This is a valid question but it also works as a sick burn 🔥 🔥

[red zinc]

lovely, looks old school

map20 of my megawad, still not done

[karmic egret]

does anyone know why this texture doesn't show up in ultimate doom builder?

[karmic egret]

Like the texture is completely white in ultimate doom builder but in slade it isn't

[safe steppe]

can you send the wad with the texture here

[karmic egret]

Uhhh sure

Hold on

[naive tundra]

how do you make custom decorations in doom builder?

[naive tundra]

unrelated, i have a secret door that lowers the floor down so it doesnt go back into the ceiling, but when i interact with the door, it lowers a bunch of other things that it's not even closely related to

[whole blade]

You don't. UDB isn't an asset creation program

[safe steppe]

If using vanilla doom format you will have to replace the textures of existing ones as you can't add new things

If using UDMF I believe you can use DECORATE

https://zdoom.org/wiki/DECORATE

You can also use ZScript which is newer

[safe steppe]

Maybe they share the same tag?

[whole blade]

Depdns whether they're wanting to make custom stuff from scratch, or just add in an existing new resource (I was operating under the former)

Most stuff you can get hold of will already have the relevant code with the asset

And then it's just a matter of adding it as a resource in UDB

[safe steppe]

yeah there is that site that has many doom assets

I think it's realm667

[haughty flower]

O just beated valiant map 19 uv pavifist

And under par time

[safe steppe]

damn that's really good

[naive tundra]

i worded that wrong. i meant how do i make custom decorations to work in doom builder

[naive tundra]

they dont. the other walls dont even have a tag

[naive tundra]

hm

[safe steppe]

does the switch that does that action have a tag?

[naive tundra]

the door doesnt have a switch, but no

[safe steppe]

try to give it a tag and also a tag to the floor you're lowering

doors don't need tags iirc but lowering/raising floors/ceilings do

[naive tundra]

kk

[cerulean notch]

thank you!

[cerulean notch]

Well, it is not completed, but this is the wad i'm working on:

• 7 levels from MAP01 to MAP07 are completed
• Tested in Crispy Doom, PrBoom+ (-complevel 2) and GZDoom
• Easy, medium and hard difficulty

[whole blade]

Provided the asset has the required code (which most of the stuff in realm667 does) you add it as a resource via F2

[pallid bronze]

does anyone know some alternatives to realm667? I find it's armory lacking a bit

[karmic egret]

anyone know how to make a double sliding door?

[karmic egret]

idk brutal doom????

[karmic egret]

this is why if I interact with the left door then it opens like a normal double sliding door would but if I interact with the right one then the right one messes the doors up

[karmic egret]

its a decent mod(felt like an easy version of plutonium or tnt experiment) but I did experience this where sometimes it shows the void in the ground

[cerulean notch]

Thank you for playing it! The other thing, probably due to the editor crashing every time that it may have broke a linedef or a sector

[karmic egret]

oh

[cerulean notch]

Since my pc is too old for ultimate doom builder, gzdoom builder is the only one that works

[whole blade]

There was an old site called "wild weasel's armory" back in the day. I thiiiiink it's still up? But realm667 is by far and away the largest repo for this kind of stuff

[unkempt tartan]

Alright, so I got my Doom Map Trilogy edited to the point where it's ready for final testing

If anyone is up for some Doom Map Testing, either ping me or DM me and I'll send over my wad

[naive tundra]

might make this into a mod so i guess i'll put this here

[night pond]

I’ll probably do it when I get home

[naive tundra]

he is armed, and armed

[pallid bronze]

I wanted to share my wip wad with everyone for feedback please enjoy! (gzdoom/zdoom only) this is my first ever wad! (lvl 5 is incomplete)

[lusty dove]

Do you guys know if vanilla dooms music system supports notes having velocities?

[pallid bronze]

I'm 85% sure it does. Not certain though

[karmic egret]

anyone know how to make double sliding doors?

[safe steppe]

Archvile cannon 😄

[haughty flower]

for a new monster, rendered in blender

[lusty dove]

another quick music system question

i know doom has 9 music channels and one is for percussion, but how many notes can play at a time in each channel

[naive tundra]

for some reason, doom builder wont spawn enemies or items when i test the map, but it spawns decorations

[lusty dove]

what software do you guys use to make music for your doom WADS

I was trying to use the software I already knew how to use, called FL Studio, but I couldn't get it to export in a way that doom would read the instruments properly

[runic breach]

SICKKK

[lusty dove]

wait to make monster sprites, do you make them in blender and then take images of them?

[haughty flower]

yeah, i rendered and sculpted them in blender... first time doing something like that

[lusty dove]

Nice, I kinda wanna try that now

They look really good

[haughty flower]

yeah, when scaling down the sprites i use a setting called NEAREST NEIGHBOR and i use pain.net to edit them together.

[lusty dove]

Pain.net lmao

[haughty flower]

yep!

i use that for all spritework, along with keyboard and mouse

apsrite is an alternative but paint.net is a good one to use for sprite editing

here, get it:
https://www.getpaint.net/

[lusty dove]

I’d probably just use gimp cuz that’s what I’m used to

[haughty flower]

that too

[remote widget]

WIP

[slate maple]

now i feel the need to add a slayer gate to each level.

they will give a currency, where you can buy weapons, perm upgrades, the unmaykr and maybe even this badass armor:

[karmic egret]

anyone have any tips on how to get good at texturing?

[slate maple]

just start making your own and practice because that shit is hard

[karmic egret]

mhm ok

[slate maple]

i would also like to know how to force Adobe PHotoshop

to use only the doom pallette

but start with a blank color and slowly add stuff, then use Filter -> Other -> Offets to make your textures seamless

[solar brook]

why not make a linedef in front of the doors instead?

[karmic egret]

Uhhh ok

I'll have to try that too

[pallid bronze]

Hey, are you finished with this it looks really cool!

[slate maple]

I still have lots of work to do, stll need to make EP 5/6 after I add hub, slayer gates to the other episdoes

[karmic egret]

nice gatling gun?????

[haughty flower]

Cgun

[karmic egret]

This doesn't look good does it?

[glacial skiff]

No, but mostly because of the scaling filter making it look ultra blurry

[crisp dragon]

Oh god filtering

[karmic egret]

Er ok

[karmic egret]

Then how do I make this look more doom-like

[safe steppe]

Use nearest neighborhood scaling

Or try other methods to scale it down

[glacial skiff]

Scale the pistol down and paint the details back in by hand is how I would do it

[karmic egret]

Mk

[glacial skiff]

Yea, part of what I mean when I say "paint the details back in by hand"

You probably will also want to cut out the reflex's backdrop and paint in some alpha sheen or something to give the impression

[runic breach]

remove the filtering and make it match the palette
should be good enough

[orchid dome]

can you make crushers stay down permantly?

i mean that they go down once and then stay down forever after

[karmic egret]

does this look more doom like now?

[karmic egret]

actually I did this

[karmic egret]

here's a transparent version

[glacial skiff]

Is there any actual solution to the playerclass morph duration problem

(In other words, are we still okay with setting the morph duration to 2 years instead of just "infinite")

[glacial skiff]

Ok nevermind, morphing sucks

I was going to play with the idea of putting class selection in as part of the start map since difficulty and episode selection is already done there, but MorphActor is booty tbh

[karmic egret]

I have no idea what that is but ok

[glacial skiff]

Morphing is when you, well, "morph" one actor into another, e.g. player morphing into a chicken/pig in Heretic/Hexen

My game has three player classes, and I wanted to use that feature to have the player choose their class in a Quake-like start level

A number of problems with the morphing system makes this infeasable 😛

One of those many problems is that movebobbing stops working

[karmic egret]

ok???

[glacial skiff]

You know how in Hexen you play as Fighter, Mage, and/or Cleric?

And you know how in Quake, you don't pick easy/medium/hard from a menu, you do it from the start level?

[karmic egret]

yes

anyone know how to import custom sounds into doom I couldn't find a good tutorial for it

[glacial skiff]

Are you trying to replace a sound or add an entirely new one

[solar brook]

The moment when you hit a mental roadblock for the layout, so you start decorating and detailing your existing areas

[karmic egret]

Replace one

Cause it's for a door

[ionic bear]

Doing my first doom sprite

[royal wave]

Name the sound the exact same name as the sound you want to replace. You can use SLADE to browse the contents of the IWAD you're using as a base to find the name

[karmic egret]

Ok

Thx I'll try that

[royal wave]

IE if i want to make Doomguy use a custom grunt without making a new actor class, I name my sound file DSOOF and it'll play my replacement

[night pond]

for my episode 1, should i do a tech base with custom textures, or an ancient style since im using plutonia as a base?

also if anyone has some ancient style texture packs please send them to me

[woven birch]

tech bases are common do ancient

[glacial skiff]

Nothing wrong with tech bases either mind you

[fringe atlas]

You could also argue that ancient is a tad overdone, though perhaps less-so in doom mods

[flat pebble]

An outdoors/nature theme would be a good idea if you want a "challenge"-I haven't seen much of any and by default doom lacks much to do such. 🤷‍♂️

Any map theme can be good if you put the effort/make it unique.

[glacial skiff]

You should choose whatever theme you feel would make the most interesting layout to express the central ideas (if any) in your level

Lots of dynamic space = mysterious ancient temple?

[karmic egret]

can I ask someone to do something before it drives me nuts

it sounds very simple but its been driving me nuts

its to put a texture on top of this box(you don't see it but theirs no texture on top of this box) so who wants to do it?

[glacial skiff]

Do what now

[karmic egret]

nvm fixed it

[blazing crag]

anyone know smooth doom?

i kinda wanna see if anyone knows if there's a server for that mod

[ivory kettle]

https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/128869-doom-newbie-i-finished-my-map05/

I finished my map05! I hopr you dudes enjoy it!

[twin shadow]

I was gonna write a big paragraph here but decided to post on the forums.

[ivory kettle]

kewl

[runic breach]

i know brutal doom is kinda frowned upon, but what brutal doom forks/versions would you guys recommend

vanilla brutal doom v21 isn't very good imo

project brutality is pretty cool but runs terribly

[glacial skiff]

"Frowned upon" lol

Play any mod you want! Free real estate

[runic breach]

black metal difficulty's pretty fun but the weapons just aren't clicking much for me

also kinda sucks imo how you can't turn on vertical autoaim to play without mouselook since doom with mouselook feels very wrong to me

[runic breach]

yes

[pallid bronze]

How do you guys get ideas I'm extremely uncreative so I just kinda copy a room from the doom 2 campaign?

[runic breach]

list out what all the enemies do

brainstorm really hard on how you can use them to make an interesting fight

once you have a few planned combat encounters, think on how you can string them together coherently

for the map, think about what you want to do
do you want it to be massive and full of keyhunts?
do you want pathways to be narrower and make movement trickier?
et cetera

[pallid bronze]

Thank you! this should help my mapping progress

[solar brook]

Some (Early WIP) screenshots of my first doom map ive been working on :x
Any feedback (positive & negative) is highly appreciated!

[glacial skiff]

For a "first time mapper", you seem to have a fair grasp on how to use the textures like they're real materials rather than wallpaper - that's a great place to be in for your first time. For your next step, try using non-90 degree walls more often

Even if it's just 45 degrees, you can make lots of interesting stuff

[white saddle]

Looks like Hexen doom

[solar brook]

i will keep that in mind! Thank you!

[trail steeple]

for a first map it looks VERY good !

[solar brook]

Made a little teaser video hehe

[solar brook]

Thank you!

[trail steeple]

did you make maps for other games ?

like seriously,this looks like something i'd see being made by a good mapper

[solar brook]

Thanks! But no, its the first time creating a map for a game hehe

[trail steeple]

i'm even more impressed

[karmic egret]

anyone have a good tutorial on how to add new enemies to doom?

[karmic egret]

did I even name the files right? (this is the enemy I'm making btw)

[haughty flower]

Not sure. I recently got into doom.

[karmic egret]

Mhm

I don't understand how the enemy scripts work in doom

[glacial skiff]

Sprites can't be arbitrarily named. They generally follow the convention [4-character name][letter][number] (and optionally an additional letter and number pair)

Example: TROOA2A8

You can either rename your sprites, or map them in textures. I strongly suggest you just rename the sprites, it's much easier

https://zdoom.org/wiki/Sprite#Angles This article, specifically the linked section, explains how everything works

In most cases, you will probably be worried about either rotation 0, or rotations 1-8

[safe steppe]

This is all I could find, it may or may not be helpful https://zdoom.org/wiki/Creating_new_monsters_or_other_complex_items

[karmic egret]

so if I wanted some of the sprites to look left I would type in CATO3?

I'm naming the files cato[insert here]

[glacial skiff]

No, sprite names must be exactly 4 characters and there must be a frame identifier and an angle number, at a minimum

ex. ACATA1

Or CATOA3 or what have you

[karmic egret]

oh

[glacial skiff]

If you need a visual reference, open doom2.wad in SLADE and look at the series of sprites starting with TROO

[karmic egret]

oke

[slate maple]

since people are asking me for it

it is basically the cover art demon from Doom 1, have fun

two versions, one with Green blood and the other with Red

it use to be compatible with the OG doom pallette but somewhere in my editing it got lost.

[runic breach]

[haughty flower]

https://www.moddb.com/mods/ultimate-mortal-kombat-doom/downloads/ultimate-mortal-kombat-doom-v12

[pallid bronze]

Does anyone know how to make something like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcdCqEmfGAY&t=79s I figured out the camera but how do I get them to infight?

[slate maple]

through scripts in ACS

#include "zcommon.acs"
script 1 ENTER
{
Thing_Hate(1, 2, 2);
Thing_Hate(2, 1, 2);
}

and then for the "factions" you would do this;

[pallid bronze]

Thank you so much!

[glacial skiff]

I would like to point out that you can also do this in Decorate, but the ACS method is perfectly good and is still how I usually do it

[stuck kite]

am i the only one that got a sick pleasure out of killing this dude

and now

[haughty flower]

BRO THATS LOOK ASWOME

Heritic type shit

[lyric oar]

i wanated to ask, how do i extract music from a WAD using Slade?

There´s this midi i want, Quantum Strike Map 3, but i can´t find it anywhere and i can´t decompress the wand to search in

[karmic egret]

is this enemy done correctly?

[pallid bronze]

Yeah, looks good to me. Just need to make the SS_START and SS_END be at the start and end

[karmic egret]

ok

[glossy hull]

open in slade -> filter for Audio -> find the right one and right click to export

[runic breach]

is there any way to let vertical autoaim work in brutal doom

[pallid bronze]

doesn't autoaim already work for brutal doom? if not just turn up your autoaim in gzdoom settings

[runic breach]

vertical autoaim doesn't work

i'll just mess around with the code ig

i pray to god sgt. mark iv didn't write spaghetti code

[runic breach]

ok it works in purist mode

[pallid bronze]

Why does it matter if you can look up and down?

[runic breach]

i screwed up my vertical sensitivity a while back and can't make it feel right anymore + i avoid mouselook when i can because i'm not used to having it in doom and i get a little dizzy with it on sometimes

i get dizzy because the game feels wobbly with mouselook on

[karmic egret]

how come it won't let me spawn the enemy in ultimate doom builder?

[pallid bronze]

did you give it an id number?
like "ACTOR exampleMonster 3140"
without the id udb doesnt recognize it
if the sprites didn't work then it just wouldnt render the sprites and give you the error sprite

[karmic egret]

Oh

[karmic egret]

ae i still don't get why I can't see the enemy in ultimate doom builder

[pallid bronze]

I need to see the decorate/zscript code

if you want me to help

[karmic egret]

Has anyone made a doom hunter recreation?

There’s a marauder one just no doom hunter

[haughty flower]

dark or bright? which do you like?

[solar brook]

Dark

btw. great work on the environment!

[haughty flower]

🙏 thx for the feedback KEKZ

[glacial skiff]

You already appear to be using dynamic lights, so why not use them to highlight the interesting contours visible in the bright shot but without using as much sector brightness to achieve the effect

(e.g. use the darkened version as a base, then add thing #9800 with subtle values to help simulate natural light bouncing and highlight the cool landscape)

[haughty flower]

so glad i asked here-- thank you for your opinion and insight Diema

[glacial skiff]

Someone from another server noticed a kind of fun construct with Zscript -- when talking about flags, the expression FLAGNAME==false evaluates to the expected value, just for the wrong reason

It's neat that you can do stuff like that and even make such a mistake without ever knowing it's wrong

(For example, passing a flag to A_SpawnItemEx or whatever)

Can anyone help with this pls?

[glacial skiff]

Open doom2.wad and look at the sprites starting with TROO

That will explain it 90%

[karmic egret]

I tried that but I don't get how the sprites look right when none of the sprites look like they do

[glacial skiff]

That is what the second pair of characters is for - TROOA2A8 translates to frame A8 is horizontally mirrored from frame A2

You do not have to name your sprites this way if you do not want mirroring

[karmic egret]

Oh

[glacial skiff]

Use Y offsets. They work as normal

Oh nvm

[glacial skiff]

You need to assign the enemy a Doomednum

[glacial skiff]

Having fun with models

[haughty flower]

im dissatisfied with the revenant variant of my terminator monster replacer mod, so im making new sprites for him.

[haughty flower]

that's looking pretty sweet. ominous. sky texture custom?

[glacial skiff]

All assets are custom. The sky is something like 8 3D floors which waggle and 10 or so dynamic lights that pulse in weird timings

The idea is, take a single 256x128 texture and layer it in different scales and rotations and have them all scroll in slightly different directions. It seems to be a pretty good way to hide the tiling in the low res cloud texture

Note the decals on the floor, including alpha transparency 😏

Not something that has never been done before, but something more people should try imo

[haughty flower]

can't wait to see that rendered in game i mean, not just a picture. video or in game footage

[glacial skiff]

Here's that

[safe cave]

So i need somebody for my Gzblood project...

[crisp dragon]

[haughty flower]

dynamic lights can pulse? skies can scroll? that's a killer sky/scene! excellent job

[karmic egret]

er could you give me a DECORATE example or zscript example?

[glacial skiff]

Mapinfo:

  1000 = NewEnemy
}```

The number on the left is the number you would use when placing the thing in Doom Builder, and the name on the right is whatever classname you chose

[karmic egret]

I tried that but all I get is an error

I'm not really worried about the first error so you can ignore that but idk why the second one pops up whenever I tried to load in the wad

[glacial skiff]

Here is the problem area

This is corrected

(In the ZSCRIPT lump)

[karmic egret]

oh

[karmic egret]

what about the second one though?

[glacial skiff]

Not really a problem for the most part. Just because the editor can't find something doesn't mean it won't work in GZDoom

[karmic egret]

well fuck

[karmic egret]

no like I think thats the reason why I can't choose the enemy in ultimate doom builder (I can spawn it though the console)but idk what to do about it

[glacial skiff]

Input its DoomedNum manually if you need to

In Doom Builder, I mean

[karmic egret]

mk

[karmic egret]

so I just copy and paste the thing in mapinfo to doom builder?

actually I've got an idea

ima try setting the position of the "cato" to where the enemy is supposed to be

using utltimate doom builder

You should try making that skull ceiling sloped 😉

[slate maple]

like the bleeding stones. are they animated? Did you draw those?

[deft horizon]

anyone know why my gzdoom keeps crashing?

[safe steppe]

Do you have the latest version installed?

[deft horizon]

i found the problem out literally a minute after sending that

[haughty flower]

terminator plasma gatling, i've updated the graphic for the Resistance Weapon Pack

[runic breach]

very cool

[karmic egret]

I'm just curious but I'm wondering if it's possible to load several sprites into doing one action like an animation

[slate maple]

i dont understand, need more info

you can create many custom states to have a monster enter into, and many different conditions for him to do so.

[karmic egret]

Like uhhh ig three sprites for one state its a bit hard to explain

Like those three sprites are supposed to be used for one state only

[slate maple]

merge those three into a single sprite? Not really sure

[runic breach]

like

each of these bean circle things are 1 sprite and you see them like this in that state?

[karmic egret]

Yes

[karmic egret]

Yes that's what I'm trying to say

[lost flame]

https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/129117-the-demented-trials-now-updated-to-version-11/

[deft horizon]

yes

and its not working it keeps crashing

[neon steppe]

is GZdoom better than Zdoom?

[crisp dragon]

Yes, ZDoom is outdated

[deft horizon]

how do i fix C0000005 error

imagine someone made doom eternal in doom 2

[agile shoal]

google "Doom EOA eternal"

[slate maple]

yay more custom sprites to mess with.

[quaint scroll]

anybody knows some less abstract doom wads?

i just dont like the level designs on the original doom, doom 2, tnt and plutonia, its too abstract

[glacial skiff]

Are you certain you're asking the right audience...?

[bright owl]

There’s stuff like Auger Zenith (I think that’s how it’s spelled) but in general there’s a good bit of abstract in Doom levels. Like, as a standard

[slate maple]

My maps are less abstract and more realistic, but still not up to proper building code.

OHSA would have a field day

[quaint scroll]

idk, i just love the original quake's level design, its not as abstract as doom but its still kinda abstract to create that unknown feeling

and i wanted a wad like that

[slate maple]

Fined for blocking a doorway with a crate and barrel

[quaint scroll]

do you have any videos of your maps? or just screenshots

[slate maple]

Hell is always abstract

I posted screenshots?

Maybe can’t remember

It’s a lot of tech bases with hellish slayer gates

Ep1-4 are made, just QA testing right now

[bright owl]

Hell should always be abstract because that gives you plenty of leeway to make different locales in Hell feel wildly unique.

[unborn lark]

since the DOOM maps already have classic maps why not replace slayer gates with DooM2 maps in a mod lol.

[unborn lark]

wait a minute, the space just removed itself...

Mind if I ask for some quake advice?

[proper summit]

https://youtu.be/CXJHt7r7n7c

[haughty flower]

I love how easy it is to make new things for classic doom

[runic breach]

which quake game

if it's quake 3 arena or quake live i think i can help

or quakeworld

[sand moth]

So, While I was testing out my WAD I found out that you keep the Weapons from the previous level, Is there any way that I can prevent that from happening in my WAD?

[wild oxide]

Quake 1

[runic breach]

what advice do you need

[wild oxide]

Demo editing

[runic breach]

can't help

[sand moth]

can anyone here help me?

[runic breach]

killing the player at the end is usually how it's done

google "how to force pistol start doom"

[sand moth]

all I see is a mod and some people talking about commands that keep pistol start, I'm making a WAD for other people to enjoy, and i want then to start with a pistol every level without them having to do anything

[runic breach]

i think this can help

[sand moth]

thanks

but wait, I already made map02, is there a way to like, rename it, or something?

I cant just make map01.5

Is there a way I can do something about it? @runic breach

[safe steppe]

You can rename maps in the slade editor

[sand moth]

and can you explain how?

[safe steppe]

Open up the map in slade, choose map you want and click F2 to rename

If you don't have slade 3 downloaded, download it now

[sand moth]

thanks, hope this works

@safe steppe one more thing i want to ask, how can i make a room super dark?

[safe steppe]

In Doom Builder, you can right click a sector with the sector tool and choose a brightness value from 0 to 256

You can also select multiple sectors at a time

Or select sectors using visual mode

[sand moth]

thanks

[haughty flower]

just got udb working on linux

[safe steppe]

cool, though be careful as it's really buggy

like insanely buggy almost unusable

[haughty flower]

its not that bad

its more slow but its not unusable

[safe steppe]

for me the controls are completely broken in visual mode and it crashes often

[haughty flower]

thats strange

[safe steppe]

good thing I have a dual boot

[haughty flower]

im using it with wine i found a tutorial online on how to install udb

[safe steppe]

I compiled a linux native version

maybe that's why it doesn't work well

[haughty flower]

but im going to buy an SSD to use windows

windows 7

[safe steppe]

you can have two operating systems on one drive

if you have enough space*

[haughty flower]

i only have 250gb and windows takes a lot of space

[safe steppe]

Windows 10 takes up an entire 40GB by itself on my pc 😐

[haughty flower]

💀💀💀

i have a friend that has 7gb ram ocupied by his wallpaper

[safe steppe]

that's insane how is that possible

[haughty flower]

now im going to remade my school in UDB and add my teacher face to ALL deamons

its going to be very funny

[safe steppe]

so your teacher is doomguy

[haughty flower]

no, my teacher is the deamons

[safe steppe]

very edgy ngl

I wouldn't even think about doing that if I were you

[haughty flower]

my class makes fun of that teacher because he doesnt explain nothing and doesnt like classes

so we make memes about him

but yes its very edgy

New GZDoom DRM just dropped

[heady ridge]

Here’s a map I am working on. https://youtu.be/HxiSRMFi268

I haven’t figured out all of the story, but it isn’t “Doom” story wise, instead it’s basically it’s own thing, but uses GZDoom and Doom 2 assets.

In fact I might replace almost all of the assets by time it’s done.

[dull steeple]

Hey how do I play Doom 1 in gzdoom?

I have The Ultimate Doom and Doom 2 on steam, but only doom 2 is showing up as an option in the gzdoom menu

Or does gzdoom only work with Doom 2

[solar mica]

ty (:

[heady ridge]

I hear it works with Doom 1.

Though why it's not working for you is a mystery to me.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Doom/comments/7n0812/gzdoom_wont_detect_iwads/?utm_source=BD&utm_medium=Search&utm_name=Bing&utm_content=PSR1

[dull steeple]

these are the only two options when i open gzdoom

[heady ridge]

Good to your GZDoom folder

[dull steeple]

Okay…

What now

[heady ridge]

look for a file like this

But it should have a slightly different name

[dull steeple]

doesnt look like theres any .ini files, but i might be in the wrong folder

[heady ridge]

Huh

Maybe copy and paste your Doom 1 WAD into the folder and see if GZDoom notices it

[dull steeple]

Okay, found this, so just move it into the "gzdoom windows 64bit" folder?

[heady ridge]

Copy

[dull steeple]

yeah copy

[heady ridge]

that way the original continues to work as usual if you wanted to use it that way

[dull steeple]

Ahh I see now

Thank you kindly

[heady ridge]

You are welcome

I love 3d Floors so much now that I understand how to do this...

[dull steeple]

Yeah I’m trying to play the brutal doom “Extermination Day” wad

Not sure if it’s supposed to be for Doom 1 or Doom 2

There we go, now it’s workin

Only one teensy problem

[heady ridge]

What problem is that?

[dull steeple]

the menu font is oversized. which setting is that in again?

[heady ridge]

Options - Scaling Options

Assuming it's the same as Doom 2

[dull steeple]

Nothin. Ah, I can live with it

[runic breach]

i wonder if it's even possible

[dull steeple]

There is one modded enemy I can think of that does

It’s that flying shotgunner from Project Brutality. The one based off of the pig cops from Duke Nukem

Actually, I think the nazis in brutal doom move while shooting as well

[runic breach]

nice, maybe i'll steal their code

iirc there's also one in scythe 2

or maybe those were just zombies that moved fast

[whole blade]

It's definitely possible in gzdoom. mbf21 maybe as well. But you'd have to code and animate the enemies from scratch

[runic breach]

yes

i know my way around c++ so zscript shouldn't be that hard

however i can't find a good doom modding tutorial out there

[whole blade]

https://github.com/jekyllgrim/ZScript_Basics

Probably the best place to start

(You're right though, there is a lack of tutorials for zscript)

Very cool looking. Although it is very hard to make platformers feel 'right' in gzdoom due to the inherently floaty movement. That looks sharp tho

[runic breach]

how do you even change the perspective

GZDoom has very customizable cameras to change the perspective or play cut scenes

oh, thank you very much

I made three maps

nothing special, i used the normal textures and enemies

also it works in gzdoom too

[flat pebble]

How would I go about making a short animation in Ultimate doom builder?(with recording software aside), I want to make something from a 3rd person view, and dialog(I know to use scripts for dialog)

[whole blade]

You mean an in game cut scene?

Camera things, but you can only do it in a port that supports it (zdoom based ports)

https://zdoom.org/wiki/ChangeCamera

[flat pebble]

yes, so if I where to make a cutscene, would I just move the camera entity then?

But would I be able to move if the view is changed? didn't see revert option

[whole blade]

0 for normal players view in the TID argument

It's a separate actor for a moving camera but yes, you can move between different camera points

[lusty dove]

[serene dragon]

Does anyone know how I can create maps for doom 1993 and doom 2?

[safe steppe]

Ultimate Doom Builder

[serene dragon]

Thanks

[safe steppe]

Here is the link

[serene dragon]

ok

And you know which is the "easiest" to use, I have never created maps for doom

[safe steppe]

There are only 2 up to date doom editors

Slade 3 is more suited for modding but can be used for mapping, Ultimate Doom Builder is purely for mapping

They are both equally easy to use

[serene dragon]

ok

Do I need resources to create the maps?

@safe steppe

send it to DM

How do I get the resources for the map?

[safe steppe]

Do you have doom 1 or 2 installed?

There should be a doom.wad and a doom2.wad file in your doom directory

[serene dragon]

I'm new to creating maps, I barely know how to put brutal doom on doom

[serene dragon]

mans the pirate doom

?

[safe steppe]

Like did you install doom from steam or where exactly?

You need to go to your doom folder

and get the "DOOM.WAD" and "DOOM2.WAD" files

[serene dragon]

DOOM 3 BFG edition works?, because it brings doom 1 and 2

[safe steppe]

Check if there is doom.wad and doom2.wad in your DOOM 3 folder

I think it should work just fine

[serene dragon]

ok

[serene dragon]

My first map, since I was bored I made an impossible one, if you want to try the map, I recommend you to use GZDOOM

[hard rapids]

Ok, do I just drop the .zip for Project Brutality into DOOM 2's base folder?

ok so dragging and dropping the .zip into the gzdoom program and running it makes it work

Guess it is that easy. Really be overthinking 25 year old software

[stuck kite]

took him down with me

yes this is related to a wad im working on

[inner epoch]

Doom E6M5 leak

[inner epoch]

what

can this be done in doom builder 2?

[runic breach]

what are some good weaponsets and monster packs that work well together?

[safe steppe]

You can with Ultimate Doom Builder

Doom Builder 2 is very outdated

Keep in mind however 3D floors are limited only to UDMF Format which is only supported by (G)ZDoom and Eternity engine

[inner epoch]

so I use doom builder 2 since outside of 3d floors I don't see anything new and the builder 2 interface is much more comfortable (I use zandronum I really don't like gzdoom it has things that don't convince me)

[inner epoch]

D4V wad

14 arms

And Doom 2016 enemigues

[whole blade]

8 bajillion things have been added to the editor suite since doombuilder 2 was last updated, and UDB runs better, crashes less and has an active dev team that fixes issues and is constantly making improvements.

[inner epoch]

yes, but doom builder 2 no longer has such big errors, I'm not saying that ultimate is bad, but rather that I feel more comfortable in doom builder 2 because of its interface and because it is somewhat more striking in some aspect or another, the 2 are good for create maps and it depends on the type of map if you want to do something else like classic doom or sigil doom builder 2 is preferable but if you want to do levels like starter pack and etc from wads that have 3d stuff or max brutality mods ultimate is better

[whole blade]

if you prefer the UI that's all good but UDB is straight up better for any format

and if you're really attached the DB2 UI there's DBX which is a more direct descendent

[inner epoch]

and what does dbx bring again?

[whole blade]

a more stable platfrom, better performance, LUA scripting, active development and bugfixing ...

DB2 was last updated ....... 8? years ago

10* years

it's an antique

[inner epoch]

Yes

well then i will download that doom builder x

[whole blade]

worth checking out if you like DB2

[karmic egret]

I just want to ask like if I wanted "your game has been saved" when an autosave is made how would I write that in zdoom code

[karmic egret]

or at least like display an image at the front like in half life

but idk how to do that

[upbeat path]

[whole blade]

Almost nobody used zdoom anymore except for a few specific things. Hasn't been in development for years.

[haughty flower]

i use gz or zandronum. if im making a deathmatch mod i use zandro, if im making something more fancy for single player, i use gz

[safe steppe]

ZDoom is just old GZDoom, no real reason to use it

[runic breach]

there's no reason to use zdoom

[last burrow]

what about GZDoom Or Zandronum?

[safe steppe]

Zandronum for online play, GZDoom for singleplayer/local

[runic breach]

zandro can't run zscript

not every mod will be compatible

[royal wave]

There’s whispers that ZScript is coming to zandronum. Which is funny, because they haven’t even finished full DECORATE support yet

[whole blade]

QZAndronum has zscript support and it's in the process of being merged with the main fork

Yes, Q-Zandronum has GZDoom features, but only a select few, to further update the outdated Decorate and ACS of Zandronum 3.0. It does not have ZScript however. It doesn't even have full Decorate, just very much updated compared to even Zandronum 3.1

[whole blade]

i thought qzand had zscript

[modern aspen]

It doesn't.

And it won't for a very long time.

[whole blade]

wasn't that the whole point of qzand? to have zscript

[modern aspen]

Nope, it was to make a dedicated source port for QC:DE.

[trim path]

Not really, only to have a fork of Zandronum with moddable movement for multiplayer mods, as well as a heavily improved netcode featuring clientside prediction

[modern aspen]

To natively add stuff like Quake-like movement and non-laggy multiplayer.

[trim path]

There will be a point when Q-Zandronum merges into Zandronum eventually - or at least most of its features like the very much better netcode - but most of it wont probably be in Zandronum anytime soon, perhaps the netcode will though.
ZScript is theorized and very much thought about for Zandronum, but it'll take a waaaay longer time than the merge to have anything implemented regarding that.

Hi

[trim path]

hello

[valid slate]

I’m new to this Sever so what are we supposed to do

[trim path]

Also Kev there's your answer above. Not anytime soon, sorry 😄

[valid slate]

Oh ok thanks

[trim path]

we just talk about classic Doom here

[valid slate]

Oh I love that game

[trim path]

mainly about classic Doom maps and mods

[modern aspen]

Can't wait to be able to run ZScript mods in Zandronum once that is added at some point after the heat death of the universe lol.

[valid slate]

I have all of Doom 2016 secrets and Doom eternal

It was really hard to do

The demons

[trim path]

Problem with those will be compatibility with multiplayer. I think Kaminsky said something that since ZScript can modify so much of Doom's source, the modders may have to provide their own netcode to ensure nothing desyncs

[valid slate]

The slayer

[trim path]

It will be a challenging task to make ZScript close to flawless for 64 player multiplayer, especially with those heavier mods

[valid slate]

Nice

[royal wave]

Figured as much haha

Shouldn’t you be in bed Kaapeli?

[trim path]

The question is if it's worth all that much to add ZScript, if modders need to provide their own bigass netcode

[trim path]

yes moooom 😔

[royal wave]

<3

[modern aspen]

It's 5 AM here.

[trim path]

it's the weekend though, I sometimes find myself going to bed at 6, good grief 😬

[modern aspen]

Oh wait, we are in the same time zone.

https://youtu.be/StvtSy1Oal0

[runic breach]

found this cool
www.wad-archive.com/wad/Doom-3-sounds

[rocky zenith]

Ok Im new and I want to know how to add monsters in project brutality 3.0 i just wanna add carnage

[runic breach]

oh my god it's james rolfe

[rocky zenith]

You bet your ASSS

[spiral mural]

so im trying to use brutal doom monster expansion

and i get an error P_startscrip 706 or something

[safe steppe]

what source port are you using?

[spiral mural]

GZ

[safe steppe]

the latest version of it?

[spiral mural]

yeah

oh 796 not 706

[safe steppe]

are you launching it using ZDL or dragging and dropping the brutal doom file on gzdoom.exe?

[spiral mural]

ZDL

and im using the recommended load order by the mod author

[safe steppe]

I'll see if it launches for me

[spiral mural]

it launches for me its just everytime i start a new level the text shows up and doesnt go away

i can play it just fine but i still get thje message

[safe steppe]

iirc you can disable messages in gzdoom's settings

[spiral mural]

oh alright thanks

[safe steppe]

if the error has no impact on gameplay I would do that

[spiral mural]

that worked thanks!

[karmic egret]

does anyone have like a script for breaking boxes?

[plush ridge]

[hushed musk]

Woah

Looks good

[sinful moth]

hello people.

I literally joined this server just to show this lil' map i made in like, 2 days.
It's my first ever map and it's random af.

[safe steppe]

This looks really good

[toxic pier]

Some absolute madlad recompiled Maximum Doom (the pack-in map compilations that came with Master Levels) into a handy, ZDoom-compatible format, complete with hub-maps for easy selection.

https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/129732-v2-maximum-doom-in-one/

[lusty dove]

in reference to question asked in #classic-doom

[neon steppe]

I made a randomizer, it took me like 2 months and i will probably update it later so yeah, i hope you like it.

annd it works like a mod so it doesnt matter that its a wad file

[zealous condor]

where's the gap?

[lusty dove]

The black line at the top of the window

It's not on the window because that is a separate texture on an indented part of the wall

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/904555959203029063/987508402450206780/unknown.png

That's what the texture is supposed to look like

And it looks fine in prboom plus

[zealous condor]

it probably doesn't support that tall of a texture, so it cuts it off and loops it

[lusty dove]

But has the gap in winmbf

[lusty dove]

No it's not looped tho

The texture continues normally after the gap

[safe steppe]

99% of people will play mbf maps on dsda-doom/eternity engine so I wouldn't worry about it

[lusty dove]

I want it to be dos compatible tho

Just on the matter of principle

[safe steppe]

Try chopping up the texture into 4 128x128 textures

[lusty dove]

How do you stack them vertically tho

[safe steppe]

Or 2 128x256

You can create a sector that is only 2x2 bigger around the first sector

It will look like it's vertically stacked

[lusty dove]

Oh ok

[zealous condor]

woof

[lusty dove]

Yeah

[lusty dove]

That makes sense, thank you

[safe steppe]

It doesn't work in all situations but it should be good enough most of the time

[lusty dove]

Yeah, that's what I was doing before but was just wondering if it would be possible to make it one but if not this works fine

[safe steppe]

iirc textures in vanilla have a limit of 128x128 (except skies and some other stuff) not sure what's the limit on MBF, or if there even is one limit and not every sourceport has its own limit

[lusty dove]

I was able to import a really big texture and it was fine

It's just the tall one that it didn't like

Love this

[karmic egret]

does anyone know where the hud files are located for zdoom

[safe steppe]

You mean the hud's textures like doomguys face? It's stored in your doom.wad or doom2.wad IWAD

You can replace them with a pwad though

[karmic egret]

mk

thx

[safe steppe]

dsda-launcher is pretty cool

[lusty dove]

If I have a set of textures from another game that I want to put into a doom wad, is there a program that I can feed them through that will generate a color palette optimized for that texture set?

[whole blade]

SLADE can convert textures to a pre selected palette but there is no program that will generate one automatically from a batch of images as far as I'm aware.

[lusty dove]

Ok

It would probably have to involve some machine learning fuckery

[celest copper]

hey im trying to install crispy doom but i keep getting this error when i try to boot it up and im using the wad file from the steam version of doom 2

[late storm]

i made midi muzak

can u guys rate this

[ruby quiver]

8.7/10

[safe steppe]

Run crispy-doom.exe not crispy heretic

[runic breach]

i absolutely need to check this out

[safe steppe]

https://github.com/Pedro-Beirao/dsda-launcher/releases

[karmic egret]

Anyone know how to make an interactable screen in doom (for example, interacting with a computer so an image or text pops up)

[safe steppe]

Maybe you can do it by changing the texture when you interact with it

Kinda like a switch texture

[karmic egret]

hmmm I'll try that

[karmic egret]

ae didn't work

[sharp niche]

Ok, i’m having some trouble getting the DOOM Free Roam mod working, i’m trying to find a log area for GZ Doom but it’s so pointlessly complicated

[lusty dove]

For a custom color palette to be doom or boom compatible, do the colors need to be restricted to a certain color space or can they be whatever

[runic breach]

what's the issue

[sharp niche]

I don’t know the game launches to early so I can’t see the error in the log that pops up and the game launches without the mod enabled

[safe steppe]

How did you run the mod?

did you use ZDL or did you drag and drop the file?

[runic breach]

i'd record the screen and pause it

[sharp niche]

Through ZDL Launcher and by dragging it to GZDoom

[safe steppe]

did you extract the .wad/.pk3 from the archive file first?

do you have a file called Free.wad?

[sharp niche]

Yes

[safe steppe]

Are you running the latest version of GZDoom?

[sharp niche]

Yes, I downloaded it yesterday

[safe steppe]

alright hold on

did you run it with doom2 or doom1?

[sharp niche]

Doom 1

Or The Ultimate Doom whatever you want to call it

[safe steppe]

Try again with doom 2, the mod page says it's only for doom II

[sharp niche]

Give me a second so I can have a look at the page

[safe steppe]

this is it right?

[sharp niche]

I can try downloading the original one

[safe steppe]

Do you not have doom 2?

[sharp niche]

No

[safe steppe]

Darn unfortunate

[sharp niche]

Yes, yes I know at least half the good Doom mods are for 2

[runic breach]

almost all actually

[sharp niche]

There are no errors but for some reason it doesn’t want to render the open world stuff

[sharp niche]

Ok, I got Doom II, and I added it to ZDL as well as the newest version of Free roam

[sharp niche]

Is there a way to combine .WADs? I mean a software that takes 2 .WAD files, then combines the two into one .WAD

[safe steppe]

No, wads are made up of individual lumps, a single map or an asset like a texture or sound is a single lump

Two wads can have the same lump name so combining them would confuse the source port, for example if you had 2 lumps called MAP01

You can manually combine aspects of two wads using a wad editor like SLADE 3

But that requires some basic knowledge on how a wad file is structured

Although if you're combining two standalone maps it can be very easy

[runic breach]

wadsmoosh might be what you're looking for

[sharp niche]

Hey any of you know how to enable the 3D models for the Doom Fighters mod? The one that turns the game into 3D Street Fighters

[runic breach]

huh

was something deleted

i just think the sprite looks really good

[vast mural]

would anyone be able to rip the shotgun from bad toys 3d and its sound and animation to be used in a doom wad please? Bad toys 3d is a wolfenstein clone

i like the shotgun in that game and wanna use it in doom

if anyone could import the sprite for doom I'd appreciate it please

[vast mural]

https://youtu.be/Nf--nVMCE2s

example of the shotgun here

[safe steppe]

I was reacting to another message but it was deleted

[runic breach]

will try tomorrow if i have time
i'll just recreate the sprite if i can't rip it

[vast mural]

cool thanks, you could also rip the sound too.

really appreciate it

[vast mural]

i deleted one of the messages to remove clutter post

[runic breach]

wouldn't be high-quality

since at the moment i don't know how to rip it

[vast mural]

oh well

[vast mural]

if it doesn't work out dont worry about it

maybe you could try to redraw the sprite for more pixles like a replica

[runic breach]

gonna try now
finally got the time to work on it

[vast mural]

cool thanks, also I never made a doom wad before so idk how I would put the weapon mod into the game

[neon steppe]

New update!

now, not only the monsters are randomized but the weapons and the decorations too

and i also added a health

from clusterfuck

[neon steppe]

*healthbar

[frail quiver]

anyone know how to set up doom wads spent about an hour on useless tutorials

[lusty dove]

how do i make good circles? every time i try it, it sucks

[somber anchor]

is this just maps or is it other mods too?

ok im guessing other mods too

so i made a mod i call the big friendly game

[whole blade]

Use the ellipse tool

Can't remember what the original binding is but there's a button on the top toolbar

[somber anchor]

Here is the Big Friendly Game

1-0

[lusty dove]

yeah i found it

its really frustrating though because it puts the corners on the top bottom left and right

is there a way i can make it so that there are edges on the top bottom left and right?

[whole blade]

Top bottom left?

It draws in the direction you drag

This might help
https://youtu.be/EeVLPETXwCs

[lusty dove]

Top, bottom, left, and right, I meant that by default there are points on the four sides, how would I draw it so that there are edges on the four sides instead

[final yacht]

need some help with Things Mode, I'm placing some enemies but when I launch the game they don't appear

[whole blade]

You need to put a value in the angle field when in draw ellipse mode. The value will depend on the number of side of the ellipse

Either that or rotate the ellipse after you've drawn it with edit mode

[lusty dove]

yeah but that only works for some side counts

for others, that angle would end in 0.5, and the angle box doesnt let you input decimals for some stupid reason

[whole blade]

Then use edit mode

Which cam take up to at least 2 decimal places (pretty sure it's 3 though)

[versed maple]

yo dude wtf is goin on

[safe steppe]

Why did you reply to a message from January

[trail lion]

https://youtu.be/BJv6C68CkrY

[thick inlet]

prboom runs modded levels right? or am I dumb?

[whole blade]

It can run boom/mbf compatible wads and mods.

[thick inlet]

i just downloaded gzdoom because i got annoyed lol

[lusty dove]

modded can mean very different things depending on the context

most levels have a section in the description that says what kind of ports they are compatible with

there is no such thing as a universal doom mod format, but the most common one is gzdoom mods, and no, prboom+ is not compatible with those

[whole blade]

not really. modded means altered gameplay as a core definition. alter a monster? modded. alter a weapon? modded. make a map with custom textures but all stock gameplay? not modded

[safe steppe]

Modded, just means that it was Modified, so a vanilla/boom megawad is called a mod, and a gameplay mod that changes the entire game to something else entirely is called a mod too

[whole blade]

pure stock gameplay wads aren't mods because there is no modified gameplay

[safe steppe]

Any modification to a game regardless of what it is, is by definition a mod

[safe steppe]

GZDoom is the best option if you want the most mod support

[whole blade]

Cool. I'm referring to how it is defined in the classic doom community. Literally how it's broken down on id/games

[runic breach]

ok so

there are different types of mods

dehacked
actionscript
decorate
zscript

these are the ones i am aware of
