Been playing the new Demonsteele (single-player only, custom WADs) and here are my thoughts so far:

>Steel Demons/Pinkies hidden in corners and such are pretty much a guaranteed life-token loss. Their movement speed is fine, their reaction time is not, unless you know the mapset you're playing by heart and know exactly where they hide and can react
>Devil Driver. I know that its supposed to be the big ultimate baddie, but if you dont have Iron Saviour and there are several of them then you are pretty much screwed. I wish they could telegraph their attacks a bit better because now its just a spam of projectiles
>Blackened are fine, maybe tweak their reaction time a bit. Its pretty much the same story as with Steel Demons, if you dont knew where they are beforehand then kiss your token goodbye, which is critical in higher difficulties
>Im really liking firearms changes so far, Testament is pretty much my go to weapon now. Charge attack on Sabbath is kinda weak though, I assume its used when you are surrounded by lots of weak guys but even then its better to just use charge on sword
>Fun addition would be to add a combo indicator like in other action titles, like the number of hits and kills, which will reset after a few seconds. Of course this would change nothing gameplay-wise but it would be cool.

I think thats it for now, everything else is pretty much spot-on for me personally.

[Anonymous No.2336682]

>>2336668
The ORIGINAL CODE, DO NOT STEAL bit gets me in particular because (everything that brought Doom to the point that he can code in a pretend coding language rather than having to do more difficult coding aside) protections for code are generally either so permissive that they have no meaning or are restrictive to the point that nobody can do anything remotely similar because they'd be using "someone else's code", even if the code in question is just the implementation of existing formulas or mathematics, or code ported from another language, and hence not really that person's to begin with. This is doubly true in both decorate and ACS, which are restricted languages compared to actual languages, so there are less workarounds to do the same thing and so more chances for the person that simply does something first to prevent others from doing the same because it's "their" code.

Its funny because you could easily get banned on /v/ by expressing the wrong opinions about a certain gate.
But really, there is no need to drag this to the lowest common fagginator. Seems like whenever /vr/ talks about guncaster half of the posts are about the winged donut/author.

[Anonymous No.2336773]

>>2336739 (me)
To add to this, while I disagree with the sentiment of keeping people from using your graphical resources (past the release or final release date, basically if it's "do not use forever" or "contact me before using" which in most cases defaults to "do not use forever" as time passes), it's wasting opportunities but isn't outright harmful the way restrictions on code can be.

For people that don't code, imagine if Sgt. Mark IV's "Assault Rifles (c) Sgt. Mark IV" was enforced and also applied to all assault rifles--not just ones based on the NAM assault rifle. (The reverse of that, having the restrictions be so lax they don't do anything, would be as if changing a single pixel was enough to get around that.)

For code the best practice is generally to ask for credit but not require permission to use, even better if you require people using your code to do the same with theirs. Promotes learning and new works and others will usually find crazy ways to use your code you never even thought of, and others will do the same with their code, etc, etc. There's also the fact that most good programmers (in both the real world and the doom community) ascribe to this philosophy and are probably on to something, while it's usually the mid-tier coders that try to hoard code.

I don't want to get armor bonuses involved, Yholl mentioned there can be some SEVERE weirdness with getting armor on demand like that, and I fear I might be risking an issue with the new armor amulet anyway.

>>2337087

Could make the extra damage different. You mentioned red leaves flames near the player's feet, which means they could avoid it, while electric could be sticky on the player and have some alternate means of stopping it early.

Or you could have a brief series of lightning bolts chase the struck player so they gotta go fast to avoid it.

so as of now the first map is almost finished and I need some help to make it better

https://www.dropbox.com/s/wefpal77mzjlpe7/gbadmplus_Map01.wad?dl=1

ignore the filesize as I was trying to see what fits or not so it has a lot of unused textures that may come in later if I get back on it.

Sure, I'll add a few more telegraphs to the DevilDriver and slow down the Pinky's/Steele Beast's reaction time a little.

A combo counter would be fun as hell, though I have no clue how it'd count for explosives and rippers.
Still, I'll give it a shot.

So I just caught a massive exploit in GMOTA.

Due to how losing mana/damaging POW/equipment, and now getting the ice debuff works, it's all done using pain states, jumping to the specific state, and then adding/subtracting items as it goes.

The problem is if you're attacking with the Blazter, you don't go to the pain state. Meaning your shit doesn't get affected.

This only seems to happen (testing on the draining daggers) when using red pellets, I get drained during dart spam/charging shots.

Getting hit on the face while using one of Blaz's weakest attacks resulting in "only" damage taken is not exploitable at all, specially if restoring health from a safe range will stop being a thing.

Drawing a pixel in Doom involves copying a single 8-bit value from a texture onto the framebuffer.

Drawing a pixel in a modern game usually requires 3 or more trilinear filtered gamma-correct texture lookups, multiple 32-bit 3- or 4-component dot products, possibly nonlinear functions like cosines or square roots, and a 24-bit truecolor output (or more).

Not to mention, Doom runs at 320x200@35hz, while modern games are expected to run at 1920x1080@60hz minimum.

the issue is more subtle. DoomRL is pretty niche. a couple of folks having a conversation about it won't make much difference (although i for one would appreciate it if they would actually say they're talking about DoomRL, because otherwise i wonder what the heck the posts were about!)

however Doom4 is a mainstream triple A title or however these things are classified, with all the marketing that goes along with that, and talking about it here is likely to bring in hordes of modern video game players who know next to nothing of the current state of classic Doom and who will drown out the threads. this actually happened to a certain extent last summer around quakecon.

Gameplay based on movement and reaction rather than cover and aim like in most modern games, very good level design with good amount of secrets and exploration.

I personally suggest using the GZDoom engine and playing with mouselook enabled to ease into the experience. Kinda makes it play less authentic, but the core experience is identical while feeling much more comfortable to play.

That's correct. It has by far the most mods available for it.
>What's the difference between GZDoom and zdoom?
GZDoom is the exact same thing except is has an OpenGL renderer - that means it renders level architecture in true 3d, which allows you to look up and down without the odd warping that'd give you in ZDoom. Other than that it also supports a bunch of graphical effects like nice dynamic lights, fog and all sorts of weird things the modders cook up. If authenticity is the most important thing for you I suggest using Chocolate Doom instead, which plays and looks exactly like the original.

>>2340507

It can, but because the chaingunner has 70 hitpoints, and shotgun fires 7 pellets each doing around 5-15 damage, Its not uncommon for one shot to not kill them, due to pellets missing him, or damage not being on your side.

[Anonymous No.2341149]

>>2340937
It is all situational. Also a Chaingun is VERY good at mowing down a horde of Former Soldiers, Sergeants, and Chaingunners. Chainsaw can stun lock a Cacodemon and the chainsaw will mess up a Pain Elemental one on one due to it not being able to attack. Also Super Shotgun is a big gun, does a bit more than double the damage of the regular shotgun and can take down guys quickly at close range or a horde of them at medium range. And no chainsaw on the Demon/Specter? I think you can chainsaw an Arachotron one on one without it being able to fire, or at least have a high success in that since that is how I kill all of them that are guarding the area in the Factory level in Doom II.

this chart appears to be going almost entirely off monster hit points, which is a little inaccurate

i would instead order the thing by target priority; prioritizing over the likelihood the thing is going to cause serious damage. for example

- sergeants are quite dangerous and should be prioritized over demons and spectres

- similarly one should prioritize chaingunners as they can eat up your health rather quickly if left unchecked; in fact let's just say anything with a hitscan attack should be targeted first

- pain elementals are summoners, which are invariably priority targets; any summoner can quickly cause a situation to get out of hand

- barons are slow and their fire easy to dodge, so they can usually be left alone for a while

- i might even say to prioritize an archvile over a cyberdemon, as the former both can act as a summoner and has an undodgable attack that blinds you and takes ~90% health, while the latter is just like a more dangerous baron, all hitpoints and dodgable projectiles; in fact cyberdemons often act more like an ally, doing tons of damage and distracting other opponents if handled correctly

Technically speaking, anything using hitscan-based attacks should be prioritized first because you can't dodge their attacks, only take cover. True, an Archvile may not need to be dispatched with the BFG but it has a powerful and undodgeable attack only stopped by walls.
A good example of this is MAP01 of Doom 2, you may receive more damage from the former humans than you will from Imps.

Chaingunners are an special case. Their attack is hitscan, non-stop unless you break line of sight and are more resilent than the other former humans. Multiple Chaingunners can destroy any vanilla enemy with ease, as their concentrated fire triggers the "Hurt" state of their target often, rendering it constantly stunned.

The Pain Elementals are next because they produce enemies. However they can't really attack. The Lost Souls they produce can render a Rocket Launcher unusable for fear of an explosion in the face in cramped places and limits the player's damage output as well as contributing as cannon fodder.

Everything else relies on projectiles and reduces their damage potential, the most dangerous could be the Arachnotron for constant fire and powerful projectile, then the Revenant for possible homing rockets that can stack, quick movement and powerful melee.

At the bottom resides anything relying on close range attacks. At most they can overwhelm you.

>Technically speaking, anything using hitscan-based attacks should be prioritized first because you can't dodge their attacks, only take cover.
They should be prioritized second because the spidermastermind is still inferior to the cyberdemon even if it has hitscanners and also, E3M8 was too open and had places to take cover. Meanwhile on dot[Dimensions of Time] MAP10, you fight 1 Mastermind and 4 Pain Elementals in a very short room and your only cover is 4 small pillars. Hitscanners are a pain in the ass if you have little cover but they are easy to deal. Like, very easy to deal with however it depends 100% on the level's design. Also take in mind something more important, hitscanner enemies die fast.

>Multiple Chaingunners can destroy any vanilla enemy with ease
Not true, a single baron can deal with 6 chaingunners

>The Pain Elementals are next because they produce enemies.
NNNNOPE, Pain Elementals should not be high ranker, the only thing that has is making you stop using the rocket launcher for 5 seconds so you can kill it and its lost souls [Pray to the heavens that you don't get a map that is a tight space and all you got is rockets].

If anything, that list is a bit correct but i'd rank the Nazi in the same rank as the Chaingunner because both are rapid fire hitscanners.

[Anonymous No.2341410]

>>2341231
I agree. The first time I realized the true power of a chaingunner was when I started to play Plutonia on the first map. Walking up to the door and a monster closet opens behind you with two chaingunners. Without knowing that trap and you have full health chances are you will have at least 50% HP missing from that trap. They eat up HP like nothing, and when they start firing you have to hide to make them stop.

Please excuse my relentless autism guys. I'm a NEET with too much time on my hands and decided to run a few tests regarding how OP the chaingun guy is.

For this experiment:
>Use the first map of Doom 2
>"Kill monsters" on console
>Noclip and god, run into the part in pic related
>Enable NOTARGET
>Spawn 6 chaingunners close eachother
>Spawn a baron of hell REALLY close to the chaingunners
>Get in front of them
>Make a save
>Toggle NOTARGET off
>Observe infighting
>Take note of results
>Load save and repeat.

I loaded the save 5 times to make sure the initial hypothesis is correct. The baron distances himself alot from the chaingunners and killed 2 chaingunners in average, I can try even giving a prediction model of this and statistics but it would really get out of hand for something as simple as a monster "hierarchy".

IMO anything with a hitscan should be killed first, doesn't matter if you have a Cyberdemon infront of you, it's better to kill knowing there isn't a distance health-chipper around.

I mostly agree with this as well. Also would have been cool if monsters stayed on floor and a lot less of them teleported all the time. I would love to see a modern take on the game. Since imo tech would help Doom 3 a lot more than it would for Doom 1 and 2.

Is there any way to make more weapons viable in the mid-to-end game of DoomRPG? A lot of the time, you can't keep with even high-tier shotguns due to the low damage they do, and not even mod packs work well, either, since you can't use them on a lot of ones, and they don't make much of a difference.

Weeaboo mods and references and weapons can be seen dripping from the seams (Dragondoom Z, Sailor Moon Doom, Hokuto no Doom, etc), but they're mostly graphics changes and what gameplay changes there are play like complete shit.

Off the top of my head, only...two seriously change the gameplay, The Stranger and Demonsteele. Both are bretty good, but neither are Shogo-style--both of them deal with urban-fantasy demons-and-heroes, rather than robots or cyberpunk.

So, I decided that Uzis should, for some reason, fire Nail/flachette/Idunno sorta rounds, instead of standard 'bullets'. Mostly as an excuse to have bullet trails for their projectiles.

[Anonymous No.2342616]

>>2342598
Don't know if you care, but in real life, Flechettes absolutely suck out of a gun barrel (they work great when used in bombs though).
In -perfect- wind conditions, they can produce absolutely ATROCIOUS wounding on a persons body, but they're so sensitive to wind that they easily miss and cause minimal wounding most of the time.

What you could do is turn them into tracers, not that there's much of a practical reason for that, all it does is give away your position but it'll look cool as shit with a full mag of tracers.
They're more likely to start a fire I suppose. I guess you can say that they're special incendiary tracers that exist in whatever future Doom is set in.

Sometimes at gunshows you can find old Israeli made 9mm tracers from like the 1970's, that were specifically designed for the Uzi (don't always want to work consistently in all modern pistols because the primers are realy hard as they were made with the Uzi in mind, which has a fixed firing-pin that hits the primer with a lot of force)

Ok guys, I decided to follow your advice, so I finally learned CVARs. There are two of them on BD v20, one to replace the janitor, and one to control how much gore it has. I'm planning to add one that disables the advanced enemy behavior and change their damage values back to vanilla.

http://www.mediafire.com/download/eyaa9synegp8m6h/brutal20test-apr13.zip

Changelog:
- Fixed bugs related to dual wielding weapons. Now the ammo is shared with the regular weapons, and by firing the right rifle or the left plasma gun (or reloading them), will subtract/add ammo from the individual guns, and vice-versa.
- Fixed a bug with pinky demons breaking elevators.
- Shotgun will no longer play the pump animation during reloads if you already have a shell in the chamber.
- Added CVARs.
- "bloodammount" 1 to 4 (default 2): Defines how much blood is spawned. 1 is "realistic", with almost no blood, only spawned when there is a messy death, 4 is animu level of blood.
- "lowgraphicsmode" 0 or 1 (default 0): If it's on, projectiles will spawn less particles, and gibs and bloodspots will disappear after 30 seconds. Now you can play stuff like HR2 with acceptable FPS.

Firing left weapon on akimbo when running resets the sprites off-set, making it all jiggly.

Also kicking while akimbo with plasma guns turns the left weapon into an assault rifle (also those sprites have some white pixels and incomplete transparency)

Hey peeps. So...

After about a month of playing, I've finally beaten all of DooM with the BD mod playing in 12 in a 10pt scale of bad. Except for Cyberden and Go 2 It, I beat those on UV.

Where do I go? What do I do now? What's the next play?

I found myself really enjoying the feel of Cyberden and G2I. I'd probably say that Go 2 it was my favorite level overall. It was an oddly intimate dialogue with the level designer. God bless him.

Why is the weapon selection so bad?
Shotgun feels like its suppose to punch, but it doesn't against any enemy stronger than Knights.
Nailgun is okay, but it has no ammo.
Grenade Launcher feels okay, except its suicidal to use, and very hard to even aim. And it doesn't arc vertically like it does depth wise.
Rocket Launcher feels fine, except the game is built around Fiends, corridor 90 degree turns and teleporting enemies.

It just feels so weird compared to Doom, where all weapons at the least feel useful.

Honestly you'll have a better time playing it on PC anyway.

Quake's weapon selection isn't as varied, yeah. Quick breakdown of how to use each weapon:
Shotgun = pistol
Double Shotgun = shotgun
Nailgun = chaingun
Super Nailgun = plasma gun, use on the tough guys. This is important because some bosses take only half damage from explosions
Grenades = SSG and zombie gibber. Does more DPS than rocket launcher since it's faster
Rockets = rockets, except they can snipe
Thunderbolt = your BFG with limited ammo, use with quad damage for best payoff

I'd say stick with the double shotgun as a general arm and swap to the most appropriate weapon when it's needed.

For a source port go with Quakespasm, it's GLQuake with all the bugs fixed. If you want things like modified physics and high-res-texture and particle eyecandy out the ass, try Darkplaces (though it's not optimized very well).

And weird. There is something terribly wrong about it, and i don't know what. Its unplayable.


No, also for weapons? God no. No weapon carries over between Quake and Doom.
In Doom, all weapons deals decent damage, and Pistol is only shit because Chaingun has a decent rate of fire.
I also got the Thunderbolt, and I got to say: Its also a horrible weapon.
In Doom, if you wanted to open a door and clear a room, you have options. In Quake? Well, if you don't got rocket ammo, then go fuck yourself. No nailgun ammo either? Especially go fuck yourself.
Added bonus of moving slower? Rooms are smaller. Which makes rocket worse. I feel like every time there is a room full of
I think the idea is that instead of a weapon progression, there is a weapon curve. The reality is that it feels really bad, because neither the Nail Gun nor the 2x Shotgun is any form of upgrade over the Shotty.

There is also all the rooms with 3-4 ogres in them, I don't fucking even.

No offense intended. I just figured you'd have less trouble with a mouse since Wii aiming is a bit shakier, and it's game where precision is very important. Missing a lot can mean being short on ammo, like nails. I played WiiQuake before and it felt clumsier: especially the quick turns and snapshots you'll need to make when ambushed or surrounded.

My experience is that the game throws rocket and nail ammo at you by the armful past episode 1 and I had no trouble with ammo on Hard. The weapons have a steep linear curve of DPS, and an important habit is to use a weapon that is not overkill on the particular enemy you're fighting so you can kill a more threatening monster faster down the line.

Try using shells on a knight (2 db shots), grenades on ogres (2), nails on a fiend (34), and 20 cells can down a Shambler in 2 seconds. If you use your cells on all of the zombies then you'll be strapped when the Shambler shows up.
And then there's Quad Damage. Not sure how you can see such weapons as weak, and the progression is there: shells can do 80dps, nails 180, rockets 200 and cells 300.

I don't really get how you can have so much trouble not blowing yourself up, since many fights end up in either hallways or open spaces, too.

I'm just confused since I've never had issue with any of what you're describing, having played through Quake 1-4. Hope it helps, try giving it another shot and see how it works out.

There's a secret in Doom 64 that no one has found yet! I have yet to unlock it, but maybe you can. Here's what Tim has said about it, word for word:

The secret we can't remember how to do in Doom64 was in the level "Breakdown". All I remember is that there were 3 (i think) 'switches' you had to hit in order, then go to the room with the Red Key. That's where it played I believe. The last switch may even be in that room... I think another invisible switch was in the small (hidden?) room with the BFG. Again, the switch is invisible, it was on a wall that looked normal, but functioned like a switch. Perhaps when you've found a 'switch' wall, the character does not go "mmph!" ?? Would be a good indicator that you found it if it's true. The other was indeed most likely in the red key room. Probably on one of the pillars facing the 'secret' message. I can't remember where the other was - but i think i'm at least 80% sure the other 2 I mentioned are correct.

If you find it, please let me know. The Doom Community would love to hear who unlocked this one! :)
