Because of it, the newly revamped halfway-finished MAP01 got deleted. Do not worry however - I'll start over and do it even better this time.

Luckily i still posess the plans and "blueprints" for the MAP01 revamp and Im going to work on it no matter what, don't worry!
Please see my previous post on using version control systems. It's the last post of the first page of this thread (after you lost data last time). Using a version control system isn't complicated, it's free, and will save you from this sort of trouble.

I work as an indie developer and my entire livelihood relies on my data being safe and being able to roll back to previous versions of files in the event of data loss or an overwrite. I do these sorts of mistakes all the time but version control tools come to the rescue every time. Please look into it as it would be very sad if anything major happened to your wonderful project.

In just one day I managed to re-build the revamped MAP01 to the state it was left in before the error, and improve it!



Now onto making the second part of it, featuring all the famous MOTI MAP01 elements, with the house and the Revolta outpost/mine.

The newly redesigned MAP01 Is finished, and thus im officially on the last stretch of finishing the mod at last - retexturing and fixing all 10 maps. Once that is done, i'll playtest through the wad, and release it!

The ultimate version is done - the only thing left to do in this mod is to see what people think when playing it, fixing it, and then i'll release it, grab the latest Release Candidate version here:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/yl6mqqm1e ... 2.pk3/file

It features the new and improved, much simpler MAP01 - I realized the original MAP01 was a bit convoluted, so I simpled it down and made it look better, at least I think I did.

Here's my feedback so far:

The DSSWTCHX sound on the menu plays twice for some reason.

On MAP01, it seems like the hint about not shooting the civilians isn't there any more like it was in the previous release candidate.

On MAP02, some of the keys are in the wrong spots. I was able to find the crooked key and open up Hammer's office without having to go upstairs.
There's also a door that cannot be opened, and a secret area which I wasn't able to find out how to get to. I'd suggest having the door to the secret area open up once you've picked up the key to Hammer's office.
Also, there seems to be no health pickups in the area where you find the boat.

On MAP03 (actually MAP04) in the underground areas, there were some walls that I could apparently walk through, behind which were sloped floors. I encountered this weird problem before when DoomJuan was working on a map for WolfenDoom: Blade of Agony, and some of the sectors' floors were above their ceilings, or vice versa, which caused GZDoom to display walls.

On MAP04 (actually MAP05), I'd like to know where you got the BIELUCH track from. I think it would fit one of the new maps in WolfenDoom: Blade of Agony chapter 3 well.

On MAP07, there is a door that opens up to nothingness.

Why are there boxes of bullets lying around if there's no gun that uses them?

Some of the weapons' icons, such as the icon for the double-barrel shotgun, make their ammo count very hard to see on the HUD.

BTW, what is the titular "Mystery" if the psychic guy just fills you in on the situation right from the get go?

BIELUCH is a track from Resident Evil 3's soundtrack, and it's called The Disused Plant.

Feedback for map 1:

You can walk through the plants here and out of the level bounds.


You can walk between all these buildings and get hit up against a very abrupt skybox wall. Not a bug so much but feels like you aren't supposed to be able to.


This fence isn't solid and you can walk right through it, leading to outside the level bounds.

Otherwise it seems like a huge improvement over the last build I played. The reloading mechanic removes the only real frustration I was having, and it's great that there are no longer so many invisible walls. I'll let you know about anything else I find as I make more progress. It's great fun!

All fixed! Seems like the skybox wall was caused by the floor being higher than the ceiling, as I was able to deduce through your screenshots, now they're all done.

Very impressive and immersive TC. I love the tropical and tribal feeling into it and the overall detail on the maps are stellar. Since i enjoyed this a lot, i would like to make some suggestions:

You're playing on an old build. The download on the first page is way out of date. Look a little bit above your post for the most recent release.
