ZDoom

And thank you for your kind words. I am indeed having fun tweaking stuff and testing variants ! I am currently testing with a single bullet counter, and it feels much easier to keep track of. (The oldschool ketchup-and-mayo: alternate between bullets and shells) The 1911 (45?) was the only weapon ...

I wanted to report that this is a very solid, very enjoyable mod, and I understand why several mods are based on this. However I think it has a problem of bullet ammo management. No matter what kind of map I play, I see that I am quickly out of bullets for the weapon I'm using, while topping off the ...

- The lack of auto-fire on charging weapons feels quite wrong :/ If you re-press too early, nothing happens, and on many weapons you don't see it unless you look at the HUD. What do you mean, you don't see it? With all those weapons (that I've found), there is no auto-fire, if I release a shot and ...

Some feedback, after playing +/- 6 hours with it : - chainsaw idle sounds seem way too loud. - Ammo can be a very serious issue if a tough guy becomes legendary, especially early in a map. I know such issue disappears in the very long term (collect backpack, hoard ammo, possibly find a ammo-friendly ...

About switches, I guess the least disruptive change would be to make the grappling hook have a smaller hitbox : it's always available, and centered. The change would make it a bit harder to hit monsters, but on the other hand it would be less blocked by nearby walls.

The torch is one of the most powerful / versatile sub-weapons IMO. You can shoot and go away while the flames do their work, especially since monsters approach you and will happily jump in the flames. It's a very interesting gameplay which would merit being the main weapon for a spellcaster ...

Actually the charged gauntlet has an area of effect, so against humanoids hiding behind bars it's a solution. (I guess the staff will come back for "other characters" :wub: ) Oh, and by the way I saw it's possible to use the hook to grab distant chests and spellcubes. Handy when they are dropped by ...

This plays wonderfully ! I was dubious about ditching the staff, but the gauntlet looks and plays very convincingly. The current weapon offsets seem OK to me. When you're using a wall angle for cover, if your right arm is free you can use the gauntlet weapons, and when it's you left arm you can use ...

The leech rebalances the fact that health packs are replaced by smaller health pickups (If you boosted the health pickups I could go without the staff leech). I noticed it was not possible to use hook or force wave while holding the powered weapons, not sure if it was unfinished or a voluntary ...

Shield bash: It's just that if you're in melee range with several imps, it's impossible to break cover and strike without being hit : you have to step back first. I feel I get more damaged if I carry the shield and try to use it, rather than dodging, but it may be the lack of training. In any case ...

Just tested the mod for the first time (v0.9), the 16 first maps of Plutonia : it worked great. I set mouse wheelup for "reload", this way the wheel down switches between the two weapons and the wheelup switches between the powered and normal versions. One regret : How a lot of the map power-up get ...

Remember the original Revenant has 2 weaknesses that provide extra ways of fighting them : 1) his melee animation is very expressive -> You can close to melee range, dodge, repeat - this denies them from firing rockets. 2) missiles have small turn angle and average speed -> You can sidestep to dodge ...

> it seems I cannot please anybody. Well I don't think anybody would scream if you used 'vanilla Revenant rocket' behavior. It is already familiar to players, and stays balanced with the enemy which is overall slower but (I think) more resilient than what it replaces. If you feel it's too lazy, well ...

Just in case you missed it, Zdoom allows you to use sprites of any resolution, you're not limited to the same pixel size as vanilla Doom. I think it's the XScale and YScale fields of Actor. Even for spawned things, it shouldn't be hard to use miniaturized Doom monsters so that the player gets a ...

Like the doors of Moria : "Speak f*, and enter".
