untilitdies Posted June 9, 2016 Very very much a WIP. I had three big "chunks" planned for this map, and I've mapped out the geography for about two of them. Texturing, enemies, and all that good stuff to come. Having a lot of fun playing around with teleporters. 0 Share this post Link to post

I'm trying to take inspiration from the early levels of Doom without copying stuff; I'm most excited to see if I can get the idea I want working (the big triangle near the top). 0 Share this post Link to post

Too bad I couldn't push it much past that, I kinda floundered around, trying to wonder up a proper layout. In meantime I am doing some other small map. Not abandoning the previous one, but trying to experiment a bit. Spoiler The lighting effects in Proxyon of Sunlust were awesome, so I have to try my hand at them. With voodoo, of course. 0 Share this post Link to post
TheNerdTurtle2 Posted June 15, 2016 Populating my map and adding fun :) Lots of fun 1 Share this post Link to post
untilitdies Posted June 15, 2016 Very very WIP; only getting base textures down for everything, and I'll be adding decorations and enemies later. Would appreciate any suggestions on how to make these areas better, sans picture 5; the startan/lava textures on the raising bridge are a placeholder until I've finished with that part of the map. 0 Share this post Link to post

I'd say that the big grey textures are kinda ugly, but if you're set on using those maybe make the rooms darker and add lighting to certain parts? Also adding contrast in color is a good idea, that's why I use hints of blue flats in boring rooms. 0 Share this post Link to post
untilitdies Posted June 16, 2016 Right, I don't like using the grey textures, but the issue is that I can't find any that fit that don't scale weirdly or look super out of place (i.e. Startan2). Will definitely use more of the blue flats though; the better areas of my map already have some of those. 0 Share this post Link to post

Impie Posted June 21, 2016 Well THERE's a huge 90s throwback: sketching Doom levels on paper. 0 Share this post Link to post
Miss Bubbles Posted June 21, 2016 Been working on a Heretic E1 wad. Some of these levels are a couple years old but I recently picked them back up after a long Doom mapping hiatus. I decided that Heretic would be fun to do something different, and I found some old unfinished halfway decent levels of mine, so I've been touching them up and finishing them off. For some reason at the time I had decided to make them very non-orthogonal. I guess I was going for a sort of organic unplanned medieval town feeling and now I've been stuck with trying to continue to emulate that work. I keep getting tons of slimetrails that I have to go and fix up, but hopefully it's worth it to make something that feels different from the normal 90 & 45 degree angle Heretic maps. 1 Share this post Link to post
Fonze Posted June 21, 2016 Looks good Miss Bubbles! All five of us Heretic fans will enjoy checking them out. 0 Share this post Link to post
Albertoni Posted June 21, 2016 Whoa, that Heretic map looks amazing! untilitdies said:Would appreciate any suggestions on how to make these areas better, sans picture 5; the startan/lava textures on the raising bridge are a placeholder until I've finished with that part of the map. Add a bunch of color, some mid-textures to break the monotony. In the last picture, you could add some of the squares with a darker interior, those in the second picture. Maybe some windows showing the sky too. Also, something I've learned is that a room twice as big is four times as hard to get looking good. If the layout can survive that, make the rooms smaller.

I hope you like surrealism. 1 Share this post Link to post
TheArcadeStriker Posted June 22, 2016 Oh, hello again Albertoni! Ahem, back in topic, I am doing my take (or something like a inspired map by original E1M1) in E1M1, for most parts getting to do something similar to stuff in E1M1 (Not a copy, though), with some "original" parts thrown in (Or more like alternate interpretations of some parts in the level). I will possibly release it tomorrow. I may also later take screenshots (Or finish and publish the WAD) of a Deathmatch map I'm creating. 0 Share this post Link to post

Miss Bubbles Posted June 24, 2016 Fonze said:Looks good Miss Bubbles! All five of us Heretic fans will enjoy checking them out. Haha thanks. I've always had a soft spot for Heretic. It's no Doom, but it's got a nice setting and feel to it. It's a shame about the lack of content, but it's nothing a few custom textures and sprites can't fix!

I feel like I'm better at making a map look decent than I am at making something that has interesting gameplay. 0 Share this post Link to post
