Doom 1 Relighted with dynamic lights showcase

Post by xX_Lore29_Xx »

Hello, well i wanted to show you a mod i have been working on, the mod aims to relight the whole Doom 1 with dynamic lights to give it a more "realistic" look, the general map aesthetic is based off AndrewMRX's test maps for it's Doom parallax mod which i highly recommend using (see link below)
viewtopic.php?t=70804
I have made a video that showcases the mod in more depth so you can watch it if you want

Here you can download the mod: https://www.mediafire.com/file/783gkr7r ... P.rar/file, as of now i have only relighted the first chapter of the game, if you have any feedback feel free to tell me
That being said, thanks.

I've notice you've used non attenuated lights. Those don't work with normal maps.

They work with normal maps. You can see it in my previous post.

If by normal maps you mean like the parallax-bump effect, from what i have tested with the DHTP + PBR mods everything seems to work fine, i could use attenuated lights but i can't find an special advantage over normal ones

Hey, just a heads up; try to reply to multiple messages in one single reply when you're getting to them, especially if you're gonna do it between short time spans. This is to prevent clutter and keep things more organized.

Thanks!

Unattenuated lights do not completely support all advanced lighting features, so you should avoid them if you want to light a scene.

One other thing: I see you use almost pure red/green lights in some spots. You really shouldn't do that - always mix at least 30-40% of white light into the color so that the primary colors of the light do not make the scene look monochromatic.

I thought modified IWAD levels aren't allowed to be distributed?

IWAD levels are perfectly fine, modified, as long as the author does a bare minimum to ensure that it only works in the game from which it was sourced. Otherwise KDiZD would've been quite illegal indeed.

A strict rule about modifying IWAD levels would've put a massive crimp on a whole lot of Doom modding, anyhow, since there's so many Entryway modifications and remakes.

The archive contains only maps, anyway, and ones that are freely available via Shareware at that (though the registered version maps would be fine too, as long as they didn't include enough to run the full original game).

Very nice. Maybe electric lights are too much sometimes (aesthetically) but lighting looks nice.
