Yeah, imagine you're Indiana Jones or that guy from Pitfall.

From the day Beta 1.5 was released to this day absolutely nothing was done with CQTLQ.

I'm telling you this because I'm starting work on CQTLQ again, but some things are going to change.
For one thing the idea of 40 levels is done for now, like I said before "Chex Quest is not just a Doom wad, it's just Chex Quest." I'm not going to fill every classic DooM episode or level there is, I'm going to make as much levels as I need.

At this point I'm planing on seven levels for the first episode E1M3, E1M7, E1M9 are going to be removed.
You can look for your self at the Progress page or Chex Quest Wiki page for CQTLQ, there you will see the new order of levels.

I'll keep you updated on new progress I make here.

- Also I locked all the outdated topics in this sub-forum.

Also, this topic is a sign of progress. its the first step...or maybe just our hearing of the first step. A release or no PREVIOUS progress doesn't mean there isn't any now, especially if hes telling us this plan. A plan is progress.

Should I change the difficulty level?
Are the levels too easy, too hard, or just right?

75 · March 20, 2009, 11:29:04 PM

keep it as is I say

The Slimeinator · March 21, 2009, 02:25:58 AM

Tweak up the difficulty a notch in Extreme Ooze.

Atariangamer · March 21, 2009, 08:27:54 AM

Puzzle wise, its strong in some points, but bearable. Monster wise, I can handle a few more...bring it.

ChexCommander · March 23, 2009, 05:40:50 PM

Yeah, crank it up in the heavier difficulties, keep it the same in the lowers. More variation, I say.

arch129 · April 04, 2009, 08:18:07 PM

It's spring break for me! ^^

I'm going to use this week to work on CQTLQ.
Hopefully I can have CQTLQ work with the Chex.wad as the IWAD. I'm waiting awhile to make CQTLQ an IWAD, that part will take awhile. I will do it eventually. By the end of this beta I hope to have 5 levels done, E1M1 - E1M5.

I'll post my progress here.

Also I'm open too any ideas.

Manny Cav · April 04, 2009, 08:23:07 PM

I thought you already did those levels.

Well though the transfusion of CQTLQ for DooM Legacy too CQTLQ for GZDooM I realized I didn't like the original E1M3 (Brano City), E1M7 (Sewer System) and E1M9 (Secret Level). In the new version there will be levels E1M1 - E1M7. I'm using the original E1M1 and E1M2 as them self's, the original E1M4 (Outdoor Storage) as the new E1M3 (Green Storage), the original E1M5 (Indoor Storage) as the new E1M4 (Red Storage), A new map + the original E1M6 (Hidden Caverns) as the new E1M5 (Hidden Backtracks), a new map for the new E1M6 (Brano Sewer System), and the original E1M8 (The Core) as the new E1M7 (The Machinator).

It's kinda confusing, but it will make more sense when it's done.

You're not going to use the chex.wad-compatible version I made?
