By the way I emailed Lut and I emailed FACE. The FACE email bounced back because the addy that I have is dead so I ended up trying a PM to get his attention. Meh.

[FATAL]

Yea, that looks fine, but you could call my map as "Outpost of Hell"

...Praise my imagination!

[Doom_Dude]

Done.

I emailed and PM's anybody who's not done.... or at least most of them to see what's going on..

[Exl]

Is there also a place where all the wads that are finished can be downloaded?

[Doom_Dude]

When I get all the linkse from Sparky I can update the downloads page..
http://megawad.newdoom.com/ndcp6.shtml
Actually, now that I think of it you can just change the map # in the url and get the download. I'll fix up the page later. Everything is still passworded.

I did some work to my map this morning. :D Addding more details to the existing structures.

[Sparky]

ill give you links latere today DD
i need check all the new maps that i got for the password

If FACE doesnt reply, hes gone
he seems to be the only one that hasent shown any interest in this or Newdoom infact since he doesnt do the news page anymore... i guess "real life" has got him by the balls
atleast we got in contact with LuT.

but they are not the only people that we havent heard from....

Archvile46
Derek
Aliotroph?
Mystic
Kaiser
Agent Spork
X-Doom

thats almost everyone still doing maps
mystic is another one i am thinking about kicking
we havent seen him post hardly at all for awhile now
as for the otthers, the have been posting. we just havent heard from them about NDCP

So, What Do You Guys Think? Is It Then End For FACE And Mystic?*bug*

[Doom_Dude]

I have everybody who hasn't finished either emailed and PM'd.

Face and Lut will be goners if they don't answer soon. I emailed them multiple times, tried various emails and I get no word from them---- and I'm getting very annoyed. If they don't answer by next Friday then they are goners methinks. I tried so many times over the past year (or so) to get ahold of both these guys and all I did was waste my time. Bleagh.

I don't want to kick Mystic because an olde email he sent me (I went through all my NDCP emails) and he said his map was 99% done. So if I can get ahold of him I might be able to get him to finish.

Kaiser answered my PM. He said he dropped out awhile ago. So map31 is free.

Aliotroph? said he's near finishing map10. He said he doesn't mind giving up map19. I asked Karthik if he wanted to do map19 in an email. Haven't heard back yet.

Agent Spork said he's 15% done. But he said something about using Boom features.... I think he got mixed up with CC2. I don't remember us saying you could use Boom features,. :/

Frades says he's almost done map04.

X-Doom replied to a PM and said.... well I'm not sure if he said he was almost done or what. :p

I still have to hear back from Archvile46, ReX, Mystic, Lut, FACE and Derek.

Also Paul has a start on his 2nd map. Just heard from him this morning. ;)

About maps that become free slots.... I think we shouldn't allow anybody to do a 2nd map unless they are already finished thier 1st map. I think it was a mistake letting people tie up 2 and 3 slots at once. Oh well, thats the way it goes. One way or anouther this project will get done. :D

[-Ki-]

These basic doom2 maps? I may be intrusted in making one. If any others get freed up..

[Doom_Dude]

These basic doom2 maps? I may be intrusted in making one. If any others get freed up..

Yes basic Doom II. We're not making it for any specific port but a limit removing port will be recommended for playing once its finished so you don't have to worry about your map being compatible with doom2.exe. You can have the map31 slot if you want it -Ki-

[edit] I just got email back from Mystic. He says he just got back into Doom editing and will finish his map by the end of summer. :)

[-Ki-]

Hmm.. I think I'll wait to see if any of the other maps become open if any others will be. If not then sure I'll take 31.

are there any themes or such for the maps or we just make whatever we want, or dose it have to follow what the maps like on doom2?

[Doom_Dude]

If Karthik can't do map19 maybe you can do that one. I'm also sure other map slots will become free soon so your chances of getting a slot are good. Were not following any theme so it's do whatever you want.

[-Ki-]

Any custom textures allowed or just the ones in doom?

This sounds like fun :) I may even sdo more then one if thats allowed.. (if I finish one and theres still slots open that is)

[Doom_Dude]

Custom textures are allowed as long as they're no ripped from any commercial game including TNT and Plutonia.. Send any customs to me if you have any you want to use so I can add em to the resource wad. Theres also a downloadable texture wad. I'll send you a PM with the pass if and when you get assigned a map slot.

[-Ki-]

You don't got to worry about any of that, I make all my own textures if I'm going to use custom. I hate useing stuff you see 100's of times in other wads. It just gets so stail after a while.

[iori]

I guess I could take another slot, Im almost done my Community Chest2 map, and I have that weird queezy feeling every time I open DN at the moment, so why not another map for this, huh? If there is a slot above map 15 (I really am tired of tech now) I'd be glad to take it ;).

[Exl]

Yay, adding another year to the duration of this :)

Cool. I find it weird that most Doom mappers don't use any custom textures. I don't mind using the olde ones but using em alongside custom ones rules.

Well -Ki- doesn't want map 31, do you mr iori want the dreaded map 31 slot?
Yay, adding another year to the duration of this :)

I'm doing my best. :/

[iori]

The massive 5 year project...

//EDIT

If map31 doesnt have to be a goofy pointless level, then yes ;). I dont want to use the SS soldiers or the wolf textures. If that's alright, then great. I'm going to name it now I guess.. "Sacrificium"

[Doom_Dude]

Posted at same time....

[Sparky]

this sounds good
november 11th of almost 2 years ago was when i started the thread about this. so nov 11th this yera will make it 2 years old

Doesnt LuT post at DW? and archvile64? i was thinking if you havent already tried that, get in touch that way
lut has repleyed a few months ago remember? we can give him more time. FACE is hanging on very thin. id say we kick him out now

and for the links, there the same as teh others just different map## ill check the zips for passwords
and if people dont want to do there map, pls drop there slot now so other people dont have to wait for you to do so

it just speeds this up so maybe we can get it done this year :)

[Doom_Dude]

I got an email address off of Lut on DW a month ago when I just happened to notice him posting and I just used it the other day. He posts rarely that I can see and PMing him on DW isn't an option since he has it disabled.

I haven't seen archvile64 post anywheres in a long time. I emailed him yesterday along with all the others. I think we can wait a few days at least to see if the people I emailed will answer or not. If they don't answer by Friday or Saturday then bye bye.

By the way iori got the map 31 slot and -ki- can have the map19 slot if she wants it. Karthik answered my email just now and won't be able to do it.

[-Ki-]

So I can have map 19? Hmm. Okay that sounds good :) Okay I'll nap 19 then. Now to just think up a theme and layout ^.^

[Doom_Dude]

Cool. I got the map names updated. Now to do a wee update on the site. :D

[-Ki-]

So you said theres a texture pack or something? And what do I do if theres textures I want to add to the level I make?

[Doom_Dude]

Yeah theres a texture wad on this page.
http://megawad.newdoom.com/ndcp6.shtml

I'll send you the password for unzipping it. You can merge your textures into it and use that for your own use and just send me the bitmaps of your textures so I can update the resource wad and upload it.

[Sparky]

Ki, make sure these new textures or flats you make dont overight any in doom2.wad

[Doom_Dude]

Sparky I heard back from ReX and he's going to get back to his 2nd map when he comes back from vacation.

[PumpkinSmasher]

so how many maps do we have finished now?

[-Ki-]

I never make any of my own textures overright any in doom2.

I was told that I could just add the textures to my map, then when it's done it can be merged or.. something? I'm not fully sure how to do this.. Cause if you add the textures to the resorce wad, it wont add in the walls I make with them if I have more then one texture placed on a wall.

[ReX]

Hello, folks. The rumors of my early termination have been grossly exaggerated. I'm currently on vacation, as the good Darren Finch has informed you, and I'll get back to Map24 when I get back.

I had started a map (and done about 15%), which I tentatively named La Casa del Diablo, and I was planning to submit that for the NDCP project. If I dont send that one in I'll do another one.

[Doom_Dude]

I never make any of my own textures overright any in doom2.No problemo and no hurry.I was told that I could just add the textures to my map, then when it's done it can be merged or.. something? I'm not fully sure how to do this..You can add them to the resource wad or send them to me and I'll do it for you. Cause if you add the textures to the resorce wad, it wont add in the walls I make with them if I have more then one texture placed on a wall. Are you talking about making new textures from existing patches? I've never used that method and I don't really know anything about it and have kept away from that doing that myself as I see it as confusing.

I had started a map (and done about 15%), which I tentatively named La Casa del Diablo, and I was planning to submit that for the NDCP project. If I dont send that one in I'll do another one. Hi ReX. Good to know your gonna keep on making that map. :)

[-Ki-]

I mean how a lot of textures are placed.. you can have a full wall texture, then maybe a smaller one (like a vent for example) and rather then adding in a new texture with them both together, you can just make a wall in wintex with one texture over the other. it wont add it as a texture but it's a useable one in an editor..

or if I wanted to add a small pannle to an existing wall texture.. I could just add in just the pannle texture, then apply it to any existing wall texture.

thats just how I add smaller textures to normal walls.. it saves file size doing it that way then making a full sized wall tecture with the added stuff.

[Ninja_of_DooM]

Are there any free slots for maps 21-29? I'd like to have another go adn I'm itching tomake a Hell themed map.:)

Yeah I understand the concept of doing that but it's something I've never figured out. I also never liked using wintex so I dunno what to tell you.

[-Ki-]

O.o It's extreamly easy to do. And I rather use wintex, as I've never been able to find away to add textures in anything else with out doom builder or in game complaning about missing files or unable to find something.

Sucks :/ Guess this means I wont be adding any of my own made textures.. I'll have to scrap the idea for this one room as none of the existing textures will really work or make it look how I planed.

Id rather use XWE for the same reason that nothing else ever worked for me in getting custom textures and flats into a map without there being a bunch of trouble.

Sucks :/ Guess this means I wont be adding any of my own made textures.. I'll have to scrap the idea for this one room as none of the existing textures will really work or make it look how I planed. For that room can't you make new textures instead of using that patch method? A few custom modded Doom textures isn't going to over-bloat out resource wad.

[PumpkinSmasher]

Can't she just add the textures to the resource WAD himself with the patches she likes, and then send you the the resource wad back with her textures included.

[Ninja_of_DooM]

*ahem*

[-Ki-]

Pumpkin.. I have said this before.. I'M A GIRL!! As hard as it is to beleave I'm a darn female >.<

[PumpkinSmasher]

Sorry about that, I edited my post for you. Glad to see more female Doomer's.

[Doom_Dude]

Can't she just add the textures to the resource WAD himself with the patches she likes, and then send you the the resource wad back with her textures included.

Yes of course. If that's what -Ki- wants to do then go for it.

[-Ki-]

Hmm.. well in that case sure. That'll work fine.

[Doom_Dude]

Ok cool. Glad thats sorted. :D

Now I have to sort out the website and get that up to par.

Just updated the map names just now. Added Rex's La Casa del Diablo title and switched iori to map17.

[-Ki-]

Hmm.. this reminds me.. I got NO clue what to name my map o.o;;;

[PumpkinSmasher]

Don't worry about naming it yet. I didn't figure out a name for mine until it was almost finished.

[Mystic]

let me know when the texture wad is updated please, just in case I fancy some of the new ones on my map15.

Oh, a nice name for my map15 is 'city of lost souls'

DD I cant remember the ndcp password, could you pm or email it to me please?

I think with a little effort we could get this thing finished by autumn, maybe thats my overly optimistic side talking.

[-Ki-]

What stye map is you'res like?

[Mystic]

I am doing two, map02 (finished) is a tech style one with a lot of shiny new textures, map15 is an urban style level using lots of new textures too, all the textures are already in the NDCP resource wad. get your slot sorted and you can grab copies of them, map02 is available already on the NDCP site, map15 I can provide a link to the latest version (not for sharing with non-NDCP folk)

[iori]

Non-NDCP folk cant see the maps without the password, they should be PW'd just like the resource wad.

[Mystic]

I know but I cant be arsed adding a password to my zips
(blushing icon)

[PumpkinSmasher]

Are you seriously that lazy mystic it only takes about 5 seconds.

[Mystic]

well, yes, I am that lazy with some things, I forget how to add passwords, so I have to type pkzip to see all the damn options and find out, then make a few typos, blah blah, thats a few minutes when I could have been doing something useful like looking at pics of naked girls or something. Then I have to upload the damn thing, make a link page to it, make it all look nice. Theres no end to it. Hmm, I will try to be less lazy but Im not making any promises.

[PumpkinSmasher]

when I could have been doing something useful like looking at pics of naked girls or something.

ROFL

[Ninja_of_DooM]

Or admiring my new wad (http://wip.paci-fist.org/?a=listwads&wad=272) on WIP.:p

[Doom_Dude]

Ninja thats the olde URL. :p

[Ninja_of_DooM]

Cheeky bugger. That's the new one. Check it again and see for yourself.:p

[iori]

http://wip.paci-fist.org/?a=listwads&wad=272

..this is the old one, the one in your link.

http://www.wadsinprogress.info/?a=listwads&wad=272

new one ;).

[Ninja_of_DooM]

Those links take me to the new one. Funny.*bug*

[MasterOfPuppets]

i just started on my map (no name for it yet), and i was wondering what we are doing about music.

[-Ki-]

I was thinking of posting the map I'm doing on WIP. but dunno if I should..

[ReX]

I was thinking of posting the map I'm doing on WIP. but dunno if I should.. You have nothing to lose by posting. On the contrary, you could get some publicity for your map and the project.

[Mystic]

hmm, what is wip?? can anyone join? or is it run by doomworld types?

[MasterOfPuppets]

WIP = Wads In Progress link (http://wadsinprogress.info/index.php)

Boris the the admin, though i think there are a few moderators, such as Cyb.

[Mystic]

Boris is cool, dunno if I can be arsed though, I mostly like to use surprise tactics with my new maps. Im only letting folk try that big egyptian one to see if it works ok, no feedback yet so I guess its ok
