I'm here

First thing: Who has E1m4? I would like to see some screenshots. I mean c'mon, I've put almost 3500 sectors there o_0 would like to see how it's progressing, many parts need to be finished, still.
How's e1m3? Now I've seen no screenshots from that map

E1m1 anyone? And Bio-how's e1m9?
Now it's my 5 minutes:

More like Mars, rather than Phobos 0_o

Surprise!

I've rebuilt the central Hub, not to mention the proceedur of unlocking the next colored doors. Bah, the whole way trough the map has been seriously altered, like a wild good chase after beta, gamma, admin yadda yadda passes and locks

now comes the big cake

o___0
uhh. yup

That's E1M6? Very impressive. The last version of that map was somehow inadequate to this project...

Please use zip or rar compression this time. I have no idea how to open a zip22 file.

They name it zip22 because the damned website won't upload regular zips. Just rename the zip22 file to normal zip and then unzip normally -_-

I would like to make sweet love to your screen shots

ive been doing a whole lot of nothing on M9 for the longest time, i have a great idea, but im always afraid i wont have enough time so it makes it all the harder to even get started. and on top of it i have a lot of other projects to work on (not doom stuff) so i dont have much time either

i really hope i get this done

OMFG THAT LIGHT ON THE WALL IN THE FIRST SCREENIE ACTS UNREALISTICALLY YOU FAIL IT!!!!11o1eN1eon!OEn

EDIT: And the lights in the second screenie, it seems...

Those lights also appear to be in the last screen as well. Exactly what about them is "unrealistic?" The fact that they only light up the vertical column they're mounted to? O_o

(Note: I'm relatively new to ZDoom, and have only been [trying] to map for a few days, testing different things out.)

That's one, but what I was getting at was that some of the light appears to be getting sent above the bottom of the light post thing. (I know of a trick with slopes that can be used to fix this...

)

Well, I think the effect I mentioned is probably possible; if the lights are in the center of the mounting shell, their light would be limited to the extent of the shell itself before it even leaves the shell, thus forcing the light to go in a more or less linear path.

No need for tricks, the Sector floor/ceiling light specials are all that's needed.

... But there'd still be a little bit of light on the wall above the post thing. So, the transfer light special would be part of the solution, but you'd need something else as well....

Um, not if you do it correctly.

Anyway, progress!
- New exteriors for M1-M9 are finished! Some of them could use more detail but as a first pass, I am quite pleased.
- Cameras have been moved over.
- As NMN's buildings are no longer necessary, they have been removed.

Left to go:
- M10 exterior
- Script changes to accomodate M10
- Time/Weather adjustments per map (can't complete this until I have finalized skyboxes)
- Create interface for other maps (specifically CREDIT) to access useful stat information.
- Develop final interface
- Testing, testing testing...
- Building exteriors, second pass (I am thinking about handing off this map for another mapper to spice these up, so there is more than one style there)

I still need finalized skyboxes! Most of the skyboxes have warping clouds. This looks strange! I think it should be taken out in favor of something different. Please make the change and get these to me ASAP!

I liked the first Community Map Project, and what is currently the [unfinished] second CMP; I might want to help with ZDCMP2 or KDiZD, but I have yet to learn much about mapping, so I'll wait until I'm a bit more proficient with it to inquire.

Keep up the good work.
