volleyvalley Posted October 27, 2023 (edited) Torment Of Screams is a vanilla Doom II megawad made by Team Afterlife. This megawad is made in vein of many vintage Doom .WAD's in a sense, that they don't take up an awful amount of time to complete, and that they don't stray too far from Doom II's episodic theme. But that doesn't mean, that we didn't take a few creative liberties, for instance, alot of the textures were taken from Requiem, Memento Mori, and even some from TVR! The episode themes are: MAP01 - MAP11: Techbase MAP12: MAP20: Cities MAP21: MAP30: Hell Download the Beta: TOS.ZIP Credits: Spoiler @Amaruψ, for making the BARS1, BEEZLB, BOOK (1 to 5) CHRIS1, COFF3, COFF4, CREWAL (1 to 3), DOORHB, DOORM, FLAG1, FLAG2, FLAGW, FLEWALL (1 to 3) GARG (1 to 5) GOREW1, LUCY, MONTY, SHADW1, SHADW2, SKIN (1 to 3) TAB1, TAB2, TORT1, AOMDR, AOMFL, AOMSW, AOMWA (0 to 9), DGUY (1 to 2) CGLASS, CKEEPR, WALLB and WFLAG graphics, and also for making the SKY3 graphics, and for the TITLEPIC & INTERPIC. @Risk, for creating an original music track for MAP26, called: "Contempt" VEINP001 - VEINP012 textures originally made by Nick "NiGHTMARE" Baker and Thomas "Rabotik" van der Velden, recolored by @WH-Wilou84.

bioshockfan90 Posted October 27, 2023 I'm not exactly I'm sure I'd call 3 scattered maps a beta, especially when one of them is the final map and the other is the 32 slot, but screenies look promising. I'm not really in a mapping state of mind right now, but I wish you the best of luck on finishing this! 1 Share this post Link to post

Oh, if you looked at the map order in this thread, and saw the "-", then it was just, that the level didn't have a name, not that the level is unfinished or not existing. Sorry about the confusion, if that was what you thought. 1 Share this post Link to post

Tangentially related but whenever I struggle with coming up with map names I think of horror movies or song names. 1 Share this post Link to post

Oh, and also, if you decide to play it now, don't be suprised, if you find parts, where you can't progress. Alot of them were supposed to be finished by @knor964, but I haven't heard from him in a while, so I'll have to do this myself, which can take some time. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sonikkumania Posted October 27, 2023 Interested, will try 2 try when I'm home. I'll try to post feedback. 1 Share this post Link to post
Sonikkumania Posted October 28, 2023 I just played the 1st stage. The level outlook and texture design was great and such. Slightly easy with the Berserk pack avaiable without secret and such tbh, but considering it's the 1st level it's excusable. I'll look forward to more stages when I can. 1 Share this post Link to post
kalensar Posted October 28, 2023 Heck yeah! THats a fun mapset so far. My YOLO test run killed me at Map04 but that was nostalgia feeling blast. Excellent scenarios going on throughout what little bit I did play. 1 Share this post Link to post
Knor964 Posted November 20, 2023 I am proud of this team of what they achieved. It looks so good to see a project I started by myself over 2 years ago to see it evolve in this amazing piece. Thanks for everyone who worked on this! 4 Share this post Link to post

I'd wager that you're quite new to the modding scene, much less new to the community altogether. If you haven't yet noticed, the project's name currently bears the word "BETA". There never has been a restriction over providing a small showcase of the maps that you're working on, and wouldn't be in the future. If you've got an issue with this, then without any offense, others don't particularly care. 3 Share this post Link to post

volleyvalley Posted January 28 (edited) Once again bumping the thread as Beta 4.0 rolled in, here are some changes: - MAP21, MAP29 and MAP30 are now finished - Brand new MAP07, about 25% done - more new textures, by @Amaruψ - work started on the remaining unfinished levels (MAP04, MAP18, MAP20, MAP24 and MAP27) - Visual revamp on MAP06 is 50% done - Improved MIDI placement Hoping to also implement a .DEH soon, if we come up with names for all of the maps.
