Maybe try to make some of the wall less empty. Some outdoor window or something will be nicely fitting i think. 

Using UDMF

I forgot which key helps to check overlapping sectors, missing textures and such, but it's located between f5-f10 far as I can remember. 

Use F4 to find overlapped sectors or offgrid vertices

Nice to hear you are still alive :)

It's only a really short opener map.

I really like the potential in this map. I would personally change the startan texture in some places because in today era startan make unfinished feeling to map. Try to play with detailing thats all i can say. Nice work after the pause

Hey :), Thanks.

The Notification sound just gave me a heart attack nearly.

Welcome back synndra

Nice to know, that you're still alive ;)

Hope you'll be back someday, you certainly showed promise!

@Glaice I got into making vanilla doom maps. started with one and decided to make a few :)

@Marlamir I'm very persistent... xD

I see

Yes, you got it right ;) Now do that with other places and you'll be good, besides texture alignments ;)

Yeah, it's not a finished wad :) I tend to polish up my textures near the end xD

I do this while I'm mapping, so when it comes testing phase, I'll be less annoyed by texture misalignments and focus on more important tasks like gameplay adjustments. 

Pff, sissy. Real men make their sites in bare HTML, the way our grandfathers did it in '96 on their geocities page.

Mahaha xD

Real men make all their sites in Microsoft Frontpage 95 m8.

I would replace that lava flat texture into proper lavafall from cc4-tex or recoloured doom texture pack.

Alrighty.

Destiny 2 is an overall improvement on the first game for sure. they really made the grind less painful and the overall story is better (since it is there).

Honestly I would consider getting it if you liked the first one (I hated the first one but I love Destiny 2).

If you happen to be an Xbox user feel free to add me (GT: Synndra) I'd gladly party up sometime.

It's kind of an issue with me to say sorry for everything.. sorr- oops.

Sadly, no cross play, Sony won't allow it. :z although they're in talks with Microsoft right now.

I usually work on, or at least pre-plan, any setpiece/gimmick encounters first.  Then, coat the map with broad strokes of filler.  Then, I try to go over it and see if there are any places that benefit from more detailed monster use, like sometimes even arbitrarily saying "this area will have like a dense wall of zombiemen cuz I feel like it"; eventually the monster composition in the map will crisp up and have more contrast each time you go over it.  Bob Ross it up.

Filler: I like having sneaky shotgunners behind pillars and in nooks and crannies.  then fill in some imps in the center of rooms or on ledges to bait the player.  If there is an ssg in the map, revenants are good to throw in close/medium quarters; feel free to group multiples together at a time even.

Other random notes: pinkies can be mixed into fights as obstacle monsters that would otherwise be just a trivial circlestrafe, but can otherwise be just an unnecessary ammo tax if they are just incidentially sprinkled in (spectres in the dark, tho, can fuck people up gud).  Mancubus and arachnotrons seem to be good turrets in large areas or long hallways; arachnotrons can also be good off their post as prowling monsters in a larger sandbox, like in a city map

Also, halfway through the map make sure you teleport in like 17 archviles that the person has to fight when they backtrack.  This is the most important point in mapping trust me.

Chaingunners everywhere.

Thank you all very much, I've been trying to work on my maps game-play lately. this is all so very useful^^

Yeah, if you keep pushing, you'll get burnt out.  I try to take a few breaks per week, where I either play other games, map for another game (Quake), or do something entirely non-game related.

Also a really good idea to put in the hours studying good maps too.

lol the Excalibat... I like how that one looks.

Thank you kindly. It was a project for my digital arts course where I had to digitize a sketch. I still have the original horse scan and GIMP file, but I lost the physical copy.

Tons of linedefs just hurt my head.

Looks nice.

Thank you very much.
