Guest bitroast Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 " It's been 21 years since I made a DOOM level. Here's my version of E1M8 using DOOM1.WAD. I limited myself to only the shareware assets. https://www.dropbox.com/s/2x2ee3r51986dkt/e1m8b.zip?dl=0 " https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153906645721289&set=a.501222076288.298741.517581288&type=3&theater seeing as this is his version of E1M8, and all other levels in Knee-Deep in the Dead were made by (or finished by) Romero, this effectively makes the Episode an all romero curated experience.

ambermonk Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Oh yeah thx for the reminder. That's awesome that one of the original developers has made a comeback, even if by only a single map.Curious to see how the Brutal Doom mod performs on it.

Sounds like you're using the Doom 2 WAD Stephen. Aye the courtyard is a Doom 2 level which probably explains the issue here ! Good level that I can actually visualize what it looks like in my head right now. Doom II (and soon Doom 1/ultimate/Doom 95) were very prevalent throughout my childhood. I occasionally use an updated port to play it online called Zandronum (which used to be called Skulltag). You use this thing called "Doomseeker" to view all the servers being hosted etc. Some of the mods/wads/etc. are really cool and nice to use open gl for the graphics etc. My favorite is definitely one called "Complex Doom" and playing "survival" style co-op multiplayer with it. Anyone else here ever play that? I'll def have to try out that new Romero level later on when I'm not at work.

Yep, same. One of the Barons tried to throw a barrel at me too towards the end, but I managed to dodge it. Very challenging and well-done map overall. For a 21-year hiatus it's like Romero hadn't missed a beat.
