Know your fellow editors...

[Phobus]

I really fancy updating now, seeing as I've improved and changed:

Code: Select all

User Name: Phobus
Real Name: James Cresswell
Age: 15 (16 in November)

IWADS: UDoom, Doom 2, TNT, Plutonia
Source Ports: ZDoom (I used to use Doom95)
Preferred IWAD: Doom 2
Preferred Mapstyle: Whatever, really. I'm yet to try something I can't do.
Favourite WADs: Torment & Torture (I loved it, and it was the first one to come to mind) Zen Dynamics.

MAP Editors: Doom Builder (I used to use DEU2 until about 3 months ago)
Resource Editors: XWE (though it used to be DeHackEd and NWT)
Other Editors: good ol' Windows Paint (pixel by pixel, of course)

Mapping Skill: on a scale of 1 to 10, I'd say 7.
Scripting Skill: (ACS) 4 or 5. (I'm a bit new to this but find learning it quite easy)
'Paint'ing Skill: 5(? I'm doing alright, but I'm limited as to what I can draw)
DECORATE Skill: 5 (same as ACS)
Story Skill: 5 (I haven't really tried yet, so I'm just going to guess at 5) if the ZDoom RPG counts I'd say maybe a 7.

Detail Obsession: I don't go back to old levels of mine and update them, but all of my new levels are detail intensive.
Bug Fixing: I see a bug, I'll go through hell and high water to fix it (Unless I can't, or it's an old level)

WADS released: None (yet)
WADS in Progress: SCOURGE (21 levels and 2 secrets. The main body of the levels is a bit of a learning curve example, because I'm not updating them, but they improve, and my nearly done secret level is looking good); Water Resource Wad (slow progress, but it's getting there.)

Also working on: ZDCMP2 (I've got loads of little areas on there now :D)

Comments: You can disagree with any of the above, as long as there are reasons attached.

EDIT:ed to solve a problem.

[Phobus]

Thats the first time I've ever done that.... poor me, I'm on a decline

[Xaser]

I'm not quite sure how many times I've updated this, but here I go again:

Code: Select all

User Name: Xaser
Real Name: [hidden For Great Justice]
Age: random(16,19);

IWADS: UDoom, Doom 2, TNT, Plutonia, Heretic, Hexen, Strife
Source Ports: ZDoom (best), EDGE (for playing some weapon mods)
Preferred IWAD: Doom 2
Preferred Mapstyle: Anything really, although I like Hell and Techbase styles quite a bit. :P
Favourite WADs: Massmouth 2 (inspiration++), TNT series (just plain awesome), Mock2 (yay!)

MAP Editors: Doom Builder (Absolute greatest)
Resource Editors: XWE (Works perfectly for me. :P )
Other Editors: Windows Paint (actually somewhat useful), Paint Shop Pro 7 (because 8 and 9 suck), Notepad (omg), Impulse Tracker (for music and such)

Mapping Skill: 8.5. I'm not Tormentor, but I do all right.
Scripting Skill: 8, probably. I'm no LWM, but I do all right. :P
Drawing Skill: For computer drawing (PSP7 and the like), I'd say around 6 .5 or so. However, my real-life drawing skills are about a 1. :P
DECORATE Skill: 5 (same as ACS)
Story Skill: 8

Detail Obsession: Pretty damned high. One of these days, I'll round up some D2C screenshots for everyone to feast their eyes on... :P
Bug Fixing: Bugs suck. I fix any and every bug I spot (assuming its fixable). Unfortunately, my bug-spotting skills fail it sometimes, so that's where tons of beta-testers come in handy. :P

WADS released: Tons of weapon mods (all ending with _X), SHiTWADS series, I.C.T.O.A.N., and Zen Dynamics

WADS in Progress: A hell of alot...

Death to Chainsaws: My main project, which done successfully, will be greater than Massmouth 2. You'll have to see it to believe it. :P

Scythe_X: A weapons mod I've started, intended to be good enough to rival Immoral Conduct. However, I'm still waiting on ZDoom's reloading system to be imported, so progress is coming a bit slowly here.

Zen Dynamics: Well, it's technically finished, but I still need to upload to /idgames eventually, and you never know when another weird bug might pop up randomly. :P

Lost SOulsphere 2: Zombieman Unleashed: Currently not my main focus, but it's not dead, I'll tell you that. :P

HELLDOOM: This one's a bit questionable as to whether it will actually get done. Seeing that 50 maps is a hell of alot, and most of the best maps found their way into Zen Dynamics anyway, it would be kind of an anti-climax after releasing D2C...


Also working on: Something else, unofficially. It's a secret though, so don't ask.

Comments: And Stuff.

All depends on the talk- if one wants to use RPG talk the first one is better (it sounds like a modifier) but if codetalk is preferred the second one is correct (because it's valid script syntax).

Also, my favorite tools are listed on my most recent DA journal entry. (hit the webpage button in my profile, I'm too lazy to give you a [link])
