This is a pretty cool techbase with vents that allow you to quickly reach any part of the map. It's also teeming with explosives. You don't have much firepower at the start to deal with the cybie so try to make him useful.

I think it doesn't make sense for the character to run as fast as doom guy. Makes the bike feel a lot less useful. The bike should be doomguy fast, and you should sprint as fast as doomguy walks.

Nightmare in Quake changes monster behavior to make ranged monsters effectively act like turrets on sight, as soon as they see you, they immediately lay down fire and keep doing so until you die or hide.
That can make some encounters meaner, but also add an exploitable element of predictability which did not exist before.

IDEALLY; somebody will provide Vry Spooky v3 or v4 as that has a bunch of the maps in it that are, logically, not in the earlier releases.
This way we will not be forced to start from scratch and can modify the guidelines from there.

It's funny - I first heard a bunch of Duke tracks in this Zelda Classic game Lost Isle.When I played Duke Nukem finally a few years later I realized a large number of the tracks in Lost Isle were lifted straight from Duke. Good picks too cause I never would have guessed they were from Duke since I had heard the main theme and didn't realize there was that many dark atmospheric pieces in Duke. Really helped set the tone for most of the game.

Heretic has way too many enemies but I think I hate Heretic/Hexen's inventory system or mods that try to use something like it. Best I like with it is stuff like Ashes where it's barely in the game at best and mostly just there for medkits or ways to explore poisonous areas. The more items I'm forced to swap between and the more I'm expected to actually use the items in battles the more I dislike the inventory system.

With strong enough determination, I probably could. But it may take months by gracious estimation before I'd even begin to form the idea on how to proceed. It's a video game from 1993, yet these 200+ files with thousands lines of code feel like black magic to me. I'm blind here.

Holding some arbitrary button then pressing numbers could also be cool. Personally, I think it's about time when woof/nugget devs brought the level table from dsda doom.
What's the practical use case for numpads anyway? I bound automap controls to it and even then I think it's a waste. With Heretic and Hexen I prefer using letters for inventory items.
Can anyone remember? I'm playing (or testing I guess) Quake on Dosbox and while it's generally fine collisions and physics seem to be somewhat strange. Orger's grenades can get stuck between floors (and the clunk -sound it emits begins to repeat x100 until the grenade explodes). There's also places even on the first map of Episode 1 in which I'm getting stuck. One is the final ramp before the map exit.
I played this game so much when I was a teenager and I really don't ever remember seeing anything like this. Not with the original dos version or not the winquake.
Obviously Quakespasm etc don't exhibit this behavior either.
Any ideas? Dosbox (-staging v0.81.1) accuracy comes to my mind.

If you're gonna map for build, might as well do it for the best of the bunch. Duke isn't all that interesting and unique. Ideas that would fit Duke can just as easily fit Doom and his monster rooster aren't as interesting as Blood's so there's little reason to map for it.

i like dukes gameplay alot and his monster roster. its just there should be AT LEAST ONE. i know theres that duke armegeddon mod but that changes the gameplay and theres that one that was "based" on the 2001 duke forever trailer but other than that no expansive map pack or anything. i like all five episodes of duke 3d, duke it out in dc is really good.
i didnt like duke , shit even some of the duke zone maps are good as fuck. i just wish there was more

It's at least got more of an active modding scene than Shadow Warrior or Redneck Rampage, and one of those mods includes the AMC Squad. Still agree completely about Blood getting the most attention over the years.

Yeah well, the pixels are all fucked up when compared to native CRT resolutions - most common resolution with Q1 was 640x480 and then 1024x768. Chocolate quake is all blocky and shit, plus the gamma is weird too. CRT plus 1024x768 resolution and there were no jagged lines anywhere.
I had Pentium 166hz and if I remember correctly 1024x768 was still around 20+ or around 25 frames. 640x480 was easily 30 at least. Some guy who had 486 needed to play Quake in 320x200 resolution.
However when it comes down to getting stuck like in Dosbox version, I didn't see anything. It happens around in this place here.
Oh boy I sound like an elitist but I'll take Quakespasm every day over this one.

Sure, dev doesn't implement integer scaling for uneven fullscreen resolution, maybe the pixels would be perfect if I had an exact resolution of 1024x768 but I don't think I want to do that on my screen at least. Closest 4:3 for me is 1440x1080.

Quake is abstract and surreal while Half-Life was pushing for more realism with its environments. Many such cases with older games. It's why World of Warcraft's visuals have aged better than other MMOs that were technically superior at the time.

Joe, I urge you to listen to what I'm saying and to read this post in full.
That's not a fucking good reaction from people and you adopting an attitude of spite isn't going to help neither them or yourself.
A better approach is to instead make fewer contributed levels, BUT, then put a lot more time and effort into the ones you do, try to hone the gameplay and looks as much as you can.
Not to say to make them big and long either, it can still be something 2048 sized or something, but try putting as much thought into the fights, exploration, and aesthetics as you can.
You can never please everyone, but if people regularly react with exhausted sighs at you having submitted five levels to a project, maybe there's something you can learn from those reactions.
Sometimes criticism can sting, and sometimes people don't bother with critique and just call work shit in some unspecified manner, but if someone actually specifically articulates why they think something doesn't work, even if it comes with some verbal abuse, consider if their analysis is worth listening to and if their advice is good or if you need to change something.

I've got positive feedback in the DBP's development thread, by people who played each of my maps.
I've got positive feedback on screenshots I posted anonymously here.
Once my name is attached, it's suddenly considered bad by /vr/.
I think there's simply a bitterness going on around here about me, because of the map I tried to replace in /vertex relocation/, which is fair, I was being an asshole, and nobody wants to play maps by an asshole.

:I was surprisingly frustrated with map 31 to the point I quit with the intention of restarting it later
: honestly after rocket zone 2 it lost just a little steam to me(light bridge too far was a cool set piece and red shift was meh) and the final boss executed well was just a little underwhelming(just bfg spammed it)

I immensely dislike the disorganized mess that is the tiles list. It's the greatest obstacle for me. I can learn how to make breakable glass or doors, but having to sift through thousands of tiles looking for carpet saps the joy out of creating. If I could manually organize them into textures/flats/decorative sprites/etc then life would be a lot easier. I'm starting to understand why Carmack said Doom has proven to be the best modding platform

There IS no 2048 project. It hasn't been in the news for weeks. The "lead" stopped communicating several hours after being regretfully informed that managing a project takes more effort than vaguely directing people towards existing textures and telling them to do the rest of the work. No one else accepted the burden, presumably because no one wants to pick up the slack for something so poorly conceived to begin with.
I seriously think anyone who has interest in /vr/ projects for the time being is best just learning mapster32 and making something for the Duke3D project. We're plauged by "ideas guys" who start projects without any realistic ability to finish them, but Duke It Out In /vr/ anon seems relatively mature/commited/sane.

The interest was there, but as said, the guy who stepped up to lead quickly vanished without a word.
I really think that interest is still here, a lot of people spoke up and it was an active discussion, but obviously there needs to be someone to take the reigns, and people were just left to hold their blueballs.
I'll be back home in a couple days, maybe I could look at trying to resolve the whole part about combining the texture sets properly so that animated textures and switches don't conflict.
That may take a few days for me to work out, and I'm not promising anything, especially NOT to lead the project as a whole, I don't have that kind of time and energy, but maybe I can help things along the way a bit, at least.

Therein lies the problem. Pic related took me a little over an hour, but I'm not gonna bother releasing them because there's no purpose without a lead. And after looking at these texture packs for a while, I don't think NMNTex or DBP44Tex even look good.

It's gotta be texture pegging then, hit "o" to toggle that. Yeah, the tiles are a bit of a mess. There's an option in mapster to sort tiles with "t" in the selection menu, tiles.cfg can be edited as well to add more categories and textures.

I liked a lot of what people did with NMN in HFFM. There's maybe some roughness to a bit of it, but it overall has a pretty solid aesthetic.
I was however unconvinced of the DBP texture pack.

Do we even need a lead in the first place? We can just settle for a vanilla limit-removing gameplay and just do some maps around it. Maybe boom-compatable even, if we are feeling brave enough. Then simply pack all the maps we've done in one wad and call it a day.

A successful implementation of what you're suggesting isn't "no lead", it's multiple leads, but as long as those remain vague "we"-s instead of concrete "I"-s nothing will get done. Who exactly is going to compile the maps and other resources? Who is going to post it to Doomworld, idgames etc? Who will playtest the maps no one else wants to and ensure cross-port compatibility?
>vanilla limit-removing gameplay
This is a completely meaningless term, which also demonstrates a critical misunderstanding of how the engine works. For most purposes, Boom/cl9 mapping is easier than limit-removing/cl2 mapping, and neither say much about gameplay.

A volunteer community project doesn't have that, and an anonymous one doesn't even have reputational damage to consider.

I'm still not 100% certain what to do for the Bees here, I can't think any Genesis games with Bee sounds, so I may need to get clever and grab like, chainsaw/motor/airplane sounds.
Also the big Bee here teleports to you after a bit if it's not in combat in the hopes of finding more shit to sting.

Yes. Also canonically all of the schematics for these things are stored in Sega Genesis-shaped cartridges. I wanted to make the subweapon pickups cartridges but I realized that would suck a little as all of the silhouettes would be the same.

Texture is not aligned because build engine is pure numbers game bullshit, making more wall splits or drawing on bigger grid helps fix it, usually always draw by power of 2, this is also will help with aligning floor tiles since those can't be stretched. 128, 256, 512, 1024 etc.
Tile group is just as devs were adding them back then, you can't change it to your needs, you can however make your own tile group sort tables. For floor tiles, walls, doors, decorations etc. If you were to remake that art file to your needs you would have to ship your map with your own artfile, because textures in map format are assigned not by texture itself, but by it's tilenumber. Then there are some hardcoded tilenums that have code to them, that's why when opening Ion Fury in editor and picking textures first few pages of tileset are just empty, because there's still some Duke code in them

Pretty much everything numbers should be power of 2 or close to it. That be map units, gpspeed values, other numbers for scripts (how much does a sector rotate for example) because the engine shits itself when numbers are wrong, that be unalignable texture like you have, broken up/down sector that stops halfway through etc. Funny shit, but hey, still much more options than in doom.

Depends on wich sounds. If it's a door sector it will be loud as fuck and I hate it too. Some sprites, like steam also can't be changed. If it's ambient sound you placed using msfx sprite you can change a radius of it with a hitag, note that it's spherical so goes away if you go too deep/high away from it too. So to summarize, only ambient sound you place yourself can be changed

You live under a rock. There is a huge number of Duke mods around, more than Blood, and at least as many as Quake. It has less than Doom, but then again, only Super Mario World can compare.
In addition, there are three Duke mods that blow out of the water anything from Doom wads, Alien Armageddon, AMC Squad and Demon Throne. The amount of detail and the sheer size of those are mind blowing, more massive than most modern games, let alone those from the 90s.

On ModDb alone (which isn't the only source I know) there are more than three times the amount of Duke mods to Blood mods. I will take Anon's point it's not as plentiful as the Doom scene, but no game is quite frankly.
Anyone here play this? I'm enjoying the levels so far and the aesthetic is cool but I can see it getting tiring after 30 maps.

I don't usually play multiplayer but if there's a playerbase on the kex port or zandronum or something I'd like to know.
Preferably no gameplay mods unless it's just a vanilla enhancement like smooth doom, although that isn't a dealbreaker for me.

Not gonna be around for the rest of the week, if someone else wants to make the clouds in the meantime then go for it:

Pic related are my settings, everything else is set to default (feel free to experiment though). Not gonna bother giving a heads up for this sort of thing anymore, I know for a fact that at least one other person has been making the clouds from time to time and I think we can all agree that it's not too important who makes them as long as they know what they're doing. So from now on, just assume that I couldn't make it if the thread makes it to around 100 posts and it still hasn't been posted.

On the topic of long levels eviternity 1's levels are actually a lot briefer than I remember, map 15 might as well be an Erik Alm speedmap in comparison to the average level in EV2
I hated the episode 2 secret map the first time around playing unmodded, only partly because I didn't know the archviles in the final room are supposed to be killed by the gimmick and I peekabooed them with 50 rockets, and partly because a turret cyberdemon threatening instakills over the course of a 3 hour map is not my cup of tea.
I also forgot how high Solomon's stats are, jumping and running around at doomguy speeds with 400 7.62 in stock, but it's all needed here

I haven't played much Duke custom maps so disregard my opinion all you want.
I believe that's because Duke maps are not utilizing the abstractness enough. For some reason everyone decided that just because Build is more advanced than Doom engine and can pull out whatever crazy ""realistic"" landscapes, they don't need to rely on abstract kind of Doom mapping that much anymore.
When in reality this abstract design is what helps to make interesting "flow" of the map, because when you're not concerned with making your map to look more realistic, all you're left to be concerned with is to make it more fun gameplay-wise, whether it's combat or puzzles/exploration. Sure you still need it to look good, but the priorities are kinda different imo. of course as we can see with modern gigantism purple-orange-acidgreen maps that are just one huge slaughter that's not always the case
I'm not saying they're mutually exclusive, just that in chase for the realism and persuasiveness people might forget about the arcade gameplay.

Standard practice is to grey box (make a map with no details or textures) and focus on gameplay elements. Then detail that map with a visual theme in mind.
Going from doom mapping where you can probably get away with abstract maps and then name them "bloodcore processing" or something, to something like Duke where you shoot for a realistic location, is probably a big leap for most mappers.
I wonder what the level design process was for Duke 3d. I'd look it up, but I'm phone posting.

Duke and SW are built around autoaim, there are even some exploits you can do in Duke 3d if you turn it off in a more modern port (shrinking battlelord sentries)
I would recommend either novert and keyboard look, or BMOUSE, the mouselook in the original build engine on DOS is atrocious because it doesn't properly poll both axes at the same time.

The original game comes with vertical aiming off, so no. I used to use the PgUp/PgDn keys when I first played. And Blood also does not require vertical aim, I dunno where you got this idea from.

the 5th episode? Mirage Barrage and Golden Carnage are in the top of Duke maps of all time. For me though its the new music, Lee Jackson doesn't miss, its all great. Flamethrower gun is op as fuck and firefly troopers are terrible addition, underbaked enemy. Either it kills you instantly or dies from a pipebomb like its nothing. The worst part is baby fart of a final boss, so bad it retroactively stains the episode, making you know that it will always end with a whimper

Enjoying it so far. Shrinking plasma thingy is cool gimmick, although it took me time to figure out that it doesn't kill me first time I encountered it.

Kill counts in the original were unreliable because enemies won't show up in the total before they spawn. Bugs and mapping errors will mess up the numbers more. Depending on how eduke keeps count it might have errors of its own.

Played a WAD called Zzul Bases recently, it's three short, relatively normal techbase levels followed by a secret map which is the most insane platforming map I've ever played in Doom. It was absurdly frustating even with constant saving but also weirdly rewarding, worth checking out if you hate yourself.

Seemingly. Nightdive are usually not interested in finishing the work they started, and the actual port and engine devs in the overall Doom community were not exactly ecstatic at the sudden unannouced drop, or its implementation (like the fucking negative DeHacked range).
A lot of people liked certain features though, so many of them have been copied from ID24, in lieu of implementing a literally unfinishee spec.

I love Hexen. If anything it's Heretic that makes it hard for me to love it. It's cool and all but the enemies are so tanky and the weapons aren't as satisfying as doom's arsenal because they are magical instead of firearms and go pew pew zap zap instead of boom boom.
I still haven't played the expansion.

Crashes, new spec which they dropped out of nowhere and just expected everyone to accept, even though it's unfinished and they didn't consult any devs. Unlikely to finish as well, because if Nightdive doesn't finish something on release, they usually then never will.

Mirage Barrage is great, but plagued with coding issues. Inactive enemies behind pillars can be killed with a small explosion, due to coding error. Newbeasts on slopes can't use their shrinker properly.
Golden Carnage is awesome.
Tour de Nukem starts as a random usermap, but I love the sewer/subway/battlelord area.

I went in wanting to hate it, because I just loathe Randy Pitchford and I don't want to chalk up a win for him. But the episode itself is actually pretty decent. The new shrinky flamethrower alien is actually a threat, and I respect that. The flamethrower itself is just OK. Kind of neat because I like DoT but it never felt amazing to use.

I wonder how many people finished hexen without guides when it came out The first hub is easily the worst one and the KORAX book "puzzle" later in the game must've been borderline impossible to even notice with 320x200.
I think the same hub which has the book "puzzle" also has a softlock if you kill some of the enemies at the same time, so you can brick your entire playthrough. I think hexen is easily the best looking sprite-era game and the characters each feel great, but the "puzzles" are shit to put it mildly. The expansion pack dialed it back on them and is way less frustrating.

I finished Hexen without guides and I can confirm at one point in the first hub there was a single door still locked in the main area and I kept roaming around for an hour looking for a fucking switch. I don't even remember what it was in the end but I did get it.
Honestly, I almost respect making the very first hub the most confusing one by far. It's the devs saying "this is what you're in for fucker, buckle up."

Heretic is just a great fantasy-themed Doom clone. It's always had a good reputation.
Hexen is a bit more divisive particularly because of its convoluted level design, exploration, and puzzles but it would have been a genre defining classic if it were more dungeon crawly like Diablo. It has a similar atmosphere.

This is too reductionist. Is blood just a horror-themed Doom? Is Shadow Warrior just a ninja-themed Doom? Is duke just a Schwarzenegger-themed doom? Sure, they are all of that but they aren't "just" that. The feeling when playing them is different enough for them to be their own thing.

All of the best 90s retro fps games were front loaded with good reason. If you have a poor experience starting out, you're unlikely to expect anything good later. For example, doom 1/2, duke3d and blood are relatively front loaded. Hexen kind of sucks in the first hub and gets way better later, the last hub is braindead straightforward[/spoiler ] and I highly doubt most people bother with it past the shittest.

Heretic runs on the Doom engine and uses a lot of the same weapons and enemy behavior so it's not unfair to call it a Doom clone, but it brought a lot more to the table than I think people give it credit for and it certainly evolved the genre more than Doom II did.

Wolf 3D deserves better than the DOSBox port on Steam in 2025, but Brutal Wolfenstein 7.0 already does a Wolf 3D + Spear remake way better than anything Nightdive could do. All Wolf 3D needs is a basic ECWolf-style remaster which could be done in a few days.

ECWolf by itself solves the two biggest problems I have with vanilla Wolf3D by adding an automap and independent strafe left/right keys. Unfortunately, its behavior isn't 100% accurate to the original engine, last I checked. It's been a few years and for all I know they could've fixed that by now.

The Abyss is one of the best finisher maps ever in any FPS though. Fantastic build up modern boomshoot sloppa could only dream of. Ep1 deserves it's legendary status though, there's no filler like in ep3, no drones and battlelord spam from ep2. I'm not a big fan of ep4 because all maps are much more thematic in there, for better or worse. Ep2 is my favourite though but I understand why people don't like it

My bias towards E2 is that it blew me away as a kid so in my mind its still the coolest and most creative. My bias against The Abyss is that I got repeatedly lost in it as a kid, particularly the San Andreas fault trigger and the shrink ray puzzle.

I liked E2 because I'm a big sci-fi nerd, so an episode in space ships was interesting to me. The rocket that patrols around the border of the stage, taking potshots at you with RPG rounds... the secret in the Enterprise's bridge And the REALLY Ready Room was a cherry on top. Even with all that good will, explosive drones really make me look back on the levels with disdain. I don't even dislike challenge, but drones don't feel like a good kind of challenge. Just annoyingly tanky ammo thieves.

Mine was playing the shareware episode a ton, so when I finally get to playing the retail version I was pretty blown away by E2M1 and that tune. The drones, the battelords, the enforcers, I enjoyed dealing with the difficulty spike.
My bias against episode 3 is that it felt like a less memorable episode 1, even if it was nice going back to the city with the full enemy cast; any time I think I'm recalling an episode 3 level I go "oh wait that's from episode 4 actually". The way
>>11922456 describes the end of episode 5 also captures PERFECTLY how I felt about the end of episode 3, such an absolute wet fart of an endboss and a huge "that was it?" feeling.
The hate towards the drones is overblown, IMO.

QL is cucked beyond belief. That shit doesn't even have gibs without mods. I unironically reapect a guy playing Quake Arena Arcade by himself more than anybody who plays that trash. I'd tell you to just go play the original game but it's completely dead ever since CROM FFA shut down. The best you'll get are hundreds of empty bot servers or some garbage like Retro FFA or Lightning with retarded settings and niceguy redditor CROM immigrants who play for 20 minutes every few days.

Didn't play it today, won't really be able to keep up just posting the appropriate demo per day either, but I wanted to share it.
It's my first recorded UV Max from years ago. Right out of the gates after I did a basic run of Sunlust too, and I only recorded it because of the simplicity of doing so. And in the long run I'm glad I did so because the miseries I endured with some of the latter maps is somehow a fond memory I like looking back on. Even if these demos are only really special to me, I'm happy that I have them.

I've always assumed that lunge hits did the most damage during my vanilla doom playthrough. It just so happened that the more kinetic my punches were, the easier I could mow down the hordes of pinkies and chunkier were the flesh pieces of blown imps.

You can actually outrun hitscanners' aim in duke 3d, you would have taken less damage if you ran from one side of the doorway to the other instead of stopping halfway and reversing back into the same cover. Steroids also help.
>>11923568
I sincerely hope they just leave Heretic and Hexen alone, these games have persisted fine without constant rereleases like Doom for the people who actually care about them.
>same framework as last year's Doom 1+2 release
The "framework" for the rerelease is fundamentally based on mbf21, which doesn't exist (in a general, demo compatible format) for the Raven games (dsda-doom supports Heretic/Hexen, but forces a dos complevel). That's not to say they couldn't do it, but it would require a lot more work for a less popular franchise. If they did release some kinda new editing standard (Rav-25?, maybe) there's a good chance the community would just mostly ignore it like they did with id-24. Reminder that Ultimate Doom Builder still doesn't' support the mapping features introduced by id24, and the standard itself is somehow still in development despite now being 2025.
The rest of the "framework" I guess is the online loader, but that would hardly work for the Raven games, since there are few pwads (especially Hexen) and they frequently require GZ.

Nothing about mbf21 prevents it from being applied to other dos games. I think generalized actions/sector types are probably not going to conflict with Heretic/Hexen either.
Just need their native codepointers ported, since not everything can be replicated through generalized mbf21 code.

The framework to me is just console versions, easy game/expansion/wad switching menu, online cross play with consoles (and pc too sure ok who cares), built in mod downloader with community mod access.
That's it. And it's great. For consoles. For PC you don't need any of this. You can't hate that it'll be fucking sick to be able to jump into an online game of Heretic in minutes instead of having to debate which of the 15 different multiplayer launchers to use on pc.

I'm unironically glad to hear that, some people with a chip on their shoulder about the lack of online multiplayer actually will not.
Anyway, I'm sorry I can't satisfy your multiplayer bloodthirst, I was just never very good at the online multiplayer (for these games, anyway), so I wouldn't be a very worthy opponent.
It would be cool to have more multiplayer stuff around here, but I think people find themselves only having enough time for the stuff we currently do.
You could try to do your own here, maybe a few people would be interested, but since you sound like you're very well versed in Quake deathmatching, you're gonna reach the inevitable dilemma of you either roflstomping all these noobs, which gets old quick for both you and them, or you trying to hold back, which probably isn't gonna be fun for you.

that to 50 to -2 blowout i do to you? i get it done to me right back by an A rank player and that happens to an S rank player who plays rapha, it's the nature of a competitive sport to be like that
unfortunately e-sports is just a flash in the pan i'm accepting the entire FPS scene is DEAD and all that's left is fightan twice a year and dead mobatrash
if you talked to me into they heydays of CPL and Dreamhack i thought i would be hanging out a sports bar watching the sunday afternoon bracket but it never mainfested, twitch took over and pushed everything to individual personality faggot streamers

that's a euro time zone so i guess you're not setting up a US server
if this got done in NA i would recommend we play FFA and/or CA you do NOT want to play TDM or Duels with an experienced player
15v15 ra3map1 is probably a good handholding point if we can get enough players otherwise campgrounds will do (i don't think you want to play us in overkill)
we could also just gatecrash some poor guy's server instead of set up our own
i would like to play but my current keyboard is not gamer grade and the keys will probably jam if i try to flick a circle jump given how doom has been going

Just got trough WolfRPG. Last played it around 2010 on a Sony Ericsson, so the whole clunky ass turret segment, as well as the level in the middle of it were new to me, but overall the IOS version seems identical to the j2me version. I like some of the humor, and the graphics are pure soul, but the game is rather easy.
What surprised me the most is that you can keep playing after the credits roll, and even travel back all the way to the start of the game.
Good way to catch missed secrets without having to replay every fight again.
Anyone have any good way to play the Doom RPGs on PC?

Probably by Nightdive and not that much MachineGames. LoR only had one map by MachineGames employee. Kaiser and Xaser have both Heretic/Hexen mapping experience, so I'd expect most of the new maps to be theirs. Hell, maybe Shadows Of Cronos gets officialized.

I think someone made ports of them, look for it on doomworld.
Also go check out Orcs & Elves 1 and 2, 1st game has best version on DS and 2nd was on BREW (some weird mobile platform I never heard about), emulators should be good for both. I need to go finish them, have some saves still.

Flipping a switch just to figure out you have to backtrack two levels back,- where all the monsters were killed - because it opened up a gate across a bridge in a side path is bad game design. It's why you never saw shit like that in ID or 3DR games, it was always in expansions made by amateur studios that hadn't refined their skills yet.

The main campaign has the same issue just to a less severe degree. It's not hard to find your way around but the exploration and backtracking after you've disposed of all the enemies can get tedious and hurt the game's pacing.

It's helpful for Ground Zero and can be helpful for that one part in the Reckoning when you need to recover the radio, but it's largely unneeded for the main campaign and very unnecessary for the new maps.

I do actually see your point. I don't particularly like Hexen, but its design, even if I think it's misguided, is what it is, and I think that you couldn't really do too radical changes to the game's levels or designs and have it be at all faithful.
I think that fans of the game, who have played it many times, forget that much of this shit is just REALLY non-obvious, and they aren't like some kind of point and click logic puzzle, or a riddle, sometimes you just pull a lever and you get a short piece of text telling you virtually nothing at all.
"One third of the puzzle has been solved." doesn't exactly convey anything to someone who didn't even realize that they were interacting with what was supposed to be a puzzle to begin with.
"Something has changed in X location." is better, because it adds some context, but often this means going to that map and then scouring through it (like you may already have done), to see if anything is different.
Making new graphics to make a lot of the switches look more unique I think would be a small change for the better, and then maybe writing somewhat more descriptive text blurbs for this stuff.
Like if each "puzzle" with multiple switches like this had its own unique text, that'd do a lot, and it wouldn't need to be a novel or anything.
>>11927017
Wait, what the FUCK? Again, I don't even like the game much, but that's stupid as fuck.
If there was ONE change I'd make to Hexen's enemy roster at all, it wouldn't be to gimp the Imps, for God's sake, it would be to let you use weapon attacks to stagger the Centaurs to break them out of their shield block (like maybe you can slam them two or three times in quick succession with Timon's Hammer or something).
Revealing the map like that is also just a fucking cheat. How the fuck do they respect the game less than I do?

The puzzle part isn't actually the worst thing there, it's the Seven Portals bit, most of the audience that it got from Doom and Heretic have no fucking clue where that is, or what it is.
They failed to realize that a lot of these people don't look at the automap and see the name at the bottom, or that they'd go there and hear the sounds of a door opening when they got there.

Lots of complex mechanics make them very unreliable. Best use for them is as a melee weapon, at that distance the shards don't spawn and you get 90-105 damage. If you do use for further away then it spawns one shard, that then spawns 4 more, each of which then spawn more 4 and then I think the last ones spawn 8 more. The problem here is that the damage ranges are wild. If all the shard spawns and all of them hit the target you could do anything from 17 to 136. Pic related is from the wiki explaining the shard spawning mechanics.
The fire rate is dependent on if you hold the mouse button or not. Holding it has faster fire rate.
