Ultraviolet Posted September 14, 2002 I'm looking for what you all would consider the best-looking Doom screenshots, in terms of eye-candy, architecture, texture/color scheme, or all. Just drop a link. The best screenshot I can think of off the top of my head is of Fredrik's UGH DM, because it is perfect in its simplicity. He didn't have to go all out with hyper-detailing, the level of lighting present is perfect, and the level's focus is quite clever. http://www.doomworld.com/fredrik/img/screens/ughbig.png The geometry should look a lot smoother in the new ZGL, too. It will be graphically impressive, even without any dynamic lighting. 0 Share this post Link to post
999cop Posted September 14, 2002 Those 2 pillars in the BFG room on Doom 2 map01 at start were awesome-looking 0 Share this post Link to post
Ultraviolet Posted September 14, 2002 I should probably have clarified that I meant user-addons. What I'm trying to get is a list of impressive screenshots that I can put together and show people why I still play Doom, how much more architecture can be put in a level with just a little patience, how much source ports can extend that architecture... It also couldn't hurt to have something for newbie editors to look at for ideas for architectural elements. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doom_Dude Posted September 14, 2002 Heres a shot of one of my crappy DM wads.. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ultraviolet Posted September 14, 2002 I don't know if you thought about that for long before you posted, but if you think it's crappy, then it is probably not what I'm looking for. However, that screenshot isn't bad. It accomplishes one of my objectives, showing off what source ports can do. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted September 14, 2002 Do you mind if they are from Heretic or Hexen? 0 Share this post Link to post

nxn Posted September 14, 2002 Heh, there's something about those shots that I like. I just like the theme I guess. Actually, if they're done, tell me where I can download these wads. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ultraviolet Posted September 14, 2002 Ichor: I would prefer Doom. 999cop: I like that one... too bad about the quality of the image, though. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ultraviolet Posted September 14, 2002 Anybody think there should be a show-off/screenshots forum? Or would/should that just fall under wads/mods? 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted September 14, 2002 Ok, although I had a few screenshots that would have shown what JHexen can do, not just for the architecture, but for the game itself. Oh well... 0 Share this post Link to post
Ultraviolet Posted September 14, 2002 Well, for different people, different things are visually pleasing. For some it's geometry, for other's it's color. For me, it's a mixture of both, with neither using the other as a crutch because it lacks in either field. 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted September 14, 2002 Well, I might as well pimp the Robinsons work here: http://www.doomworld.com/demise/images/slipgate/slipshot1.jpg this would probably look a lot better in zdoomgl, but I can't get it to run =P 0 Share this post Link to post
999cop Posted September 14, 2002 Maonth, what port did you use to take those screenshots? Zdoom seems too crappy for me. Ultraviolent: Don't worry, I've edited it with psp a little to adjust a bit since I thought the screenshot I took in Zdoom directly was too crappy. In-game it would be much better. Btw, I havn't done decorating it completely yet. 0 Share this post Link to post
