I feel like this was a super popular mod when it released but I can't find it. The player could stop time.

I believe it's about 10 years old. gzDoom project with just a few levels iirc. You would have to freeze time and then run across lost souls or pinkies for some of its puzzles. I think there was also fire in vents you had to navigate with the time stop ability.

Lastly, there was a custom mastermind boss that could stop time herself. And you had to use your ability to counter hers.

I thought it was on Doom Mod Madness but can't seem to find it.

A huge thanks to whoever can reunite me with this unique little project.

I have a recollection that there is a mod that makes normal Doom levels look and feel like Doom64 ones. It changes textures to D64-ified equivalents, replaces the weapons and monsters with their D64 counterparts and also changes sound effects and (probably) music too.

However, I can't find it - so maybe it's some fever dream I had.

Does it exists and, if so, anyone got a link?

I don't know if I should be asking here or the Mod Download Broken thread. I think it should be here but if not, let me know and I'll delete this post (if possible) and try there.

Does anyone happen to have a fixed copy of NDCP2? I remember downloading a copy (I think it was from Mediafire) that made map 2 beatable as well as having other bug fixes. I'm trying to find it again but I'm coming up empty. It's not on The Sentinel's Playground and a few searches have turned up nothing on my end.

I remember playing this wad with Brutal Doom or Project Brutality, i remember this annoying map where you start with one pillar on your left and another on your right, behind the pillars there are one Imp on each pillar. At your front you have a view of the Blue key on top an elevation with 4 sergents, when you move to proceed you can go left to grabb a SSG if you do so to black walls go down setting free 4 imps and 2 Revenants if you go right you get shot by 2 sergeant that on a elevantion which at their back is an wall that gives access to a blue armor. When you get to the 2 sergeant you go to a ladder where there is the damn key on another evelation and at the end of the sector there is a door with an HellKnight on the third ladder on the entire map. Climb the second ladder to interact with a button to drop the elevation so you can get the key but it also drop a wall with 4 Cacos

Well im a bit silly and didnt spot this thread but luckily i found it ill copy and paste what i made on here hope i can get some help. Now before this i have to preface this was only a full weapon overhaul mod/wad. I have been trying to find this one weapon mod for doom 2 for ages i used to have it but i don't anymore. it was a while back while i only used a laptop. all i remember from it is that all the weapons were mostly spell types and used hand gestures and they were all very pixelated. i remember a few of the weapon attacks 1 was you doing two slashes shooting out while making the same side slash gesture. And the other one that i remember where you fired off an explosive/fire diamond. i wish i could remember more but its all i have for now.

I am not 100% positive on this, because I've never actually played it extensively, but that does sound like the kind of thing Guncaster would do, might be worth giving that a shot. Otherwise, I don't know.

[HELP] Looking for a Doom WAD I played a while back — total conversion, dreamlike, floating islands, pastel art style
I played this Doom WAD in like 2011-13, and it's been living in the back of my head ever since and I cannot for the life of me remember what it was called! It was a total conversion where absolutely nothing felt like doom anymore, Every single asset was replaced and the gameplay was this weird sky island platformer with a pastel crayon dreamlike color scheme.

Here's everything I remember:

1. Total conversion — zero Doom assets remaining, completely unrecognizable as Doom
2. First person (standard Doom perspective)
3. Set entirely in the sky — floating islands you jump between, very vertical
4. Heavy platforming focus — jumping between platforms was core to the gameplay
5. Dreamlike and surreal vibe throughout
6. Pastel color palette — soft, almost crayon-like or hand-drawn texture look, very unique art style
7. Short name — maybe around 3 letters? Possibly starting with O, but honestly not certain
8. Ran on GZDoom (or similar source port)

If any of you legends can find this...please...
