I was trying to play freedoom and got to the notorious level three that apparently has no exit.....so I went to:
Click here for Freedoom siteAnd it says that some levels are no finished or even broken....it gives a cheat code to get past these levels by typing a code:
"You will notice that not all the levels are done yet. If you get to a level that won't let you continue try this cheat: idclev## where ## is the level number. For example if you wanted to goto level 5 you would type during normal game play on the keypad 'idclev05'."
I went further into the links and found the freedoom project site and it has not been updated in a 1 1/2 years, so it looks like it may be dead, but I emailed the webmaster to see for sure.
Anyway, I spent at least an hour in level 3 before giving up and now I know I wasn't crazy, there isn't an exit (as far as I know) and the level is "in dev".
Perhaps the project could be restarted if enough people in this user group want to finish up the levels and at least have a complete working game.
Seems a shame for it to be soooo close but not done.
FREEDOOM MAIN WEB SITE:
Click here for official FREEDOOM (non-Z speciific) siteI personally have made levels for doom using variious GUI editiors (my favorite was WAD Author, but XWE is very popular) and I can tell you that it is as easy to learn as as Excel or Word....especially the GUI tools.
Once you become proficient a decent level takes a few hours to create and test (most tools will check for obvious errors (like no exit) for you.
