SLOTTER VULT [Final] - Large Vanilla Slaughter Map (Complevel 2)

SLOTTER VULT is a large (30-45 minute) single Vanilla Doom map (complevel 2) created with the resource of the upcoming Hell Revealations megawad. Since the map doesn’t really fall within the Hell Revealed style in gameplay or aesthetics, I figured I’d release it standalone.

 

This map is heavily inspired by Huy Pham’s Deus Vult. Sort of think of it as a Vanilla compat tribute.

 

While this map targets Vanilla Doom (no VPOs, etc), I highly suggest playing in a port that increases the sprite limit, as this map was designed ignoring the limit. Technically this map can run and play demos in Vanilla Doom, but I wouldn't say it’s exactly playable in Vanilla (due to the aforementioned sprite limit).

 

This map is supposed to be difficult. If it’s too hard on Ultra-Violence, don’t feel bad dropping down a difficulty or two.

A very special thanks to my testers:

• @tonytheparrot (UV)
• @Cacodemon187 (HMP)

 

 

This map will work on most any port (-complevel 2) that supports Vanilla (+DEHACKED) Compatibility.

It is highly advised to use a port that supports a raised sprite limit.

 

Compatible Ports:

• MS-DOS (Doomhack.exe)
• Chocolate / Crispy Doom
• DSDA Doom / PrBoom Plus
• ZDoom-based ports
• Woof-based ports
• Eternity Engine Dev Build ONLY
• Doom Retro
• ...and more

This was so, so much fun!

I absolutely loathe Hell Revealed and the like but you're the one mapper that is always able to make this style entertaining, for me. I had a great time with the WAD on ITYTD, I'll probably enjoy Hell Revelations too when it's done.

 

Question: 

 

 

I played in latest Crispy and this wall in the credit map doesn't seem to lower. Is this a bug or I'm supposed to activate it somehow? Can't figure.

Glad you enjoyed it :)

There's a hidden switch on the opposite side that lowers the wall. Look for a strange texture on the outer side where the health bonuses are.

I didn't really think the screenshots did the map justice, so I whipped up a quick little trailer here:

Quite difficult!

The first checkpoint has not yet passed.

Thanks!

Here's a a bit of a minor hotfix for the map!

 

Basically while getting to watch @TheShep play through the map (thanks so much :D), I noticed some minor bugs that I've fixed up.

 

These include:

- A certain secret near the start of the map can no longer be item bumped.

- An action line near the chapel was in the wrong place, so it's been fixed.
- Other minor texture alignment fixes
