Map06 has me confused AF!

Map05 was gorgeous.

Same. Have you figured how to "complete" it?

 

Thanks for giving the wad a try! Map 05 is the last playable map of "Head Trauma"

Map 06 is just a "thanks for playing/progression stopper", and can't be complete :D

I was still an inexperienced mapper when I made this wad, so I didn't know about UMAPINFO, sorry about that ^^'

Just bumping this because this really is a super cool wad, with a great sense of humor and even greater sense for detailing with vanilla textures!

 

And also, because I wanted to ask,

Spoiler

what is the connection of MAP02 to sound? I "get" all the other maps, but not this one.

Hey, Thanks for playing! Glad you had fun :D

I brainstormed some ideas around the theme of sound, but the majority weren't doable (at least not without going into stuff I wasn't too familiar with at the time).

Decided to settle for a simple weapons factory, where the sound comes from all the pistons and mechanisms.

In the exit you initiate the self destruction of the facility, "killing the noise".

@AshtralFiend Ohh, I see!

 

Spoiler

It hadn't occurred to me in the least, but now that you mention it a factory like that has got to make a lot of noise!

 

Anyway, while I'm here I might also mention that my favorite map was MAP01, but overall the thing that really sold the wad to me was the "alternate dimension" sequences, they were really superbly done, especially the one in MAP02 where I stopped for minutes just to admire all the "alternate" detailing :) And the funniest part of the wad was definitely the chain of increasingly shabbier and shabbier restrooms in MAP03, I was actually disappointed to get through that area because I wanted them to go even shabbier XDD
