classic-doom-maps-mods

[runic breach]

no that's when they released the code

[brave hemlock]

yeah true

[mystic ibex]

Probably

But I think with enough research, I should be able to compile it just fine

Though I need to figure out what exactly is the “doomdef.o”. I already know there are the c and the header file to doomdef, but .o? I think it could be output, but I’ll have to look into it first

Oh it’s object file, and it gets created during the preprocessing phase, before the actual compiling.

Although, there are 2 different errors, one not defining rcsid, and of course, the assembler error

Something else to mention:
In the Linux doom file, I found a “To Do” text file, so I opened it up, and here what it says:

Nevermind, it was considered spamming

[royal wave]

What are you trying to accomplish?

If you're looking to integrate in some custom behaviors the engine isn't capable of, I highly recommend learning ZScript for GZDoom, or just GZDoom in general, as it's very likely capable of covering what you need. You'll be having to release any code you make as open source anyways, so might as well use an engine that's had all that hard work done for you.

[haughty flower]

....I beat sigil 1.....yahoo......I'm a fucking noob

[runic breach]

whaz the best doom modding tutorial out there

decorate and zscript

[brave hemlock]

hey you baet it, that takes dedication, we dont difficulty shame here

[halcyon loom]

hey guys! i just watched a whole bunch of youtube videos of people playing the MyHouse doom wad and im very impressed with what i saw. it inspired me to play some doom horror mods of my own. i sadly completely ruined the experience of downloading myhouse but i was hoping maybe you guys would have some good recommendations for me?

[haughty flower]

Soundless mound

It's a great horror mod inspired by silent Hill and I played it, I needed new pants

[blazing solar]

hmm, well that's unfortunate, I'm gonna have to find a simpler wad then

[halcyon loom]

Will check it out! thank you!!

[blazing solar]

uuuugh, this crap doesn't want to work

[proven dew]

What’s wrong with it???

[proven dew]

Guessing that’s in VR???

[blazing solar]

Yeah, I just can't get it to run properly

Because that's not how it's supposed to be

It should be simply install it, open it and works but it doesn't

[haughty flower]

hello everyone, im kinda new to the doom modding, can i have some recommendations?

[teal wyvern]

do you want to play mods or make mods?

[haughty flower]

play

[runic breach]

icaruslives

sort by popular, ignore brutal doom stuff

not worth playing unless it's the og with e-day

[blazing solar]

you know, I haven't tried disabling theater mode yet or seeing if it's enabled which might be the issue, I have no idea how steamvr handles non steam games

[leaden juniper]

eviternity 1 and 2, sigil 1 and 2, sunlust, unfamiliar

if you want gameplay mods, beautiful doom, brutal doom platinum, angled doom

[haughty flower]

good mods actually! but i kinda need a wad that lets me play all the campaign of l4d2?

[whole blade]

Better go make it then

[winged girder]

Can't spell "Tetanus" without "anus"......I'll take my leave

[blazing solar]

It certainly is a pain in the ass

[winged girder]

*knees are being slapped rn"

[blazing solar]

I gotta wait until the guy on GitHub sets my ass on the right path because I cannot figure out why it's not working

[winged girder]

Had to have these installed....any others that I should try besides these?

[blazing solar]

idk if you can install custom wads

[blazing solar]

that's the console version isn't it

[astral orchid]

I have a problem with enemies dying immediately after testing a map on gzdoom, the enemies work just fine if they are in the same room as the player, but if they are behind a door they die seemingly by nothing just spontaneous death, is there something I need to tag or something, I don't have on no monsters I already checked that

[hollow meadow]

All the wads available are fun so eventually try to play all if not most of them

[haughty flower]

Can someone help me? So I downloaded a gta doom mod and played it but there's no map showing instead it only shows the episodes of the original doom, what do I do? The gun are only showing up not the map

[whole blade]

that is definitely not the default behaviour. check any scripts you've set up

[astral orchid]

@whole blade I didn't set up any scripts, but I got it working by deleting all of the map and starting over

no clue what went wrong

[proven dew]

NO REST FOR THE LIVING, MY BELOVED!!!

[winged girder]

Haven't played it yet, but I installed it just in case

[proven dew]

That’s a DOOM essential that you have to experience some time!!!

[winged girder]

Will do! Currently playing TNT and it's alright....kinda boring ngl with the maps

[proven dew]

When you get around to it, just know there’s a big twist in the first mission…

Make sure you get all the secrets

[winged girder]

No guarantee but I'll try lol

What causes an invalid data error with custom music?

[astral orchid]

I have an mp3 that's 90 kb, could it be the file size?

maybe a diff file format would be more compatible

is doom but somethings not right coming to console?

[runic breach]

send

oh wait srry discord was bugging out 😭

[valid basin]

anyone know the mod name?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgZsYg35Fic

[haughty flower]

Mod idea, it is literally just a re texture but it's all neon, all black and bright colored lines replacing the textures.

Like retrowave type stuff

If someone makes that then please I need it

[cloud tangle]

change the textures yourself lmao

[haughty flower]

I don't have a system to do it

So until they make a doom mod maker on the phone or Chromebook, nah

[cloud tangle]

if a .png has the same file name as the texture in doom, it will replace it
drag and drop an image file named STONE2.png into gzdoom and see what happens
(this texture can be found easily on E2M1)

[brave hemlock]

install linux 💯💯

[haughty flower]

I did

And I tried so many methods

Nothing worked

[runic breach]

https://github.com/sirjuddington/SLADE
port it yoself

[haughty flower]

I tried that

But next time I will try again for the fifth time

[runic breach]

you tried porting it to web or android? holy shit

how far did you get

[haughty flower]

Web, I looked up on Android too but people said it was practically impossible to do it on Android so I stopped searching

[runic breach]

porting slade to web or android?

[haughty flower]

I tried downloading slade on the web from Chromebook with Linux installed, I followed instructions and bam nothing

It won't work for me

[runic breach]

ah

[haughty flower]

And right now I don't have Internet for my Chromebook, so sadly all I have right now is my phone

And deltatouch

[runic breach]

i proposed porting it to android (as in porting the source code to android and adding the necessary features to make it usable) as a joke n then u responded w "i tried that" n i was like "wtf what"

[haughty flower]

I know so little about doom mod making and sourcing I wouldn't know

[runic breach]

then it turns out you just meant trying to run it, not porting it lmao

[haughty flower]

Yeah

[runic breach]

you can't use mobile hotspot with your phone?

[haughty flower]

That is actually what I was talking about, it just ran out

[runic breach]

also imo i'd just ask a friend to borrow a laptop atp

[haughty flower]

Yesterday it downloaded doom 3 great on the switch today oh my hotspot gone

[runic breach]

chromebooks usually have ARM chips, right? if you could get an ARM linux distro running i think you might have a shot

oop wait never mind i have zero knowledge on ARM chips, most of them don't have bootloaders it seems, setting up a linux distro ob a chromebook must be a headache

[haughty flower]

I just give up

[cloud tangle]

slade supremacy 💪💪

also yall should i drop some maps ive been working on?

i havent in a while

[runic breach]

yes

[cloud tangle]

according to oscult this is the best one ive made yet and i agree

UV will kick your ass
HMP is eh

oh also marb.wad is map03, because it was originally gonna be the 3rd map in florbeendorb

then i said "fuck it"

[haughty flower]

Im playing this on my phone on LZdoom and it ain't that bad for me

[cloud tangle]

oh and also, since i cant really use discord consistently, i post spoilers for maps on my twitter
(not a promotion mods dont ban me)
i should also mention i am FUCKING WEIRD so you have to endure that to get sweet doom behind the scenes

and if you ask i can send you the files there
considering making a google drive to just put them there

[valid basin]

don't you just love your topic/question getting overwritten by another one

[haughty flower]

Oh sorry, uh, I don't know the mod...

[valid basin]

oh alright

sorry if that sounded aggressive or rude

the mods are in the description

[haughty flower]

Where'd you find a synthwave music mod for Doom?

Brb

Synthwave Music Randomizer for Doom 1 & 2 (Mark IV style, fucka) addon - Mod DB https://www.moddb.com/mods/lithium-heat/addons/synthdoom4

[haughty flower]

Nice, thanks.

[haughty flower]

It has some great music, use it well

[trail jolt]

just thought id throw this on here. i made a map in three days (originally meant for one day, but family troubles got in the way). aptly named "origwad Redux", its part of a series of maps I plan on making where I take classic maps, their motifs and key aspects and recycle them into a new map. origwad was a 1994 WAD and is well known as the first user made map ever published, so i chose it as my first. heres the download. it should work on vanilla or any sourceport; i tested it using GZDOOM and DSDA-DOOM, and I found GZDOOM to be a better experience. A bit late, but merry christmas.

[cloud tangle]

hey that was the same idea i had for florbeendorb! nice!
i then got carried away with map04

[dusty heron]

My 11 map alpha

Freedoom 2 is required to play it, but i wish for (constructive) criticisms

It is my first megawad after all

I think my stuff is sub-par but lemme know what you guys think

[rugged mantle]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/na60505

[reef linden]

I accidentally hit the exit button in the first map before grabbing any keys or going into other rooms, probably put an exit sign/door
I liked the 2nd mission, idk I just started it

[dusty heron]

Good idea, yeah, thank you for the feedback!

Did i make the music good?

[reef linden]

yeah it's actually really nice I didn't notice

oh and the secret in the 3rd mission "punch em to death" what does the item actually do?

[dusty heron]

Punch the trilobite lol

The trilobite is Freedoom's caco

[reef linden]

at the loop part of the music for the 3rd level, the background droning noise gets repeated way too much and it kinda hurt my ears

yeah I never got far into freedoom to get through all the demons

[dusty heron]

Oh-

[reef linden]

tbf I was sitting in the menu for a while

[dusty heron]

What soundfont you use?

[reef linden]

I'm using gzdoom default

[dusty heron]

Ohhhh thats probably the problem

I normally use Arachno/weeds/ sc-55 emperorgrieferus

I'll see what i can do tho

[dusty heron]

Oh you like the main menu tune?

Also i did add custom weapons and enemies

[reef linden]

no like the pause menu

[dusty heron]

Ooooh

[reef linden]

for mission 3 while I was typing

the music is good don't worry

[dusty heron]

Oh phew

[reef linden]

the fourth level has way more ammo and health than I needed but I'm playing on an easy difficulty and I probably missed all the secrets
generally I suck at Doom though

my eyes are hurting from playing Eternal all day though, so I'll give it a break

[dusty heron]

Alrighty 👍

Map04 is the supplies processing, so an influx of ammo would make sense

[reef linden]

oh I was kinda flying through lmao

[rugged mantle]

I really like the SMG weapon, and the music is really nice. The levels do seem somewhat flat, but as long as they're fun (which they are) that doesn't matter much.

[dusty heron]

Lol

[dusty heron]

Yay! And ye, i'm trying to work on decoration and verticality, also because when i start making doom: Escaping torment, i wanna make it really fun to play through

[dusty heron]

For this also i basically doubled freedoom's weapons

[rugged mantle]

Wow, I don’t even know how to do that. Did you use UDB?

[dusty heron]

UDB for maps
Slade for adding custom stuff (and coding the zdoom mapinfo)

Fl studio 21 for making the midi

And

Realm667 to get custom stuff.

[rugged mantle]

Ok, thanks! I’ll make sure to check all of those out

[dusty heron]

👍

Also

I found this from Zlimbratski's channel! Nice!

[light prism]

cool cool

[rugged mantle]

Looks like my kinda game

[light prism]

well theres lots of extra gamemode stuff to make it extra challenging now, and optimizations so it should run better on older machines

it also has controller support and runs on steam deck

[dusty heron]

Does it run on delta touch? Sorry if thats a dumb question

[rugged mantle]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/na60505

I’m looking for feedback on this map, as it is the first one I’ve released

If anyone’s willing to play this late

[light prism]

it doesn't run on delta touch as far as I know

it requires gzdoom 4.11 or above and I dont know if they're up there yet

[dusty heron]

On my delta touch it says 4.11.3

[haughty flower]

idk if doom 3 is considered clasic but i found a cyberpunk 2077 map for it
(https://www.nexusmods.com/doom3/mods/1676)

[dusty heron]

It is fun so far, however it does suffer from a problem that mine does - big empty flat spaces.

*And note: please add more ammo)

[light prism]

you could give it a try then i guess

i havent tested

[dusty heron]

👍

[rugged mantle]

Thanks! I wasn’t sure if the lack of ammo would be a problem or not, but I’ll add some more

[dusty heron]

I'll let you know once i do

[dusty heron]

That and a bit more health, and maybe some pillars or otger decoration in the indoor areas

[dusty heron]

Also is it on moddb?

[rugged mantle]

Got it! I plan on making it into a whole episode, so I’ll keep that in mind for the other maps as well.

[dusty heron]

Cool thing, man!

[light prism]

no, but you can pull the ipk3 from the steam installation

[zenith merlin]

hey i am trying to get the memento mori wad to play together with its music which is a separate wad, how do i do that ?

[dusty heron]

Oh! Alrighty!

[bitter flame]

Will there be a non steam version releasing? Maybe a gog release?

[whole blade]

you have to load both of the files

[trail jolt]

Just getting started with my next Redux map; my Redux series is where I take old WADs, their motifs and key aspects and recycle them into something new. This time, I'm taking the 1994 WAD "Aarrghh!". So far, I've just about finished the first room of E1M1 (mine is on the left, with the original on the right).

Dunno why i shared this

just felt like it i guess

[trail jolt]

just added it to my wishlist. hope development goes well! have a good day

[zenith merlin]

how however ?

[rugged mantle]

I'm looking for feedback for this map I made

[whole blade]

What port are you using

Gzdoom you can just select all files you want to load and drag them onto gzdoom.exe

[cloud tangle]

yo this looks sick

i may take some motifs of that design for a future map ;3

[teal wyvern]

this is actually a great idea

it's like black mesa but for doom wads

[rugged mantle]

I just wishlisted it and downloaded the demo; it looks awesome!

[light prism]

thankies

i recommend a path of atonement playthrough and then a path of the dawnbreaker playthrough with mutators

[haughty flower]

Just played it, here's my thoughts
-Areas are too big, why not make smaller maps? sometimes less is more, and I skipped through most of the monsters, not sure if this is just your style for mapping yhough
-Theres not enough ammo or health, and for some cases the rocket launcher and some ammo pickups could've been easily accidentally avoided due to the map being large, also the scarce amount of ammo and health led me more to skipping past all the monsters, which is kind of boring
-Also few little tips, try adding more detail to your maps, like pillars on the corners or terminals, and try playing with heights more, make stairs that lead to an elevated room or something, and use border textures like doorstop,the silver support texture, or metal to create good transitions to an area whenever you use different textures

So far it was an interesting map though, I like how it went from a base to a hellish cave, I'm assuming you're an early mapper so you did a decent job here🙂👍

[rugged mantle]

Thank you! I’ve been told that there wasn’t enough ammo and health, so I added some more pickups around the map, but I could add some more. I tried to balance out the larger areas with some tight corridors, but I’ll keep that in mind for future maps. And yes, this is my first map.

[rugged mantle]

Oh, and about the border textures-is there any place in particular where I forgot to use them? I thought I used them well enough.

[haughty flower]

You did use them well enough, but there were definitely some places where you forgot to use them, no worries!, the fourth pic with the green walls is also just a recommendation, adding borders even without a change of wall textures could also work too! I should've also said that.😅

[hexed jungle]

I just played the map, I agree with pretty much everything here although I didn't really have ammo issues.

One thing to note is that the yellow door only opens once from the outside so if you don't go through before it closes you have to noclip to finish the map.

Also this map would greatly benefit from some teleport or closet traps, you could try adding one of those to the room with the pillars and move some of the random monsters to a closet or teleport room that the player trips when they get the yellow key. Would easily make that room a memorable highlight along with the end cave.

[cloud tangle]

teleporting in monsters is peak map design
i love it

i like to think that teleporting in monsters is kind of my thing, but when i look at my maps i hardly do ti

i guess i like the concept more than the execution, because it is sometimes so tedious

[trail jolt]

just wanted to give a thanks to filbert and fishy. they're some of the first people to ever compliment one of my maps. it might be a bit of an over-reaction, but im new to mapping and it means a lot, especially for my motivation to keep going! thanks.

ill continue to post updates here as i keep mapping too. and ill post the finished map.

[trail jolt]

@light prism Just wanted to say that I love the game you and everyone else has made. I just got done playing it on the hardest difficulty and thouroughly enjoyed it. I do think, however, that "comboing" with the Hammer could be tweaked a little - I feel it should work so that the more the player combos with it, the stronger it becomes until they stop comboing. This rewards skill with power, while at the moment the combo mechanic is just "Fire, then Alt Fire". But I'm just some British schmuck who knows nothing about game design. Overall, great demo, and I cannot wait for the full release.

[light prism]

there is actually an upgrade that does exactly what you said

though it caps at 35% damage boost

btw the combo mechanic is not that, there are heaaaps of combinations - press f1 for contextual help to see a few

also thankies 😛

the upgrades are randomized so you may not have seen that one come up

i will still probably end up adding some more 'special moves' for it though

like a 'drill attack' style thing and some kind of whirlwind uppercut

the idea of randomization was to force you to have a roguelike-ish build, it still obviously gives you a branching choice each time, but you can lean towards specialization

[trail jolt]

ah i see. thats really cool! ill be sure to replay it a couple times. i really hope the game gets more recognition, especially for a modding scene to start. you bet ill be making some maps for it!

[light prism]

i think the endgame is to allow the player to not only pick the skills but upgrade them

atm the code logic isnt there but i can eventually implement (there are 32 hammer skills alone so might take a while)

give it a try with the mutators, i did try and make those change up the gameplay quite a lot

like barrels of fun and achilles heel change up target prioritization a lot for dawnbreaker path

[trail jolt]

thats cool. ill check out some mutators then.

[light prism]

thanks for playing!

you could help us out with a positive steam review 😛

[trail jolt]

yeah. ill put one up once i play a little more.

[heavy solstice]

hi

im trying to do this

hxxps://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/129045-how-to-enable-the-wide-classic-bar/i

[jolly tusk]

ugh

Alright can anyone explain to me this new system of triggers and panels to activate doors and such?

For some reason, I'm putting them on 1 and switching the panel to do 1, but apparently that's just not how it works anymore

It seems like they tried to simplified it and screwed that concept up royally

[cloud tangle]

aw, thanks! i always try to be encouraging and supportive. i love doom mapping and want everybody to enjoy it! whats the point in putting someone down for being a beginner? they will learn, they will grow. calling their map just "bad" isnt helpful, and may not make someone want to map anymore. keep mapping, and keep improving
💚

(and my secret agenda is to make furries get less bad of a rep by just being a normal person lmao)

[jolly tusk]

you mind helping a fellow furry out?

[dusty heron]

Could you test Horizon's Vengeance? if not thats ok.

[dusty heron]

Here it is

If you do, it requires the freedoom 2 iwad

[cloud tangle]

alright, sure!

[cloud tangle]

yeah, what do you need help with?

[jolly tusk]

Okay

[cloud tangle]

oh nvm i see your previous message
i map in slade, i believe there are differences

[jolly tusk]

So, they changed the panel press mechanism when you trigger an action to happen, like a remote location for a door or several doors

my question is where in the hell are those triggers for labeled 1?

do I need to switch it to be labeled 1 with the rest of the doors/actions labeled for 1 or is there a place that TELLS YOU which it opens when triggered?

[cloud tangle]

what do you mean for labeled 1?
like sector tag 1?

[jolly tusk]

yes the tags

[dusty heron]

Ty :>

[cloud tangle]

ohhh yeah, so the first arg for a line special is sector tag, just set that to 1

[cloud tangle]

@jolly tusk

[cloud tangle]

the maps youve made show great ideas but, to be honest, poor execution
they were still fun romps around!! my favorite two maps were the coliseum and the mountaij one

[dusty heron]

Yay!

Yeah, im working on fixing weapons and overall balance and aesthetic

The boss also will be changed

[cloud tangle]

also, i dont know how to describe it, but youre making sectors wrong lol

ill grab a screenshot of what i mean soon

[cloud tangle]

moreover, youre doing sectors wrong
you can delete the sector in the middle of something, instead of raising the floor or lowering the ceiling to fill the space

[flat python]

https://youtu.be/XahFPTH08v8?si=NQCIFwp0kpQS76mx

[dusty heron]

Oooohhhhh

I thought that would mess things up

[dusty heron]

So what do you mean on the first one, the rooms?

[cloud tangle]

so, for some walls, you raised the floor to the ceiling, instead, delete that sector, it will create a negative space in that sector

[dusty heron]

Oooooohhhh ok!

[cloud tangle]

also i like the idea youve got for that one with the big open area, with the grey ash walls and such
i may recreate it

also whats that mod youre using for that was? its a fun one :3

[dusty heron]

Which one in which map?

[cloud tangle]

i believe map03

lemme check

[dusty heron]

👍

[cloud tangle]

yeah, map03
its a fun one, but very short

[dusty heron]

Yeah.....sorry bout that, i just didnt have much ideas for that one

[cloud tangle]

no, dont be sorry, it gave me inspiration

i feel your biggest limiting factor is a lack of knowledge of the engine, or how to map
your ideas are great

[dusty heron]

Yeah...

If we could be friends and dm, i could possibly learn?

From you?

Because i feel like yt tutorials are limiting ;-;

[cloud tangle]

i am by no means good at mapping, but im always happy to help! :3c

[dusty heron]

Yay : D

[trail jolt]

one thing i used to do is just watch other people map, such as DavidXNewton's RAMP tutorials. Another good one is DOOMKid's "Vanilla Mapping 'Stream'".

Even if you watch them in the background, they can still be helpful and provide inspiration.

You'll get the hang of the engine real quick, don't worry.

[trail jolt]

Just played the first couple maps, and they're pretty good! Your work is exactly what I'm looking for: new, but not bad. Just though I'd ask here, would you be fine if I wrote a review on my DOOM Website for it? It's fairly new, but I aim to review various DOOM WADs like yours.

[trail jolt]

Also, if thats a yes, can you tell me a bit about the custom enemies and weapons? Sure, i could look into SLADE 3 myself, but I don't understand Decorate or anything else. Thanks in advance.

[cloud tangle]

i read eevee's tutorial on slade
figured out how to do real basic stuff
never watched a tutorial
slade is far from intuitive

[trail jolt]

yeah, i used to use SLADE until I found UDB to be much more user friendly

now i use SLADE just to make WAD files

[cloud tangle]

wait does udb not let you edit wad files?

[hexed jungle]

Not to the degree that Slade does as far as I'm aware

Like I don't think you can use it to put custom stuff in the files, it's purely for mapping from what I have seen.

[cloud tangle]

oh man

jeez, im stuck with slade then

[hexed jungle]

Whatever helps bring your ideas into reality is good

I still haven't tried to use Slade to map

Idk if I ever will, UDB is pretty slick

[woeful hinge]

If you prefer compatibility, choose Slade, Otherwise UDB, or anything else.

[cloud tangle]

i chose what worked on my school computer :3c

[hexed jungle]

I'm curious, what do you mean when you say compatibility?

[woeful hinge]

Slade is compatible with Strife, Heretic, Hexen, lots of games on the good old idtech1 engine.

[hexed jungle]

Is UDB not? I've seen Hexen format but I haven't looked to see if strife or other games are.

[woeful hinge]

As I've read through, you can make maps for the Build engine, even for the first Quake also. UDB only works for doom engine.

[hexed jungle]

Weird, I had no idea Slade supported Build engine stuff. That's pretty cool.

[woeful hinge]

In the wiki you can find out more, have fun with it.

[dusty heron]

Ye! Though by release, the game will be much much better

[trail jolt]

alright, if i can get my site to damn work, then ill get started

[dusty heron]

Woohoo! ^^

Like the weapons are too strong so i nerfed em a bit

[brave hemlock]

this is so cool wtf

How do I edit the main menu with a personalized title

And how do I retexture the HUD and enemies?

I want to make a kinda total conversion and I want to retexture the base doom enemies, but I don't know how to do it

[shut crane]

Like this

[haughty flower]

With SLADE, you can import your main menu picture(It's aspect ratio should be 320x200) and rename the picture into TITLEPIC,
for the personalized title, you can import your photo(It's aspect ratio should be 125x60) and rename it into M_DOOM
IMPORTANT: be sure to convert them all to doom gfx pallete after

For retexturing the hud and enemies

HUD:
Import your photo as usual (It's aspect ratio should be 320x32) and rename it to STBAR, and you also need a separate photo for the ARMS section, the aspect ratio for this should be 40x32, and rename this photo to STARMS

For enemies you can import your sprites and then rename these sprites to the names of whatever enemy your trying to replace (For example, "POSS" is the zombieman's sprite name, you can look up the sprite names in the doom wiki or just view the doom2 iwad with slade for the sprite names 🙂👍)

[shut crane]

Thanks...I would like to like save the message in case I need it afterwards

[shut crane]

I must do the sprite thing on the map wad or the Doom1/Doom2 wad?

[shut crane]

Which programs would you recommend me for like downscale the photos resolution?

[haughty flower]

The sprite thing can be done on your own custom wad, you shouldn't mess with the doom 1 or doom 2 wads at all🙂👍

Edit:
What I mean by this is don't edit anything in the doom1 doom2 wads, just simply check it out for the doom monster sprite names 🙂

[haughty flower]

I mostly edit my sprites on my mobile phone so I use Pixellab, there's an option there to change the aspect ratio which is very useful

[trail jolt]

Okay, I need just a little feedback. What do you guys think of this:

I'm trying to make a sewer section for my "Aarrghh! Redux" maps. but I suck at it. Just wanted to know if it looks okay. Thanks!

[haughty flower]

Looks nice 🙂, I find the toxic liquid also being a ceiling texture a bit odd but the broken wooden boards are cool, I've never seen another wad do something like that😁

[trail jolt]

i made the ceiling toxic too just as some variation in the ceiling

i was mostly panicking about the walls and whether they look fine or not

[haughty flower]

Now I'm starting on another mod now.

Unfamiliar Trilogy

[trail jolt]

I know I'm asking this again, but does this look okay?

My anxiety is probably just playing up but I'm all panicky that what I'm making is bad or amateurish.

If you need another angle of the room to judge just ask.

[cloud tangle]

yo that actually looks really cool

id set those radiation signs back into its own sector, and raise it's light level, just to emphasize them a little bit

though, im a little against using that floor texture on the bottom bit, but thats just me

[trail jolt]

thanks

[bitter flame]

Looks good

[dusty heron]

What TCs do you guys recommend?

A fun one im playing

Brutal Wolfenstein: Über Hero Edition

[trail jolt]

Brutal Wolfenstein is great

I played it a while back and still regularly check it out.

[runic breach]

better than brutal doom tbh

[trail jolt]

absolutely.

[runic breach]

we should rank all the brutal mods, like brutal wolfenstein, brutal quake, brutal half-life, etc.

[trail jolt]

i don't hate Brutal DOOM (in fact I sometimes play it myself) but Brutal Wolfenstein I find is my prefered one

havent tried brutal quake or brutal half-life, but I probably will soon

[cloud tangle]

brutal doom is fun, but its not for me

the weapons testing map is really cool tho

i played that more than the mod
brutal doom is also really laggy on 4gb of ram

[teal wyvern]

Playstation Doom

[dusty heron]

Brutal quake exists???? Or are you thinking of Quake 1.5?

[dusty heron]

Ooh thats a good one!

Is siren any good?

[teal wyvern]

No clue

[runic breach]

brutal quake exists, but it's a mod for doom 2, but yes i was thinking of quake 1.5, some friends jokingly referred to it as brutal quake 😅

[dusty heron]

Oh lmao

Can you send a link to brutal quake?

[cloud tangle]

sorry guys i have not done literally anything in terms of mapping besides a low effort testing map
ive opened slade like 5 times, made a new map, slapped down some sectors and then closed slade without saving
fortnite is fun on the other hand

[gray glen]

So I'm making a wad and I made a revolver for it and I want it to be a starting weapon, but whenever I try doing that I have to type idea to get it, does anyone know how to do this?

idfa not idea, autocorrect smokin

[cloud tangle]

id just put it down as a pickup, and a linedef that runs the command
take pistol

though thats scripting and idk how to do that

[dusty heron]

In slade, for the DECORATE, make it to where

ACTOR Revolver: pistol replaces pistol [custom ID]

[gray glen]

Whats the custom id?

[dusty heron]

Any thing from 15000-30000

I think

[gray glen]

Ok

Im doing it right now

[dusty heron]

👍

[gray glen]

It didnt work

[dusty heron]

Ok maybe you dont need the id

[gray glen]

Even without the id it doesnt work

Wait hold on

Nevermind

[dusty heron]

Hm?

[gray glen]

I tried doing player replaces player instead of weapon replaces player but it still didnt work

Pistol not player

[dusty heron]

Hmmmm.

Can i see line 11?

[gray glen]

Sorry for the wait i was eating

[cloud tangle]

also, why not just change the stats of the pistol and change the sprite???

i feel like thatd be waaaay easier
but i dont mod, i map :3c

[gray glen]

You cant change the stats of the pistol unless you have whackedED4 which is very limited.

[dusty heron]

Try pistol replaces pistol instead of weapon replaces pistol

[gray glen]

thats what I did

[gray glen]

right here

its still didnt work tho

[royal wave]

You can definitely change the stats of the pistol just fine if you’re using decorate

[cloud tangle]

see, this is where other people help here
i know mapping and mapping only

[dusty heron]

I am stumped

[dusty heron]

OOOOOOH on line 3, change "revolver" to "pistol"

Since the revolver replaces the pistol.

[dusty heron]

@gray glen (sorry for ping)

[gray glen]

No its fine

[dusty heron]

Yep i think i found your problem

[gray glen]

Ok thank you

Ive also added a shotgun toit

Ill post the wad in a bit

I tried it but it still didn't work, which sucks but I'm still posting the wad so that you could open it and see what the problem is

[grave flare]

Hey guys can I post our doomworld thread here?

[runic breach]

go ahead :3

What do you think about this map?

[cloud tangle]

i will play this sometime soon 👍

[azure lily]

Okay, so I've been planning a wad for a few months on and off - I don't have massive ambitions, not looking to make a Sunder, but I have like 6 or 7 map ideas in mind

Big thing though is I want custom text before and after each level, edited monster HPs and for one level to have some custom enemies - am I forced to go to GZDoom for this, or can I manage that in a dsda-compatible source port?

[dusty heron]

You can.

I think it would just be a different procedure.

[shut crane]

I was thinking about creating a Metropolitan Themed wad for Doom

I'm gonna try with going trough doom cutes and a lot of silent teleporters

And maybe using some custom monsters and 3d floors

I want to do something like Duke Nukem/Blood

[cloud tangle]

BLACKWALL2 (i think thats the texture) is your friend, use it generously

[trail jolt]

Hey everyone. Currently getting ready to get started on my first largish scale mapping project after many small maps, and need some input. When it comes to mapping, I don't want to be just another ribbicks or skillsaw (but much worse), I want to reach out to the niche amount of people who want DOOM maps themed around other games (me included). So, I want to ask anyone thats here to give me there suggestion for what game I should do. Preferably, the game should have graphics that translate well into DOOM textures - so stuff like pixelated graphics. This doesn't just have to be classic games either, newer games like Minecraft can be offered too. Thanks in advance!

[cloud tangle]

Terraria would be cool, and you can swap out the DOOM chaingun sprite for the Terraria chaingun sprite

[trail jolt]

I might give it a try. So far, I've planned making a mapset using the original SMB Textures, and then a series of maps using the Minecraft textures, but each map is themed around the next update (e.g. there will be a map for 1.0, then 1.1 etc.) But yeah, I'll take a look at Terraria's sprites and see what I can do.

[gray glen]

I know this isnt a game, but a beserk doom mod would be really cooland I have yet to see someone do it.

[trail jolt]

unfortunately, i havent read it yet. additionally, it would require a lot of spritework that im not good at

[gray glen]

Then I think I might make one, im also not very good at sprites

[gray glen]

My last wad is a goodexample of my sprites

[dusty heron]

Quake 2?
Quake 4?
Skyrim?

Quake 2 is one of my personal favourite games of all time

Is there anyone willing to make a big cyber black dragon? Kinda like the cyberdemon but a dragon-alien

Sprites i mean

Back to map making, time to get Episode 5 in a playable state

[cloud tangle]

yo guys drop some map ideas
all i know is i want to have a connected, slick map like map10

[dusty heron]

Hmmm

A sewer/Tunnel system?

[cloud tangle]

civvie11 moment

[hexed jungle]

Fueling Base mixed with Containment Area

Funny enough Containment Area is map 10 in doom 1 as well I think

[cloud tangle]

lemme boot this up rq

map 11, forgot the secret level!

also hell yes

thank you oscult for another banger reccomendation 👍

[hexed jungle]

I always forget about the secret maps in doom 1

Except for the first episode, but that's because the path to the exit is really in your face

[cloud tangle]

yeah i didnt know that they had secret levels, i literally just thought "oh its just a quicker exit for speedrunners"

[gray glen]

Same

2. doomcute or nah (probably nah because i dont usually do that)
3. fun :3

[dusty heron]

Hmmm

Abandoned bunker?

That sounds like something i'd do lmao

[cloud tangle]

concrete textures, cramped hallways, ooh all very good ideas

[brave hemlock]

dark forest with those big dead tree props and walls opening to enemies inside

[trail jolt]

As much as id love to do Quake 4 or Skyrim, I probably wont be able to due to them using textures too large. Perhaps Quake 2 is best, since I like the aestetic in that game.

[gray glen]

I think someone has made the first level of quake 2 in doom, so maybe you could expand on that, or try to do it from scratch

[trail jolt]

yeah. maybe. i tend to just make original maps with another games textures, but i can try making another map one-to-one

[gray glen]

Thats fine, thats still cool

Like a doom expansion for quake 2

[trail jolt]

yeah, kinda

[gray glen]

Ye

[trail jolt]

like how before i made about 5 maps using only textures from the original SMB. there still original maps, i just use textures from other games. a bit like the megawad "Super Mayhem 17", but not as good

[gray glen]

Yeah tottaly

Hi everyoone, I'm looking for a mod for Doom 2/Ultimate that adds mechanic from the recent doom games (get health when using chainsaw...) I saw that there are plenty mods doing this. Which one should I pick ?

[shut crane]

Guys I try to play mods with Freedoom on mobile, but the app crashes when I try to play a mod

[runic breach]

freedoom is ancient

it can't run most mods i believe

[dusty heron]

I'm trying to add two separate teleporters to my map, the first works but the second isn't

[shut crane]

Is the line of the activation of the teleport towards the player?

[shut crane]

What are your favorite types of mods? Mine are the map ones and total conversions

[dusty heron]

Yes

Everything is the same as the first one THAT. WORKS. but the second doesn't wanna cooperate

[shut crane]

Try looking if you put the right numbers of the sector tag (for the destination) and tag of the linedef (teleport)

[dusty heron]

Oooooooh!!

The tag on linedefs were 0 but the sector of destination is 11

Fixed it but it's STILL not working

I am about to rip my hair out bruh lmao

[brave hemlock]

remove them and make them again always works

[dusty heron]

Hmmm

[cloud tangle]

vanilla

lmao

also do we consider just maps mods?

[brave hemlock]

megawads are the best

[brave hemlock]

map pack i guess idk technically it is a mod

[cloud tangle]

[glossy spade]

Hi I just finished my very first WAD, but when I drag it in GZdoom and play it, it's Doom 2's map1 that shows up, how to fix this ?

Also on which website should I post it ?

[brave hemlock]

show me your wad directory

[glossy spade]

I searched online, do I have to replace doom 2's first map ? How do I do this ?

[bitter flame]

In your map info file have clearepisodes before your levels start

[brave hemlock]

no i meant like the files inside of the wad lol

sorry should've specified

[glossy spade]

Wdym the files inside of the wad ?

Nevermind I think it's good

[lusty dove]

A wad is actually a special type of archive format (like a .zip file) and you can view all of the files inside using a program called SLADE

[glossy spade]

Oh okay

I solved my issue by just renaming my level to map 01 and it worked

But Slade could handle this

[lusty dove]

Yeah it has to be called MAP01

[shut crane]

I mean, if you think about something there is its Doom Mod Counterpart

Should I put a MP3 file for the music?

Or is it better a MIDI?

[brave hemlock]

well uh these are two completely different audio formats

if youve made a piece of midi music you should just put the midi into the game

but if you want to use a mp3 you cant really make it into a midi without it sounding horrifying

[shut crane]

Thanks, I know that there are free to use midis online but for what I want to make I think it's better going for MP3

I want to use "chill" music

Something atmospheric in Quake Style but not Horror

[brave hemlock]

midi will run in the doom engine if you convert it to mus (or even without converting i think im not 100% sure) but mp3 will require gzdoom

[haughty flower]

any mods worth playing? I finished brutal and my house

[brave hemlock]

scroll around in #classic-doom and youll see some people recommending mods

[trail jolt]

Also, check out the "WAD Progression for Skill Improvement" page if you want to check out new WADs. Most of them are popular WADs that'll also help you improve. I would link the page, but, for some reason, I can't open DOOMWorld.

[brave hemlock]

is it this one? https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/107015-wad-progression-for-skill-improvement/

[trail jolt]

Ja

[brave hemlock]

oh yeah ive seen it too, gotta play thru it some time

[trail jolt]

Okay, now it lets me go on DOOMWorld. Bout time

Lots of great WADs on there.

[brave hemlock]

yup

[shut crane]

Play some cool wads like Hell Ground, Sunlust, Grove and Spawn Cell

[haughty flower]

Il try those out thanks

[shut crane]

And if you want something chill there are City Of Doom and Oceanside

[onyx scroll]

mp3 does work in other sourceports actually

DSDA-Doom and Woof are two that I know of

[brave hemlock]

oh yeah i just knew gzdoom did i dont really know many sp's

[haughty flower]

Hello

[half field]

Would it be possible for somebody to help me modify my Wadsmoosh to create a even bigger Doom complete pack?

I Have everything.

The Xbox Levels (Betray & Sewers, fixed and able to work), Sigil 1 and 2 (paid versions), Doom 1, doom 2, The master levels, No Rest For The Living, TNT, Plutonia, e1m4b, e1m8b, freedoom 1, freedoom 2, doom 64, The Lost Episode, Lost Episode Fix, PSX Levels, DTWID, D2TWID, Thyinterpic, Doom Combined (Gzdoom), Doom_Complete, Doom_Complete_Extra, DoomCompletePlus_Romero_patch, Fullrun, Wadsmoosh_romero_e1, Work Of The Masters Deluxe Edition, mladdon, ZDMLmenu, and more

I also have the other doom Iwads, Hexen, Heretic, Strife, Chex1, Chex2, Chex3, Hacx, SVE, Voices, and Wolf3D

My intention is to create a very long, One Episode Super-campaign that is the entire doom story

but longer, and overhauled.

Replacing levels like e1m4 with e1m4b and e1m8 with e1m8b

and replacing many of the other levels with non-official remakes if possible. Extending the levels making them longer and harder (if possible)

I'd then also like to add some pk3's and pwads to Doomrunner or ZDL into Gzdoom, such as Smoothdoom, and some other stuff to give it a more "modern" coat of paint while still retaining its classic charm

if anyone knows how i can do this, please help me

[young iris]

Who has the files for my house?

[proven dew]

I can send you them

[young iris]

Really?

[proven dew]

just the PK3 file???

[young iris]

Yea

[proven dew]

ill dm you it

[young iris]

Ok

Thx

[proven dew]

are we allowed to post files in the server???

not sure how strict the rules are tbh

[young iris]

Idk

[runic breach]

Does anyone know a console command or a mod to make Brutal Doom have infinite ammo?

Brutal Doom is extremely fun, but i just have one problem: The Ammo. Whenever i want to exclusively use my ssg or combat sg, it always runs out of ammo just like Eternal. Does anyone know how to increase the limit of my ammo in BD?

[lost flame]

go into the console and type "sv_infiniteammo 1"

that works with standard doom at least, not 100% sure about BD though

[haughty flower]

alr thx

[haughty flower]

Ok i have tested it and i will confirm that sv_infiniteammo 1 doesn't work with BD. i did test "give ammo" and it gave me the maximum ammo for every gun, yet doesn't increase the ammo limit.

[lost flame]

fug

you'll just have to tear the PK3 open and mess with the ammo values yourself

[haughty flower]

How?

(I play on mac lol)

[lost flame]

you're better off looking that up yourself

it isnt very easy to explain over discord

[haughty flower]

😭👍 thx tho

[lost flame]

lel

its not too difficult

[haughty flower]

oh thk god

i thought i had to compress and expand and all that bs

[haughty flower]

oh btw is there a video link to this?

i guess just look up "doom decorate weapom tutorial"

actually the chaingunner is basically like the cafe guy

im making some lab megawad but idk if theyd have a cafe after the control room

[brave hemlock]

cant he just be some scientist working at something involving liquids

doesnt have to be a cafeteria

[shut crane]

Is the sprite diverse or am I tripping?

[ornate knoll]

wdym diverse

[shut crane]

I was thinking the sprite was different

[ornate knoll]

[shut crane]

Is it or I remember bad?

[brave hemlock]

i also remember that the chaingunner had a chaingun as one of his hands

and just pointed it at you

[ornate knoll]

i think that was just the shooting animation

the bullet chain hand

[shut crane]

I hate them so much that I never put them in any of my maps

[shut crane]

https://tenor.com/view/chaingunner-doom-gif-20649870

I still see something off about that chaingunner...

[ornate knoll]

yea ur right

the gun is abit differeny

i think its just bc im using brutal doom so the monsters prob had redesigns

or its just visual mode acting like that

[shut crane]

What kind of strange liminal thing am I watching, great idea btw

[brittle lily]

want to know how i made the items/ monsters spawn in random places

[brave hemlock]

lets go, randoom

[brittle lily]

even if noone asked, im still going to explain.
At the start, there is a invisible actor that spams the wander state at a very high speed, and after it runs out of wander frames, it goes to its death state, and dies. During the death state, it runs "A_SpawnItemEX", this refers to an actor that is a random item spawner, (can be used to spawn any actor)

To make it spawn multiple types of actors at random, i used code from the allready existing actor "RandomSpawner", for the monsters, i had it so that when the wandering actor dies, it runs A_SpawnItemEX which spawns the actor i made called "MonsterPool"

This is monster pool in the decorate

actor MonsterPool : RandomSpawner 964
{
DropItem "Demon"
DropItem "DoomImp"
DropItem "ChaingunGuy"
DropItem "ZombieMan"
DropItem "DoubleSpawnMonster"
DropItem "NAN"
}

Each "DropItem" is one of the possible items/monsters it will spawn when the actor "MonsterPool" is spawned.

DoubleSpawnMonster is an actor i made, that does the same thing as the invisible wandering one, but instead spawns two monsters.

item NAN, is an actor that instantly kills itself and is invisible, so no monster spawns.

.

In summary, you can have random thing, in random place.

or random thing, in specific place.

[brittle lily]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/816379286852337675/1194357368134324306/Project_1.mp4?ex=65b00efa&is=659d99fa&hm=5b9979f8244a21cc4ee2f30bad3fee832ae7d884394f9c8389386a8229de8516&

Here is one where i made it 50/50 if a sector goes up and down around 30 times, and also visible monster spawning and item spawning

As for the sectors, i just made a 50/50 actor, which has a chance to spawn basically nothing, or a potted plant. If the plant spawns, it gets pushed forward on a moving sector (treadmill behavior) and then gets pushed past a linedef, which activates the sector going up. causing the pillars to rise

actor fiftyfifty : RandomSpawner 7834
{
DropItem "Plant"
DropItem "NAN"
}

alternatively you could just make a wandering npc that dosent count as a monter, entrapped in the room, which will naturally pass the linedef, but i find it funnier to treadmill potted plants out of bounds to trigger things

Well im going to stop spamming the chat and go now, have fun guys

[dusty heron]

This seems silly to some, but something like this could become a roguelike mod for doom, where each playthrough and each map is totally different, and we wont have to keep using OBsidian to generate them.

[shut crane]

Doom Roguelike already exist

[dusty heron]

Yeah but it's not an FPS

I mean, Doom infinite definitely looks awesome, but even more roguelike mods would be awesome

[haughty flower]

help would be appreciated.

[runic breach]

[haughty flower]

Btw BD v21 aint working for me

[runic breach]

brutal ballistics is a standalone mod afaik

run it with higher priority than BD or use the monsters-only version of brutal doom

[runic breach]

can i see how you're launching it

[haughty flower]

ye sure

[haughty flower]

Oh and heres what happens when i try ti launch BD 21

[runic breach]

can you run brutal ballistics on its own?

[haughty flower]

i tried it didnt work

[runic breach]

yeah that's where the problem is, i'll try running it myself

[haughty flower]

What hapoens when i play bd v21

mm alr

[runic breach]

im so sorry it took so long, my wifi is shit rn and setting up doom took a bit

but it runs perfectly fine for me

"./gzdoom.exe" -iwad "DOOM2.WAD" -file "../../Desktop/doom_mods/brutalv21.pk3" "../../Desktop/doom_mods/BrutalBallistics.pk3" is the launch command i used @haughty flower

can i see yours?

[ornate knoll]

im making a target range for my megawad

so far it looks like a bowling alley

this is gonna take a long time i can tell

[haughty flower]

R u using brutal doom v21 or v19?

Cuz i think my BD Version is the problem here. I have BD V19 cuz when i try to use BD V21 it doesnt work.

[runic breach]

v21

[haughty flower]

.

[runic breach]

how did you turn brutalballistics into a pk3

[haughty flower]

I compressed the folder to a .zip file then renamed it to pk3

[runic breach]

i just renamed the zip from the download to pk3 without any compressing

[haughty flower]

Wait what? How?

[runic breach]

the download is a zip broski

in fact you don't even need to change it to pk3

[haughty flower]

Nah but after i downloaded it it just turned into a folder

[runic breach]

what 😭

[runic breach]

macos shit istg

[haughty flower]

I downloaded it from moddb

[haughty flower]

I got no other choice tho 😭🙏

this sucks

is this like a mod pack?

[runic breach]

seems like a lighting mod

[brave hemlock]

oh perhaps

[honest surge]

i have only 1 pk3 and wad installed guess what thay are

[cloud tangle]

thats cool and all, but WHY DID YOU TAKE THE ARMOR BONUS AT THE START?

[cloud tangle]

let me guess, either myhouse.wad or brutal doom

also drinking game: everytime brutal doom is mentioned in this server, take a shot

thatd probably kill me

[shut crane]

The gunshot sound when you finish the level makes me bleed out of my ears

[coral cloud]

it's 2 original things, like redone maps and such, and also a sound redo,

[coral cloud]

the rest of the mods that are credited in my post are just there because I recommend using them.

[neon steppe]

my very own doom map

its pretty short and bad, i just wanted to make a doom map cuz how fucking cool is that

[neon steppe]

i only tested it with DSDA btw

[shut crane]

I love that Doom has a very easy to use level editor

I tried the Half-Life one and...I didn't even made a test map or something, I felt disoriented without tutorials

[shut crane]

I'll try it now

[brave hemlock]

hell yea thats the spirit

[shut crane]

As your first map is very good. The only criticism are the texture misplacements, if you want to know how to adjust the texture to be aligned press CTRL + A while on 3d view in Doom Builder

I really liked it overall

[neon steppe]

yeah i didnt really care about the texture alignment and all that, i think the most important thing is the shape of the map and monster placement

ofc texturing is really important too but iam not good at choosing textures so just decided to go with a pretty simple look

[shut crane]

My recommendation is making a sector with a limited choices of textures and sticking only to that certain palette you want to use

Or additionally if you want there are custom texture packs for Doom

[coral cloud]

it's good but easier modes are harder than the harder modes, the cyberdemon at the start isn't there on nightmare difficulty

[neon steppe]

oh yeah i forgot i put a cyberdemon in the begining if you dont play on ultra violence lmao

[shut crane]

I made some unfinished wads, and I was thinking, after playing lots of maps and practicing on the editor, to fix some issues of my first wads

[coral cloud]

I lost like allll of my old doom maps because my pc broke down.

[shut crane]

I thought it was some sort of puzzle and I just timed when the elevator was going up and run

[neon steppe]

sorry for that lol

[shut crane]

Honestly that's good

[coral cloud]

I beat the map in 22 seconds.

[shut crane]

Because you can beat him in the end with the plasma gun

[neon steppe]

you have the ammo for that?

[shut crane]

Yes there was

[neon steppe]

thats cool

[shut crane]

I mostly used chaingun and super shotgun

This was an old wad I made, I remember that in the end I just gave up on the idea I had

The wad is 34mb because I used mp3 music...

[neon steppe]

is it compatible with dsda?

[shut crane]

I don't remember

Because has some gzdoom stuff like 3d floors and slopes

[neon steppe]

oh alr

ill try it out soon

[shut crane]

Gzdoom is my main source port

I don't know which other source port I could use for testing maps

I have chocolate Doom, but I don't know if I can play custom wads on it

[neon steppe]

I think you can, although i dont know much about source ports

[shut crane]

I know that the people either use Gzdoom/lzdoom or PrBoom+

[neon steppe]

dsda is an extension to PrBoom+

i think if you test it on prboom it should work on dsda too

[shut crane]

Ok thanks

In these years Doom became my sort of Minecraft because I think I spent a lot of time on making wads and I love it

[coral cloud]

same

I made a wad that replaces the DOOM 1 music with my own

and the chaingun is also an m16 now

[trail heron]

Okay so I'm trying to install a few mods but I have a question.

What do they mean by zscript friendly version of GZdoom?

[onyx scroll]

You can, hell even the vanilla executable can

Just that both of them have the original limits so you cannot play anything that is limit raising or removing

Or anything that needs Boom or MBF features (need the respected source ports for those requirements)

Also no 3D floors and slopes as those are pretty much GZDoom exclusive

[shut crane]

Ok thanks

[shut crane]

I think newer versions or smth

[trail heron]

Oh ok

[shut crane]

I never heard of zscript friendly gzdoom, so I think it might be just newer versions

[trail heron]

👍

[honest surge]

no

its golden souls and the forbiddin pk3

[trail heron]

Okay so I'm kinda a noob when it comes to mods and advanced computer stuff. I need help with getting some mods to work properly.

https://youtu.be/Cpsm9pcnQ2s?si=8X_vWHagKaYekJTV I was doing what some of the video says. I got the mods installed but I'm having trouble the ZDL stuff.

The only mods I didn't want were the Graveyard, War Trophies, and Corruption Cards.

The Doom Rougelike arsenal seems to be working but not DoomRPG

Probably because the DoomRPG thing I used is a whole folder and not pk3 thing.

Like I followed the instructions at the end of the video

Well kind of... Like I already had GZDoom and I just put the mods directly into the GZDoom folder

[runic breach]

oh, awesome

[bitter flame]

Prolly just any newer version. I am sure they exist but I never heard of a zscript unfriendly version of gzdoom.

[runic breach]

maybe your load order

[trail heron]

Load order?

[runic breach]

priority goes from the bottom to the top

if one mod's stuff isn't showing up, move it lower in zdl

do you get error logs?

[trail heron]

No

[runic breach]

ah, turn it into a zip first

[coral cloud]

[honest surge]

when i first played doom it whas pirated

[runic breach]

👍

[fringe finch]

Is there a Doom 2 wad that plays like the elder scrolls with the maps being reminiscent that of STALKER: Shadow Of Chernobyl where it isn't fully open-world?

[shut crane]

...fully open world no...but you can play Hexen and Heretic which were games on the same engine of Doom and have a fantasy theme

[runic breach]

oddly specific

[neon steppe]

i just finished mapping this slaughter map

i made it for dsda, Doom II, and theres no difficulty

its probably playable on more source ports i just only tested it with dsda

[neon steppe]

Im going to upload a silly little video showing my silly little example

i use slade to edit maps

[runic breach]

woahh

this is really, really interesting

care to send any files?

[brittle lily]

i could send the entire wad, but it has some nsfw stuff in it, (you wont find it by playing, except for a bodypillow weapon i added that has a 2% chance of spawning)

[runic breach]

oh

[brittle lily]

but if your fine with that
i can send you it

[runic breach]

dm it i guess? since nsfw mods are against the rules here sadly

[runic breach]

yeah

[brittle lily]

give me like 20 mins, ill upload latest ver to dropbox, my wifi slow (its 80 mb)

[runic breach]

ah alright

[brittle lily]

and no the file size is not actually required for the effect

i just have all my assets i used for other mods in every wad i make, cause im lazy

also that isnt the normal spawn position, i just spawned the player there to show it hapening live

(your locked in a little loading room for like 6 sec normally)

Some nightmare mode gameplay of my rng map (clip starts randomly)

[ornate knoll]

is it possible to make a 3d floor a ceiling/roof

like if i wanted to have fancy architecture like the ceiling be shaped like a triangle or a hexagon

or maybe the roof being shaped like a triangle

like in one of those cartoony house doodles

[shut crane]

You can with slopes I think

[fringe finch]

Sounds like Hexen, doesn't it? Tbh, I really want to play that game but I don't have enough cash to buy it right now. I'll wait until spring for a steam sale.

I just thought that maybe there is a doom 2 total conversion mod that is pretty similar to that game.

[shut crane]

Why do people say that Doom isn't 3d?

[fringe finch]

There must be a confusion with the gameplay and the environment

[shut crane]

Maps are clearly 3d

[barren hamlet]

its technically not

[fringe finch]

I think about this because you see, doom is actually a top down shooter game, a genre that is mostly synonymous with 2D.

It uses raycasting to make it 3D, which also turns the game into an FPS.

It's pretty clever if you think about it.

[shut crane]

I always thought people thought Doom wasn't 3D because of the usage of sprites for enemies and weapons

[brave hemlock]

software rendering doesnt mean not 3d

the fact that you cant look up/down or the texture alignment breaks also doesnt mean not 3d

it is 3d its just primitively 3d

thanks to sp's like gzdoom we have fully 3d doom and its awesome

[runic breach]

no

you're just silly

[runic breach]

you're wrong about this, that's wolfenstein

doom explicitly has a vertical axis coded into its physics

you can walk under and over projectiles, and room-above-room is possible albeit limited

doom also isn't a raycaster the way wolf3d is

[teal wyvern]

is this based on the shining? the aesthetic of your map is great

[neon steppe]

is there a way to test deathmatch/cooperative mode for you map locally without needing to setup a multiplayer server

[ornate knoll]

also by this i meant indoor arches

[onyx scroll]

There is iirc, but I forgot the exact command line argument needed

-solo-net if I’m correct

[neon steppe]

thanks

is there a command for deathmatch too?

i know theres -deathmatch but that onl makes the spawns work for some reason

[dry fable]

Hello, I want to share a project with you.

https://youtu.be/p8mXElBcIbw?si=_UsSbsCQC9c8Jd_d

[brittle lily]

im going to upload yet another video of my rng doom wad

[brittle lily]

Also i made random rain and lightning- that can randomly spawn as well, in its own little area.

fun fact: when rain is spawned, it has a chance to be thunder (about 5% chance) or a 1 in 1000 (0.1%)chance to be mythical rain that heals you to 1000 health (mythical rain is pink)

[brittle lily]

guys i found a mythical rain (it 0.1% chance to spawn)

[shut crane]

That's sick, bro

[brave hemlock]

are the backrooms canon in doom

[shut crane]

Yes, but the monsters run away from Doomguy

[cloud tangle]

doomguy is the danger

[ornate knoll]

doomguy is the one who knocks

[runic breach]

Who are you talking to right now? Who is it that you think you see? Do you know how many demons I kill in a year? I mean, even if I tell you, you wouldn't believe it. Do you know what happens if I suddenly decide to stop doing what I do? An entire planet goes belly-up. Gone. It goes to hell without me. No, you clearly don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Hayden. I am the danger. Someone opens a UAC door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks.

^ a view of what my map looks like by default and watch the rng happen live in-game

all the weird boxes outside the map are kinda like weird 50/50 rooms where it runs odds for serperate things, and others are weird logic-gates which do things based off if others happen or not

[brittle lily]

(also slade dosent render 3dsectors like the windows, so those dont preview)

[brittle lily]

if anyone wants to play the rng map, you can dm me, alltho do note it has some nsfw files in it (which i have yet to remove) so only dm me for it if your okay with that

[haughty flower]

Hello everyone. So i play GZDOOM on mac but the problem is that when i launch it i just get a black screen. It just shows my cursor. Any help?

[teal wyvern]

ey good job man, you really put a lot of work into this!

[dry fable]

Yeah

More job was draw the weapons and animations

[brittle lily]

Iv made a wall that gets replaced with a random letter of the alphabit

if you dont belive it, it really does put one of 26 letters on the wall (i had to use many braincells to do this rng method)

it uses 26 "3DFLOORS" / Dummy sectors.

for each letter of the alphabit i had to make an actor for that letter, and i seperated them based on height, made it so 1 of the 26 spawns, and based on the height of the actor it will trigger the right triggers to make it end up on just its letter

[cloud tangle]

why not just have 26 separate sectors one map unit wide?

[brittle lily]

that wouldent work, that would be 26 seperate things, and also cause the actor gets treadmilled across activation lines

if we did that, we wouldent know what the result of the other 25 letters were

and thus it would result in a mess

also if you mean the dummy sectors, i like them being the origional size of what im replacing

it also makes it so i can ajust the texture how i want it

[brittle lily]

How about three letters, now this... This could form a word.... Possibly. Given the 1 in 26 chance hits just right 3 times in a row.

I could even make a "no letter" teir, which puts the wall back if i wanted. That could create spaces. I could also make it pick vowels more often

[brittle lily]

three in a row! (forming the word row)

i added a 4th, and it spelled dice by random chance

out of 456,976 possible letter combinations

From what I'm seeing, there used to be a Limited Use Software License Agreement in some of the files

it has been deleted two days ago

[brave hemlock]

yooo

yea was this here before???

[sterile schooner]

I don't think it was

[real elm]

DOPE

[sterile schooner]

So wait, what does this entail for DOOM 1993? Does it mean you can compile the game yourself and play it? Does it mean you don't have to buy DOOM anymore? I'd like some clarifications about things like that.

[runic breach]

woahh

[runic breach]

no, john carmack already addressed these issues way back when he first open-sourced doom

you are paying for the assets and levels, NOT the code and engine

you can compile the game but it will not run without a file containing the assets and levels

[shut mural]

They should add an Omni man partner mod to doom

[sterile schooner]

I expected as much

[shut mural]

It’d be just like the Isabelle mod

[sterile schooner]

you do need the WAD file to run the actual game after all

but the engine itself is now fully open source

[runic breach]

i don't think that changes much at all

we were always able to compile and modify doom for ourselves since the OG source code release

[shut mural]

I think eventually doom will get to a certain extent (obv the old doom) to where we can use the source engine without the WAD

LMFAO

do you know anything about programming

[cloud tangle]

isnt that what gzdoom (and other source ports) do?
i dont know anything about programming, i just make maps lol

[lusty dove]

Maybe he means that mods will eventually replace so much stuff that you don’t even need the iwad anymore?

[runic breach]

they still need something to replace though

[runic breach]

gzdoom still needs the wad
