Just went through all of Romero's Twitter posts and I thought this was pretty badarse.

That animation is nothing new, it was in one of the Doom alphas

[Malgon]

Cool, I'll have to check them out someday, as I've only seen bits and pieces from them.

[TheZombieKiller]

Be sure to grab a copy of Slade3 so you can look through the WAD files, as there is a lot of content that's in the data, but isn't used (the demon "exploding" animation, for example)

Not sure if many know but there was a cut level for Final Doom on the PS1 as well:

The map was a homage to Map 14 of Doom 2 but ultimately didn't make the cut for the Master Levels on PC which was probably why it was removed from the PS1 version too.

So initially they used the original PC version art then?

I'm guessing they used art from Atari Jaguar port

Apparently Double Fine are doing a 'Devs Play' whereby they'll be playing a few games alongside the original developers, with the first one being The Lion King. What does this have to do with Doom? Well on January 20 they'll be doing a playthrough of Doom with John Romero! Keep that one marked down in your calendar if you're interested in developer commentary playthroughs.

Edit: Link to the original article.

Romero actually bought the piece of art that Fox posted.

[Malgon]

That would be a pretty awesome feeling for the artist to have Romero buy your piece of art. It is extremely well done imo.

That really doesn't surprise me at all. It's bad-ass, he can afford it, and it's a tribute to something he created. I don't think very many people in his shoes wouldn't have purchased it.

Ah, found the pictures: https://twitter.com/...742255608803328

The hell are the Quake 2 weapons doing in the HUD?

And apparently a Time Crisis/House Of The Dead-style "health/lives" system.

i find a Doom mod that had some stuff from Duke Nukem in it. to my surprise, someone actually used the CyberKeef from Total Meltdown in the Doom mod

[Bloodshot]

Not really sure where to post this since I don't think i should make a thread for it, gonna try here because it's ID related in the sense that it's the quake engine.

got access to the trenchbroom 2.0 beta which supports Hexen 2 so I started making some stuff for it.







It's a shame Hexen 2 is stuck with older convoluted editors, it's a really fun base for content and I would've liked to see more custom maps for it.

The only editor I know of that supports it is QuArK, and that thing has barely changed since the 90s. Making the above cave took me like 15 minutes, in QuArK it probably would've taken me an hour or so

[Daedolon]

Hexen 2 is one of the few games I'd absolutely love to build maps for, I just don't know where to start, any suggestions?

[Lunick]

I'm not a Hexen 2 fan but I want that.

Well I'm using trenchbroom 2.0, but that's a private beta, so either you can email the guy to try and get access like i did (kristian.duske@gmail.com, got it from func_msgboard)

or you can set up hammer for it and use the 220 map converter

http://www.ogier-editor.com/mapconv/

^ i don't use hammer for it but it also works as a GUI compiler so you don't have to use the cmdline since trenchbroom doesn't have its own compiling console yet.

[Daedolon]

Does it have the support out of the box?

[Bloodshot]

Yep, that's the whole reason I emailed the guy. TB 2.0 natively supports it.

EDIT:

WIP entrance to this mine/cave thing im making

[MusicallyInspired]

That style reminds me a lot of the first couple levels of Klingon Honor Guard. Nostalgia...

[Malgon]

The playthrough of "Knee Deep in the Dead" is split into 8 parts in case any of you are wondering.

[HulkNukem]

Such a fun playthrough. Walking videos like these about Doom is fun to hear about how stuff was made. People tend to try to breakdown what makes certain things fun and yet the secret to Doom's development was simply building it as you go.

[Duke of Hazzard]

My biggest disappointment with Doom was that I reached the end (on the SNES!) and, instead of Satan, I had to fight the Spider Mastermind, which died with just a few BFG blasts. I really thought the final boss of Doom would be Satan himself. It sorta is in Doom 2...

Doom 64 is probably the closest to Hell I've ever experienced, though. Some of the levels were REALLY atmospheric. The port I played was Absolution back in the day, which ran on the Doomsday engine, and I remember some of the secret levels made me feel like I was having an acid trip or something.

There's no ads on those videos if thats what youre implying..........

He just doesn't like Tim Schafer's games.

[Rellik]

Was that before of after TS outed himself as a "SJW"?

Either way, I don't care. Both Psychonauts and Brütal Legend are awesome.
