Description
A clone of DOOM II: Hell on Earth. Only 11 of 32 maps are playable for now - maybe more will come in the future.
The levels were converted using doom2brush (which I modified to add doors, buttons, and liquids).
Installation
This map requires a plugin to function. The plugin is only active on maps with a "doom2_" prefix, and is needed to set "sv_stepsize 35; mp_footsteps 0" in console (map scripts can't do this). It also keeps track of player HUD scale preferences and weapon unlocks.
1. Extract to your sven folder as usual
2. Add the following to default_plugins.txt:
"plugin"
{
"name" "doom_maps"
"script" "doom_maps"
}
You also need to edit your userconfig.cfg to run at DOOM speeds. Add these lines to the bottom of the file:
cl_forwardspeed 9000
cl_backspeed 9000
cl_sidespeed 9000
Why? cl_sidespeed is missing from config.cfg. If I tried to set these speeds automatically I would break your config (you wouldn't be able to strafe next time you started the game).
Additional info
Getting a perfect score rewards you with extra ammo and armor which you keep on respawn. 100% every map and you will be unstoppable by the time you reach map 11.
Known bugs
- Weapon sprites skip frames when your ping is above 100 or so. I need to remake the weapons as models eventually…
- Clients overflow a lot, especially in ep2. Usually only specific people have this problem (related to ping?).
Additional credits
- Cadaver - helped with Spanish translation of the spawn room message.
- Streamfox - somehow motivated me to make this simply by asking if doom monsters were possible in sven.
- Cryokeen - convinced me not to set speeds automatically and to translate the spawn room message.
- Thanks to everyone who joined the test sessions.
Changelog
September 13, 2018

- Weapons are unlocked when picked up for the first time. Perfect scores give you extra ammo and armor instead.

Map just crash to desktop or main menu, when i try to start it(or connect to friends)!
Make sure you're loading the latest version (doom2_ep1_b6). A crash bug was fixed a few months ago.
If you're on the latest version then check the console for errors when the map crashes to the main menu (press the "~" key). You might have to write "developer 1" in the console before starting the map to getting any useful messages.
Increasing cl_*speed values higher than 400 breaks the Walk button. I recommend servers stop hosting these maps until the spawn message is updated.
The crash on map load was fixed, and equipment unlocks were reworked. You don't really need to get perfect scores anymore since weapons are unlocked when picked up.
Wow. This is so cool.

It'll be even cooler once I fix the immediate crash with SC 5.17 :>
The game crashes during the second mission in the first map so far, at the place in the sewer where you find a lot of explosive barrels and demons when you're searching for the blue key.
Haven't seen that one before. Let me know if it's reproducible - might be plugins causing it.
Noticed the known issue of the clients overflowing even happens on a LAN listen server.
This thread might help:

I haven't had this happen to me yet so I don't know which settings actually matter.
Initially changed the suggested settings and it didn't fix it.
But it seems that sv_lan 1 is causing the problem.
On a side note, we got all the way through and I love your work.
The crash at Refueling Base is fixed.
The net usage and overflows should be reduced too - much fewer ents are active at once now (~5k instead of ~8k).
Awesome job, really very nice maps.
played this with 2-3 players. A few things:
in the "trick and traps" level if you fail a jump in the exit door area the plataforms will lower and you will not be able to reach the exit and get stuck in this area, (unless i missed something.)
in the ep2 the amount of enemies increases drastically and then i started to feel the lack of weapons and ammo, this get worse in "the pit" and "refueling base" levels, where we get killet a lot due lack of ammo/strong weapons.
anyway, thanks for making this.
Thanks, glad you like it.
There's a teleport in Tricks and Traps that opens up after you fail the platforms. It's in the entrance to the room with a bunch of Cacodemons.
If you don't have much unlocked by the time you reach The Pit, then yes it becomes a slog to beat those maps. If you 100% the maps leading up to that then you'll have enough firepower unlocked to breeze through it. It'll be hard to do that though if anyone is rushing.
Love your work so far and it works so well in sven coop.
Have only played the first map solo but will play the other when I can get some coop going.
Played doom 2 to death when I was younger but is certainly still fun.
