General Rainbow Bacon Posted July 23, 2011 I want to start a mapping session which will last one month. And it's going to be something I want to do every Summer. It is called Slaughterfest. All you mappers (including myself) who love slaughtermaps will come together and spend a few weeks making nothing but slaughtermaps. Any theme, any size, but they must be focused on the heat of slaughter-style battles. Just post if you're interested and I'll pick a date to start. -DH85 THESE MAPS MUST BE BOOM COMPATIBLE! Current mappers: Me (DoomHero85) TheSpazztikOne :1 map complete Deathfactoryx Zom-B Phml :1 map complete Odd-o-matic :3 maps complete Eternal Slumber :1 map complete Eponasoft dannebubinga :1 map complete Olympus gggmork :2 maps complete Icytux ArmouredBlood Truedude - map is unfinished, if anyone wants to fix it up. go ahead Grain of Salt :1 map complete Philnemba :1 map, but incomplete. Someone may finish it if they want. Update: Slaughterfest 2011 is on idgames http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/?id=16724 0 Share this post Link to post
whiteboy567 Posted July 23, 2011 You sure got a hard-on for slaughter maps. 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted July 23, 2011 Yeah a little. But I know a lot of others do too, so I thought I'd start a yearly thing for us slaughter-folk. 0 Share this post Link to post
Spazman Posted July 23, 2011 I'm game. I'll be starting the project today. 0 Share this post Link to post
Phobus Posted July 23, 2011 I've tried my hand at making one before - might give it a go when you get started. We'll see how I'm doing for time at the time. 0 Share this post Link to post
DeathevokatioN Posted July 23, 2011 I recently started adding some slaughter in some of my personal maps, I find that slaughter gameplay kicks ass. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Rizera Posted July 23, 2011 I'm not a mapper but I'm a fan of slaughterfest maps. Count me in as a player/demo recorder :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Odd-o-matic Posted July 23, 2011 Sounds cool, count me in... What map format will it be? (Doom, Boom, UDMF) 0 Share this post Link to post
Solarn Posted July 23, 2011 I'm interested, of course. I'll see what I can come up with in a month. 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted July 23, 2011 The mapping will be one month long, but in that month you can make as many maps for this as you want. Oh yeah, any textures and music are fine too. I guess we'll start now since i've gotten a few responses :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Odd-o-matic Posted July 23, 2011 I'll start tomorrow. I guess my latest map is slaughter-ish but it's UDMF so it can't be in :(. 0 Share this post Link to post
DeathevokatioN Posted July 23, 2011 With texturing, it'd be awesome if you used the gothic dm texture set. Slaughter + ancient gothic castles = sex. 0 Share this post Link to post
phobosdeimos1 Posted July 23, 2011 I'm in, can you give us some more info? 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted July 23, 2011 Go for Deathevokation: I agree with the gothic + slaughter = sex, also add Psyren textures and Shadowcaster textures for more sex. What do you need for more info phobosdeimos1? 0 Share this post Link to post
Odd-o-matic Posted July 23, 2011 Will this be a full megawad of 32 levels? 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted July 23, 2011 If I get enough submissions. It's up to you guys how many maps there are ;) 0 Share this post Link to post
Jodwin Posted July 23, 2011 I'm in, since a month sounds like a long enough period to find some free time for mapping. 0 Share this post Link to post
Phml Posted July 23, 2011 I'll try to make something with revenants and chaingunners. Oh, yes, many revenants and chaingunners. 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted July 23, 2011 you're forgetting arch viles and pain elementals. Then you'll have the perfect "Fuck-you slaughter" 0 Share this post Link to post
phobosdeimos1 Posted July 23, 2011 DoomHero85 said:What do you need for more info phobosdeimos1? Where to send/upload submissions, any specific rules and exactly what texture packs we're meant to use and where to get them. For now, is it just sending you pms with possible maps? It'd be cool to see an example if you've made one already 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted July 23, 2011 Umm. Any texture packs or music from anywhere, midi only of course. Slaughtermaps are like Sunder, Newgothic, HR, HR2, DV, DV II. I've made a few speedmaps that are slaughter style but use the few wads i mentioned before as a benchmark for quality. I will make a longer build time one for this though. Put up your work on this thread. Make them either Doom2/Boom format. No zdoom features please. 0 Share this post Link to post
Reisal Posted July 23, 2011 I kinda made a slaughter map as it has around 400 monsters, it's called Hellbrary. 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted July 23, 2011 Make another, and I'm hoping everyone will try for a map with 1000+ monsters. In fact, let's push further, let's beat Holy Hell and go towards 20K monsters :) Am i crazy, Yes. 0 Share this post Link to post
gun_psycho Posted July 23, 2011 I actually wouldn't mind testing those maps, since I'm a fan of the slaughtermaps. (Except for the Sunder ones, those are a bit too slow-paced to be honest) 0 Share this post Link to post

You'd sure as Hell better be. i'm working on the map more. Tell ya when it's almost finished. 0 Share this post Link to post
Death Egg Posted July 24, 2011 I'm making a map that's currently at 222 monsters, and I'm considering it only 2%-3% complete. I plan on surpassing Holy Hell in monsters by at least a third. Update: I've passed 2,000 a couple minutes ago. 0 Share this post Link to post
Spazman Posted July 24, 2011 I guess my map would be a bit of a Map01 type deal. It's supposed to be modeled after earlier Doom and Doom 2 IWAD maps. nothing too detailed, yet it still looks like a good level. Here's some screenshots: (Note: this map is not yet finished. If anyone could help me by putting linedefs that lower walls, that'd be much appreciated. I'd love to put some evil traps in here.) 0 Share this post Link to post
Odd-o-matic Posted July 24, 2011 Alright, I'll start on MAP02 now. It should be done by today if I'm nt too busy with anything. 0 Share this post Link to post
