Happy New /yr/!

Here's a few more name suggestions, let's see if anything sticks:

>Goldenhail
Obvious alternative, which seems more pertinent now that the main metal in this thing is gold

>Brazen Bull
Was trying to thing of a name with "brass" on it, ended up recalling the eponymous Ancient Greek torture device. Might be more fitting for the lava gun though, given the fiery nature of said device (maybe a bronze bull's head instead of a dragon's skull?)

>Tempesta Regia
"Quidquid Latine dictum sit, altum videtur". Not sure if it's correct Latin though, but it should mean "royal storm"

>Magnabolt
Meant to evoke a sense of magnificence, maybe a little on the techy side. Clearly means "BIG DAKKA"

>Kingslayer/Kingslaughter
To drive home the point that this gun is a royal pain in the ass to anyone on the wrong end

>>10495229
Good one.

>>9861208
Any semi-faithful SC-55-likes, I'm not a total snob about it. Anything that's too harsh and power metal I hate. If it has to be a radical departure from SC-55 I prefer the murky synth ones.

Awesome, thanks.

Thank you, sorry about all this I just thought it got properly updated earlier when it was brought up before.

>>7873142
Just make sure but the current release of HFFM is using an older version of map 07 Full Thrust. Please use this version:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/34bkxjpb8b62k2i/fullthrust_v4.wad?dl=0

>>6512197
This basically sounds like Secret of Evermore but with a badass dwarf and now I want it

For some reason, my Hires folder in my .pk3 isn't working. In my Textures folder, I have a texture titled "REDBRK1" and a corresponding high resolution version in the Hires folder. When I run the game, it doesn't work. Sprites in the Hires folder get replaced, but not my textures. What do?

>>6255032
That's why pro mappers do it this way:
>go the "wrong" way and run face first into half a dozen mancubi, 10 cacos and 2 archviles with just your pistol
>have to spend 15 minutes of trial and error to figure out what path the mapper intended for you to take so you get properly equipped before having to face the higher tier enemies
We call it "non-linear level design".

>>6199473
Make a map for Doom. Just sketch something out on paper or in mspaint and start from there. No daunting requirements and plenty of resources to follow.

>>6145862
The idea is that many mappers balance their maps for pistol start, since vanilla doom would pistol start you as punishment for dying. Therefore, it makes sense for mappers to be prepared for that and not force the player to have to restart the entire game.
Some people take it to an extreme though with their no-true-scotsman interpretation of that philosophy, though.

>>6131983
>Why not demo the soundfonts with the E1M1 track that everyone is familiar with?
I actually used E1M1 in an earlier version, but someone suggested Into Sandy's city and I found that the more repetitive cord progression appropriate for showing all three soundfonts in one take.

>you don't specify which soundfont you used for the Crush song. Not really my kind of music normally but that MIDI version bangs as something to play Doom to.

I an extreme bout of laziness, I ripped that song off youtube, so I have no idea
which is funny because I recorded the MAP9 song variations myself

my guess is that it was recorded in fluidsynth, but I'm not sure.

>>6027794
Thank you for explaining all this!

>>5925040
Thanks in advance, I love reading about technical stuff like this.

You have to load both MM.WAD and MMMUS.WAD. If that doesn't work try ZDL, I just did and it's working perfectly.

Any WADs that are good in co-op and that aren't slaughtershit?

So these are all the sourceports I usually install on every PC I play Doom on:

Chocolate Doom
Crispy Doom
PrBoom+
GZDoom (Graf is a faggot but sadly you need it for some wads)

Is there something I should add to my list?
