PhantomTMac Posted January 13, 2013 Here's a brief look at the current Deathmatch wad I'm working on. It will feature maps based off of popular video games through the years. SONIC THE HEDGEHOG SUPER MARIO 64 COMMENT YOUR THOUGHTS AND FAVORITE VIDEO GAME TITLES! DOWNLOAD THE GREEN HILL ZONE MAP: http://www.mediafire.com/?j6mj9rorujm3t4b Download the wad above and do an Offline Deathmatch Skirmish to get a feel of how the map will play out. WARNING: Enemy bots are stupid and will likely fall into water or run into walls during tests. Thanks! - PhantomTMac 0 Share this post Link to post
Springy Posted January 13, 2013 Looks pretty good so far! The sonic level reminds me of a UDM3 a little (as that had a similar one or was it UDMX?) I can't remember tbh. I would say one I'd like to see is a Zelda themed map. 0 Share this post Link to post
Obsidian Posted January 13, 2013 I wonder if anyone's tried a God of War themed map? Nice pics by the way. The Sonic ones are pretty groovy. 0 Share this post Link to post
esselfortium Posted January 13, 2013 Cool stuff, though I think I'd darken some or all of the textures slightly; it's a bit hard on the eyes as-is. edit: Actually you might just want to turn down the map lighting itself. Are these fullbright or something? Try something closer to 192 for outdoor scenes if you're not already; the little bit of brightness fading and edge contrast ought to add some more depth to the scenes. 0 Share this post Link to post

The brightness in the Green Hill Zone is set to 255, but I think it makes sense. I actually did try 192 for that map, cause I do 192 for most of my outdoor wads, but it looked too dark. 0 Share this post Link to post
TimeOfDeath Posted January 14, 2013 Looks cool. How did you remake the levels? 0 Share this post Link to post

Avoozl Posted January 14, 2013 I don't understand why sonic fans must always bring mario into the picture when they make mods for games or videos for youtube, not to mention always pitting mario as second best. :P 0 Share this post Link to post

What gives you that assumption? This wad is going to have a bunch of games. My point wasn't to make Mario or Sonic seem better. 0 Share this post Link to post

Shadow Hog Posted January 14, 2013 Of those, I'm thinking Kakariko Village would make the most sense as a DM map.scalliano said:I would have thought Sonic fans were too busy deriding Sonic these days ... Actually, Colors and Generations were pretty good. Gave 'em something to gush over instead. 0 Share this post Link to post

PhantomTMac Posted January 15, 2013 All right readers. Hopefully by now you've had a chance to download and try the Green Hill Zone map. Post your thoughts! Coming soon: A new Ocarina of Time based map! 0 Share this post Link to post

If I did the castle, I'd most likely do the inside area where you're avoiding guards (maybe some of the courtyard). If I did the village, it would likely be the whole town, except you wouldn't be able to go in buildings. 0 Share this post Link to post
