[Anonymous No.4336069]

>>4335986
Ok, so. This is a splash screen for a mod called High Noon Drifter. OP picture is the raw original, the actual thing you can see in the screencap and it's a black silhouetted version.

The chaingunner thing is a meme in Doom maps, especially Plutonia but also later where a mapper will put a chaingunner far, far away from the player. Hitscanners have pretty much infinite range and will continuosly drain player's health, as player might not even realize who is shooting them as chaingunner might be a few pixels tall at this point. Hence, hidden chaingunner on a faraway mountain.

Is that spoonfeedy enough for you?

I'm replaying Deus Ex right now - haven't played it since release. I won't moan about the graphics or anything, but I think the story and setting has aged the game dreadfully. It's so top-heavy, too long, and filled with too many pointless parts with little individuality. It especially seems to get really boring and convoluted after you blow up the ship.
It makes me appreciate Doom just that bit more. I'll probably replay Doom 64 after this.

in 2014 it was ruled that games made games made 15 years prior were retro. 2014 was 3 years ago, so you add 3 to 1999 (you can use a calculator) and you get 2002. Deus Ex was made in 2000 ergo it is comfortably within the 4chan definition of retro

That's not the rules, but Deus Ex looks so fucking dated that people forget it actually isn't from 1997, so often it slips through.

[Anonymous No.4336442]

>>4336435
Probably with a bunch of ACS and ZScript.

Also wasn't that the game that went apeshit with the fourth entry or something? Like you play as the villain of a previous game, and the ghost of a king he killed stalks you throughout the game no matter what you do, and he would continue stalking you even if you paused the game, taunting you as he got closer and closer, and if he caught you it was game over, maybe it even deleted your save or something, I can't remember.
What was it, the Ghost Of Trebor? I don't think you could fully recreate his abilities, you could make him noclip and just make him ceaseless, but he couldn't move when paused.

I think they also took people's submitted player characters from previous games (which were power leveled, of course) and made them enemy encounters.

One of the more vanilla-oriented parts out there. Closer to GLQuake than original DOS Quake obviously so it doesn't have texture dithering, but perfectly fine otherwise- make a text file named 'autoexec.cfg' in your \quake\id1\ folder and add the lines
gl_texturemode gl_nearest_mipmap_linear

I played it yesterday but I'm now at work so apologies if I misremember something

map01 - it definitely looks like a swamp although I think deep water (not the slowing kind) could add a lot to the atmosphere, the encounters could also do with reworking, most of them are large flat spaces with trees for cover - very basic, I really liked the lava sky but the way it abruptly ends kind of ruins the effect

map02 - i didn't play this as I played the first draft earlier but of course he adds a void area. I don't recall much gothic texture usage, it just looks like all your other infested techbases

map03 - some cool setups here but they really suffer from restricting yourself to revs, I got the impression that you're supposed to run at the start (which is great!) but then you're cornered against 6 revs with just enough ammo to survive but then the alternative - to attack each group separately - isn't as fun, those two revs behind the door would work better as pinkies I reckon, same with the lowering revs room: a couple spectres would go along way. and again with the final room, a horde of revs is very predictable and very tiring by that point

On or off, it doesn't really matter. QS automatically leaves certain things uninterpolated (i.e. the Nailgun muzzle flash) no matter what 'cause they look like shit interporlated, but for enemies or other animations it's up to you.

Even if you turn animation interpolation off, though, make sure you leave MOVEMENT interpolation (cl_lerpmove) enabled, even if the readme/help/other forums tell you to toggle both at once- turning off movement interpolation means having enemies 'move' by teleporting around in small steps and sometimes really big steps, which works fine on DOS at 320x200 on a fuzzy CRT but is a hell of a lot more noticeable at 1080p on a modern monitor.

This much is true, but if you're young enough to have never used a CRT, you won't be aware of the *massive* step down in colour reproduction when we moved from CRTs to early TFTs.

I've gathered that ngons are bad. How should I solve them where the barrel connects to the body of the gun though? Or basically any time a cylinder connects to something with fewer radial vertices.

you are not bound by precise vertex connections and polycounts when you render models as sprites, so dont worry about connecting barrel to other models, it can be a separate object if you want, just make sure its rigged properly if you are animating in blender.

I think it's the constant spawn functions rather than the rendering of the particles themselves that really messes things up. If not, there's a max particle cvar that's easy for anyone to set.

Remember going overboard with particles for the first version of the lightning function. Funny how it's so much less performance intensive to use 3d models for this. This caused massive performance hits, and since it ran on ACS had to be finely tuned to not run into the instruction limit.

In this one instance I think he has a legit reason (not owning such a card that is). This boner he has for vulkan and the resulting refusal to open up any interesting renderer-related modding features does get on my nerves a bit though.

It's fairly well known that AMD and OpenGL don't exactly go hand-in-hand but you probably knew that. Easy to see for yourself in D44M where basically if you have an AMD card you choose the vulkan renderer and if you have an NVidia you use the OpenGL one.

> I really do want to keep the current look but yeah, it really doesn't perform well at all in really intense situations. The mod itself is basically done so now I'm optimizing and my god is it ever a pain.
What about using voxels, (or voxels converted to 3d model cubes with identical appearance for XY axis rotation i.e pitch) and instead of spawning a new cloud of them every frame you have a single one and make it warp with the projectile while iterating trough a pattern of "random" frames?

>Yeah, supposedly but then again there's a lot of stuff that supposedly works fine in GZDoom that doesn't work well at all.

No, people offered to send him cards, he rejected them. His real reason is that he's either too lazy or not competent enough to optimize for AMD, so he doesn't even try.
>What about using voxels
I'm trying to have methods that don't use sprites in place, but aren't voxels even more expensive?
>instead of spawning a new cloud of them every frame you have a single one and make it warp with the projectile while iterating trough a pattern of "random" frames?
Oh you just gave me a wonderful awful idea, I might have to try it.

I'm pretty sure it's not VRAM issues that make your particles lag but the CPU hit from the spawning. Using a single warping actor, even if it demands a little bit more from the GPU, might be beneficial. And you can run DistanceCheck on them in that case.

>proper ZS docs
They're slowly growing into place. I wish it was all more documented from the start (I mean at least some *comments* in the damn pk3..) but compare it to quake modding documentation and shudder. That said, I could really fucking use some "ZBar" tutorials/docs.

Yeah I figured, my terrible awful idea is to have each projectile spawn some set amount of particles and just warp them around behind the thing and fade out, then when they fade warp them back into place. The mod isn't ZS but if I get really bored I might just convert it. It's already 2.4.0 minimum so I might as well just up it to 3.0.0 and be done with it.

Brutal doom is liked by noobies who don't appreciate the original 320x200 35fps no vertical aiming experience, and is largely responsible for an influx of such into the communities.

Also it """stole""" assets (which personally I think is BS, since I thought it was just understood in an open source game modding community that everything is shared, and putting assets together to create cohesive and good mods was just something everyone approved of from the get go, and that in any mod with tons of assets it was assumed that some of those were taken from earlier mods, seeing as DOOM itself is open source and the whole modding community resides on something someone else made, also he put credits in the credits page)

Also he's kind of an ass (which I think doesn't matter, I don't have to talk to him to play his games, and if he's a content creator he's worth more than 50 'cool chill' guys who don't produce anything anyway)

Also I hear the code is shit, and shitty to read, which does sometimes suck because of the frame drops


But still I haven't seen a mod like it with animations put to such effective use, it really makes the game 'come alive' in my opinion.

The rub is that, unlike other works, mark didn't credit any of the people whose assets he used, going so far as to antagonize the people who he refused to credit and go after people for using "his" assets when they had actually got permission from the original creators. When called out for this he never admitted it, just suddenly disappeared from a thread.
He also put his name and nobody else's anywhere in credits for the mod, meaning he got credit for alot that wasn't his, and his fans would attack artists using their own assets for using things bd used.
He also has a habit of, while not outright claiming he did things source ports do, going along with suggestions that he did, eg
>clickbait journalist: It's so neat how you hacked doom to use 1080p display and dynamic lights and 3d floors and made a million custom pixel arts, when did you find time to do this all by yourself?

Except Valiant's modified gameplay is objectively superior to vanilla Doom:
>Chaingun has doubled rate of fire, no longer being overshadowed by Super Shotgun, kinda like Plasma Gun except trades perfect accuracy for hitscan
>Pistol has nearly doubled rate of fire, now a decent sniper weapon vs frail enemies
>50% extra bullet max capacity and 50% extra ammo in clips, no longer disproportionately scarce compared to their low damage-per-ammo
>Imps and Demons buffed to be actually threatening
>Hell Knights buffed so hard they're a much larger threat than Mancubi and Revenants
New monsters are meh, but buffs to old staples are very good. The mapset itself also has a higher good-to-shit ratio than Ancient Aliens.

I present to you, Babel RC1: Particle Shitshow Edition
https://mega.nz/#!P4E0AaqR!4BgoQGKW-Zow6AY2V6CrqOsfCIWsEaNBYk78BW8cXTI

Feel free to enjoy so long as your processor can handle it, and take it apart to learn how bad of a coder I can be when I'm trying to force shit to do what it isn't meant to. By the next version I should at least have it able to not melt your computer when more than ~20 enemies shoot at you at once. I'd also highly recommend tuning the performance options if you do encounter issues, turning off particles and using model tracers can be a big boost.

I remember someone complaining aggressively when I called Valiant slaughter once.

[Anonymous No.4340751]

>>4340703
The difference is that Chaingun fires its projectiles in pairs and both of the first two start with a perfect accuracy, letting you preserve it with minor drop in effective rate of fire by tapping the fire button. Valiant's pistol still fires single projectiles, so it takes more effort to time the shots perfectly and you'll likely drop your rate of fire further. Long story short, it no longer takes forever to kill small groups of humans and imps or snipe individual ones, but fighting something like Revenant with it is still not viable. So it actually fills a set but minor niche in your arsenal both before and after acquiring Valiant's Chaingun and other weapons.

Ironically in the alpha release of quake 2 they had sprite based explosions that I thought were better than the 3d ones (or could have been), and they had something for muzzle flashes too but it was never implemented. Instead they used the same effect as a bullet puff for a muzzle flash (succcks)

We have had the discussion of weapon balance about Q2 before and nobody could come to a consensus. However as a master game designer I put forth my recommendations:

The normal shotgun should be replaced by the SSG and the amount of damage it does should be reduced slightly (while also firing two narrow cone hitscans side by side that do 20 damage each - so the weapon fills both roles of spread and distance shooting).
- I would set the damage at two 20dmg musket ball slugs (4 degree cone each) + 16 pellets that do 4 damage each (104 damage total).

Keep the Chaingun but reduce its fire rate and introduce it 1 level later (max fire rate 900rpm, which is 50% faster than the machinegun anyway). Give the player more hand grenades in place of the first machinegun pickup.

Rockets and Grenades should be the same ammo, you should only get a Grenade Launcher. However a clip-on module to the weapon gives you an Alt-Fire (or switchable on the same weapon number) that allows you to fire the grenades as RPGs with it. However since you have to cycle through the arcing GL weapon first to select the RPG it hampers quick switch to it.

> the GL looks sexier than the RL, and I can easily see it shooting rockets.


Making a comeback as a nod to Quake 1, in multiplayer games the BFG should be replaced by a Lightning Gun that looks and functions mostly like the Q1 version.

how about breaking the rules and using a different palette? may I suggest the HD one I came up with? (palette is in the pic, its 8bit)

You load this up by making a new playpal, importing from a .png file (this one), then build the extra palettes off of it.

Then you build a Colmap from that.

I make demons spit big fireballs now. They do hefty damage but they're slow and they have a grav arc. Now if they're piling up down in a pit (or even above you) they can still be deadly to you. But unlike imps or other monsters they cant shoot across the map, so they're still a close-up type of monster.

> also gets them to do infighting too, but their projectiles do 7 dice of damage so they can really take a chunk out.


>>4341223
Probably an upgrade weapon that looks abit beefier but generally the same kinda look as the grenade launcher. Different color too (hazard yellow is awesome, as proven by the rocket launcher frmo UT).

Also I would have made the hyperblaster look more like some kinda machinegun, not a multi-barreled weapon but abit more like a thicc laser rifle of some kind. I would have reduced its fire rate a tiny bit to compensate for the lack of a spin cycle.

Another big thing they messed up on, continuing the trend from quake 1, was making the enemies who use the same ammo as you do cause much less damage. Instead I would have had those monsters do the same damage as the player's version of the weapons and given the player a 2/3 damage reduction against them (ie, so enforcer grenades do 40 instead of 120). And would have made all monsters receive 1/3 damage from their own weapons.

[Anonymous No.4341252]

>>4341249
However by doing that, any splash weapons used by the enemy would have the same splash radius as your own grenades and rockets - they would just cause 2/3 less damage than usual at a given distance from ground zero.

I just find it silly that you can pick up grenades or bullets from enemies, but the ones they're shooting do pitiful damage. Especially when they shoot each other with them, it takes so long for them to kill each other while I can pop 2 grenades and practically wipe a whole room.

Infighting should be quick and brutal between monsters - yeah its an effective tactic to reduce their numbers, but it also means it wont really buy you any time to run away.

* Story *

Doomguy was relaxing after a busy day. He was playing some games on Firefox 829. Suddenly, he had an idea. He phoned his friend at UAC, John Science.

John: Hello, Doomguy! How are you?
Doomguy: Unf! Urgh grunt!
John: An idea to effortlessly destroy all of Hell? We run a teleporter to Hell, pull them in one by one and a we fire half a dozen BFGs at what comes through? Sounds good! Can't see that going wrong!
Doomguy: Ungh oomph!
John: I'll talk to my boss tomorrow, see if he thinks we can do it. Pass by the lab when you got the time.


The next day...

Doomguy: Yeaargh!
John: Hey there, bud! I talked to my boss and I got some bad news. UAC cut our funding on Hell-related matters. Screaming something about "more rendering servers to the megatexture gods!," whatever that means.
Doomguy: Urgh...
John: Don't worry, it wasn't a flat out no. We got a pistol and a small teleporter.
Doomguy: Go f*** yourself!
John: Easy buddy, no need to get brutal. We show them that the idea works by killing demons and he gets us funding to upgrade the system. We'll build your dream killing machine. Let me show you the prototype...

Bat files don't work properly with modern GZDoom, you gotta load it manually.

And the game is much easier than regular Wolf. It seems there's less guards, enemies miss you, and they don't hit you as hard - I can stand right next in the enemy's face while surrounded and just wait there for a minute, where in Wolf if you stand close to enemy they will wreck your shit.
It's super fucking easy compared to the original.

Just play Wolf3D on ECWolf, you also get 1080p, automap and circlestrafing but it's much closer to originally intended difficulty.

[Anonymous No.4341656]

Wait, nevermind! It's not just easier, it's almost unplayable.
In Wolfenstein, you can hold down action button and run along the wall to see if there's any secrets while holding the button. This 'wall licking' let's you quickly check for secrets and since unlike Doom secrets are usually not indicated by anything, it's the only real way to 100% the game.

In this Doom TC? IT DOESN'T WORK. If you hold down action button, game will just register it as pressing it once. So you'd need to mash it constantly. Terrible and useless.

Considering that entire point of Wolf is that it's 50% a maze exploration game where you're supposed to find all the secrets, that makes it basically unplayable, and playing original in Dosbox is a better idea.

That's still bad. Wolf is partially about exploration, without exploration it's just a sub-par version of Doom with only hitscanners.

I had a really insane idea about how to implement pointers/TID-less actor reference in ACS back before ZScript came about: You spawn one invisible actor anywhere with ACS and give this single one a unique TID. Then in a loop you spawn a couple of hundred of them and set each of them to be the Target of the preceding one. To store a monster in this construct,you loop SetActivator(Pointeractor_TID, AAPTR_TARGET); an equal number of times to your index number then set whatever monster you wish to store there as the Tracer of that invisible actor.

I'd buy the rights to Blood and Duke Nukem and their expansions, then pay the original level designers to make two complete new episodes.

I would then have sourceports made for them, all allowing for EDuke32 tier enhancements and settings, with both OpenGL and original software style rendering as options, as well as fixing issues of previous ports.
On top of having software style rendering, they would have menus of compat flags to let you toggle certain features and bugfixes, allowing you to pick between original behavior and enhancementams as you see fit.
They would feature full mod and multiplayer support with available public servers.
Duke Nukem would feature the World Tour commentary track as a feature, and if it would at all be possible, interviews with old Sunstorm employees about their expansions, similar for Blood.
I'd like to include all the old Duke Nukem sidescrollers as bonus material as well. I'd have downsampled variants of AWO Duke Talk as an option, and feature downsampled variants of new lines.

Each game would have it's own bundle, and I'd price them at $10, porting them to all current consoles and operative systems. A decade down the line, I'd port them again, this would be available digitally at the low price, and for consoles I would also retail it as a double pack for $20

Also the software would be open source. Also I'd do this for Powerslave (both versions) and Shadow Warrior, on top of trying to license console ports of the original Quake and Quake 2 so kids can easily access and play them.
