I've been seeing a general disdain towards the entire Fandom wiki spectrum lately... could somebody explain to me what the seemingly sudden hatred towards these sites stems from?
13:12-13:30 - fun fact: this trick was already used in such an old wad as Return to Phobos by Michael Kelsey published in 1994; that was very beginning of doom mapping.
I never noticed the blood spreading with Boom and other ports! The crusher door trick also feels like a single-player version of the 100+ player event way back when. Crunchy indeed.

@@knotbotsFirst and foremost: the ads. It makes news sites more browseable than fandom because of the overuse of screen real estate especially on mobile.

The most horrifying thing is in the SNES version if get crushed the screen turns completely bloody red you probably thought you died instantly but miraculously you survive. But only if your HP is at least above 90%.
@@animekawaiichan9399 To be fair, back in the day it was impressive and quite a technical achievement to see it running on the SNES, but even then it was one of the worst looking ports of Doom. Framerate it's atrocious, enemies don't have rotation (they were always facing you), severe input lag, no saves or password system which was a terrible idea considering that Doom was quite a long game. If I remember correctly, the final episode only appears when you play on Nightmare or something like that.
This video gets released, 2 weeks later loads of maps released with crazy crusher tricks Always found it funny how Doom Guy can get squished to 6 inches and survive as long as he was crushed fast. When he's crushed slowly he refuses to bend his knees and so lets himself die
12:51 I believe the crazy Crusher jerking was used on MAP01 of Icarus to give the appearance of the shuttle engines firing up. Interesting trick, but takes some finesse to use.
This is accidental complexity. They coded the animation types they needed for their game. If you want a different one you code it. It only becomes deep when you limit yourself from changing the code.
9:20 Double Impact's E1M8 flashbacks. That map requires you to press a series of switches that crush off-screen barons, which in turn open the exit. Now I understand why I got softlocked.
14:32. You could make self exploding barrels that start when you walk into a hallway, and have the door close behind you, forcing you to run for dear life. Kinda like barrels o' fun, minus the hell knights.
Another fun trick you can do with crushers: You can park monsters in sectors with a ceiling set to lower. That sector is joined with an off map sector adjacent to an active crusher. In that crusher you place a keen. By using this trick you can create a monster kill lock for monsters other than Mancs and Aracnotrons on Map 7. This can be used to activate a voodoo doll closet or just open a door that only works when whatever monsters you have set up this way are killed. A few limitations: The sectors generally need to be small, and other entities need to be kept out of those sectors. Also, the ceiling is going to end up the same height as the monster and will visibly lower when the monster is killed.
Awesome video, I'd never seen those mapping tricks before. Here's another interesting interaction relating to crushed corpses. If you trigger the zombie bug using a voodoo doll and exit the map with 0% health, you will start the next map in an already dead state. You can still use switches and doors in this state so go find a door or crushing ceiling - or even a lift if you can get caught between 2 sectors as it raises - and turn yourself into a crushed corpse. You can now walk through walls and enemies lol. Ksutra map 22 is an easy place to set this up - TNTEM at the start, jump through a window to teleport to the weird non-secret voodoo doll, trigger the zombie bug, then idclip to the exit. Map 23 starts with a door right in front of you, so stand underneath it to trigger the glitch. Unfortunately this map uses a walkover linedef exit so you can't exit it, but you would be able to exit on a switch or special damaging floor.
15:02 "The crusher will go through all the blocks in the grid looking for things to crush" Imagine a horror game in which you tries to escape from a crusher that wander the area looking for things to crush
I love the "Analysis 10" track and hope that its MIDI sequence (or at least an isolated recording) releases soon! edit: How did I not notice that decino actually did it!? You also get the MIDI sequences! Worth the €4+ price tag
4:44 I think one of the most underappreciated aspects of programming is how clever reuse of things can save time and hassle. The designer (I believe MAP04 is a McGee level) wanted oscillating windows, so they just used the crushers instead of making a new sector type, and just gave it a different noise.
I'm almost certain that you could probably recreate doom in its entirety by just watching decino videos and copy pasting all the code he keeps showing.
Super thrilled to see you make one of these more technical videos again. I appreciate how thorough everything is, I can't imagine how long it must have taken to make this. I think this one might be your best videos of this type yet, awesome work! Lots of great jokes and visuals as well. I dealt with the softlock at 3:06 on my most recent challenge attempt on multiple tries.
now that I think about, I don't think I've used crushers in a vanilla map outside of crushing barrels to push voodoo dolls over lines to do more actions from a single switch I need to make a map with actual crushers sometime
13:13 This seems like it could be used to simulate a 'broken' door in Vanilla Doom, where you want someone to be able to see through the gap but not be able to fit through it. It's great at this, since the door would randomly stop at different points and would never be able to open all the way.
When I was studying programming to finish my Diploma in IT, I had Python open on one monitor, and I was watching all your DOOM videos on the other, and while I was inputting else if code into my programming assessment, I was following along the code you were displaying in your DOOM videos on how everything works. Your videos are interesting to watch, while learning how a game works, and how it manages to calculate all this code many times a second.
Outside of the IWADS the most infamous floor crusher is from Scythe's Run From It, activated either by leaving the first room or from entering through the Blue Key door

The Cyber Demon is the tallest enemy. So, is there a scenario where the crusher will already be slowed down before it starts crushing him? I would think the only way to slow it down before making contact with the Cyber Demon would be to have a taller enemy next to him in the crusher.
Crushers in Doom escape the "chunky salsa rule". They deal fixed damage no matter the physical compression you'd expect, so they aren't lethal despite seeming like they'd reduce you to chunky salsa when hitting the bottom. And then there are the ACS-fueled crushers in Hexen... Those _do_ obey the chunky salsa rule, to scary effect 🫣 13:06 "Nothing" is not true. Using "negative crushers" is usable when you want to emulate a constant drone in vanilla Doom without resorting to custom sounds and DeHackEd entities, like in Icarus Alien Vanguard map01. It creates a pretty convincing "idle engine" effect. 13:07 That was used in Memento Mori 2 map06 to simulate a malfunctioning door. I remember that really well, not in the least because the map is _titled_ Frustration, and that door is FRUSTRATING. Prime example of a bad design idea executed well.
Indeed, easy idle engine sfx Bad design is relative; if that map was *designed* to be frustrating, then a thus-created malfunctioning door is a rather creative way of going about tormenting the player.
In all fairness, they're not the only thing that ignores the chunky salsa rule. Realistically, a direct hit from a rocket launcher _should_ blast the Doomguy apart, but it's perfectly survivable with enough health and armor.
@@LonelySpaceDetective I disagree. A rocket of low enough yield can be conceivably shrugged off with plenty of scorch marks. Can't say the same about a crusher literally invading the sprite of the entity.
Holy heck, that was a _lot_ of stuff about crushers I didn't know! Well done, Decino. I especially liked the section on map making tricks. Loved the humor in it too. (Fandom/Group F) 😁
Nice video, very informative! The crushed player corpse noclipping thing is definitely a d5da map I haven't seen yet. Btw if you like these kind of obscure doom jank, don't know if you've heard about this yet but there's a pretty recently discovered bug that instantly sets a corpse to it's spawn state without any actual archvile resurrection that creates a ghost monster of some sort even in boom and mbf21, which involves a lost soul attacking an archvile which then checks for ressurectable corpses and finds a corpse that is almost ressurectable but fails the last condition of checkposition, the check that overwrites a global variable (tmthing) to point to that corpse which was previously meant to point to the lost soul, after which the code that's meant to reset the lost soul to its spawn state and set the momentum to zero instead sets the corpse state to spawn state so now you have a zero health invincible corpse chasing you around that you can only "kill" by crushing it into a 0 height crushed corpse only if it wasn't already crushed (in which case it would be actual invincible and also clips through walls), I thought that's pretty cool, might make for a fun short analysis video.
Slow crushers may be the most casually malicious mechanic I've ever seen, especially in combination with the various mapping tricks and hacks you can utilize to make them do even worse things than they do normally
11:36 Maybe not intentional, but it does give a good effect, like they're just being slowly juiced of their blood from the crusher as opposed to having their blood splattered everywhere.
amazing that you're 5 years into these yellow background videos and we're still getting really great + useful number-crunching info out of these that undoubtedly help people both improve their gameplay and their map design. love your videos man
If you need a crusher for the Cyberdemon, there’s the Doom 2 master level called “Bad Dream” that actually requires it. It’s a tough level, but interesting to check out.

The biggest surprise for me was just how few crushers there are in the original Dooms, given they're so iconic.

Only the floor ones. It should've kept doing damage so long as the gap is smaller than the model height, like the ceiling crushers.

Still learning about the OG Doom engine, in 2024. It's remarkable how much depth that engine has.

13:05 allow a view into a secret area to encourage a player to find a way in. Thats one way to use it.
Nice video, very informative! The crushed player corpse noclipping thing is definitely a d5da map I haven't seen yet.
Btw if you like these kind of obscure doom jank, don't know if you've heard about this yet but there's a pretty recently discovered bug that instantly sets a corpse to it's spawn state without any actual archvile resurrection that creates a ghost monster of some sort even in boom and mbf21, which involves a lost soul attacking an archvile which then checks for ressurectable corpses and finds a corpse that is almost ressurectable but fails the last condition of checkposition, the check that overwrites a global variable (tmthing) to point to that corpse which was previously meant to point to the lost soul, after which the code that's meant to reset the lost soul to its spawn state and set the momentum to zero instead sets the corpse state to spawn state so now you have a zero health invincible corpse chasing you around that you can only "kill" by crushing it into a 0 height crushed corpse only if it wasn't already crushed (in which case it would be actual invincible and also clips through walls), I thought that's pretty cool, might make for a fun short analysis video.
Slow crushers may be the most casually malicious mechanic I've ever seen, especially in combination with the various mapping tricks and hacks you can utilize to make them do even worse things than they do normally
The video: is about Doom crushers.
The Patreon names: funny innuendos. 🤣
Those little editing bits actually caught me off guard and gave me some laughs without distracting from the info. These are so well made!
Yay, new yellow-background thumbnail
O BOY, WHAT A DAY, A 17 MINUTE LONG DECINO VIDEO
OMG I MADE A VERY SMALL CAMEO!!!! :3333
0:39, you can see me editing one of my user pages.
Happy to see a new yellow-thumbnail video from ya, Decino! I can feel my Doombrain soaking up all the informational videos you make :)
0:01 everything in doom hates you accept for your clones (who don't even appear ingame accept plutonia)
11:36 Maybe not intentional, but it does give a good effect, like they're just being slowly juiced of their blood from the crusher as opposed to having their blood splattered everywhere.
Ahh yes, a document of art and quality 🍷🗿
Especially with that yellow background 🍷🗿
amazing that you're 5 years into these yellow background videos and we're still getting really great + useful number-crunching info out of these that undoubtedly help people both improve their gameplay and their map design. love your videos man
I'm a simple girl, I see yellow thumbnail, I click.
If you need a crusher for the Cyberdemon, there’s the Doom 2 master level called “Bad Dream” that actually requires it. It’s a tough level, but interesting to check out.
What's the midi that starts at 0:55? Is there a link?
00:19 bottom left corner. There will be a link to an album when the remaining 2 MIDIs are finished.
