*jotting down tips* mhm thanks

also a good idea is to have height variation in your maps, otherwise it wil be very flat and dull.

detail is another thing its good to have some but never overdo it.
still having a good flow and gameplay is always the most importand aspect.

all this fuckery with with zdoom lumps and coding is a bit overboard just stick to mapping for now, otherwise it all just comes at once and might overwelm you.

would it be possible to make 3d model movies and convert them to the file doom is capable to run it and would it still work

It is not, you're stuck having to make the maps yourself.

what i mean is that is it possible to make a movie and use that as a cutscene for a map

You can not, if you want to do a cut scene, you have to script it using ZDoom acs, that alone takes a lot of time to get right, so, cut scenes aren't really much of an option, since with version changes, they have a tendency to break as the script code changes.

dang it, i thought it would be possible, well i guess i can test it out when i have a better computer

[Mr.Man]

erm... it IS possibe...
It just requires a damn load of acs and cameras. It is also possible with models, theyre the same as normal monsters. Movies as a seperate cutscene is not possible. It needs to be done inside the level itself. I have a "cutscene" on my map, puke 8 in console when you're playing. (So much about my map,rofl)

if you ever need decorate help I will be of your useage, though I'm only on every second day these times.

okay then, thanks, also is it possible to add in a large amount of weapons in a specific project without the chance of breaking the game

Yes, Decorate allows you to do that, it just takes a lot of balancing depending on how many weapons you add.

well thats a good sign, how about a specific hud popup during a specific map for example shotgon frenzy

[Mr.Man]

that could crash. But itll require alot of well-detailed popups

okays then, thats all the questions i have to give out, for now

One major tip i would suggest about mapping (that barely anyone uses), is aligning textures. Aligning textures in your map so they fit neatly on the walls gives your map more definition/tone. (maps with unaligned textures looks stupid and unrealistic.)

Aligning textures is very useful. I always use it when I map. Especially for mountain like sectors

i have a wee bit of a problem, how to add custom textures to doom builder, cause when ever i put the custom textures in doom builder and test it out, it works good, but then i play it, its all out of wack, help me
