Doomworld Mega Project 2017 (Final)

[everennui]

I would like to make a map for this.

[Nine Inch Heels]

You know what? I'll try and make a map for this. I have been doodling with doombuilder for some time now, so I think I can cook up something that is somewhat "edible".

[SFoZ911]

I might make something toward the end of the year. I think I'll use some of the textures Memfis used.

[LordShadowZ]

I'm in.

I'm sure at least one of the maps I'm planning to make during the year will be good for this

[Dragonfly]

I've made a start on my map for DWMP2017!

[riderr3]

Cool, I will participate.

[Misty]

I want try my skills here too. Sign me in,please.

[joe-ilya]

Me too, I'll be doing a Zdoom map.

[Dragonfly]

Mapping on stream right now - tune in here!

I made progress:

[StormCatcher.77]

Cool stuff. A very good combination of colors.
I can not wait to run through this tehno-base!

[Nate River]

I've been playing Doom for almost a decade but just starting out making maps. I'm interested to contribute a map though since I already have some ideas and there should be enough time until the end of the year to learn and refine my mapping skills.

By the way, Suitepee, you've apparently been added you to the mapper list in the OP. I recommend you to respond to this (I presume) accident by actually making a map for this year's project. :)

Well I was considering keeping this a secret for a while and actually making something on the sly, but I've decided to just announce that I will keep my name on the interested mappers list and actually try to make something this time around. (previously tried for NOVA 3, but stopped trying to make a map)
After all, this project allows anything playable in so there's a lot less pressure to make something super-awesome. Can't guarantee that I'll make something in time, but I will try.

That sounds like a good attitude. I'll also try my best though and have already started working on it. ;D

My progression. First,I`ll draw main lines and after that,I`ll add more details and expand sectors,so it won`t look like one large corridor. Large parts are going to be main rooms with stuff. This map was supposed to be vanilla,but I`m afraid to reach vanilla limits,so I changed it in boom format.

[Walter confetti]

I hope this could be ok, if you found any problems while playing this please tell me!

Author: Walter Confalonieri
Map name: Valhalla awaits you!

Compatibility: limit-removing port
Playtesting: chocorenderlimits, prboom 2.5.0.3, skulltag 3.0 alpha
Allow jumping and\or crouching: no
Skill settings: yes

Build time: 2 weeks, more than less
Tools used: doom builder 2, slade3 3.1.1.3, zdbsp

Resources: Modified stock textures (but added in the wad as new textures!), Plutonia Experiment, TNT: Evilution, Zoon Textures, Dusk Textures, 32in24-12 texture pack, MS Paint stuff made by me, pictures from internet
Music track: 6.mid from H.U.R.L.

Bugs: a massive HOM at the starting building at the outdoor and a little HOM in the second half of the map in vanilla doom 2
Comments: A colorful city map, the level starts where my map in DMP 2016 ends and it uses these two limitations: 50 monsters and using only the "new" doom 2 monsters (expect for lost soul, that is the PE shot).

Yeah, I suggesting to add more windows which connected to other places. Sometimes I forgot this but later will add.


I'm using limit-removing format this time. Still don't touching BOOM format, but may be I will start someday.

A simple and colorful work. I wanted to record FDA, but it was in this trap:



If you step over the crates, no longer get out of there without IDCLIP. Maybe there was to be a border, or I missing something ...

[Spocks_Beard]

I'm game.

Here's my map so far.

Oh well... Is just me that I missed to put a impassable line there... i'll fix that later!

[Memfis]

FDA for Walter's map. It was weird and interesting to explore thanks to the new graphics.

Some notes:
- http://i.imgur.com/dAhETNB.png - texture is displayed incorrectly in prboom-plus because it's 96 units wide (should be 128).
- For better or worse, the meme hall is rather dark so it's difficult to actually see the pictures, at least in software mode.
- The spider in sector 193 is too low so most of the time he can't shoot at the player. You can raise the floor to 104, noone will notice anyway.
- Here is another way to get stuck. Maybe you could put a super secret in there?

[Walter confetti]

Thanks for the feedback!

Added some routes to the backyard section (the one where you get stuck), adding a teleport that leads you to the super secret section and in the other tricky route i just put a teleport that bring you to the green tower, crafted from a unused spot at the starting build, plus fixed the bugs that memfis pointed out in his playing, link is the same!

[Dragonfly]

About to start my final DWMP2017 stream. Tune in for final monster placement and testing! :D

Max for Walter's map (probably won't record these for so many maps this time). Really cool map, I wish I could make maps like these.

Glad you like it so much!

[Dragonfly]

My map is finished! It's a small-medium sized map for GZDoom.

The map is called Integrity. [DOWNLOAD]

FDA-Max of Walter's map at a blazing 14-something minutes. Interesting 'happy-themed' map with good ammo balance. Memes were too dank for me though and I didn't get most of them. :(

Also cool pics Dragonfly. Coloured lighting is looking thick, solid, tight etc.

[StormCatcher.77]

Gorgeous job! Create work of such high quality for 7-10 days - this is a sign of an experienced master. To come up only concept of similar map, I would have to spend a couple of months... Gameplay is challenging, it's very cool experience! I give it high score in my personal collection. I think that more than once run through this base!

mediafire.com/file/18xs5sdw7p6hn6d/Integrity_SC77_FDA.lmp]First Demo Attempt GZDoom 2.2.0, 14 min

At first try I play with a hidden HUD. When I played the demo, I was horrified by how many times could die ...

For my personal collection:

- Visuals (4 / 5)
- Detailing (4 / 5)
- Atmosphere (4 / 5)
- Gameplay (5 / 5)
- Difficulty (4 / 5)

- Overall Rating (4 / 5)

If map was bigger, it would be 5 / 5.

[Dragonfly]

Thank you for the review and compliments. I've yet to look at the demo as I'm currently at work, but thanks for it nonetheless!

StormCatcher.77 said:

I agree a bigger map might be more fun, but I decided that for now I wanted the map to be 'bitesize' to make it a manageable map to make and not eat up too much of my time. If I find I have an abundance of time on my hands in the coming weeks I may revisit the map and add a bit more to the map. :)

[Marlamir]

Sign me up too, i´m interested and I'll make a map for it for sure!

Not for a reason that place is called "Hall of unknown memes" XD

Anyway funny demo, finally someone get that berserk! Also, you play as the same way I playing my map...
