LegenDoom [2.8.3] - LDL [4.2]

[FireSeraphim]

@Yholl: I been meaning to getting around to suggesting a few modifiers for the legendary weapons and I like what's there already but I hope you don't mind me suggesting a few more

• Courageous modifier:
  • While you're at full health, your weapons do twice as much damage
    (this modifier is sort of a Legend of Zelda reference)
    (I would say most of the weapons would be ideal for this)
• Chain Lighting modifier
  • Kinda oblivious but basically causes damage to jump from
    enemy to enemy
    (Ideally it would be applied to the plasma rifle and bfg9000)

[Arctangent]

well, the active sound comes from them, but the sound is perceived directly by the player, rather than it being heard from where the monster is positioned, isn't it? and it's the same with the laughter sound?

There's nothing that strange with those sounds. They're just played without allowing them to fade with distance.

Basically, they're played as 0D sounds, instead of 3D sounds.

[Yholl]

Courageous

Yeah, sounds like a good one I haven't got yet, I'll write it down. I'll probably give it a different name though.

Chain Lighting

Chain Lightning is kinda difficult to do, I'll pass on that.

Kinda oblivious

heeeeh

Basically, they're played as 0D sounds, instead of 3D sounds.

I wasn't talking about the laughter, since I have no idea if it's given that treatment, I'm just talking about a boss's active and death sounds.

[4thcharacter]

There could be also a legendary weapon that has a "curse" effect as well. Basically any monsters that are hit with "cursed" weapons will be attacked by it's fellow monsters.

Kinda like the curse spell on Wrath of Cronos.

[Viscra Maelstrom]

well, whatever the treatment the sound of boss enemies are given, that particular behavior is what pre-determines a boss-enemy usually, isn't it?

[KILLER2]

No, it comes from them. I'm not sure why you would think that.

Probably because at some point bosses used to have global sounds in Doom (IIRC).

[4thcharacter]

It still is, any sounds coming from bosses (minus the things they fire or summon if they can) will be played at higher volume and you can hear their death and see rattles no matter where you are. On the laugh sound, it's probably played in the same way too.

[Yholl]

The Sight sound, is the sound when a monster sees you. For a boss, this is played at full volume throughout the map.
The Active sound, is the sound of a monster's idle noise, like a growl. That's what the Active sound is. It is never played at full volume.
The Death sound is like Sight, played at full volume for bosses.

The laughter of Legendary bosses, and all other sounds associated with Legendarification, are not played at full volume throughout the map.

I know you are thinking of sight when you say active, but when you use the exact term for a different thing, I am very very confused.



I'mma go to sleep now ok bai

[Viscra Maelstrom]

oh christ, i'm an idiot. i was referring to the sight sound, yes. i guess i messed up the word "active" with "activated." sorry for that bundle of hassle.

[Viscra Maelstrom]

woops. if you hold down the fire-button when using the Triple Threat BFG, subsequent shots will not be in spread, but instead just fire a single ball.

[Arctangent]

stuff

i blame viscra okay

[Mav3rick]

Yholl by any chance will you be adding some new enemy types or something between the lines? dunno maybe from a chaingunner/sargent it will morph into something else or they will apear as normal and flip the switch when they go into active mode

2 words for ya
Weapon Mod

[Viscra Maelstrom]

yeah, this is designed so you can play it with any monster mod possible, since it's compatible with pretty much everything.
