I realized later that with piss being harmless I could have just jumped down in the final encounter, avoiding most of the enemy fire. and I underestimated the amount of rockets after the archviles.

>>7730416
I agree. It takes too long between shots for the double barrel. Doom64 does the fire rate right

Quake's double barrel feels better than Doom's

Aside for some out of place puzzles,I really liked the urban enviroment and yes even the space levels had their charm.

How the Call of Doom modder is so defensive over the anime waifus in his mod or those who get angry over the fact they're in it.

Have any spicy comments from him about it? The fact that he calls them 'girlfriends' is pretty hilarious.

>Playing Opposing Force
>Turns out that those assassins are not part of the HECU

>>7730695
>>How is the wad itself?
It's certainly technically impressive but it maxes out my i56600k on the outdoor levels without turning down the rendering. Like I said, the levels are cool but they're so fucking big that if you're someone who compulsively explores every nook and cranny like me it's exhausting. The weapon variety isn't too impressive for a ww2 game, there seem to be a lot of omissions of classics you'd expect. the enemies aren't super varied either and there's a lot of "hitscan" (they seem to shoot projectiles, just really fast ones) but that kinda comes with the territory. There is some retarded bullshit occasionally, like a lot of times they're stick a guy with a sniper rifle at the end of a long hallway just to get a cheap shot at you when in "real life" you would never have a sniper guard a fucking hallway and they snipers are probably one of the more dangerous regular enemies like they are in RTCW. In fact, RTCW is what it feels a lot like in general.

>>7730379
Episode 1 is mostly excellent, episode 2 is alright, and episode 3 and 4 have a bunch of clunkers. Its a mixed bag.

If we're talking consistency, Powerslave (DOS) has BY FAR the best level design of any retro FPS. Every level except the very last one feels great to explore.

>>7730716
I remember there's a video where he's displeased about his girls called "weeb shit".
Scroll all the way down in this to see the discussion:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kSE89-tGHA&t=242s

There was also a video where's responding to the critcism in general regarding the mod,including the anime girls,where he "kills" the haters.
The video was taken down,maybe because it was really childish from his part.

>>7730720
Thanks,I knew this mod felt like a sequel to RTCW but the way it's executed wasn't really the best.
I remember years ago people complained about Episode 2.

of course its a fucking problem

>>7730808
Texture packs included?

>>7730707
honsetly I love anime waifus as much as the next but having waifus clash along side with price and mason just doesn't fit well like putting an anime Kandagawa Jet Girls in spec ops the line kind of clashing

>>7730416
the shotgun is practically obsolete if you have an SSG, chaingun and bullets

>>7730821
Not really. The SSG is very wasteful on ammo if youre fighting primarily imps & zombies.

>>7730820
That's fair. The whole part feels like more of an addon that something from the mod itself.

Thankfully it doesn't force you to summon them.

The mod biggest issue is actually the sound design.

>>7730818
sure. I just wanna spice it up without changing gameplay

>>7730835
hence chaingun and bullets

If the HECU are there to clean up the place,then the Black Ops are sent there to remove any evidence of the Resonance Cascade:

I love it when shows (or game promos I guess) have really useless mall ninja weapons. Reminds me of how on Arrow Deathstroke had a pair of chinesium swords for the first season. And that was when the show was good.

my personal gripe when it comes to the mod are the guns being too over powered when it comes to vanilla enemies

also for the number of weapons being so many it would be nice for the mod to be class based have certain types of weapons be exclusive to that class ala final doomer

>>7730961
I actually really life how each slot has its set of weapons and with more backpack you can increase the amount of weapons you can carry.
But it removed the fact each weapon didn't share ammo with the others.
For example each shotgun for slot 3 have their own amount of ammo.

>guns being too over powered when it comes to vanilla enemies
Thankfully it can be fixed with other monster packs,Hard Doom makes it better.

>>7730821
that is why in all my wads it is harder to aquire the super shotgun, because it ruins the difficulty and forces me, as a mapfag, to actually double the amount of enemies i'm throwing at the player so that there's still a challenge, which i find gay as fuck.

>>7730931
So your claim is only relevant in maps with a massive overabundance of bullets. Which isnt common at all, especially on pistol-start. In normal gameplay, the shotgun is still a useful tool for ammo management.

>>7730881
This is fucking dumb, if they allowed HECU to clean the evidence, and then sent blackops to nuke it, why couldnt ops and HECU just cooperate? I really like Opfor but this is just shitty story writing and trying to one-up hl1 at any cost(just like with dimension X or whatever those other aliens are called)

>>7731132
Thx, but what about that "your leg is broken" and weapon throwing?

>>7731149
idk

>>7731140
The premise was flawed because you were basically playing as bad guy with no sufficient human opposition. I guess they could have make you just fight monsters, but I think they were very proud of their human AI. So they added another bad guy faction and basically make you work together with good guys.

>>7731140
Because those HECU soldiers might learn stuff the government doesn't want them to learn? There is a reason they straight up want to nuke the place

>7729805
>7730035

>Don’t worry about it fellas. I described this technique publicly a few months before they filed the patent – hence Prior Art. Ironically, it was at a Creative Labs developer’s forum. During my stencil buffer talk, I described doing shadow volumes the ‘reverse’ way. At the time, I didn’t realize the major reason why the z fail method is better than the z pass method, although I did realize they were logically equivalent, which is why it’s now known as ‘Carmack’s Reverse’ and not ‘Dietrich’s Reverse’!

>>7731157
And it was kino.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WB8Tqol5N44&t=141s

>>7731170
They knew all that well before the cascade happened - thats why HECU has all the cool HEV-like armor, the gubbermint knows about aliens in black mesa and thats why they had HECU ready to clean shit up in the event of any catastrophes - they already knew HECU could learn stuff but sent them in anyways
Besides - Black ops kill only those HECU who didnt escape - like shepard - all the other grunts that evacuated after "Forget about Freeman" got away scot free with all those secrets
>>7731157

probably this, when it comes to gameplay OpFor is amazing

>>7731157
I understand why they did it but I kinda feel it would've been kino if you were gunning down security guards etc that you had to keep alive in the main game though the black ops dudes were fun to fight as well not not complaining.

>>7731060
The most common sniping use of the shotgun is getting rid of those stupid imps in cages or higher elevations.

>>7731157
>>7731202
In summary,the HECU were sent there to Black Mesa but weren't prepared for aliens,so just in case the government sent the Black Ops come in making sure any soldier who didn't get away got killed.

Gearbox realized "yeah it's cool but what about the human enemies?" hence why those male Black Ops were made.

>>7731180
>>7731230
Also Opposing Force gave us Otis. His lines are the best.

>>7731202
Yeah, you only encounter the Black-Ops dudes well after the majority of HECU has already evacuated the site, you and the guys after that are the dudes who were left behind, who didn't leave in time, you're at best a casualty to the gov't, at worst a possible witness. As the leftovers of Plan A, you're a potential risk to Plan B's mission.

It's even spoken of; "Forget about Freeman, we gotta save our own asses!" the HECU mission doesn't really matter to Shepard or any of the other guys, your goal is to escape alive.

>>7731157
>>7731140
Shepard wasn't conscious to co-operate with Black-Ops, and the grunts who fight them with you later either never got the chance to do so themselves, or they just like you were double crossed.

Are secrets necessary? Do you feel disappointed if theres zero secrets in a level?

I tend to create simple secrets out of obligation to avoid having none.

>>7731256
IIRC you also meet Freeman for a brief moment in OF,so the entire expansion happens in the late part of the original campaign.

Also Shocktroopers are the best aliens in all the franchise

>>7731275

>>7731264
Zero triggers my autism, I like one, even if its simple.

Cmon fanbase fix the Saturn port now.

>>7731264
I don't really like making secrets, because they mess up the difficulty I had in mind and I'm not very creative and I don't like looking for secret because there's nothing that definitively can't be a secret. Any wall can be fake, or openable, or destructible and there's no way to eliminate the possibility that you just need to molest every wall.
I usually add one secret for stats and sometimes I add secret invulnerability before a fight that I feel would be controversial thinking "You know what, if you don't like this fight as I made it, just skip it with this secret invulnerability". Sometimes I do get inspired and make something nice and secret. Sometimes I just realize I arrange decorations in such way that there's a non-obvious dead end someone would try to go to, or there's a platform that is just an obstacle but you can actually jump on it and I know someone would do it and I want to reward them.

What's the formula of respawning enemies in Nightmare?

>>7731275

>>7730178
My HD setup is closer to stock than most so I often forget how much the addons run the range. I still think having a new players section using vanilla HD as a baseline would be a good idea, since any fresh meat is unlikely to jump right into a highly modified HD with stuff like UaS and Peppergrinder, but they might still be looking for map recommendations to help the base mod click with them.

>>7731218
Blade of Agony has that issue,there are so many particles and details but unless your PC is powerful you won't go anywhere.

>>7731227
A great TC,wish there were more like this in a "traditional style".
Laz Rojas Wolfendoom had some of them.

>>7731264
>>7731303
Ultimately, there are very few rules for map design, so if secrets are against your taste, you should be free to do so. There's always a trade-off with player expectations though.
What I like to do is take note of "false positive" secrets in other maps, and use the ideas from that to make secrets. For instance, if there's a patch of wall lit by a lamp, maybe it's just a wall in the original, but what I learn from trying to open that wall is that it's a good way to indicate a secret.

>>7731307
IIRC every 30 tics every dead monster will have a chance to raise, probably going by the pRNG table.

Likely, I'm entirely wrong about this, but that's what my memory says.

>>7731319
>Laz Rojas
I looked up that old website featuring those mods and wondered what happened to him,considering he didn't do anything modding related since 2003.

Turns out he's an actor,producer and cartoonist.
>He makes movies literally all by himself(script,camera etc.)
>He plays every single character in them
>women included

Is there any reason in pulling back hammer of revolver in hideous destructor?

>>7731332
Wanna know something fucked? Laz was in a group of Wolf modders, and one of them plain took a bunch of shit, including their own hard work, and sold it as a commercial product so he could pocket all the money, which caused a huge rift in the group, mostly between the dude and everyone else.
Eventually, Laz would also discover that this dude was touching kids, and wasted no time calling 5-0 on him.

>>7731348
The lesson here is that you can steal people's mods or you can touch kids, but never both.

>>7731339
There's a noticeable trigger pull delay on the revolver, pulling back the hammer just does part of it preemptively so you can fire off a round as soon as you click. Be advised that sprinting undoes the hammer pull, but not the resulting cylinder rotation, so I usually only bother with it for the first shot.

Give me Saturn Doom hacks please.

>Blade of Agony has that issue
Not just it. Every standalone mod on GZDoom engine (and most other projects which derive from old engines) have this problem, and it makes me so fucking angry I want to break something.
It feels like it suddenly became newest "easy game-pumping engine", so people just slap shit together and pretend everyone are rolling on newest ryzen setups.
If it looks like Doom 2, plays like Doom 2, and feels like Doom 2, it sure as hell should be able to run on hardware contemporary to Doom 2. Maybe I'm bit radical with this here, but here's absolute bottom line - hardware from 10 years ago absolutely shouldn't choke on anything made on GZDoom engine, otherwise it's creator's fault for having his hands grow out of unintended places.

>>7731385
>that one Danny Devito tweet but it says "john, bitch"

>>7731358
Got it

>>7731429

>>7731418
IMO there's nothing wrong with current-gen features in a Doom port, the problem is when it runs like it has them even if it doesn't. If I want to max out shaders and filters and particles and all that, I don't begrudge it if it runs slower.
The problem is that it doesn't give 90s performance even when you set it to give 90s visuals.

>>7731418
But there are still cases where it's not necessary but manage to run properly anyway(If your PC can't run Adventures of Square,what the hell).
The issue with mods like BoA is that even with the options for your PC performance it's still lags like hell,it feels bloated.

Then you have Grezzo 2 running on Skulltag giving you the same option and doesn't have this problem. And that game is an absolute mess.

Precisely. And that is entirely because modmakers can't contain themselves. Cool modern features are cool, but sometimes you gotta stop and think if you are trying to mod your bicycle, or trying to build a motorcycle using flimsy frame.
It's just so fucking aggravating when I can play Serious Sam HD, on at least medium settings, and it looks gorgeous and doesn't stutter even during fights, but they I launch this BoA, or that horror mod, and they are just unplayable. I don't know why - is it fault of those who created those mods, or of GZDoom in general? On one hand, it ought to be problem or specific modmakers, but then again, they are not dumb, they can whip out something on their own, right? Not to mention that if they choose this engine, then, probably, they are not alien to gaming on non-state-of-art PCs? Am I wrong about that?
And it's not limited just to mods! There are tons of games that really don't look all too great, but they demand atrociously strong PCs. And there's never any place for discussion, because when you say that this or that is lagging, it's always yours problem, "buy new PC lmao". No one stops to think even for a minute, and for them, it's perfectly plausible that games that look worse (at least technologically) than those from 2008 demand Ryzens and those new R cards, or RTXs, or whatever else.

>hardware from 10 years ago absolutely shouldn't choke on anything made on GZDoom engine
Though I understand and share your frustration with GzDoom's less than great optimization and performance (which is poor), I disagree. A huge part of Doom's charm is how moddable it is, and people just doing all kinds of shit with it, that includes really advanced and demanding things.

Now, some things are demanding which in some circumstances shouldn't be, but a lot of these problems hinges on what GzDoom is, and its history. Long story short is that it's difficult to put in an all new foundation under a multi story house.

>Powerslave (DOS) has BY FAR the best level design of any retro FPS
Is it really? I've been trying this recently, completed 2 levels. So far it was incredibly boring to me: very simple weapons/enemies, linear levels more akin to Doom rather than Build.
Would be happy to know it gets much better later on. This ship on screen looks nice.

Thing is, there's not really that much room for it to even be modders' fault. That would mean that everybody who mods for other engines is good at optimization while everybody who sucks at it mods for GZD, which would be a strange coincidence.
>Not to mention that if they choose this engine,
It's the only current engine that supports Zscript, as well as only a few that support hardware rendering and freelook, so it's the "best" engine for new Doom engine games to be run on.
>>7731715
Long story short is that it's difficult to put in an all new foundation under a multi story house.
Then get out the sledgehammer, it's not like Graf cares about backwards compatibility.
Oh wait, it's spaghetti code.
One time I changed my version to GZDoom Legacy, and not only did it run a little better, but I can't tell what changed other than the UI and resolution options.

It would be THE shit if someone took the concept of Blood but put it in the wild west so we'd have a weird west shooter with wild west tropes mixed with vampires, chupacabras, escaped slaves and the like.

>>7731762
it sucks that no one ever rebuilt the Crash landing intro like the N64 port

>>7731763
>Then get out the sledgehammer, it's not like Graf cares about backwards compatibility.
Everyone else does though, to varying degrees.

why is there a thread shitting on duke right now?

My point is that not wanting to break downstream isn't an excuse to not optimize when he does it anyway.

Are you sure you aren't the op of that thread trying to bait people to respond?
Anyway if it's the thread I'm thinking of it's some zoomie asking what the appeal of duke is and not really shitting on it.

The only issue I have with the thread and the one about the nintendo port is that they made a separate thread instead of discussing it here.

Gimme a year. I'm still on vacation and I'm gonna start workin on the final GMOTA update in like 2 weeks.

In fact, while I'm here and it's fresh on my mind, if you boys have any complaints or remarks on GMOTA, now's a good fuckin time to give me those grievances. Kustam is going to be getting some pretty significant changes in the coming update.
Right now I've been trying to figure out what I should replace the chaingun-tier upgrade for Kustam with, and if I should change out what a partial charge shot for the pistol does, the spread gun is kinda fun but I'm not sure if anyone uses it.

>>7731997

Alright anons, I've got bad news. Last thread I mentioned that I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing but I was going to autism my way through shit... Well, I'm about at my wit's end with the Quoth/Drake stuff. There is so much that is re-defined or reorganized from vanilla that I just can't make heads or tails of it. I don't want to just copy/paste over half of their QC, but I also don't understand the code well enough to translate it to a more vanilla-like format.

If someone else wants to take a shot at it, you're more than welcome. In the meantime I'm going to clean up the code and get a release packed up. After that I'm just going to focus on fixing the status bar and any other bugs you guys come across. Sorry for the inconvenience.

>first ever playable kobold in a fps soon

>>7732038
Well the only things I can really do to actively remind people of that in game is have his snout poke out slightly from the bottom of the screen with the fullscreen HUD, his hands, and he'll be slightly shorter than Blaz.
I might have to actually increase Blaz's height so Samson can be shorter but still playable in maps. Poor Blaz at one point was too short and some maps were left unbeatable for it.

>>7730754
wow fucking RUDE

>>7731826
>>7731920

The point in the thread that it was ''Bart Simpson''-tier was spot on but not in a bad way. Basically Duke is corny as fuck but played mostly straight and that's where a lot of his charm comes from.

However I feel like Duke Nukem as a game suffers from the freshness of the whole thing wearing off after the first few or so levels because the game doesn't really do pacing well and fps games of that time hadn't really worked out storytelling so while kicking aliens in the nards works from a gameplay perspective, as an experience Duke becomes kinda bland when the initial novelty wears off and there isn't a steady rollout of new enemy types etc.

If there ever was a Duke revival a lot could be done with doing smaller episodes with plot advancing cutscenes / comics with over the top cornyness / violence and maybe even other human characters interacting with Duke or a ''nemesis'' for him.

More enemy types, more gags, gorey / visceral special moves to execute enemies with.

Kind of how DOOM is characterized by the now-infamous DOOM comic that the original game didn't properly live up to but now does thanks to Brutal Doom and the nu-DOOMs.

>>7732059

Hell I'd love to see 3d realms doing new Duke game on upgraded build engine that Ion Fury uses. Given as their whole business goes around boomershooters with 90s engines, I don't think that it would be impossible.

>I'd love to see 3d realms doing new Duke game on upgraded build engine that Ion Fury uses

As long Randy owns the IP,it won't happen.

Here's an idea:take the guy from Bio Menace,which is owned by 3D Realms and give him the Duke treatment.
Going from 2D to an FPS.

>>7732063
The later episodes do gradually introduce new enemies & weapons though. The actual problem is that they just have worse level design. There are some great levels in episode 3 of Duke, but the other half are rushed repurposed deathmatch maps.

>>7732154
It ran like shit and lacked features compared to the PSX port? It had a shit development, so it never had the chance to be good, same for the 3DO, except the 3DO port had a really sick original recorded soundtrack.

Is there any screens, videos or info on Tarnsman's Projectile Hell? People seem to be waiting for it, but why?

>>7732084

>>7732154
There's not really anything worth doing to Saturn Doom except write a brand new 3D renderer for it, which requires the right lunatic to even begin to do.

Legit great idea, so long as you don't ape the duke formula. Make it difficult, gorey as hell, and campy. Like an 80/90s horror movie action type thing. Not quite as stupid as a troma film.

>>7732127
Alright, sure. I was trying to get Quoth monsters and Drake's Mjolnir throw to work. I outright deleted Thor.qc and tried to remake the hammer throw myself, so you'll need to grab that from Drake. The Quoth stuff is from AD but commented out in the src. Good luck.

>>7732098
I'd love if the Ion Fury devs were the ones to re-imagine Duke.
Fuck I just hope they'll do more nu-boomershooters in general.

>>7732119
I mean kinda could always create a new i.p but there's something about Duke Nukem's image that makes him special.
Then again I'd love if they had a not-Duke that was him but was tangled in different settings like one episode you could be shooting at gangbangers from detroit and in another fighting off a mutant zombie invasion in 1991 Iraq and in the next ayylmaos in california.

All with crazy gore, special execution moves, secrets and maybe special hidden objectives / level specific challenges ? And powerful feeling weapons.

>>7732171
The claim made by the devs for the Saturn port is that they had this amazing engine which had a consistent 60fps at all times, and that then Carmack nixed this approach because it had too much texture warping.
Carmack admitted a few years back "I should probably have allowed for some more experimentation."

Given the Saturn's less than perfect abilities in rendering 3D, I'm not buying that these guys had some magical super engine which gave Doom that claimed performance, not when you actually take this port apart and look at how fucking sloppy it is, and not when you compare it to the results Lobotomy Software got with first person shooters on the Saturn.

Lobotomy Software were a bunch of warlocks who ported Duke Nukem 3D to the PSX and Saturn, Quake to the Saturn, and made Powerslave/Exhumed for PC, PSX, and Saturn, and they generally got quite decent performance out of these games most of the time with their own Slavedriver engine, but they certainly never were anywhere close to 60fps. The under-achievers who put together Saturn Doom certainly weren't outpacing THESE dudes, I'm convinced of that.

>>7732119
>>7732196
I am in full support of a tough-as-nails Build Engine FPS starring Snake Logan.

>>7732204
Jim Bagley is a hack?

>>7732204
Duke 3D is one of the few games I can recall off the top of my head that managed to be ported to the 64, Saturn and PS1 together
most games just went for two out of the three

>>7732215
Maybe he has talent, but I'm not convinced he was trying with this one.

>>7732219
Lobotomy Software did make a port of Quake for the Playstation, running on their Slavedriver engine. For completely inexplicable reasons though, nobody they pitched it to wanted to publish it, so it just stayed on the shelf, and people with Playstations missed out on a fun game.
I'm positive it would have sold well.

Something close to "Big Trouble in Little China" or "Robocop"? They take themselves seriously but are really campy as well.

Even if the game felt closer in atmosphere to a Flash Gordon.

>>7732203
>I mean kinda could always create a new i.p but there's something about Duke Nukem's image that makes him special.
It's still fun to see an old IP or character getting a revival like Shelley/Bombshell did it.
The more silly atmosphere from Bio Menace would feel less restrictive too.

>>7732210
Bio Menace was so much tougher than Duke 1 and 2,so following the same vain would be cool.

I wonder how Snake Logan voice would be,keep the moustache of course.

I looked it up and Hexen was another one of the lucky few games to be available on all three major consoles at the time
Rather strange considering Heretic had no console ports at all

Speaking of Bio Menace,is that game any good?

I did Freddie and was able to stop all compiler warnings and add some progs_dump stuff. He probably doesnt work completely properly in-game (dont have time to test), but its a start.

I moved new definitions to defs_ad.qc from subs.qc because thats a very unintuitive place to put them. Its supposed to be for subroutines (generic functions called by other functions).

Btw, you should investigate any yellow warnings about too many or too few parameters on function calls. Because the former means the function caller is expecting more information to be processed, and the latter means the function doesn't have data it needs and will use random garbage data instead.

>>7732219
Looking at some Duke 3D footage for the Saturn (I never owned one) it's kinda neat. since everything is rendered with polygonal tiles they through in some vertex baked sorta AO looking effect. They lost some things like swinging doors it looks like. It seems to run at around 25 fps at worst so far? Estimating. Doesn't look bad. I would bet a Doom port with similar care could get to 45 fps, or so. Considering it's a simpler game overall.
You'd still get the texture warping, and I can see how that would bother someone like Carmack.

>>7732257

How do we feel about TFC?

>>7732827
A neat step in the evolution of Team Fortress, but I can't help but feel it's just a tad too clunky. QWTF seems barren and ancient in comparison but plays fast as heck (or it has since people started bunny hopping, given the mod predates that becoming common); TFC tries to be QWTF with new paint and is fun on its own, but still has way too much menu-driven intricacies and kludges like using aliases in a config file for default keybinds instead of just making the bind a command in itself (e.g. scout scanning) and doesn't really fix any of the balance issues (Medic is still a better flagrunner and combatant than Scout, Pyro is crap, etc). Plus, GoldSrc lacks buffered jump inputs and that'll always feel a little bit wack.

What's the best way for me to play Quake 3 Arena these days? Is it Quake Live or is it one of the source ports in the pastebin?

>>7732827

Plus 3D Realms themselves aren't interested in Duke nowadays. Screenshots were taken from their Discord server when I searched for some examples. TL;DR:
>3D Realms is constantly getting asked about Duke Nukem. Its basically a meme at this point, but they're also clearly annoyed by it and that's probably one of the reasons for their current perspective on Duke.
>They're moving forward and focused more on new releases.
>My guess is that one of the new games they're working on could be a spiritual successor or revamp of Duke Nukem Forever's 2001 Build. If so, that's probably the closest you can get to "3D Realms releasing a new Duke game".

It's just a Tribolt skin, unfortunately. And the worldmodel gun is for the Railgun.

Just because 3D Realms are done with Duke doesn't mean Duke is dead, miracles can still happen, Randy could get T-boned in an intersection.

>>7733336
why would you even want a duke game in current year

>>7733343
Because it would be a Duke game in current year, if it actually had the proper spirit of Duke Nukem it would be a breath of fresh air.

>>7732956
Hm, i actually cant test it because its giving errors about needing hammer models.

>turn the player model weapon into railgun
That's actually clever. Railgun mod for Q1 when?

>>7733336
Didn't Gearbox just get bought? So some other hyper conglomerate corp owns Duke now.

>>7733260
>nondescript weapon the player's world model is carrying
>REAPER Railgun
>Classic Quake "Legacy" Railgun (of Ranger's Q1 World View Weapon Model)
Huh... Has anyone tried to make a Railgun in original Quake? Also that's more Q1/Ranger stuff getting added in, which makes sense for Quake's 25th Annivesary: its near and maybe only just the beginning.

Anything is possible, but I don't think that's the case where you can count on miracles. Not right now, at least.

Duke would unironically say "trans rights" in a new game. JSJ is a fucking soi cunt.

>>7733418
Could be used in Violent Rumble. Standard version could just be a laser rifle like what the enforcers use, while switching to DOE's plasma ammo turns it into a railgun.

>>7733428
Yeah, this shit made me realise that some old series like Blood not getting a sequel is actually a good thing.

>>7733447
SW 2013 was fine, way better than Blood 2

>>7733436
All that's left is making a viewmodel that looks good. Cause I actually remember seeing player's gun used as a pickup model for blaster weapon in some mod, but viewmodel was just a boring yellow-ish cylinder. It was Drake, I think.

>>7732992
If its such a burden just sell the ip. Unless they're really making so much money on World Tour. Then again it might get monkey pawed and completely ruined so maybe its better for Duke to hibernate
>>7733260
Never played QC but its fun to see stuff like this

>>7733428
>JSJ is a fucking soi cunt.
Unfortunately this. He wanted based Kyle to rot in prison and be raped, probably by a bunch of feral prison niggers.

Press [S] to spit.

>>7733462
>Unless they're really making so much money on World Tour
From what I saw it didn't. The rerelease was a flop.

>Then again it might get monkey pawed
As much as I want a new game,I feel the same way. Let's not forget fans wanted a new Commander and Conquer game and it turned out to be a travesty.

>>7733447
SW reboot was good,it's just the sequel that had mixed opinions.

>JSJ is a fucking soi cunt.
Dumb insult aside,I disagree with his mentality too but overall I don't care,I'm here for his voice acting and the former didn't affect anything in Postal 4,where he's voicing the Dude.

>>7733260
>>7733306
Alright,what the hell is going on. After years where they barely did anything with it,the devs suddendly remembered about it and making new content for it?

I ain't complaining but I wish they were consistent with it.

>>7733462
qc is free I think

>>7733475
Does id hold the reigns on it now? Maybe some of the art guys have free time now that Eternal is over.

>>7733450
>>7733470
SW 2013 is fine, I agree. Worth playing through once. Gameplay is closing arenas shit with spongey enemies but passable. Lo Wang turned from funny old pervert into some annoying prick, but at least there's Hoji and he is great. SW2 though is complete shit.

>>7733482
Apparently it says Id Software is developing the game now. I guess like you said,they're trying to get on it after Eternal.

>>7733481
Maybe I'll give it a try. I don't have a great PC.

>>7733475
They've been making new stuff at a stable slow rate. Mostly skins like this now, new map once in a planet parade. Pic related (Exile) was released last December.

>>7733486
It's probably always been a small team, and will remain a small team, but they needed all hands on deck for Eternal.
It sounds like the most plausible scenario, but what do I know?

>>7733493
When you consider the lack of updates around the time when Eternal was in development,makes sense.

ok after fiddling with some monster mods posted here I decided to do a proper version of MeatGrinder Monster Only
it came out pretty good I think
and I changed it so that Chaingunners drop 'Chaingun' which if you are playing with Assault Rifle replacer on in Supercharge makes them drop an Assault Rifle accordingly
another good thing about MeatGrinder is that the corpses arent shootable so it SHOULDNT break map triggers
its also much much lighter on perfomance compared to normal BrutalDoom gore and stuff
Im pretty satisfied with the result
also another good thing MeatGrinder does is make all enemy bullet weapons non hitscan
projectiles are very fast but you can manage to dodge a few of them when moving fast

>>7733520
this is the result
very very lightweight because Meat Grinder was designed for slaughtermaps

>>7733520
>>7733535
>Still hasn't posted his Supercharge de-monstered

Just saw this on my TV screen.

>>7733568
Gunman Chronicles played with a Joystick?

>>7733579
And the frame rate is horrible. Probably running in software mode.

Okay, I'm just one guy trying to stir shit, and I haven't been in this thread for couple of months. Did post quality improved in my absence, or I'm not actually just "one" guy?

>>7732683
>four arms
I bet she's amazing at handholding
>>7732717
I have a suspicion she was a partial inspiration for the Khan Maykr's true form. Her lower body is also a bulbous gas sack.
Also 2016 had this demon fetus in a tube that people suspect might be a reference to Mommy Demon. Hugo and some of the other guys at modern id really like Doom 64.

>>7733631
I wish they did something with it rather than a small easter egg.
I would take it over the bosses in TAG 1 and 2.

>Hugo and some of the other guys at modern id really like Doom 64.
Can't blame them,the game is great.

>>7733462
>If its such a burden just sell the ip.
I don't think Randy really cares about how much profit Duke Nukem bring in. To me, it doesn't feel like that's what its about... At least when it comes down to 2001 build, then yeah. Most likely they'll just keep milking him through re-releases without much thought and resources put into it. Besides that, our boy Duke (weird thing for me to say since I actually don't care much about him) will stay in Gearbox's closet because I really doubt Randy would let anyone surpass Forever unless he can take full credit for it.
>Never played QC but its fun to see stuff like this
Indeed. As was said before, QC has the soul in it despite being overall janky in a lot of ways. If my laptop weren't just a potato toaster and could run the game better, I would probably jump into it and have a lot of fun.
>>7733475
25th Anniversary happened + Eternal is "finished", so Champions slowly gets more attention.
>>7733482
>>7733486

I assume they're. At the very least, Saber are out for some time now.
https://youtu.be/O2aVOuYEvO4?t=464

LOL

>>7733647
Quake Champions should've focused more on the niche crowd given that is now a dead genre.
Like that it could've get more popularity.

Still I love the designs and the way it looks,there's clearly tons of effort put into it.

>Saber are out for some time now
Honestly despite their work I'm glad they're gone for now. Maybe if they used an Id engine instead of whatever they're using which is not that good it could've helped the metagame.

When you think about it Postal 2 was essentially the Duke 3D of the 2000s in terms of humor. Given the jokes where mainly about events and people relevant at the time it came out (save for the Waco spoof).

>>7733734
not really

>>7733616
>And the frame rate is horrible
I'm always so shocked with the how horrible some framerates are whenever I see old archival footage of someone playing a 90s fps. I remember someone posted a video of some people playing Doom back in the day and I swear one guy was playing at like 5 fps and was so happy to shoot an exploding barrel.

Ok, im not into internet dramas or anything but what's the deal with Romero and Rekkr? redpill me on this one please

>>7733884
But that still counts as torture

>>7732941
Yeah, I had some fun because I beat the other two GoldSrc games like 5 months ago, but there was nothing new or interesting added.

>>7733907
The best one is no doubt echoes. I wish it was longer but fuck its so damn tight. Well its longer than BS.

>>7733912
I haven't played any HL mods, I guess I'll start with that one then.

>>7732442
I'm also interested in this

>>7733914
Its unbelievable it honestly makes the OGs look quaint.

It uses some unused HL stuff, has great scripted scenes, some amazing ones with the grunts and other spoilers.

I love when you pick an old engine and with modern power explode its complexity . Kinda like Ion Fury and Thief fan made missions. Keeping vanilla most of the time but no afraid of making more complex maps.

Be sure to find all the story easter eggs, they are hard to find.

>>7733924
from what I see its probably a nice mod, but why the fuck do moddb summaries never fucking summarize the mod? Neither does the recent news post or anything else on the mod db page, I have absolutely no fucking idea what the mod is about - its not the only fucking mod that does it - why the fuck do I have to dig around for a simple description of a mod on a dedicated site for mods?
Some zdoom forums topics also do this - nigga why should I download your shit?

>>7733950
Why are you relying on moddb for anything?

>>7733823
Hugo probably took the reins and told Sync to stop with the tim willits bullshit about the lore.

Even Quake 2 Mission packs are now being acknowledged.

>>7733957
maybe because its usually the only site/place where the mod is hosted? The developer chose the site, not me

>>7733963
I meant info. Its just a download site.

Anyone who likes HL knew about echoes from other places.

>>7733924
It legitmately makes Blue Shit look even worse.
There's so much love and care put into it,I might put it even higher than Opposing Force.

The way the scientist in this mod goes hardcore but doesn't feel like a killing machine like Freeman or Sheperd were.
It knows how to use the action sparingly.

Plus Black Mesa just looks beautiful,if the place looked massive in the OG and expansions,BM is gigantic in this and the horror aspect it's far more explored as well(you know...that monster).

It's too good.

>>7733950
There's not much to say about it,conceptually it's simple considering you're just a scientist going through the same nightmare as anyone else.

>>7733950
Its more than a mod its stand there with opfor and blue shift even surpasses them.

its that good.

>>7733447
SW2 was crap, but it looks like theyre going in a different (better) direction for SW3.

>>7733965
Yeah its really good.

I want to explore a full GoldSrc black mesa sand box one day. The entire facility.

Why does bethesda's doom port suck so bad?

That approach generally works against popularising your work
>>7733965

This simple string of text would do the trick, with hundreds of different HL1 mods ranging from zombie TCs like They Hunger to joke stuff like Crack Life a basic description is not an unrealistic demand

>>7733973
it sounds really good and I wanna try it myself now that I know what it is about.
