Ishambard<p>So, following <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://gts.da-miez.de/@irgndsondepp" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>irgndsondepp</span></a></span> custom made <a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/Doom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Doom</span></a> map, it got me thinking about the kind of map(s) I would want to make and I am kicking myself slightly from the ambition.</p><p>I mean, theoretically, I can make it as one big map, but I like the idea of breaking it all down into smaller maps and making it more like a classic Doom episode. It would also make it easier for a gimmick and story i had in mind.</p><p>I know, story in Doom?! What am I thinking?!</p>
Continued thread

It took me ages, but now that I actually looked into it myself, I fully understand why #Doom mapping and modding is still a thing, more than 30 years after the game was released.
It's just soooo easy to get started. The hard stuff will always be hard of course, but you don't have to aim for that.
My ambitions are just "have fun" and Doom is perfect for that. It's super easy to throw something together in a few minutes and put it into the game. 😍

OG #DOOM mods are freaking awesome. This one is quite special. #DOOM4GZ. (I apologize for the crap encoding, I had to make it small enough to upload here and avoid YouTube. Original was 4K 144FPS).

I sat down and built my first #Doom map. 🥳
I used Slade and followed @eevee 's guide. It was super fun and I was able to develop my idea from a mere thought to a playable level in maybe two hours?
I still want to polish it a bit, because right now all the rooms look same-y with the same textures.
But the gimmick I came up with works surprisingly well and the level feels proper challenging without being unfair.
I'll make sure to put it up somewhere, possibly on my blog, when it's finished. 🙂

#Claymation music video featuring the best of 90s video games. There's #Doom, Chun-Li (from Streetfighter), #Starfox and a bunch of other #Nintendo and #Sega gear and games!

The video is made in the very rough kind of claymation that has the animator's finger prints all over the characters. Even more noteworthy are all the tiny objects like gameboy cartridges that are also made from clay instead of being 3D printing.

Say... has anybody tried running custom #Doom content on a hacked PS Vita?
I just listened to the recent DOS Game Club episode about Doom and now I'm kinda in the mood to play some Doom.
I'm sure custom maps and map packs will work fine, but I'm wondering if it's possible to play mods too. 🤔
I guess it will fall down once new keybindings are added.

The community-made #Fallout game called Fallout: Bakersfield has released its first trailer.

Made with GZDoom, this one's going for a gritty older shooter feeling to it, and I 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 hope this one manages to get finished. Too many Fallout projects end up folding. A full conversion mod for 1993's #Doom like this looks incredible.

These are the fun little #gaming projects I love the most, and I'm very much going to follow it closely!

#Saturdoom is here. A day where we shine a collective light on #doom as a genre of music. Where other genres of rock and metal went faster and louder, doom decided to slow down and go low and slow.

Doom is not only metal, it ventures back into rock, psychedelic and stoner, so anything goes. I'm not the arbiter / gatekeeper of doom.

I could go for a jam session in/around Hamburg. Organised a few with old mates from the Ruhrgebiet area, but some local musicians to write songs/dick around with on weekdays would be nice

Maybe it's time to make that folk/BM band come true
