Sin - has made a DooM3 remake of E1M1, well, it's probably not that good, or interesting, nor by the looks of it, is it making use of DooM3's capabilities. Looks just like a straight forward copy. But I'm gonna check it out later, just for a look see.

P.S Func_Msgb0rked lol, I just have this anoying habit of hiting the 1 key instead of the i key, most times I catch myself, but.................................... 

It'd be better to see someone remake that map (or hell all the DooM epi's) suited with D3's tech, instead of similiar/exact geometrical copies. 

Or better still, some kick ass custom stuff, but hey, it's early in the piece, peeps just having a fiddle, I am sure time will bring many wonderous things.

Mods
There are already a couple of small mods out, on the front page of PlanetDoom, one just adds the flashlight to your pistol, another allows you to have one of the little sentury bots follow you at all times, forget what the other one is, just small stuff, but it's still early days.

Haven't tried them myself 

unban me from #tf. I don't even remember why i'm banned.

Well, there's a useful mod-ette idea right there. Hey, it was good enough for Sigourney Weaver... 

Some comments from that msgboard...

great, looks nice,

looks good !

Wow, looks nice.

looks really good

NO. It looks fucking foul. I can't see one redeeming feature in there. It looks uglier than maps made for engines that are 1, 2, even 3 generations older.

Well done the QMap lads for actually giving some proper criticism. God it amazes me how stupid some people can be to praise something that looks so shite.

This is why we can't dilute this community too much... 

i got this email from,

jonATalcopopDOTorg

email him or post here if you know...

hello,

I'm emailing you in an attempt to track down Aardappel.

fov120.com/cubeengine.com appear to have dissapeared; I can't get through to
webmaster for those addresses now and Aard has dropped off of IRC for a long,
long time.

I was wondering if you knew any of Aard's cube or quake-related haunts - I
only knew him thru doom so maybe he's still around somewhere... 

And even after nonentity's and Biffs "appraisal" of the map, you get this,

Great job MNeMiC., not bad for a first map.

Then we get a review of nonentity's "review"

As for the degrading comments........Saying it looks like shit is just degrading..........I wouldn't be surprised MNeMiC never open's the editor again............I'm locking this thread as nothing good will come of it but a lesson in D3W etiquitte

God help them if they ever came here. But the line of the day must go to Biff,

I mean, I know the engine is capable of working miracles, but not in this case.

:) 

And the depressing thing is I even said the guy shouldn't quit mapping, just work out what a good map is :/ 

Oh, and even better; the entire map is enclosed in a box because "fixing leaks is too hard to do"

/me headbutts the wall 

I mean, I know the engine is capable of working miracles, but not in this case.

do people always want to remake doom 1/2 levels in 3d engines?

It always ends in tears!

I know! I'm going to remake PacMan Maze #3624 in the Unreal 3.0 Engine!!1 

Actually quite like remakes, when they are done really well. I do like the idea of it, because if you have a standard map template, you can see just how much the engine and gameplay have changed (improved in the former case). 

I'm sure doom3 will result in gazillions of doom 1/2 remakes simply because of the name. 

I thought it was an unspoken rule on this forum that we treat each other with respect and we are here to learn from one another. I wouldn't be surprised MNeMiC never open's the editor again.

This guy should thank you nonentity for giving him the opportunity to be such a self righteous, sanctimonious bitch. Power tripping goody two shoes, and

Our goal here is not to discourage but rather to incourage the masses.

hippie! 

The masses? Delusions of grandeur. 

leave the newbs to their fun guys. out map them and show them how horrible they are. 

and then the mod closes the thread. Don't let anyone respond to what you said then, asshole. It's a forum for discussion not a talk-radio show where you can dump the callers and get the final word. 

. 

a tinpot dictator manually bringing himself to climax in the dirty little confines of his parents basement, moderating away long into the night?

Why, I'd never... 

I'm closing this thread.

DooM3 and GTK Radiant

It seems that GTK will be getting DooM3 support soon -
Doom 3 support in GtkRadiant is fairly likely to happen, as it is the shortest path to bring editing capability to the Linux and Mac versions. Remember that we are always looking for new contributors for GtkRadiant :-)

They Have also started a 'Wiki', all found overe yonder.

And what a fitting post to claim it with
see metlslime to colect your prize 

BEWARE !!!

Couple days ago a mod that would allow co-op in Doom 3 was released which supposedly wasn't finnished. However after several members from PlanetDoom gave it a test, they've recently discouvered that their cd key was now listed as "Already in Use". All of what this mod seems to do is display single player maps in the map list and crashes the host whenever a player attempts to join. Obviously, from now on it is believed that this is not a mod at all but more of a cd-key stealing program, so please be aware next time about what you download.
