posted May 22, 2007 Heroes IThis is a compilation, not an original set, but plays well as a unit, but hey, it's still a 36-level Doom 1 megawad, and these are rare. The Serenity series. It may be old and not that perfect, but together they make 24 levels, so it can be called a three-episode megawad. Cleimos episode. It's not a megawad, but it precedes Cleimos 2, a megawad. And I think it's worth playing. I'd like to see more Doom 1 megawads, too. With Doom 1 the designers can exploit intermission maps and finales to neat effects, and edit more levels and secret levels. Doom 2 has only one intermission background, and that cast finale lacking its own music. Brand new monsters and such things can be constructed under vanilla Doom 1, but much fewer under vanilla Doom 2. Doom 1 has a slightly nicer interface -- the player chooses episodes from the GUI, not only from the command-line. Not everyone likes mowing through chaingunners, archies and revs. :) My opinion is that full Doom 1 editing can surpass Doom 2, especially for vanilla. 0 Share this post Link to post
Erp Posted May 24, 2007 http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?id=11987 AKA - The Lost Episodes, very old school doom with no secret levels, but fun IMO. EDIT - tried to to check the mirror download sites but it's not downloadable, some consider it warez, so maybe it was removed, don't know. 0 Share this post Link to post

Kristian Ronge Posted May 24, 2007 Three unmentioned recommended episodes: Return To Phobos Door To Hell Hellrun An episode likely to be hated by some and loved by others (i.e. highly player specific) is Doom: The Savage Sewers 0 Share this post Link to post
The Lag Posted May 25, 2007 i was going to say eternity. i love that episode. the cathedral map is still one of my favorites of the early years. serenity was ok but had just a few too many hokey moments (even for 1994 standards) that made it, in some ways, not nearly as good as other wads released during that time -- and infinity tried too hard to match the greatness of eternity. it had some good moments, but it managed to be eclipsed by certain other wads released that year, the least of which was obituary. 0 Share this post Link to post

Grazza Posted June 4, 2007 printz said:Heroes IThis is a compilation, not an original set, but plays well as a unit, but hey, it's still a 36-level Doom 1 megawad, and these are rare.Yes, it is pretty good. It's worth mentioning that it is not purely a compilation, as some of the maps were tweaked by the compiler, generally with the effect of making them play better, or so that they work as ExM8 levels. Never_Again made a nice demopack, in case you want to experience them the easy way. I think most of the big ones (megawads and episodes) have already been mentioned in this thread. My list here includes a few episodes for Doom1, with brief comments, and a few are mentioned in other posts in the thread. 0 Share this post Link to post
