The WIP Thread

Why not just do "drawimage weaponicon" and then "Inventory.Icon" in weapon's decorate?

I see it as being rather inflexible to use.
Meanwhile, I am tweaking the Genesis skill to be even tougher and to have replaced enemies - with a slight AI gimmick that I'm not sure how it would go.

Kinsie and Cutman were making nes-themed doom mods, so I decided to experiment and made an nes-themed doom track.

I might make a few more and if they sound good, I'll do all of them. =P

[DoomRater]

Mmmm.

I have a slight request: there was an original track in "The Last Resort"- would love to hear an 8-bit version of that! But between the samples and the MIDI I already have, it doesn't sound hard to do it myself, I think....

Not bad! For reference, here's a version of the same song someone did for the actual NES sound hardware. You'll need a Winamp/Foobar/whatever NSF plugin like this to listen to it.

Something I dug up yesterday evening that I'll probably continue:

Not sure if you can spot the lens flare, but there it is. I was working on high-quality effects and ACS-states for standard decorations (so they have lens flares, particle effects, etc. and they could be turned on and off).

[CaptainToenail]

Um, I think I can just about see it, Ghastly, perhaps a little too subtle?

Here's some shots of a Boom map I've been working on last few days, the Loathsome Library:

In a still screenshot, it isn't too visible, but the flare grows/shrinks with the decoration's animation, so it's pretty noticable in-game.

Nice screenshots, by the way, but I'm not sure the doortrak texture in the third screenshot fits, though I'd have to play the map to be able to really tell.

I got this working well: effectively dual-wielding the shotgun and pistol

After a couple months' hiatus from mapping, I've been working on one of my Eternity maps again. Mostly just been improving some areas I've already shown off, but here's a work-in-progress new room that I started on tonight. Usually I like to wait until I have more to show, but I haven't had any screenshots to post in months now, so oh well.

[Project Shadowcat]

Jebus Krust, sl4tm. And it's around this point I start making textures for details like that.

[esselfortium]

For which parts? The only parts I can think of that could have been made to look similarly with a texture instead of map geometry would have taken more work to do as a texture than they did to just build

(And I had to make custom-fitted textures for the sloped metal bars between the tekwall indent and the ceiling, anyway)

[Project Shadowcat]

The piping especially, I was thinking. That can be quickly recycled into other pieces of the map on a wall or floor.

I came buckets.

Oh, those are all over the place, especially the smaller ones; they don't take long to build at all

[Project Shadowcat]

.... Shush.
