Well, I'd explain, but since you can't even read the forum rules, why bother?

Not technically possible, look at another engine.

Um... draw it, import, draw areas..?

Or you could, if some Doom source port allows it, clip outside of the level and take ovehead screenshots with the void drawn as a solid color instead of HOM...

I like you, cause apparently you're from Maryland, as am I.
This AGS engine is mostly for making 2-D adventure games. To even get near a Doom-like game, it will take a lot of scripting, and the new 3D module that has just been worked on. It's tough work. This engine was not built for 3d games, nor really to make a FPS.

and really, why did you originally post this in the completed games forum?

whenever you go to new forums, you should always read their: "Read first before posting" threads. It will save you a lot of trouble when joining a new community. We're glad to have you, but we'd be even happier if you took the time and effort to read over the forum rules and Frequently asked questions, and of course, the ags manual/help file.

AGS ain't your cup of anything, use teh Google, it will lead you to some other place where you can practice that attitude (or read the rules 'round here, and live by them). This forum is about adventure games mainly, and AGS is for making adventure games, not FPSs.

But if you're dead serious about making an FPS in AGS, go read the scripting tutorial and start pondering. The manual is there to help you. You will need a load of knowledge in C or C++, anyhow, to get something actually done.

As always, if you ask something a bit more complicated or advanced, the answer echoes: script it.

Adventure games or not... they cannot be made with AGS

Not to start a nitpicking party, but Quake and CounterStrike are not adventure games. They are first person shooters, which are extremely difficult to re-create in AGS. There are many other engines out there, some for free, that can replicate the type of game that you want, a lot easier than AGS.

Your logic is flawless. For example, any driving game where you collect nitro-boosters is now an adventure game. Heck, in Tetris, you collect lines... Adventures games aren't dying! They're everywhere, man.
