Phobos Anomaly alpha



If you think that it's too short or something needs to be changed, please tell me


My directional arrows and starting line textures are required, but if they don't get approved i'll remove them from the map

I've been working on the layout for the wolfenstein map, but I might make it cross over itself a bit more. I'm also thinking of putting in pushwalls as hazards, what do you guys think?

[agaures]

Are there only 4 maps per episode?

[GooberMan]

Yes. Three main circuits and one secret that is triggered by in-map actions on the third race OR as a sudden death single lap in the case of an overall cup tie.

[agaures]

Dunno where my map fits into then.

(not done yet btw)

Probably either an extra map ala SRB2's maps for its other game modes or in its own map pack. Not sure how scalliano's organizing the non-story maps.

Non-story? Nobody ever mentioned that there was a story i had to follow.

[GooberMan]

Then you should probably read the discussion thread. That is where all the development stuff is being discussed.

The six cups are representative of the Doom/Doom 2 story. Phobos, Deimos, and Inferno cover Doom. Industrial Zone, Hometown, and Return to Hell cover Doom 2.

[scalliano]

Probably done with this for today; still got a lot of things left to do though!



As you see, I'm attempting to make it not a tedious drive through a weird shape.

Also those monsters are there to spice up the room a bit; I might remove them later. (EDIT: And they cannot interact with racers! They only stomp around and make noise.)

(also p.s. im not on the list, thanks in advance)

Looking the part, from what I can tell from a DB2 shot, anyway! Having monsters on the map isn't an issue in itself, but what I would say is that it might be a good idea to have them taking pot shots at the racers, especially since it's for race 3. Taking them out with the kart weapons could trigger the bonus round, I dunno, just throwing ideas out there.

Anyway, you're added to the map roster. Only 6 spaces left!

E2M3 layout, here we go!

Influences by Torm´s refinery are there


Now it´s time to detail!

This worries me slightly.

If you mean purely in terms of layout, that's not an issue, but the idea is to make the actual maps themselves look at least similar to their vanilla counterparts. Don't get too carried away here.

[GooberMan]

I nearly threw a "No Torm levels of detail" in to the mapping guidelines, but I was hoping that one would just be understood implicity

[Guardsoul]

It was just the caves part just as a little tribute but I can remove them. All other rooms are like the original E2M3 ones but slightly modified to adjust them to the circuit.

Cant reach Torm´s level with only Doom and Doom 2 textures, I´m just making the rooms a bit better looking (little borders here and there, some slopes in the ceiling and so on) so dont worry.

That's fine, as I said before, nothing wrong with a bit of artistic licence. I was more concerned about extraneous detailing ie having a mod consisting entirely of vanilla-style maps and then one KDiZD one. Still not sure about adding borders, but I'd need to see the map first. Like I said, don't get too carried away.

I like the idea, what about the project owners?
