PSX DooM: The Forgotten Chapter

[Dantosking]

            
Hello everybody! I'm glad to release my own project with a very long buildtime. It's a special psx doom tribute with some extra stuff on secret maps. A forgotten chapter's story started around autumn of 2010. Me and my cousin Seifer just began to create some simple wads (I made not only whitemare 2 map05 as doomwiki tells xd). I am very huge fan of psx doom for a very long time. Before the first release I found Threshold of Pain by John Gourley (alias scalliano) and felt a real extra inspiration. So what about releases:
-Master of Cooperation (first name of this project) - 31/Dec/2010 Download
-PSX DooM: The Forgotten Chapter (beta) - 8/Jan/2015 (total rebuild) Download
-PSX DooM: The Forgotten Chapter - 3/Mar/2023 GZDoom version Zandronum version

Special thanks to: DexiaZ, Nicothefuggit, Seifer, Amsek, Dartpower, Dron12261
I hope you enjoy it

Congrats on the release!

 

I really love how it turned out at the end!

Now there's another great PSX-style megawad.

Good job!

Great to see that this project finally was released. Time to check this stuff out ;-)

Can you play this on PsyDoom?

I don't believe it's possible, since there are custom assets and other bunch of stuff that only GZDOOM supports. So far there is a wad version for Zandronum, which was made for coop sessions and such.

Doom 64 fans will like this (@Immorpher @Nevander ?)

 

There are secret maps in this project, and one of them:

 

Yeah, it changes all monsters and weapons to Doom 64 visuals, but only for this map. After beating this level all weapons and monsters (and textures) are back to classic Doom visuals. Cool feature so far, I don't remember such in wads at all.

[Immorpher]

@Dexiaz that is very cool!

[Dantosking]

Added full walkthrough in first message :)

I think I found a bug. When I switched from the shotgun to another weapon, I couldn't reselect the shotgun, no matter what.

Sourceport? This happens on any map or only after map03? Or it's happens only on map31-32?

GZDoom. It happened already at MAP01, but I can't be sure about the rest. Might need to test further on to see if that's the case as well.

Which is the best version to run this with LZdoom?

Unfortunately we didn't test this for LZDoom D:

Hmm, it's first case with unselecting weapon... which version you using?

I could find only one of them , How many are there ?

[ludicrous_peridot]

Awesome to see this. Thank you so much!

 

EDIT: in fact could not resist adding these to the list of maps which ConsolUX themes itself as PSX for, except that for secret one it will theme as N64.

There are 2 secret levels in total: Map31 (Doom 64) and Map32 (PSX Doom Forever). Maps are not connected, so you don't have to search the Map32 entrance in Map31. The secret exit to Map32 is located in Map09.
