Pre-Beta 1.35/1.4 (December 10th Doom's Birthday release) is coming along well
At the time of this post i've shared a image showing a remade doom guy in the hud by Reinchard
I was told to check out his work by Tea monster from the Doom Reborn forum, And thanks to Tea Monster Reinchard gave us his permission to use his work :)
He has been doing this for the DoomsDay engine so you can use it in the original doom along with a texture pack he has made, Use the link on his name earlier to check out the forum for more information on his work. :)

Pre-Beta 1.3 has been delayed just for a short amount of time

Pre-Beta 1.3 is nearly ready
E2M2 and Map05 are nearly complete and I have next week off so I'm hoping to be able to finish off and polish the levels and fix minor issues that have been reported in some videos and comments that I've received from everyone :)
(Thanks so much for all the feedback from everyone really means a lot :D)
Brent has also been working hard on the load and save features but he did have a bit of a problem when
one of his attempts didn't exactly go to plan :(,
But fingers crossed :)
Anyone just a quick update before I go to work, I'll try and keep you's all posted as progress is made ;)

ModDB.com Mod Of The Year Contest has just started,
if you'd like to vote for Doom Reborn just go to the Doom Reborn page at
http://www.moddb.com/mods/doomreborn
and
click the "Vote for this mod" button at the top of the page and your
vote will be counted you only get one vote so if you click the button on
another mod you'll change your vote (Just pointing this out because no
notification comes up alerting there was a change last year)
By the way, Thanks to G2A.com voters have the chance to win giftcards the voters will be selected at random
More information I can share from the email I got from ModDB alerting me of the mod of the year contest
"Nominations
run from December 1st to 11th, Top 100 from 11th to 21st and winners
are announced around Christmas. Sponsors this year are Epic Games who
have offered an engine subscription to the winners, and G2A.COM who have
offered giftcards to voters picked at random. If you have any questions
just respond to this email. Best of luck!"
By the way
Sorry for the lack of messages,
I've been busy moving into the new house, I've done pretty much all that is needed for the next release
I believe I've said that already on the quick update on the ModDB page,
But something i'll share about the next release that isn't stated anywhere yet,
If you don't want to know stop reading
To select episodes in this release coming we've decided to go with a Quake style entrance
just like the start map with the Doom 1 and Doom 2 select,
Once you go through the Doom 1 teleporter you'll come to a room with 4 more passages
1 for each episode,
But there is a known issue which i've found, Hopefully i'll get it sorted for release but I haven't my hopes for
that yet,
If you go through the portal to go to episode 1 and decide to start the game again it'll crash and if your lucky
it'll freeze on the console window stating a error about a NumProjectile 4
And only if you go to episode 1, Not if you go to the 2 other possible options and start the game again, Doom 2 and Doom 1 Episode 2
But to be clear this is only if you start the game and go to Doom 1 Episode 1 and start the game again in E1M1 if you play on and start the game again in E1M2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9 it'll be fine
I'll maybe stick a screenshot up here tomorrow of something before I put something up on ModDB
I want this release to be a Doom Birthday Surprise
Don't want to give out any information really on the changes besides E2M1 and Map04
But one thing i'll say though save and load game still isn't done I can't code it myself it is a task for Brent and
he is very busy at the moment working at his new job he's doing 40hour weeks and I know myself
how straining that can be,
I'd look into the code myself when i'm a bit more experienced, But if I was to try and do it now
it'd probably take me a long time to work it out myself and i'd hate to have ended up writing something that
probably was only working on thin ice if I'd managed to get it working lol
meaning it'd probably have to be completely re-written by Brent or heavily alerted
Anyway we hope you enjoy the next release and have a nice christmas after it's done
oh and if you vote for us
MASSIVE THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! :D from me and brent :)

This is a link to Scottish geeks on youtube.
"Quick Look At Doom Reborn"
i'm sharing this video again because I would like to see scottish geeks

Since the time of this video me and brent have teamed up and done a
couple of new versions so if you like the video and would want to see
more click his like button and give him a comment if you want
He randomly did the video without my request, but I can't request more myself :( lol

www.DoomItalia.it did a news post I felt I
should share
I've put it through bing translate
of course the
translation isn't perfect, But it's ok
"I have made
available for download from our site the latest version of Doom Reborn, singleplayer
modification for Doom 3, inspired by the first two chapters of the saga, which
aims to recreate some of the most important levels, but not a clone of similar
projects, but acquiring a particular originality.
Remember that the
project had been suspended indefinitely in 2007, leading everyone within the
community to believe a possible abandonment, but it was revived two years ago by
a mapper from the team with the development which is particularly accelerated in
the last twelve months
You can download the new release, the Pre Beta
1.0, from here."
Don't
forget to check out Doom Italia for other awesome doom stories and downloads
Also if you want to try out a older version you may have missed just for
the sake of it
You can download 0.815 from Doomitalia here
Thanks
again for the support Doom Italia means alot

Just stuck a couple of the specular texture map comparison images up
I'll try and take more images soon :)
Also I feel as though I should point out the textures are from a JDoom texture pack
The specular maps are more custom made and the Bump maps are generated and tweaked

I've finished Wolfenstein now and I'm about to start E1M9 :)
Wolfenstein was awesome btw
I recorded a alternate version of the Main Menu Theme which is heard during one of the last fights for anyone looking to hear it
I've also shared a copy of the lossless recording I made on file factory
Youtube link
Filefactory link for the lossless quality recording
Recorded at 24bit 48Khz 2channel
Playback was 24bit 96Khz 6Channel
The Creative Sound Blaster Zx doesn't actually allow you to record what you hear at 96Khz
Even though my old X-Fi Xtreme Gamer did
(Filename: Wolfenstein The New Order Alternate Menu Theme 2.zip 632.70MB)
The Lossless quality file is pretty only for people with really good speakers, You'll not hear the difference with cheap speakers or headphones

I've been in contact with Brent (Matt) I'll not say to much about what is going on but Doom Reborn is getting a new site
The Domain isn't final yet so I can't share it yet, but we're looking to get a forum up and going again
Just like the old days,
Technically the forum is already going,
but it's not, The site is just being tested at the moment through another site
Downloads will remain through ModDB but will obvisouly be shared through the site as well
I'd like to share more on this, but I shouldn't
I expect the site to be up fairly shortly

Update: 05/05/2014
So the site is up and going again.
Apperently the test versions where flagged during a routine virus scan...
Dought that myself, I provided them links to AVG and Symantec Norton
Where they can report suspected infected files
AVG
http://www.avg.com/submit-sample
Norton
https://submit.symantec.com/websubmit/retail.cgi
I also pointed out that ModDB run tests on the files before even making them public,
Anyway about the progress of the mod
I've been working alot lately, Got 3 Versions of E1M6 now for Alpha Version 0.84
i've reworked the map, I've Taken everything out of 1.Map file and put it into a new .Map file
This should coreect any problems from the enity limit I hit last time.
The 3 Versions are Low Medium High
Medium will be included in 0.84 as standard. Low and High can be used by choice
Low will have no Partical effects and no bubble sounds from the Acid in the level
Medium will have effects and sounds but no extra Light effects
High will have everything except extra light effects in the Maze because i'll hit the limit again
Which will cause the chucky feeling during frame drops
Due to the shape of the Map I can't really sort out the pre-load,
A slightly reduced distance pre load would work better
This is something i'll have to look further into another time.
Alpha Version 0.84 is pretty much ready
But i'll be doing more testing and quick changes before release
But I will be putting it out before 20th May.
Because I need a quick break to fully enjoy Wolfenstein The New Order :P

E1M6 Test Version 11 (1,762KB - 1.71MB) Filefactory
I have no more room on Webs.com I'm keeping the older test versions up for the time being
When I get Alpha Version 0.83 released I'll take down all Test Versions of E1M6 and E1M5
To make space for future Test Versions of E1M7
This will be the final Test Version before
Alpha Version 0.83
The level is fully playable, I was hoping to get this released a couple of days ago
but I didn't end up with as much free time as I was expecting to have
In alpha version 0.83 I will be making a few more tweaks to lights, monsters and performance.

E1M6 Test Version 10 (1,840KB 1.79MB)
Webs.com told me my web space limit had been reached even though it said I had 2MB left
I had to delete Test Versions 1&2 Sorry
All monsters are in this version some can't be seen till triggered but the rest will come for you pretty much from the start
So... Enjoy :)
I've listed my system specs in the read me to give you guide on what the recommended requirements
for Ultra Quality are
Again this version will be hard on you computer no matter what since the level is not finished.
There is still performance tweaks to be added when the level is finished

E1M6 Test Version 9 (2,713KB 2.64MB)
Just because it was Doom's 20th Anniversary yesterday I decided I needed to get another small test release out tonight to honour that
It's a shame I couldn't get more done since i'm now working two jobs.
But I did check a couple things in quickly to keep things interesting

I had to remove the lights in the maze because last night when I was ready to make a release I had hit a limit and got a error "No Free Enities"
But all bad things work out for the best,
I've sorted some more lights and doors around the place.
Nearly ready to start adding items and monsters

E1M6 Test Version 7 (1,522KB 1.48MB)
For the past couple of days I've been reinstalling windows and backing up my old hard drives.
It took up more time than it should've, but at least most of it is behind me now,
This version will be hard on performance I haven't had the time to tweak everything yet.
I've added alot of the lights but I've still alot more to do, The maze I may tweak slightly due to the light texture being
one of the odd ones we had, It's always bright even with no lights in the room
(with no lights you shouldn't see anything But the texture will be clear as day)

E1M6 Test Version 6 (1,413KB 1.37MB)
Pretty Much The whole map is viewable
But certain parts aren't lit, so don't get lost
A lot of the lights have just been copied and over sized for times sake
But it will be changed tomorrow as I go through each room one at a time
There could be a few Test Versions tomorrow as the level reaches it's final stages
Older Test Versions of E1M5 have been taken down from webs.com to make space for these newer versions
There is still filefactoy links I believe
But if you want to view them if you haven't already
download them now
Because I may have to take them down tomorrow
I have back ups for myself which I may make into a pack to put on file factory
Ps don't use the file factory download manager

If all goes well today, I may have a complete layout for E1M6 done tonight
so keep an eye out for a new Test Version
ps the reason everything is all bold now for the past wile is because "webs.com" sort of sucks
and it wont let me unbold anything. The last update that couldn't be bolded when I wanted to was "21/11/2013"
for Alpha Version 0.82
But aww well

Expect a concept version of my Rage Project idea soon
Once I finish off the Doom Reborn mod i'll be starting my project on Rage
This will be training for me, But hopefully my idea comes together.
What I've done with E1M8 already plays a small part of my intensions of what I hope to be able to achieve with the idTech5 Engine. (Without giving to much away)
It will be a remake of the first episode of Doom1 still. Not exactly like doom1 which Doom Reborn aims to be

E1M5 Test Version 5
Got all monsters triggerd besides for the ones on the lift in the yellow room that I forgot about. Will probably fine tune the triggering after play testing it a few times myself lol
I'm aware the lift on the right in the yellow room isn't working it's a simple fix I've been meaning to sort out for to long now but I keep over looking because i'm focusing on other things that need done lol
I'll be doing a final level release in a couple of days before I do the next alpha release. I'll probably call it a beta beacuse i'll have time to make fixes if I/yous find any.
Hope you's enjoy

Rage Tool Kit is now on steam
I Intend on looking into it, I have mine downloaded now but fails to load for the time being, Tomb Raider has also been released which im sure you's all
know so I was playing through it as well this month,
Work has not stopped, It was my birthday this month so I took some time off for that, And im also sick with the cold atm,
Im Finishing off the outside secret area and then placing the EasterEgg room somewhere, then i'll be ready to start patching the other levels.
With Alpha 0.82 I will be improving the lights in all levels.
Im sick of random shadows in all the other levels.
Also i may include the High Quality Mod's i'm using on my computer, I have a improved shaders mod up ress textures and smooth models
The shaders mod works with Doom Reborn and i believe other tweaks from the other mods have some effect on Doom Reborn as well.
So you's may want to look into them yourselfs.
I'll probably make 2 downloads. 1 With the other mods to install, And the other just Doom Reborn.
I'll also be releasing another Test version of E1M5 before 0.82
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Update: 20/02/2013
Alpha 0.82 is nearly ready
E1M5 is now around 80% finished just finishing off the last of the layout then just finish tweaking lights and adding monsters, items etc, which wont take to long, I'll will have another play test version up shortly for everyone to try.
Keep checking back for more news

Work is still underway
I'm working a part time job now and getting ready to move which has slowed me down a bit,
But I've still been working hard on E1M5 I have a new screen shot showing what's been done
Alpha 0.815 is near ready. It'll include a test build of E1M5, i'm trying to get the layout complete before 0.81 goes offline
0.815 will have a few small fixes in a few levels e.g MAP01 Chacater placements at the start of the level don't match exactly to the orginal level shot shown in the loading screen. + MAP03 now has the missing hole in the wall at the start of the level etc.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Update: 29/10/2012
Alpha 0.81 Released Hosted on File Factory (Download speed 100KBs-200KBs) I will be getting new hosts soon
IMPORTANT: Ensure you have Doom 3 Version 1.3.1 installed. The update button in Doom 3 on the main menu will not get you this version. You can download it Here (MegaGames)
If you tried to load the mod on version 1.3 the gamex86.dll has probably been replaced with version 1.3's
Install version 1.3.1, go to the "Doom 3" folder and open the "base" folder and copy "gamex86.dll" and replace the one in the "doomreborn" folder. And right click the new "gamex86.dll" and click properties and tick "Read Only" and click apply This will solve many issues e.g health villas and armor shards not working or not going above 100health
There is No support for BFG Edition yet maybe in the future.
I will need to remove write protection on "Fs_Game" or by Adding a selection for Doom Reborn on the title screen. But before I can do that I need a way to extract and repack the .resources files betheseda has so kindly packed everything in. (sarcasm)
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I've taken this upon myself to finish the mod, I left the team back in 2007-08 to finish tech work and when i returned to help the team out again it was dead and everyone left to do other things since we do have lives to.
Development takes a long time, im using the mod for practice again for Rage's upcoming editor that we where promised, id let us down on rage's release but it'll come (hopefully)
With Doom3 BFG edition coming I intend on making sure this mod will be compatable as long as id haven't locked the editor and mod compatablity if they have i'll be growing ever more concerned about id's future since the time it would take to lock all of its old features just to ensure we can't mod it. Also because Brink, and Rage, Where promised to be released with the idtech 5 editor on launch. But that never happened.
I did open the rage.exe with resource hacker and found the editor but i don't have the skill to make it usable i just know its there. You can check for yourself.
But anyway
Im hosting the mod on this site until and maybe after i get back on d3fiies\ Doom3.filefront.com these days.
