Sure!

Alright is E2M8 open for business?

[Walter confetti]

Yes

[Roebloz]

Making E2M8 then.

[SilverMiner]

Do we have another open slot?

[Walter confetti]

Yes, on episode 3

[Roebloz]

Here is E2M8, similar to E2M8 in that its an arena with a bunch of demons with the boss. However instead of all of them being on a tiny ledge, this time they're everywhere. One pro tip: To defeat the Cyberdemon, shoot at it until it dies Keep. Moving.

Also now that I think about it, that means I made 50% of the boss levels.

 

EDIT: Added the level name (Tower of Urdak)

I'm reserving an E3 slot

[SilverMiner]

Wow, I can't hit Warimp with fist. Seems cool

 

Here's the map (slot e3m1 in the following wad), ~125KiB

Name: Lab of Beat

Music: None (you will hear e3m1 however)

Feedback (and even FDA) is encouraged

 

[Walter confetti]

Adding to the map list!

[maxresdefault]

By the way, how is the player going to access the secret levels? Are there levels with secret exits?

Lol I just wanted to ask the same thing

There's an E2M5 with secret exit AFAIR

EDIT:

Just contacted @DukeOfDoom.

He told me he's making E3M6 with a secret exit, so we have one more

E2M5 (Made by me) has a secret exit.

SilverMiner already answered you, anyway I'll think to change the exit to secret exit in the maps that need one when I compile it, if you guys don't want to make one

[magicsofa]

3 days left

are there any slots unaccounted for? I could do another quickie

[Danz]

I'm gonna have to opt out. Thought I would be able to do a small map, but i'm just overwhelmed with RL stuff currently.
 

Y'all can take the ep2 slot.

[BoxY]

I have something in the oven for E2 that should be playable in a couple of days, I'll post it here as soon as I can to get as much feedback as possible before the final deadline.

[Walter confetti]

Ok, I'll give danz spot to Boxy.

@magicsofa you can make a episode 2 or episode 4 map if you like, since two of the authors (camBreaker and PasokonDeacon) aren't around this project from quite long time now... I think to have saw Philnemba map screenshot on the WIP thread...

Edited December 30, 2020 by Walter confetti

[SilverMiner]

May I make another map?

[Walter confetti]

Sure! For what episode?

[SilverMiner]

for E4 with a secret exit

[Walter confetti]

You've got it

Quirky map, @SilverMiner. I like it! It looks really weird but there's plenty of fun action. You might wanna check a couple of thing though:

Spoiler

- Couldn't exit the map in Eternity and PrBoom+ 2.5.17. The reason I think is because line 768 is too close to the door's D1 action, so the player can't cross it to lower the teleport or open the exit door for that matter. It works in GZDoom.

- The midi doesn't play in PrBoom+ 2.5.17. It works in Eternity and GZDoom.

- Teleport thing in sector 100 is flagged only as hard. Lacks flags for easy and medium.

 

[SilverMiner]

Ok, I gonna fix it

EDIT:

The midi would've played in 2.5.1.7 if there will be proper umapinfo. Otherwise D_E3M2 is played

EDIT2:

Exit door and teleport spot fixed, link is the same

Happy new year friends! Let's finish this megawad!

[magicsofa]

Wait so, what slot is wydoomer's map going into? The list says M3 and M4 are open but the map was intended for M8 but then roebloz made M8 .....

[Walter confetti]

I'll find out where to put it in the mapset...

Edited December 31, 2020 by Walter confetti

[magicsofa]

Okey, here's E2M4 (but maybe it should be 3, so M4 can be a halfway boss map?)

It's called... "Fields of Insanity"

[Walter confetti]

Thanks! Adding it to the map list!

[SilverMiner]

So the last one we are waiting for is E3M6

Any thoughts on mapinfo/ending texts?

 

My thoughts are the following:

For Boom ports w/o umapinfo - write dehacked as usual

For PrBoom+UM - maybe write umapinfo, it's not necessary (we could use musinfo to change musics in E4 when needed even in older PrBoom+)

For Zdoom/Eternity - write fragglescript in maps' headers (so that no need to write two mapinfos for both these ports and also we will have additional compatibility with less popular ports like Legacy and SMMU. And also the maps will remain unbound to their ExMy numbers so no need to change MAPINFO when e.g. the map is moved to another episode)

 

IMHO, dehacked and musinfo for e4 will be enough
