Beta V2
Updated:
Map03
Map05
Map07
Map15

Changed small font to classic doom gold

Removed MAPINFO

 

Map16 is unfinished; Map15 will exit to Map17. As I understand it MAP15 also needs finishing as well as MAP20 and some of the latter maps.

 

Map21 has not been imported yet, will be available in RC1.

 

Several levels will have future detailings added in future releases as this project allows for an infinite detailing time pass.

Greetings and Salutations! Welcome to PUSS 26, Clandestine Castle Crashing TWO! The Sequel to Clandestine Castle Crashing One! We're getting itchy to find some secrets we left behind in medieval times, so we've ramshackled together a time machine made out of GSTONE and magic to warp us back to the good old days when people would shit in a bucket and then hyuck it into the cobblstone street below! You heard that right! Cobblestone! Those barbarians hadn't even invented pavement yet! Disgusting!

 

Thankfully shotguns and demons existed back in the year 666. I just googled it and it turns out that was 400 years before the medieval era. Humbug! Regardless, you're gonna be using some shotguns to rip through castles created with a resource pack that I made using a bunch of textures from other resource packs. Call it a resource pack's resource pack. I let @Danlex out of the PUSS dungeon in exchange for finding some nice dehacked demons to use for this project, so expect to see some exciting changes in builder!

 

 

 YE HAVETH HOURS OF SEVEN TO SEQUESTER SECTORS INTO A MAP! - You have seven hours to make the general layout of your level and to check all of the rules required for the map. Detailing the map and monster/thing placement are outside of the main timer.

 

 

 THOU MUST MAKETH A MAP CASTLE! That means crenellations! Big walls! Towers! Bricks! Peasantry! The castle can be the whole of the map or a key focal point in your medieval village. Please keep in mind the size of your level, don't want too many epic scaled gauntlet maps. No techbases either.

 

There's also a loose story that you're playing as an ancient ancestor of the Blaskowicz family tree (not the alien one) named Knight Guy. Essentially he's going around crashing castles looking for something... what that something is is up for you to decide! I don't think he really cares about anything other than killing demons though...

 

  Thine map must haveth a quantity of secrets that I hereby declare to be no less than the number TEN! - These have to be earned secrets. No mandatory secret sectors on the exit staircase. Your secrets must be found and earned. The more expansive and incidental, the greater. Even better, there is no maximum to how many secrets you hide in the map. Either way, every secret must be able to be found. But that doesn’t mean they need to be easy to find.

 

Some further tips: Make sure to get creative with your secrets. A secret powersphere behind a false wall is okay, but a secret passageway within the castle walls that takes you to a secret area full of goodies (and a fight) is much better. Really try to sell the mysterious castle aesthetic. Hidden passage ways will earn you a lot of brownie points with me.

 

 Thine musn’t secrete thoust’ve progression! - The secrets of your map MUST be non-mandatory. Don’t hide your exit key behind an arch-vile jump into a fake wall in a secret slaughter arena.

 

 MAPS WILL BE CONSTRUCTED-ETH IN DOOM 2 BOOM FORMAT! TARGET PORT PRBOOM COMPLEVEL 9 HUZZAH! TEST ACCORDINGLY HUZZAH! I'll also ask that you include CO-OP starts and Difficulty Settings.

 

 RESOURCE USAGE IS REQUIRED. I'LL PUT YOU IN THE PILLORY IF YOU DON'T! CLICK THIS LINK RIGHT HERE TO DOWNLOAD! I may update it from time to time to add textures. If you have any requests (within reason), shoot them my way.

 

 **OPTIONAL** - Add a secret exit to your map: Included with this secret exit, included an additional (secret) map. This additional map has a timer of 1 hour and a MAXIMUM of 5 secrets (no secret exit included!) Rules for speedmapping maps for this project are the same for standard submissions. 
 

MAPS ARE DUE (on my birthday) ON APRIL 27TH 2023 at 11:59 PM NEXT MONTH! 

 

 

- Your mapping time can be nonconsecutive.

 

- Your timer will only go down when you are mapping or playtesting. Speedmaps will be under the honor rule. Neither you nor I can prove if a map went over the time limit or not, but trained eyes can see what is and is not a speedmap. If you cheat, people will notice.

 

- Any time in Slade used to give a custom sky, midi, etc. is outside of your mapping time.     

 

- I would recommend spending some time looking over the texture pack before you begin mapping, so that you don’t waste time scrolling.

 

- Once your time is up, if you haven’t beaten your map, please spend time to verify that your level is beatable.

We call this the BluePineapple rule because I always break it.

 

 **AFTER YOUR TIME LIMIT IS UP:** 

The point of the time limit is to put a fire under your seat to force you to finish the map. The intention isn't really to 'challenge' you. The scope for PUSS projects is that I want as many people to make the best thing they can with interesting themes and restrictions. I want you to finish the layout of your level, get a general feel for what the gameplay is gonna be, and get a rough to perhaps imagined level of what the visuals will look like in the allotted time limit. You can spend any amount of time you want thereafter refining what you've sent to me.

 

- Map submissions must include a builder screenshot of the layout you came up with after 7 hours and then a screenshot of the map you refined from it. I'm OK with you submitting a map before you refine it if you need feedback/suggestions.

 

Again, the post 7 hour map timer is to prevent you from adding major gameplay arenas, new rooms, and a whole bunch of other stuff. Adding background details the player won't access is fine but generally speaking the closer you stick to the layout the more comfortable I am.

 

This screenshot from @Blexor's PUSS 22 map is an incredible example of this screenshot rule:

 

- There is no cap to how many maps you can submit to these events. 

Whoever submits the most will be able to become king of the server. Beats getting a sword from the water lady.

 

Any bug fixing/map changes are due to me 1 week after I upload the final playthrough video of the last submission.

Should be some time in the new medieval era coming shortly after the end of nuclear winter.

My discord server, The Pineapple Under the Sea, recently just got over the yellow death, so I'd recommend you stop on by and help us rebuild our economy! We welcome everyone of all mapping backgrounds, from the lowliest peasant to even the mightiest kings, all are welcome to the inn for a tankard of mead and a test of their mapping abilities! Just don't expect to find any cheese. The aliens took it all unfortunately. Thankfully for you though, we're just getting right around to the part of the medieval era where hot soapy water was invented, so you won't have to worry about walking around with dirty hands.

The Secret Rose by Yeats:
 

FAR-OFF, most secret, and inviolate Rose,
Enfold me in my hour of hours; where those
Who sought thee in the Holy Sepulchre,
Or in the wine-vat, dwell beyond the stir
And tumult of defeated dreams; and deep
Among pale eyelids, heavy with the sleep
Men have named beauty. Thy great leaves enfold
The ancient beards, the helms of ruby and gold
Of the crowned Magi; and the king whose eyes
Saw the pierced Hands and Rood of elder rise
In Druid vapour and make the torches dim;
Till vain frenzy awoke and he died; and him
Who met Fand walking among flaming dew
By a grey shore where the wind never blew,
And lost the world and Emer for a kiss;
And him who drove the gods out of their liss,
And till a hundred morns had flowered red
Feasted, and wept the barrows of his dead;
And the proud dreaming king who flung the crown
And sorrow away, and calling bard and clown
Dwelt among wine-stained wanderers in deep woods:
And him who sold tillage, and house, and goods,
And sought through lands and islands numberless years,
Until he found, with laughter and with tears,
A woman of so shining loveliness
That men threshed corn at midnight by a tress,
A little stolen tress. I, too, await
The hour of thy great wind of love and hate.
When shall the stars be blown about the sky,
Like the sparks blown out of a smithy, and die?
Surely thine hour has come, thy great wind blows,
Far-off, most secret, and inviolate Rose?

That's a good amount of time, and detailing can be done afterwards, but I'm not going to commit to joining until I have a rough layout hand-sketched. No deadline was mentioned, so does that mean the end of April?

 

Keycards would look a little out of place, wouldn't they? Has anyone made sprites for suitable-looking keys? (suitable colored banners would also be nice to replace the DOORX indicators.)

I have a few skeleton-key sprites lying around that could work. Skull keys would work for the aesthetic.

 

I will work on an alternative to replace the keycards though.

 

 

ALSO: I just shot out a hotfix that fixes a signal 11 crash on PRBoom (had to adjust Status Bar face offsets)

  Reveal hidden contents

Feels weird being used as the example. Not that it's a problem, mind.

 

More importantly, though, this sounds incredibly awesome. I do love me some castles, and medieval castles no less so. I'll definitely have to contribute something to this (which should hopefully make up for the fact that I never finished that map for Lunacy).

 

About the keys: I was actually thinking of making some older-style key sprites for a solo wad I had planned. I'm not an accomplished spriter by any means but I've done small-scale stuff before, and wanted to try making something that wasn't as complicated as, say, monster sprites. All this is to say that I could try making those key sprites sooner rather than later, and if they turn out to be up to the project standard, I'd be more than happy to see them used here.

 

[Snowy44]

Love all the sprite replacements, the chaingun looks particularly nice.

I'll try my best to get at least one map in.

Many thanks to @Egregor! We have doubled the size of our resource pack! Don't forget that you have infinite detailing time for this event! Make great use of these textures given here!

Made a small update to the texture pack. See patch notes below:

 

CCC2 Respak Patch Notes:

+ Removed titties

[Stabbey]

I'm doing some testing of Boom line action 244. So far the test looks promising. If I do it right, I can have the players start out in a tower which will appear to be the tower in the main map, go down a good-sized spiral staircase, and come out inside the castle and the map should show that the bottom of the tower will appear to be in the same place on the map as the top of the tower.  EDIT: No, that's not reasonable to do given how far you can see ahead. I can two of balcony, top room, and ground in the same place, but not all three. Okay.

 

But hmmm... will I allow the player to look back up at the tower from the ground level, and would that therefore cause skybox problems with the lowered sky blocking the tower? That might be fine.

EDIT 2: I'm not sure I'll be able to come up with a map for this. Lots of time provided, sure, but I just don't have enough inspiration.

As you can see I'm actually submitting 3 maps. I know that the rules specifically state that the secret level should NOT have another secret exit, but it's pretty important for me thematically to have that last third one, so I would like to humbly request to be allowed to have this nesting doll of secret levels.

Super secret level was speedmapped in under 30 mins and is absolutely tiny, can probably be beaten in under a minute or so.

I've extended the deadline to the 30th of April (so I can finish my map). That means there are 13 days left! EEK unlucky number! Quell your superstitions by watching me make a level! Perhaps you'll catch some inspiration for your own?
