HOW TO EASYLY MAKE DOOM CLONE

[dolan0329]

i am 12 and i want to easly make a doom clone on game maker becuase i want like also the ground to be able to go up and down like stairs and stuff and if you plan on helping me friend me it would be easier

Get Build. That's what DukeNukem 3D was made in and is extremely easy to use.

There's also D.E.V.I.L, for Descent 1 and 2.

For commercial application, Unreal Engine.

Its awful to make a Doom clone. I've done it. use something else.

[dolan0329]

like what

[Burgee]

Could just get doom, a doom level editor, and make a doom level pack. That's what I grew up doing.

However, if you want to make a clone of the new doom, you'd better have a whole lot of 3d modelling experience.

i meant the old doom

[Robotica]

Even for the old doom, if you want to recreate everything from scratch you will still need a lot of 3d modeling experience, even for simple low poly models. Actually I would think you would need more experience making low poly models because it takes more work to make good looking low poly models than it does to make good looking high poly ones.

The easiest way would be like burgee explained and just do a level editor. Making a full blown game, even one with dated graphics, will still be a lot of work. I mean you will need to make all the models, all the levels, all the items, all the code, everything... its a lot of work and there is no easy way that I can think of unless you are using something that already has all of these things in place (like just using a level editor).

As someone who is currently working on an old 2.5d style FPS I can say, don't.

Mainly because you used the word easily. A lot of math goes into these games, math I even honestly don't understand. (I just understand that it works and not to question it...)

Also despite whats being said above you don't really need 3d modeling experiance, just math, attention to detail, and determination. 2d models can be used in these kinds of games to much greater effect with the newer technologies we have, you just have to be willing to put the work in.

But again, you used the word easily... so no. Just take a pass on using gamemaker studio if you want to do it easily, otherwise you'll just wind up putting out a Tutorial Edit at most and the world doesn't need more of that ****...

1. get classic doom + download zdoom/gzdoom
2. download DoomBuilder
3. ???
4. profit

Otherwise get ready for some math and some, IMO, difficult D3D implementations. I think you might actually have an easier time doing something like this in Unity, but even then you'd need some programming knowledge to pull it off

ohiv been using doom builder but i have trouble with my doors
i cant open them

[sitebender]

Stick with Doom Builder. Having trouble with doors is nothing compared to making a game by scratch.

[dolan0329]

and i would like a thing that you can like do glory kills like from doom 4

[sitebender]

Make a lesser game first. Then make a Doom clone. I dare say its perhaps one of the greatest challenges to just start out on.

[dolan0329]

huh

Crytek Engine 3 includes those options, but I think you need to pay for that.

$10 a month last I heard. That will show Unreal for charging $20 per month! Before they went free... because they can.
