Another queston: In the "Doom Bible", the Baron of Hells had another name, they where called something like "Brothers of blabla" ... I have no idea, but their original supposed name was not "Baron of Hell, it was something else... anyone knows?!

There are a few alignment issues in the "sewage area". Also, the bottom of the textures surrounding the nukage looks fugly after the nukage turns into blood - I have a version of this texture with the green turned into red, I'll see if I can dig it out

.

Anyway, I love the way this map gradually evolves from E1 to E2 style, and the trips to hell are very nice too

. BTW, am I right in thinking the first bit of hell was inspired by the organic levels of System Shock 2?

@T667 -The names were the "Bruiser Brothers".

@Nightmare - Great to hear that, I will add it to the resource if you upload it somewhere

@All - Can someone give me a scipt that executes "script 8" after all monsters with the TID 77 are dead!?

@All2 - Is someone interested in creating altered more sacrying sounds for the "Bruiser Brothers" ?? Something like the Baron, but more ... scary and horrible

How much time Do I have to finish things with ZE1M3? Work will accelerate now greatly:

1. Long weekend (All saint's day) + 1 hour backwards due to time shift.
2. I'm 95 % done with the crazy Yellow Keycard area, which is twisted by 45 degrees, what in result, makes editing very difficult.
3. Collected some good and simple ideas
4. I'm just eager to do it, seeing how fine work on other levels goes...

So... How much Time?

5.The force field is triggered with the switch by the door in the west hall from the center of the facility (+ room) it toggles destructive barriers that destroy everything in range-this is great when demons teleport in to the areas. Switch the force fields on and watch them fry on it. Turn it off to walk freely again.
This is great to confine ammunition

and I've just learned how to make decent force fields

Yes, partially, the idea of the growing flesh

Hell could be treated as "vile flesh" as well. And Yes, You are witnessing what has happened to the Deimos base and is happening to Phobos ATM. Possibly whole Phobos will turn into a hellish base and degradate into hell eventually, only by that time You are already on Deimos

Now here's something I've done far too many times...

Code: Select all

#include "zcommon.acs"

script # OPEN
{
if (Thingcount (77, 0) == 0)
{
ACS_Execute (8, MAP#, 0, 0, 0);
}
Delay (1);
restart;
}

If you spawn those monsters however, just set that script to void and execute it right after all of the monsters are spawned.

Isn't that less than/greater than sign suppoed to be facing the other way? I though that you'd have wanted the barons to be greater than zero so that when u killed them both it would be zero and then the script would execute

No, Kirby. The script is checking every second to see if the number of objects with Thing Tag 77 is 0 or less. If it isn't then Script 8 is executed.

His original Script was like this:

Code: Select all

While(ThingCount(77,0)<0)

That script was checking to see that yes, but I think he wanted the script to check if the Objects tagged 77 were above zero. If they weren't dead, then they would be above zero, thus making it delay until they either reached zero or got below zero (in which case they were killed, and you cant really go below zero...)
