Provsparse - Single Map PWAD for GZDoom | 15 Minutes

[Matakrow]

                         

 

Provsparse is a Doom 2 map made in about 2 weeks for Ramp 2022.
Months later, I've decided that it should get it's own release.
This map takes place in the same universe as Improv.

Sheesh. I've been so unlucky ! The map was really impressive but half of the scripts were glitchy with me. So I couldn't finish it. I'm so disappointed because that was a total different experience than the others wads for once ! I had some Build Engine vibes to some moments, I didn't know you could do that with the Doom Engine ! This map had so much potential ! Oh gosh... >_<

Script Errors?

What specific parts of the map broke for you?

[Proxy-MIDI]

The beginning for example. When I defeated all of the monsters (revenants, hell knights etc...) and push the button nothing happened. I looked for all the corners of the map and there was nothing. :/ @Matacrat

Did you check your inventory?

[Proxy-MIDI]

Hmmmm... No. There was something to do with one of the weapons ? :O

An object that can only be used with the Heretic/Hexen/Strife inventory keys should be given to you at that point. Try pressing the button with enter, as that should be the default Inventory activate key.

Interesting little map, I like the grenades that allow for some quick splash damage and it's much needed with the way this map throws arch viles at you! Lots of scripting stuff here, being locked in and having to kill everything to unlock the room is a bit of a pain but whatever.

I'm having script errors as well; this file is an ipk3 instead of a pk3; what exactly is that? Either way, this is what I get, in case it helps:

The ipk3 format is used for stand-alone wads (stuff like Rekkr), for regular Doom mods, just use a pk3.
