eDoomTC and my map converter

User is offline   m210® 

#1

Hi all! Did you remember my DoomTC? :thumbsup: At last month I worked on map converter from Doom wad files to Duke3D and now I can said, that I completed work on this converter! My converter can make doom's maps almost without editing in mapster32, because my program also converting doors and another doom effects as lights etc. All converted map of Doom, Doom2, Doom2Plutonia and Doom2TNT I put it to my old DoomTC and you can play those maps too :) My converted understand Doom/Doom2 wad files and also Heretic wads and Hexen wads (geometry only, without textures) So, new eDoomTC includes 132 playable maps, launcher like as BloodCM launcher. Enemies was "almost" disabled, therefore this is a "turist" mod :(

I don't know, will this mod is interested to somebody, therefore I don't want to continue this mod. But anyway, this is a mod with 132 maps ;)

eDoomTC

So, I released this, and I can continue works with BloodCM now :D

I don't know nothing about doom's 3d floors therefore - no, converter doesn't supported it, classic maps only

I thinking so too xD But my Java programming learning give me an idea for write converter :thumbsup: It was very hard, because doom has a lot of unclosed sectors and a lot of "f@cking" sectors :)

I'm sure that many users, as myself, are interested in this mod.
I hope you will continue working on it.

That should explain pretty much all of it

Edit: Just to add to the video, each line on the control sector can have the 3D floor action applied to it, to use the same 3D floor for multiple sectors.

I decided to give a little boost to the project. If you wants recreate the exact atmosphere, despite all, this fix will add the DOOM, DOOM II, Plutonia and TNT music, plus it adds all the map names. (Plutonia soundtrack comes from the unofficial MIDI Pack https://www.doomworl...i-pack-project/)

http://www.filedropp...ommusicmapnames

Just put the "Music" folder into "Data" and replace the User.con in \Data\cons

I also converted the two exclusive Xbox maps.

http://s000.tinyuplo...957107037427898

Btw, it is possible add "No Rest For The Living" to conversion options? Obviously for the purpose to add it as an episode.

Probably, or at least a different assets of the standard ones since I already tried to convert it using the DOOM II option and some textures were misplaced or incorrect. I will send a PM to you about it.

There is a new converter with textures list.
Syntax:
1. TEXTURE format: DOOM, DOOM2, PLUTONIA, TNT, HERETIC, HEXEN

2. FLAT TEXTURES CHUNK[TILEOFFSET]
{
DOOMTEXTURENAME TILENUM - TILEOFFSET
}

3. WALLTEXTURES CHUNK[TILEOFFSET]
{
DOOMTEXTURENAME TILENUM - TILEOFFSET
}
4. SPRITE CHUNK[TILEOFFSET]
{
DOOMTYPE: TILENUM - TILEOFFSET cstat: # lotag: # hitag: # z: #
}

z - is a offset from ceilingZ coordinate

Textures format is a WAD file format. This option for different skies on maps (DOOM has a 4 skies, DOOM2 - has a 3 skies)
PLUTONIA works as DOOM2, TNT has a some long textures, with that format converter calc offsets for this textures

I will literally pay you $100 USD to get this supporting UDMF (ZDoom) format maps and the added features that come with it. Not even joking.

Yeah, is it. And Im not sure, can I convert such 3D floor to eDukes TROR, but I will work under it.

Today I completed Wad2Art converter and We can convert wad maps with textures :D
Wad2Art converter making ART files with converted tiles to own palette file (for example Duke Nukem 3D palette) or without convert tiles and with making palette from wad file.
Also Wad2Art making textures list for Wad2Map converter.

I attached a example with Hexen's MAP08 with textures (converted to Duke3D palette), but without sprites yet.

So does it support UDMF maps?

3D floors to TROR might be a bit tricky but should be possible. E.g if you have some space below and above a 3D floor, just copy the whole thing, make the ceilings of the lower area flat, the same height, and lower it down. Then for the upper area make all the floors flat, the same height, and raise them up. Then add whatever information that mapster uses to know they're joined. I can see why it might not be worth the time invested though.

Yes, my converter support UDMF now and slope surfaces.
3D floors to TROR is possible if you are human, but for converter it's imposible :D Because neighboring sectors may be broken (slope surfaces exactly)

I tried make a TROR near 3D floor sectors, and I got almost a successful result, but walls of TROR are rendering with black textures, ROR texture also didn't got render skipping for thoose walls and player has clipping with it. I think, it will be possible, if walls with ROR textures will skipping by renderer and not clippable for objects.

Or second case, just make system as ZDoom :blink:

Yeah looks like it's trying to do wall over wall in addition to room over room. The process I described earlier would theoretically work as the full area surrounding the platform would be extended. But I'm sure it's almost impossible to code so that it works universally, automatically and glitch free.

In any case the user could just add the TROR in afterward. And there's plenty of cool level design you can do without TROR.
