Post your Doom picture! [post in Part 2 instead]

Got kind of a wild hair today and made a model of the Doom logo in Sketchup.

It's not as nice as I wish it would be. What I ended up doing was stick an image of the logo on a face and blew it up to a reasonable size, and then carved the shape of the logo out. So it's not totally straight and not totally even, but you might not even be able to notice without really looking at it with close scrutiny.

As well, Sketchup can do some gorgeous things:

Could end up being useful for future projects. Of course one of these days maybe I'll end up making a proper, perfectly measured version too. Might not really matter in the end though.

Quite cool :)

I like. Though you got the perspective on the first two letters the wrong way round!

Yes, I know. I have a bad bad bad habit of starting new projects. But this started off as just a simple weapons mod that went out of hand. :P

Yes, the space-suit scripting does work quite well. (its only active when you're out in space or harsh environments.....like space. :P)

I however do need to find someone who can fix up a colormap to go with my new palette as there are a few major problems with it (which probably don't show up too much in the screenshots here. EDIT: yes it does, mostly in the red rocks)

[TomoAlien]

Woah! Looks cool, but you should stick to one project at the time. What's up with that Heretic project you were working on?

[SaladBadger]

Is that descent with gravity I see? Looks good

I was just showing it from an angle to prove that it's an actual model and I'm not just blowing smoke. ;P

Various robots you'll fight. These are already sprited and made so far, with different attacks for each one. (not pictured is the sidearm, which is pretty much a rocket launcher with eyes.)

[kristus]

Perspective problem, they are viewed from slightly above. That is quite likely to look odd in game since they are viewable from different axises depending on where they are. Look at Lost souls, Cacodemons and the flying things in Duke3d for examples. All of them are sprited from the same level. ie, head on.

On top of that, it's also more likely that they will be seen from below, rather than from above in game.

@kristus:
Look at the 2nd screenshot. It has a Red Scout.
On the screenshot it's from correct level, but in that enemy list it's from higher angle.

[Super Jamie]

Are the enemies even sprites? In something this advanced they could easily be models.

rf`, I love you. <3 <3 <3

You need someone in a blue suit to pay you money and tell you what to do.

Here's my card. Call me if you're interested.

Not only did the revenant get me with a seemingly impossible homing missile that also ended up doing max damage, it had to add to the injury by turning around and doing a skeletal, ass-shaking dance at my dead, marine corpse. :(

That looks rad. Is it one of yours in-progress or a released PWAD?

[esselfortium]

I think it may be Speed of Doom, if I'm not mistaken.

Considering how little animation Descent robots need, why not make them models? Hell, why not remake some of the original Descent robots? I'd love to shoot some Class 2 Drones.

Also I want to play this so bad. Doomscent, what an awesome idea. Will you be using the awesome Descent 1 music?

*hums the Mercury Solar Lab music*

Hmmmm, not trying to be a prick, but why not move this to GZDoom and just take advantage of GZDoom's true color abilities? after all, this is ZDoom, so it shouldn't be such a hard move at all.

[Woolie Wool]

GZDoom would be a much better platform for a Descent-style mod than ZDoom. This is crying out for proper models rather than model rips, and software ZDoom can't do that.

Embrace hardware acceleration! It is your destiny!

Some shots from Threshold MAP07. Just 2 more maps left :D

[DuckReconMajor]

Go go go! I had a lot of fun playing the maps you released a while back.

[ArmouredBlood]

I'm either excessively interested in this map or foolishly think it won't take the 3 weeks of actual work I know it will. There's still a rather large building that needs to be epically built in the left end of the map, and finish copy/pasting sky-obstructing buildings on the top and right sides of the map, plus mixing up those textures so it's not just a horribly plain bunch of buildings (despite RL skyscrapers being rather uninteresting chromatically, excepting the windows). And then comes the rubble-slides and actual placing of things, which means the gameplay's probably gonna suck and all this work will be worthless >.<

Forgetting that craptastic map-in-progress assessment, I really like this descent conversion rf' is working on, and I like where scalliano's maps are going :)

The colored lighting is a bit much, I think.

[Kaiser]

New hud layout options for those who think the TC is still better.

[ArmouredBlood]

Not too sure about this sky ...

Plus using those grate-like textures in the last pic come out a bit weird in prboom.

That orange light is horrible.

[DuckReconMajor]

The lighting looks just fine.
