not the sources, no. these were maps Kell made during Quoth dev that he had originally intended to make into an episode. Unfortunately, what you see is most of what there is.
that looks super cool!
If only the egyptian enemies from rogue weren't so shit they'd fit in so well there. Agree! Maybe the altered ones from Drake? Certainly a few centroids would fit the setting!
By the way, holy hit You map fast! I really have to get trenchbroom working. Also shame about the kell source. Great inspiration for a new subtheme though http://scampie.net/wp/?p=102
http://scampie.net/etc/mapshots/junk/ Some good, some bad... most will never be finished, some my get reworked someday. Who knows! It is really weird to me that someone took the Wasted set I uprezzed and repainted for Quake3, based on the Quake2 set, and downrezzed them for a Quake1 wad.
also, dunwich is too cute not to finish. maps with little houses and graves are neat. put the castle in that nero shot at the end of it. And i was thinking that no one mapped for DoE because it is a mythos and in reality it doesn't exist
why do you have so much great-looking unfinished stuff? Lemuria has a really unique look to it and I would love to see a full level in that style. I guess it's probably because (like me) it's more fun building stuff than finishing it.
Shame about the Kell sources, I never forgot about that "netherworld palace" idea he seemed to have going on. How about a speedmapping theme where each mapper takes one of those kell shots (or one of glassman's old shots) and uses whatever it depicts as a centerpiece for a level. really gutted about bal's unfinished maps. I dunno how anyone can throw that much work at a bunch of maps and then not finish them. Seems weird to me.
I have no idea why there hasnt been a lot done with this set. It's quite nice (except the lack of a door texture, had to kind of fudge one together).
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7swzkbah0qdetpy/doomoxy.jpg That set was made for a Quake3 level that didn't have any doors in it.
Quake's at the same texture res as Doom, just use the door from Doom :) same here fifth, i think they look great. so much better than plain old idbase. I did a couple levels with them, dm levels for q3 and q2 and really liked using them. don't know why q1 users don't branch out a bit more in texture use. maybe it's too much effort to find different wads. but there's a lot of good tech style textures that could be mixed to fantastic results.
There is some textures that don't look as good when sawn in the Editor than in a map, but i think that the main reason is that people prefer bad already known textures that take the risk. Thats probably the reason too because some people don't like custom mods.
My reason is that i prefer to know how to use Quake's well before moving to the rest. The same as when i use mainly vanilla Quake instead of mods to map. The only thing that goes out of that rule is Quoth entities that give the mapper the opportunity to do some interesting things and others that would need elaborate setups without Quoth. Fifth, those textures choices look good. Keep on it. About WIPs, i would be happy the rest of the year if some of this got released. Just by releasing an unfinished one would be enough. https://www.quaddicted.com/pipeline both are deserving of release based on shots alone, particularly the former - such a great look!
Lun's suggestion to put the necro castle at the end of Dunwich seems possibly fitting if the progression from the church is downwards, beneath the floorboards and into the earth; it would look great situated in a dark cavern rather than a dusky pink sky First up, I was inspired by Sock's monstrosity to make a shitty Coagula map, though it is really much more indebted to (and aiming for the quality level/ scope of) ELEK's Coagula 2. Black fog in lieu of lighting, because who has the time, am I right ladies? No monsters either, nor any real idea of how gameplay will go. I'd say this is like 30-50% done.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/4x65z65l6vfbxc5/coagish1.jpg https://www.dropbox.com/s/7yk9qauwqg4efwc/coagish2.jpg A slimy speedmap that I started for Quoth that seems worthy of expanding a bit, even though the gameplay overly difficult in that classic Quoth-implemented-badly way discussed elsewhere. Silver lining: no Bobs! Probably like 60-80% done, depending whether aforementioned expansion actually happens. Also some fucked up parts I have been avoiding dealing with that will take a minute to fix. https://www.dropbox.com/s/sohag3stimetbae/slimespeed1.jpg https://www.dropbox.com/s/gt08w6a2kujiliv/slimespeed2.jpg https://www.dropbox.com/s/z8nh9jzfvm4qx39/slimespeed3.jpg What's the issue with Dropbox? It works for me. At least I don't have to enable a bunch of useless JavaScript to see the pictures, unlike most of the other image hosting sites.
Blocks public access after a number of views, doesn't allow to open the image separately, is blocked in some work places, etc.
There's no reason to use it over imgur.
