The_MártonJános Posted June 14, 2017 Just a plain vineyard of sludge and bridges over it. The idea, however, dates back to 12 years before. Those boxes don't look very stable to be piled this way. Anyway, just wondering if something like this could still fit into the limitations of a classic vanilla-esque map. 18 Share this post Link to post

Lutz Posted June 18, 2017 So, @Mechadon gave us a slew of awesome skies for free, but that slacker was too frickin' lazy to make them all tile vertically. (I know, I know -- what a jerk, right? But, we'll take the high road and move on.) Also, I'm a little drunk. And we all know Mech kicks ass. Anyway, that's not my main point -- my point is I would love for someone to help me out with a non-tiling sky. Does anyone have anything similar to the one below that tiles a little less noticeably? 13 Share this post Link to post
Empyre Posted June 18, 2017 @Lutz, maybe this sky would work for you. I got it from somewhere in these forums, but I don't remember who made it. 6 Share this post Link to post

Mechadon Posted June 18, 2017 @Lutz I could look into making a version of that sky that tiles vertically. Although the one that Empyre posted looks really good and would probably work just as well. 2 Share this post Link to post
NaZa Posted June 18, 2017 Yes, I'm still working on Abhorrence, while combating a huge Mapper's Block. That part south in the map? I can't finish that at all. 4 Share this post Link to post
Guest Unregistered account Posted June 18, 2017 I see it ends in a symmetrical room. That's usually the point where I get mapper's block, too. xD 0 Share this post Link to post
NaZa Posted June 18, 2017 It's meant to be a temple under the ground so from my point it should be symmetrical but I just have do idea how to make other rooms properly. 0 Share this post Link to post

Although the one that Empyre posted looks really good and would probably work just as well. File this under "First-World Doom Problems." Yeah, so basically I was a tad tipsy and a bit peeved that (a) I hadn't previously noticed that the sky didn't tile well vertically, and (b) that I don't think it is noticeable from ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE LEVEL except for the last little area (which I really don't want to change). Fundamentally, all I really need is a nice blue/black sky, but your version more-or-less inspired the whole level, so I would like to find a way to make it work. 0 Share this post Link to post

Though an approach that makes the crates look all funny in a (theoretically) Vanilla-compatible map is actually something that could be defined as "thinking outside the box". 5 hours ago, DoomLover234 said: That part south in the map? I can't finish that at all. Sheesh. The feeling is so relatable I don't even... But it might help you to think about what temples are supposed to have inside. Hope this works. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Unregistered account Posted June 18, 2017 I love how you mixed the key trim and COMPBLUE together to essentially make a new texture. 0 Share this post Link to post

ImpMan11203 Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) Trying my hand at making Doom maps. Its a remaster of the crappy E2M9 - Fortress of Mystery. There's gonna be a lot of tricks, traps, and quirks up its sleeve. And everything is not what it seems in here ;-) How does it look so far for my first map? I still have a lot more to go on this though. I'm gonna keep it completely vanilla. So there will be no new textures, or no new sprites. I'm also keeping the same hellish like style that the original E2M9 had Edited June 19, 2017 by ImpMan11203 2 Share this post Link to post

The original E2M9, i mean. 8 hours ago, ImpMan11203 said: How does it look so far for my first map? Looks pretty cool to me, i like the question mark open hallway in the big red rock cave section! Talking about that section, could you make it less rectangular shaped and adding more variety to it? Like this thing: You can do this adding more vertex to your room or doing it with the curve lindefs editing, like this: Spoiler A simple rectangular room, with a building in the centre, how to add more variety to this? Remove any vertex from the corner of your room Eww, looks like shit, but selecting these lines that came out and.. Adding the curve linedefs option in this way will give you a curve and larger sector! Wee! Now repeating the same thing to other corner of your arena and... We have a wide and open arena (maybe too circular for a cave, but you can change it adding more or less vertices in the curve line editing option) 1 Share this post Link to post
ImpMan11203 Posted June 19, 2017 ^ thanks for your opinion! Yeah I made the question mark sectors like that because of the text engraved in there, but I will see what I can do about that. Thanks! 0 Share this post Link to post

Is there a chance we could get some screenshots of that room from different angles? Because it looks like a really interesting room! 0 Share this post Link to post
