Could a mod where all the weapons are replaced with varieties of shotgun even work out? I'm thinking of making my first gameplay mod and I've been kicking this idea around in my head for a couple weeks now.

OP pic reminded me that I used to think the pistol and shotgun had faces that looked back at you while playing.
I also thought the corpse in E1M1 was a caterpillar

I miss seeing the game like that some days

don't get a head of yourself

>>4708781
there's enough WADs with several different shotguns, do we need another one?

>>4708813
Who give a fuck about NEED? I"m doing this because I WANT to do it, but I'm questioning the feasibility of it, of whether the concept could work.

>>4708816
jesus then why are you asking if you're going to be so defensive, go make a wad and see if your shotgun boogaloo is any fun

>>4708816
Best way to find out is to just attempt it and see how it goes. I personally enjoy all manners of shotgun so I'd say go for it, see where your imagination takes you.

>>4708820
>defensive
>never answered whether the concept could work, just bitched about "too many shotguns"
k

>>4708823
Yeah I suppose asking about ideas in my head isn't gonna do much. Nvm then, I'll come back when I have something to show.

>>4708319
>Corvette
Another one joining the Doom Mod Waifus harem, I see.
that cringey name, tho

>>4708828
is it
>I play old FPSes and am in love with a genderswapped version of the player character
or is it
>I play old FPSes and identify as a female, so I want to genderswap the player character so I can play as a female in game as well as real life
?

>>4708781
> all the weapons are replaced with varieties of shotgun
There is already a mod like that. And it's fucking hilarious

>>4708830
does it really matter much?

>>4708830
mod fluff says she's supposed to be a daughteru of Corvus, boasting a "classic/lite" version of playstyle

>>4708831
You mean too many super shotguns?

That mod would be a lot better if it had more consistency and the different weapons didn't have such massive power differences, the most powerful weapon in the mod isn't even a shotgun.

>>4708841
I think he means the good one, the OG shotgun mod.
Shotguns.wad

>>4708841
> too many super shotguns
Yeah, that!
Sure, it's unbalanced, but it is a joke mod so it's ok.

>>4708832
Depends what you mean by "matter". In philosophical terms there is a huge difference between "I want to marry the girl" and "I want to be the girl". In terms of gameplay it is largely irrelevant compared with factors such as how powerful the weapons are and how fast you move and so on.

Now that you can quickly and easily change soundfonts on the fly in GZDoom, what soundfont would you say is your favorite?

Go google some downloadable soundfonts, stuff them into a soundfont folder in your directory and experiment.
Have fun everyone

What happened to DrPySpy's revenant sprites?

>>4708869
..and yes, that is KK Slider from Animal Crossing as a soundfont

For a good time, call Jenny.

>>4708884
There's an email address in the right stall too

This is the most middle finger-y of the sights yet.

>>4708892
fuck, wrong one

>>4708894
I hope these are going to have cool little robotic sound effects for each movement

big enough

>>4708905
That's the plan, and a lot of chunks, clicks, and clacks.
I think I'm gonna use that really nice clicky sound of the Sten reload from Return to Castle Wolfenstein for the shotgun shell eject animation, and probably the pump sounds from E.Y.E.'s Depezador shotgun.

>>4708935
You mean it's not a goatee?

>>4708997
Sorry, I didn't see the full title written in the last thread anywhere. I didn't actually download it.
>>4709001
"Anon map/mod release" is more like a convention for stuff released here by now, but point taken, perhaps it was a poor choice but like I say it's become the convention for newsposts by now.

>>4708997
it's the filename, right there, "soundless_m", with _m assumedly being an identifying mark of an author

if there was supposed to be more information, then you should've said so. do better next time.

>>4709037
I didn't say anything, I just released it, and everyone who opened it knew right away what the map is named.

>>4709037
Chill the fuck out and be grateful your project got listed up in there in the news, I know you're hungry for attention and validation but that shit doesn't jive here.
If your content is good, then people will grow to learn it's yours just from the content alone.

>>4708997
Now that's just being nitpicky.

>>4709040
Would you be willing to say what the full title is so it can be edited into the next newspost? Alternatively, if you'd prefer, the item can be removed. Otherwise, simply left as-is. Please let us know, thanks in advance.

>>4709051
It's called Soundless Mound.

Pun's kinda lost otherwise desu.

Hey Hege, would you also consider making a Corvus outfit?

>>4709154
Hi, notGraf.

On a serious note, what about an outfit that has a dedicated wizard/witch/magical girl theme on it? Seems to be the one thing missing from the mod IMO, though "technically" the entire premise of the mod is purely magical already.

>>4709173
The only cute shambler is a dead shambler.

>>4709178
Schierke costume when?

Getting into Hexen. Were jumping and crouching originally a part of it?

>>4709212
Only jumping.

>>4709221
That explains how I managed to get myself stuck. Thanks anon.

>>4709226
did you get stuck in a small crevice or something? are you a cat by perchance?

>>4709273
I dropped into one of the little switch rooms in the guardian of steel map and locked myself in. I'm not a cat but i'm about as smart.

>>4709226
you *can* make yourself smaller by way of the porkalator, but you either have to be hit by a porkalator trap or reflect it off a centaur shield to do so

>grenade launcher in d4t

And not just in MetaDoom, but even High Noon Drifter's grenades do this
Am i the only one who sees this?

Okay it's still buggered after the GPL change. Guess I have to use the exact same soundfont through FluidSynth again.

>>4709383
Is Valiant worth playing?
That 7.1 on Moddb doesn't seem encouraging.

>>4709414
the fuck does moddb know? it's skillsaw's magnum opus. play it. it'll probably whip your ass, because it's hard. but it's a good hard.

>>4709425
Alright I'll do it.
Sometimes when a mod get's an 8 it's actually mediocre there so I wasn't too sure.

Btw here's the most recent review there.

Action Doom is fun.

>>4708750
Which map?

When you have so many wads but you don't know which one to finish first.
Which should I remove and which should I keep /vr/?

>>4709456
Doom the way id did doesn't really feel like id made maps, and it's not really that fun, at least for me it's not

Got all six doors working now: https://youtu.be/4PbsH4iOIK0

>>4709453
if you mean
>the one simply designed level that spawned a subgenre of maps was used to introduce two new monsters at the same time
then i'm guessing map07

>>4709383
Fuck, those secret maps always look so cool but I'm always afraid I'm gonna miss them. I'm pretty good when it comes to finding secrets, but not secret levels. Tips on finding secret levels?

>>4709481
look on map15 or map31 or e1m3 or e2m5 or e3m6 or e4m2. that's where the secret exits always are.

>>4708859

She's Corvus' daughter, so she fights in a similar fashion as he did in Heretic, but with some improvements. Rather than the absurd martial arts sorcerer powerhouse he's become murderizing everything in his path across dimensions :)

>>4708868

It all started from Icarus thinking Corvus was a sexy mage lady

>>4709434

Hey there, will you sign my petition ?

>>4709456
You haven't finished any of those yet? I'd give top priority to No Rest For The Living, Scythe, DTWID, and UAC Ultra

>>4709473
Also known as the "Contractual Obligation" level.

when building maps is there any reason why you would have a key over just having a switch that opens what would have been the key door and vice versa?

In doom level there are often times where you have to hit a switch in order to open a door, this is really not much different than picking up a key and going to said door.

>>4709519
because when you have a color coded key you know exactly what door to go through

>>4709519
They give sort of a sense of objective. Sure switches can do that too, but keydoors make players think they are getting closer to their goal.

>>4709456
i believe HONTE is a remake of doom2 with high res textures and gzdoom effects out of the anus. as such, it's guaranteed to be utter drivel. i recommend you delete it immediately.

>>4709519
Well, if you have a key, you can also have multiple doors that it opens in different parts of the level and a player knows that and can see those doors on the automap. While if you have a switch open more than one door, it's just confusing.
So a switch is basically linear scripted progression (or for puzzles), while keys allow for exploration.

>megawads are good

>>4709521
you can have colour coded switches though, just use the door trims appropriately or even make re-colour them

i agree with >>4709532 though they feel more like progression especially as you know there are a maximum of three

>>4709540
maybe the map maker has an ambush/combat scenario behind the door that would be ruined by opening the door with a far-away switch

progress report on minidido, playing on skill2. i'm three hours game time in. i've got all the weapons and 5 keys (not found yellow card yet). still 1700 monsters alive out of 3000+. i have 15/21 secrets. i'm loving exploring the unknown, but whether i'll be able to face replaying it ever remains to be seen.

>>4709546
that's easy, just put coloured bars in front of the door.

>>4709510
I've played like 10 levels or 20,but never finished them completely.
Some of them I've downloaded them recently.

>>4709503
no way you fricking pinko

I've been out of the loop for four months. what doom news or drama have I missed?

>>4709473
That being dm maps?

>>4709518
Why is it known as that?

>>4709632
>doom news
off the top of my head, gmota v1.0 released, square episode 2 released, doom 2016 2 rumors
>drama
who gives a fuck

>>4708987
lol

>>4709636
Because every mapset with a Map07 uses the mancubus and arachnotron death specials. Most of them aren't even creative about it and just knock off the same formula as Dead Simple.

Don't respond or engage.

>>4709692
>>4709694
it's really cool that instead of giving him an actual answer you decided to jump for being a shitter

>>4709702
That's what Graf said, yes.
>>4709705
Uh, what? Those are answers, why else do you think Graf made this survey?

>>4709705
the actual answer is in the news post.

>>4709702
too bad gzdoom is literally the only doom port ever made and nobody has the source code to make their own fork if they don't like what graf is doing

You really hate humour don't you? Especially humour that gets the point across nonetheless? Geez. Last time someone dared to make a joke around here it got the same hostile reaction.

>>4709725
He apologized, why are you being a shithead?

>>4709698
It's not really about laziness and more about it all being unmaintainable old crap. We're talking about shit like OpenGL 2, for example, which is like a decade old at this point.

>>4709736
I just took the thing out of context.
Sorry.

Don't fight guys, do it for me...

Question about retro fps weapons.
Is there an incredibly powerful weapon that is not satisfying to use?
Maybe is for the sound it makes or because is stupidly OP.

if the adventures of square is a game on its own (sort of), then is there any mod or fanmade map for it, or do we have to wait until episode 3 comes out and see what happens?

>>4709692
What the fuck even constitutes "toaster support"?

>>4709780
It'd be really neat to make a mod to see what happens.

>>4709782
Support for Windows XP, for example. Or GPUs that are over a decade old.

>>4709782
OpenGL 2 is something he really wanted to get rid of, because it would allow him to greatly optimize the renderer on newer hardware. Too many people reported still using it though, so it's been put off. What is getting the axe are legacy software renderer backends, because not even ten people reported being unable to use anything else. Taking them out means that when there's something to add to the software renderer, it only has to be done once instead of four times for the different backends, and on the user side we'll be able to change between software and OpenGL on the fly without restarting GZDoom.

If they had to make a sequel to Quake 1,or reboot,which things would you keep and remove?

>>4709802
remove the HUHs so people can stop posting them every few posts.

>>4709805
HUH

>>4709806
I like QC ranger but he needs them bare teeth.
also a more pronounced frown.

>>4709802
Make the axe a viable weapon and either get rid of spawns or make them actually fun to fight. Also actual boss fights would be nice.

>>4709802

>remove?

>>4709715
Maybe one day you'll evolve into a real janitor.

>gzdoom 3.3.2
>Exports P_ActivateLine to ZScript (along with constants for activation type)
Oh yes, it's time for more ZScript crimes

>>4709434
is that an actual weapon? the clipboard? can you thwap people with it?

>>4709818
These definitely must go away.

>>4709652
My mistake then. The message is still there and hopefully he read it.

>>4709815
I agree, I just don't have many images of classic Ranger. I stopped paying QC when I learned about the jank ass coding that tied fire rate to framerate, but I always saw OG Ranger as less of an old man and more just fat faced.

>>4709036
In regards to releases, I still name people if they have identities.

>>4709817
Make Cthon a normal enemy that can be spawned in, with legs. Make his meteors the same speed, so that he's at least easier to take down, and make him take damage from all weapons.

Remove spawns, and then make the shamblers take normal rocket damage. Then, make the axe have a longer range and better damage, like double shotgun levels of damage.
Make shub niggurath actually attack with lightning or something, and spawn in less enemies on that level. that way it feels like more pressure, but all you're doing is shifting the amount of shamblers in the room and putting the lightning attacks in the center of the map.

Have to admit,these don't look bad at all.

>>4709839
You're only encouraging name/tripfags by doing that

>>4709840
>and then make the shamblers take normal rocket damage
what? thats part of their uniqueness, it makes fighting them more interesting that you cant just spam rockets

>>4709823
I thought you'd be a bit more wary of that kind of hackery after your recent experience with 3.3 breaking your vinesauce entry and having to pray the swede doesn't upgrade.

>>4709840
There is one thing that worries me,it that it might be way too similiar to Doom 4.Think about it,a lot of the power ups from Quake are there.
I wish they could bring the power ups from the expansions,that would be cool.
And of course,music composed by Trent Reznor.

Do you think Glory Kills might work?

>>4709852
It's more giving credit where it's due. Not like we already have a clique of ZDoom modders already, too.

>>4709854
Not really, soundless mound was using pretty standard 3.2.5 features.

>>4709852
I'm not even using a tripcode anymore.

What are some good monster replacers? Colorful Hell is great, but I'm looking to change it up a bit.

>>4709859
Nah to glory kills. Ranger's more scared than aggressive and GKs remind us a bit too much about private petrol's pet creation.

>>4709878
Bratwurst and the kriegsland enemies only pack if you wanna fight the goofy goosesteppers from wolf3d

>>4709859
Nah, no Glory Kills, but an AXE button would be cool, it AXEs when you push it.

>>4709886
>Ranger's more scared than aggressive
I picture him being more tired and pissed off

What if their was a Doom map but everything activated Quake-style (ie by walking near it)

>>4709889

I forgot about Bratwurst, fuckin classic.

>>4709364
>>4709402

...just why would you ever do that to yourself? The default windows MIDI sound is objectively the worst I've ever heard. Actually, given that the instruments sounding like ass is far from the only problem with it, you can probably scratch the "i've ever heard" part out.

>>4709893
Ranger is anything but scared,in Q3 manual it says he becomes nasty when he can't find a challenge and he's by far,the only character who actually says a real sentence.

For Glory Kills I think they might work.
Something quick with the axe.Clean cuts,slash them.
Nothing of "I cut off your arm and beat you with it".Keep the pace.

>>4709916
I don't really want more stop n go melee. Just have him lash out with the axe and depending on where it lands the killing blow, have them react, but don't take control away from the player, not for a single moment.

>>4709916
>Just brutal efficient limb removal with the axe instead of going purely for brutality like Doomslayer
Would be pretty cool to have this differentiate the two

>>4709920
Maybe they can do more with the axe,instead of glory kills,something like cutting the ogre's arm that wields the grenade launcher so he will be forced to only use the chainsaw.
Same with the hammer of course.

>>4709920
Die by the Sword dismemberment mod when?

>>4709539

>>4709947
>>4709953
STOP

>>4709947
Based HUHposter

>>4709929
I had a silly idea pop up one time, about Ranger wielding a thunder axe.

He would recharge it either through cells or some rune magic mumbo-jumbo and when full, could smash it to the ground sending electric shockwave like Mjolnir or use it as a weaker quad melee attack.

Another idea was that he could use the axe to resurrect a corpse ala frankenstein and have a temporal ally on his side, similar to that horn from the mission pack.

>>4709931
When more than five people remember that game?

>>4709414
>That 7.1 on Moddb doesn't seem encouraging.
Same Moddb that gave Brool Tood 64 the mod of the year award.

>>4709802
I want the more interesting characters from Quake 3/QC to have their own gameplay and stories somewhere/somehow that aren't in QC itself. Like Visor's cheeki breeki Russkie shenanigans or a Trespasser clone with Hunter and the Sorg ('unique' health meter included).

>>4709840
You can already make a killable Chthon in Q1 through map hacks, although he's still limited to one location and has no legs.

>Remove spawns,
cry more bitch niggur, one rocket kills them or just a couple shotgun rounds, just strafe away when they leap at you and kill them before they can double back so you're clear of the explosion
> then make the shamblers take normal rocket damage.
Why? Seriously, why?
>Then, make the axe have a longer range and better damage, like double shotgun levels of damage
what the goddamn fuck

>>4709802
Some way to integrate the Q1 and Q2 universes without ruining everything and actually making a pretty cool thing. Also agreeing with the anons that a more useful axe and proper boss fights would be really welcomed.

>>4709971
Brutal Doom 64 is not bad,but it's full of issues.
IIRC Arcane Dimensions came out that year and it didn't win.

>Brutal Doom 64 is not bad,but it's full of issues.
Yeah, I don't even dislike the brutal stuff as much as other anons here, but I think 64 was just too mediocre and lackluster to deserve the award.

>>4710005
>not bad
it completely ruins the atmosphere of the original

>>4709997
Some references to the Strogg would be neat,of course it should be the main focus the whole Lovecraftian universe.
Maybe adding Cthulhu as a boss,a titan-sized boss is not really common in FPS games these days.

I only hope they don't focus way too much on Ranger backstory,I don't want it to make the same mistake as Wolfenstein 2 with cutscenes

>>4710024
>Cthulhu
Boring.

Whatever they do in a hypothetical Q1 remake/sequel, I just hope they keep the industrial and crude look of the guns as well as their brutal sound effects. None of this overdesigned stapler gun shit from QC.

>>4710041
How do you feel about QC's interpretations of the Q1 weapons?

>>4710031
How is a winged muscular giant with an octopus head, boring?
It has potential, there was just a regular dragon in one of the expansions.

>>4710052
Because there's an absolute laundry list of things to pull from the writings of Lovecraft and his buddies and Cthulhu is already used in every piece of mainstream Hot Topic media in existence to the point of being goddamn boring.

>>4710046
They're pretty cool, they actually made me wonder why couldn't they do something similar to that instead of the overdesigned shit we got for the main weapons.

>>4710059
It's that bad that there are dating games about him and everything.

Not to mention games about Lovecraft having a fight with Tesla.

>>4710059
>>4710069
We need some Nyarlathotep here. That guy is underrated.

>>4710059
I still think it's still a great concept but I'll give you that, he's too used and wouldn't stand out.
Wish they would redesign Shub
though, making her with more tentacles and gigantic,making her look more terrifying.

>>4710063
Probably to set 'em apart, I guess. Remember, Q:C's arsenal is a remake of Q3A's, not Q1's, which includes the weapon color coding for both the default models themselves and HUD/pickups (green rail, red rockets, teal shaft, etc). The nailgun directly takes the place of the plasma gun (which is coming back in a skin form soon anyway), and they included Q1 versions of some of the weapons for people who want 'em while also allowing them to use other fan-favorite skins like the Q2 railgun. Still waiting for centered Q1 shotgun skins, though.

>>4710074
Shub's somewhat underwhelming design is almost guaranteed to be a matter of technical limitations and really, really rushed development, given how well Carmack and co. (A, not J) pulled off the suggestion of detail and design on pretty much every other enemy despite the miniscule texture and poly count limits.

>>4710063
what am i looking at

>>4710074
I always liked this design, it reminds me of a giant evil furnace sitting in a cave, baking up monstrosities and shitting them out

All this talking about Quake monsters reminded me of Zerstorer.
That monster at the end looked kinda creepy.

>>4710089
Quake Champions' nailgun. The Super Nailgun is still blue with a big circular silly magazine underneath but at least gains the quad spinning barrels of the Q1 SNG.

>>4710102
Too bad that thing was only a cutscene.

>>4709792
Weren't you able to switch renderers on the fly in really old versions until this feature got removed for some reason? I think it was when there still were quite a few backends. I wonder, what got this feature removed?

>>4710014
I'm not a big fan of Burtul, but I want to say that the atmosphere of 64 is slightly overrated.

>>4710031
There's other eldritch figures one can use instead, Cthulu is kind of overexposed.

>>4710085
Holy shit those q1 weapon models look cool. Wish they would add an option to have it held to the side so we can see much more of it without having to use blaz.

>>4710063
I'm still not sure how you're supposed to hold this thing.

>>4710158

I finished the same shitty wad 3 times within the span of two days and didn't even realize it. There goes my extended holiday, urgh.

>>4710170
California regards thumbhole stocks as pistol grips, actually, so they won't let you have that with a detachable magazine.

>>4710273
I'm not sure where the magazine is on the railgun or if it even has one at all.

>>4709840

Heck no, make him a slug.

Is there a definitive article on how doom's sound propagation works?

Like if I wanted a monster to become activated by player sounds, but didn't want the player to hear the monster, what's the best way to do that?

>>4709987
I'm the original guy who made the post. Spawns suck, I stand by that. Cthon needs to be not limited to one place, he's too cool. He's like a second shambler. I take back the shambler taking rocket damage. The axe thing is still something I want. The axe needs to be more useful. It's a joke weapon with shotgun damage, but without shotgun range. Double that damage, and now you're rewarded for using it, because you can one shot marines, and four hit ogres. If you leave the axe damage where it's at, it's useless. I also like the idea arcane dimensions had where you could chop up zombies with it. That was fucking cool, man.

just my 2 cents.

>>4710397
the optometrist is in

>>4709076
someone change this to "thinking of qump"

>>4710390
The axe can't technically one shot marines as it is, but what the damage doesn't tell you is that Grunts trigger their pain animation from basically everything so you just stunlock them. For that matter most enemies seem to do their pain grimace after getting smacked with the axe, although obviously it's a really bad idea to get in melee range at all for most of them, especially Knights who start chopping you up as soon as their swing animation starts and while they're still five feet away.

At least you can open doors/hit buttons with it without wasting ammo, I guess, given Ranger is too angry for +use.

Quite off topic but apparently they've put another Strogg rep in the Quake Champions.

>>4710748
Visor?

>>4710752
Nah, his backstory in Q3A was never defined beyond 'first in the line of clones' and in Q:C he's worse than a Strogg, he is- may the Vadrigar forgive me for uttering this word- a Russian.

>player was perforated by a chaingunner

>>4710739
the design is cool. I just don't know what focus they're after for the characters' personality traits.

like the strogg are established characters in the quakeverse already. they're kinda engrained in the mind of the average quake fan, everyone knows for a fact they're nasty, merciless, at times creepy and REALLY tough to fight back, they're not big on humor and have no grasp on the english language, or rather their vernacular is extremely limited.

like you ARE aware what you're doing is essentially rearranging the motif and tone of your decade old lore creatures to a point of irreversibility?

I got done with it last week, my memory is incredibly fresh.

10/10, amazing. Level 30 is a complete bitch to get through, I save scummed.

Any mods for the original Serious Sam that are as good as the original Encounters? Bonus points if I can play it on the Revolution version.

>>4710785
I think there was some humor with the Strogg in Q2 but that was a secret area so it doesn't really count.
I don't really like how they're handling them, feels like Borderlands minus the memes and pop culture references.
I'm scared to see how they would handle characters like Xaero or Hunter.

Speaking of Strogg, why they couldn't put Tank Jr instead of Clutch? It would've been the same thing.

Why does everything look bad and my mods break when I switch from OpenGL to software rendering? Why is GZDoom pushing to get rid of OpenGL when this happens?

>>4710959
>Why does everything look bad and my mods break when I switch from OpenGL to software rendering?
Because OpenGL offers a lot of graphical features that mods make heavy use of, and software rendering is rarely taken into consideration these days.

>Why is GZDoom pushing to get rid of OpenGL when this happens?
It's not. Graf wants to get rid of the old versions of OpenGL, which are holding back optimizing the newer versions. Too many people still use it though so he can't do anything right now.

This also makes me wonder why did they even made Nyx, when they could have just altered Mynx
From the gameplay, to the overall mood, to even the storyline for the characters and world, QC doesn't seem to have that much of a consistent direction besides it being Quake with abilities and stats.
It's an Early Access game, so they're still trying to figure it out, i suppose.
>>4710785
>>4710813
What's weirder is that Doom and some other id games have their source code released and are the kind of games people make bunch of mods and even ports out of, while also documentation and experiences with these games.
There are people who try to know as much about Doom as they can, while someone at id still assumes the original Berserk is a timed power up.
Might be something to do with Carmack comparing games stories to porn, which made people think it's a main rule for these games and not just some comment he made or whether or not he even changed his mind about it.

>>4711007
I think they thought Mynx wasn't PC enough

>>4710959
GZDoom isn't getting rid of OpenGL support, it's probably just getting rid of support for OpenGL 2.0, it'll still have OpenGL 4.0

>>4711059
I can barely imagine how modern players would react to a character like Mynx, a character who is canonically a pornstar just begs for SFM porn.
On the other side it would cause a huge outrage from a certain group of people.

I've come across a rather crude and egotistical player in my Zandronum server as of late, and I've just been wondering lately.

Does anyone know anything of them?

Their name is SaraisVanu

They came into my server at first stating "Doomworld is full of faggots". Then proceeded to claim "I am God", and called people plebians, scrubs, faggots, etc.

Has anyone seen this player before, or know anything of them? I've already given them a permaban from the server for harassing the host and creating drama.

>>4711070

Doom Incarnate feels more like it's trying to ape Trailblazer than Wolfenstein: TNO at times.
There's also custom Doom 2 story intermission text, that seem to be based around BJ talking, but the lines don't really feel like BJ.

Personally I still think it's a great mod, it wants to bring Nu-Wolfenstein gameplay in Doom while mostly trying to be its own thing.

Assuming you're honest in your posting, just ban him next time you see him. He has some kind of brain problem that makes him just start drama and bullshit all the time.

He will never really be a nice person to you, or if he is, not for long, because the tiniest percieved slight will make him think you and people around him are out to get him.
And he'll never understand why people don't like him, in spite of constantly engaging in heinous anti-social behavior.

Hey guys, I'm trying to play Quake2xp with a 360 controller, but I'm having some trouble adjusting the sensitivity. Tried "x360_sensx" but it doesn't seem to change anything. Is there another command I need to use to enable it first or something?

Also, is there any way to adjust the rumble? I want to feel some kick when I use the SS.

I think it's compared with the original Beta map it was made from.
Tom Hall made some maps during the Alpha and Beta, though he was later let go/fired, the maps would be recycled. Many maps of E2 were old Tom Hall leftovers which Sandy Peterson would rennovate. A few E3 and even a Doom 2 level was as well.

They're honestly my favorite kind, because they have some of that quasi realism/believability that Tom Hall was originally striving for before John Romero changed the course of the game, but they're also filtered through Sandy Petersen's crazy (yet good) map making sensibilities, which makes for a very nice blend in my opinion.

I wish there was a megawad project based on that; "Doom The Way Sandy Did It, With Tom's Leftovers"

>>4711943
2 rooms down, 1 almost done and a lot of rough shapes to go.

>>4711938
Actually, looking at it again, it kinda looks like the truncated version of the level which were in some of the old console ports.
And I'll defend it on the point that the GBA would probably just fucking keel over and pass out if you tried to run those levels at their original full size, using the original renderer, rather than what they did for the Doom 2 port.

Ever seen that video of the guy who hacked the GBA rom and loaded Romero's E1M8 into it? It's neat but it runs like shit, even with an emulator, and that's after he cut it down and truncated it.

The original engine and the GBA hardware just can't cut it, and some of the other old console ports had a pretty hard time as well, for that matter.
It was the price of having handheld Doom in the early 2000's.

According to the txt file,this may be offensive because of babies and nazi symbols.
This is a joke wad sure but it's still awful.

It just needs to have a meaty sound effect.

So cute!

testing some impact types. figuring out how to make/render the water one took ages.

Kinda wish TNT:R took this opportunity
If TNT2 is still being made, i hope they take it

>>4712102
that looks cool, splashes seem a bit too big in my opinion, but still very well done

made me lol
The kick and the weapon changes are very nice tho. Really wish this would get some sort of release

>that pic
Anyone have the "you're not a medkit" screencap?

>>4712132
thanks

the splash size is more or less correct for a rifle caliber in height, but a too wide. Easy to scale in width and height depending on the bullet/weapon

Is that LegenDoom? I don't recognize the HUD.

It's just that map that has bad lighting, I've been trying to figure out how to do "high-fi" retro FPS stuff for a while now

>>4712059
It's procedural and custom made, but heavily inspired by some of this stuff: http://custommapmakers.org/skyboxes.php
I'll probably post up some of the code in a bit

that's fucking gorgeous. but shouldn't the sky reflect more on the white parts of the caustics rather than the dark?

>(yet good)
Doom 2 says otherwise.

Why is the Doom 64 weapon from Metadoom so weak?

plainest of em all

It's not the beta map. I thought that too and went to check, but the beta doesn't have this room, which can be seen clearly in both layouts in the .gif.

The news entry is a bit misleading, the software renderer isn't going anywhere. It's just the really old 2D backends that are being removed because nobody was using them. That was the entire point of the hardware survey everyone got all autistic about, to find out what legacy shit could be cleaned out without fucking over any significant userbase.

>>4712275
oh ok good, because software renderer with true color in gzdoom is my favorite way to play

It tries to replicate the original, which required the three demon keys to get stronger.
The difference is that in Doom 64, they're hidden in secret levels while MetaDoom has them spawning them on the same spots where you'd find a 7th slot weapon.
It could be better if the keys showed up more often (because i'm pretty sure you could get those items before even getting the Unmaker) and if it didn't show up before the BFG in the weapon slot.

BFG Idea: magnetic mass accelerator (railgun), with a solid projectile travelling at the highest speed GZDoom allows, +RIPPING through basically any enemy (generally gibbing them violently), stopping only at solid surfaces, or Spiderminds/Cyberdemons, where the projectile, a shaped charge penetrator, explodes violently, doing extra damage to Spidy and Cybie (who are otherwise resistant to bullets and shrapnel), having a concentrated (like 64 or 128 units wide) blast area, but obliterating or seriously wounding, just about anything that isn't enormous.
It'd make less of a PEW sound, and more just a thundering bang, the moving projectile alerting monsters all throughout it's flight path.

This is for the primary fire, it will be able to fire like this in reasonably fast succession, and do so like maybe 3 or 4 times before reloading, essentially taking the place of the rocket launcher at long ranges (as a grenade launcher takes its place at intermediate/shorter ranges). Large rocket pickups gives grenades grenades already, and lone rockets will be single units for these.

The alt fire will use it's own ammo type, and be much more AOE oriented, like a more typical BFG.

Y/N?

you're doing god's work in here dude
i really want a level to try all costumes

Sandy was spread thin on Doom 2, if he had a few more months to work on the maps, and maybe if there were a few more viable Hall leftovers to recycle, it'd have looked better.

I'll concede freely that there's some stinkers in the Doom 2 map roster, a fair few which are Sandy's, but I'll assert that he also made some quite decent and even strong maps.
It's a mixed bag.

With non-standard projectile physics you can make them trave at infinite velocity as long as they're infinitely small.

Instead of exploding at the end though, i've made my railgun do spalling damage on the exit side of any actor it hits, doing more damage the higher the armor value of that actor. so piercing a boss monster causes a shower of molten metal and gasified tissue to kill any mooks behind it.
