what are you working on? I wanna see your wads.

ACCELERATED ARENAS 2: MAP01: GALAXY GORGE:

 

 

Gonna be starting the second session of my deathmatch community project in about a week from now!

 

I've got the first speedmap done, took me 2.5 hours. This will be the introductory map in the new proposed set.

 

Keep an eye out in the next 5-7 days for an in-depth thread giving more details - if you're new to deathmatch mapping, you're more than welcome to join up!

 

The more the merrier - I've already 'unofficially' begun this community project in my Discord server, Arrowhead's Arenas!

 

I know I just released session 1 like 3 days ago, but I really wanted to get going on the next! Plus, working w/ Ancient Aliens is a blast, of course! We're not in any rush, I just had a buncha time, and wanted to get started early!!

 

 

:D

Unnamed JimmyTex Deathmatch Pack: MAP04: CRAP MAP:

 

 

Some kind of horribly managed sewer-waste processing depot!

 

Kinda vaguely inspired by the 'Waste' levels of Quake 4.

 

And yes, that's exactly what you think it is!

 

Disgusting.

 

Was gonna call the map 'You Can Smell This Level'.

But the name 'Crap Map' made my childish self laugh more. So I went w/ that!

 

Sometimes you just gotta mix your themes up a bit, ya know?

 

Oh yeah, the best part! How could I forget!

 

It's got a catchy MIDI remix of 'Great Mighty Poo Finale', by @Bloo - originally from Conker's Bad Fur Day!

 

So yeah, clearly the highest of art - didn't expect it to be a 2-map day!

 

 

:D

I tried to code and map something

Things might heavily change since I'm blocking out the map

Apex DM: MAP05: CONSTELLATION COVE:

 

 

This JimmyTex set finally has a name!

 

Apex DM!

 

This one took a little longer to make than the last couple maps, but I think it turned out decent in the end!

 

 

:D

[Arrowhead]

Apex DM: MAP07: SECRET LABORATORY:

 

 

Knocked out a quick techbase map!

 

JimmyTex. Good stuff, but that goes without saying!

 

Not sure how many maps will be in this pack. But I'm zipping along, having begun this 6 days ago.

 

@mothvox @Bloo @TheGreenZap @SkeletronMK667 have all jumped on to this project too, so we should hit a dozen maps in no time.

 

I might stop at 12 levels, I might go as long as I can, who knows! I'm having fun working w/ these textures!

 

I know that much!!

 

 

:D

This is the last area in my mapset. You'll escape the island in that experimental fighter jet.

 

Now I'm racking my brain in trying to figure out how to have players actually climb aboard inside it from the top of the jet. Do I use portals here for this?

If it's udmf would be awesomely funny to have a door lower to the floor and then a portal inside it, and then it be comically enormous inside compared to how it looks on the outside.

I thought portals don't work in outdoor settings, at least if I am interpreting this video correctly anyways.

 

So I ended up completely reworking that whole section and basically just borrowed the exit area seen in the final section from Suspended in Darkness with the spaceship on the lift.

They do, you have to play this to see it in action. I think it would be a funny joke if you figured it out.

PBR materials are coming along great, building a map to show them off. Progress is slow because I keep playing with different light settings. 

 

[Arrowhead]

Apex DM: MAP08: THE SCAB PITS:

 

 

A bloody hellish courtyard type deal, paired w/ a slight hint of tech.

 

Maps are coming along fast - so far so good!

 

 

:D

Apex DM: MAP11: UNDER FIRE:

 

 

New large FFA map for Apex DM!

 

Likely the largest map of the pack thus far.

 

A large central sandy courtyard where many drains are filling it w/ thick lava. High bridges, platforms and tunnels all interlace across this main play area.

 

Extremely vertical map!

@Doom-X-Machina does your map have a forum thread or a planned release date? Looks great!

Hopefully 2025. No forum post yet. Not close enough.
