@Bridgeburner56 shouldn’t those crosses be inverted in your last screen? Other than that it looks sufficiently hellish.

[Cheshire Sphinx]

That looks awesome as all, @BKT. Really curious to see it in action 🙂

 

It's been a long while since I've worked on anything due to some RL health issues. Figured I'd start simple and work up...

 

I'm still boxing out my level, I'm about 5 hours in as of right now. Not much to show, but I'm chipping away at it. >_>

 

 

Approach

 

Something familiar

"The Hell Design Review Committee has finished it's appraisal of your design"

"Yes ..."

"Well, it's just not sufficiently Hellish"

"What"

"It falls short of the criteria we put forward in the design brief"

"It's a lake of blood bristling with arcane structures and home to 2000 demons"

"Even so"

"Sigh. OK"

*goes back and adds 50 more demon face marble textures. Inverts ALL the crosses*

 

But in seriousness that is a good point

I thought I should post a couple pictures of a map I'm working on with MAYhem2018 Purple resources. I'm having a lot of fun with the new textures and custom monsters. The map is about 45-50% complete. I started it on May 4th.

 

The map is meant to be compact and small with a bit of chaos. Still need to add/fix little details, like the light coming from the pillar in the 2nd pic above. I've started on several maps in UDMF but never finished them, but I'm aiming to complete this one in BOOM format. Even if it takes me past the deadline due to my mapping inexperience.

Edited May 11, 2018 by Swalzi : Added the color of MAYhem2018 I'm editing with.

So map 4 is pretty much done now. And this

has become this

Sexy montage will be on the main thread sometime today.

Finally starting some work on the next (and probably central) part of my map. Here's a little look at it so far!

still working on my last level of Revenge of Evil, this time showing a progress of the boss of this hell level, the maledict.

Still actively adding more to this spot, but I'd say this is good progress. I'll allow you the freedom of guessing what else I did!

What little I've got so far from my map for Zekhmet.

 

Those columns raise when they're shot, and the switches in the corners re-lower them.

 

Just an idea of the platforming to come, among other things.

 

[Jon]

I shouldn't be working on this but I had some inspiration for layout changes so I've hacked them in. Back to the other WAD I'm trying to finish.

 

Edit to add a picture of the WAD I *should* be working on (progress/detail in this thread)

Where the sky is flipped it looks a little bit like an anus in the sky... Otherwise it all looks good. :P

I saw similar room in one old map. Anyway nice screenies i like them.

No photo in here, but I'm working on a 500+ map monstrosity of primitive bad levels from years ago as a bonus hidden level hub to a real level I plan on releasing

mostly circa 1995

In case you did not read the thread (I hope you do not take this as a spoiler D':)

Here I left you my WAD that will have 32 levels (I'm working on the difficulty still) the videos that you see are not definitive, they will change in a future.

 

 

[Deadwing]

Just finished the last map for Moonblood X :D

 

So far it's going to be 23 levels (2 no-gameplay levels + 2 secrets + 19 standard ones).

There's still a lot to do, though. I'll have to compose and fix some MIDI's, add secret areas and test the whole thing several times.

 

Hopefully, by the end of this month I'll have a beta avaliable

[doomero-21]

 

Here the death scene for Maledict boss.

 

 

[PeterMoro]

Not sure when my new map is going to be ready. I'm a slow but steady mapper. Hopefully I'm done before the end of summer. 

[Spectre01]

Here is something I can hopefully finish in time for the orange version of Mayhem. I have secretly wanted to make a Scythe-style cave which sticks to one main colour scheme:

Cool stuff. Is this mappack has DW topic?

[Swalzi]

I'm lagging behind and to keep myself on track, I've decided to post the evolution of an area of the map I've been working on. It's nice to keep backups for progression which I'll probably delete after the map is finished.

I went a bit outside my comfort zone and I'm glad I did. I had a hard time visualizing the area as I haven't played a lot of outdoor maps that were memorable. I used Map17 (Canyon of Blood) from Scythe 2 as a reference for the use of vertices outdoors and outdoors in general. Lowering the brightness from 192 to 176 for this area could be a good idea as it looks kind of bad in software rendering.

 

This major encounter is pretty much finished at this point, but I like to experiment with Action 19 tricks here. Some of the enemy positions can see through the waterfall cave even with Ambush property set and will happily walk down to the entry the player goes through. I need to test with NoClip then NoTarget in GZDoom to see the agitators. Make sure to fully move around that area where the enemies spot the player through the cave.

"Is this mappack has DW topic?"......um, sorry? Not sure what the question means. DW=DoomWorld?

[Quagsire]

He might be referring to whether or not the megawad he's talking about has it's own topic, for others to post on.
