[Ultimate Doom Community Project] Tribute Quilt - let's make a map out of 36 segments to celebrate Doom's anniversary [Beta v3, updated 08.06]

[ImpRevenant]

Hi, I'm a new mapper, I'd like to claim e2m8 : tower of babel

[ViolentBeetle]

@Rorix in addition, for now I'm sticking to one segment per person until we start running out of applicants.

[RubyAurora]

OK!!!
Here's it, my E2M1 segment:
E2M1.rar
 

[CBM]

well...I just might have to take e4m4 then

fixed my section and added few details: tribu24.zip

The alignement and size on all exits has somehow gotten worse. But I can probably align them myself and that would be easier than communicate all issues, if this is OK with you.

You probably meant treasure to be in the isolated room behind teleporter, right? Otherwise, no complains.

Perfect, I'll leave everything to you!

[DrinkyBird]

hm, I'm kinda crap at mapping, but I'd like to join in something for once. I'll take E1M4.

[The Fabulous Cube]

I'm new to mapping, too.

I'd like to claim E2M6 - Halls of the Damned. 

It certainly won't be a low effort shitpost, I'll try not to have a high effort shitpost.

Looks great and recognizable, but you overextended past the 1024 box a bit. The fireblu line is what should be on the edge. Shouldn't be that hard to fix.

All fixed. Updated MAP

[CBM]

E4M4 tribute done:

 

uses tags 340, 341, 342 for lift, closets and teleport

 

has all 4 exits, placed key in what used to be the bfg area

 

I'm using nukage instead of lava because I then get to use some brown nukage edge textures

Well I suddenly turned ill yesterday evening but I've still managed to work on it. It's unfinished, of course, especially the texturing:

It's a mini E1M4! I had no idea what to do with the swastika room so I draw a crude smiley instead :)

There's only three entrances but I could probably shuffle around the northern bit to add one there if needed.

And another Soul Sphere.  That map's just not right without that one!  

[ViolentBeetle]

I'm sorry for not being able to give feedback in timely fashion, most likely I'll be able to do that tomorrow.

[ImpRevenant]

Ok, here it Is, as I said, I'm not a professional doom mapper, I believe I followed the instructions correctly, but If there's any issue, just tell me

Added a lift to the plasma section incase you fall into the blood.

@ViolentBeetle Not sure if you saw the update linked in the quote, since e4m5 isn't green on the spreadsheet, so I just wanted to make sure.

Can you move the lines so they don't lie on bounding box either? It wouldn't be hard to adress but it's probably better if you do that to fully comply with your vision? The idea is that only doors would touch each other, and while if you are alone was to do it wouldn't be the problem, it would not be fair for others.

Half the map it used to be, lol. I'll accept it.

My bad, I think I missed it. I'm accepting your map too.

 

PS Some submissions come in the slot that matches the prototype map, it's not a big deal but it's more convenient to me if it's in E1M1 so I could idclev to the original map to refresh and compare in the same session.

Something like this? I hope this is right.

No, you are pushing the walls outwards. I wanted you to shrink the room.

The point is that no matter what there won't be inadvisable connection between the two segments, because lines on the edges are only the deliberate connection points in the middle.

[DrinkyBird]

Ok, my E1M4 is done, I think: https://wads.firestick.games/drinkybird_tribute_e1m4.wad

Uses tags 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 46, 48, and 49.

Accepted. I was always bad with the secrets in Doom, was platform raising to soul sphere with no way to call it down like that originally?

Indeed. Seems everything's good now, accepted too.

[ViolentBeetle]

A little milestone, we have now 16 complete submissions which would be enough for a solid 4x4 square. 6x6 would be cooler though.

The claims seem to have winded down, meaning I'll probably open the option for second square claims.

[Faceman2000]

Sweet! Here's E2M7:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1eb7D8NGzoMM5Um17Q6N0rWWc09v8RG0a/view?usp=sharing

 

And here's an updated E3M5, with difficulty settings in place and some more gore:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U-RwA4D-Q4qn1AzHaL-r_M6-Z8F0w4U3/view?usp=sharing

 

As before, I gave the player all weapons except the BFG at the start, but it can be beat with just a shotgun and chaingun. Some of the entrances give you a bit of a hot start, but it's all beatable without power weapons. You can put it wherever you see fit and it'll play fine.

If you're opening up for second submissions, I'd like to claim E4M6.

I just noticed your submission is off the grid and this is the problem for teleport flats. Not sure how I missed that. This needs to be fixed somehow.

 

On the other hand E2M7 looks fine, I'm accepting this one.

Ah. Yes, that makes sense. Let me mess around with it and get back to you.

[ViolentBeetle]

I figure I'll bite the bullet and take E3M2 for myself. It'll probably be a pain to draw.

 

And while I'm not penalizing suddenly dropping in with a map, you should probably still announce you'll take it so we don't end up with overlaps.

@ViolentBeetle, any chance you'd let me whip up some GATE flats that are offset a bit? I know you're trying to avoid custom textures, but it's gonna be a pain reworking the map to tile correctly. I could replace the GATE flats with TLITE if you need me to; just don't know that it'll capture the spirit of the original the same way.

Ok, I guess. Only because I didn't notice it earlier. And everyone else can borrow them too if needed.

I guess it won't screw with the project too much and it's kinda annoying to have to align portal. Same with marbface on the floor, if you really need, you can edit alignment, though it would be cooler if you didn't need them.
