I might want to move my map to a later slot but I don't know yet. I'll keep you posted.

MIDI: Tool - Stinkfist (Instrumental)

DESCRIPTION: Wood and Iron map, possibly totally misplaced in-between all techbases that are populating the first slots so far.

Pretty cool map. It took me a lot of tries in order to finally beat the map. This map is pretty intense.

 

The wood and iron aesthetic really does remind me of those old Doom 2 maps from the 1990s, good job.

Another one I had to give up. This map was so difficult.

 

There were so many revenants, and just barely enough ammo.

 

I think the amount of revenants (and possibly pink demons) in the red key trap is a bit much for HNTR. I kept dying around this point so I cannot comment on the parts of the map past this.

Had some fun with the Waterfall textures.

Default map name in game because i'd imagine a DeHacked would be all put in when all maps are collected. 

Any Issues let me know so they can be patched up.

Sorry for the double post. I was going to try this map, but RUDE could not play it because it was in Hexen map format, and I'm pretty sure Crispy Doom doesn't support the Doom-in-Hexen map format either.

The overall layout is done, which means some areas might change.

Should I tone down the difficulty on this? What does @AtticTelephone think?

MAP16 for you.

Hey, sorry for the absence. Got a little caught up with other things and haven't had time to start mapping yet, but I'll get to it soon enough.

[NeedHealth]

@AtticTelephone My map is done, I am searching for a suitable midi track and a playtester. In that order.

I really appreciated the extra ammo, though I didn't really use the rocket launcher. I also appreciated the new location for the SSG a bit.

 

I was struggling with the high amounts of enemies in the cramped space where you get the blue key, but then I realised I didn't even need the blue key in order to finish the level as I could fit through the opened yellow column with the blue column still closed.

I suppose I'll leave that in as a quicker way of exiting if you're not going for 100% kills.

Started map 16 today. Didn't see what other mappers made yet, so the textures might change. For now, the idea is a primarily a  bricky kind of place. Here's a view of the starting room:

How much detail is too much?

I think you could definitely add more detail to that. Not to toot my own horn but I think the map I submitted to the project is likely on the cusp of "too detailed".

 

Granted, most of that is due to me being new to mapping. :P

Stuff like Support beams and alcoves with lights can go a long way in adding that little bit of detail, not too much detail, but still a good amount.
hell even like corpses, small amounts of nature stuff can also fall into that category.

More screenies. Anyone got tips for outdoors areas, specifically ones with lots of rocks?

add trees that's a given. also see a brown area on the other side of the river, could put some brown stalagmite objects there.
Oh and if you're working with lots of rocks that can give you opportunities to weave it into gameplay however you'd go about doing that is up to you tho.

Have a look at this video by Dragonfly which is a great tutorial for designing outdoor areas. I use this technique every time I want to do cliffs and such, this is more for scenery than gameplay I guess, but the principle applies - don't worry about making the shapes look perfect, you can smooth them out later with extra vertices once your geometry is settled.

 

Screenshots looking killer BTW!

Thanks to both of you! I managed to work on map 16 a little more and I'm happier with the overall feel of the main outdoors area now. Gameplay wise, it's definitely proving to be a bit on the tough and compact side - my idea is for it to be something of a break map, I guess? Something short that doesn't waste your time and gives plenty of thrills for its short runtime.

I don't really do doomcute that often, but I think a single couch is fine, right? :P

@AtticTelephone If you remember, could you @ me when this megawad is compiled? there is a part in my map that might fail if nodes are rebuild or the map is saved one more time.
