Yeah, I shouldn't have been slacking off during the first half of the year, and now getting the new website ready is taking longer than I expected (mostly to customize phpBB 3).

ZDoom hasn't been officially updated in a very very long time.
If you want the new features, then use the SVN build, which can be easily found via the wiki.

Whatever happened to this?, bloodtype is still flagged as *development version only* on the Zdoom Wiki, whereas this thread was moved to closed feature suggestions long ago.

Of course it'll work. GZDoom 1.0.22 is based on the unreleased WIP ZDoom code.

Now that GZDoom has been updated to the latest Zdoom code, can I expect "bloodtype" to work there or I'll have to wait for a new Zdoom release?. The changelog doesn't tell much about it.

Nash's Gore Mod.

Warning: If you change zdoom.pk3 you lose all warranty and any bug report where such a file is used will be discarded on sight.

Or... you know... you could just put it in a DECORATE.txt file and load that on the command line, instead of editing zdoom.pk3.

Code: Select all

// Enemy-based Blood Color -------------------------------------------------

ACTOR Cacodemon2 : Cacodemon replaces Cacodemon
{
      BloodColor blue
}

ACTOR BaronOfHell2 : BaronOfHell replaces BaronOfHell
{
      BloodColor green
}

ACTOR HellKnight2 : HellKnight replaces HellKnight
{
      BloodColor green
}
I don't know what Nash's blood wad does, but you could try putting the above in zdoom.pk3\actors\doom\doomdecorations.txt if all you want to see is green and blue blood painting the walls.

Where can I get Nash's blood color wad?

by Lemonzest » Sat Dec 16, 2006 6:37 pm

Yes this is very good, using nash's blood colour wad and love seeing green/blue blood all over the walls :D

It creates a translation table for each blood color and uses that the same way as a normal DECORATE translation or an ACS translation

Can you explain how Zdoom changes the color for blood sprites (like the blue ones in the image) when BloodColor is used?.

It should be in the 2.1.8 release.

Also, it wasn't clear to me whether you were talking about decals (the graphics that appear on walls) or sprites (the actors spawned in front of the enemy you shot, as indicated in your screenshot). If you just want to colorize the blood decals, I believe bloodcolor does that.

Blood decals are shaded for a very good reason (i.e. the ability to colorize them.) If you make them have their own color you defeat that mechanism. Sorry, this won't change.
