Death Bear Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) Folks, it’s that time of the year! With Doom’s Dirty Thirty quickly approaching, I decided it was time to get festive at the Pineapple Under the Sea. So, admittedly, our long-planned sequel to a certain Hellish event got the boot (for now), and we’re going to have another birthday bash! (This time, not for ourselves). Since this game is 30, flirty and thriving, with a community that’s (as the kids are saying these days) “bussin”...it’s time to dust off the DOOM.wad here at the HQ and get to mapping! I welcome you to D-30. We continue PUSS Series Seres IV with a tribute to the classics. This is the closest thing you’re getting to a “Doom the Way PUSS Did” or “PUSS the Way iD Would’ve Wanted Us to Speedmap It” or “Knee-Deep in the PUSS” or what-tf-ever. We’re not trying to reinvent the wheel, or necessarily freshen up the iwads, here. Now, the only thing that’s missing… is YOU. Come get some D with us! (Doom. I mean Doom. What am I, 8 years old?) PLEASE READ ALL RULES AND MAPPING GUIDELINES iWad: DOOM.wad (I’m assuming most of us play off the Ultimate Doom, but I likely won’t be using the fourth episode). Format/ Target: Doom (Doom format). Limit-Removing. Make sure it runs in Crispy, and hopefully we can get it to work in most everything else, too. Difficulty Settings: Yes, please! I will do them arbitrarily if you don’t. Co-Op/ Multiplayer: Please keep in mind Co-op gameplay, and make sure to put in starts and check for soft-locks. Extra stuff for co-op would also be nice. Deathmatch starts are not required. I’m arbitrarily adding co-op starts if you don’t. Pistol-Start/ Continuous: Balance for a pistol-start, but I would suggest dropping some health packs or something at the end for continuous players. Build Time Limit: Nope. Not this time. But our deadline is pretty solid. So, if you want to “speedmap” it, that’s fine. Either way, you’ve got a limited time. Classic Theming: We’re going for Knee-Deep in the Dead, Shores of Hell, and Inferno vibes. It should feel close to the originals. Your style is more modern? That’s okay. Keep it close, both in gameplay and texture palette. Mostly incidental combat. Mostly non-linear layouts. Some secrets. Consider what DTWID…did. Homage or remakes are great. Inspired by something like Switcheroom? Cool. I’m sure we won’t be able to appease everyone, but you know…let’s try to keep it classic-ish? Bonus points if you stick to old naming conventions…but I suppose that’s optional. Boss Monsters/ Levels: Please limit the boss monsters in general map usage. If you want to make a boss map, fine, but if we have several, I’ll have to rearrange accordingly. Monster Count Limit: 200. This is rounding up from UV for the first three iwad episodes. Lots are below 100. No Slaughter maps, this time. Skies: Not this time. Music: Classic-feeling midis that don’t break copyright would be preferred. Maybe consider the Ultimate Midi Pack? I don’t care if there’s repeats this time. And if you want to use the default music, that’s cool. Since we are in Limit-Removing, there will be some repeat music in said ports that don’t support UMAPINFO or MAPINFO. Be aware of this. Resource Pack: Hey! Were you expecting a texture pack this time? Nope. We’re keeping it stock. Don’t ask for custom textures, please. Deadline is November 20th, 2023. Either this thread or Discord channel is good. I want time to compile and hopefully get this out before December. Please use this format for submission: Map Name: [ X ] Author: [ X ] Music: [ Song + Author ] Episode [1,2,3]: [ X ] Difficulty Settings: [ X ] Comments: [X] Screenshots: As most of the speedmapping rules don't apply here, just make a map! Effort: Let’s try to keep it higher effort…as in not intentionally all 1994 shovelware jank. If you're new, though, don't be worried that I'm not going to accept your map. We can always improve. Make sure it can be completed. Don’t modify the iwad levels and submit them. No generated maps (i.e. Oblige, etc.). Map Submission Limit: There is no cap to how many maps you can submit to this event. Fixes: Any bug fixing/map changes are due to me 1 week after I upload the final playthrough video of the last submission. I will not fix or edit your map without permission, but if you ghost us after submitting a map, I reserve the right to make necessary functional fixes ONLY (soft locks, missing starts, broken tags, etc.) so the map can be played and completed, or to reject the map. By submitting, you're agreeing to this. Of course, we'd prefer you take responsibility for your own work, and I will make multiple attempts to contact you first and give a reasonable amount of wait time. If your map is broken and you refuse to make any NECESSARY fixes so it is compatible with the target port and is beatable, then it is subject to rejection. Just remember, we're here to HELP YOU, so don't be discouraged. Somewhere off the Shores of Hell, where the ocean floor denizens walk knee-deep in the sand is the Pineapple Under the Sea. We welcome mappers from Inferno and back, whether you’re too young to die, you don’t like it rough, you want to be hurt plenty, or you like ultra-violence. We learn and grow and map and celebrate together! Grab your shotgun, enter the hangar, and come on down to the Pineapple Anomaly that is our discord server!

NeilForshaw Posted November 1, 2023 Tempted to make a map for this. Any excuse for doom 1 style maps. :D You mention Crispy but not chocolate. Does that mean we don't have to be absolutely strict on the visplane limit?(amount of times I've tried to do "original vanilla style" map but just pipped the visplane limit) :O 4 Share this post Link to post

Death Bear Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) Map Name: Hung Up Author: Death Bear Music: At Doom's Gate by Bobby Prince (Might Change) Episode [1,2,3]: 1 Difficulty Settings: Y Comments: Welcome to E1M1. The resemblance is striking. I think. May add more secrets. Spoiler 5 Share this post Link to post
NecrumWarrior Posted November 1, 2023 I'm probably going to make an Episode 3 boss map. I got an idea brewing. 4 Share this post Link to post
Blexor Posted November 2, 2023 Doom 1 Format? But how the heck am I supposed to make a map without archies and revs in it? Jokes aside, this should be fun. I've never actually made a Doom 1 map before. Here's a great chance to fix that. And... I might already have an idea, too. (Would be E1, almost certainly) 3 Share this post Link to post
Peccatum Mihzamiz Posted November 2, 2023 Map Name: Swift Crater Facility Author: Peccatum Mihzamiz Music: "Goin' Down the Fast Way" by @leejacksonaudio (from Rise of the Triad) Episode: Perhaps a nice E1 map slot 2, 3 or 4 thing? Difficulty Settings: Yes, including a bit of co-op stuff Comments: Named after the crater called 'Swift' on Deimos (itself named after Jonathan Swift, who apparently predicted the existence of two Martian moons in Gulliver's Travels). This map is allllllmost vanilla. I had lots of fun mapping. About 4 hours mapping time. Yes, I did channel my inner skillsaw a tiny bit for the first fight, why do you ask? May Romero smile upon us...Bugs: The yellow door is broken for some reason, so I just opened it for now. Will fix at some point... Screenshots: Spoiler Download link 9 Share this post Link to post
LateNightPerson Posted November 3, 2023 Map Name: Disposal n' Decimation Author: Late Night Person Music: Quake II - Descent Into Cerberon Episode: E1, big enough for a penultimate map imo. Difficulty Settings: Not yet implemented, same can be said for co-op. Comments: Made in about 8 - 9 hours, this was pretty fast due to my familiarity with Doom 1's assets. There's a cyberdemon boss fight towards the end, but it's pretty manageable with cells and rockets. d30_lnp.rar 5 Share this post Link to post
Lina Posted November 3, 2023 https://www.mediafire.com/file/ghuwmb4d3m93i6o/Blast_Terminal.wad/file Map Name: Blast Terminal Author: Lina Music: Ant Farm Melee by Lee Jackson, from the ultimate midi pack Episode [1,2,3]: 1, probably best for slot 5/6 Difficulty Settings: currently UV only Comments: I kept thinking of E1M9 while making it. Almost hit the monster limit, but I didn't cheat with lost souls. If it feels too modern, it might make a good secret map. Screenshots: Spoiler 8 Share this post Link to post

Death Bear Posted November 4, 2023 Y'all! We launched just a few days ago, and we've got over an episode worth of maps! And I've got two madlads tag-teaming an entire E2-inspired episode! (And NO, for once it's not me!). This is fun as hell Inferno! Yeah, baby! Here's two more from me. Map Name: Ursine Anomaly Author: Death Bear Music: I Sawed the Demons by Bobby Prince (Might Change) pisode [1,2,3]: 2 Difficulty Settings: Y Comments: My take, though I used less teleporters, I think. Par is 1:30 seconds. Map Name: Flesh Wound Author: Death Bear Music: Untitled by Bobby Prince (Might Change) Episode [1,2,3]: 3 Difficulty Settings: Y Comments: Another E3M1 take. Par is 1:05. NOTE: The fact that I did episode-opener-homage/ remakes does NOT exclude other people from doing so! Just make some maps! 6 Share this post Link to post
Somniac Posted November 5, 2023 Map Name: Deimos Outpost Author: Somniac Music: stock (might change, not sure) Episode [1,2,3]: 2 Difficulty Settings: Y Comments: Punchy episode opener style map with a mixture of traps and run and gun combat, overall not difficult. Sticks to the visplane limit, but it stopped loading in Chocolate at one point for some reason, so I guess that makes it limit-removing anyway :p co-op starts added.

Scionox Posted November 5, 2023 Map Name: Forgotten Battlefield Author: Scionox Music: "Coliformication" by Lippeth Episode [1,2,3]: 3, but could also be secret map of 2 Difficulty Settings: Implemented Comments: Sort of speedmap, primarily inspired by E2M9 Screenshots: Spoiler Download: ForgottenBattlefield.zip 5 Share this post Link to post

DukeOfDoom Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Map name: Rotten Core. Episode: 1 Slot: E1M8 Music: Halls of Wandering Spirits by Myrgharok. Difficulty settings: Yes; plus co-op spawns. Tested: Zandronum; Chocolate Doom. Comments: Tried to combine Phobos Anomaly and Unto the Cruel in E1 format. Contains a couple of non-E1 textures and usage of METAL/SUPPORT3; may replace them if they do not fit the theme. Link: Rotten_Core.rar Screenshots: 5 Share this post Link to post
MAN_WITH_GUN Posted November 5, 2023 Map name: Hot Reception Episode: 3 Slot: E3M1 Music: "TheDevilsWork" (track by Doomkid) Difficulty settings: Yes; plus co-op spawns. Tested with: Crispy Doom.

cannonball Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Submission 1 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/6cbddzb9kyh7iefs2xyf7/Go-phish.wad?rlkey=uuu2huk3ek9z7hde1yjaqicc9&dl=0 Map name : Go Phish Author : Matt "Cannonball" Powell Music - Just the stock track from E2M4 at the moment Episode : 2 (Plays in E2M4) Difficulty settings : Not at the moment Comments : Inspired somewhat by Deimos Lab, the aim is to go inside the computer itself and rid the evil from it to progress onward. I will do difficulty settings etc once the UV element has been ironed out a bit. The monster count gets close to the 200 limit, but hopefully it isn't too much to handle.

BeachThunder Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) Been working on an early E1 map. Possibly E1M2 or E1M3. Trying to make something feel like an actual Doom 1 map without directly referencing stuff from Doom 1 is a lot harder than I thought. Hopefully I end up finishing this. 4 Share this post Link to post
BeachThunder Posted November 10, 2023 Okay, I guess I'm calling this done.Map Name: Chemical StorageAuthor: BeachThunderMusic: Dark Halls by Bobby PrinceEpisode [1,2,3]: 1 (the map is in E1M3)Difficulty Settings: YComments: The goal was to make an authentic-feeling Episode 1 level without directly referencing any IWAD levels. I probably paid too much attention to detailing for it to actually feel authentic, but it still ended up being something I'm satisfied with. Par time: 2:20.

myolden Posted November 12, 2023 Map Name: War Toy Author: myolden Music: Hate Machine by Jimmy Episode [1,2,3]: 3 (Map is in the E3M1 slot) Difficulty Settings: Not yet, will implement in v2 Comments: Good for an early E3 slot I think, pretty stripped down and lots of incidental fighting. Maybe a bit too linear for it's own good but oh well. Screenshots: Spoiler Bonus: Spoiler 6 Share this post Link to post
