Question about TNT's textures

[StarSpun5000]

I was looking at the TNT textures and I just have to ask. Where are these strange SAW textures used? I can't for the life of me recognize where they are used.

Not only are they not used in any of the maps, they're not even defined in any texture patches. Check TNT's TEXTURE1 lump and you won't find these textures anywhere, so they can't actually be used in the wad without modifying it. It's a shame we didn't get to see that saw be used anywhere - it's got that wonderful '90s crunchiness that I love so much about TNT.

I would absolutely love to see what they had in mind for putting a circular saw into TNT

Same tbh, the unremastered TNT textures get a lot of shit for being crude and weird but that's exactly why I love them

There are remastered TNT textures?

Sorry that was dumb and misleading, TNT 2 has some textures that are fixed up versions of the original ones.  They're actually really nice and cool and mesh better with the Doom II assets than the original textures do, but the original TNT textures have their own goofy crunchy charm.

Yeah I thought so. I'm very familiar with TNT and it's maps so my inability to recognize this texture was bugging the crap outta me. thanks for confirming!

Check the animation section, you'll see them used in SLADRIP, along with an animated version of COMPSTA2, an adorkable spider web that looks like babby's first clipart, a reel tape computer panel, the circular saw, and an animated UAC logo.

 

The texture itself is used in MAP06, MAP08, MAP11, MAP19 and MAP20 -- mostly on MAP19. All 13 frames of the animation combined (SLADRIP1, SLAD2 to SLAD11, SLADRIP3), there are two instances of it on MAP06 and on MAP20, four on MAP08 and on MAP11, and a whole 19 on MAP19. But that doesn't tell which part of the texture are actually visible. I think it's mostly the computer stuff; the circular saw and the embarrassingly terrible spider web are not visible in any map I think. (I haven't checked.)

@Gez Oh wow, excellent findings! I should have checked more thoroughly, it seems. I recall the spider web being used in at least one of THT: Threnody's maps, at least. I'm gonna have to ask somebody to use that saw in a map at some point, I've never seen it in action before and it's just too good to miss.

An unanimated variant of the spider web texture is used in the brown maze/spiral on Mount pain.

Superb research and knowledge as ever.

 

As a minor aside, I am pretty sure that the spider web is used in Mt Pain iirc (In the maze section of the map.)

Only the unanimated version, as mentioned above.

Thank you for the correction.
