ZDoom

These look awesome! I don't care what anyone says about it not being worth it to do higher res sprites and them never being completed. No one will finish one unless someone starts it. Keep it up! I have some experience with blender and texturing and rendering sprites. So if you need some help in that arena feel free to message me and tell me more about your process. Cheers!

Thanks

Thanks from all of us!

Hi.
I said somewhere that I planned to release something by the end of septemper IIRC... well, that obviously didn't happen, for a few reasons.
Since I'm not sure I'll ever get back to this project, I decided to release the mod with whatever I've already done at this point.

You can find more details here:
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=51005

I know a lot of areas could have improvements but it'll have to do (still much better than the vanilla games IMO).

Some sprites made for the mods (except for the MP40, Chaingun, non-throwed knife and flamethrower, everything else is new since my last sprite releases, including the thinner "luger").
More can be found on the link from my previous post, you'll just have to open the PK3 files.



OBS: The kar98 sprite was based on [this] image by DennisBelmondo.

Great Coffee Break sprites! You might want to increase the border size on the KAR98 sprite, or lower the arm, as the corner of the border cuts off the arm a bit. Other than, that, awesome!

Hooooly crud those are excellent improvements!! Excellent work!... Although that MG34's drum magazine looks way too bright!

EDIT: Darn it, darn it. I mean MG34.

Yes, I'm aware of that. Problem is, it was starting to get too wide and I animated it manually with code on ECWolf, thus, if I changed the sprite width I would have to align all the animation again for the Kar, so I went the lazy way and just lowered the sprite y-axis in-game. :-p

Thanks, these frankensprites were hard to do right, but I'm mostly happy with them.
I didn't like how the MG34-like gun ended looking a bit small, similar to a M249, but eh, it's not supposed to look realistic anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ummm... ye, Maybe...

Thats a great looking MG 34 you have there
Nice Work

Any chance of seeing a proper green version of Trans and the Death Knight with his eye scope thingy in glorious 128x128 resolution.

Like this?

I never understood why the targeting scout was left out of the Death Knight's hi-res Mac sprite. Sure it's not a must-have, but nevertheless, it made the Death Knight look even mode badass.

"TOD IST MEIN LEBEN!!!"

Yea, but Trans looks a little "palette-raped".


Something like this. Though it still don't look quite right to me.

Probably 'cos the original port that came with the hi-res sprites was a rushed product (Atari Jaguar) put together over a weekend, hence why a lot of stuff was missing and the enemies had reduced amount of frames.

Well, at least it's kinda faithful to the original DOS Wolf3d now. And gotta be honest, the original Mac sprite of trans looks poorly improved than i thought.

Did a little work on the guard again. Here's a comparison gif:



I took a few artistic liberties with regards to the collar out of personal preference, but before I do any more work, I'm wondering if some of the changes I've made are worth incorporating into the main project.
