Wow, It looks great for a first map O_O

Not bad. However, you should probably replace the skulltag monsters with vanilla ones - otherwise your map will require the use of skulltag_* files.

uh what is the monster vanilla?

Doom 2 monsters. NOT skulltag monsters like dark imp, belphegor, super shotgunner.

Mm ok then I understood

as ibm said, it's very good for be your first map but i recommend you upload images, because its more easy and quick than see a video

Good Luck :D

Nah, we need more maps to use the Skulltag monsters. But you can copy them into your WAD it you want. (Ultimately that is the preferred way.)

thank you there is nothing to

not bad for a first, however there is very little height variety which makes it look like a bunch of corridors. also id recommend not to use the ss nazi monster on maps that aren't wolfenstein themed.

This map feels like a solid map from ~15 years ago. I agree with mr fiat, something as simple as turning some corridors into stairways or the addition of elevators can go so far in making a level more interesting.

The map kind of seems overall very flat and consists of a linear room-corridoor-room layout which is just boring. The light contrast is good but you should look into more interconnectivity in your layout, larger, more spacious rooms, less doors and more outdoor areas. Try to use windows, with them at least you can look into areas you will go into which already add to the layout as well as combat.

Try also use more dynamic space with the use of more movers, right now all you have are doors. Moving floors/ceilings, crushers, stair builders, and so on. Also marquees seem very underused these days.

Further, try to avoid the use of skulltag_data as it's not of the best quality and isn't even autoloaded anymore. If you need textures, I suggest checking this and this.

Mm I do agree Skulltag put more data but you can against me put the link to where I could put new monsters? it would be nice?

But unless you can manipulate sprites and DECORATE yourself, you're probably better off keeping skulltag_data, IMHO.

Was this wad canceled? 8U

Oh, come on, what's so bad about using skulltag resources? It's not a mod that will be played thousands of times in hundreds of combinations, just a map, and skulltag monsters and weapons ARE fun.

Map seems bugfree, a bit cramped (would be annoying to play online) and yes, very flat. Well, and the big resource of skulltag_data seems to be only used with three monsters, two textures and one statue... Maybe using only normal textures and monsters would be better? And if you want to use these monsters, make them make a difference. Also, a small cartoonish Nazi near a bit more realistic SSG Guy looks very silly. If you want Nazis, use other room for them so they'd make sense...
(btw, making two posts in a row and not editing one and writing your signature under every post is unnecessary).

by cons I have a problem how do you that is the new monsters in doom builder 2 without skulltag_data?
