Embers Of Hell:Ratanaba - version 3.0 UDMF (Director's Cut) =========================================================================== Advanced engine needed : GZDoom Primary purpose : Single play =========================================================================== Title : Embers Of Hell:Ratanaba UDMF (Director's Cut) Filename : eohzratanaba.zip Release date : 2022-jul-31 Author : Milton Maldonado Jr (ARMCoder) Email Address : [redacted] Other Files By Author : Embers Of Hell 2.4 Final Jeff's Arena Embers Of Hell Lost Mission 1 Misc. Author Info : Small entrepreneur in the tech industry, almost left the area to become a professional helicopter pilot few years ago. Description : Urban legends (more precisely, money-seeking crooks) have been saying lately that there's an ancient Alien city lost in the midst of the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. This is a great inspiration for a Doom map, anyway! This is a single map where the player progresses through all the weapons, from pistol to BFG and faces increasigly bigger monsters, until reaching the final boss battle. Difficulty settings are implemented. Ambience is mixed as this is a supposedly ancient but alien city. Expect to find urban, castle, dungeon, tech... Difficulty is not very high but the design is aimed at experienced players. Expect to have a good deal of workload in UV. Have fun!

The map received some good reviews but the last arena was perceived as being too cryptic and overwhelming, so I decided to create a whole new ending to the map. This new ending is way more conventional, but still fast-paced and action- packed. Several minor bugs (mostly involving texture alignments) were fixed in this version. Additionally, few minor adjustments were made in the gameplay along other parts of the map. This is also the first version to bring two WADs, one made for vanilla engines, and the other in UDMF format with several aesthetic effects - tested on GZDoom. Beyond that, both versions have identical gameplay. Due to the way Gamers.org separate WADs for vanilla Doom engine and WADs for Doom source ports, I found better to create separate files as well. So, the vanilla equivalent of this map can be found at: https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/levels/doom2/d-f/ \ eoh-ratanaba Version : 2.0 Filename : eoh-ratanaba-20.zip Release date : 2022-jun-26 Description : Many improvements over 1.0, so I decided to promote the major version number to 2.0. * The MIDI track was remastered to be gentler to the player's ears (I was getting headaches from long exposures to the track). * Visplane overflow issue in Chocolate solved (was caused by a needless easter egg - now removed). * Extensive texture rework and testing, from simple basic aesthetics to tutti-frutti issues solving in Chocolate. Now I hope the map is fully vanilla compatible! * Lighting in some sectors was improved. * Added several traps and encounters to stir things up a little more. * One secret room added. * Several tweaks in the final arena to make it easier to to get the grasp of; linedef specials bugs fixed; the main lift now provides a better protection against enemy fire; a new lift was added close to the entry point to access the upper aisles.
