The Unseen King

Hey djk, just saw your reply. I would love to help you further but it would probably be better if we continued this through email, feel free to email me at phil84@mac.com

One Bloddy Night: A very very good level set. Unfortuanatley I had to swallow my pride and play on Hurt Me Plenty but overall probably the best level pack in the New Stuff Chronicles for quite a few weeks. Cuit: As requested by David here is a review for Cuit.wad . It took me a while to find it at the archives(It is a Doom Level and not a Doom II Level) Unfortuantly it wasn't really worth my time trying to find the level since this level is fairly poor IMO. Don't get me wrong, its a great first effort, definatley better than mine IMO. However it is very easy to see that this was the Authors first map. He has obviously spent alot of his time experimenting with the various tricks and traps the Doom2.exe can do but with no overall theme. I personally would like to see the author make a new level since I feel if he manages to stick to a central theme and adds a bit more detail he could become a good level designer.

I just finished going through King of Pain and I must say that I didn't find it to be all that bad. Okay, so it isnt going to win my wad of the year award but I'm fairly sure I would end up with a worse wad if I went and randomly downloaded a wad off the ftp archives. All in all feel free to skip this level pack if you want but if you want a (easy) wad to play it might as well be this one.

I'm currently in the earliest stages of my next map. Unfortunatley I can already tell that this is going to take me A LOT longer since I'm trying to add more detail this time around (but it definatley won't push the doom2.exe to its limits.......) Unfortunatley I don't have heretic so I can't comment on ShadowCaster but if it is anything like the last effort of Ultimate Doomer that I played (Frag Port) I'm sure that it will play just fine! I'm also looking forward to looking at that tripple bridge you have planned ;) I also just played through Foul Ruin and I must say that this is a very good map which everyone should download and play. The gameplay is great and it is well detailed as well.

Yeah sorry, I meant how could I add the demo to the file. I've worked it out now, thanks for all your replies!

Thanks for your comments so far. I'll do my best to improve my architecture, but hey, I think i'm the only person in the history of my high school to fail grade 7 art. So it may very well be easier said than done... On another note I've already emailed the author of the wad Complex 867 but I'll say it again here. Overall I thought this was a good level. My initial feeling was that it was a 'better' version of my own level. Like my level it has a lot of good fights, it has more inventive traps and a better level of detail (but certainly the detail could be improved) There is one major bug that I have found however. Don't try to run through any windows around the yellow key are, you may find yourself stuck behind a red door.

Hey guys, this is Phil Renshaw here, author of Into the Breach. I would appreciate any comment (both good or bad) on my Wad. I whipped up Into the Breach in three days simply as a devertion to my Exam Studies but now that they are over (yah!) I plan on making a new wad which will be hopefully bigger and better than my previous attempts. So any feedback on what you liked and disliked about my level would be greatly appreciated and will help me make better maps.

This is a very stupid question but how do you add an LMP to a WAD so it runs when you load up the doom2 exe?
