joseffor our New Years party i have made a doom map of our apartment for the party guests to deathmatch in
Farooq Karimi Zadehthat's really cool! How did you make a doom map of your apartment?
Troldann Arothin@farooqkz @jk Doom is one of the easiest non-tile-based FPS games (conceptually) to make custom maps for, once you understand the technical limitations of the engine. https://www.doomworld.com/classicdoom/utils/editors.php can hook you up.
Renalia - #1 pizza downloader@jk deathmatching the way god intended
Vaska Raeca@jk That looks fantastic, it'd be cool to release it but then again there's the privacy issue; wouldn't want strangers looking around my place even in low-poly form.
Walter Nissen@jk The perfect map for conditioning yourself to burst out of the bathroom, in real life, and check your corners, to the stunned, wide-eyed faces of your loved ones.
nev@jk [Image description 1: Two very old computers, one a yellowed Compaq desktop and one a chunky Toshiba laptop, side by side on a desk. Both are showing Doom games in progress, and the map does indeed appear to be an apartment. The paper sign above the computers calls it a "New Year's Eve Interactive Multiplayer Experience."]

• CHILD OF SEHERON •@jk This is baller as hell.
Andrew Douglass@jk I knew someone that got expelled when we were in high school for making a CS:S map of the school. Basically crushed his dreams of doing game design.
Mark Whybird@ardouglass @jk They should have given him an award!
@ardouglass @jk Hm, I sort of see where they were coming from, but they were still wrong.
morb@jk hell yeah
The Doctor@jk That is really cool. :)
Korinne@jk now you just need to make it so you can play Doom on the computers in the game a la https://youtu.be/c6hnQ1RKhbo
You can run Doom inside (DOS) Doom, for real.
MacBalance@jk I remember a whole series of Half Life maps that were various rooms, but scaled as if the players were only inches tall.
survivaldeficit@jk I haven't made a custom level matching my home in 20-something years, I need to get on that.
Ben Stokman@jk download please?
Rainne@jk MyApartment.pk3?
