RAMP 2023 - Rabbit's All-Comers Mapping Project [RELEASED!]

Download from the RAMP 2023 Site

 

Welcome to the third edition of RAMP, and its biggest year ever! This is a project I started in 2021 to continue the spirit of TerminusEst13's DUMP projects, encouraging people new to Doom to give mapping a try and to get their creations into a wider project. It's a compilation of maps from incoming members of the Doom community, together with some regulars who are experimenting with some new ideas. This time, your quest is to use the submitted maps to bridge your way through a strange cave system and discover the secrets behind the artefacts you'll find in there.

 

Thank you for everyone's contributions and for helping each other out so wonderfully - we ended with a frankly ludicrous 296 maps by 228 authors. Have fun exploring the gigantic hub level and using your maps to find your way through the game.

 

(Tested on GZDoom 4.10.0 - some startup errors/warnings are normal and shouldn't impede your progress.)

 

See the RAMP landing page to see the previous two years' projects!

Hell YEAH!!

[Focusbreak]

oh man oh man oh man oh man!

 

Now I want to make my own map. Is it normal to have like a million ideas in your head but can't even make a single room when you first start? I -really- want to get in on this!

[OfficeHyena22]

Sign me up!

[DoctorNuriel]

COUNT ME IN! I've had a concept for a map in the back of my mind for about a year now, this seems like the perfect chance to actually sit down and put it together.

I've not really been able to dedicate time to mapping this year, but I'll try to put something in again this time.

[JJBoren]

Yes. Finally I get to use the room I made couple of months ago.

[DynamiteKaitorn]

OwO

[Cheshire Sphinx]

I would like to try my hand at this, I've wanted to make a (complete) single player/Co-Op map for years.

[LukeJR]

I misread the "comers" as "corners" xD I'd like to try this but I'm not sure if my mapping skills are up to your standards (Lecry)

You only have to make something playable. This project is for everyone after all.

The project is aimed at beginners, but everyone is welcome

Oh, so its annual then, tempting.

[MObreck]

Sounds fun. What's the policy on custom monster/decorations?

Those are allowed.

[yourlocalchef]

I am available to make something. Count me in!

[INfront95]

Just for clarification: We are using 32in24-15_tex_v2.wad and OTEX_1.1.WAD Texture packs , right?
So OTEX is a fair game.

Alright, count me in. I'll be making one of the more unique contributions. Show off my skills with ZScript.

[EagerBeaver]

I've made 2 short maps some time ago while experimenting with OTEX. The level geometry is done for both, all I need to do is complete the texturing and place some triggers in the right locations. They'll definitely be ready for release before the end of June. Can I contribute them to this project?

[Laughados]

I made a map in February that is for GZDoom (UDMF). How could I go about submitting it for this project?

Please make something original for this, instead of something that's already been released elsewhere.

[JustAthel]

Hmmm....... I DO have an idea for a sort of walking simulator in GZDoom type thing, but GZUDMF is a bit out of my comfort zone... I will consider taking part in this if that'd be alright!

[Silhouette 03]

Sign me up, please. I've been looking forward to this all year. Hopefully my map for this year will be even better than last year.

[DRON12261]

Hmm... I would have participated, but unfortunately I can't meet that deadline.

 

[noob_killer012345678]

I was part of 2022 making a kinda rushed but map, this time i wanna be more fleshed out

[Biodegradable]

I see RAMP is basically a new yearly DW tradition now, eh? Good on ya, Dave. ;^)

[Clippy]

Well I have to make at least 1 map for this lol

[Chookum]

I'm down to clown once more, but I've got a couple of other maps to work on first. Hype!

[PsychEyeball]

I was considering giving mapping a try, this sounds like a good excuse to do it. Let's go.
