Level-building video...

And my microphone is working again! And then I decided not to post it... yet... Just click the page break, I explain it better there.

Microphone troubles...

...so no video just yet. :-/

Have a slightly relevant picture for now.

Also, I feel bad that it's been like a year since I started and we're still on Open Beta 1. I was tempted to just release episode one (like the shareware version of Doom I) but I've been promising a lot and delivering a little, so I dunno.

Motherbu-

Not a mother's day post; though I do love her, she doesn't know I like ponies.

So I've received a few offers of help from various people, and I realized I never asked for what I needed (if you know what you're doing, I didn't add any textures to the open beta wad except for a few more posters, so you can use those assets or wait until I finish Open Beta 2 for the updated wad, then just send me the map in a wad just like it's a doomII mod wad, and SLADE lets me just copy-paste it over). But for the majority of people who don't, I decided I should do a walkthrough of how I build a map from scratch paper to finish.

Well, my browser decided to crash as I was writing the blog (complete with screenshots). That's fine, I still have them saved. Then Doom Builder decided to crash. That was not fine, as I hadn't saved my map yet (it takes forever to save and I'm fairly impatient, because the program decides to rewrite the entire file every time you save instead of just rewriting the parts that changed, and the .mp3s in the wad really make it huge).

So map-making insider's look comes... later. When I'm not annoyed with technology.
