CSGO map Cache for Doom

As an experiment, I decided to remake a Counter Strike Global Offensive map for Zandronum play. I mapped over an image of the original level so the layout is near-identical. Of course I had to take some artistic liberties so it's not a carbon-copy; it has been remade with an e2m2 theme.

The map is intended to be played in Team Last Man Standing mode. There are weapons and players starts for other modes but these are not recommended. A small script makes players use the team spawn areas in TLMS mode rather than the standard DM starts.

From playtesting with bots, it becomes apparent that Doom's player speed makes a mockery of navigating the map compared to CSGO. I would recommend mods with a slower or more tactical pace. I haven't tried it, but I imagine it might be quite compatible with GhoulsVSHumans.

Anyway enough chat here's screenshots and a download link:

Interesting to see a map translated into a Doom setting. I'll give this a go in TLMS when I get back from a trip.

Looking pretty nice. There are a fair number of counter-strike maps that lend themselves to large FFA, and cache is one of the better ones.

This is actually pretty good. I'm amazed about how well you built this layout in terms of dimensions. And about the textures, you made it look like an actual doom LMS map from the ol' days, good job.

EDIT: I like how you did the floor of the 'checkers room' at B.

Cache is one of my favourite CS maps, so its nice to see this in Doom.
I'll certainly look at this.

Not too shabby actually. Should make for some good matches.

This is a good idea and a great execution, my only complaint would be in the third Doom screenshot the corridor seems a little bit clamped compared to the CS:GO one.

The outdoor areas look rather barren.
Whereas the indoor areas have decent texture variance and detailing (crates and ceiling lights), the outside just has.. Flat walls.

You could probably go the extra mile and recreate outside shadow lines, that'd break up the monotomy of those areas..

The only problem I foresee is characters move much faster in doom than csgo.

So naturally, I can't see a map of the same dimensions providing the same gameplay.

As good as this is by scale and to look at, gameplay would be most optimal if you scaled spaces slightly larger to compensate for the run speed.

Either that or do nothing, it will probably be fine either way.
