I prefer angled because you can make much cooler sprites with it. Gives a better sense of the weapon's shape.

But it should be a relatively narrow angle with the weapon rather close to the center. Can't stand when it looks like the shotgun in hl2, way fucking off to the side at a crazy angle.

guys why is Scythe so damn good

>> No.3322498

ijon, is commonfuncs something you would consider adding other functions to even if you don't use them?
I ask cause I feel silly having separate files for other things.
It's mainly things like asin or sec, and potentially some math const definitions (like e, pi, etc) which while you can of course do now it's easier to read asin instead of the long atan2 definition.

Would adding things like fake pointers be something you would be interested in if it requires two map scope arrays?

Also while looking up the definition for asin just now cause curious, I think I figured out what caused the law of sines version of projectile intercept to not work. That will teach me for trusting a google book about ruby for atan2 definitions.

Agreed. I made a pretty big map for DUMP 3. After being away from it for two weeks and going back to change things, I get bored to death playing the full 25 - 30 minute UV-max run.

I don't mean to be an elitist but I can tell by post content who primarily plays mods and who exclusively plays on Gzdoom. The kind of people who loosen the tie and go wild by having their "vanilla but better" experiences.

I honestly have an opinion that everyone who thinks Doom 1 is intense and difficult is memeing, or marketing, or band-wagoning trying to convince you they played Doom "back in the day". It's these people who have troubles with Plutonia and E4 and think Scythe turns to shit by the third act.

I tried it on Hurt Me Plenty for about 2 maps on XBONE, so disclaimer.

The map design is thus:
>encounter a wide area with some enemies
>you cannot leave or move on until they are dead
>not all of them are there at the beginning; they're spawned in
>kill them all
>move on through a linear area
>repeat

There are 2 big differences between the original and the new you should be paying attention to.

>linear design
>enemies spawn in

In the original doom, players who planned ahead and managed resources with foresight and situational awareness were rewarded.
Now, there is no going back for supplies, instead you can supplement health with glory kills. And more importantly, since enemies can spawn behind you, your combat situational awareness you used in the original Doom is useless here.
So the game takes tools that smart players could use away, and gives stupid tools that require no thinking in return.

So it's fun for awhile, but gets boring fast.

Probably not that great overall, since I kinda didn't get as much out of the aesthetic style as I thought I could. But still.
I would like to note that there is some ammo-scarcity, so you might want to use the berserker pack that you find in arena. I like the concept of finale, but it might be rather unbalanced, especially with infinite-height actors.

Well I mean more like will it be integrated into the "main" (read: your) version, since it does no good for anyone but me if mine has these functions but is based on an outdated version of your version (which will happen, if I'm being honest with myself) and anyone that wants those functions has to find and merge the two files.

I have been kicking around the idea of creating an expanded acs function pack that would basically be an alternative to alternative compilers. Most of the stuff would just be functions from other languages. Possibly even some stuff that would require a couple of variables and scripts like fake pointers (that you could also use as fake variables if you needed to, since that's what they really are) and fake arrays (well, fake unbound arrays that you can create within a script) but that might be outside of the scope of something like that.

I'd strongly recommend you play on Nightmare. That's where the mechanics really come to life, including needing to consider your resources, choosing the weapon best suited for each enemy, and being conscious of enemy placement.

You're right that enemies can spawn from anywhere, but every enemy that's not melee-only has projectile attacks that will generally miss if you just keep moving and stay away from clearly dangerous spots.

It's definitely not classic Doom in terms of tactical decisions, but it has a lot more verve and interesting play than other "neo-old-school" shooters like Painkiller, Hard Reset, Serious Sam, Shadow Warrior, etc.

All enemies in Wolfenstein 3D have long reaction times before they start shooting and they announce themself when they see you, well except the mutants who are only in episode 2 and a few missions in Spear of Destiny. If you hear an enemy but don't see him then you can simply run out of the room and you will not take any damage.
Enemies just flinch while you hit them instead of shooting back.
And at last (excluding the dogs) all enemies drop more ammo than you need to kill them so you have practically infinite ammo.

Tries to carry on Doom legacy even though it was completely unnecessary.

Basically our community is able to keep this game alive through our own custom content that Carmack himself made sure was easily accessible. Doom2016 seems to be a lazy experiment in bringing that modding community to consoles, although I don't think there was a perfect enough storm for that to happen, I think not enough devs have that same care for the players input as Carmack did. All they really did was use the Halo Forge concept and applied it to a Arena fps with modern day UNIT SLOTTING™.

As a consequence, the game ends up being a game people will say "its good" but will use that high-pitched voice that tells you its mediocre and not really worth the time. There isn't really speedrunning potential, when the initial charm and normie-tier "oh my god retro level" goes away, it loses replay value.

I don't think its a bad thing this Doom happened though, I would rather have devs at least try, than cop-out with modern-military trash. So hopefully this popuralizes this kind of direction, and people can improve on it beyond the whole "look guys nostalgia" STRAFE™ gimmick.

P.S I can't believe the reason the Strafe dev is using random maps is because he got bored of knowing where everything was in Quake. That game like Doom has 1000s of levels worth playing. Unless you have Hyperthymesia... Hell of a game you want to recreate: a game with levels you get bored playing, great design direction guy.

Where, though? Anyway seems that will still be a while as I'm still finding bugs.
For whatever reason some of the map teleporters in DUMP 2 start the player view in the floor, breaking the default player information gathering at the start of my camera script. Using idclev doesn't have this issue.

I tried putting a delay at the start of the script, but that doesn't always work and gives the player time to crouch and break the info gathering (specifically, the player's viewheight). I wish I could delay the script until the map's fully loaded or whatever's going on. Might have to get default player information a different way.

Yeahhhh I think I just found out what the problem is, the smooth camera script is running between maps, comparing the Zheight of the player when in the teleporter to their Zheight at the start of the new map, and attempting to smooth it out, making the player tall on maps with a low starting Z height and a midget on maps with a high starting Z height.
Then the script re-runs as it's entered a new map (it's an ENTER script), and gathers incorrect info due to it having already altered the player's height.

Fuck.

For what it is, it's pretty decent.
Sure, it has it's faults, but it IS still Doom.

The first one has a bunch of cut levels and no spider or cyber.

The second one actually doesn't really cut out anything and it's pretty amazing that it all fits in there, at most, a few of the larger maps are slightly trimmed for size, two of the largest maps are split up into two-parters rather than having them utterly butchered.

A backside is that the AI in the second one is now very near sighted and literally won't recognize your existence beyond 50ft, so if you see an arch-vile in the distance, you can back off until he stops perceiving you and just plink away at him until he dies, because he won't move or respond unless you're close enough.

The reason we hate filtering in Doom or most 90's shooters is because its textures and sprites are too low res for them to have any desirable effect. It just makes everything look blurry or smudged.

Filters in modern games work because the textures are usually a high enough res for filters to actually successfully hide the pixelated look of them while still keeping the original look intact.

But why just four slots? Why not 10 or so like in Deus Ex? SS1 has a shitload more weapons, grenade types and medical items so having plenty of quick use slots would be even more important in its case. SS1's ever-present inventory helped you keep track of all that shit without having to sacrifice control and situational awareness. Quick use slots could fulfill that role and abbreviate the player's inventory like they did in Deus Ex but not by having only four items on display at a time, especially not in SS1 where there are many more types of items.

Because weapons are separate (you get 2 slots for those, oh my). Sshock 1 doesn't have that many items and most are situational anyway. Why 4 though? D-pad having 4 distinct buttons would be my guess.

Also adds to tension I guess, switching those up in combat (original game has no reload button, you have to click on your guns to load them)

Since you're making a separate infographic for mods, I agree with this anon >>3324119.

I think you should make another infographic, "So You Want To Play Some MM8BDM", which would of course be completely separate from the two Doom infographics.

G/ZDoom modding does have a ton of OC. Worth digging around definitely.

Zandronum stuff despite running on a slightly outdated version of ZDoom is kinda its own ballgame. Dunno if it's just me, but some of the popular stuff there is kinda shitty.

Colorful Hell. It adds ROYGBIV demons for extra randomized variance, with each color representing a gimmick and they're all definitely stronger than regular demons. Then there's also black and white demons which are rarer and so much more dangerous that you're given an announcement of their presence on map start.

I have no idea how rare Benellus is, but him appearing on the first level is an example of what fuckery can happen. Honestly not a fan of the mod overall because while it's pretty clear that it's designed to be ran with weapon or gameplay mods, some of it is a bit much.

Vanilla ice cream is great, liked by everyone, and the standard for ice cream.
However some people like mint, or chocolate, or cookies.

Some add caramel and some coat it on chocolate.
Some like banana split, or a plastic cone, or a stick instead of a cone.
Some like a bigger serve, or ice cream sandwich.

I think it's nice to have because it makes a weapon feel more real and thought out, it makes gameplay more immersive, and I like working it into my strategy, I pop out from behind a pillar or a corner and get fighting, then dive for new cover to reload.

Thing is though, I want reloading to be fast and efficient, and it's nice if you can interrupt it.

>>3324470
>it's my fallback excuse to make guns more powerful
This too, if you have a 7.62mm battle rifle, there would be little reason to have a 7.62mm GPMG if they do the same damage and have a similar rate of fire, capacity and reload speed is one good way to make them distinct from one another.

>>3324509
>It doesn't make sense to throw away the mag entirely though
It does make sense in an emergency, a tactical reload.

However, it would be nice if you could pick up dropped magazines from the ground when you have a "drop magazine" style reload.

I think it'd be tricky to keep track of though, code wise, at least if you count reloads by individual magazines instead of loose ammunition.
You could use round by round reloading, but then that'd kind of defeat the point of dropping a half loaded mag, you could just automatically assume in your head that your player character picks up the mag or drops it in a drop pouch for later, kind of like how you'd assume that the player character refills mags and stuff between levels.

A personally think that Smooth Doom and especially PK Sound Mod improve upon the vanilla experience, but otherwise gameplay mods are simply fun for the sake of variation. Some mapsets and gameplay mods mesh together really well in theme or gameplay.

It had/has actual real-world magazines that behaved properly, enabled with a menu option. They consolidated between levels. The only difference from real-world mags is they didn't chamber a round separate from the mag.

This didn't get removed like I thought, just changed from default mag setting to one that had to be selected. The default was magic reloading like most things. I did correctly recall the amount of bitching:

Just finished DOPA on Hard. That last level was a fucking monster. Like 8 Shamblers, 5 of them literally one after the other in a line. I think I ended with like 10 health and no ammo at all.

DOPA's design is a pretty good example of taking iD's map design philosophies and just making them better. There's a solid sense of progression and tricky fights with a big focus on ambushes, and ammo is surprisingly tight. Twice I had to lead enemies into traps to kill them to save ammo, and I had to exploit monster infighting to get past the last Shambler before the finale in E5End.

My only problem is how much they seem to enjoy instant death traps, especially ones where it seems extremely unlikely that someone could figure out what's going on before they get killed. It's one thing to restart a level from the top when I fuck up a fight - it's another when I press a button, fall down a pit, and a giant spike block runs me over in a few seconds.

That finishes my week-or-so binge of Quake 1, both expansions, and this new episode. I have a deeper respect now for Quake's single player, though I think I still prefer Doom in the end.

I've seen realistic reloading done right in one game:

The Zone of Alienation mod for STALKER SoC.

You'd have to manually reload the mags yourself, round by round, and it had a whole millieu of mag reloading animations and everything.

Thing is though, shit like that only works in games like STALKER -- games with downtime areas like the Bar, games that make inventory management part of the game, etc.

It's not going to be fun in doom because doom isn't a tac shooter with a streamlined inventory management system and hours of "exploration" downtime. Basically, doom is too fast paced for that sort of thing -- you only add inventory management in games where walking between objectives over open land is a thing.

Honestly, I think now that I "get" how Quake works, I might like the original episodes more now if I replayed them. The mechanics didn't end up clicking for me until I started playing the expansions. That said, the mission packs had more Doom-like level design compared to the boxes-and-hallways of stock Quake, especially Scourge.

Did you play past nothing but the first level of each episode? If anything boxes and hallways is Doom's thing, Quake is way, way more intricate with its levels. That's what made Machinegames' expansion feel so shitty to me, so many tiny, cramped hallways that restrict player movement and are out of place compared to the base game and expansions.

Quake is certainly layered in the sense of its true 3D allowing for multiple z-axis levels that you can move between, but Doom just has way more variety in its architecture - wide open spaces, curving hallways, and even dramatic shifts in the level itself, like the walls coming down after killing the Barons in E1M8 or the level opening up whole new sections that reinterpret the architecture you just went through in E3M9. Say what you will about how bad many of the levels in Doom 2 were, but the sheer weirdness of the architecture in, say, MAP16, gave real personality to them.

Comparatively, Quake just feels like taking a few Wolfenstein 3D levels, smashing them together, and then varying them in 3D space so you're going up and down between them. They just didn't feel very different and none stood out to me, and that's not just because they're all brown.

Absolutely no problem at all. Generally, you can steal whatever you want from a video game and no one will care (take QStuff Ultra for example, which includes the majority of Quake's assets). Stealing from other modders without credits/permission is a real hot-button issue though.

>DOPA's design is a pretty good example of taking iD's map design philosophies and just making them better.

I strongly disagree. When it's not fucking you over with instant death traps like you mentioned, DOPA as an episode felt monotonous and predictable. Its fight designs were very simplistic and unambiguous. There are clear dichotomies between one fight and the next, like it's very explicit when one fight ends and another begins. You could put an autosave checkpoint system in the levels and it would feel right at home.

In id level design, there is ambiguity in fights. There are often situations where an enemy attacks you, but fighting him right then and there may not be the best decision to make. There is ambiguity in gauging how much of a persistent threat an enemy will be if you choose to ignore him. This is especially true for ogres, the most commonly used enemy in Quake. Their elevated positions, the complex level geometry, and the grenade physics keep fighting them from a disadvantageous position difficult. Sometimes you hold off and attack them later and it pays off, sometimes it doesn't and you end up giving yourself a harder time.

In DOPA level design, the best time to kill an enemy is always right when you first see him. That is, if you want to kill him. DOPA's levels also make ignoring enemies easy because they have a very linear progression. 9 times out of 10, if you bypass an enemy, you won't have to fight him again.

Speaking of ogres, one of the subtler things I've noticed about DOPA is its use, or rather, misuse of ogres. Throughout Quake's original levels and in many custom levels, ogres have been commonly used as harassers from above whereas in DOPA, you fight them at ground level all the time.

Rather than taking id design and making them better, DOPA feels like a compromise between id level design and modern FPS level designs which have plenty of compartmentalization.

>In id level design, there is ambiguity in fights. There are often situations where an enemy attacks you, but fighting him right then and there may not be the best decision to make.

It's interesting you said that, because I feel that's very true for Doom, but I never really felt that way in Quake. There are plenty of times in Doom where I choose to book it instead of fight, and usually that's because there's either a really strong enemy or lots of enemies and just not enough ammo or a good enough weapon to make the fight tolerable or even possible. There is a wide enough variety between weak, strong, and heavy enemies and usually so many at one time that, along with considering attack pattern and the level architecture, I'm always in a position of picking and choosing targets and deciding what's worth running from.

In contrast, there are so few enemies at one time in Quake and so many of them take a lot of hits -- the Ogre that you mentioned being the most common takes four super shotgun hits -- that there wasn't really much for me to think about except "do I have the ammo right now to kill this guy?" It almost felt more like Wolfenstein than Doom - upon entering a room, I just quickly scanned for who's the biggest threat and what weapon will kill them fastest, and just let loose, the only real tactical decisions being ammo conservation. I only played on Hard, so I don't know if Nightmare is where that ambiguity really comes in.

I do normally hate that compartmentalization you're talking about in neo "old school" shooters like Serious Sam, Painkiller, etc., and DOPA definitely has "combat sections," like being dropped into a sewer with three Shamblers or being surrounded by enemies the moment you pick up the Quad Damage. But I guess I feel like Quake is just dumber than Doom, and is better suited toward those high-intensity shootouts.

Maybe I'll replay the base game again, or find some highly rated custom maps.

If you're just going to play one custom map, I suggest you make it this one. I find that it holds many of the level and encounter design doctrines in the original levels true, but really pushes the difficulty of encounters and enemy placement to make them really tactical and demand a lot of conscious decision-making from the player.

Huh. So what I'm talking about would work?
See, here's the idea.
You start in a techbase-y level, which is basically a big circle around a massive arena, and you occasionally have windows down to it, showing that it's absolutely ass full of monsters all pointed to a building in the center. The level eventually leads to a stock the fuck up room with shitloads of ammo and health and armor and that stuff, with a teleporter that leads you to the building in the center.
>Sky started out as gray moon color
>Once you're in the building, it turns blood red

I'm debating either having switches along the sides of the arena to open up the end of level teleport, or just putting it on a timer so it's

As for the techbase level itself, I kinda want it to be separated into three 'wings,' where in the first, you're basically stuck with a pistol, very little ammo for your shotgun, and a chainsaw, and once you've essentially made it through most of it, a shitload of Archviles spawn in, making you run away to the second wing until you can fight them. The second one would be E2 style corrupted techbase, with some hellish architecture and green marble and shit, with a lot of teases to the arena in the form of wide open areas that monsters teleport into, but here would be where you get all of the weapons and ammo to fight the Archviles with, and once you're done with it, you have to go back through to the first wing to get a key that opens the third up, so by now, the Archviles have brought back all of the enemies you killed, including a lot of skeletons, since before they came at you one at a time in close quarters so you could just chainsaw them, but now they're all in one go. The third wing would then be much slower and based more on basic puzzles to cool you down for the arena it leads to.

I really enjoy it. The weapons feel great and the art design is excellent. Probably the best FPS released in a decade, though I do have my issues with it. The first half of the levels really need more demons in them. The boss fights were neat but after killing them once I'd have liked to see them thrown in with the horde afterwards, even if you take out shit like the cyberdemon's erect pillar lane move or the hell guards' shield.

Music-wise it's amazing. I was skeptical about it at first but it feels great when it kicks in. I'm not a "muh djents" fag and tend to play classical arrangements and rock and roll but it really made me want a 7 string if only to bust out BFG Division. Soundtrack is really simple and crisp in a brilliant way.

Without any suit power Freeman is actually not that resilient either in a game full of hitscan, and the pitiful damage from some weapons means you'll likely eat some hits. I've yet to die and are mainly using shotgun + AR2 since their ammo is a tad easier to come by.

this is my biggest problem with the game as well.

I'm not meaning this for hyperbolic value, but holy fuck, that gun has to be the deadest, soulless-feeling weapon in FPS history bar none. I can't believe just how did Valve not come to their senses and realize how fucking hollow it is feedback-wise, and how forcing EVERY SINGLE ENEMY and nearly EVERY SINGLE AMMO PICKUP has it laying around -somewhere- wasn't a ass-backwards choice.

You can fix that with scripts, change the carry values, change the damage values.

I use scripts to make the subgun hurt just as much as the pistol, allow me to carry more ammo for it, and then have a graphics replacement for it.

The pulse rifle is good overall, as is the shotgun, but they only let you carry little ammo for them, just doubling the amount of ammo you can carry for both makes the game a lot more fun.
