Xeogred Posted July 8, 2021 UV continuous with saves GZDoom 3h48m Beauty Level: 11/10, apparently I took 64 screenshots. Right when I thought I was going to take a break from Doom and have had an itch to replay Ion Fury... this gave me that fix. The quickest way to my heart is cyberpunk, 90's VGM remixes, and oh man oh man. This aesthetic is off the charts along with some awesome gameplay along the way. So much of this felt like a top tier Build Engine game, which is an impressive feat for the Doom engine to mimic visually. There were so many Sega tunes I could recall here, Sonic 3D Blast, Street of Rage, Shinobi III, all those Blade Runner sound effects, oh man. I could not put this thing down and just beat the entire thing in a few sessions today. The difficulty wasn't too bad compared to what I've been playing this summer, but UV does get a tad slaughtery in some sections and ammo management can get tricky (felt like I was low on rockets sometimes, but I usually had plasma to spare). But yeah, a fun romp that never gets too hard, nor was I ever tripped up by the level design or any key hunts. While the neon lights and skyscrapers will probably get a lot of love, I'm a sucker for the dirty underbelly of cyberpunk slums, sewers, bathrooms, urban streets and all that too and this definitely nailed that atmosphere as well. Most of the tunes are pretty upbeat and fun. Makes me wonder what a darker atmospheric take could be on something like this hehe. I uploaded like 20 some images to an album. Don't want to ruin any surprises or spoil the moments of appreciation, so I'll just drop a link here and click if anyone's curious and wants to see more! https://imgur.com/a/lYV5Je3 This was my first DBP venture... wonder if I peaked already! lol, this was freaking GNARLY. Damn good stuff folks. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post
galileo31dos01 Posted July 8, 2021 Tiny little petite small misalignments in m03: Spoiler at the first secret uh, going to the dark room with imps and revs Also the secret room for the health bonuses in m02 counted as 4, not sure if on purpose though. This set is amazing so far btw 4 Quote Share this post Link to post
TJG1289 Posted July 9, 2021 Finally got some time to play this. Played the first 6 maps so far. HOLY SHIT I'm pretty sure this is the best DBP so far. It's amazing. I love the visuals so much. It's the Doom version of Ion Fury, and that's extremely high praise. That first shot you get when you start the WAD is so comparable to the first shot of Ion Fury as well, with that amazing view of the city. The colors work so well, and I love the little pieces of world building you get. The in-universe billboards, the graffiti, map 06's rain, and the audio clips that play occasionally give this WAD so much personality. It's one of the few WADs I've played in a while that feels like it's in a world that's inhabited by actual people. The level design is pure Build-engine-like, with those city maps. City maps are probably my favorite style of map, and these so far have been top notch. Music selection so far has been great, but that's cause I've recognized 2 different Sonic songs so far. Map 6's understated track is great too, combined with the rain gives that map a fantastic atmosphere. I honestly can't wait to finish this, and the fact that I have 15 more maps in this style is awesome. Seriously, how do you guys keep doing this month after month? I haven't played a bad DBP yet (though to be fair I haven't played all of them). This series is seriously the best. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post
Optimus Posted July 9, 2021 That was a massive and one of the best DBPs for sure! It took me more hours than I expected. Too many cool levels in it and great palette. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post
SuperCupcakeTactics Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) @TJG1289 Thank you this really is a passion project! I managed to make like 5 maps for this when I usually have a hard enough time making just one, and that first MAP01 did give me quite the mapper's block but once that was out of the way I was a free mapping machine. MAP06's MIDI is 'Crystalline' by @Psyrus (please notice me we did your amazing MIDIs justice) and his music fits this project perfectly. Enjoy the rest of your cyberpunk adventure! @GarrettChan MAP17 really is the 'Deus Ex' map! I knew I had to make it, and it was first inspired by those little moments turning the showers on and off in Hong Kong. I used Deus Ex: Human Revolution's Hengsha as reference and inspiration for the layout. To add on to the music list: TITLEMUS: Policenauts - End of The Dark INTERMUS: Phantasy Star Online - Image of Hero README: Snatcher - Innocent Girl Edited July 9, 2021 by SuperCupcakeTactics 9 Quote Share this post Link to post

It's just a bit too confusing to exploring in my taste, but I guess when you make a semi sand boxy map, this is bound to happen. Yeah, I do appreciate those small details that you can press on the sink, toilets and showers etc. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
P41R47 Posted July 9, 2021 A few bugs i found, guys. Map10 south area near the rooftop, just before the airduct corridor. Midtexture drips into the ground. At the end of the map, 3 monsters never teleported. The chaingunner on the closet near the start of the map before entering the building. And the two arachnatrons at the right end of the monster locker to the south, outside of the map. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

I noticed after release that there were some monsters in HMP and below that I meant to remove that I just unflagged for UV, so that's on my radar for the RC2 bugfix if it's in HMP or lower. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

At the end of map10 3 monsters still didn't teleported from their closets. I'm playing on HNTR, but i remember late that this is a DBP and usually there is no difficult setting aside from UV and UV with double amo and half damage on ITYTD. as far as i remember, i maxed out monsters and secrets on map03. :/ Edited July 9, 2021 by P41R47 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

There actually are some difficulty settings here but not every map has them - both of the Lunch Lunch maps have them and I believe some of the 40oz and SuperCupcakeTactics maps have them as well. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Map10 last area, with the pyramid and so, was seriously nice looking. That really help to wanna get further into the mapset, i suppose. I wonder why nobody ever atempted a Cyberpunk-ish theme like this one before. Edited July 9, 2021 by P41R47 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
galileo31dos01 Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) Few things on m17: - This dude doesn't teleport because there're no sectors linked to the tp lines. - Is this helmet just for decoration? I found it strange since it was the only single item you can't get - Maybe a hint to this secret could be added? I spent a lot of time looking for secrets in every detail but the mega armor only with iddt, unless I was missing a clue somewhere. In m14 you need to shoot to alert the final monsters, and I get that the zombiemen are supposed to be clickbait, though maybe some additional support could spawn on the rails near the exit like chaingunners or PEs, since it's too easy to hide there where the zombies will take ages to find you until the exit switch is available.

SuperCupcakeTactics Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) @galileo31dos01 Thank you for the error report. The hint to the megaarmor lies in the ceiling lights. It's the only monster closet with the smaller red dot lights where every other one has the vanilla larger ones. Edited July 9, 2021 by SuperCupcakeTactics 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Psyrus Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) 12 hours ago, SuperCupcakeTactics said: (please notice me we did your amazing MIDIs justice) Consider yourself noticed. Crystalline works quite well in that rain map, I agree, except it is a tad quiet. I fixed volume levels on my older midis recently, so I wonder if an older version got used. Good choice. Also a few of us are left wondering (or perhaps it has been addressed earlier and I missed it) and just need to know: What is the deal with the Peter and the Wolf sounds?

SuperCupcakeTactics Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) @Psyrus It's a sound bite used in Blade Runner 2049. Think of having your own theme music play whenever you enter your room its' purpose is similar to that. Edited July 10, 2021 by SuperCupcakeTactics 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
P41R47 Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) Instant love for map12. I love when there is a reference to another game on the mapsets. And Afraid of Monsters could had an awesome Doom reimagining. A.L.T. vibes all along. Excellent for sure! On a side note, the addon sounds are really good. I think they should be included on the regular wad, and chaingunners need to have the new chaingun sound on them, too. Edited July 10, 2021 by P41R47 3 Quote Share this post Link to post
VanaheimRanger Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) Got a signal 11 error during the "pyramid fight" in MAP10 (shortly after pressing both red and blue key switches) in DSDA-DOOM v0.19.7. Cause unknown, don't feel like playing back up to it to see if it's repeatable. EDIT: Okay, I tried it again and was able to complete the level the second time. Possibly just a fluke? Just PRBoom+ things, I guess? Edited July 10, 2021 by VanaheimRanger 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

Yeah I just tried it myself a few times and everything seemed to go fine. That area had an all-ghosts bug happen before so maybe it was that. Something to do with all the sectors and blockmap I guess. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

loveless Posted July 10, 2021 @SuperCupcakeTactics i played through map 10 last night, i had the same things happen as @VanaheimRanger. if there are too many monsters alive, i cannot reach the top of the pyramids without crashing. i had two crashes last night, one of them had every monster in the area become a ghost before signal 11 hit. i am using dsda-doom, cl2. otherwise, having a good time! the maps are pretty, short, and have plenty of good midis. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

The second time I did it I cleared all the enemies below before I even tried going up there, maybe that is why I was able to get it done. EDIT: I am on to MAP12, now...I have no idea what's going on anymore, lmao. EDIT 2: I finshed MAP12...I think I'm done playing Doom for a few hours at least, I need to let that experience settle in...

Keyboard_Doomer Posted July 15, 2021 Hello there, the wad really does look amazing so we're taking the opportunity to play it on Thursday Night Survival today. The session starts 5 hours from the time of this reply and you can expect the server to be fairly active for 4+ hours. Also a small bug report: MAP12 has 2 player 3 starts and 0 player 4 starts. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post
SuperCupcakeTactics Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) @Keyboard_Doomer Howdy! I suppose that means I'd better upload RC2 right now then! I was going to wait a couple more hours but here it comes (and thank you for the bug report I fixed that immediately after reading)! Also, MAP12 should be skipped in multiplayer as it's purely a single player experience. I've also just tested it on ZDaemon and the RSKY shows as ASHWALL for some reason on MAP01 and there's no music but seems fine everywhere else. Something to do with MAPINFO I presume but I don't see what could be the cause. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RC2 is ready now! If there're no other blatant bugs or other inconvenient issues then that's that! >>>AUGER;ZENITH RC2 DOWNLOAD!!!<<< Biggest changes: New MAP22 and a text file. Replaced ZSCRIPT with DECORATE (Broken glass will show up in Zandronum!) Renamed ZMAPINFO to MAPINFO (lol) Various bugfixes and things. MAP05 has more ammo as well as other things that should have been done the first time. MAP10 built in ZDBSP, maybe that'll fix the crashing. MAP15 I removed those annoying impassable lines. MAP19 has an extended outdoors playable area. Replaced HELP graphic with one that features the full message. Edited July 15, 2021 by SuperCupcakeTactics 4 Quote Share this post Link to post

(but desesperatelly hoping it :P) Aside from that, do you guys want a UMAPINFO lump? It could be use on almost all the right now popular source-port to jump from the last map to the cast roll. They are really easy to make and just need a couple of minutes. Edited July 15, 2021 by P41R47 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
