Hi guys, I've been trying to learn some level design with Quake. I've spent many many hours since February mapping, texturing, creating scenarios and trying other dumb experiments I had in mind. Most of those experiments are in a scraps folder, but because most of them will be useful for me in the future.
I've never had a closer experience with game development or level designing before, but here it is, my first attempt at a release-able map. It's mostly inspired on DM maps, and the idea behind the gameplay is to "emulate" CoD Zombies with a quick button hunt. Here, have some screenies: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938300422225930/spasm0002.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938318578057226/spasm0003.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938322773278770/spasm0004.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938323704545310/spasm0005.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938326371860500/spasm0000.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938331883438110/spasm0001.png Yes, art is not my forte and on the Quake Mapping discord I got some recommendations regarding texture selection. It looks a bit better now, I'd say. So let me know what you think guys. This is not finished: any suggestion will be taken in consideration and any issues will be fixed asap. Nacht Der Un-Quake-n Just want to share this cool looking robot Bal is making:
https://twitter.com/BafuBal/status/1386059635824734210 It's a replacement for the AD "hunter" robot (previously from Rubicon Rumble Pack), which originally used a model from Malice. Always felt QUAKE had some remenicense with the lord of the rings, so it needs ghostrider.
ShadowRider It was more work than I thought. As it are two monsters in one it kept breaking the limits. But I felt there had to be a ghost rider, as there is a ring of shadows.
And yes.., it gave me a hell of a nightmare. Seriously. Oh yeah, that reminds me, You never fixed the attack with the Chasm skeleton. The chasm Skeleton's current idle pose is suppose to be a melee attack pose.
oh you did? I apologize. maybe I don't have the latest version. But the skeleton should have four attacks total. melee attack, two sword attacks, and a blast attack.
I started a map a few years back when I had a little time off. I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the maps in mapjam2 so I wanted to make something in the same vein. I got as far as making about 1% of what I had in mind.
screenshot 1 screenshot 2 I started getting frustrated since I couldn't come close to what I saw in mapjam2. I thought that skacky's texture usage was brilliant but I couldn't match it, so I started a DM map to try and get more comfortable with the textures. screenshot 3 I couldn't finish it before things got busy. I like the texture set though and it would be cool to see more ikwhite/ikblue maps. The maps in that pack almost present as a greatest hits collection. In addition to skacky's texture usage, I couldn't believe what mfx, Scampie, sock, and Tronyn managed to pull off as well. Hey folks would love some feedback on this DM map. Don't hold back on the critique!
It's basically my first map in about 18yrs, and it's my first map in Trenchbroom. Certainly haven't followed best practices building it! I'm building it to play some deathmatches in at the upcoming Romero DeathJam.

Next one is on this November. Was meant to be in June but there was covid lockdown in Ireland. Things are only starting to get back to normal here now.

I made a new Quake1 model inspired by the Future vs. Fantasy model "demon2". It is a creeping low ground figure that has a shambler lile outfit. I thought it moved a bit "wacky"so I reconstruckted it to a model that stays lowground, so it can creep underneath ledges.
gif demon2.zip The tumble animation, is that a death animation? I think it would look frighteningly cool if it moved around in a similar way.
@-Text_Fish:thanks!
@-Salbrox:yes,but coding could also make it a walk pose. Now I think of it. I forgot to give it a run pose. Maybe a shrinked version of the walk pose could do. Made the quad trap much bigger, added a pentagram, moved some weapons and added some more detail to the map.
