It's a start at least. I'll need to do more to this thing if I want to sell it as a gothic-styled weapon. Should slap some rivets and shit on the barrel. I had a friend suggest putting a moving chain on it, that's a really good idea, I'll just need to find a good place to put it. I'm also wondering if the hand and handle should be lower.

While it's tempting to give it an element of some kind, the plan was all weapons powered by the silver mana (Pistol, Shotgun, Chaingun) to just fire various flavors of metal. Though the Dreadbolt's projectiles explode on impact, I don't quite count that.

The gold mana (SSG, RL, and Plasma gun) is where the elements come in. Though thinking about it, I don't think angry ghosts count as an element from the Wrathcaster. Damn.

Ultimately I'd prefer to just keep the Chaingun as a metal spewing bullethose.

>>10495036
>>10495041

That's exactly what I was thinking of. If I can pull it off right I want to have it arc out, as well as slowly build up pressure as you fire it til it hits max range, and then taper off when you let go of the trigger. I'll need to get clever with making it look like a proper stream of lava.

I'm also considering giving it afterburn damage too.

Here's a few more name suggestions, let's see if anything sticks:

>Goldenhail
Obvious alternative, which seems more pertinent now that the main metal in this thing is gold

>Brazen Bull
Was trying to thing of a name with "brass" on it, ended up recalling the eponymous Ancient Greek torture device. Might be more fitting for the lava gun though, given the fiery nature of said device (maybe a bronze bull's head instead of a dragon's skull?)

>Tempesta Regia
"Quidquid Latine dictum sit, altum videtur". Not sure if it's correct Latin though, but it should mean "royal storm"

>Magnabolt
Meant to evoke a sense of magnificence, maybe a little on the techy side. Clearly means "BIG DAKKA"

>Kingslayer/Kingslaughter
To drive home the point that this gun is a royal pain in the ass to anyone on the wrong end

Any good Doom wads that encourage slow play? I really like E1M2 and those sections in the dark where you can creep around and one tap dudes just as you go around a corner. Sure you can go fast through any Doom level if you want, but sometimes it's fun to just go slow and pretend you're playing a stealther. Something that keeps the weapons and monster types on the low end. The first map of NERVE.wad is kinda good for that too, you can poke around and explore and admire the architecture between each fight.

For some reason it makes my potato chug at times, which is just weird but maybe that's DSDA. Nugget doesn't have that issue but I can't currently get that to work with Eviternity 2. Also the maps aren't as good. They're kind of confusing and promote aimless wandering until you encounter something you haven't done yet. The very first map is the worst offender so far, being a huge and empty level with a single monster in the middle for shits and giggles I guess? Then again its just released, and patches will obviously be on the way.

It was almost 3AM when I wrote the other one and maybe I didn't explain it properly. What I meant by "fire themed" is have it's animations show how fast and hot the weapon gets when firing by have it get visibly hot as it spins up, with the barrel tips glowing red and then orange and maybe have some of the shots with a tracer effect of the same colour.
Also now that I'm not sleepy as fuck, it seems a bit too high tech to be gothic-styled, maybe removing some of the lights and making the yellow a bit orangeish to more resemble brass instead of whatever alloy that tries to replicate.

Yeah, the handle is super chunky with that bar on the front to protect the hand it seems. It doesn't look tike there's space for fingers in there.
But the main thing is the thumb here, the way it is above that piece where the handlebar attaches to the barrel, if you could have just that one piece go over the thumb you'd sell the idea that the hand is wrapped around the grip perfectly.

That's because those .wads you're playing are not supposed to be pistol starting. Try to pistol start some good wads that have been designed with that in mind, and you'll see the difference. It's simply more fun.
In fact, I was wondering: what could be a good way to play non-pistol starting wads? Just use a gameplay tweak to give yourself some more ammo? Make enemies drop ammo? Punches do more damage?

Indeed, the propensity towards totalitarianism that lead to the greatest horrors of the 20th century exists everywhere, even online communities and game chat channels. Most would rather laugh the connections off as absurd, but it's the same basic behavior patterns that simply layer over themselves over and over until the abuse of (and, more tellingly, the appeal to) authority bleeds over into expression in "real life" and greater society. The corruption of the great hellish States of our era existed at every level in the hierarchy and wasn't just forced on them arbitrary dictators at the top.

Scuba Steve personally dragged Auger;Zenith into the 2021 Cacowards. This is just my guess, but this is about Doomer Boards rejecting the fun police discord moderation guidelines.

>GZDoom is not and never will support original conveyors behavior thus braking all the old wads relying on conveyor-scripting.
Having played countless Boom levels in GzDoom which use said VooDoo Scripting, and having also made some Boom and MBF21 levels myself, which I made sure to test in both GzDoom and PrBoom+ (then Woof and DSDA), just to be sure, I will argue that this is not true at all.

What IS true is that GzDoom handles conveyors a little bit differently, and that this CAN introduce problems, but it's not guaranteed to do so, nor is it guaranteed to be a severe problem either. In one of my levels, I made a mildly complex VooDoo script, and I did actually notice that it behaved slightly differently in GzDoom, but it did not break my map, the "script" just executed a bit slower.
If you are playing with some sort of gameplay mod for GzDoom which alters the physical properties of the player though, then that can outright break some VooDoo setups, but that's very much a given, which is also very preventable.

It doesn't matter which one you choose, outside of occasional edge cases. If someone wants to use FDWL or Nougat, it doesn't change anything, outside of maybe compatibility (using Eternity for Heartlands being pretty much the definitive example.)

Tasteful is always subjective, someone will get really offended that some of the waifus are lolis, or that one of them is a horse, but basically it's just stock Doom gameplay except each level features sector art of the waifu in question.

Pic related is one example (and a work in progress). Anon's waifu is Maka Albarn from Soul Eater, and if you look at the level from above, or in the automap, or in an editor, it's got art which depicts the waifu.

No, it's not. In fact I knew some predictable midwit would try and make that claim.

It matters not if no DOLLARS are changing hands. You're still trying to sell something. TIME and ATTENTION are valuable resources- the latter even more than the former, perhaps. It doesn't matter if we're talking about gaming or political debates or economic strategies or philosophical conversations or what. Taking someone's attention is an attempt to modify their behavior patterns to align with your wishes. So they better either have solicited it in the first place, or else you better have something really, really good to sell them. If you can't do that, keep it in your pocket.

Yeah, still a retarded analogy. Literally everything we do during our limited time on this Earth takes time and attention. It's not as valuable as you seem to assert. And the fact that you're engaging in this dumbass dialogue shows that your actions betray your assertions.
Use whatever source port you want, and ignore other people gushing about their ports of choice. If somebody tries to "sell" you a particular source port, it's trivial to give it a cursory amount of research and decide for yourself if you care or not. And one equally trivial way to perform that research is to straight-up try the source port with a classic WAD you enjoy and see if anything changes. Worst case scenario, you now have an informed reason for avoiding the port in the future, but you still played a WAD you enjoy for some time.
It's not like somebody trying to convince you to learn a new programming language, or anything that takes a non-arbitrary length of time investment to see some return. It's downloading and launching a program, maybe with some configuration for your WAD of choice. Probably 15 minutes tops. You could test drive a dozen ports in an afternoon at that rate, and maybe find something unique about each of them in doing so. Even sampling a dozen flavors of ice cream carries a heavier burden than that, since you can't delete calories from your body as easily as a folder from your PC.

It is the one modicum of control your perceptions of reality and when you give your attention to undeserving things you become less than what you could be otherwise. You always, always move in the direction of your attention.

Probably worth learning, I mean there's few things easier to pick up than a game scripting language. I was tinkering with Hexen ACS scripts in DOS mode back in like '96. Was fun making little rooms with water textures on the walls and dynamically spawning water drops to simulate rain. Can take a look at MAP01 and figure out how it spawns stuff. Course I'm still talking old vanilla versions here, I'm sure modern ports and editors are more advanced.

Going to repost it for Doom's 30th anniversary sake:
I'll release what I ended up with from my MetaDoom map.
Basically, just some resources (Except the mod itself), if one were to open the map and configure UDB with the right resources.
https://gofile.io/d/JpwWDd
Because I didn't make it an actual PK3, I made what is technically a 7z with files in it but has PK3 in the name's end.
>The map
>Version of Otex used
>Prjdoom wad
>Traps from Realm667
And besides that, the other resources used in the version of UDB mentioned in "readme" is of course, the specific GZDoom version mentioned (4.10.0), MetaDoom 7.1 and Doom 2.
This is in case anyone is not only curious, but can also get all the right pieces to even try it out.
Here's videos of the map too:

in most cases you do need the .deh. there are some wads that come with the .deh integrated into the main file but it's not standard for compatibility reasons

[Anonymous No.10497443]

>>10497375
>>10497412
.deh files are specifically for Vanilla Doom which needs an external tool to actually patch the EXE with the dehacked changes.
Chocolate Doom also needs them via a command line option.
Every other more advanced port loads a DEHACKED lump from inside the wad itself. (even Crispy Doom)
Often the .deh version is more limited than the version inside the WAD (such as abbreviated map titles).
So in short, for gzdoom, you don't need the .deh files, unless the WAD has no DEHACKED lump inside. 99% of wads do though.

for anything after, say, 2005, you can usually safely delete the deh. for earlier stuff I'd be careful.

It's built of an old abandoned DOOM port, Doom Legacy that had true 3D moving platforms (something no one has implemented again) however it also has been retouched so much I'm no sure if you can load up the original port's gameplay anymore, much less run a wad.

I like the glowy bits though, the pistol has that too. I'm also not too keen on adding fading glowing effects on the barrel as that'd be a fair amount of extra work. I was actually trying to make it brass colored but I wound up making it a shiny gold and just ran with the regal theming.
Though you're absolutely right on the handle there, I'll see about having them get hidden under that bit on the right.

Doing the same, and agreed. E4 was the best one since E1 E2 wasn't too bad, and E3 was just a slog. I'm hoping the next two episodes aren't a slog. Anyhow, I really appreciate how few of the blood maps are a convoluted maze like so many Shadow Warrior or Duke 3D maps.
