people mentioned in above list haven't submitted yet, if you're quitting better tell me now, because the deadline is closing in. 

just a friendly reminder :)

 

also i need to make the credit map, so i need a finalised list of names.

Almost done with mine, just need a few more details and balancing then it's ready to ship.

I updated both of my maps:

Map07:

DMIUM2_E2_MAP07RC2.zip

Added multiplayer compatibility.

 

Map22:

DMIUM2_E5_MAP22RC2.zip

Its size has been reduced significantly, and battles don't drag as much as before.

90% done with E1 Secret Level!
Just need to choose a MIDI, balance some of the combat, and fix a couple of visual bugs.

Almost finished with Map 17 titled "Spectropolis" - just additional playtesting, some minor detailing, and clean up remains. On track to meet the deadline.

Here's the super colorful "cyberspace" fight arena:

Looks absolutely amazing! Would love to play through it once it's finished.
I have two suggestions for MIDIs, I guess..? All I could think of right now. :P

• "Envelope" by Tom Mustaine, from Hell To Pay
• "Green Orange" by Edwin van Veldhoven (modified to loop instead of fading out: grnornge.zip)

It cost me 23 min but that's just me being an idiot and can't find door and switch that's just being in front of me.

Overall I would say it's the best map I played so far, the best looking one at least, but I think it's a bit too overboard in difficulty for map04, and I played it on HMP, perhaps reduce or downgrade number of chaingunner and revenent, otherwise it's fine since it's kinda the finale before the finale for EP1

I'm really sorry, I think I'm gonna have to quit, I did think I could do it, but I tragically hit a bit of a burnout in the last few weeks, and I think it would be better to have my slot go to someone else rather than me just forcing out something I wouldn't be proud of, sorry, best of luck

[Hydrus]

You had me at OTEX.

 

I bet I can cook up something pretty cool for this project. Hopefully I can do it quick enough to not delay the project too much.

 

So one MAP12 slot, please.

welcome, keep in mind that you need a secret exit for your map, I'm sorry but you can't decline that now

Thanks!! I've finished the balancing and whatnow earlier. So go nuts, and let me know if you see anything borked, ofc!
BTW, I assume you modified the Green Orange MIDI?, I love it, but I think it might be too short, and the fade out leaves a couple of seconds of silence. But I'm using it to see if it grows on me during more playtesting for lower difficulties, atm.



With that said, here's the map:
 

Map Name: Orbital Spawning Platform Omega
MIDI: grnorange.mid by Edwin van Veldhoven (modified by Enzo Carozza?) (using as a placeholder MIDI because I'm not sure it's long enough for the map)

Map download: DMIUM2_E1_SECRET_RC1_-_KW.zip

Difficulty levels: Yes!
Coop and DM starts: Yes (not tested)
Ports tested: dsda-doom 0.27.5
Comments: Goddamn I fuckin' love orange circuits.

I didn't do the fadeout, that's there in Edwin's original file: here's a version with the fadeout removed by me.

To my knowledge, this MIDI hasn't been used in a PWAD ever. Consider it an obscure gem, I guess? :)

Nice! I'll try this one out. If I still think it's too short I'll have to find something else, though.


@fai1025 Btw, I haven't forgotten about finishing MAP14, I'm not abandoning it. However, it might be slightly delayed due to burnout and stress, sorry!

Yeah, that was just a quick thought without any reasoning, not actually focusing on the map length.
Though the map uses green and orange as its colour scheme it seems, so maybe the title could also reference the map in a way, heh.

@Enzo Carozza You're posting in this thread so much that I think we should make you do a map for this project. You're just asking for it!

Oh lord no, I haven't mapped before and I don't think I'd have the patience to.

Hehehe

Not having any patience is a virtue for a Doom mapper. Too many people get carried away with their maps. Doomium is about short & punchy maps, after all.

First version of my entry arrives!

Map name: Concrete Flow
Author: MFG38
Music: "Yaw" by Jimmy
Difficulty settings: Yes

Description: Gray and blue dominate in this semi-brutalistic quasi-industrial something. Grab the three keys
and then run to the exit. This map is kind of all over the place, I just wanted to get a draft of sorts
submitted by the deadline. I'll spruce up the visuals and gameplay in a later update.

My apologies for taking so long to say something. Lots of annoying IRL stuff has kept me away from the board . . . but not from my map! ;D That said, I won't have anything truly "finished" later today. Indeed, I'm grafting the end of another map onto what I already have just to have a big arena fight in time for the deadline.

 

I went heavily for the mountain theme, so almost the entire map takes place outside. Here's a couple shots;

 

 

 

In future updates, I hope to terrace the walls and add a lot more trees, but for today I need to re-texture the arena and try to balance the fights.

[Li'l devil]

This purple liquid looks almost like a missing texture from a Source engine game.

That took me way too long to realize, sometimes I question my brain.

I won’t be able to finish E2SECRET without 2 extra days.
