V1a: Original build
V1b: Dynaman Proto changes.

Map Pack: Classic Warfare Pack: This is a Team Deathmatch oriented map pack. The centers of the map are blocked to prevent teams from getting to close to each other keeping fights much like old wars where armies lined up and shoot back and forth, only with more movement.  Maps in this pack are simple and texturing may not be the best.  The maps have a decent variety of themes and layouts.

FGGTD01 - Chemical Breakdown: Trash disposal center that both crushes the trash and breaks it down with chemicals.  Uncrushed junk offers some cover.

(click to show/hide)

FGGTD02 - Sky High Platforms: Two platforms over the clouds connected to towers.  Higher ground leaves you open but allows you to shoot past enemy's cover.

(click to show/hide)

FGGTD03 - War Ships: Two ships flying through space, combat your enemies over the gaps.  Bring the fight to your enemy by using the door teleporters to reach the catwalk on the other ship.

(click to show/hide)

FGGTD04 - Hot Place: Lava separates you from your foes, hit them from long range or close in to lower their chances to dodge.  Oil pits are connected to the one on the opposing teams opposite side, burn it to take out anyone in it, but be careful.

(click to show/hide)

FGGTD05 - Bounce House: Little cover in this large arena, use springs to bounce yourself out of the way of your opponents attacks.  Some better weapons are higher up, but riskier to get to.

(click to show/hide)

FGGTD06 - Research Center: Gravity and Light is being tested in this facility.  When the gravity is low the lights are off, and when the lights are on gravity is high.

(click to show/hide)

FGGTD07 - Crystal Mine: This underwater mine shimmers beautifully.  It is wider then it is long, and hallways are tight, use the weapons available to hit your opponents even behind cover.

(click to show/hide)

FGGTD08 - Light's Simulator: Light has allowed use of the training room at his lab, the weapons of his first set of robot masters are across this arena.  The invisible barrier keeps you from crossing into the other teams side but allows you to get up close.

ForteGigas Deathmatch pack:
FGDM01 - Forest River: Octagon shaped map within a forest. River circles the map pushing players and items alike. Extra weapons hidden in the trees on the island.

(click to show/hide)

Look at the top right and notice Danger Wrap is not where it spawns, the items in the river move.

FGDM02 - Pac Map: Look at the map, I don't think I need to explain much more. I don't want to hear whining about getting lost or the textures, thats how Pac Man would feel in while running around the map.

(click to show/hide)

FGDM03 - Dynaman Proto: The map I pulled from the DOS expansion is making its return here.

(click to show/hide)

FGDM04 - Blood Gulch: A not so great replica of the popular Halo map. Pistol = Buster, Assault Rifle = Yammato Spear, Plasma Rifle = Bass Buster, Shotgun = Air Shooter, Rocket Launcher = Hard Knuckle, Grenades = Hyper Bomb, Sniper Rifle = Dive Missle, Fuel Rod Launcher (from the PC version) = Crash Bomber, and Flame Thrower (PC version) = Fire Storm

(click to show/hide)

FGDM05 - The Pit: MORTAL KOMBAT!!!  Not really, the idea was to replicate it. Lots of holes with walkways, watch where you are stepping.

(click to show/hide)

FGDM06 - Castle Cortyard: Vertical Level with not many weapons, but an Eddie at the top to help with this. Crowrangs are numerous.

(click to show/hide)

FGDM07 - Torchman Proto: I bet some of you wished this died in the bowels of my hard drive, well it didn't and its gotten a slight visual facelift.

(click to show/hide)

FGDM08 - Orbital Elevator: Three floors and an elevator shaft, the "ground level" is the only part with normal gravity.

(click to show/hide)

"top floor"
"middle floor"
"ground level"

FGDM09 - Simple Deathmatch: Exactly what the name implies, not too much space keeping fights short.

(click to show/hide)

FGDM10 - Sand Pit: Another small map but mostly in the open this time around.

(click to show/hide)

Maps will be available as work comes to finishing them and making them show in game (and music is added).
More maps will be to come as I get better at this (maps based off the stages for my masters as well).

Boss Arenas are the arenas used for boss fights in 8BitDM. The Gamma arena has the weapons used against the Wily Machines placed.

For being your first map, you did a good job (because you didn't use the default airman textures). This first map could be good for Last Man Standing mode because its corridors. Try to make some windows: also you can learn to use an skybox, that you will surely use in your maps next time.

Small observation: if you make maps that have custom weapons like Oil Slider, Timer Slow, etc. those maps won't work with others maps (generally, servers hosts several mappacks that hasn't custom weapon).

¡Buena suerte amigo!

Yea, Ice warned me about that, I was already planning on making a version that replaces the PU stuff with default things, such as a Charge Kick in place of Oil Slider and maybe Time Stopper in place of Time Slow.

[Magnet Dood]

Do NOT put Time Stopper.

Put Flash Stopper instead. It will save you flaming.

Ok, thank you for the tip. I would probably not put Time Stopper anyway because of the location Time Slower is at, the bottom of the room with the cross, be to easy to get.

Also added screen shots for all three maps now.

WIP maps still go in the maps subforum  

For square castle, I'd suggest adding pathways from the corridors into each other, because not only do they look INCREDIBLY cramped, it's also what's called a buster wall.

[Jakeinator]

Also be shure (mispelled on accident purpose) remember that Health and weapon energy come in 2 sizes. Other than that this looks pretty good!
Edit: is it me or does the TAB map look like there is a purple dong (guess what this means) in the room on the bottom.

Hm, if I could figure out how to make hidden rooms without the texture's not covering the whole wall I would love to do that actually.

I know on the first map its all larges, there is no HP on the second, and the third has smalls in the side corridors (along with some large HPs) I still need to learn the right ratio of having HP in the maps.

Also, learned how to get music in and to get the map to show up in game. Now to figure out music that would fit. (Knight is going to play for the first map).

MY FUCKING EYES

WHY WOULD YOU MAKE PACMAN SO HIDEOUS

Grargh, OZX syndrome!
The maps look really plain and not really suuitable for deathmatch.

You have some interesting ideas though.

[-FiniteZero-]

When I first heard "Pac Man Map", I thought it would be a map based off of a level from Pacman. Which would be interesting.

[Korby]

Go play GvH.

[fortegigasgospel]

I'm so sorry it was born because I was in a Skype call and said "Well I made my first map for 8 Bit Deathmatch, it was simple but something" then someone said "can you make a Pacman map?" So, yea, I made a Pac Man map, literally.

These are all made with the idea of Deathmatch in mind, I'll state wither or not a map is for something else. But those will be when I'm more experienced with Doom Builder.

[BiscuitSlash]

Good start to your maps! Although that Pacman map does give me an idea....

(click to show/hide)

The pacman level, with the pellets being health pellets and the ghosts going around everywhere chasing after pacman. Get hit by them and you die. Pacman also eats those health pickups. I'l start soon.

[fortegigasgospel]

Ok, I'm going to try a play test pack, its just the three maps I've made in a zip, so individual, so people can give me feed back from first hand trying.
The maps are NOT done, not by a long shot. All I did from whats been posted already is up the spawn points to 32 each.
Feel free to use this maps how ever you please.

Forte Gigas Fortress must be running Megaman PU WAD.

[fortegigasgospel]

Ok, sorry bout the double post also for the 3 people who DLed the test pack that I uploaded them as WAD and DLS but here is the same foulder with the PK3s included.
Also fixed the little error in FORTG with a wall being climbable.
