>I need to finish up monsters, implement Blaz's voice.
I thought you weren't going to put any talking because of that one time you tried putting in one liners, but I see what you're saying about finishing the other monsters. I'm looking forward to seeing the edits, but they still seem to fit in with the other monsters combat wise.

>And I feel like the mod is still pretty unbalanced because of some of the subweapons.
Yeah, this is true. I don't know which is which, but POW Dagger seems to completely dominate everything else as long as you're near the target. Once you get indoors it just crushes everything. Also, the missle subshot seems better than everything else since it drenches the battlefield with balls and damage. I remember when I used earthshaker all the time; not anymore.

>And finally I feel Blaz is a mess due to how convoluted his weapons are, like most people aren't aware that you can throw the sword, the life drain effects, etc.
Like another anon said, if you had a more information "How to Play" screen(s) then that'd help clear up a lot of confusion. For example: I thought you had removed the life-steal function because it didn't seem to be functioning, but that might be because I was too busy playing instead. Also, I didn't fully understand the rings/necklaces and their function besides powering up things.

>I could just be too hard on myself though
Probably. Blaz is fun as shit to play as, and his whole kit is fun to use; it just needs some clarification.

I fucking love GMOTA as it is now, and I can totally understand wanting to fix some item/weapon balance; however, you saying you want to "rehaul Blaz" reminds me of how you'd start changing things that didn't needed to be changed. I'm curious as to why and how you'd do the overhaul.

>> No.2581993

>>2581976

Yes.
WildWeasel made The Stranger, which is a super early gameplay mod and it shows, but even despite its age it's still pretty fun.
Otacon once made a mapset where you play as Priss and shoot possessed otaku. It's kind of dumb. Cool sprites, though.
Black Warrior is difficult as shit to acquire and unfinished as can be, but offers a very unique and different style of gameplay.
Swan Fox...well, everyone knows about Swan Fox. It's easily one of the most fun experiences I've had, but not a single one of it was intentional--mechanically, it's a total wreck.
Doom Radys Classes might be cheating a little bit since I think it was made by someone Japanese? But still, it's got a whole ton of anime and VN grills fighting demons.
And then there's HDoom, which is "japanese influenced" by virtue of "lewd anime demons" but that's about it.

Honestly, I'd love to have some kind of giant mecha/SHOGO style mod.

If DIZAK guy is still here I just wanna say the ammo pickups in map 6 was improved greatly however the only thing I'd recommend changing is getting rid of the two ammo boxes at the plasma rifle secret.

I was curious about how GZDoom could be modified to increase framerates for some players.

For example, a recent change to the source code in Git was to cast certain values as doubles instead of floats. That's a good thing for modern CPUs that perform double-precision floating point arithmetic natively, but can slow things down for older CPUs.

Also, current GZDoom requires a much higher GL version due to its increasing use of shaders, with a minute if any change in graphical detail, and also causes problems for users of certain videocards.

Dead in the bucket.
There have been comments about the SnapMap having more gameplay customizability than what was shown at E3. At a recent interview the devs were asked if Doom 4 could be made in SnapMap. They revealed that gameplay-location-wise it could be and that devs internally use the tool to block out the levels before adding detail.
Add to that additional developer toolset and the game might actually have the right combination to support initial creation of the mod community and longterm dedicated modders.
The devs also said the maps made through the SnapMap will be exchangeable through all platforms and that BethesdaNet will act as a hosting hub.

Key question is if Zenimax/Bethesda wants to monetize this.

By open they mean the visual openness, i.e. exterior scenes or in the demo that was shown the lava stream below the level you're at. Basically all that you see in front in the picture is for obvious reasons impossible to make in SnapMap. Primarily because SnapMap is gameplay oriented and those visuals, those surfaces are not part of the gameplay but of eye candy.

There might be a block type with the cieling open to reveal the sky but nothing more to somehow elevate the experience.

>> No.2583704

>>2583696

A massive black void that takes 3/4 of a massive sector with islands of architecture that you must either teleport to or use bridges to get to or run off the edges of things to get to.

It uses lots of slope based level design and abstract stuff, It's kind of inspired by Super Monkey Ball, just levels dangling in space.

However when you finish up in the black void, a immense sector which takes up 1/4 of the overall map opens up and reveals a insanely large room with a massive cube you can walk inside and fight monsters in, it actually has light and a roof that opens up to the sky.

It's basically going from 1 end of an extreme to another I guess.

But that doesn't work. Enemy damage is randomized to a stupid degree, so you cannot know how much damage they're going to do, so you can't effectively design around them.

No one said it was broken, just bad design, and I suspect that statement is hard to argue with. However, as you say, its part of balance, so maps would have to pick one or the other, and logically they'd pick the default. Still, I suspect if you just set damage values to the average, since they're normalized anyway, balance would work out more or less fine.

You seem to be visibly upset over how a WAD is managing monster traps (by the looks of things is either Plutonia or a custom WAD), and you're also blaming one of Doom's gameplay mechanics that rarely ever gets questioned for it.

First of all, what you need to do right now is to stop playing Doom for a while and calm down. I gotta say that I'm a bit curious over how you're complaining about such thing when Doom (or Doom 2 for that matter) never actually had such a strong amount of chaingunner traps in the first place, so I'm going to assume you're quickly jumping to the hard stuff right off the bat.

Therefore I must ask, why? You had the entire first episode of Doom (which arguably isn't that hard on Ultraviolence in the first place) to get accustomed to Doom's mechanics; you stand still, you die: that's one of Doom's most well-known laws. Nobody in the community actually puts chaingunners just to damage the player without actually leaving a bit of room for them to maneuver and take cover.

By the way, what difficulty are you currently playing on? Are you indeed playing Plutonia or another WAD?

I just played through one of the first levels of Doom 2 where they shove you in a darkened hallway with a bunch of chaingunners. If I recall, the number of chaingunners drop off quite a bit after that, so its not the end of the world or anything, just generally poor design.

>>2584582
It's generally how they're used outside of the stock maps at times. Some maps use them as hitscan turrets that will not stop until you take cover (and can also be unreachable in vanilla gameplay unless you get closer), and other have a tendancy to dump a chaingunner or two at point blank.

Although much worse are archvile and Spider Mastermind "turrets", those are just bullshit. Like the last level of Sunlust has unreachable Archviles that are very far away, but will attack if you get too close to the edges.

One of the main changes I've always cherished in both Doom 64 and the PSX version of Doom was both having weaker lost souls. You can literally take them out in a single shotgun blast, which is doubly good especially in D64 where they are thrice as aggressive.

Though one of my biggest beefs with it was also the fact that you could no longer block PEs from spamming because they made it so that they deal splash damage everytime a soul gets aborted.

In Black Ops 1
>One of the few CoD game I ever bothered to really play.
I enjoyed the perk in multiplayer that let you run for an infinite number of time.

Figures in the 2nd black ops they changed it to only be a 5 second extension before you stopped in your tracks panting heavily.

Advanced warfare luckily changed it back.

Still though I'm so tired of limited sprint. I love any game that encourages running and gunning, advanced warfare with the right perks lets you run infinitely and shoot whilerunning. Thats all I need.

To be more precise, what you need is a GPU that supports OpenGL 3 or higher. I wouldn't recommend settling for less than 4, though. While the new renderer will technically run on GL 3 cards, it runs like utter shit and gets framedrops in stock maps, never mind crazy high-detail Tormentor wads. Nvidia is also a better choice than AMD for GZDoom, because Graf doesn't have AMD hardware to test on and so can't optimize the renderer for it. That only compounds on AMD's inferior OpenGL support and generally leads to bad times all around.

"The Snapmap feature looks to me like it's something that could really extend the life of Doom and keep us playing it for years and years but does it include or are there any plans to include the ability to modify textures, character models, weapons, anything like that"?
Marty Stratton:
"The base Snapmap doesn't but I actually want to make this point. Snapmap is our approach to making everybody have the ability to mod "in some fashion" it doesn't in our mind replace our desire to make our tools and technology available like we always have to real programmers. Now I will say, if you've done that, if you've been a modmaker I highly encourage you to try Snapmap too because just the fuctionality in there is really cool. My favorite part about Snapmap is that everybody has all the data so is you've been a modmaker or somebody who makes levels or texture packs to have somebody play your stuff requires you to upload it and to download it and things like Steam Workshop have made that easier but with Snapmap literally everyone has everything and the only data that passes between clients is a little instruction file. The depth of the stuff you can make is going to blow you away. We had a guy in QA that made a piano. So I highly encourage everyone to try Snapmap but fear not, making our stuff available to you is near and dear to our hearts so it certainly isn't a replacement"

No, that's what I said. ZDoom has balanced out RNG and you can still kill archviles in 4 full SSG shots fairly consistently. In vanilla's skewed pRNG you'll definitely pull it off because you roll 15s...I think 39% of the time? As opposed to much closer to 33% in ZDoom.

flat alignment is so damn annoying in vanilla
sometimes, I end up just adding a new flat with it shifted so it lines up where I want to be (usually, it's just shifted 32px diagonally, since I'm generally trying to center a pad/light in an area that's 64 wide or something and don't want to move the room, and often I have other lights around)

being able to just align however you want in UDMF is so damn nice

Yeah, all you need are two files called PAK0.pak and PAK1.pak to play. Make a folder named "/id1" wherever your sourceport is. If you have the cd music, install it in there the way Darkplaces likes it.

For the future, this is also how different mods and maps are loaded. To load a mod, put its contents in a new folder (say, retrojam3dlc) the same way you did with your PAK files. Then, launch it like quakeport.exe -game retrojam3dlc. PAK files load in numerical order, so you can add more things and adjust their load order.

You can find loads of maps and stuff on Quaddicted, but like Doomworld they're moving to another host because AtomicGamer's closed shop.

I'm playing Plutonia for the first time, and it's my first foray into pistol starting as well. A few maps have given me trouble, but I've been able to grind through most with saves after most large fights.

cyberdens is not that hard. i can usually beat it, within one or two attempts.

you need to be able to rocket duel 4 cyberdemons, one at a time. there is plenty of room and rockets so circle strafing works fine.

the part right at the beginning with two archviles that teleport behind fake walls can be annoying. there's also a green brick room with some chaingunners that requires some wariness. other than that it's a case of finding the next switch. it's pretty obvious which ones let the next cyberdemon out.

Gonna make a pull-out drawer for that keyboard and mouse? Though I dunno about it being a 'small project' though, unless you've been working at an arcade for a few years.

Maybe if someone made better mods for zandronum, oh wait. No one does, its all Complex Dumb or MM8BDM classes mods or Dead GvH addons.

>nah hdoom guy needs to do it himself, he's got scores of people begging for it offering to donate for it but he won't do it because "he doesn't like it"
I don't really see anything wrong with this. If he doesn't like it, he's under no obligation to do it.
I don't care much for HDoom but whining about how your fetish isn't is pure faggotry.

There's plenty of good Zandronum mods, the problem is that nobody's hosting the good ones.

I'd be happy with new art but it looks like the artists got bored of it.

That way we would have delicious centaur pussy

Because they are closet gays, if you insult their sexuality they will come and say that they are not gay just because they like dicks.
Seriously, they will come with tons of excuses in order to prove they are not gay and in all of them, the general and biggest excuse is "I only like dicks, not men.". GAY AS FUCK.

To be honest, all I wanted to do was hold hands with her.

I would've been a lot more interested in an actual dating sim rather than Press X to Little Death.

Because they are SgtMark supporters, if you insult their mod they will come and say that they are not retarded just because they like reloading.
Seriously, they will come with tons of excuses in order to prove they are not retarded and in all of them, the general and biggest excuse is "Doom is about gore and cinematic kills.". RETARDED AS FUCK.
