Its a 2D wad (I know how much you hate those) of Srb1.

Here are some screenshots

Beta 3 without srb1 sonic
MAIN SERVER (Flat File Host)
Mirror 1 (Sendspace)
Mirror 2 (Thanks to Tails92 for this link)

Changes in beta 3:
- Supports Coop and Race modes
- Fixed colormap glitch in Lake Zone
- Rings in Lake Zone Act 1
- Added *Really* Unfinished LZ2 and IP1
- Midis from the original game
- Most importantly the original srb1 sonic!
 
This is good. I recommend adding a bit more scenery, though. And tag GFZGRASS as the Upper texture, and tag Upper Unpegged on grassy floor sectors. It would help a bit.
 
I was going to add scenery and stuff later, I am more concerned about layouts. I am not sure if I like the GFZGRASS texture, I will try it out.

I am sorry about forcing sonic, but it was the only playable character in SRB1 (except for a few levels). I will have to figure out how to disable character abilities (thoking), and then I will give you (plural) the other levels I worked on.
 
Actually, I think it would be a bit more interesting if you took out FORCESKIN. It might be fun to play as someone else.
 
Check out the update, I am very open to new suggestions.
Oh, I didn't add scenery, but I did take out FORCESKIN for now.
 
All right, FORCESKIN is still on in this, at least for map 1. I did like the design of Lake zone, but it needs rings. >.< And Act 2 of Knothole has a REDWALL. Nad COLORMAP isn't applying completely in Lake Zone. But this really is looking good right now.
 
Opps, sent the wrong version, oh I can't figure out why the colormap thing happens in GL mode. It works in software mode though. Lake zone still has no rings in this one.

Edit: Opps again, I clicked on Report file for breaking rules on flatfilehost by accident (I hate not having a mouse for my labtop). So I sent it on Sendspace.
 
I should also mention you should use the original songs in this. It would make it feel more authentic. ;)
 
I don't know, most of the songs (if not all of them) came from commercial games. I don't think its a good idea because of copyright stuff. Then again, I am not making anyone pay for this.
 
Good work!
It's very good for a first wad, seeing as most first wads are only cheap Sonic recolors.
Oh, and I've always liked SRB1.

Screw that, if it's ok for it to have it in SRB1, why not in SRB2?
 
If you could point me out to a good music ripper, I might put in the original songs (not from the commercial game versions the srb1 ones).

Are their any other suggestions regarding layout/graphics before I start on new levels?

So far I got
-Fix graphical glitch in Lake Zone for Open GL
-Add scenery
-Add Rings in Lake Zone
 
You don't need to rip the songs. Google will come up with the original MP3s of each of the SRB1 songs. I know because I have virtually all of the music from the Sonic games...Just forget the SRB1-specific ones. >.<
 
I would like a list of the songs and which level they correspond with. The original game is so glitchy, that I don’t want to play through all the levels again.
 
It's actually possible to rip the MIDIs from SRB1.
Back in December, I wrote a midi extractor for KNP/TGF files.
It was very buggy, but at least it worked.
Anyway, I've lost it, but I can try to rewrite it.
 
I would be interested if you can write the midi extractor, but if you don't I will go to plan B and find the songs myself.

Progress is going very slowly now, I haven't touched doombuilder in a while, but the good news is I *can* start today on making levels and such.
 
Thank you very much tails92.

Progress:
I figured out how to fix the colormap problem in Lake zone.
I also started on Ice palace.

I think I will release only one more beta, and then the final version, which will be a long time from now.
