However, in 3D mode, it looks completely fine. Any fixes?

Also Happy New year Doomers :3

Edit: It is possible, at least for Nugget Doom, file attached below...

Edit: I just realised that I've already made a post about this post. Sorry about that, I just have a weak signal from where I live and I can't see my other same post and also this one. So I cannot delete this post rn until it shows up in my profile.

I assume I'll need to script this, but I have very limited scripting knowledge. Only ever copied a few ACS scripts so help is very much appreciated

I'm so puzzled and weirded out because I took all this time to carefully align my textures.. Do I have to go back to Gzdoom and align all the textures there or will that mess things up on the DSDA doom end? I'm feeling so confused and bummed..

Extra info: The textures appear misaligned when I go ingame using Gzdoom, however when looking around in the the editor using Gzdoom, they appear to be fine all of a sudden  (just like in DSDA doom), even more confused now..

I would like to ask if there is a chance that the GZDoom startup name can be changed? I have noticed it can be done in a lot of other wads, so I figured why can't I change it for my own wad?

If anyone knows how to achieve this.

Thanks!

It might have slightly less DPS than the Rocket Launcher, but it takes just 2 shells to fire. The Shotgun Guy, drops 4 shells.

Unless the encounter is really tight and punishes the SSG's long reload animation, the weapon choice is pretty obvious.

And even then, the SSG's older brother is punished even more in those kinds of scenarios.

To fire the regular shotgun, you need press 3, wait for the raise state of the SSG to finish, press 3 again, wait for the raise state to finish AND THEN fire.

How do you guys balance your maps and encounters around the SSG?

How can I make the shotgun useful, besides post encounter cleanup?

How can I make the player's choices around weapons less obvious and more varied throughout an encounter?

I have a question regarding map changes; I have succeeded in changing the map name in WhackEd4 and it shows correctly on the intermission screen but while viewing the automap it still remains unchanged from the level that I changed. When I did my first map it changed both, but for the life of me I cannot remember what I did.

Does anyone of you fine people know how to change the name in the automap so it displays it correctly? I would be very thankful.

Cheers!

P.s. I took a lot of stuff from other WADs and Realm667 but, since I will just show it to someone who doesn't know anything about Doom, I didn't put credits to them (I will just say that I took some stuff from the Internet). Also, after a while, I started messing around, so I added some stuff that only spawns on Nightmare difficulty. 

Casa.rar

and im wondering if i could do the thing that many dwango wads did and thats heavily modding some of the doom 2 levels to make them still look like modifications but arent the straight up original levels

so moral of the story: Will it be Illegal/Redistribution if i mod tf out of a doom 2 level and publish it for free without id's permission?

But this just doesn't want to work. It sometimes just uses the Hearts (this SHOULD be enabled for ONLY the on option) for another option even when it is toggled off.

The on option doesn't even seem to work, it just uses the same sprites as the on option. I need help. PLEASE.

Here's a video showcasing the scripts, and the weird bug: https://1drv.ms/v/s!AoWCowdleidri4MYEe7-0bdETbInpg?e=sxiqsV

Could anyone please help me find the source of these textures? I found them in Jaska's lost civilization, but they aren't sure where they got them from (and I don't think Jaska made them either)

How to use it:

1. Go to the tool's website

2. Choose your vanilla/boom WAD file

3. Select the map you want to convert to UDMF

4. Press "Convert"

5. Download the WAD file with your converted UDMF map ;)

Long story short: if I use a midi version of a well-known copyrighted song in my map and someone decides to play it on stream, will they get copyright striked for it?

The reason I'm asking is because I remember reading somewhere that midis are in the same camp as remixes since they are technically rearragments of the original song. That being said, I've also heard that on modern streaming platforms it's possible to get a copyright strike if you simply sing the song yourself or even just hum it, depending on the song itself.

In other words, how bad would it be in terms of streaming to pack the wad's OST chok full of famous midis?

I know it's bold to assume my map would be streamed in the first place, but this is the type of question that I would like to settle for myself for good.

I can't even fucking add barney's head to the game, just click on the damn link.

seeing as how deepsea is now free, i figured that it may be fun to use it to map on an old win98 machine that i have. however, there's one small problem: the current deepsea version only works on win7 and above, and the last versions that do work on windows 98 (before 12.15) are uh...rather hard to find. the only copies out there seem to be both unregistered and on rather sketchy-looking websites, and when i asked the author of deepsea as to whether or not he could give me one, he said that the only copies he had of it are on a dead computer.

so, that's just fantastic.

thus, in the name of preservation (and having fun in windows 98!), i'm reaching out to everyone here in an attempt to find a registered copy of these specific versions. it's freeware now, so there's no need to gasp in horror or anything because i'm asking this, heh.

I am currently learning how to make pk3 files in SLADE3 for a map I am working on.  I was able to make the basic format of the file, merge in a texture pack I like, and a WAD I had made.  So far so good...  loading the map I saw some yellow text, but ultimately didn't seem to do anything.  The map works perfectly fine, the textures are merged in, but I am concerned about the errors when booting.  Heres a screenshot i attempted to capture before the box went away, sorry for the blurriness...

Invalid data encountered for texture (map name).pk3:textures/pp_end

Invalid data encountered for texture (map name).pk3:textures/pp_start

I immediately recognized these lines as markers in Slade.

When I imported the gothic texture pack, I have the first 2 folders in slade as flats then textures.

Within the wad file for the gothic texture pack, the creator used these markers to separate the textures and flats, so they were copied over when doing the merge.

i then just took the other bits from the texturepack wad and put below my textures folder, then drag and dropped my map wad below that...

Out of curiosity I figured, if markers in the folder were causing the error and markers essentially do nothing, just delete them.

I tried this out and now the map loads just fine without error.  Since playability / texture loading was never seemingly affected by the error in the first place, I guess im trying to understand why it happened on a more technical level just to broaden my own knowledge.

The files are structured as follows:

top level

top of flats folder with ff start map marker

bottom of flats folder f_end

textures folder with no markers

Now prior to deleting the markers in the textures folder the appeared at the top and the bottom of the textures with names pp_start & pp_end.

if those markers caused these errors, why are the markers in the flats folder not doing the same?

Im curious as to if anyone may know the more technical reason for this to happen?

It was previously "GZDoom2 Doom Format" when i made it and now I want to make it "GZDOOM2 UDMF" for access to the script icon in the top left

The other day, around 9:00 p.m., there was a power outage throughout the building while I was editing a map, luckily I had saved the progress a little earlier. The next day when I wanted to continue editing the map I could no longer open it because it did not exist, it was deleted. He was saved without problems before the light fell, how is that possible? I opened the wad in Slade3 to see if there was anything inside and the only thing I found was a total of 78 Marker, nothing more. Luckily, I was able to recover the map by searching the forums for a solution. But it doesn't all end there nononono. In Ultimate Doom Builder all the changes I had made in it have been lost (Preferences, Game configurations, Linedef presets, Things filters, etc.). As if I had installed it for the first time.
Does anyone have an idea how this could have happened? Or have I been a victim of some type of witchcraft?

Thanks!

Terminal output:

Seems to be an OpenGL issue, which is weird. It's working fine for everything else on my computer, and stuff like 3d preview in the Slade map editor works fine as well. As far as I can tell there's nothing wrong with my graphics driver (though I'm not completely sure on how to properly check this).

I'd downloaded the Flatpak version of Slade.

Graphics driver I'm running is Nvidia version 545.29.06.

Anyone got any pointers on what more I can do to poke at this issue? I'm at a bit of a loss, and I'm not great at this stuff.

Please read the README.md in full before actually using the script. Alternatively, you can open .md files using Notepad by right clicking the .md file and selecting "Open With" Notepad. But opening in Notepad will result in the Markdown being unformatted.

Here is the zip file. STBAR_extender.zip
Here is the Github repo.

Here are some examples of extended STBARs created by the script.

A bit of a weird question, but...

Is there a way to somehow convert a font from .lmp to a .ttf format?

Thanks.

The starting area contains 3 switches that are used to lower the bars at the bottom of the cross shape. The problem is that the white one by itself lowers the bars. It is activating sectors tied to tag 16 while it is tag 1.

The way I got it working was by using a voodoo doll with 3 barriers that are each lowered by a switch. The linedef at the end of the closet is getting activated without the voodoo doll moving. I would really like an answer for this.

Here is the map if you need to take a look for yourself.

Use the resource pack with the map. It is Boom compatability.
