AMP map pack. FINISHED, SO SEXY!!

[TERRORsphere]

Until Saturday, I'm not working on anything mm8bdm related.

I'm working my arse off trying to get a qualification.

[Mendez]

That's completely fine DTD. Expect some delays due to us taking some off days with friends or living a life. But rest assured that we'll deliver something worth the wait. We're glad that some of you are satisfied with our product so far and that we can continue to work hard to provide you with something amazing in the future. And now, some good news.
AMP09 AND AMP11 ARE NOW 99% FINISHED, MEANING THEY'RE NEARLY GOOD ENOUGH FOR RELEASE. THAT MEANS I CAN CROSS THEM OFF THE LIST OF MAPS THAT STILL NEED TO BE DONE FOR THE PACK. HUZZAH.
List of maps so far, as well as their progress:

(click to show/hide)

AMP01: 100%
AMP02: 100%
AMP03: 100%
AMP04: 90% (still need to review it's item locations)
AMP05: 99% (One last thing to fix before it's fully done)
AMP06: 95% (Needs a good music theme)
AMP07: 70% (Design seems mostly complete, Items and music remain)
AMP08: 30% (Too busy fixing other maps to bother with this one lol)
AMP09: 99% (brb, music change)
AMP10: 100%
AMP11: 95% (Teleporters and music remain)

Blaze has been anxious to see the final screenshots of each map. I'll try and one up that and make a trailer. We'll see what happens.

Last screenshot for AMP11.

AMP11 looks suspiciously like that old "Troll Man's Stage" from a while ago. With non-SnakeMan walls.

[*]AMP09: 99% (brb, music change)

It better have BATMAN

[TERRORsphere]

Lol I don't even have Doom Builder on my computer at the moment.

[Mendez]

Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland is the greatest donut shop of all time. Everything else is opinionated bullshit.
For AMP, I've done absolutely nothing lol. Starting tomorrow though, me and DTD should start going into "crunch time". What this means is that we really start putting some effort into this map pack and focus on really getting this map pack out at soon as possible. Summer vacation is nearly over, and god forbid this gets a september release. Anyways, I'll have most of the 90% maps cleared tomorrow and begin focusing on AMP08. I may invite a special guest to collaborate with me on this map, so that they can begin gaining good experience with mapping. That way, if they were start an expansion of their own, which they have been thinking of, they can start off on the right foot. Of course, they can reject the invite and let me fly solo. Again.
FFFFFFF DTD YOU BETTER MAKE AMP07 THE GREATEST MAP OF ALL TIME OR SOUL HELP ME.
Also, regarding Ken's request... I'll make a secret duck that plays that music. It could work as boss music for AMP09 though. Speaking of 09, I got permission to use the music Tails once requested. This means this map pack just got 20% less horrible! huzzah.

[Kenkoru]

It could work as boss music for AMP09 though.

Yes

[Mendez]

Instead of working on AMP08 like I was supposed to, I decided to put that aside (again) and work on looping the music for this map pack. An issue that was reported by some folks was that the music didn't loop at all. I took about a half-hour today editing the songs and making them loop-friendly. At least, that's what I think I did. Honestly, all I did was just cut the first .2 seconds off each track, then head to the end of the track and cut it off where I felt it would loop best. 8 Fighter X tracks all ready for inserting, clocking in at a slightly hefty 16.1 MB. At least that means there are basically only two maps remaining in the map pack. We still need to make some weapon fixes, but I think that will be saved for later.

AMP09: 100% (BATMAN)
AMP10: 100%
AMP11: 99% (I don't know whether to half-ass the teleporters or actually go for a smooth transition)

[LlamaHombre]

AMP09: 100% (BATMAN)

Yes

Also, make the teleporters smooth.

[TERRORsphere]

Tomorrow I'll work on AMP07. I'll perhaps finish it. I just need to add items to the map and perhaps add even more detail.

[Mendez]

Well, music is no longer a problem. Remember, once you've finished AMP07, there's still the tiny issue of making it compatible with the MM7 expansion, as well as fixing the flamethrower's ammo bar. After AMP08, I'll revise AMP07's items and make sure the mapinfo and credits are up to date. This is the last stretch, so let's make this count.

[TERRORsphere]

PM me the weapon, I'll fix it.

[Mendez]

The weapons have been sent to DTD for fixing. I assume he's mostly done with AMP07 at this point, so I can hopefully cross that off the list. Right now, I'm in the process of rushing through AMP08 and making sure that the product released to the public isn't some half-assed piece of crap. Major texture choices seem complete for the most part. There's still one section to design, and then there is the annoying process of adding more detail and then adding items. I'll look for a good temple theme tonight and then see what I come up with. Anyways, here's a screenshot of AMP08: Indiada Jodes.

LOOK YELLOW DEVIL. A THEME. ARE YOU HAPPY NOW.

AMP progress:

AMP07: 90%(?)
AMP08: 50%
Weapons: 90% (Still need to fix a few tiny mistakes)
Misc.: 70% (credits, mapinfo, and music looping)
