provide more backstory as to why these specific sigils

 

Shit looks cool, yo.

 

But more seriously: I do take inspiration and symbols from real world references a lot of the time, but Doom has always been super loose with this and just broadly flirts with the aesthetic. This is consistently true all the way from 1993 to 2016, and I continue in that spirit. So I might turn something upside down or add something or juxtapose things, and it's kind of fun to seek out the more obscure stuff, like in this shot from Dragonfly's post.

Testing Mushroom Hill textures for something *BOWOK*

Total Doom development is going smoothly.

Let's see if anyone recognise this place...

@Dragonfly Those blue night sky shots are fucking pretty.

This is really amazing, didn't see this doom art yet.

[dobu gabu maru]

Been working with yakfak's set since it tickled my fancy

 

 

 

This perfectly sums up my experience on the new textures and thing replacements thus far:

doing theme testing for a followup to Starlight Sanctuary. This one is the Legendary Sea of Stars, based on yet another dungeon in a dumb gacha game. The bosses of the dungeon are aquatic themed so I'm trying to incorporate that.

Yeah, great artwork by Kurashiki. I was thrilled when I saw it. I actually have a framed print of it hanging on the wall.

Still catching up on the must-play WADs in Doom's history. This moment in Epic2 had me chuckling for a minute.

 

This scenario is also in Epic 2? Really?... not again :S

It wasn't the gameplay scenario so much as how it was revealed. For the most part the WAD had been composed of tombs and jungles up to this point. This hellish, evil room occurs near the end of a tomb-themed map (which, in turn, is near the end of the WAD) with a predominantly grey and brown color scheme: only Egyptian murals and fountains decorate the walls and floor. However, when you find the final key, you open a door which uncovers a room composed entirely of flesh. Upon getting to its far wall, you are dropped down a pit and end up staring this bleeding pharaoh zombie in the face with all the revenants dancing around it. The drop also only lasts about a frame, so it functions as a very muted jump scare. Other WADs and games have climaxed with fire and flesh, of course, but it was especially impactful here.

This is the scenario I was talking about, I've seen it originally in Alien Vendetta, then in Deus Vult II and Jenesis too, differently decorated of course, and in the first two cases you enter to the area from tunnels instead. Perhaps in Epic 2 it's a little bit different, I have yet to see that.

My current work in progress. I work really slowly so hopefully my second map (this) will be finished before Xmas. Going for ultra detail without getting too silly. The gameplay will be a mostly linear fast - action based romp through a space base. Lots of enemies but not going for a crazy difficult map, just a fast, fun ride. 

Enemy placement / lighting / detailing not finished in the photos below.

I saw some slopes in some of the other pictures, so it looks like you're using UDMF. If so, you can rotate the floor texture so the lights along the wall can be going sideways along the wall all the way around, and not sticking out from the wall in some places.

[Dragonfly]

^ Could be "ZDoom (Doom In Hexen) format, etc, but I doubt it heh. Regardless, good advice. If it's not UDMF but is still ZDoom based, you could use the following ACS feature: Sector_SetRotation()

Thanks for the great tip. I'm using UDMF, how exactly do i rotate floor textures?

Woah, Déjà vu!

In GZDoom Builder, you set the Rotation in the Surfaces tab of the Edit Sector window.

Bauul's mapping tip #32:  If in doubt, put in a creepy Alice in Wonderland-esque cog corridor when the player is least expecting it.

Some more pics from my weird map. Really trying to straddle the line between "experimental" and "downright obnoxious"

Those are so cool Zanieon! Not sure if I could effectively play the maps, i'd constantly be stopping to look at all the details..
