>>2215294

The black vipers? Yeah I don't think I'll have any sort of allies in GMOTA, so if it moves I'd advise you to shoot and/or sword the fuck out of it.

>>2215291
>transparent pixels

>>2215302

On the sword? Yeah I could probably do with cleaning them up more but to be fair who the fuck plays this on anything but GZdoom?

Hey Terminus, Kharon drains souls from killing dudes because it's a demonic weapon, right?
Why does Iron Maiden?
Also how do souls regenerate when you're out?

Tell me /doom/

What's 'The Right Thing'?

>>2215306

You punch demons so hard their soul leaves their body.

>>2215306

That's...a good question.
It's tempting to go with >>2215312's answer, but for some reason I'm not 100% happy with it. I'll need to think about this.

As for why the soul meter regenerates when you're out, it's because the last two notches is Hae-Lin's own soul.

Fuck DECORATE inheritance. A_Jump does not work if it points at a state if it's not redefined in the child actor.

So I was playing on a random Zandronum server and then got kicked for user info change flood

I rejoined but I couldn't hear sounds, couldn't turn, and my movement was based on mouse movement as was really wonky. I proceeded to get auto kicked again. This is now happening on every server I join

What gives?

>>2215369
ive been getting auto kicked too with no reason given, it comes in waves.

>>2215295
good luck the coding is crap

>>2215373
yeah I wouldn't really care but I literally can't play on any server now due to the fucked up controls

zandronum itself works fine but joining through doomseeker seems to fuck something up

>>2215378
Yeah best solution I can give is too switch to Odamex and look for similar servers.

>>2215369
>and then got kicked for user info change flood

This means that something on your client is constantly changing something in either your customizable controls or your player setup.
Do you have anything in your skins folder?

>>2215340
Here's how it works:

A_Jump and derivatives will always go to the most recently inherited state as per the chain of inheritance for that particular actor. It doesn't need to be defined in the calling actor to work though, so long as some state is defined somewhere in the chain of inheritance. That is, if such an actor doesn't exist in the actor the state originated in but is defined in an actor that inherits from the original actor, the jump will work in the inheriting actor (not the original actor.) If you're using one of the recent SVNs it will give you an error on startup but will still run and it won't cause issues in game if the original actor does not appear in the game.

Goto will always go to the state in the actor that it appears in, even if the state is later redefined. If such a state does not exist in the actor, it will go to an inherited one that is inherited prior in the chain of inheritance to the actor with the "goto" in its states, but not if the state appears later in the chain of inheritance from the original actor the goto appeared in.

(continued)

>>2215412
>>2215340
In Zandronum there's a slight difference from ZDoom when it comes to non-check A_Jump states; that is, things that aren't A_JumpIf or A_JumpIfInventory, etc, and are just A_Jump(###. The difference is that they don't happen if other states occur right after. I forget the exact reason but it has to do with how much information the client has compared to the server about things (which is done to reduce the bandwidth of netplay.)

So in ZDoom:

Death:
POSS A 0 A_Jump(256,"Death1","Death2","Death3")
Goto Death1

The actor would have an equal chance of ending up in Death1, Death2, or Death2. In Zandronum (off and online) they would instead end up in Death1 100% of the time. Note that the Goto Death1 is actually unnecessary, but most people do such things anyway as a "just in case." Also note that even if that "Goto Death1" was not there and instead replaced with the rest of the Death1 state (or another state), or a state fall through, etc, it would still skip the jump and behave like it wasn't there and go do whatever else. To fix this you have to instead do either this:

Death:
POSS A 0 A_Jump(256,"Death1","Death2","Death3")
Wait

or this:

Death:
POSS A 0 A_Jump(256,"Death1","Death2","Death3")
POSS A 1 A_Jump(256,"Death1","Death2","Death3")
Loop

and then it would behave the same as above in Zandronum. Note that even though the second state has a 1 tic frame in the state it never actually takes 1 tic for the jump to take place.

>>2215307
The way the rendering proceded from walls to floors to sprites could be collapsed into a single front-to-back walk of the bsp tree to collect information, then draw all the contents of a subsector on the way back up the tree. It requires treating floors and ceilings as polygons, rather than just the gaps between walls, and it requires clipping sprite billboards into subsector fragments, but it would be The Right Thing.

>>2215403
Maybe, I reinstalled zandronum completely and now it's back to normal

>>2215414

Thanks ijon?.
Why is this nowhere explained in great detail?

>>2215443
I think the general stuff is on the zdoom wiki on the states page (if not then it should be) and the zandro-specific stuff was mentioned in the forums by Torr and others but AFAIK it's not anywhere else.
Not ijon, he's still on indefinite hiatus unfortunately for us.

Heh, makes me wonder if they're actually hiding their power levels, because what are the odds of them choosing the exact same stock sounds? There's gotta be hundreds of "blade slicing air" sounds.

>>2215715
huhuhu, what an mess

>>2215589
great, thanks for the link

it's weird how they used sounds effects from the original doom games and the rest from doom 3 (and never admitting the doom they use for illustrations is actually doom 3)

maybe jewimax gave them some directions and the mythbusters guys decided to add a little twist because they are (original) doom fans

rip GMOTA shield

IN THE AAARRRRRMMMMSS OF AN AAAAANNNGGEELLLL

>>2215749
I dont get it.

And what happened to HexenAnon?

>>2215750

allow me to explain:

I've been unhappy with the shield since day one of implementing it, and I've finally decided to get around to finally doing something about it, which is pretty fucking drastic: I'm removing it and bringing the goddess bracelet back.

I'm bracing my anus because I guarantee there's gonna be a lot of salt over this

>>2215753

I give it three updates before you change your mind and bring it back.

>>2215761

I've seriously been unhappy with the shield since I first implemented it. I mean by default it works well enough, other than it broke the vanilla god spheres. But I can't think of anything of particular interest or usefulness for the POW'd up state, and its item crash was an asspull as best.

Plus it never felt truly necessary for lord blaz seeing as the guy is capable of clearing out rooms and has life steal on demand. This is a choice I don't take lightly anon.

>>2215589
If only the mythbusters crew could recreate the thing in Doom 2

>>2215765
>This is a choice I don't take lightly anon.

I guess you could say you were resistant to it

>>2215772

>>2215753
>bringing the goddess bracelet back

FINALLY!

>>2215789

All I need now is to figure out an item crash, a POW state


and a subweapon finisher because I'm planning a new mechanic to replace the ability to hold the fire button and throw the sword, instead if you hit altfire during a sword combo you'll use your current subweapon in some unique way

E1M1 has a dramatic change in monster count between HMP and UV. HMP has 6 monsters. UV has 29. One particularly noticable difference through gameplay is that UV has a whole bunch of shotgunners thrown in everywhere, where as HMP has none at all. All the other level ones in the iwads dont have such a dramatic difference.

>>2215820
I always felt the shotgunners took away the incentive behind the shotgun secret.

>>2215589

>>2215812
Shouldn't you focus on actually finishing GMOTA before going to implement new (and cool) mechanics? Or does that new thing will be usable with the other characters?

>>2216082
>on actually finishing GMOTA
I don't understand, anon.
I'm pretty sure this is what he's doing.

>>2216220
What I meant is that mechanic is not necessary I think to the completion of GMOTA. Just my opinion. Notice that I asked about it too.

dat awkward silence tho

>>2216236
i agree, someone responding to someone else is awkward silence

>>2215572
What was the point of making the map in Doom 3

om nom nom

>>2216351

dammit why is your art so cute

>>2216298
i gave up mapping after i realised software like oblige had reached a point where it could churn out better maps in seconds than it would take me hours or even days to make. i like making layouts to fight monsters in, but texturing and detailing is boring. i wish you could feed a layout into oblige and have it prettify it for you.

>>2216356
Are you aware of prefabs?

Just add prefabs to your maps, its like a section or detail of a map that is purely aesthetic.

You may notice maps recently have similar looking details, and its more than likely the utilization of prefabs.

I don't map, but I am familiar with this concept. Go see if you can't find any downloads of some prefabs for the theme you want.

As for oblige, try to find what oblige is missing and let that inspire a map for you. Just be inspired. Megawads throughout history have always been inspired by their predecessors.

Don't gibe up I beleb in u!

>>2216351
Everyone draws Hae-Lin as a cutie instead of a badass demon slayer.
I don't mind, though.

>>2216356
>oblige
>producing anything of quality

Oblige produces the same thing for every change in each variable. It's extremely boring to be able to predict where secrets are at because of how predictable the map generation is. The larger the level the more of a clusterfuck it becomes with several of the same rooms all plastered around each other.

It has no unique building or style. By default, anything you made, that you put your heart into, would be better than something OBLIGE spat out. I feel like I'm still extremely green at mapping (for Doom at least), and I know that what I make is fresher than the stale OBLIGE generation; even if it can be janky as fuck.

>texturing and detailing is boring
Texturing like just slapping textures on stuff and making sure it has a consitent style, or do you mean like properly aligning textures so they don't look like shit? Same with detailing, I don't quite know what you mean by "detailing," but if you don't get a sense of satisfaction from putting the puzzle together then it's understandable. I just spend enough time so things are lined up and don't clash.

You're right. The only reason why I was thinking about adding this mechanic is to replace the sword throw thing. But I'll put this off for later. Right now I need to focus on finishing and polishing current mechanics.

Huh, I'm surprised she didn't draw anything Brutal Doom or Samsara related.

Anyone got a link to her tumblr? I can't seem to find it and I don't want to sign up to access it.

>>2216925

I don't think she has one. I think she only has a twitter and a pixiv

>>2216920
Brootal doom is ignored for obvious reasons, no content besides the gallons of blood.
Alice usually likes to draw specially awesome architecture and cool characters but BD doesn't add any of that.
About Samsara... maybe she thinks drawing Douk is a bad idea or something.

>>2216925
I don't think she has a tumblr, better just look in her's pixiv.

What does the pisswhiskey do in Trailblazer?

>>2217067

It's a portable medikit.

I've been playing Marathon for the first time, and I have to say, it's a lot of fun.
But you really take for granted the speed of Doom's elevators. I don't know how long I've been waiting for lifts in Marathon.

>>2217109
yeah i've always felt like marathon has a really slow pace in general coming from doom but i really like it because it seems to a) make things vaguely spookier and b) make you seem more badass when you maneuver well

>>2217109
I like marathon over doom.
The atmosphere is simply top notch, and you are constantly spooked even without rivers of blood. It feels more "hard" in general-- the weapons have dry sounds, the enemies die quickly and without much of a scandal, and Durandal is one of my three favorites IAs in games, the others being Shodan and Glados.
Just out of morbid curiosity, is there fanfiction about Durandal, Shodan and Glados being fuckers together?

Is it normal for the guards in the town to start shooting at you at the start of Strife? i felt like i did something wrong and now there is dozens of them running around and i can't get anywhere

>>2217272

If you kill people, yes.
I know, it's painful, but you'll have to hold your trigger finger.

>>2217272
From what I remember, they'll only start doing that if you fire a weapon or attack anyone in the town. I think they'll also go after you if you take that one dudes quest that's a trap.

>>2217272
You gotta avoid making noise or indiscriminately killing people, if you go shooting your gun in town it'll raise the alarms in that map.

>>2217265
She runs around and does a lot of extremely physical stuff, ensuring she stays slim and thin, but eats a whole ton of junkfood so all of the fat probably goes straight to her hips and breasts.

>>2217260
I think you goofed up the runes mean, there. Those ones say "paripari." The runes for puripuri are "プリプリ." Saying them out loud, I can see how paripari can be that sound effect, though. Saying it over and over, it starts to turn into rip-a-rip-a-rip-a-rip.

If she's very active and athletic, I don't think she'd gather that much fat actually, if you exercise and train a lot, you can actually eat a lot of junk food without getting fat. There's plenty of fat foods that otherwise contain a lot of nutrients, minerals, vegetables, meat and other protein, etc, pizza for instance, or hamburgers, ramen can also be made with all sorts of things.

Do you think she has a thigh gap?

>>2217294
Ah damn, you're right, well I'm embarrassed now.

>>2217308
Eh, don't worry about it. I just use google translate to make the runes for me if I ever need to write them, so I'd probably have made the same mistake if I used something else.

Well I think that's the POW effect for the bracelet settled

>>2217504
Are the extra shots going to be able to destroy projectiles too?

>>2217509

Yes. so pretty much if you fire this into crowds, you're untouchable

>>2217510
Okay.

Question: Why would I want any other subweapon?

>>2217515

Because without a POW it has mediocre damage and range.

and the POW system will soon be getting tweaked where stronger projectiles and melee attacks will take your POW away.

>>2217520
Will it still delete projectiles without POW?

It was my favorite weapon for Slaughtermaps because of the defense it offered

>>2216837
>asian grill
>cute
>plays doom

How can these goddamn 3 things come accordingly?

>>2217536

Yes. That's the core mechanic of the bracelet, and it's even more necessary seeing as the shield is gone.

>>2217568
I haven't played GMOTA in awhile so I have a few questions.

1) Are POW weapons really that strong to overshadow a projectile that deletes other projectiles?
This is just a really important thing to consider.

2) Are Item crashes stronger?
When I last played I felt the consistent and reliable power combined with the defensive use made the Goddess Bracelet one of the strongest weapons, if not the best one.

I stopped playing around exactly when the Goddess Bracelet was removed
And I haven't played GMOTA because I was waiting for the version with the new character, rather than getting upset the Bracelet was gone

>>2217616
bracelet is back

>>2217489
yes that's the point. i intended with the filename My Wad Backlog.jpg to lament the size of my wad backlog and that something else just got added to it. you got completely the wrong idea, it wasn't an attack. i am sorry.

I don't get how Daedalus was a sequel to Icarus. The atmosphere and gameplay is more akin to Hexen and Eternal Doom.

I always wish Icarus instead had a Boom compatible sequel with MBFs Sky transfers to take advantage of the ship/planet/simulation theming.

>>2217659
I wouldnt mind a boom compatible spiritual successor to Icarus. Though it'd need to be more challenging. The only truly difficult levels in Icarus were 25 and 28, with everything else ranging from easy-medium difficulty.

>>2217692
A megawad with Icarus level themes and musical style, and Plutonia's challenging gameplay could be awesome.

>>2217616

1) Yes. POW lances pick up speed rapidly and do crazy damage, you three daggers at a time when POW'd up so you can lay out DPS like fucking crazy, POW torches shit fire and brimstone everywhere, etc.

2) Making them stronger, and they'll be using something other than mana soon. so I might actually buff them a little more.

>>2217616
>>2217707

also for balance sake I might tweak the stamina requirements for the goddess bracelet

specifically make it so you need over a half bar to fire it, but when fire it always consumes a full bar, lowering the weapon's rate of fire

that and for fairness sake I'm basing the goddess bracelet off the one in Super GnG where you could have one shot on the screen at any given time, but I cheated it made it a weird hybrid of Super GnG's goddess bracelet and Ghouls n' Ghosts' psycho cannon which allowed two shots.

>>2215753
Hi, random anon here who has been giving blunt and extremely helpful criticism (your own words) on every idea since sword waves were a thing.

Let me get this straight :
You were unhappy with the shield OPness since day 1, but kept buffing its relative worth to other subweapons with the insane versatility of shield dashing and free discs of repulsion from POW (and holding sword combos with it too, but that is a bug apparently), while torches and hatchets keep getting worse?
You feel that Invulnerability on demand was always horribly broken, but motherfucking shinning knight popped up ages after the shield and lets you go through forced-death-via-barrels exits unscathed and take like 5 damage from rockets in the face?
Not to mention a small invulnerability is only broken because you insist on making enemies weaker (hitscan was overall harder to deal with, massive steel duke nerf, shitty ass revenants that kill themselves, armor buffs on top of vampiric and virtually costless projectiles to make small fights meaningless while big ones were already a cakewalk when spending mana).

The removal of the shield already means a 50% cut in fun on my favorite mod, specially since there were a million ways to fix it without entirely removing it (a simple mana cost for regular shield usage would do), but at this point I've lost all hope of this shit ever getting balanced. Every patch breaks more than it balances and I have no idea how anyone could glance at the original rocket lance damage and v0.9.7's homing sword throw and not see a problem immediately.
From the little revealed the bracelet will outclass every other sub as well, even if the POWless version did 0 damage.

Oh well, thanks for the heads up, I guess. Its nice to know that despite listening and debating over every minute change, you still manage to be the kind of guy who wakes up one day and decides to randomly butcher his mod with no feedback taken whatsoever.

I dont think my butt will ever recover.

TOWN.WAD - http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/?id=555

interesting as one of a handful of maps that relies on doom v1.2 engine bugs. fortunately the affected yellow key is unnecessary to finish the map, although irritating if you want 100% kills.

>>2218242

>someone else that disliked the shield

they DO exist

>>2218249

Another one here. I liked the shield in theory (I mean, knight with a sword and shield, right?), but it's boring as hell to just stand there blocking shit compared to how fun it is to actually deflect it with your own power.
I like cutting down projectiles in DemonSteele too.

>>2218239
That was only true with Gothic 2 and 99.

>>2218196
One thing I don't like about sunder-likes, is maps with the whole having a big group of monsters facing away from you and idling at the beginning.

I want more sunder-like maps where starting it immediately has enemies eyeballing you.

>>2218279
>I want more sunder-like maps where starting it immediately has enemies eyeballing you.
I like that Swift Death is pretty much designed around this. Though Swift Death isn't really slaughtery, either. More just hard cause theres monsters from all directions in tiny maps.

>>2218279
>I want more sunder-like maps where starting it immediately has enemies eyeballing you.

This is only acceptable when said enemies throw projectiles. It's 2015 and the idea of hitscanners greeting you at first sight is retarded

>>2218249
Another one reporting in. I'm in the same boat as >>2218263

>>2218263
Shield means you can afford to melee everything if you time your blocks perfectly.
If you "stand there blocking" instead of punching multiple archies to death, you're doing it incredibly wrong.

>>2218298
Hitscanners eyeballing you from the get go is very dickish. Especially if its chaingunners. Plutonia 2 was a bit guilty of having maps with exactly this.

But sunder-likes tend not to use hitscanners much.

>>2218279
They know you're there. If you listen closely you can hear the occasional snigger or knuckle-crack.

In all seriousness though perhaps the game should have been programmed so that monsters only wake up when you first move?

>>2218913
I wish the Doom community could figure out a way to give monsters better AI and a stealth system more than anything else. Is that sort of thing even possible with ACS or would it require a full source code rewrite?

>>2218930
>a stealth system
There is that Sneaky Doom mod that does a decent job at doing stealth I think.

>>2218913
Or they could've had it like duke3D where they'll wake up regardless of whether they're facing you or not, as long as there isnt any walls inbetween you and them.

>>2218936
THIS is what I wanted for my mod from the beginning!! God damn this is fun as fuck, I wonder if the author would give me permission to incorporate this fully into my mod?

>>2218930
wasn't mark working on something like that?

>>2218930
at the very least the increased CPU load would make highly populated maps unplayable, but more than that i fear "enhanced AI" is one of the, if not the, most effective way of making the game "not Doom" any more. i think one of the things that defines Doom is large numbers of enemies with very simple behaviour.

>>2218937
that would be a considerable buff to the enemies, but regardless, i believe the purpose of the field-of-monsters-facing-away-from-you setup is that the player is first allowed a look of the lie of the land, in order to have a moment to plan some strategy for attacking the monsters, which is a necessary step for beating the highest difficulty modern slaughter maps. in other words it's a gameplay over realism choice. if the monsters woke up immediately you'd have no chance to assess the situation and come up with a tactic to survive the initial onslaught, and the map would be frustrating as a result.

>>2218967
To me, the whole charm of Doom is just how goddamn flexible it is to different ideas. Having an enhanced AI wad wouldn't kill the Doom experience, it would just merely be something new to goof around with. I've heard this same argument about having guns that reload, zoom, and iron sight, and none of those lessened the experience for me in any way, just gave me a different set of toys. Doom should always be a toybox of fun.

>>2218971
I'm kinda with this guy. Shame my idea for a mod was way outside of my scope (brualdoomish kinda violence level, but with voxel enemies and pseudophysics.... Yeah, maybe possible, but not for me)

>>2218967
I still think its a very bland way to start a slaughtermap. I kinda miss Post Mortem styled maps, since they often started you with monsters in all directions eyeballing you as soon as you open a door, or go up/down a lift.

>>2219015
Newgothic map09 is a perfect example of what I don't like.

Are there any wads that go especially well with metroid dreadnought?

>>2219063
I honestly think Metroid Dreadnought would've been better as a TC, and not just a gameplay mod. Like have a large metroidvania hub for it.

http://news.sky.com/story/1420978/north-korea-threatens-us-with-final-doom

>the only people agreeing with this are the dirty peasants who didnt even think the shield was worth using to begin with

Isnt the next patch going to remove POW when getting hit? Just nerf pow slightly and switch the two functions around.
Regular shield would be a tiny shield bash almost identical to hexercise that reflects projectiles in front of you and only when POWered you can keep the shield raised to get a bit of invulnerability. Lifesteal on the cannon is not an issue anymore since you lose invulnerability button if you fuck up anyway and its not "on-demand" anymore either given how hard it would be to keep POW up.
Also hitting projectiles with a shield bash is definitively not boring and basically what the new "very short range and low damage" unpowered bracelet is trying to be.
There, I fixed the problem and made it more fun for everyone without forcing some to bleed from their private orifices.

>This is a choice I don't take lightly anon.
You posted on Jan 28 saying the shield dash would be the only item crash that would not use the new resource for sanic balance purposes. You basically said FUCK IT out of nowhere and scrapped everything without even trying to nerf the shield in any way whatsoever. It very much looks like a solution that you pulled out of your ass. Hopefully you can shove it right back before it begins to stink.

Your attitude is the only thing that's starting to stink here. I'm going to at the very least make this next version shield-less. If it truly is this big of an issue I'll consider bringing it back.

There's criticism and then there's flat out hostility. You've crossed that line, knock it off because you're really pissing me off now.

>>2219685
The guy makes some points. Seems silly to get buttblasted because he pointed out that you're flip-flopping on some of your design choices and that the move was ass.

Harsh criticism =/= hostility, unless your skin is paper thin. I liked the shield too, and for those who did like it, you simply removing it (without even trying to balance it) is a little annoying. Take his point from his post instead of saying his attitude is a problem and dismissing everything.

I've seen way worse posts that were actually hostile. His post equates to: this is a rushed idea.

>>2219776
Sorry, but
>It very much looks like a solution that you pulled out of your ass. Hopefully you can shove it right back before it begins to stink.
is about the very last thing you should think about adding to your post if you didn't want to be interpreted as hostile. The rest of the wording is questionable at best.

>>2219776

Look, as I've said before, I've never been satisfied with the shield. Making it consume mana when using normally goes against how every other subweapon behaves in GMOTA. So I don't want to go that route. Honestly I don't want to attempt balancing the shield because I've fucking hated it, like it feels like there's hardly anything of interest I can do with the goddamned thing, so I'm going to finally remove it.

I haven't dismissed his points either, it's just pissing me off that I got someone tredding on my testicles on top of me being frustrated with inability to make a solid decision and make GMOTA's gameplay not fucking garbage.

Yes I'm indecisive about all this, because I'm not happy with GMOTA's balance in general, and some of the shit I've added has got myself into a nasty corner, and I can't just remove them because of how long they've been around. Rebalancing those elements is either impossible or a whole new project in itself.

>>2219793
> hardly anything of interest I can do with the goddamned thing
how about you check out Captain America?

>>2219812

Wouldn't that be a little counter-intuitive to throw the shield away after blocking with it every time and having to wait for it to come back? What if you just want to block for a moment? I'm not about to add additional button presses or anything that'd make it more awkward to use and make this mod that much more obtuse to play.

I thought about adding an ability to make the player non-shootable and give them the ability to phase through monsters, but there's always a chance that you could get stuck inside one, so that idea's out the window.

I thought about orbiting objects when blocking with it, but really that's kinda useless too, because why would you want to stand next to something and slowly whittle it down while being invulnerable? So that one didn't pan out

I'm pretty certain most people liked the shield for the dash ability, I know that's the only reason why I still like it, and I've thought about giving the powered sword the ability to do that dash if you hold the primary fire button.

And while it's on my mind, that guy ragging on me about shining knight being so powerful? I mentioned before it's going to become a BFG item that's required before you can actually trigger it, and I've been considering making it costly as all hell to actually activate it.

>>2219820
m8, there are many things cap does with the shield, throwing is a trademark of his, but one that may really shine is deflecting, of EVERYTHING
also you could maybe give it a high painchance

>>2219823

Reflecting projectiles is a finnicky and inaccurate thing in Doom though.

and what would be the use in a high painchance thing when the grappler is a 100% guaranteed flinch on all monsters?

nah m8 he mad

Am I the only person that thinks All Out War is an absolutely shitty game mode? I'll admit that I suck at this game, but the whole thing feels unbalanced as all hell.

>>2219825
>Reflecting projectiles is a finnicky and inaccurate thing in Doom though.
Not in this conversation, but it doesn't need to be if kegan would just start using acs.
Actually he could probably even get away with spamming a_spawnitemex hundreds of little projectiles that reflect projectiles rather than relying on a single one.

What was the name of that gameplay mod that made the game more realistic and difficult?
I remember a lot of chatter about it on here a long while back, but I just got a new computer, so I wanted to try it out. I remember that getting shot a certain way would make your screen blink black for a bit.

>>2219857
Or he could just let it throw the reflected projectiles in random directions. That would certainly spice up things.

>>2219860

I'm still going forward with removing the shield. As I've said, if there's enough of an issue with it being gone I'll bring the fucking thing back.

>>2219886
kegan pls

>>2219886
there will be absolutely zero issues with the shield being gone and you're missing the point again
what kind of issues are you even looking for? it was an optional weapon for a reason, no one needed it

Doom the Way id Did was only marginally harder than vanilla Doom. You could try that.

Thanks guys, I'll try them after I beat Doom 2 after I finish Ultimate Doom. I feel as if I need to finish those two before moving onto other things.

Speaking of which, in the package that I downloaded GZDoom in there are other games. Can I get a quick summary of the following:
Final Doom: TNT/Plutonia, Heretic, Hexen, and Strife. I know what Chex Quest because I saw a speedrunner play through it.
I'd play them myself to figure it out but I'm afraid I'll get absorbed into them and not finish Doom.

>>2219998
Final Doom: Plutonia/TNT are level packs for Doom II. They can be pretty difficult at times.
Heretic is basically fantasy doom.
Hexen is a successor to Heretic. It's got classes, hubworlds, jumping, and unique weapons (whereas Heretic had only copies of Doom's weapons)
I haven't played Strife, but I heard it's got dialogue and stealth

>>2219998
Just a heads up, if you have trouble in Doom on UV, Episode 4 is going to kick your ass. Hard.
The whole episode is fairly difficult, but the first two maps are hard as balls. E4M2 is legitimately the hardest level in all of Doom 1 and 2.
Don't feel bad if you can't do it. Maybe tackle Doom 2 first then come back to it.

>>2220013
I'm playing on Hurt Me Plenty, and it's a decent challenge so far. Not too easy, but I've been caught off guard a few times with how fast things can turn to shit.

All in all I'm having fun playing Doom. Though I'm still not sure what the fuck you guys are going on about agitated skeletons and shit.

>>2219685
Look m8 I know you love skeletons and all, but you should really have more skin than one.
You just admitted that you hated the shield so much that you would rather screw everyone who loved it and just remove the damn thing instead attempt to balance it, you should be fucking thankful that people like your mod enough to still be giving you ideas after this, not demanding respect from anons after you clearly stated you were bracing your anus already.
I dont even use the shield and these news are fucking terrifying. An unique and versatile weapon being replaced by an improved asslet with ugly ass projectiles for incredibly half-assed reasons.
Everyone here is hiped for a cutebold rogue that wont pop up sooner than a TSP update, content being cut because of lazyness is the last thing we want to hear.

>>2220018
Yeah, Doom 1's pretty easy up until that point.
And you won't be seeing any spooky skellingtons until Doom 2.
Especially Plutonia, it's got revenants out the ass.

>>2220018
Just prepare yourself before entering Doom 2. Spooky Skellingbones are gonna try and bone you about halfway through the game. Seriously fuck them.

I feel like you're going to play on "hard" then the wad should, at least, have additional enemies and then maybe less medikits, but barely any ammo should be removed. Personally, I really don't see how UV is "hard" at all, in relation to the original Doom1/2, since it seems to barely adds more monsters and makes them slightly more aggressive.

I already have some ideas for an overhaul and I'll be running it past a few select people when I get off work. You guys are right.

The sad part is how few invasion maps, you have zero invasion... and zero invasion... and that one wad with map themed after cycled (Day/night, weather, etc), and zero invasion. Is it hard to make invasion maps, or people is just lazy/uninterested?

i think it's because invasion mode is (by default) only on skulltag

OKAY. I'M HOME NOW.

So. The shield as it is is going to die. Fuck it.

NEW SHIELD MECHANICS:

You hit altfire and raise the shield for a brief time, like a "SHING" for a sec or two, instead of full invuln I'll make it a proper frontal protection. If you hit secondary a second time you'll throw it like a boomerang which means you'll still have a means of intercepting projectiles in the air.

POW'd up would make the shield's throw would make an AOE disc of repulsion explosion when it hits shit. and when projectiles hit the shield when blocking will cause... I don't know, maybe a shotgun burst of light.

But yeah. The shield as it is isn't staying. it's crap

Oh Ion Storm, how did you go so wrong?

Excalibur 1.1 - http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/?id=1780

an early codifier for castle maps (cf. icarus map14). well-detailed, this has everything: dungeons, throne rooms, banquet halls, secret passages, stables, bedrooms, bathrooms, in fact it's more like a theme hotel now i come to think of it. it also has an overzealous reject map that often means monsters a few feet away will not react to your presence, so you might like to get rid of that before playing it, which i do recommend.

You already have an inventory in G/ZDoom, a GUI for it is just ACS and has been done before this.

>>breakable crates
The same way as other breakable decorations, like in Demonsteele, except using models. He can even use models from other games like Half-Life, which he probably did.

Listed as dungeon here.

Was there ever a fork of gzdoom without the new renderer (basically gzdoom 2.1 running with 1.9's renderer)? I seem to recall a link to it floating around here, but I can't find anything with google. If this isn't another of my fever dreams, could someone be kind enough to provide a link?

>>2216745
Isn't this from Nova.

>>2220776
For some reason, I get Resident Evil in my mind.
You need a cheesy live-action intro, trust me on this bro.

>>2220795
I would so do it, I uhm...I might have planned on doing something live action but things with the actress kind of fell through. Who knows in the future.

Also, this is for a game mode that's based around Resident Evil/Survival Horror gameplay, so the feel is very intentional.

>>2220809
Would be kickass if you some day made a mutator that would replace all the monsters with zombies and Umbrella style BOW's.

>>2220810
This might be vaguely a thing already! Lone Survivor spawns these melee zombie scientists in zombieman spawns!

(also, LS mode will darken the game like Dark Doom, but it isn't implemented yet so I played this with, you guessed it, Dark Doom)

Also, you see that in the corner? You're thinking, "Well, you have three bullets left, that sucks man."

Not the case! Lone Survivor mode changes the reload system to magazine-based rather than bullet-pool based. Better keep those reload fingers at bay...!

>>2220824
Not exactly, but you helped me find it. It was a gzdoom fork by marrub, but it appears he took it down.

>>2220429
I dont think anyone was even defending that specific shield, just mad that you scrapped a subweapon with lots of potential. At least all suggestions included adding heavy drawbacks or reworking it into not being a dependable invul button.

The new one sounds really fun to use, but I have a few questions :
- Can I cancel the SHING sooner into a sword slash instead of throwing it first? You wanted to do something like this with the old POW version but never got around to it.
- Proper frontal protection includes AoE? I am guessing blocking angry martians is no more, but what if a rocket/barrel explodes in front of my raised shield?
- Is the boomerang full captain murica with ricochet shenaningans or does it come straight back after hitting walls? POW throw sounds awesome if you can aim it to hit enemie's side/back.
- Shotgun burst is for heavy projectiles only, right? Duke in particular is a concern.
Actually I am not sure if hugging enemies with your shield up to kill them is a good idea. Seems like it would either be too good or completely useless depending what/where you are fighting.
- Shield crash. You said in the zdoom thread that it was an asspull, the dash function is already present shinning and it may even exist in a new sword thrust thingy... Well to be honest I didnt even like it. It was incredibly good when needed (speedruns, avoiding large numbers of enemies, huge invulnerability while everything else dies from barrels) but I would have preferred to have no item crash at all 99% of the time and have the regular shield while doing blue slashes of mana wastery fun.
Since you were opposed to regular shield consuming mana, I am guessing there is no chance of this, but it does fit since its the only sub that doesnt generate mana to begin with.

>>2220830
Will there be a flashlight for the survival horror version?
Some levels are really dark as is you know.

>>2220839

-Yes you'll still be able to cancel the shield and go straight into a sword attack. I might keep that quirk of freezing a sword combo too because that's fun.
-I'll look into blocking against splash damage.
-I'll play around with the boomerang shield and see what works best on rebounds or no rebounds
-The counter attack isn't set in stone so I'll fuck around with it and see what works best.
-Remove the shield dash? Fuck, I don't know because it's really fun. The sword dash isn't a guaranteed thing now either seeing as the shield is staying.

I'm such an indecisive prick it's not even funny.

>>2220830
I am more curious as to what the red dots are.
