Did my boi Norb produce any map(s) for HFII ? He was the author behind map13 "The Abyss" in the 1st Hardfest. I just can't find his name in the list

Greetings :) I present to you all a Vanilla Doom ii wad that is also universally compat. It features 2 new maps that are compact in layout and quite challenging on UV. Theming is blending Hell and Tech together. I tried my best as the solo mapper to keep visuals cohesive and transitions smooth. Critique is welcomed on where I can improve, esp on gameplay Thanks to Doomkid for helping me name the maps for Vanilla based ports. For those who would like to learn , check this quick tut on YouTube. I can't URL it here , but the vid is titled: Change Map Name in DOOM, Quick Tutorial - YouTube *2 maps in total. 1st map is short, 2nd medium length *Playtested in Crispy Doom 6.0 + GZDoom 4.10 (I didn't locate bugs or softlocks, report if you find any) *Jumping + crouching is discouraged , but feel free if It's a preference Lastly , some screenies Twisted Tech.7z

This look simply stunning. The textures are very diverse yet there's still coherency there. You can be proud of the production quality here :)

so glad I limit my caffeine intake

Yes I am. Thank you all for your positive replies

Thanks :)

The physical version looks really impressive! I'll download and can't wait for the full release of this wad! Made my day :)

After recently revisiting the Scythe series (particularly Scythe ii) I felt compelled to design my own castle in UDB, and friends on Discord said I should try it. I also wanted to revert back to Vanilla limits again after mapping in udmf. How I succeed in these limitations, I'll allow you to be the judge :) Some custom resources are used to fit thematically and give a unique identity, inc custom things + textures. Tested in Crispy Doom 6.0.0. Zdoom 2.8.1 / GZDoom 4.10.0 also work fine. Screenies: Castlemania.7z

I agree things got better as the map progressed. Perhaps lacklustre after the initial fight. (As you stated the start was lacking excitement) The Arachnotron room with the hitscanner wins may have been the most engaging combat wise. GG

I'm trying my best to produce for Doomworld but lots of ppl who used to share with me have since vanished from my posts. There was one incident where I should never have pm but show patience and humility. I still feel bad about it. I just feel like I don't belong or deserve my place on Doomworld anymore. :( I was so enthusiastic about returning But still feel exactly the same. Perhaps It's my Autism. I joined here simply with the desire to spread joy and learn , but it seems like no matter what I try , it just isn't working. Help?

So sorry for your loss. Time is the best healer, may it grant you healing brother 🙏

Having played thru this map I can finally comment. The difficulty surprised me! I had to fight for each weapon + the room with crushers & poison required some careful movement to avoid revenants ruining the party. Some nasty ambushes with hitscanners at times in close quarter combat. It made the red key teleport near the end brutal even though I started firing with my plasma to stunlock enemies, esp those pesky revs and Pain elementals. The Caco cloud can get overwhelming if you can't keep them together in a pack. The frustration here is when they fly away to the point I can't lock onto them. The sniping Arachno is easy to forget if the player isn't aware. It's still probably my fav part for It's open ended gameplay. The viles at the end have a very low pain chance so I couldn't stop all of them crossing. Though I isolated one and took him out with the rocket , I had to hunt the other 2 down. 1 critique I'd give would be give more health. The soulpshere for the caco fight was a big help. But some fights are starved of health which some players won't like. Just a heads up. Overall your style would be good in a wad like Hardfest. That's a cool wad if you haven't tried, I highly recommend. Keep at it!

The crusher got me good after grabbing the red key 😅 This map took me back to the days of playing PS Doom back in the late 90s. Good stuff :)

Greetings all. I present to you a short & simple map I made which is playable in any Zdoom based source port. I tested in both 4.5 + 4.8.1 and it worked fine. The theme is pretty standard classic Doom. However I think It's unique enough in areas to be interesting. Please report any issues if you find any via feedback. My main focus is to improve on gameplay from my last map, with a more solid balance, esp on ammo. And also to improve on lighting for more atmosphere. I hope you enjoy :) Here are a few screenies Due to a technical issue with DW , I can't delete the old link as I could before. The good news is the bottom link works with no problems.

Thank you , but Bumping into an old thread isn't cool. The small dispute has long been forgotten by both me and the user. I returned to Doomworld for a fresh start...so I kindly ask no more bumps as ppl want to see new content posted. Also read the rules about bumping in threads before disturbing anyone else's. I'm speaking here as a friend to think before posting. Peace

This post is a national treasure :D

Happy Halloween all :) I present to you a horror themed map that is specifically inspired by PSX & Doom 64. There are a few custom monsters to conform with the theme of the map while making things (hopefully) interesting. I think the best description i can give the theme is nightmare like with small fragments of reality corrupted in a Hellscape. It's relatively small in size yet remains challenging, with a more non linear approach. This particular map was more experimental than my previous submissions and it should be noted GZDoom is the best option for everything to function properly. I playtested in 4.8.2 without issue. However It's good if you state any problem to me so I can fix it right away. Also it would be cool to know what movie you're watching this Halloween? I will be watching the paranormal movie Insiduous as I really enjoy psychological horror films wish you all a good game, lastly some screenies The Domain of Darkness.rar

I feel the abrupt change in locations and abstract layout in most areas contribute to the horror, which was my aim while designing this. Thank you for all your effort to make English subtitles. Just so you're aware it was also a step out of my normal style and more to experiment, my other wads on Doomworld are not similar to this one

Talented + creative ppl @Norb @Nightmare2989 @Frost-Core@Codename_Delta @Worriedidiot @Clippy @BeeWen @BigMemka @Shadowman @Ribbiks @dannebubinga @Insane_Gazebo Also ty Norb for the s/out ;) Happy 2023 all

The 1982 remake by John Carpenter is the best version imo. Just avoid the 2011 reboot. There is a movie in the 1951 title : Thing from another world which is also worth a watch

Thank you :) Hopefully gameplay is also fun

I believe this has caused unnecessary drama on my post. I concur with you it wasn't necessary in hindsight. I'd like to give clarity on the msg I sent. "I would like opinion on my post if ammo and general gameplay was ok for you. Ty for commenting" Note: I rarely post on Doomworld. My recall of all the rules are not 100% solid. I do remember to never bump into dormant threads although I should refresh my memory so I learn not repeat mistakes It's an unconditional blessing to have folks play my wad. Thank you Rudolph + dw friends for playing

I feel discouraged from further mapping. I just hope folks enjoy my wads. The message was asking for feedback, though in hindsight I should have been patient and let Rudolph in his own time return here to post. I can learn from this today in the future. My msg just so you know was me asking for feedback on ammo and overall gameplay. As my last wad was unbalanced in that regard

Ah yes, the center platform lowers as a lift. Just press use and you can escape. As long as you run holding down shift you'll make it across
