was started nearly two years ago, and now I'm finally resuming it!
So what's it all about? It's a total conversion for doom2 that utilizes all of prboom's wonderful features. I've completed all the assets (sprites, sounds and dehacked), I've selected a and now I'm ready to start mapping, I've finished map01, and 02. Now before anyone jumps to any conclusions, this is not a remake of doom3 by any stretch of the imagination. I've came up with my own plot and I'm following it strictly. Where does this take place? I'm not sure yet, either Phobos or mars. What kind of maps can you expect from this wad? Plenty of unique, fun and addictive maps, though the first 11 maps will all follow the same basic theme, map12 is where the wad really takes a turn, by map12 you'll be in the underground environmental labs, these labs simulate various outdoor environments (so you'll be playing in swamps, snow levels, underwater levels and all that stuff). Weapons wise you'll have the good ol' doom3 weapon set, but each weapon serves a different purpose. The chaingun is tailored for close combat it fires 4rounds per 2 shots giving it a devastating punch (if you're close enough)and is perfect for waves of tough monsters , the machine gun however, is a highly accurate weapon designed for long distance enemies or taking out one enemy at a time. The rest of the weapons are similar to the original doom weapons ( I think you'll know how to use them ;) )

It's pretty good, but there are a few problems that are holding it back.

First off, the zombieman replacement requires WAY too many shots to go down. I used up all my pistol ammo on the first two in Doom 2 Map 01.

Second, does the bullet puff HAVE to be so large? It's a bit annoying to me, seeing as the bullet "hole" is so tiny yet the puff sprite is practically a cloud in comparison.

Where's my Super Shotgun?

For that matter, where's my ammo?

Also, last I checked, Imps didn't make a humanoid groaning sound when shot.

Not much else for me to complain about...I'll edit this in case I think of something.

In vanilla Doom, the imps have the same pain sound as the zombies.

Here's a little something showcasing the outdoor area of the swamp map. My goal is to re-create atmosphere

Dude, are you re-creating Halo or Doom?

.... seriously? Learn to use colormaps, dood.

I'M JED MOSLEY THE MOST POWERFUL AND CORRUPT ARCHITECT IN NEW-YORK!!!
I CAN'T WAIT TO MAKE MY FUTURE WIFE GIVE UP HER CAREER!!!

It looks cool but what about Doom 64 II? I haven't seen any progress on this for months, and I am not sure if I should finish these last 2 maps for it or put them into another project.

I don't understand why you are posting this in the Skulltag forums when its based around prboom.
