Hey y'all! I am Fairweather, and I make singleplayer levels for Quake, Team Fortress 2 and Doom!

Here's some of my work, I typically focus on encounter design, but here's some pretty visuals to catch your eye. Reposts appreciated.

Oh damn, thanks for putting me on to the Static Rifle. I don't know how it works in practice, but having to hit shots mid RJ or Bhop would be sick for an arena shooter weapon.

Doom 2016 had a pretty sub-par score-attack mode.

Neat. I do wonder why there's a Teen rating limitation, though.

Have a new Quake pack: High Seas! A cleaned up and hugely expanded version of the pirate themed textures I made for my old Remix Jam map I Shot The Albatross.

I try to be a happy-go-lucky kinda guy these days but seeing people feverishly try to defend the use of AI in art and modding communities specifically because they're "here to stay" pushes my fuckin' buttons. Have a backbone.

That being said, the most iconic textures from E1 / Start.bsp are brown metal, brown bricks, brown bricks again, tan bricks, and brown rock so I can see how folks got the idea lmao

That's a misconception tbh. I don't think there's much more brown in the Q1 palette vs any other retro fps palette.

the screenshots shouldn't surprise me but the audacity is nuts to me. supporting the genocidal settler colony because they're slipping you a crisp lincoln is fucking nuts

This is why I can't do it, man. I wish I had the wherewithal to stick with it for longer than 2 weeks before I find some unfixable problem that drives me up the wall.

No other hero shooter or moba has come up with a charcter design as cool as Wraith, a telekinetic mob boss who ALWAYS has her hands in her pockets, and uses telekinetic prosthetics to fire her guns.

Lmao I love how much this gets around given that the whole pack is a speedmap shitpost that took us like 3hrs to put together. someone had to really know ball to find this.

Quake done Quick using the Bonk Jam mod mechanics! Very happy to see the speedunning community eating the game up with the mod, it's all I could have asked for.

Yeah. If I go somewhere and die, I wanna be able to turn heel and explore elsewhere. Having to retrace my steps constantly is very annoying.
