This actually doesn't look too bad. I encourage you to keep it up.

Yes i sort of like the clean looks of it, except the white fog. I dont really recommend having fog at all, but its your call. also the red on the floor in the last shot is a little questionable too... If its supposed to be blood you should set your textures on the walls to have like bloodstains on the bottom. right now it looks like a red ugly carpet.

otherwise, cool.

Pretty much exactly what I was gonna say. It almost looks like it has a classic feel to it. Good to see that there are still new mappers out there who are interested in improving.

Just tried it, the mod seems decent and relatively fun to play. map layout is good. I love the large open areas. The only complains I have in general is the texture misalignment and the conflicting texture colors, and the noisy weapon rips. There also seems to be a giant HOM when you look straight up at the sky. Not really sure what's causing it.

thanks for the feedback everyone.

for those who havnt tried out my original wad i shall give you some screenshots on how i improved on it.

the picture on the left is the remake

now heres a look at how map01 has been remade. (the one on the top is the original, the bottom picture is the remake)

Spoiler:

the top map exit on the remake leads to the map blood chasm(new map), the bottom one leads to the map Ancient Tomb(map02 remake)

I have never been good at texturing, so if anything sees weird texturing in any of the remake screenshots please let me know.

scattered throughout maps will be pockets of friendly marines that have survived the demon assault. most friendly marines are found in secrets and wont be useful to you unless you find the secret their hiding in. friendly marines randomly spawn with a differant weapon, the weapons they can have are chainguns shotguns and plasmaguns(plasma marines being the most rare). friendly marines can prove to be very useful in this wad, however they have slightly more health than demons and have a medium to high pain chance so protecting marines you find is important if you want them to survive. when they die they can drop some useful items(not guns or powerups).

the friendly marines wont be overpowered like the ones in my original wad though, so you must protect them.

Hi. If you want I could test your wad for bugs, etc... . Just send me a PM if you're interested.

added to the list of contributers! thanks for helping test merlin86

no problem btw will you use decorate and/or acs scripting?

yes there will be decorate and acs scripting. most acs scripting will be for traps, monster death events and whenever you open a secret with friendly marines a diolog box will pop up with the marines face saying messages like "Thankyou for saving us, now lets go save our planet"

there will be some custom weapons and monsters just like in my original, but not cheesy or unbalanced.

I think this was designed for the software renderer. I don't know how GL is supposed to handle regular sky textures without giving HOM though ...

You are correct. Back then i was new to doom mapping, but i learned quite fast. Though originally Global Death was just a wad i made that took all of what i learned and applyed it.

I actually liked the wad i made eventhough i look at it now and say to myself "what was i thinking? god i actually made maps like this?". Even a few friends of mine enjoy playing this once in a while.

Because of this i desided i wanted to remake my first wad ever and make it better.

looking at your old DB shot and your new one. I like the old one because of the interesting shapes, a lot of people tend to make everything square and therefore manages to make stuff a little booring. I'd say keep the cool angular stuff you had in the first one.

@icytux i shall try to make more angled sectors, eventhough square looks more neat and tidy. the major upside to square is flat alignment(too bad you cant adjust flats like you can walls)

thankyou for the feedback

I'm still looking for more testers for this wad. I need people that can give good feedback on mapping , texturing , difficulty and monster and item placement.

I'm able to do some testing if you want. I could use a break from C&C...
