>>2475575
i'm not voxelbro, i'm the guy who did a shitty barrel a long, long time ago and the drla modpacks

>>2475580
Well I still think you're cool.

>>2475528
What's the deal with Comfy Doom?
Is the joke that it doesn't do anything?

>>2475541
Snapmuhdickmap will take care of it shortly after launch.

Imagine all the vagina mouths actually working.

>>2475597
It modifies weapon behavior to make them more irritating

Team-based multiplayer mods don't seem very popular in the doom community. Why is that?

>>2475604
That's evil.

Cool nirvana reference, id

>>2475597
Did you read the spoiler in the topic?

>>2475609
You're kidding, right?
GvH and AoW are still some of the most popular among normies I can't believe I used that fucking word in the doommunity.

>>2475615
the barrel is too short, it looks like the guy could have actually shot himself in the face.
nice try, Courtney

>>2475527
Why is metroid dreadnought still in popular mods section when it hasn't been updated in over 9000 years?

>>2475619
>it looks like the guy could have actually shot himself in the face.

...isn't that what happened, though?

>>2475617
Never heard of AoW before, huh. I guess the MP crowd keeps to themselves a bit.

What I'd really want to do is Tribes-Doom.

>>2475624
He came as he were.

>>2475624
It was an inside job.

>>2475627
I think the MP crowd should just play Dwango5 24/7 who's with me

>>2475623

I don't understand the point of a "popular mods" section at all, but if your question is about update frequency then wouldn't it be better to ask about DRLA or Space Pirate?

>>2475629

THE DOOMINATI~!

>>2475615

9/10

>>2475635
>>2475527

Instead of "popular mods", would it be better to link the latest iteration of "So You Want To Play Some Fucking Doom"?

I have Shadow Warrior Classic Redux, can anyone tell me how to get mods, levels and a community for Multiplayer?

since this is FPS general, anyone play pathways into darkness?
it's an old favorite of mine, I remember playing it on a IIvx back in the day, and I've been playing recently on basilisk II.

being from the early 90s, it has alot of limitations, but it's still very good. it's harder than I remembered, though. I like how they combined FPS with puzzle solving and RPG elements. my favorite part is the insane atmosphere, right up there with Hexen imo.

>>2475664
>tfw the modern Shadow Warrior has better cutting mechanics than DooM 4
>tfw even the old Shadow Warrior had fun (but limited) cutting mechanics

Why did they do that to the chainsaw. Bethesda why. ;_;

just got done playing /pol/.wad and had a blast.

can anyone recommend me some other wads that are as exciting, funny and unpredictable?

What's the consensus of Doom 4?

>>2475673
wasnt that game made by bungie?

o how far they have fallen.

>>2475682
it's not out yet

>>2475674
Shadow Warrior 2 is totally over shadowing Doom 4 for me. It's so much more interactive and it improves everything I hoped it would, open levels and better weapon play. Coop and beautiful setting is such a plus too.

>>2475686

yes, it was one of bungies first games. it put them on the map and led to delicious follow ups like marathon. pretty sure pathways was briefly referenced in later games.

>>2475682
its not doom 3

>>2475637
kek

>>2475682

Some people like it, some people don't.

>>2475682
There is non yet. We're all violently speculating about it.

I'm let down with it and sour about the health system, but hopefully it was just some stupid E3 bullshot stuff that will be changed for the final release.

>>2475682
>doom 3 had a better art style
>no reloading is good
>Mancubus and Cyberdemon look like league
of legends characters
>arena style multiplayer with gimmicks looks dumb too
>still misses the point of doom

>>2475705
>>2475682
I'm excited for a decent FPS, even if it's not Doom-like enough for me. I like the style of most of the monsters, though it's not colorful enough. The shooting and movement looks pretty good. Dig the climbing and double jumping, and it's about as fast as I would expect a modern shooter could be. Gore is awesome, but the chainsaw looks too canned, and the finishers, while quick, seem more gimmicky than gameplay oriented. Snapmap looks neat for the layman, but I'm hoping for more in depth mod tools.

Pretty much looks like it has a lot of potential to be pretty great, but more data is needed.

Overall I'm at about 7/10 hype.

>>2475705
Yeah, that's how I feel. I'm kind of disappointed, but we still have a year to go so maybe they'll look at some of the E3 feedback and tweak things a little. E3 demos are always garbage for telling how a game will actually play, though, so we'll have to wait and see some actual gameplay later.

>>2475705
A lot of people are discussing gun and monster design minutiae to the exclusion of the game as a whole. The criticism of the color postprocessing is perfectly valid though.

Personally I like how the devs seem to actually care about the game and what defines it, even if they didn't necessarily make every decision the way I would.

>>2475682

>>2475682

Before E3 Hype: 9/10
During E3 Presentation: 6/10
Immediately after Presentation: 3/10
The Day Following: 7/10

They have a few months to fix it.
E3 is known for shitty scripted presentations, and Doom 3 was no stranger to that in 2002 (which looked fucking awful, look it up.)

If nothing else and it all goes south - bitchin' easy editor and someone will make a mod to remove the terribad Fallout 3-esq tint filters.

>>2475732
>>2475727
>>2475716
I honestly do think that we should start criticism thread on doomworld. Then we could show them to id/bethesda and hopefully get them to change it in time. Even if is an optional "puritan" mode.
They do suggest that we tell them what we think, so we should be honest.

>>2475764
>Even if is an optional "puritan" mode.

>No awful color tints
>Old-style Pump Shotgun
>Starting Pistol Weapon
>Original Monster Colors and Updated Activation Sounds
>Sprinting always on
>Music always on, on loop, with updated editions and not the dark-ambient we've seen.
>Corny intermission story updates
>Doom 1 style "YOU ARE HERE ->" map between levels.


Please, let my dreams come true.

>>2475780
So. Just Doom then?
I agree with the color tints, and monster colors (or at least any fucking color, though pink demons appear pink anyway...)

My biggest gripe is canned animations and the borderlands-like health/ammo drop.

>>2475780
I'm more interested in
>more interactive chainsaw
>berserk pack and fist weapon slot
>only original weapons, no attachments
>original monster behaviour
>monsters aren't afraid of chainsaw
>HUD face
>no power armour
>weightier jumping
>pistol starting
But keep the jumping, climbing and monsters having freedom of movement, that could actually add something

>>2475789

If I had to be a mong, my gripe list from the E3 presentation trailer is:
(And major note here, I know E3 presentations are often shitcans and likely explains half of this)
>Color tints
>Color tints
>Color tints
>Awful, borderline retarded Demon AI
>Lack of punch with a lot of the weapons
>Boring pump animation
>Super slow finishers
>Chainsaw looked extremely boring to use past a few enemies
>Number of enemies on the screen never felt remotely threatening
>Cyberdemon redesign felt uninspired from what I remember

Cacodemons were fucking noice though. Looked enough like the old ones to spark nostalgia without being a blatent 1:1 copy. Better than Doom 3's floating meatballs.

>>2475761
>fix it
They're not going to do anything for the niche communities. Go to the youtube comment sections. That's their audience and they are the majority.

Also it seems like the weapons from the leak stayed the same. I bet id just carried the gunplay from this shitty version. You can see SSG, Plasma Gun and the Chainsaw:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hot1aQJTw8

>>2475801
>HUD face

I forgot to mention this and how EXTREMELY IMPORTANT it is.

My father, who basically introduced me to the game at an age I should've never been playing it, still recalls that his favorite feature was that little HUD face and how it reacted to stuff.

Why the fuck don't more games have something like that?

>>2475764
>>2475780

Purist mode is not something that can fix problems. Hitman Absolution has a purist mode and it plays like shit because the game was designed outside of scope of what purist mode changes.

>>2475804
Plasma rifle is nearly the same as Doom 3's.

The only issue I have with the weapons is the animations are a little weak on some of them, and the sound on the plasma rifle was weak as shit. They didn't feel like they had enough power, but I think that's mostly the animation. They punched the monsters hard enough (I actually really liked the roll that the one imp did, then got back up).

The monsters in general look pretty mobile actually. I like that they climb up things and jump around, even if they did act retarded as hell in the demo - I'm hoping that's just E3 gameplay shenanigans though.

>>2475805
>little HUD face and how it reacted to stuff.
I honestly believe that doomguy is the most human part of doom. He's the one friendly in the game and he reacts like you do. Gritting teeth when firing, joyful when getting a new toy and scared when dying.

>>2475802
Demon design is absolute mish mash. There seems to be no single style. Are they trying to appeal to everyone or is it just butchered development?

Cartoony
Mancubus, Pinky, Cacodemon

Semi-cartoony
Cyberdemon

Semi-serious
Revenant (he's cool in my book)

Serious looking
Hell Knight/Baron, all those various flavours of zombie minions and imps

>>2475805
>>2475823
The complete lack of a HUD face is the biggest sin to me.

I can accept generic demons, piss filters, fatality-focused gameplay, and more.
But out of the ALL THE THINGS that made Doom iconic and stick out...

So I've just gotten up to year 1997 of the top 100 wads. Been on the backlog for some time. So far, I haven't been that impressed. One or two nice ones but the megawads seemed so-so.

>finally beat the hunt after 30 attempts
>die a minute into speed
>not even halfway through the wad

Plutonia a shit.

>>2475829
>But out of the ALL THE THINGS that made Doom iconic and stick out...
It was in wolfenstein and quake too. It's more of a general id Software thing than a Doom thing.

>>2475832
I played Plutonia with Samsara Corvus... Was not the ideal character.

>>2475817
In the cutdown trailer for the gameplay trailer the cut all the action down to kills so the weapons seem much more punchier. With a few plasma shots the enemy just explodes.
Of course the gameplay reality is so much more different.

>>2475940
>youd get a reflection of Doomguy's face in the visor at times
and it was the pixel face

the more "realistic" games try to be, the more they drop cartoony things like status bar faces

>>2475917
But we already know what the mechanic changes are. It's perfectly valid to criticise it.
You don't need to eat shit to know that it's shit.

>>2475874
Probably limited amount of chainsaw kills you can do. Looks pretty much like limited-finisher weapon.

>>2475682

>>2475949
I don't think realistic is the right word. A video game made entirely out of menus, icons and other abstractions can be very realistic if it simulates something. It's about the level of abstraction, which isn't necessarily tied to the level of realism.

just read an article where bethesda says the gameplay will be much harder in the actual game.

well, duh.

but then the article says "He went on to say that the Bethesda developer who performed the demo during the company's conference Sunday evening was a total expert at the game."

People criticize on what they have shown and all that it might imply.
If then they are wrong they'll just change opinion. What's the problem?
You are not cool, mature or more right by taking a neutral stance.

Nope. Too scrawny, needless open helmet, stuttery animation, spaghetti legs.

>>2476158
>>2476158
The head is perfectly stationary and there's no flow to the torso movement. Legs also look rather silly.

>>2476108
Good for Skillsaw, he deserves it.

We CAN ask bethesda if the final product will have more color, right?

This brown-and-grey makes it just look untextured.

>>2476276

So lets say:

Colourful hell.

More variance in hell: demonic cathedrals, rivers of lava, etc.

DoomRLA-esque modding (weapon mods are already in the game and quickly done at a drop of the hat), you can complete the game with the stock weapons or you can see what you get by mixing and matching mods.

How come there's no modding support for Strife? It's such a good game - It's hard as balls but oh so satisfying when you progress through it.

>>2476383
You can do some stuff with GZDoom. It's largely inflexible because we still don't have the real source code, only various attempts at reverse-engineering.

So confirmed by id exec producer, the weaponwheel is optional, you can quick flip through your weapons as well, so if thats the case then Im pretty sure PC can just numberbind them.

Im surprised the guy doing the interview didnt ask, when he mentioned the executions, if there will be normal melee

>>2476405
>Im surprised the guy doing the interview didnt ask, when he mentioned the executions, if there will be normal melee

Why would he ask? Everyone likes cinematic takedowns because of how epic they are. No, just hitting your opponent and earning a victory from actually having to put SOME effort into it is lame.

Fuck, I hate how melee is handled nowadays in vidya

>>2475696

I'm okay with stealth kills, but yeah, I'm so disgusted with instant win buttons, or how melee is handled as a very awkward, unwieldy option. I don't expect to go through shooters with a knife alone but for fuck's sake guys you could make them not horrible.

>>2476405
>So confirmed by id exec producer, the weaponwheel is optional, you can quick flip through your weapons as well

>>2475682
>weapons aren't centered

dropped. Non-centered weapons without the option for iron sights are un-aimable for me.

>>2476442
Hopefully it's an option... or at least a mod...

>>2476440
>instant-win button
You mean like how it's a Gears of War, or more particularly God of War without the QTE, execution for style and rewards on a single enemy you've damaged enough that another good shotgun blast would kill them anyway? By that point if you leave them they'd probably attack anyway so you might as well kill them by hand or by gun, better get it over with.

The chainsaw, that's one thing, it seems they may be balancing that out somehow with the ammo count but nothing's confirmed yet. But if they take community reception into account and balance enemy drops so fatalities don't need to be spammed, then we should be golden.

Besides, outside of a berserk pack, did you really punch enemies much in the original unless you were specifically challenging yourself to a Tyson run or such?

>>2476449

I just feel canned animations get old very quickly, and it gets to be really formulaic.

I'd rather have the chainsaw be a traditional weapon where you just buzz things to death and have a swipe, and maybe have the swipe do an execution if you swipe a monster that's glowing and stunned.

and in classic vanilla doom, yeah, fists were pretty much useless, but in the classic games, shotgun ammo was plentiful, whereas here ammo counts are low, we could do with a fists option or at least a fucking melee bash

I can say the one thing I'm not concerned about for Doom 4 is the soundtrack, since Mick Gordon's previous stuff has been good.

>>2475682
Thought it looked great. I was pretty surprised even though I had a feeling it would look good.

Then I watched a little bit after the hype. With a lot less of a hype lens. Honestly? It still looks alright. It definitely could use some work though. Unlike most people I am not going to be unreasonable here. Game looks decently fun. They really need to work some things out though. Like that ugly as hell looking hell.

>>2476495
it's intentional, thanks anon ;]

it's hard to be 100% serious when you refuse to use custom monster and weapon sprites as a design limitation (technically there are custom weapon sprites, but they're all modified iD sprites)

>>2476405

nice source fartknocker

What's the name of this one wad i remember playing where your in a bedroom in the middle of the night and there is a switch somewhere that opens the bathroom (or mirror or something) and when you go in you get teleported to this prison like room with crazy chainmen walking around with a lot of gore decoration I forgot the name of it but it was pretty awesome to play it again

>>2475682
Some things look pretty great, some don't.
It's radically different from the other games, which I'm honestly fine with, there wasn't any way that it was going to play like Classic Doom, to think otherwise would have been naive. The gameplay looks kind of fun, but not perfect.

Some of the design looks great, some of it doesn't, the Revenant looks fucking TOP NOTCH and is the best official design since Doom 2, Mancubus looks alright, it's a disgusting fatass, which I think they conveyed decently, new Cyberdemon looks like ass, it looks like they tried to ape Pacific Rim or something (great movie, but it's just not Doom), with the carapace and ugly flat horns, I also hate his stumpy, chunky posture, remember how proud and towering the original guy was?
Cacodemon looks pretty damn good, not as good as the original, but way better than Doom 3 one.

Some nitpicking about weapons:

Shotgun has too short of a travel on the pump, it needs to be a few inches longer, it looks like he short-chucks it every time, at least to me.

Super Shotgun reload has him not using the barrel latch and instead just forcing the barrels down, as if they were held in place by friction, and not a lock. I'm fine with the grip I guess, but I wish it had a full stock like in Doom 2.

Plasma looks excellent, but sounds too weak, it needs a louder sound, I like the PEW noise but it could need a soft BANG or THUMP to go with it, to convey power and the rapid escape of superheated gases. Also when used on the Mancubus, he seemed to give no shit, granted he's meant to be a damage sponge, but he didn't even twitch or flinch.

Chainsaw is only seen doing fatalities/finishers, they look great, but I hope you can use it to just saw out towards enemies, like in 1, 2 and 3. In Doom 3 the chainsaw felt absolutely mighty and I loved that.

Game could need more color, as many have stated, and too much metal corridors (like Doom 3), wheres the concrete, ceramic hexagon tiles and blue carpeting?

like a rocket-powered bullet. quite appropriate...

Psychoskeles in OMGWPNS V5 now have a 25% chance of being AGITATED

they also fall down cliffs which could be useful for when they spawn on tall ledges but can't do anything

who here likes my doom wad!

>>2476926
Fuck off.

>>2476926
Now replace it with doom monsters, lose the school look and give it more realistic weapons.

>>2476918
what about the ones that spawn on tall ledges to act as snipers at first, then are released later? you've just broken the balance of all maps arranged that way.

>>2476918
This was a mistake of mine when i first watched the doom 4 trailer but could you replace the rocket launchers with miniguns?

>>2476450
I think the melee stuff is more them thinking people actually genuinely want a Doom closer to the Doom comic. It's alright as a goofy comic, but I wouldn't want gameplay based off it.

>>2476924

Marty you son of a bitch, release that

>>2476942

Yeah. You know what was based off the comic? Brutal doom. I'm not exactly optimistic about all this

Doom 3.

>>2476949

oh, didn't realise that was a thing. okay, fair enough, you know what you are doing, i apologize for my impertinence. carry on.

>>2476557
They're developing a dynamic music system to put in the game.
https://twitter.com/Mick_Gordon/status/610783985132658688
So we can expect the music to change depending on the context. Seems cool.

>>2476926
Get that faggot shit out of here you underage b& edgelord.

>>2476716
>tried to ape Pacific Rim
That's probably because they brought the lead concept artist onto doom. They were hyping the game up with him last year.
I think that the idea is to try and make the hands of the artists more present in the final game, but the design languages are totally disconnected.

>>2476983
why pink??

>>2476716
Why did the UAC like the blue carpeting anyway? Some more color is welcome but was it a byproduct of how DOS games usually looked?

>>2477005

Contrast, dude. It's all about interior design.

But really, 8bit palette limitation. Use what you've got.

>>2476949
>>2476951
I kekkled.

T-this may have been a mistake.

>>2477048
What is going on

>>2477061
It's something I'm working on; currently have Zombiemen replaced with spawners that spawn high-damaging melee zombies; the higher the difficulty, the more zoms spawn. (Screenshot taken on the highest difficulty.)

>>2477068
Zombie imps?

>>2477074
More or less, yeah.

>>2477074
you could call them
"Zimps"

>>2477008
>Doom
>8bit
>8
>bit

>>2477083
Keyword: palette. Meaning it has 256 colors to work with.

>>2477008
Doom had palette limitations, yes, but there was no 8-bit limitation, they could very well have more than 8 colors per graphic and they did.

The Doom palette had many reds, blues, browns, grays, and yellows, a limited amount, but they could all be applied to the same graphic if needed.

Depending on light conditions, they might not all show as well, as Doom handled lighting by applying darker colors on things the less light there was.

So an Imp, who has many shades of brown on him, will in the dark look less shaded and more flat if you can see him, as the shader lowers the browns down to the darkest shade of brown on the palette.

>>2477091
>Doom had palette limitations, yes, but there was no 8-bit limitation, they could very well have more than 8 colors per graphic and they did.
Sir, I don't think you understand what "8 bit" means.

>>2477083

Doom was not an 8-bit game, but it had an 8-bit palette.

ZDoom sometimes forgets how bouncing works.


Later on, this thing suddenly decided to target me and chased me throughout the level.

>>2477104
Holy shit, that looks amazingly fun! What mod is it?

>>2477106
Hmm? It's DRPG/DRLA on Resurgence.

It's just a Nightmare Cyberdemon's blast that somehow got the weird infinite bounce bug and hung around for ages.

Looks like the latest zdoom adds dehacked without needing -deh

I knew it's done it from zips automatically, but it's nice anyway.

>>2477107
Oh, wow. I usually don't play around with gameplay mods, but these look fun. I'll give them a shot, thanks!

>>2477107
hey yholl, saw that blaster voxel posted in the previous thread?

oh and while you're here, is there a way to change your class (on respawn?) in doomRL when you're playing coop?

>>2477113
Bare in mind that running DRPG is not a straightforward or easy process. DRLA is though. But yeah, just be prepared to set stuff up.

>>2477118
Nah, I didn't.

I've got no clue, last time I tried was ages ago, didn't work then, I think.

>>2477120
here it is
part of me wants to make voxels for all the weapon, and the other part is just too lazy to finish anything

>>2477124
Oh man, that's super cool! Nicely done.
And yeah, if laziness is a problem, you probably shouldn't. The amount of pickups and stuff is truly horrifying, especially in the dev version, hahaha.

>>2477126
I agree
>Give everything on console
>I am more weapon than man

>>2477130
>>2477126
talking about "give everything" it gives you a slot1 glitch item (RLWeapon)
i don't know if it can be avoided, but that sure gets in the way when you're testing stuff

oh, and is the reality distortion array supposed to work? it freezes the game on my (possibly outdated) gzdoom

>>2477139
Give everything gives you everything. Absolutely everything, especially things you shouldn't have. A single weapon out of almost two hundred is not really an issue.

I made the RDA crash people because people kept summoning it even though it's not done.

>>2477140
oh ok, fair enough

>>2477140
Hey, been a while since I played DRLA. Is the assault rifle assembly still a downgrade?

>>2477142
Triple damage, extreme accuracy, slow firerate.
A long range weapon, not for close quarters unless you are confident.
It's been quite a while since it was bad.

>>2477148
it would be neat if all weapon stats and assembly modifiers were precisely documented ingame (dices and everything)

maybe with some kind of "advanced display" options

>>2477152
The Hud is already so much of a clusterfuck right now, it's a 32k line monstrosity you can get lost in.
What I honestly want to do is replace with a full on ACS-based menu system where all this information can be at your fingertips, dynamically to boot.

Be sooo much easier to maintain, amv2k9's a champ for helping me so much with the hud but eventually one of us will snap, hahaha.

Plus the current system is kinda limits creativity a bit, like, I only have room for one more advanced assembly. Just one.

A cool-looking PDA with menus where you can access information on all your stuff... oh man... hnnng. All the information collected in single places rather than scattered across the heavens... Mmmmmmm.

>>2477164
oh man oh man
plus imagine how you could have the menu look slightly different for each class
marine has the generic thing
scout the lightweight version
renegade some mad max like clusterfuck
engeeer has some holographic display built in his glasses

>>2477167
Yees. This is good idea.
Yholl, go yell at Kyle to make you the things.
HAHAH OH WAIT HE STILL HASN'T MADE HIS OWN GUI OOOOOH

>>2477164
Acs menus are pretty easy, mouse driven ones even. Apparently they're supposed to be troublesome in multiplayer though?

>>2477167

I need him to make other things first.
Also I may or may not be the reason why he hasn't done so yet.

>>2477174

>>2477174
nice to see you back. and you seem to be recovering from burnout? or is that just wishful thinking.

>>2477178
Oh yeah, I've been going nuts lately.
Today alone I redid all the player classes to use inheritance, made class icons for multiplayer scoreboard, added custom weapon bobbing to every single weapon in the game and added new awesome sprites to the [REDACTED], with sprites for the High Power [REDACTED] hopefully getting done tomorrow.

I've been trying to get decent at recording webms, was thinking of showing off some of the new weapon sprites in 1.0 for you guys, if you're interested.

Would you guys be interested in a frontend that remembers load orders (many of them + config + your shopping list) based on the hashes of the files, not their metadata (filename, etc...)?

This would mean you can rename files and move them around but the load orders would be remembered.

>>2477181
the hype is real, i really want to see that

moddable armors are not planned yet, are they?

>>2477190
No, not for a good while, sorry.

I'll go make a few webms for ya.

>>2477192
you really don't have to apologize for that

>>2477181
great news. and, please do.
>>2477184
heh, nice.

>>2477048

interesting sprites, who made them?

Split into two parts because aaaaaa

>>2477207
I believe Uboa made the zom sprites, I dunno who made the revolver sprites, took them from the "Blood prequel" Zygo was making before he got ban't again on the ZDF.

Part 2.
Of note is the HP Plasma Rifle's ammo counter, which is always updated, even when you hold it to the side for cooldown.

And that's the new sprites for the [REDACTED] I mentioned, hehe. One of the new Superior weapons, the Hunting Revolver.

>>2477220
>>2477223
neat

>>2477220
>>2477223
cool

if you can do them with sound, you can post them on /wsg/ and cross-link. like >>2477184. this also allows an extra megabyte file size and up to 300 seconds duration.

>>2477236
Oh that's cool, very nicely done!

>>2477240

>>2475884
New cacodemons are still kind of cute, aren't they?

>>2477223
That revolver is The Shit, are you fine with others using the graphics?

>>2477271
That's one of Doom Nukem's sprites, he posts them in his thread free to use, as long as you credit him.

>>2477220
>>2477223
i don't think i've seen that mugshot before...

>>2477278
It's the Demolitionist from the upcoming DRLA update. All the mugshots (minus the Marine) in DRLA are custom made.

Is Vavoom ded? Did Zdoom kill it?

>>2477304
Vavoom was already ded.

>somebody make a fucking Blood Dragon weapons mod

>>2477316
Do it faget

Playing Project Brutality has reminded me,
I want a mod that, for the most part, keeps the Doom gameplay, but makes the game harder, not by making the enemies stronger or tougher, but just straight up more smarter. Unreal did this to great effect apparently, and even Serious Sam 3 just letting enemies strafe and shoot was amazing.

>>2477327
The thing is that Doom makes enemies harder and more interesting to fight via level design, not smart AI

>>2476897
Turn it into a Boltgun! You know it makes sense Anon...

>>2477331
Yeah, but even having enemies that aim a bit ahead, or try and dodge, would be nice. Something to make up for the fact that we've become so accustomed to mouse and keyboard controls that we've pretty much become masters at it.

What did you dorks think of PalPlus?

I can live with that. Once you bring back hitscan enemies and do some mathcraft on their damage output why not?

Hectic chasing sounds cool, but what's the meaning of running away from 3 zombies? When engine only can render 6-8 monsters at the same scene, why bother making it a open arena?

I feel retarded. I'm using ZDoom and I don't know how to pistol start in the next level. I get myself killed on the next level and restart but it just respawns me with my current inventory. Everything else seems like a trick that would quickly get annoying. Is there some obvious shit I'm missing here? Doesn't seem like ZDoom even has an option for pistol starting but they options for everything else.

>>2477816
>I get myself killed on the next level and restart but it just respawns me with my current inventory.
It does that cause autosave is enabled by default, so each new level it makes a new save right away. I think I remember seeing an anon posting a gameplay mod that forced pistol start right away too.

>>2477824
http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?t=47204

>>2477316
Someone did.

And it's not very good, and also they fucked up the shotgun

>>2477824
Auotsave, huh? Interesting. I heard about the forced pistol start wad. I'll see if the autosave thing helps and if it doesn't, I'll use the wad in >>2477828
thanks

>>2477843
it's in Miscellaneous Options to save you some searching

>>2477816
I don't know if there's an option to toggle, but you can always type "map map01/e1m1" etc in the console to pistol start on any level.

Looking for good megawads for playing with brutal doom. Already played alien vendetta and both BTSX episodes, anything else you guys can recommend?

>inb4 not playing brutal doom faggot

>>2477850
Sadly no but I guess there's no option to toggle since turning off autosave fixes the problem. It just worked for me so that's good. Once I beat Ep2 and heard pistol start was the intended design, I really wanted to restart at Ep1 and do it that way, sounded fun. I saw the option for the map console thing but it felt like something that would get tedious for a straight playthrough.

>>2477860
if you managed to get through those with BD you could probably choose just about anything short of Sunder/Slaughterfest. Try Scythe 2, or Hell Revealed 2.

>>2477865
Did Scythe as well, actually kind of hated it a whole lot. I will give hell revealed a play, thanks for the advice.

>>2477901
>Did Scythe as well, actually kind of hated it a whole lot.
See, it's wrong opinions like these that get people shit on for playing Brutal Doom.

just kidding i don't like scythe 2 all that much myself and find it to be highly overrated

>>2477931
Memfis, is that you?

>>2477950
No

>>2477931
I played it a long time ago so i do not remember exactly why i hated it, but i was not playing Brutal Doom at the time. It just seemed to goddamn uninspired and slaughtery, and every fucking thing was fucking green jesus christ

>>2477997
>It just seemed to goddamn uninspired and slaughtery, and every fucking thing was fucking green jesus christ

Did you only play map 23 or something?

>>2477989
My mistake, sorry

>>2477997
heh, i remember loving Whispering Winds and playing it over and over again (on Hey Not Too Rough, admittedly)

>>2477860
If you want some big sprawling levels, I'd recommend Hellbound. Helps that the only slaughtery level is the last one.

Other than that, there's also Whispers of Satan if you want a more normal looking megawad.

>>2477406
should we update this now DooM 4 has actual substance?

So I decided to give Project Brutality a try, it's pretty fun

Really digging the new enemies and SFX, ceiling Imps can jog on though, sneaky tossers!

Hell revealed 2 is pretty good so far, but holy fuck spawning in view of multiple hitscanners is pretty shit

>>2478058
The helper marines are pretty damn OP though. Doom 2 had me with my own personal curbstomping army by Tricks and Traps.

>>2477406
>>people play doom for the cinematic melee finishers

I know Doom 4 is probably going to disappoint, but when I watched the trailer... I so badly wanted to feel the hype. Sigh, I wish I was young and stupid again.

Back to my fast shrinking wad backlog.

>>2478170
Shadow Warrior 2 looks great at least.

For the first time I feel like just fucking giving up with my mod. There's this one last math obstacle and anything I manage to google up fails to make sense to me and there's no one to ask for help.

>>2478195

It might help if you actually post what the problem is.

>>2478203

>>2478227
What the hell do you need matrix projection in ZDoom for?

>>2478227
most likely the formulas are correct but you've put a y where you meant an x or vice versa, it's very easy to do that with coordinate geometry code.

alternatively i was playing with perspective projection a few months back (take a screenshot, knowing my eyes are <here> and there's a vertex <there>, and try to calculate by hand where the vertex should be on screen) and the one thing that tripped me up was that the focal lengths are different for the x and y coordinates because of the graphics scale - the focal length for y is 6/5 times the focal length for x. if you're getting the right x coordinate but too low a y coordinate, that could be your problem.

>>2478271
To accurately get the screen coordinates of an actor so they can be interacted with via in-game mouse cursor. It 'works' except for the coordinate projection being absolute shit right now

>>2478227
>>2478287
what the shit are you making, bro

>>2478282
Thanks but that's not it - I've done that error many times before though.
>focal length
If gzdoom acts like quake ( I don't even know for sure) vertical fov is 60 degrees and horizontal is 90 for the middle 4:3 portion of the screen, which means the real fov in 16/9 is 106.23 or some shit. The most stable model I've managed uses "weak perspective" which isn't really good enough.

>>2478303
An adventure game.

>>2478317
looks neat, best of luck with it

>>2478309
well, as i understand it, focal length is just distance from the eye to the projection plane

Daily reminder that Doom 4 sucked balls.

>>2478350
How about we complain to id and bethesda?
That could be productive, even if they just add in a 'classic mode' or something similar it would be an improvement.
They still have a year to go, they might just listen.

Never understood all that whining about colour in games. Like it changes gameplay or something. Original Doom was colorful because colour was the only way to make stuff distinguishable from everything else. Nowadays we have actual models, textures, effects and etc. You can say that it's not an excuse for lack of colour, but at least don't compare it to games that came out 20+ years ago. Shit was different before. That is also the reason behind highlighting in games today. Stuff blends with environment. Everything is too detailed.

They use color for stuff like armour and ammo pickups placed on the levels. BFG and parts of mancubus have some colour too. More stuff like that wouldn't hurt, I agree, but it's not a deal breaker for me. Let's just wait for a beta.

And stop posting screenshots from modern ports and look up how Doom looked back in the day.

>>2478390
>>2478390
I think that the monsters are too monochrome. They don't pop out off the backgrounds very well, more saturation would help to contrast with the more neutral background.
This chainsaw for instance is the exact same beige as the wall. If it was a vibrant orange it would be more of a focus in the scene.

Could I play with a Super Nintendo controller? What wad would you recommend I do this with?

>>2478394
Did we get any info on if first demo was the same as the QuakeCon one? Second demo looked so much better. First one had terrible explosions and no blood at all. Dismemberment looked bad too.

>>2478394
The monsters aren't necessarily textured monochrome, same could be the case for the chainsaw and the wall. These are postprocessing effects, which can desaturate, change hue, vibrance, color etc of everything the player sees, so potentially everything could be colorful as hell without those filters.

>>2478410
Maybe, Carmack did say something ages ago about post processing "messing with those beautiful pixels".

>>2478406
Yes we did, look at the god damned Doomguy's tumblr.

I'm not insulting you, that's what it is called

>>2478428
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du-eYiD9OfM

>>2478428
>>2478435
Better example here. It's bf3 in it's actual, natural color compared to how it looks in game

>>2478410
The lighting and items are very colourful, so I'm sure it's the textures.
Here you can see the bright purple soul sphere contrast with the grey backdrop.

>>2478452
No one just puts orange tints on every single rock and gun texture. Shaders can be used to do these effects selectively, they're not necessarily applied equally to the entire image.

Oh shit, this dude was fucking serious.

Doom is not a colorful game. It just happens to use more than 2 of them.

>>2478442
I remember when DICE banned people for removing the filter through mods, like they didn't want people to know they made a good looking game and then shat all over it by taking all the colors out.

>>2478501
I'm pretty sure it was because DICE couldn't tell who was using the "remove shitty filters" mod and the "transparent textures" mod that got them banned

>>2478501
Why did they do that though? That just seems...

I dunno.

I agree that doom isn't the technicolour rainbow that people claim it to be (especially doom 2), but it always used colour more effectively. Bright, colourful monsters on a neutral brown background helped them stand out. Even zombies had green hair (but that would look silly in a modern game)
Doom 4 has nice lighting, but the monsters are too drab to grab the viewer's attention.

>>2478486
Chill out dude, I was kidding.

>>2478514

Also Doom 1 remake DLC? I'd pay to see that

I'd rather it NOT be DLC, but ah well.

eeeh, I'm still having mixed feelings about it.
The pinyata system and overpowered player melee might be here to stay after all.
Multiplayer sounds hopeful however.

I wonder what sort of DLC we'll get. Probably side missions and multiplayer skins.

>>2478560
>Id’s developers are intentionally slowing the pace when making demo videos
Well that takes care of one concern.

>comparing DOOM’s hero to “Bruce Lee with a shotgun on a skateboard.”
What?
This doesn't even make sense.
You might as well say Doomguy is Miyamoto Musashi with a coachgun on rollerskates.

Doom Guy is known for having a shotgun, and he is really fucking fast. Makes sense to me.

>>2478618
Honestly, I hate to say it but i'd rather take the "piss yellow" (it's a fucking metal processing plant what do you expect) over a sterile gray environment.

>>2476949

>>2478628

Yeah, I just made it for the sake of making it look different.

>>2478058
Except half of the new "brutalized" monsters turn into recolors when gibbed, and loose unique graphic touches/edits made to their sprites, and therea are things like when you gib a dark pinkie, it spawns gibs (arms and all) of a regular one etc.

Otherwise PB does right a lot of things regular BD did wrong. Oh and Saw swinging.

>>2475690
>>2478184
it does look better
the melee in particular is faster and more integral to gameplay, from what they've showed

>>2478309
You sure you're converting angles to Doom standards right?
http://zdoom.org/wiki/Definitions

Also it may be useful to go to ZDoom IRC and ask gurus. They are often helpful, when they are there.

Are there any mods with the same amount of gore/death animations and shit that brutal doom has but that dont change the difficulty levels and the enemies making them insanely fucking harder.
Jesus christ.
I finally decided to give brutal doom a go and half my wad collection is literally unplayable.
>take a lift/open a door
>get instakilled
Fuck this.
Why did he have to up the difficulty up to this bullshit level to the point of making 99% of community made levels unplayable?

>>2478678
Beautiful Doom is the most commonly suggested alternative.

>>2477997
>scythe
>too slaughtery

But it only has like 3 maps altogether that were complete slaughterfests. And 2 of them arent even that hard.

>>2478692
the creator started working on that again, didn't he
did anything come out of that

>>2478184
It looks more open than the first. The gameplay they showed was in coop mode, but both players went their separate ways into diffeerent paths for the most part. l honestly didn't expect this from Flying Wild Hog.

>>2478743

>>2478618

>super chainsaw

Ah, so it does have a proper sawing not-insta-kill mode.

>>2478770
Seems more to me like he was using the normal mode.

>>2478678
Smooth Doom might do. Its point is to have varied enemies and death animations. It makes a point of not changing any balance though, if that's a problem.

Also includes option for blood splatter option that does a pretty good job of painting everywhere and pointblank ssg kills force gib deaths on every monster, so you might like that.

Quickly, how do I set jumping by default on GZDoom?
I was playing Plutonia2.wad sometime before, and now after continuing my playthrough I found every time I load the wad it resets to default.
I remember fixed this before (when moving from zdoom to gzdoom) but it was like 5 years ago and I don't fucking remember what kind of old magicks were used.

>>2478821
sv_allowjump 1

>>2478821
Maps can say to disable jumping by default unless you deliberately override it with sv_jump 2. See if it does that on stock Doom 2 maps, most mapsets are built for classic play and choose to disable jumping

>>2478827
fyi sv_jump controls both sv_allowjump and sv_nojump, 0 is default, 1 is force off and 2 is force on.

>>2476978

Shit, Mick Gordon's doing the soundtrack for Doom too?

I can look forward to that.

Doom was my first deathmatch fps online over a dial up modem. I remember you couldn't jump but the game was still pretty fun. I thought it was amazing honestly the first time i watched my friend shotgun blast an imp too.

Leaked footage of the Doom remake DLC, apparently it will also include Doom 2.

Carmack said that's what they were working on before he left. Not particularly easy to use, however.

>>2479070
>>>classic mode
>What would this entail? No jumping or Y axis aim? Not gonna happen.
The idea would be to change the gameplay to the classic mechanics, but keep the open movement so that enemies are more threatening.
Medkits and ammo only available using pickups in the level, glory-kills only for the berserk pack powerup, no cutscene chainsaw and original player weapon behaviour as well as monster attacks (but keep the open movement)

>>2475823
>close to death pickup face
That scared the shit out of me as a kid

>>2479074
How the fuck are you able to play the rest of the game without fear but the little face scares you

>>2479070
>>>post processing options
>No fugging idea.

I want to say that this would allow you to enable and disable certain kinds of post processing filters. For example, The Evil Within (a game which uses idtech 5, and miraculously runs at 30FPS despite said engine being built for 60FPS) has a console command that allows you to disable all post processing effects, which can't be toggled in the graphics menu. r_skipglare 1 or something to that extent.

>>2479084
It runs at 120 on my system, after some commandline fuckery, I have no fucking clue why they arbitrarily limited it to 30, it looked goddamned horrid and hurt my eyes.

>>2479014
>>2479017
>>2479028
>>2479034
>>2479040
Speaking of music, I just woke up from a dream where I was playing a wad that pretended to be like a very normal Doom 1 ep1 level for as long as possible until after hitting a switch, the walls all fell away revealing a huge outdoor slaughtermap and "Don't Stop Me Now" started playing full blast. With these smug fucks all over the remaining walls.

Then I ran over to my PC like it was an urgent thing because dreams convince you they are profoundly important no matter how inane. Don't know what the plan was.

>>2479081
Doom monsters aren't scary.

>>2479094
faces aren't either

>>2479089
>TEW
>above 60FPS

I know the command lifts the frame cap, but isn't idtech5 capped at 60 due to physics? Or can it run above 60 with no problems? And TEW does have some impressive lighting effects in its defense, and is a Japanese console port. It's horrid with the letterboxing, film grain, low FoV, and 30FPS, but it's a rather beautiful fame without those console limitations. KB/M works like a charm, too.

>>2479101
the game is capped because the physics are tied to keyframes that get fucked up at higher rates.

So far as I know this is not a limitation inherent to the game engine, and the physics engine is discrete.

I ran it uncapped and only had very occasional weirdness (BF3 alpha neck stretchy kinda shit with ragdolls, occasional shit would just go flying on impact... WELL worth the smoothness and playability increase)

>>2479070
In idTech 5 you can "skip" post processing through the console, but that also gets rid of the most lighting effects, making it look like idTech 3 stuff. You might get more luck with "color grading" options.

Maybe we'll be able to get ENB working with it, or SweetFX at least.

>>2479103
So TEW is somewhat "optimized" for >60FPS gameplay, you're saying? The only side effects appear to be very minor things at best, which might be fucking easy to patch. TEW is a pretty heavy game though, on launch it could barely hit 60 with an i7/980 combo. Now it can hit and keep 60 with an i5/970, but still dip when there's fire. Fire is a pretty big performance hog it seems, but I'll commend the Japanese on actually trying to fix the game.

MAP03 is now done

http://www.best-ever.org/download?file=gbadmplusv3.wad

>>2479113
I wasn't running it on ultra, i7 3770k/780ti.

High with a few postprocessing effects killed, easy 120fps, had to cap it, because 200+fps did actually result in some "oh god what the fuck" physics moments.

AFAIK it was optimized on a physics level for ~30fps, in other words CONSOLESCONSOLESetc.

>>2479116
delicious doom 64 styled levels.

Is there a mapset that's only uses doom 64 textures?

>>2479120
The game has very, very, VERY few configurable options, so you pretty much had to lower all 5 or so of the settings. Anti-aliasing is a joke, but that's due to idtech5 itself. I also recall that the game is pretty CPU intensive, so the i7 definitely gave you some overhead. It also only uses less than 2GB of VRAM at 1080p, despite recommending 4GB of VRAM. Both are holdovers from the next gen consoles, as both of them have 8-core CPUs, and unified RAM; they likely split the RAM into 4GB for system, and 4GB for video. If this is a "bare minimum console port" for the next gen, then things are shaping up a bit.

>>2479131
Config file modding, not in-game options. In game options was more terrifying than the horror elements of the game.

>>2479125

Nothing yet, but my friend Lance and I are planning on it

>>2479132
Hah, I see. So I guess the settings are 'maxed' by default, or can they be set higher?

>>2479140
I think they can, but my hardware choked on it, and it was nearly bleeding edge at the time, so I never fucked with it.

Shadow texture size and AA can be dicked with beyond default specs, I believe.

>>2479134

Made a server

GBA Doom Deathmatch Remake V3

>>2479141
Ah, alright then. Well my system can 'max out' TEW, and I put a sweet FX filter on it as well, it looks really nice now despite being a bit sharp. But that's not /vr/, neither was this whole tangent, so I apologize.

Who even needs Doom 4 anyway?

>>2475682
It is bowl of human feces.

>>2479167

but yeah needs a DXHR approved piss filter

>>2479167

>your face when the item balance in the new doom = someone's first ever decorate mod

also some monsters gave you ammo depending of the weapon you had in your inventory.

>>2479167
needs a palette change ammo drops and that'll be perfect

>>2479147
No worries. And I think there was some real optimization tweaking between release -> now/recent, so that's beleivable.

Also I run at 144hz so my standard of "choke" is a little more bitchy than yours most likely.

>>2479167
I'm actually kinda excited for Doom 4 and I still wanna see this with a piss filter, artificially sped up Burtel Dumb animations that don't require a zerk pack, and ammo drops.

>>2479215
There was an update around December that SUBSTANTIALLY fixed performance, and removed the 30FPS cap. Well, they added a 30FPS cap as well as a 60FPS cap, though the framerate is a bit choppy even at 60. So I uncapped it and manually set it to 60, looks real nice.

>>2479218
Shame to see games with such potential get shit reputations because of exceedingly dumb design decisions.

I'm still salty Gauntlet introduced a forced 60fps cap after people complained their laptops were overheating and refused to turn on vsync. Ruin my experience because someone with a potato that doesn't have proper cooling can't NOT click a button? Sounds perfect. Thanks WB.

Hexen mapbuilder here

I have a map with randomly raising and lowering floors, and I'm wondering how to limit their movement (so they dont go down too far, or up too high)

I've tried using pic related (in the red box) as my limiting script, but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there an easier way? or is my script just not right?

Thanks mate, I'll try that. I asked in the editing forum but no one answered; maybe the irc is better.
