Post Your Doom Picture (Part 2)

Oh god I love those trucks!

Forgot about this ditty I was working on. Actually, I thought I had neglected to save it before formatting my hard-drive and found a copy in my Dropbox folder.  I definitely remember stopping because the original wasn't a very good map to use as a base, but the work I've already done is compelling enough to maybe start nibbling at it again.

Had a pretty productive weekend.

 

 

I'd show more but I want to keep the rest of it a surprise. Shame you won't be able to play this map for another five years or so!

Looks like BTSX E3 map, based on that switch texture and sky. Looks pretty good nonetheless.

[Gez]

Looks like a BTSX E3 map based on the "five years" wisecrack. :p

 

Nah but seriously those blue walls outside are very BTSXish. It's that, isn't it?

[Breezeep]

Yeah, It's definitely a BTSX map. Looks awesome!

Ouch

I just finally finished last part of the map. Now,I'm going to add textures somewhere else and put some decorations. I have feel,this map is going to be good than my first showed map.

More Flesh Interface

Somebody spilled the pink on my doom... (still pretty WIP, this one)

More darkmoon screenshots from the construction zone map, i added a small excavation section.

Can't wait to finish it

This looks really nice and moody! The starry dark red sky goes really well with all the muted greens. My only small gripe would be the way the upper texture between the supports under the arc furthest from the player in the first shot is cut off, though I'm not quite sure how I'd handle it myself. Perhaps the texture or the entrance to that area could be modified a bit to accommodate the slope?

Looking very cool! That final shot with the orange lit door reminds me of some of the creepier sections of Quake 2.

 

What's the texture pack you're using, if you don't mind me asking?

I spotted this really quickly myself. Two options in my opinion.

 

1) Use less defined textures that won't look weird when 'cut'. A bad example of this is the flat, CEIL5_1, which has no defined parts to the texture.

2) You could 'flatten it off' so there's sky above it. Alternately, use a portal so the building can continue upwards and look more impressive. I can elaborate more in (2) if @DMPhobos wants me to, but I'm already certain they're skilled enough! :)

The revenant shooting colorful magic crystals ruins the mood quite a bit?

[Dragonfly]

They look more like rockets than the doom2 rockets tbh.

Very cool hellish landscape

Tremble, MS Paint! Your reign of terror is at an end! :p

[Ribbiks]

@tourniquet, is that the red entry that was slated as an addendum to Miasma?

[Dragonfly]

@Gez is that a new SLADE feature or have I been oblivious this whole time?

Were using hidfan's Doom 3 textures, along with original textures for some doors and crates

It did bothered me once i sloped the ceiling and noticed it, a lot of the textures look odd in these angled slopes... couldn't figure a way so i left it as it was for the moment.

I did considered using portals to make the effect you mentioned, but i figured that since the ceiling is sloped it could be problematic for the portals, so i didn't tried it yet. I have yet to fix this, maybe 3d floors can achieve the same effect.

Thanks everybody for your comments!

[Dragonfly]

If 3D floors are acceptable in your project then just use a sloped 3D floor for the support beams and then adding a portal / other solutions will be very easy! :)

[esselfortium]

I think you should be able to use a decorative portal on the sloped sky ceiling there without it causing problems.

Yep, something coming to SLADE soon hopefully.

The more I look at Darkmoon, the less I get it. First there's the issue of the textures lacking definition. I thought that maybe it's because whoever made that texture pack just went old-school and converted only diffuse maps, but I can see some shading on some of the textures, so I dunno. Then there's the ever-present grey lighting that I'm not sure really compliments the ever-present grey+brown texturing. I wonder where are the people who yelled at Doom 3 for being too grey, because this is a whole new level.

 

Also, I think that those weapon sprites need to perish. Too bad there's no decent alternative.

 

Sorry for being negative.

Those map geometry mountains look surprisingly natural.

No, this is for another project not related to Miasma or its successor.

Buildings are set! Now onto decorating nature:

Gez, if I give you full credit, can I use that texture in my next map?  

 

Art like this can't be ignored.  I especially love the way the two different heights of the cross section of the "H"s is used to highlight the inherent unbalance in today's society - that what may seem symmetrical and equal is in fact subtly distorted.  A reference to George Orwell perhaps?  Layers upon layers!
