is there a way to enable textured automap like duke3d/blood had?automap issues
automap issues
i'm not sure if i should post this in feature suggestions or not... the default zdoom/gzdoom automap is rendered pretty useless in complex levels like the KDiZD ones... if you get lost and try to find your way navigating in automap, you are likely to end up drowning in slime or getting stuck is there a way to enable textured automap like duke3d/blood had?
is there a way to enable textured automap like duke3d/blood had?-

Nope.
Re: automap issues
In a way, complex levels are easier to navigate. The more detailed a level is, the more likely you are to find some landmarks to go by. In the old days, the automap was useful when every friggin' corridor looked the same. 
Re: automap issues
well, in e.g. KDiZD new issues arise, like "i found an orange/cyan/magenta keycard but i'm sure i've never seen the door requiring it... wtf!?"
Re: automap issues
I just didn't have the patience to finish KZiZD. I'll go play classic Knee-Deep if I want to with some dynamic lights, I don't need to double my money.Gendo wrote:well, in e.g. KDiZD new issues arise, like "i found an orange/cyan/magenta keycard but i'm sure i've never seen the door requiring it... wtf!?"
Re: automap issues
i am determined to beat it without cheats, weapons are quite nice and level design too (visually at least), so i'll do my best

Locked doors and switches are properly color coded unless you use traditional colors.

Re: automap issues
Why doesn't GZDoom have anti-aliasing for the automap like ZDoom does?

People should make the details hidden on automap!

That's a bad idea. There would be no doors in the automap.The_afrit wrote:People should make the details hidden on automap!

Because last time I checked it looked like crap in OpenGL.
Re: automap issues
zdoomgl has a "duke3D-like" automap feature though
but it doesn't work like it should, and neither does it help to navigate around the maps.
