Question for advanced DR users...


Recommended Posts

How ling would it take to build Episode 1 Mission 1 "Hangar" from original DOOM?

 

How long for just geometry and lighting?

 

No AI, no objects, no keys or chest, minimal textures repeating.

If you know what you are doing, no more than two or three days. The results probably wouldn't look very good, but it would have the essentials.

Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us. Our bands of iron and hammers of stone prevailed not, and some did doubt the Builder's plan. But the seals held strong, and the few did triumph, and the doubters were lain into the foundations of the new sanctum. -- Collected letters of the Smith-in-Exile, Civitas Approved

Just asking for information of how long it takes for something from 1993 to be built on a 2003 editor. I'm in no way encouraging building it.

 

Now, imagine building QUAKE II levels with the Wolfenstein engine. *head explodes*

Well, for Deadlove or anyone else interested, you can check out Ricebug's Thief 2 FM, "Doom," that he made in 2007. It's the first two levels of the "Knee Deep in the Dead" episode in the Dark engine. According to the readme, it took six months to build "in his spare time," but as Biker says, you could probably do it a lot quicker if you're skilled, not to mention if you're using Dark Radiant over the unholy Dromed :)

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
