Recreate Plutonia from Memory! (CP) (Completed)

[DFF]

If @DRON12261 doesn't want it, I'd happily take map 12. That was the map I originally hoped to make for this, but I've already gotten a few maps so no pressure

[DRON12261]

@DFF You can take it, I haven't started anything yet.

@Engired If any mappers get lost and you need a map (with no other interested mappers), give me a call, I can probably find time for a speedmap.

[DFF]

Alrighty, here's Map12: Wood5

Despite having a much clearer memory of this map as opposed to some others, this was a rather hard map to recreate from memory. The multiple branching paths and height variation made recalling the layout very difficult, and in truth I had to peak at the original map once or twice only because I got to a point where my geometry completely did not align with how the map would play out (I knew once i made it, that it was wrong and would not work, so i needed to re-align myself to at least get the flow correct and not super incorrect). I still made quite a few memory judgement calls though, like i remember the yellow key but never knew what it did since the original door was unmarked.

I'm currently waiting on @SilverMiner @ThatWeNGuy @noob_killer012345678 and @JacaCaca. I do need a response back in a few days, just to make sure you're all still working on the maps, or I have no choice but to open the slots. I really need to get work done on this too!!

What do you mean? my map was submitted back in November

[SilverMiner]

Funny thing: I just read that a year ago I took a map03 slot and I've been all that time thinking I've taken map04 (and even drew some sectors).

Wow cool, map03 should be easier for me to draw than map04

Sorry, I must've missed it when I last updated it (I swear I updated it sometime after you posted it idk)

[Engired]

I am hopefully back to try to do the final stages; I need MAP03 and MAP13 done, but by the end of today I promise I'll get a finished build. This project will not be cancelled without me saying so by the way, and I really do need to stop going on hiatuses (!!), but this project is still active. Map13 is now open as it looks like the person making the map hasn't visited this website since February 17th. However, @noob_killer012345678, if you wish to continue, your map takes priority, and any submitted maps for MAP13 will be added as secret levels instead. As usual! Also quick mention to @SilverMiner for MAP03.

[Engired]

I re downloaded and essentially had to re compile the whole wad so hopefully it still works. This is mainly because I want to make sure it's actually up to date, because just re doing it gives me a much higher chance of not making a mistake. I have to play through the whole wad, and I'll update if anything is important. I also have to do the titles which I may get done, but I might also not by today.

I'd like to try making MAP13 in the next few days. If I fail, I'll turn it back over quickly.

I think it will be the best doom game recreation ever.

Progress report, I've done layout, and it's completely busted.

I may finish this thing today or tomorrow, it will be cursed. I'm pretty sure I turned rooms the wrong way, but I'm out of checks

[Scorpius]

Oh dang I kinda left this in the dust... I'll get on that MAP21 track very soon! Might even take on some unclaimed ones too.

[ViolentBeetle]

My first version of MAP13. Might re-iterate on it later.

The map refused to stick to my memory, particularly detailing-wise, and this is definitely the one from "If I don't remember detailing, it had none" school of thought.

 

Map name: Bitcoin

By the way, I think you incorrectly deleted mapper for MAP12, even though I think DFF made it.

I haven't updated it, but the map should be in the compiled wad. I'll go through the thread to check for correct authorship when I do credits and map titles.

Hype. This is the last map that isn't submitted, right?

Noticed the OP is missing some texts. Here's my earnest attempt to recreate them after reading them a few times over.

 

C1: You gloat over the steaming carcass of the guardian. You’ve wrestled the accelerator from the claws of hell. You look around. Damn! There doesn’t seem to be a working prototype anywhere – the demon must’ve taken it deeper with them. If you can’t recover it, all your efforts are for nothing.

Keep fighting, keep killing, keep going through the demons until you find one that works. Oh, and don’t forget to keep living too.

 

C3: You’ve based and battered your way into the Devil-Hive. Your mission becomes search-and-destroy for the evil Gatekeeper whose numerous offsprings are cascading into Earth. He’s bad, but you know someone who’s even worse!

You grin evilly and check your gear as you prepare to give the demons hell of your own making.

C4: The gatekeeper’s evil face is splattered all over the place. His destroyed body forms an inverse portal that sucks in the last of the prototype particle accelerators. You won. The hell is going back to pounding the evil dead folks instead of the good living ones. You should remember to ask your grandkids to put a rocket launcher into the coffin with you – in case you’ll need to do one final cleanup.

I forgot to add the text, but it was finished a while ago. I could still use one or two of these though when I compile the text into the project though!

 

I'll compile it later today, and start work on the release. Music is still open, and I am aware of some bugs that I'll need to fix, but the rest of the work is on my side. I'll attempt to release this by the weekend.

[Engired]

Quick update on compilation, text is now included as are the two new maps, however I may have to wait until tomorrow to get the final compilation out. Still have all the names for the maps to do, which unfortunately takes a long time, but it will be out sometime tomorrow.

Do you plan on making a new release already and will wait for music?

I'm not gonna wait for all the music to be done pre release, instead I plan to make a new thread to get the rest of the midis done there. Then I can also do the original doom's soundtrack at the same time, saving me some time.

[Plerb]

Can I claim the MAP29 midi?

[Plerb]

Just made the MAP29 midi! I didn't listen to the original at all after I laid the first note. It was surprisingly tedious trying to remember the notes, but it only took like an hour to make.

I have just realised MAP22 was never actually officially finished. It's playable though, so I will go through with it, but it's probably important to note that here before I release it? Regardless, MAP03 and MAP28 weren't submitted with names, so I can come up with names myself, but if anybody wants to give a couple names I'm open to it!!

Funny name suggestion for MAP03: "I wish line type 242 was real"

Only people who are familiar with mapping might understand the reference to how much more convenient Boom makes creation of the invisible platforms.

I thought you'd assume my map03's name as Aztec.

So like let it be Aztec Benton

EDIT:

@Engired

I've changed my mind, let it be "Jack Benton 242"

MAP28: Bowser's Demesne or Luigi's Not-a-Mansion (in reference to original MIDI track).
