Post Your Doom Picture (Part 2)

[Demon of the Well]

That's a fucking grade-A shot there, franckFRAG.

Also like those Panophobia shots, though it took me an embarrassingly long moment to realize they're presented in before/after format. The first couple especially remind me of parts of 'Belial's Bad Brain' (and thus, also of 'The 21 Cyberspirits', I suppose), certainly not a bad thing.

^ That is nothing short of glorious! Keep up that amazing work man :)

I got inspired from playing Icarus AV again:





Silver is love, silver is life.

^Silver combination always reminds me of Doom's alpha maps, heh.

[Mechadon]

I've probably said this before, but I love your stuff Afterglow. In particular I've always admired how you approach your architecture in maps. The new textures are fantastic to boot :D

[Tango]

not much, but this is the only section in the map so far that's actually viewable, without HOMs everywhere

Alternate SSG (Thanks to Romero's doom sprite birthday spam!)

Tango that sky texture is beautiful. Are you using an altered palette for it or is it full color?

[Breezeep]

I was bored and decided to use this neat tool for creating gifs with maps winthin wads. Have a render of my entry for Doomworld mega project 2014, which ended up getting corrupted for some strange reason:

It's still the best screenshot I've seen all day. That sky is incredible even without the mountain scenery you've got in front of it.

GOTTA USE DEM ALL

Did you make static decorations with the zombie frames, or were they cooperative enough to do this shot? (In both meanings of "shot", heh.)

[Da Werecat]

The former. :) Didn't even attempt the latter.

[mrthejoshmon]

That came out much better than I thought it would.

[Tango]

@Mech & StupidBunny: thanks! yeah the palette is modified. the pink/maroon ranges are more maroon, so it looks like that now. I didn't make the sky myself, pulled it from the ZDoom texture thread at one point I think... forget who made it, but I have the credits somewhere on another computer. Fuzzballfox had something to do with it, I think, maybe Enjay too?

edit: apparently it was originally by IMX and Fuzzballfox

here's another unrelated shot from a set of short, simple maps I pumped out one week. made for ZDoom, specifically for that Complex Doom mod, but I might eventually retool it for my own set of resources one day. this is the only map of the five that I went back and detailed.

For me, it speaks Memento Mori MAP21 semi-loud.

Alright, I like silver bases! There's not enough of them being made lately. Your one looks good, as well as your other shot you've posted later.

Afterglow's and Tango's shots on this page are looking all great - well, maybe except for the computer screen bit Memfis mentioned.

[Yuki Senmatsu]

Hmm. After Xmas themed wad I'm working on and releasing, I might as well work on a silver base.

Feels like I've overdone base themed :P

Gonna be a while since the layout may be tricky. It will be my first urban themed wad.

[Fuzzball]

Oooh I thought I recognised that sky! Yes I made it :3

DMP2014 map. Almost done..

[scifista42]

Jmickle66666666, I probably make too early assumptions, but to me, your wad looks like it's going to overcome UAC Ultra 2 on its own playing field. As I prefer vivid colours over dull ones, I congratulate you already!

And Du Mhan Yhu: Yay, that's a pretty extensive layout with some detailed parts. Impressive.

[jmickle66666666]

haha thanks! what playing field may I ask? i like uac ultra 1 a lot, definitely inspired a lot of the structure

Ah ha! Now I see how that line figures in the flat. Looking good! I hope you plan to have Doomguy's godmode eyes in a similar orange.

UAC Ultra 2 Episode 1 was released a year and a half ago. Here is its thread (got helled because of a flame after 40oz's "controversial" promotion shout), there's a download link in the OP. It turned out to be quite different from UU1. It consisted of extensive abstract techbases (yet unique!) with focus on exploration and D1-alike gameplay, which actually ended up boring for many people. Completely new textures, but majority of them was in greyscale only, very dark and bland. Your map design in your screenshots reminded me of UU2's way of abstraction, as well as the textures, except for not being bland. If you won't limit yourself to just D1 monster cast like 40oz did, you will probably achieve better gameplay than UU2 had, too. That's what I've meant. They'll be similar in various aspects, yet yours looks better at first sight. At least that's my first impression. They might not end up being similar at all, eventually.

(click to zoom)

with the help of prboom-plus's -levelstat command that generates a text file list of details from a map(s) playthrough, I created a batch file that extracts the total kills from the text file for each map, sums them up, and saves the total in a file. I can open doom anytime I want, kill some monsters, and quit, and my deathtoll adds up so I can keep track of how many monsters I've killed, so long as I complete the level. I wish I had made this 10 years ago!

I'd share it but it's pretty sloppily written and prone to errors. I don't know if there are any cheat prevention measures I can take either, as there really isn't anything stopping me from starting my deathtoll at 999,999,999,999,999,999,999 if I wanted to just by editing the text file.

Now you have the proof that I am a german grammar nazi: I immediately recognized the usual mistake between "your" and "you're" in this screenshot. ;-)

And even worse: It contains both correct and wrong versions.

[Grazza]

I don't see any German grammar errors.

[Tristan]

Not sure if I should really be completely re-texturing this as well, but I couldn't stand all the horribly misaligned BRONZE02 everywhere.
