[SyntherAugustus]

here are some screens from map08 of freedoom.

lookin good, but only wierd people have their HUD so part is at the top of the screen

[Rellik]

Nice!

[fraggle]

Looking good. Its better to upload versions as they develop though, this way people can see for themselves how the levels are developing. I covered this in the FAQ.

Also, why do the armor helmets in this picture seem to have weird squares around them?

[SyntherAugustus]

that's freedoom's fault!

[SyntherAugustus]

damn wintex.
i fixed it

[SyntherAugustus]

there we go.
i'll upload when i get the blue key door made.

[boris]

Weird, they don't have that square for me.

Yeah, pictures don't hurt as well though, some of us are too busy to test in development maps all the time :( looking good!

(I added some carriage returns to your post there to stop horizontal scrolling)

Turn your gamma down a bit! :)

[Jon]

Is that keen room a secret?

[SyntherAugustus]

nope. you that's the first room in the blue key door. :)

[Jon]

Are you sure that keen's would look in place in a non-secret area, or secret map?

[SyntherAugustus]

my version consists of having a water area, lava area, and a military area. the fish fit with the water part.

The fish (commander keen) are supposed to be an easter egg and not used in the main game. They really dont belong there.

[esayeek]

if you really need fish, put them in a hard to find secret or something

[SyntherAugustus]

BUT THERE FUN TO SHOOT!!!!
oh well, i'll make a trap then.

[SyntherAugustus]

hey, in downtown or industrial zone, let's say you have a fish shop. wouldnt it make sense to use the hangin fish?

[fraggle]

Not really. They're cartoons so they dont fit in. Its ok to use them in the secret levels as an easter egg but I dont think they should be in the main game. Sorry :(
