[Resource] Stone Golem Boss

Cutmanmike · Post by **Cutmanmike** » Sun Apr 20, 2008 4:37 pm

Here's a HUGE boss monster I've been working on for the past couple of days. I can't say I have a wad to put him in yet so if anyone can find a place for him, groovy!

Download: http://www.cutstuff.net/pub/doomwads/golembattle.zip

Video preview (for the extra lazy): http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UV4ZIxDP3RE

He's very large, and requires quite a bit of room. His attacks are slowly stomping around causing earthquakes, and summoning rocks to throw at you. He can summon two rocks at his side which he will proceed to launch at you or summon a round rock in front of him that he will slam and cause it to roll at you at a destructive force and speed.

The trick to surviving is to destroy the rocks he summons. Included is a test map to fight him in (and some badass Brawl music). If you plan to adopt him for your own wad, please note the following:

The Stone Golem likes:
* Fighting on flat land. Some of his attacks don't work right if you're higher than him or have obstacles blocking his rocks.
* Being a end level boss, or a rare hard enemy.
* Fighting at moderate range, but doesn't mind being in the distance.
* Having a clear shot at his targets (as little obstructions as possible)
* The latest version of zdoom!

The Stone Golem doesn't like:
* Ceilings lower than 780 units.
* Being boxed in with his target, as his stomps will kill them quickly.
* Having other minions in his way, because he'll slaughter them all by accident (unless they have the "Rock" resistance)
* Being in crowds of other Stone Golems, although does not mind fighting with a partner for those "epic" battles.
* Appearing in Joke wads, small projects or just arenas showing him off (apart from the one included with golembattle.zip)
* People who don't credit the authors!

Enjoy

Speaking of crediting the authors, where do his sprites come from?

Probably one of the only M&M creatures that needs no scaling and still makes sense in Doom. I like it.

I'm using that very same creature for a project of my own, however it'll be a bit different, but I'm not saying anything here.

Downloading now, I wanna check this out. Are you going to use this in a project? Perhaps Ghoul's Forest will become Golem's Quarry or something?

Might and Magic resources, courtesy of Bouncy (He's mentioned in the DECORATE file, don't worry!)

Haha very funny

I did imagine him in a valley of some kind though, slowly making his way to you from a distance. And no anyone can use this as long as they plan to use him for something serious.

Resource huh? Could save me the trouble of trying to decorate a stone golem myself for the first level of my Hexen mod. XP

Whats with the white screen that blinds you when the Golem hits you with a rock and never fades away? is this a bug? edit: I tried this normal ZDoom and it never happened, so is this a GZDoom bug?

He dies too easily, personally.

This looks seriously awesome, my only complaint is this:

I hate the extremely slow walking / death animation. I understand is supossed to be slow, but that's just too extreme. If that is sped up, it looks way better. Much more fluid

However, all the attacks looks obsene (in a good way

)

Works for me in the latest GZDoom. Try grabbing a newer version?

He was stronger but it just made him tedious to fight. I was going to include some stronger weapons to fight him with buuuut I decided to quickly lower his hp.

I prefer him slow, after all it's supposed to be a boss of some sort. I didn't want him dancing around shooting A_CustomMissiles like every other boss out there

Works for me in the latest GZDoom. Try grabbing a newer version?

I got the new version (the one you linked) but that white screen still pops out randomly during the fight for no reason.

Very odd indeed. PM Graf, see if he can give you an explanation.
