Map03 and Map26 [Archive] - New Doom Forums

Ok map03 is up for grabs since Torn went missing. Whoever says they want it first can have the slot and please only take it if you can make a level within a few months. If nobody wants it, then I'll tackle the bugger myself.

map26 is still up in the air and I'm waiting for Agent Spork to answer a PM I just sent him.

By the way, what happened to Nuxius? He was last on here on November 16th, 2004 01:58 PM. That's not good. :(

edit: Oh, this is Nuxius BTW. :)

I've been trying to get in here for a while now.

For some reason, when I visited the forum last December, I had noticed it logged me out for some reason. So I tried to log in, but it wouldn't accept my password (matched my notes, but who knows, I could have screwed up somewhere). So I clicked the lost password link for it to send me a e-mail, but after about 30 minutes, it still hadn't sent me a email. So I tried it again, and after an hour this time, still no email. So I figured maybe it was a daily thing, but I was going on vacation the next day, so I'd just worry about it when I get back.

Well, tried it again today, and still no go. So I tried using the "conact us" link at the bottom, but the email bounced back to me. I took the .nospam part out, thinking it was there so spambots wouldn't grab the email off the page, should I have left it in?

And obviously I can't use any of the email links to email members, since they only work if you're logged in.

So as a last attempt, I'd figured I try to create a new account, to see if that would work. Bam, sent me a email right away. But it still won't send a email for my Nuxius account (I tried it again after I got the email verification for this account).

Also, just to make sure it wasn't my other email account, I sent an email to it, and it got there, no problems at all. So it isn't anything on my end.

Ooh I see Uystogic. Ummm so which account do you want to keep and with what email? (lemme know in a PM). Anyheep hows the map coming along?

Hokay DoomedAce, if your sure about that. ;)

Welp, since I know that no one else will finish their maps, I will takes slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and maybe 15. We can outsource the rest of the maps to India ;)

Doom_Dude

January 7th, 2005, 06:23 PM

Hahahahaha. That would turn this into the Swampy Megawad? ;)

Aliotroph?

January 7th, 2005, 07:56 PM

Well, considering that I've played through 2, 10, and 15 just today... :p

January 7th, 2005, 08:14 PM

Nope, they are to be redone from scratch. I was planning on using my DooM: Enema (tm) engine, which has been secretly withheld until now.

Uystogic

January 8th, 2005, 07:11 AM

Actually, India's already finished their maps, you can download them here. (http://www.doomworld.com/mockery/) Have fun. :p

(bad experience with outsourced tech support will do this to you)

Anyway, I'll send you a PM, Doom Dude.

Aliotroph?

January 8th, 2005, 01:07 PM

How'd you make that link jobby that doesn't do anything?

Uystogic

January 8th, 2005, 11:29 PM

Hmmm, interesting... all I did was the

Click here (http://www.blah.com/blah.html)

Does that not work here?

Strange, put code in code tags and the code works.. when it shouldn't... otherwise what would be the use a the code tag? Stupid vB.

Anyway, I got the first one working now. Not that it matters.... :p

Aliotroph?

January 9th, 2005, 01:43 AM

The point of code tags is to format text so it's readable. People here usually use it for HTML and C examples.

The previous link you had didn't do anything except hilight though. That was just weird

Thought I'd put up some screens of Map03.

I think I'm going to call it something along the lines of "Underground Waterway"

PumpkinSmasher

January 10th, 2005, 12:47 PM

Its looking good. Kind of an underhalls theme.

DoomedAce

January 10th, 2005, 06:11 PM

Yeah, I kind of had that map pictured in my mind when I was mapping *guilty*

The area in the middle shot is actually the equivalent of the side passage in Underhalls where you get the SSG. Only this time the passage makes a loop and has this area in the middle. Even the SSG is there. It's going to be behind the fence. Expect it to be properly guarded this time :)

Doom_Dude

January 10th, 2005, 07:41 PM

Looks cool DoomedAce. I also like the Underhalls theme you have going on in the screens. :D

Aliotroph?

January 10th, 2005, 09:55 PM

Wow, sweet! :D

PumpkinSmasher

January 11th, 2005, 11:48 AM

I hope its a lot bigger and harder than the original underhalls.

Doom_Dude

January 15th, 2005, 06:54 PM

I hope its a lot bigger and harder than the original underhalls. Yeah he's gonna kill us all in that thing. *cool*

DoomedAce

January 16th, 2005, 05:27 PM

Hmm... I need some more inspiration. That Underhalls theme is cool, but flooded tunnels alone might become a bit boring after a while. I'll have to throw in some other elements as well.

PumpkinSmasher

January 16th, 2005, 06:45 PM

How about some nukage or lava in those tunnels. You could make it a nuclear power plant where you need water to cool the radioactive elements, or something.

DoomedAce

January 17th, 2005, 06:57 AM

Some nukage is already in. The level is going to be in a water cleaning facility, so naturally there's an area where the poluted water is stored.

There are also floodgates that can be opened or closed, allowing the player to control the water level in some places.

Control room, both gates closed:

Control room, red gate open:

BTW, the pool in the middle of that room a way to see in what area of the level the water is down.

These look great, DoomedAce

DoomedAce

January 24th, 2005, 03:56 PM

Heh, well thanks to Mystic's color lights (at least I think they are his) I've been able to mark the switches that lower or raise water throughout the level. That'll make it easier for the player to see which switches are interconnected. So far there's a blue, red and green pair.

PumpkinSmasher

sounds exciting, can't wait to play the map DoomedAce

Doom_Dude

February 6th, 2005, 02:35 PM

Looks great DoomedAce.

Does anybody want map26? I can't get ahold of Agent Spork. :/ If not then I'll reinstate my Lavaplant map into the NDCP.

Aliotroph?

February 6th, 2005, 06:54 PM

I'd take it if I wasn't in danger of being thrown out of school. :p

PumpkinSmasher

February 7th, 2005, 05:12 PM

Life is way too busy at the moment to start any more maps. I'm struggling to find time to work on Zephyr.

*re-inserts Lavaplant in NDCP using teh map 26 slot*

PumpkinSmasher

February 11th, 2005, 01:11 PM

sounds good DD

Doom_Dude

February 11th, 2005, 01:57 PM

id rather not do map 26 as I don't have much time but nobody else is interested. I wish Spork would just finish his map but he doesn't answer my PM messages. gah.

By the way has anybody heard from -Ki- or talk to her on some messenger? Id like to know how her map is coming along.

Lutrov71

February 11th, 2005, 03:13 PM

Send Spork an e-mail.

Doom_Dude

February 11th, 2005, 07:15 PM

I don't know what his email adress is anymore. I posted in his latest wad dealie on WIP... maybe he'll notice that.

[edit] He did notice that message and says he intends to finish.

*puts Spork back in lineup*

EDIT: Also look at the crappy review he wrote of my map. Thematic Elements. Only he wrote Thematic Events. :D

He used to have 2 reviews up for my maps. :(

DoomedAce

May 16th, 2005, 06:57 AM

I finished building Map03 today, so that only leaves Thing placement and de-bugging to be done. Now ain't that good news?

Heh, someone got a kick in the butt after I finished my map.

Looking mighty good there. :)

Peer pressure is a powerful form of motivation *smirk*
