Pcorf community project (fun and easy going)

looks nice so far AB

and I have to restart the map I made because of a computer crash.

[Walter confetti]

All good looking stuff guys!

[Philnemba]

Love the pics ArmouredBlood, the 3rd screenshot reminds me of a room from AV.

[ArmouredBlood]

Thanks guys. About 1/3 done shaping layout/monster placement, up to 400 monsters already ... I think it's gonna be a rather large HR style gameplay map ;) Few more screens. And no I didn't kill myself in the last one, a chaingunner got a nice hit in and I think the baron (off-screen) killed him.

Looks symmetrical.... but yeah the symmetry is used very nicely. Who cares about those anti-symmetrical people. You see symmetrical related designs everywhere in real life.

It will probably be the final base level in the wad... or even go into the MAP32 slot if I get 32 levels submitted. I might actually push the deadline into next year until I have received 32 maps. And then I will playtest each level, writing notes along the way of difficulty, theme and which map slot will be appropriate.

I will probably also contribute a map as well.

I was thinking a title for the wad. Something original like DEATHOOM or DEATHDOOM. Or maybe a name I used in the past such as Bella 3, Whispers of Satan 2, Twilight Zone 3, or 2010ADO.... ahh I don't know yet.

Not WoS 2. I don't think a bunch of random-style maps would be an appropriate sequel to WoS.

2 more pics and about half done.





Essentially its going to be a Dead Simple remake so far however there will be more surprises than just groups of mancubus and Arachnotrons ;)

[Talvi]

I'd like to make a map for this. It seems there isn't any restriction when making the map, so it can be of any size, theme and difficulty? I was thinking of a small/medium sized map.

[Walter confetti]

how this wad going?
my map is near the 45% done, just got some clue on this days...

You are welcome do make a map. Go ahead and do what you want to.

I haven't mess with my map since saturday due to work and other stuff,however I'll get it done possible next week(its about 75% done).

[Abyssalstudios1]

I regret to say that, while I wish I could have actually taken my map past the idea-in-DB2 format, I can't do anything for this project. Real life has a nasty habit of making me do things that I'm not very interested in, that also eat up gobs of time. When I finally do have free time to map, this project will have long since been uploaded.

Best of luck!

[ArmouredBlood]

Some more progress, about 65% done as I've about finished the blue-key-opened segment, just need to add a few insets to a spider mastermind fight (not in pics ;P). Still have the yellow key, getting to the red key, then the final fight to do.

Funny to see that your map, AB, looks like it's a Doom 1 level, yet there are a lot of dead monsters coming from Doom II ! :-)

Nostalgy ?

[ArmouredBlood]

Heh, the style kind of evolved over mapping. I haven't actually played doom 1 lately, other than a romp through ep 2 a week or two ago. Might play some again ;)

[Talvi]

Ok I was gonna begin the map but I have a couple of doubts.

-I guess no custom textures, right?
-When you say "use any enemy" means we can add monsters from the bestiary?

No custom resources allowed, except for music.

-That's right. Use only the doom2.wad texture stock.
-You mean tormentor667 bestiary? So, no. Use the doom2.wad monsters, although it couldn't be a limit-removing (doom2+, chocolate doom and similar stuff) project, don't think?

After replies, some new screen shots from my map...

but we are adding a lava fall and a water fall as Pcrof said we could.

I have been so busy I haven't had much time to make a texture wad. Screenshots look excellent Daimon.

[Kyka]

@walter confalonieri

Dude. I really like that big outdoor area. Looks really different for just using stock textures...

[Talvi]

Ok, so just began creating the map, unnamed for the moment, but I think it would fit for the hellish maps. I just did this on a sudden brainstorm of inspiration, hope if I can turn it right. Any advice will be welcomed.

A couple shots

Since I'm becoming a detaling addict, I'd specially like advice on how to improve that bridge.

Not a detailing expert but I would advise getting rid of that ceiling over that bridge so you could give the area a "darker" look. But besides that those two shots look great.

Will you make that texture wad soon? I think I'm going to need some lavafalls, I've become crazy and I'll do some gigantic magma caves in my level.

[Walter confetti]

send my wad to pcorf

I've got it. Thanks!

[Philnemba]

Well I'm nearly finish with my 3rd map so all I need to do left is to add minor details and do some testing.

[Talvi]

I can test any map, but if you send me any tell me how difficult it should be so I don't complain about it.

[Philnemba]

Well after 3 weeks of starting my 3rd map(truthfully I could have finish this earlier before Thanksgiving but I had plans during that time) its finish and I just emailed Pcorf the map.

edit: Well it would dumb for me not to post any pics -_-;
