Heh, thanks for playing my map! Yeah, it's too short, but considering that there will be no less than 40 other maps by the end, it'll serve as a good change of pace from the longer maps. It was also made as a map for me to train against cyberdemons, cause I tend to panic a lot around them.

AND it's great to practice for learning how BFG scanners work, as well as two-shotting Cybers.

got back to working on my map, a mix of just lost motivation and laptop charging issues caused me to stop working on it for a bit. this is an update of v4 with 1 new area and some actual doorframes for the outside area (so they don't just disappear into the sky, and maybe some other things i forgot i did, idk. the new area was from a couple months ago.)

This map was originally created for another project of mine, but it sat on my hard drive for a couple of months, because this project has been going on for so long and I really don`t have much time to mapping, and because of that I am 100% sure that it will not be finished this year. So I think I'll drop it here so that at least someone can play it.

Edit: Fixed some texturing errors.

Based on @Biodegradable feedback - updated my map by adding volume to the road section to make it less flat. Also fixed minor texture and items alignment.

Yes! DW Max is a year-long project, so you have until January 2025 to submit a map.

I could feel the frustration in this (and I laughed, I'm sorry)

This is your wonderland. AVJ and RJ to your hearts content. There is nothing else to do or see. Keep smiling!

Play time: 3+ hours, please use save states for your own sanity. (sorry Bio)

This map is barely functional, I'm submitting a rough draft so that everyone can bring awareness of any bugs/exploits. I will make a few other modifications before the deadline. This map is essentially at the same scale of Mechadon's Vela Pax, so it's highly probably something is wrong.

This is a speedmap where I wanted to try something more vertical. It has inspirations in The Chasm and other similar maps, though this one has some devilish tricks up its sleeve. It is difficult, and may take some time to get your footing against the monsters, but is also fairly short. Hope it's fun!

 

Also, I did not disable jumping and crouching. I don't think those break the map, but I tested without them.

Welp, there was a major oversight in my level that disabled all AVJs. We do not speak of this.

Not sure the best way to submit - this is my first attempt of participating to a community project. UDMF format, DOOM2 IWAD, tested in GZDoom 4.10. Link to the topic where I posted the submission: Foxhole: Foxhole: Just another outpost

 

Hope you like!

@Berubaretto I'm inclined to inform you that I got 47/48 kills on your level pacifist, with 100% on everything else. Makes for a real good challenge. Liked your level a lot!

[JaySmithen]

@Obsidian Hi :) Are we allowed to use models at all? Models can't added to a WAD file AFAIK. I think they can only be read from a folder. It would mean that when submitting a map we would have to supply our Models folder as a separate download.

I assume that would necessitate the finished product being in .pk3 format, which I did address in the rules. Apologies!

[JaySmithen]

That's cool 😎👍 I had a brain fart there. For some reason I thought the finished product would be in pk3 format lol. 😊
Edit: Who needs models anyway, I replaced it with some midtex shenanigans 😁

I'm not avoiding your map, I just don't have the time to wrestle with a 1400+ demon-infested slaughtermap at this time. I'll try and tackle it over the weekend for ya.

@Biodegradable 

 

Thanks for playing Another, Bartender. I'm glad it works well enough as a speedmap, and agree that the progression is wonky. I'm also glad the new Barons are still fun!

[CrazedCleric]

I'm interested.

[Mapping noob]

If people are still allowed to join, i'd like to submit something.

Here's my simple submission.

Additional Textures: OTEX, not included because it's such a pain to read and remove unused textures, I recommend playtesters boot OTEX with the map.
