Looks too lame in addition to (seemingly) have no consistency.
Try making something that has one (1) theme.

In future, if your screenshots are too large to attach, use ImageShack.

I think you'll find that no one actually likes having to download screenshots.

It's like 1994, but with zdoom.

By map09, you start to do some reasonable mapping, but still a lot of work and refining you skills before the maps actually look pleasent.

I used some copy & paste in map09 now i'm tryin to train my skillz

[Alter]

Project cancelled long time ago
reason:mapping skill sucks(i can't draw complex maps!) and unbalanced difficulty
i can say that even i'm making maps for doom for over year, i still suck!

[chopkinsca]

You shouldn't give up that easy. The maps you posted weren't the greatest, but there's a lot (I do mean a lot) of maps that are far worse. Just don't map with the aim of making the best looking/playing maps, aim for creating something you can call your own. You have a lot of potential, from what I've seen of your maps so far.

I used to think I sucked at mapping, and probably gave up quite a few times (each time only ended up being for a week at most, heh). Eventually, from practicing mapping and gaining a different view on what 'sucked' about my maps, I started to think I didn't suck as much as I thought I did. Just keep with it, you'll find your mapping sweet spot before you know it.

i lost all wad files with it of course! because blaster destroyed my waddery HDD! can you in PM send me this wad chopkinsca? heh i'm mapping over year and i still suck! :/

[chopkinsca]

I have no idea if I still have it or not. If I do, no clue as to where it is or what it's called. If you can remind me of what you called the file, I could do a search. I have far too many obscurely named .wad files on my computer in many places.

MAP02demobeta12.wad that's what i called my wad

@Alterworldruler: Ever play my wad Scourge? Most of those levels are of a very low standard (even if they are a reasonably entertaining play), and when I made most of them, I'd been mapping for about 6-7 years, probably longer. I may have only been 13 at the time, but thay's a long time to have improved as little as I had. Of course, in the last year I have improved immensly (thanks be it to DoomBuilder and several little editing excercises coming up). Never give up!

[Alter]

I will play that anyway thx phobus for cheering me up!

looks like a long way waits for me!

Sorry, I don't seem to have it anymore. But that shouldn't get you down. Almost every person who edits for doom has to start over on something they have worked hard to make at some point.

I should start my new project:The level series to 4 games(doom1&2,heretic,hexen) i'm making my first E1 replacement for heretic! so wait to check out but be beware because it's small-sized small-detailed heretic episode!
