So of all of the greatest unfinished projects I would have to say that one of the best (if not the best) would have to be Scuba Steve's Ghostbusters Doom. I've always loved what was done with it and loved the game play, but with its unfinished levels i felt bad I was unable to play the game without IDCLEV. I was wondering, now the both Action Doom's are out of the way, is their any hope for a comeback Steve? Will we see a finished version? Will some bugs be fixed? Please say yes to all of these. If your not going to do it, why not?, it seems like it would be an easy side project especially compared to AD2:UB. Anyone who has knowledge about his or would like to drop your opinion about this subject, please do.

So I am making a new map and just found out how to import new textures. I have successfully imported several PNG's and they all work, however when I am trying to make them FLATs the image goes grayscale and when I open the editor it becomes an unknown lump. It also will not appear in the level editor. I have tried this in SLumpEd and XWE. I am using Doom Builder 2. I have also double checked that they were 64x64px. Can I get some help with this please. EDIT: I tried adding the Marker F_END and now the files seem to be staying as flats in the wad, but they still do not show up in Doom Builder 2

The port is going to be for Skulltag. EDIT: I also tried putting TX_START and TX_END (with every texture between them) and it did not make them appear in flats. DOUBLE EDIT: I figured out the problem. I had accidently set the mode of Doom Builder to Doom 2 (as opposed to Skulltag (Doom in Hexen Format)). Thank you for you help.

I'm making an upcoming Death Match WAD and I was wondering, how do you make classes? Such as how its done in Cutmanmike's Ghouls vs Humans and Captian Ventris's ZDoom Wars.

No biggie

Actually I think that would be more for making maps and other LUMP files. I put this here because I'm making a WAD which is why its in WADs and Mods as it says under it "Talk about Doom levels and projects."

I would be honored. It's my dream to be immortalized in the Doom community. It was my first FPS, first computer game, and I still remember when I was 5 and my Grandpa told me "idkfa". Tell him though my only problem is I am AMAZING with detail, but I need both textures and an idea for my map. If I can get those two things it won't be any problem.

I don't know exactly. Unless we here from the rest of the team, we won't be able to do anything and this is effectively dead. Sorry to break your hopes D_GARG. But we cant make a full wad with two 1994 Mappers...

If anyone still visits this thread, sorry to say, but I have some bad news. My comp just took a dump on me and I lost all my works in progress, my videos, my flash documents, and unfortunately, my WAD files. I no longer have the map I worked on. Sorry guys.

Hey where is everyone? All I've heard from is D_GARG. Speaking of which, Garg, send me the wad so far over Rapidshare. The sooner I see your flaws, the sooner we can fix them and the sooner your a published mapper.

Dont give up man. If you hit a writers block. Just keep trucking. @ceejay I had an idea for another person: http://www.realm667.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogsection&id=8&Itemid=136&limit=20&limitstart=40

How is everyone progressing?

Send me a copy of what you have so far. I'll see what you need to improve on

I've started to come to mappers block.I need inspiration or motivation. But I will NOT give up on this project especially since i started it up again! Here is some screenies to show I'm not out yet. Tell what you think. I turned the computer around so it looks better. So what if it's backwards in the movie. (Click to enlarge) Here is the file cabinet to the right of the secretaries desk. (Click to enlarge) Finally, here is the random pipe next to said cabinet. It was green in the movie but i don't know how to recolor textures. (Click to enlarge) Please guys. I need some help thinking of what to do next. Currently the area behind Janine's desk is to complicated (I will get to it, don't worry.) I also don't want to start upstairs until I am done with downstairs.

Sorry for my inactivity. My computer broke recently and i had to send it to the shop but its working now. I can return ot working on the map.

Idea @trooper: You know how you had the blue Civil War ghost first then you had the gray one, well how bout we keep both. In the Civil War we used both blue and Grey so what we could do is make us the ghost busters travel across an old haunted war zone. Half of the map could be the confederate's base, half could be the union's base.

Welcome to the team. So Cee what do you think of my possible skin?

Understood. Sending the design doc in your PM welcome to the team.

I understand. I have been busy with schoolwork myself. EDIT: Idea, should we have at the very start the player pick up the "ECTO GOGGLES" that Cee wants, their sprite should be Ray's goggles as seen in the movie at the Sedgwick Hotel. This sprite should be easy to make by just modding the N.V.G.'s from Duke Nukem 3D DOUBLE EDIT: I couldn't help myself, I had to make this. It's Ed Spengler, Egon Spengler's nephew in Freddy Vs. Ghostbusters. Ed is even referenced in the 2009 Ghostbusters video game. I think this could be a possible skin. (Click to enlarge and remove black background) I used this picture as a base (Ed is the one on the left) (Click to enlarge)

I've managed to get a lot done. In fact I am possibly finished with Janine's desk. Here we have the computer screen. Yes it is pointed away from where she is. It's that way in the movie too. I'm not too sure if I like it that much. Please give me your feedback (Click to enlarge) I also did the 3 file cabinets behind her desk. Yes I know they are 3x3 (3x4?) in the movie but that is how big the texture is done in game. (Click to enlarge) Here is both the coffee cup (with coffee inside) and the pencil holder (with a pencil inside of it). I don't particularly like the pencil as I think it looks like a 3 year old's work, but I left it in to be cannon with the movie. (Click to enlarge) Easter Egg: I just felt we should have the desk be a bit more interactive so I made it so you can push down the "spacebar". I also wanted to make the coffee "drinkable" but it wouldn't work for some reason. (Click to enlarge) I say I'm possibly done with her desk because their is still the matter of the phone. It would be difficult to do in the level, so I was thinking we make it a "thing". If we can't make it a "thing" I will do my best to put it on the table in the level.

Just checking up on how everyone is? Any updates?

@trooper: Um...problem really....I don't actually how to do that...The only think I know about MAKING things for doom is levles. Thats it

I just got to a place where I can work on my levels. I will be keeping you posted on any thing I can. @trooper077: The latest version of Windows Media Player works. So does VLC. EDIT: Level Update: Here is the secretary's desk. It is obviously not done. (Click to enlarge) This is the keyboard. I lifted the keys part off 1 pixel so it appears as if the keys are separate. (Click to enlarge) Here is the printer/fax machine next to a device that I could not figure out in the movie. (Click to enlarge) This is her name tag. (Click to enlarge) @trooper: I have a request image I would like done. Could you make the secretary's name tag. It has to be 16 x 4 or 5 pixles. It doesn't have to actually say her name. Just be like white scribble with a gold top and bottom.

Alright, I did manage to get my aunts permission to borrow hwer GB1 DVD so i can work on it whenver i get the chance

Both congratulations and my condolences. EDIT: I just had an idea. I know I'm in charge of maps and that but I just thought, maybe we should have a secret level that has Freddy Kruger in it. I think this would be a nice tip o' the hat to the semi-popular fan movie Freddy Vs. Ghostbusters. Tell me what you think.
