What is your favorite texture from classic doom?

[StarSpun5000]

Either a wall or a flat texture, out of the 4 Iwads (Those being Ultimate Doom, Doom2, Plutonia, and TNT) which texture is your favorite?

Out of all of them I've always had an affinity for this texture, just something about the oddly pleasant color makes it perfect for rugged outdoor terrain.

A lot of the textures can be used so greatly and can look absolutely amazing, but I gotta give credit where credit is due, too many great and iconic maps made up of mostly:

As for flats, here the former is just so versatile and great to use as floors or ceilings for gray textures, the latter is just a texture I've really liked using recently. Again, a lot of cool flats in the iwads.

Obviously it was also popular with id Software because it originally came from Wolfenstein 3D, but then was reused in Doom and even in Quake!

STEPTOP, because I'm a 3D-bridges fetichist.

SUPPORT3.

A-MOSRK2

CEIL5_1 and FLOOR4_8

I don't think I've made a single level that doesn't use CEIL5_1 or a variant of it.

[RastaManGames]

I am gonna be in minority with this choice:

[heliumlamb]

MARBGRAY, CEIL5_2

As FIRBLU was already mentioned, I'll share my number two:

Although I never use it and I see it seldom used I really like this one:

 

 

 

[Andromeda]

STARTAN2

[Midnight_00]

RROCK01. It's the floor texture with the red rocks.

[Codename_Delta]

Either the ICKWALLs or SP_FACE6 (the baron one)

 

Then there's the CEMENTs and in 4th there's FIREBLU.

 

Oh yeah, don't forget about METAL2 and it's variants, and all of the SHAWNs and SILVERs.

I give PLANET1 the love Doom II never did and have been almost since I started mapping

 

I never leave home without it

 

(My standby answer is FIREBLU but nobody ever talks about PLANET1 and how pretty and cool it is)

This video represents some of the faces I make when I see FIREBLU outed as the greatest texture in the history of Doom level design.

As to my favorite Doom 1 textures.

 

   

 

FLAT5_4 CEIL5_2 CEIL5_1 FLOOR7_1 (Honorary mentions to FLAT1 and FLAT4 - the plain gray and plain blue flats)

 

These are the real MVP textures in Doom1. The more mapping I do, the more I appreciate how amazing these guys are. They are plain, yet still have enough contrast to not look dull. They make other textures look great. These are the heavy lifters, the tireless office workers, the unnoticed flats that allow the more unusual, 'highlight' textures to really shine. If FIREBLU is the cocaine snorting rock star of the Doom texture set, these guys are the roadies.

DORED from TNT is one of my favourites. Very evil looking.
