JP's many mini mods

Post by jpalomo »

Requires a recent git build of QZDoom or GZDoom (recommended)

I'm sure some people are probably aware of some of my other smaller mods (hookshot, jphud). I've decided to post the rest of the others I have made here.

Smooth water
Replaces Doom's water with smoother animated water textures. Doesn't require the main file.


Main file (*required)
Provides the menu, CVars, and stuff needed for the scripts. Required to use any of the below mods.

Hover
Hover for a short duration when in mid-air. This can be activated manually or automatically. Sound effect by Nintendo.

Lock-on
Lock-on to your targets and track their movements. Works great with joysticks. Sound effect by Rare.

Grapple
Use a grappling hook on enemies and reel them in, or use it on terrain to reach new heights. Unlike hookshot, this comes bundled with sounds and sprites by Rogue Entertainment.

Extra Start Weapon
Simulates the coop shotgun start dmflag from Skulltag and applies it to other games as well. To use it, add 2048 to dmflags2 or enable sv_shotgunstart. Not mod friendly

Multi-jump
I know this has been done multiple times, but it can't hurt to do it again. Jump multiple times in mid-air. Now properly resets when landing on objects.





See the controls menu to bind necessary keys.

Options:
The mod options menu will be populated by items that are relevant to what you have loaded. Don't be surprised if you find an empty menu.

Player options
  • hover activation (cl_hover_activationtype) - Use a custom key, hold jump, or automatic activation for hovering. See controls menu for binding the custom key.
  • smart auto-hover (cl_hover_smartauto) - When using automatic hovering, control when it activates. Dumb always activates, smart activates when you drop over a certain height, smarter includes smart and also activates when above certain surfaces.
  • lock-on targeting (cl_lockon_toggle) - Hold/toggle lock-on targeting, or disable it completely. See controls menu to bind a key for lock-on targeting.
Server options
  • maximum mid-air jumps (sv_maxjumps) - Adjust how many mid-air jumps can be performed by all players. Use a value of 0 to disable.
  • hover duration (sv_hovertime) - Adjust the maximum length of time that any player can hover. Use a value of 0 to disable.
  • allow hookshot (sv_allowhookshot) - Enable/disable grappling hook for all players.
  • allow lock-on (sv_allowlockon) - Enable/disable lock-on targeting for all players.
  • start with extra weapon (sv_shotgunstart) - Start with an extra weapon in cooperative games. Changing this does not reflect on the dmflags.


Enjoy! :D

Great stuff!

Have you thought of combining Multi-jump & Hover?
So if you double-tap jump & hold jump it would hover...

Not have commented before, but these ones are lovely addons! :wub:

By the way, a customized version of the Grapple (HookShot) has been now included in my H-Pack mod, you know, I found it sooooo useful... :whip:

Keep doing the nice work JP! :thumb:

I just noticed. I'll have to take a look at that mod again. I may start working on more stuff again. At the very least, I'll update my Lock-on mod since I just updated my HUD. I just updated the Extra Start Weapon mod. I changed it a few months ago but forgot to upload it.

Wow! That lock-on is really cool, reminds me of Dark Souls or Ocarina of Time, very neat stuff!

The best part about that for me is that it works with any control setup. I made that because aiming properly on a touchscreen is nearly impossible (it works with Doom Touch). I've just updated it with the recent changes I made to my HUD. I've also updated the bundle to include the previous changes, as well as including the smooth water mod with it.

I forgot to update the mirror links. Whoops. I just went ahead and tested each of these with the latest Zandronum beta build. To my surprise, 3 of them actually worked: Multi-jump, Smooth Water, and Lock-on. With a little work I can get Extra Start Weapon working too.

Lockon includes the healthbar, though i might change that now. I guess I should add my 64k comp entry here too.

thanks for the reply, and yes i see a health bar whenever i lock-on an enemy but not while freely aiming, and that's what i want, i assume that is a configuration issue, so how do i make it display health bar while just aiming? by the way i'm using hxrtc hud pb version 3.3 made by cotton disciple in case that has something to do with all this
