Testmap for DOOM 2 (GZDoom)

Post by KSPBaron145 »

I have created a test map for vanilla DOOM 2.
EDIT:
I have updated MOAR things so it should work a lil better.
EDIT 2:
Made the following changes:
- Added more health/armor items.
- Added more powerups.
- Monsters are now a bit more spaced out.
- Added more weapons.
- Moved player 1 start.
- Added other player starts. (2-8.)
- Added 1 more row of weapons.
- Added 1 more row of monsters.
Thats it-

You are in the wrong forum - you posted this in the Raze forum, which is for the Build Engine games. I've moved you to the right place, though.

What do you mean by "testmap?" What is it testing, or what is its purpose?

This map may serve as a test map for monster and weapon replacement mods.
It has several downsides:
- monsters don't retaliate, so this map won't show enemy attacks;
- unless you summon an enemy with a console command, then all enemies present on the map start attacking the player at once, and stop doing so when the summoned enemy is dead. Not sure if this is intended or a bug, it's odd in either case;
- there is only one instance of each weapon, may be not very convenient for weapon randomizers;
- a bit too cramped for my tastes, a bit of space between enemies won't hurt;
- ammo is not grouped by type;
- armor and health is not present;
- it would be nice to have some empty space so a mod developer could play with console commands;
- the player starts facing the wall for some reason.

In total: while this map can be helpful for some mod developers in the current state, some alterations may help it become more useful. For myself, I continue using Kinsie's Gameplay Mod Test Map for now.

It takes a long time to do things with this map (moving monsters, adding/removing things, etc). Also, this is to test vanilla gameplay and weapon statistics.
