hey is pretty good just few things i notice.

1.. the static screen is too heavy, even when you see slender at a decent distance and almost left me blind with no direction to run away
2.. no make him apeart in front of the player, better close to it and maybe add a sound to make it more "dramatic"
3.. try to add some sound, ambient or even for the monsters will make things more actives than just wonder and then run away, try to play with the surrounding to make the player be alert or to make him fall into a trap

so far is good but i have been killed by slender with the constant jumping in front of me ¬¬

1.. the static screen is too heavy, even when you see slender at a decent distance and almost left me blind with no direction to run away

Really?
Strange, I thought I had that issue worked out
Even if I have 25% health and I look at slender from the edge of flashlight's range, I can still see where I am going.
How far were you from him?

2.. no make him apeart in front of the player, better close to it and maybe add a sound to make it more "dramatic"

I was thinking about less aggressive behavior for enemies.
However, this aggressive behavior makes the game bit more tense, since anything could happen any time soon! (At least, it seems that way to me)

3.. try to add some sound, ambient or even for the monsters will make things more actives than just wonder and then run away, try to play with the surrounding to make the player be alert or to make him fall into a trap

Well, I tried to add some ambient sounds and more sounds to every single ghost... I guess it isn't enough

Long distance

And close

It can be agressive but they practically rap me pussing in front every time i turn and some times it seems they drag you or hold you back, and more the one with a black robe, that is way annoying with the constant pushing around >.<

3.. try to add some sound, ambient or even for the monsters will make things more actives than just wonder and then run away, try to play with the surrounding to make the player be alert or to make him fall into a trap

Lol well the more the better

but yeah the level of aggression is too high and make it very frustrating, after picking up 2 pages in the cementery that are pretty close to the beggining i was killed 70% by slender and 25% by the one with the robe, the other one no idea what it is lol

Hmm, It seems you have large limit for gray noise... you should go to Menu -> Mod Options -> Gray Noise -> Limit and set it to 10 or less... that should help.
(It seems I didn't properly balance the noise levels )

And about that aggression, I suggest playing on easy. (That should make the ghosts less deadly)

[RaveYard]

Now I am currently working on update to ensure that Zandronum 2.0 works properly... and to make the game more... "dramatic" (or just slower paced)

Also here are few bugs I am going to fix:

Code: Select all

 - Too much noise caused by error in ACS
 - Cheaper noise effect doesn't work properly
 - MAP03 broken sector inside one train

I might set up a BE server for Ghosted 2 v2 ...

(If I get to it )

[Devianteist]

Nabbing this for singleplayer reasons. I love horror games.

New update has been uploaded

This fixes bugs, adds achievements and makes the ghosts easier...

[RaveYard]

New update again! Version 2.0.2
This time it's mainly for multiplayer... yea
For anyone interested there is Zandronum server ":: [BE] Montreal :: Ghosted 2 - 2.0.2"

The major update is that software renderer works online and the most important thing... everything looks bright for spectators!!!

But don't worry, for GZDoomers the MAP06 has been extended in size, the skeleton ghost is weaker (maybe too weak) and three new achievements!
http://www.mediafire.com/download/fzod7 ... v2_0_2.zip

For those who want more choice in your lighting, this addons adds lighter and glowsticks
http://www.mediafire.com/download/0timu ... n_v202.wad
Throwing the sticks at ghosts is rude!

Any bugs or suggestions?

[RaveYard]

The update that was supposed to be two or three weeks ago, is here!

Also, I probably haven't mentioned that Jason Dagenet has joined as developer. Thanks to him, the new version of Ghosted 2 got some upgrade in music and sounds

Changes:

• All Ghosts upgraded, but mostly the Slenderman has now much more awesome effect.
• New music (for all maps and intermission) and new sounds!
• Added new MAP07
• Gray noise now appears only for 10 seconds when getting hurt, or when looking at Ghosts. In another words, it's not annoying anymore.
• Regeneration is bit faster when standing still.
• The game now should be bit harder on harder difficulties than it was before.
• Added cvar G2_Skill which forces the game's skill instantly to other (0 being default cvar skill, 1 Very easy and 5 being Nightmare)
• Added two new achievements. Denied and Saviour...

Where did you get the flashlight?

[Agentbromsnor]

Before I download it and play it for myself, I feel like I can already comment on what you presented so far.

First of all: it's great to see more horror GZDoom / Zandronum projects!
Second: I've seen that flashlight in a lot of other mods before... I wish this would get more custom resources to make it stand out.

If you like, I can help you with creating some custom assets. As a "professional" graphics designer, I can do this fairly easily. Let me know!

[simplerdoomer]

Really? Where?

I'm pretty certain I've seen it before in Who Dun It.

Oh, that? That is the Doom 2.5 flashlight, so credit goes to Kronos for that.
