ZDoom

Update: Addressed a performance issue where summoning certain demons would slow down GZDoom severely. These sprites were huge, so the workaround for now was to scale them down. Updated the description with a link to v.3.0.2 including the fix.

This mod is cool, but, need to ask a few things: 1) There is a version without the custom guns? To use another mods with My apologies for the late answer. I'm afraid not, but you can achieve this quite easily: 1. Unzip strangejourney.pk3 2. In strangejourney/MAPINFO.txt, remove this line ...

Update: Fixed a bug affecting the HD font spacing which became an issue in the most recent versions of GZDoom. I have updated the description with a link to v.3.0.1 containing the bugfix.

There is now a version 3.0 of the mod, featuring the gigantic map Eridanus 1F with 66 (!) secrets and tons of other improvements. Please see the enclosed readme for details. I have updated the description.

My apologies if I am posting this in the wrong subforum. It looks like it is not possible to compile ZScript code that defines a struct with no member variables and an actor that makes use of it: struct MyStruct { //int m_foo; // Uncomment to make it compile void do_stuff() { // ... } } class ...

Thanks for the hint regarding shader caching! I upgraded mesa from 18.0.3 to 18.2.0 (by replacing extra/mesa with aur/mesa-git) and I now see that files were created in ~/.cache/mesa_shader_cache/ upon launch. The startup time is now back at 1-2 seconds.

I recently did a system upgrade where I removed Chocolate Doom and updated GZDoom among other things. After doing this, I noticed that it takes significantly longer for GZDoom to start up (roughly 2 seconds -> 12 seconds). I captured the startup logs and an strace: $ strace -T -tt gzdoom -iwad ...

That did the trick. Thanks! Death: NULL A 0 A_Scream; NULL A 0 A_NoBlocking; NULL A 0 A_SetTranslation("Dead"); POLT AAAAAAAAAA 2 A_FadeOut(0.1); POLT A 0 A_FadeTo(1.0, 1.0); POLT A 0 { PoisonDurationReceived = 0; } POLT A -1 set_height_modifier(0.2); Stop;

Here is the weapon (Decorate): actor PoisonIperitta : Pistol replaces Pistol { States { Fire: PISG A 4 PISG B 0 A_FireBullets (5.6, 0, 1, 5, "PoisonPuff") PISG B 0 A_PlaySound("weapons/pistol", CHAN_WEAPON) PISG B 6 A_GunFlash PISG C 4 PISG B 5 A_ReFire Goto Ready } } And the puff (Decorate): actor ...

I have a weapon that inflicts poison damage, meaning that any monster that gets hit by it takes some damage every second until it is dead. When I defeat a monster with it and it becomes resurrected by an Archvile, the monster is still poisoned. How do I cancel the poison status upon death using ...

https://imgur.com/zRYJamz This mod is based on the Nintendo DS game named Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey and its recent remake on the 3DS, as well as other MegaTen games. This mod was basically memed into existence. I originally posted version 1.0 and version 2.0 of the mod on /smtg/ (4chan ...

Thank you both. I went with the simple but effective A_CheckProximity solution: actor HuaPoDSP : DSP { Weapon.SelectionOrder 3200 Weapon.AmmoUse 50 Weapon.AmmoGive 0 Weapon.SlotNumber 8 Inventory.Pickupmessage "You formed a contract with Hua Po!" States { Ready: HUPG A 1 A_WeaponReady Loop Deselect ...

I have implemented a weapon that spawns a monster of a certain actor class each time it is fired. I want to make sure that there can only exist at most one such monster at any given time. I figured that one way to do it would be to kill all monsters of that type (if any) in the map immediately when ...

Oh, I didn't know ZDoom development stopped in January this year. Well in that case, I will not make an effort to support it from now on. GZDoom and maybe QZDoom seem to be the future for cutting-edge Doom modding.

Thanks for the info.

My WAD uses ZScript and is targeted towards ZDoom/GZDoom users. Is there an easy way to make sure that ZScript is enabled in ZDoom whenever my userbase plays my WAD? I doubt the average user is tech-savvy enough to understand how to pass the -zscript argument to the executable.
