Sneaky Doom | MyHouse (Nath) | No Failure Run
6It's quite a fascinating phenomenon, the idea of a dev doing a "My House" thing. You can see it done in all sorts of mapping spheres, from Doom to Half-Life and so on. Heck, even I've done it. Granted, it's not the whole house, and I didn't follow tradition by naming it the same, but still. Anyone who has played the Nostalgia campaign for Cry of Fear'll pretty much see what my bedroom once looked like (it's somewhat changed since then, though the layout is still mostly the same).
Yes, it did cross my mind to wiretear the one everyone knows and run it with either HDest or something else, but a lot of the mod has scripting that's too interconnected for me to untangle the wires to rip them out in the first place. Plus, I don't know just how survivable some of the forced friction stuff can be. HDest at the very least is not a big fan of any sudden velocity changes, the same system behind damages like falling or slamming into wall, without using GZD's native calculations.
For now, we sneak around one of the many MyHouse entries of the world. This one's Rahul Nath's, a house situated somewhere in the Blue Mountains. Pretty nifty setup with my DDZ config, having the outer areas be bright while the inner house and tunnels dark. Makes for a pretty clear cut boundary between which bits I could sneak around. I do know where all the secrets are, but the last one with the rocket launcher is guarded by a manc along with somewhere around 4 barons. Less the danger and more that I can't sneak around them, not in the mood to jack up my kills counter in a stealth mod.
