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.

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

I am going to use your version. I must have made a misunderstanding in my post.

Alrighty then. Glad to see progress.

At the moment I have been working on E1M1 a bit touching it up. I'm also fixing the translation between E1M1 too E1M2. Instead of a teleporter ending E1M1 I'm making a bridge that leads too the first room in E1M2. (Right screen shot.)

That looks PWNZ. So we will get a chex.wad compatible TLQ with a few graphical touchups?

Yup, also I'm planing on a new map for Release 16. ^^

I'm completely addicted to chex quest and the lost quest looks like fun...and everyone is raving about it, how can I resist that?...but I'm one of those people who can't open doors. How do you make it use the doom wad dealy? (*points at self* Me stupid) If that is too hard to explain to a computer idiot like myself, could you tell me the cheat code for getting around the doors?

MUST PLAY...thanks!

Answer me this: Do you have The Ultimate Doom?

Sensei · April 19, 2009, 04:53:29 PM

I don't think so...I have a lot of Doom versions...but not that one (I think)

The Slimeinator · April 19, 2009, 04:56:15 PM

It's the one with the episode system.

Sensei · April 19, 2009, 04:58:42 PM

Did I mention that I am not good with computer-speak? Description is helpful for me.

I'm not sure what that means...I'm not trying to be pesky. I promise!

EDIT: Do you mean the doomu.wad thingy? (Thingy is a technical term)

The Slimeinator · April 19, 2009, 06:27:27 PM

Yes. You pick from the episodes "Knee Deep in the Dead", "The Shores of Hell", "Inferno", and "Thy Flesh Consumed."

Sorry everybody about the lack of progress lately, blame school... <_<

I'm not sure about you, but I fell like my revision for E1M2 makes the layout way to confusing. I'm planing on simplifying it, but not removing anything. Wacha think?

Atariangamer · April 29, 2009, 08:20:28 AM

I'd say save a backup of the complicated one, and simplify. That way if we want a 'challenge' we can try the complicated one.

ChexCommander · April 29, 2009, 12:46:17 PM

Yes, keep a version of the complicated one as well.

arch129 · April 29, 2009, 08:26:53 PM

It's not going to be a huge change. One thing I'm changing is the location of the water fall, and the the room with the Flembrane is going to be edited a bit.
