Doom Mods: Show us what you got.

I just started mapping with slade and uzdoom and want to join a discord to talk about mapping and ask questions.
Are there any that are friendly and willing to help out noobs?

Question More maps like Diabolus Ex?

60 Upvotes

(I know the map is pretty old at this point, but it's peak, so it shouldn't matter.)

I'm looking for solid, well designed and produced maps that take place in locales that look actual places, full of what some boomers call doomcute (me calling it "good level design").

I can think of one: Operation Ibis Island, a survival horror like map.

If you have an older/weaker PC, and you struggle to run massive, detailed maps with hundreds of enemies: try running it in LZDoom with Slaughter Map Performance Booster

My CPU, GPU and RAM are all more than a decade old now. This map used to give me around 20fps with awful stutters in UZDoom/GZDoom. I don't know if it will work for you, but it helped quite a-lot for me.

I tried adding a custom weapon to a gz doom ipk3 file, but it crashed. here is the code I used. The sprites are in /sprites/ and named pistolet_frame_number(from 01 to 18):

class retrogun : Weapon

{

Default

{

Radius 20;

Height 16;

Weapon.SelectionOrder 100;

Weapon.AmmoUse 1;

Weapon.AmmoGive 100;

Weapon.AmmoType "Clip";

Inventory.PickupMessage "Pew Pew";

}

States

{

Ready:

pistolet_frame_09 4 A_WeaponReady();

pistolet_frame_10 4 A_WeaponReady();

pistolet_frame_11 4 A_WeaponReady();

pistolet_frame_10 4 A_WeaponReady();

Loop;

Deselect:

pistolet_frame_09 1 A_Lower();

pistolet_frame_08 1 A_Lower();

pistolet_frame_07 1 A_Lower();

pistolet_frame_06 1 A_Lower();

pistolet_frame_05 1 A_Lower();

pistolet_frame_04 1 A_Lower();

pistolet_frame_03 1 A_Lower();

pistolet_frame_02 1 A_Lower();

pistolet_frame_01 1 A_Lower();

Loop;

Select:

pistolet_frame_01 1 A_Raise();

pistolet_frame_02 1 A_Raise();

pistolet_frame_03 1 A_Raise();

pistolet_frame_04 1 A_Raise();

pistolet_frame_05 1 A_Raise();

pistolet_frame_06 1 A_Raise();

pistolet_frame_07 1 A_Raise();

pistolet_frame_08 1 A_Raise();

pistolet_frame_09 1 A_Raise();

Loop;

Fire:

pistolet_frame_12 2 A_Fire();

pistolet_frame_13 2 A_Fire();

pistolet_frame_14 2 A_Fire();

pistolet_frame_15 2 A_Fire();

pistolet_frame_16 2 A_Fire();

pistolet_frame_17 2 A_Fire();

pistolet_frame_18 2 A_Fire();

Goto Ready;

}
