DynamiteKaitorn Posted November 20, 2023 Behold: Quite possibly the LARGEST BIGDOOR texture DooM can handle (or at least Slade let me convert before it has a massive brain aneurysm). Oh and proof it DOES work: Spoiler 21 Quote Share this post Link to post

That is ludicrous. Now, if it were two times taller... Edit: Now I'm curious about maximum texture size in Doom and in SLADE.

DooMAD Posted November 21, 2023 There does, though, come a point where extreme proportions begin to detract from the cosmetic appeal. There are more aesthetically-pleasing ways of making a big door. The larger you make a repeating horizontal texture, the uglier it starts to look. Maybe find a way to break it up a bit. Add some variety. I'd even suggest, once it reaches that kind of scale, finding ways of building the door using multiple linedefs and sectors to add some actual shape to it. It doesn't have to be one big, flat surface. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post

It doesn't have to be one big, flat surface. Sure, there are other ways to do big doors. My Intention is to give more sizes and possibilities for people like me that like and love the original DOOM BIGDOOR Texture. It was never meant to make 1280 pixel wide BIGDOORs as new standard. But whoever wants it can do it. And yes, a 1280 Pixel wide BIGDOOR looks very repetitive, because the middle part is repeated three times. For me personally the widths 512 and 768 look OK. I think about to add some damage here and there without modifying the original BIGDOOR look to much and give some variety. But for now i want first to complete all possible sizes and make the doors higher. Edited November 21, 2023 by Meerschweinmann 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
Meerschweinmann Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) Here is a first attempt of a 384 wide and 160 pixel high BIGDOOR. In my opinion the yellow/black stripes at the lower part could be higher/larger and i am not 100% fine with the door. Edit: Deleted texture, because i have uploaded later newer Versions.

Meerschweinmann Posted November 23, 2023 (edited) And here is the 192 and 224 pixel high and 768 pixel wide BIGDOOR. 192 and 224 height seems to be the optical sweetspot for those high doors.
