I'm pretty sure that contrary to me, he was just bad ass and did it by hand

Perfectly doable, but it's a huge time saver when you just want some abstract detail.

Are you suggesting that you are not, in fact, a badass? Them's fightin' wor- Ooooooh. Right.

That does look super-cool. Hell, I wish I had even the skill to use a texture generator properly. My "from scratch" capabilities are somewhere around "Blake Stone" style. (Not saying much, I guess. )

[Cage]

To be honest, I don't really know how to use one either. I just picked one which has a ton of nice presets already https://filterforge.com/

Besides saving you the fuss of creating some repeatable abstract detail, generated textures scale into low resolution a ton better than photo-textures IMO.

[Gez]

Damn, you can really go a long way with a decent procedurally generated base and digital painting on-top

Before reading the words, my first thought for this picture was "fancy automap view of a complex level".

Then why show it off?

[DoomKrakken]

To show that it's his work in progress, or to show it will be implemented in one of his works in progress.

DAMN, it'd be cool if those were lines to some cyberpunk map.

I think i'll just make them A_Die when shrunk and expanded.

[Rifle Marine]

I don't know what I am doing or drawing.
Here's some crappy edgy sketch thing.

Sadly, I wouldn't trust any honors for "you may not use this" given what i've seen.

*cough*that one github avatar guy*cough*nazis! derivatives*cough*


though i will mention it is reminiscent of that one Hexen metal wall texture everyone loves to steal and claim how its so public domain that Raven stole it off a guy's gif page first, along with the Descent explosion which is similarly retconned by people as stolen off a gif page

Is there communism going on in Doom community? If so, I didn't get the memo

I'm sure that everyone who did a project with custom art, music or even scripts can relate to the urge to:

1. Show your work to both promote it and get some feedback
2. At the same time keep it exclusive to your project not to spoiler it

It's nothing commercial, so everything in due time. Unless I'm weird and everyone else thinks that for example, seeing the sprites for a new boss before you have the experience of fighting it in-game is cool and dandy.

"But it's just textures!" - Then you don't realise how much textures are a part of the environment and how much that's the part of the whole experience, dear sir.

To show that it's his work in progress, or to show it will be implemented in one of his works in progress.

Also to let you guys know that are really helpful tools that can help you out even if you're not an artist!

Cheers folks,

making some Devil Daggers-style bloody disintegration deaths for monsters
shit quality webm

now if i only knew how to make flat floor blood stains
then archviles can pull the monsters up from red puddles with more fancy effects

How to write a bad celshader in GLSL!!!


- make edge outlines by sobeling edges from the depth buffer (which has artifacts with....... everything)
- calc some psuedo bump for lighting
- generate some black sobel outlines by shader from diffuse texture, applying over the shader
. divide diffuse texture by its monochrome itself to flatten the image. this is the problem area tbh, real celshading works with properly made diffuse textures and not onthefly pixel normalization
- clamp/posterize lighting to 2 levels.

This is clearly not GG Xrd's technique. just something halfassed i thought of while goofing around with glsl lighting.

[Captain Ventris]

Screwed around with getting four attacks from one weapon: one for tapping each fire button, one for holding each button for a moment. Got it feeling pretty good so far. Now to make everything much prettier and smoother and fancier in Doomvengers. Just can't shake the feeling that it needs a little bit of sprucing up and smoothing out rough edges, etc.

It's okay if you want to make it look like they're watching the flash of an atomic bomb; but the lightning is a bit too stark if they aren't supposed to be vaporized within the next second.

[Captain J]

Agreed, too much atomic lights going to melt our faces. Otherwise they looks good!
