  1. Hope this isn't asked too often but I couldn't find threads where I could find a clear answer. I'm making an Ultimate Doom megawad and I would love to be able to change the names of the levels and episodes, as well as the text at the end of each episode. In the future I'd love to be able to do so with a Doom II megawad as well. What's the best way to do this? Most answers I've seen suggest editing the MAPINFO lump using SLADE or XWE or a program like that, but I can't find anything called that in my pwad.
  2. A while back I posted about my work in progress Ultimate Doom megawad, called Doom: The Penumbra Episodes. Well it's now finished (well, I might continue to work on it and release updates, but for the time being I'm sick of working on this thing, haha) and I want to finally share it with people for the first time. Here's the level listing once again: Episode 1 - A Terrestrial Nightmare E1M1 - The Armory E1M2 - Data Mainframes E1M3 - Bunker E1M4 - Security Station E1M5 - Laboratories E1M6 - Garbage Disposal E1M7 - Atomic Engineering E1M8 - Base Core E1M9 - Subterraneans (Secret Level) Episode 2 - The Hallows of Limbo E2M1 - Limbo Entrance E2M2 - Place of the Lost E2M3 - Valley of Skulls E2M4 - Styx E2M5 - The Tombs E2M6 - Altar of Blood E2M7 - Wastelands E2M8 - Tartarus E2M9 - Hidden Chamber (Secret Level) Episode 3 - Ganymede Hellhive E3M1 - Ganymede Anomaly E3M2 - Abandoned Plant E3M3 - Infernal Outpost E3M4 - Infested Station E3M5 - Resource Processing E3M6 - Dilapidated Area E3M7 - Hellhive E3M8 - Gates of Hell E3M9 - Restricted Sector (Secret Level) Episode 4 - Hell of All Hells E4M1 - Hells Entrance E4M2 - Depths of Hades E4M3 - Judecca E4M4 - The Malebolge E4M5 - The Abyss E4M6 - Fires of Gehenna E4M7 - Hell Tabernacle E4M8 - Unholy of Unholies E4M9 - Lost Sanctuary (Secret Level) And here's the link to the megawad: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qlt32qhlt6yhszm/DOOM%20Penumbra.WAD?dl=0 I still cannot figure out how to take screen captures in zdoom, hope you'll forgive me for that. Hope you like it, I've worked for many months by myself on this thing and I can't look at it anymore but I think (and hope) I did a pretty deccent job. :)

    Doom: The Penumbra Episodes

    Well I AM a bit of a newb at Doom building so I guess I'm not too surprised there. I consider the IWAD Doom levels to be pretty spectacular, id be astounded if my levels looked as good as John Romeros or Sandy Petersens (aside from Nirvana and The Chasm). I don't know, I guess I intend for this megawad to be seen for what they are rather than be seen as attempting to break new ground in the ZDoom community or anythingg like that. Perhaps I should have made the doors move faster though. A movement speed of 10 seemed fine to me prior to being told otherwise :p

    Doom: The Penumbra Episodes

    Alrighty I removed all the Doom resources and so it should be significantly smaller now. Here's the new link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qlt32qhlt6yhszm/DOOM%20Penumbra.WAD?dl=0

    Doom: The Penumbra Episodes

    I'm new to posting wads. I was under the impression that those need to be included in order for the thing to be playable. What should I remove from the wad file?

    Doom: The Penumbra Episodes

    Whoops, think I fixed it. Forgot to hit share in dropbox.
  7. DOOM: The Penumbra Episodes Coming soon, I hope to release Doom: The Penumbra Episodes, a megawad of Ultimate Doom (I chose it over Doom II because I like the episode format a lot. It'll be my second megawad after Doom: Chaos Hunter, which in my opinion was far more amateur than this one thus far. I intended for the level design not to be anything super detailed like Alien Vendetta or crazy like Hell Revealed, its meant to resemble the levels of Classic Doom, both in appearance and difficulty. So far I have episode 1 finished aside from some asthetic details that need to be added, and about half of the levels of the other three episodes completed. It will use the resources of Ultimate Doom, but I use them in a (hopefully) creative way that gives the game a different sense of flow and story from Doom, with locations like Limbo and Ganymede (and of course Hell, but thats not exactly original :P). Just wanted to post this so that info about it is on the web and not all simply sitting on my computer. Here's the level listing: Episode 1 - A Terrestrial Nightmare E1M1 - The Armory E1M2 - Data Mainframes E1M3 - Bunker E1M4 - Security Station E1M5 - Laboratories E1M6 - Garbage Disposal E1M7 - Atomic Engineering E1M8 - Base Core E1M9 - Subterrainians (Secret Level) Episode 2 - The Hallows of Limbo E2M1 - Limbo Entrance E2M2 - Place of the Lost E2M3 - Valley of Skulls E2M4 - Styx E2M5 - The Tombs E2M6 - Altar of Blood E2M7 - Wastelands E2M8 - Tartarus E2M9 - Hidden Chamber (Secret Level) Episode 3 - Ganymede Hellhive E3M1 - Ganymede Anomaly E3M2 - Abandoned Plant E3M3 - Infernal Outpost E3M4 - Infested Station E3M5 - Resource Processing E3M6 - Dilapidated Area E3M7 - Hellhive E3M8 - Gates of Hell E3M9 - Restricted Sector (Secret Level Episode 4 - Hell of All Hells E4M1 - Hells Entrance E4M2 - Depths of Hades E4M3 - Judecca E4M4 - The Malebolge E4M5 - The Abyss E4M6 - Fires of Gehenna E4M7 - Hell Tabernacle E4M8 - Unholy of Unholies E4M9 - Lost Sanctuary (Secret Level) Really wish I could include screenshots but I cannot figure out for the life of me how to do it since it just shows blackness. Just posting this to see if it catches anyones attention and if this is something that sounds good to people. :P

    Changing level names & intermission text

    Ah okay I see. From looking at the files of megaWADs that have unique level names, it looks like even with a mapinfo lump, you still need to make the graphic files of the level names themselves on the intermission screen. Is there a fairly simple way to make the text image files that id need for level names? Or am I completely out of my league in hoping I can fairly simply change the level names? :P
  9. I'm not a big fan of the Icon of Sin, or some variation of John Romeros head as the end boss of a megawad, as it doesn't seem very original or creative. What are some of the best megawads that have an actual fightable monster as the final boss of the game? The only real one I can think of that I've seen is Doom: Survive in Hell. Or any Ultimate Doom megawad since those tend to have the Spider Mastermind as the final boss, but those don't count.

    Custom Sky Textures (or skyboxes)

    Episode 3 for both Ultimate Doom and Heretic are my faves.
  11. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0i86m78nobzt8pt/AAChatKKZA6ASDwQlRixSSEVa Here's a Doom 2 megawad file I worked on for many months, called DOOM: Chaos Hunter. It is still somewhat in it's beta stage, with some textures still not centered and stuff like that, but it's in playable form and I'd love to show it to people. It is zdoom only and is somewhat large because it has a lot of custom monsters from realm667. My goal was to make a megawad that plays like classic doom but has added monsters. If anyone is willing to play it and lemme know what they think, I would find it very awesome :) Here is the level list: Earth Base Levels Map01 - Crews Quarters Map02 - Water Treatment Map03 - Base Corridors Map04 - Executive Penthouse Map05 - Toxin Disposal Map06 - The Restricted Sector Map07 - Central Mainframe Boss: Terminator Map08 - Underground Route Map09 - Headquarters Boss: Spider Mastermind Map10 - Portal Generation Plant Map11 - Titan Portal Boss: Cyberdemon Titan Base Levels (+Secret Levels) Map12 - Titan Anomaly Map13 - Lost Base Map14 - Atomic Research Map15 - Phi Laboratories Map31 - Netherworld Hive Map32 - Queens Chamber Boss: Netherworld Queen Map16 - Ground Zero Map17 - Inner Base Map18 - Titan Catacombs Map19 - Hellhive Map20 - Hell's Portal Boss: Inferno Demon x2 Hell Levels Map21 - Hell's Gate Map22 - Nessus Map23 - The Lake of Fire Map24 - Depths of Hades Map25 - Sheol Tombs Map26 - Tartarus Boss: Overlord, Hades Elemental x4 Map27 - The Abyss Map28 - The Malebolge Boss: Cyberdemon x3 Map29 - Pandaemonium Map30 - Hell of Hells Boss: Moloch of Hell, Overlord x2

    DOOM: Chaos Hunter Beta

    No problem, thanks for playing it! It's true, I started the megawad when I was still rather in experienced so you can see my own improvement as a map builder throughout the megawad. I would be interested to hear what you think of the later levels.

    Best WADs/MegaWADs With New Enemies

    My favorites with new monsters have been the Zdoom Community Project and Deus Vult II.
  14. Yeah, I always thought it was depressing, largely because the levels it in are levels that disturbed me as a kid. Phobos Anomaly, a level where you just get consumed by monsters at the end, and House of Pain, where there is a gallery of flayed bodies in an inacessible room filled with blood.
