Welcome to DOOMIUM II, a Community Project where we seek the purest element of DOOM! A sequel to DOOMIUM I, This project aim to create a megawad worth of maps that are Short, Straight Forward, and with Frantic Action, from industrial compounds, concrete cities, mountain ranges, fragments of realities, and many more! The project contain 6 episode of 5 map each with the addion of a secret for each episode, each episode have it's unique theme, including industry, brutalism, and natures, and the classic void levels for the finale episode. This project was originally intended to release in early March and as a late birthday gift to Doom's 30 years of glory! but well it's a extremely late gift now, but better late then never I suppose.

Congrats on the release! Glad to see @knifeworld stuck with Edwin van Veldhoven's "Green Orange" for MAP31/E1's secret map's music, although the one packaged with the WAD isn't the looping modified version I provided. :P

Excellent! I enjoyed working on both my maps for this!
Although I think you forgot to mention me, and also @DankMetal who worked on MAP08, in the made possible by list.
As far as I know, the finished Map08 was still built on top of his work.

I was so busy with Doom projects and IRL stuff at the time, I think I gave both versions a listen briefly but forgot, sorry!
Just listened to both by slading it in.
I'm honestly happy with the other version at this point, even though I prefer the looping one.
There's less silence in your fixed version but there's a noticable click when it loops about 50% of the time.

forgot to snip the OP i quoted, auuugh

Congrats on the release, it looks gorgeous

[DankMetal]

Cool to see this project finally being released! It's sad that i couldn't finish my map in time, maybe next time i will not suffer of a severe case of burnout (if there's ever a next time)

Also, i played map 8, which was started by me and later finished by @JackDBS, and i think it's a good level. However, it doesn't follow what i was going for, which is good! But now that i have motivation to mapping, can i make my own version of it?

If you can do it in three days, sure. Because I want to upload it on Idgame three days after launch

Sorry about that. It was a bit of a quick fix because I had no idea what to do with it. I’d love to see how you were gonna do it.

Should mention that on MAP36, one linedef (4301) is W1 teleport. Theoretically it can be possible for a monster (or even their corpse) to teleport using this line instead of the player, but this softlocks since you need to enter the inner sector in that area to proceed. Normally it's not really practical for it to happen though.

EDIT: There's also a TON of monsters telefragging each other on MAP30. Intentional?

oof oh no, so erm the telefragging is NOT intentional, I thought fixed it, maybe I have to move the map

Hello,

 

we're going to play part 1 (about one third to one half of the maps) for Thursday Night Survival today.
The session starts 9 hours from the time of this post and you can expect it to be fairly active for 4+ hours.

I had been putting off playing through the first installment for a while and this was a great excuse to finally dust it off. It had a handful of great maps but also a fair share of duds.

 

I then started the sequel. Beat the first episode, and this is definitely a notable improvement. Visuals are better, combat is better, everything is better. The secret map of e1 was cool too. The closer imo could use some work because atm it's just square rooms with enemies stuffed inside them, my least favourite map of the set so far.

 

Also, there's a funny imp in this closet that never teleports in https://prnt.sc/mfkOGSSptt_X

All the other scrolling floor closets work as intended. I will edit this post should I find any more bugs during my playthrough.

I recognize the monster closet from my map. 

 

I never had this problem during playtest. 

 

Did this happen multiple time ?

Happens inconsistently, in both DSDA and GZDoom.

[Insaneprophet]

Im playing through this and enjoying it. I kind of have one gripe though. Between both threads and both text files I can not find any place where it lists all maps, names, numbers and authors all in one place. This thread only lists the mappers and its up to us to try to figure out who exactly did what. Kind of frustrating when I would like to perhaps comment about certian levels.

[Li'l devil]

There is a credits map where all mappers are listed. But yeah, would've been nice.

 

Edit: for now, I think you can look up the names in the project's development thread.

Edited June 16 by Li'l devil

[Insaneprophet]

Yes I can look in that thread to connect map # with author but when I remember the name of the map that list is usless for figuring out the author. Similar situation with the text files. Just seems like a lot of un-needed leg work to figure things out when there IS a list for map #, midi name and midi creator. Why that wasnt combined for actual mapper and map name...? Like I said, just a little gripe.
