I know status updates don't entirely work, but I ain't got nowhere else to post this shiiieeet
 

Yeah, we back, we so back.

Got internet again, no more garbage mobile data.

Made this:
 

Quick test render of something I'm doing:
 

The easier starting section geometry is done.
 

Now to just make the gameplay.

Then I will need to learn how to make custom melee weapons and enemies for the modded ZDoom version I want to release alongside the Boom version. Should be fun.

I think that the starting area is too intense for the gameplay I had planned for it, I think I'll add an additional starting area to ease the player into the map for a more friendly start instead of throwing them in the deep end (I want people to enjoy themselves).

Getting very close

Yo dude, just checking out your PFP and that's a pretty sick Nurgle mini you got there (not as familiar with chaos, Motarion?), you got a page you post your stuff too at all.

(Like an Instagram or anything?)

Aight, thought I'd ease back into my Eldar
 

Picked something unnecessarily difficult and as such it's a bit sloppy (please do not look at the gems/Soulstones), very happy with the cyclops eye though.

DESPAIR

I want to get the Quake editor up on the go but I am so painfully mid at 3D mapping that I hate to even look at the editor. I get so frustrated at my lack of skill when it comes to making 3D environments but I so want to do it.

Enough self pity, improvement:

Do you fellas know of any good starting points I can use to help myself improve making levels in 3D?

Anything, tutorials, advice, methods of research, documents ect, any and all. I don't expect to get good overnight, over a week, maybe even months.

Thank you.

So, anyone here want to privately test the PsyDoom wad for me before I release it?

Not sure about the gameplay, anyone willing to hand out some feedback?

It's final Doom, because of course it is.

The layout and progression has been laid out and finished, now just to add extra areas then add gameplay and we should be sorted.

Saying that, the exit is just a switch at the end of a corridor, now I can make a final fight/arena but I am worried about it overstaying it's welcome (like a lot of my things do).

I'm never finishing anything ever, I swear to Helm you can thank Baldur's Gate 3 for that.

We getting the basics done, this ambush is obnoxious and I have already reworked it.

So, funny story.

A """journalist""" decides to make a "best 90's FPS" list, he decides to use AI for it and doesn't actually look at the list the AI produces.

Forbes Corporate Warrior, worthless shovelware from the 90's nobody played, currently has 2 5/5 reviews on an Abandonware website and ONLY those reviews exist.

AI thinks Forbes Corporate Warrior as the best 90's FPS game (literally perfect score), """author""" doesn't check it and just fucking posts it to GameRant's official Facebook.

As you can see the list and ranking is incredible, really sink that in fellas.

God I fucking love AI, God I fucking love inept media.

Been learning the DNF2001 editor by recreating an old Doom map in it, got the main shapes down but Christ that editor is super clunky to use, definitely a product of 2001.

When I learn more about it I hope to use it a bit more, hopefully I learn to streamline it, at the moment I don't expect to be joining the Restoration Team any time soon but I think I'll be able to at the very least do some map conversions (those being conversions of my own stuff, they're basic enough to be easily ported to DNF 01).

Who up Binancing they customer support rn?

Coming to a Playstation near you this winter! ^(probably)

I fucking hate modern interpretations of 90's and 80's action movies/games.

It's always ironic and a parody, without fail, the appeal and magic of gratuitous action and macho bullshit just gets lost when it isn't played deadpan seriously, the charm is almost always lost.

The old films aren't cheesy because they were designed to be so, they're cheesy because they were designed to be as unironically badass as possible in the eyes of the director which produced something completely serious but so completely unaware of how goofy it ultimately was.

It's a lot like the whole old DeviantArt OC thing, they were hilarious because they were a genuine effort by someone to make their badass Sonic oc and were innocently unaware of how silly it was. However the fake OC's where everything is exaggerated are no where near as funny despite being an actual joke.

Maybe irony ruined everything, which is ironic given my reliance on irony in my own humour. Maybe I'm just sick of irony, maybe I'm just an old man who knows.

I wish someone would make something just straight faced with no shame guns blasting like Commando or Hard Boiled.

Very nice Boltgun

The basic geometry and progression is done, now for gameplay.

Slowly carving out a map (working title "Court" for one, big, offscreen reason). At the same time I am also slowly building another:

Working title "Warlock" (don't ask).

Emphasis on slowly.

Here is a quick shitpost render for you, please use sparingly.

Whilst messing around tonight after work, I found out how to extract Warhammer 3 models into Blender and use them to make scenes.

I can either use this new found power for good and make cool shit or fall to chaos and make shitposts...
