Doom 3 mapping full#
I do this instead of making a full level and then populating it later on, as I feel it produces much more enjoyable end results. Something that helps me a lot is building bits of the map at a time, ensuring it’s complete with gameplay, then testing it. What I advise is when you are building your maps, try to have a “gameplay-first” approach. Now, it doesn’t matter if you have the most technically advanced, beautiful looking map in the world! If it plays like dirt, there’s little point in playing at all. I always say that I map for myself, but seeing other people enjoying my works adds to my own enjoyment, so I do map for my players just as much as I map for myself. Gameplay is a topic of it’s own for another day, but in a nutshell, you need your map to be fun to make people want to play it. This is just one example of a map’s progression but the point here is that you need to work out what experience you’re going to give your players. After the final battle, the player can then exit.The previously inaccessible 4th pathway has a 3-key lock – hit the switch to initiate a timer, which makes a tonne of enemies teleport in, meaning the the player has to survive, fighting off a large-scale arena fight.Once all keys have been collected, the full level will have been lowered to form a large arena.Repeat once more with the only remaining pathway.The player then has to choose one of the other two pathways.Upon collecting the key, the whole segment of the level which the player just beat lowers into the floor, guiding the player back to the start.For an example, lets use a map that I made in the past.
