http://speedy.sh/BDp6z/beta7.zip just your average update. Gameplay wise, this version is pretty important I'd say, please leave me your comments if you could!

So, first tests and impressions were held on sunday, and unfortunately the move towards more "abstract" ideas did not go over as smoothly as I had hoped, but that doesn't mean to say all the maps were bad~

Heavenwraith seems to have produced another winner, some maps just need a little reforming/touch-ups and others were tossed. As a result of the testing, I've decided to go back to making what made the first velocity great: sheer intensity.

I'm hoping to get a new build out by this weekend for another round of testing.

Here's my first new offering, Decay Industries

It's coming!

The sequel to Velocity CTF, Velocity II is looking to have some more abstract maps and concepts, as well some heavy slug outs with wicked pace.

Velocity II will be undergoing a far more stringent testing and detail checking than Velocity I, and as such anyone is more than welcome to come help us test.

So far, we have maps 13-19. Some screenshots!






As always, if you have an interest in actually submitting a map to velocity, or want to test it, you can find the me and the latest updates in #mxu on quakenet primarily, or find me in #odamex

Oh shit son!

Very small update

http://speedy.sh/eTdZs/Essayduels1a.wad

maps received some minor tweaks, mostly the same.

Just another typical clan.

With odamex now playable, it's time to get the clan scene moving, and breeding competition. Apex will play CTF/TDM/Duels with any clan.

If you're interested in joining us, give any of us a shout in #odamex because right now we don't have a clan channel and probably never will!

Looking forward to serious scrims yo

Hey guys, here's a set of 8 duel maps I made using only doom2.wad as a resource

http://speedy.sh/Kz3bW/essays1.zip

These maps were inspired and created by the essay-driven insanity I've experienced over the past 5 years. I am only missing one of the maps that I've made before, but the resources to make it just aren't there. And it sucked anyway. Give these a shot, I want to make them good, so let me know what you liked about them, what you didn't like, etc.

They certainly are not meant to look good, they were meant to look like DOOM so I tried my best to not give a shit and be abstract. Total build time for this set is around 7 hours, maybe 8 tops.

map list

map01: Shattered Dreams
map02: Dissertation
map03: Essay43
map04: Analysis
map05: Broken Memories
map06: Conclusion
map07: Methodology
map08: Thesis

With 0.6 around the bend and odamex looking to pick up numbers in community/playerbase/mapper base, I kinda want to probe interest into a (probably DM) concept (which probably isn't new). How about a good old fashioned old school style megawad?

Nitrodm1 got what, 16-18 maps? I think we can feasibly make a decent 32 map dm wad within a reasonable time frame.

The concept though is that the maps are based off their Doom II counter parts; as a result, i'm not expecting/looking for fancy texturing, etc. Map themes should be taken from the Doom II counterpart. Layout does not have to even remotely resemble the counter part, though it would be cool to have some layout inspiration from the Doom II side. Basically, you can really abstract about it, but stick to the dominant theme.

Doom2.wad is the only resource we get. Shoot for a mapsize good for 8-12 people. Anybody down for this?
