I guess he means Risen3D (a modified Doomsday engine with Boom support and stuff AFAIK).

Oh yeah, I thought I'd heard of it before. Thats fine.

I'll be submitting my Retro E2m1 soon.

O Btw, this level i'm submitting has use of the original sprites and stuff so you just gotta merge the textures and stuff and everything should be A Ok.

[geekmarine]

Oh, don't worry about that. The idea of Freedoom is that it replaces everything, so that you can use levels without modification. Your level should be fine, it'll just look a little different in Freedoom.

[ShadowRunner]

So will my e2m1 be accepted or is it allready in use?

[tony]

Chances are no.

[ShadowRunner]

I played the shareware and stuff, and quite frankly i dont think those levels really stick to the original.......

[DooMBoy]

Then why don't you do a map that capitalizes on that grand E1 atmosphere? I mean, we all know you're a mapping god, I'm sure you could it. We have faith in you!

[insertwackynamehere]

This is probably a dumb question, but I'm thinking of making a map for Freedoom (for Ultimate Doom). What is the port that Freedoom is being built to? is it vanilla, or Boom, or ZDoom? (I seem to remeber it being one of those). Thanks!

[tony]

Well, mostly it's Boom maps but it can use the default maps as well. You can find info on it here http://freedoom.sourceforge.net/

[insertwackynamehere]

Thanks!

[insertwackynamehere]

OK, I think I'll take a shot at E2M2. Is that ok? BTW, if I get too overwhelmed by schoolwork, I may have to back out, but I doubt I will.

[tony]

Great

Thats because they aren't supposed to. They just have to be levels that you can get to the exit in really, in order to have a complete IWAD that can be used to play DM levels.

I doubt that very many people will even play the SP levels at all.

However it is a bonus if the levels are nice, coherent, that the episodes have a good weapon/monster/difficulty flow, etc.

Can you reserve the archvile spot for me?

I'll get some concept sketches up soon and post them here on the forums.
I recently got some awesome drawing tools for christmas. :D

[tony]

Ok, I'm thinking of modifying the freedoom2 maps so they will work with the Doom2.exe, If I do this would it be possible if you could host the wad on the freedoom site ?

That's a waste of time.

Even if it is, he's free to waste his own time :) I have no problem hosting such a modification.

How extensively has the boom stuff been used anyway? We could go the 'graceful degredation' route. 'Does it work in jdoom' questions have been a (depressingly?) large proportion of *all* freedoom related discussion for a while.

[tony]

As far as I know, not that much, the only thing I see different is tags that are use for more then one type of function and extra monsters appearing and red, yellow and blue doors not being label red, yellow and blue. Yes, I'm determine to waste my own free time, so why should it matter to anyone else ? Unless this is a ego thing.

[Macro11_1]

Thought you might like to know, that I am starting tonight. Just been really buissy up till now. sorry.

[Edit]

Whops, wrong thread.

[Xanthier]

what does everyone think of the arachnotron sprite replacement?

also, it seems like the difficulty of these maps is higher than the original, has anyone else noticed this?

I want to confirm there is nobody working on the revenant because I'm thinking about doing it, also is someone assigned to the PE because I was worried about continuity between it and the caco, will the caco sprite's author be doing the PE soon?

If not would it be okay to base the PE on the caco sprite in order to maintain the same similarity between the originals?

Sorry for all the questions!

Quite similar to the original (I prefer novel things personally) but rather well made either way.

Xanthier said:

You're right. Do you think that's a good idea or a bad one?

See http://freedoom.sourceforge.net/status/sprites_list For assigns. In short,

• revenant free
  
• PE free
  

If you want to work on one, we'll reserve the slot for you.

That would be fine, in fact, if it helped you complete quicker, it's actively encouraged! :-)

No problem.

Hey, Uhh, I was just checking out the IWAD today, and I was wondering, why wasent my MAP04 not included?? If you didnt get it, i can upload it now... its been done for a while

[Xanthier]

thanks jon I checked the slots just wanted to double check!

[andrewj]

I think it's fair to say that the Cyberdemon, Archvile and HellKnight/Baron of Hell are also free, as nothing has eventuated from the people working on them (unfortunately).

It's still marked as assigned (not done) and isn't present in the deutex tree either - but it does appear to have been uploaded to the wiki. I'll make sure it gets in soon.

I've taken the liberty of adding it to the roadmap: http://freedoom.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main/Roadmap
