ZDoom

This was just something that I was messing around with Frankenspriting. The helmet and backpack are modified from a sprite meant to look like the powersuit guys from XCom, but I'm not sure who did them (Uboa? GhostKillahZero?). The body and the decorate is based on the Rifle Commando from realm 667. I did a fair bit myself but ultimately stopped short of finishing it because I realised that I didn't need it.



Neither the spriting nor the DECORATE are perfect but if someone wants to tweak them, please go ahead. I deliberately set the decorate so that after one burst of fire, he walks for a little bit and then fires again (if he can still see his target). I thought it was a bit different and prevents situations like you can get with other auto-refiring enemies where they can see their target but their shots are not getting through due to some obstacle semi-blocking the path so they just stand firing impotently until you kill them.

Anyway, here it is.

Summon (or summonfriend) RedHeavy.

I think the credits should look something like this:

Decorate: Skelegant, Enjay
GLDefs: Enjay
Sounds: Doom64, Edit by enjay
Sprites: Id Software, Uboa or maybe GhostKillahZero, Enjay
Brightmaps: Enjay

I think it was actually the funktasm way back before he went nuts and got himself banned.

Looks rad! I like the grungy sci-fi look of it. I see some rogue rogue pixels and colors in that gif, but in-game it's barely (if not at all) noticeable. Cool stuff!

Make its uniform completely black, and its helmet bright green, and you have the Sardaukar from the Dune universe!

Sardaukar, for the emperor!

Nice!

Thanks, note added to fp.

Anyway, nice enemy Enjay!

Just awesome, I wonder if it will be possible in the future to make him with a stronger weapon like a minigun for example.

Could I use the sprites for a mod I'm working on?

Stuff in the Resources forum are usually free to use without needing permission. Just make sure to give credits.

Alright thanks

This is really good, Enjay! Based on what I'm seeing, you have put a LOT of effort into this resource. I have no complaints.

It's recommended for anyone!

Hello, sorry for bumping this but I really like this sprite. Do you think you could also make a version that has a Rocket Launcher? I want to use the Realm667 Rocket Launcher Zombie but the problem is that he blends really well with the other monsters. I think when you have such a dangerous enemy you should be able to see him a mile away, which is why I would like a sprite edit of this guy.

Honestly, I'm not much of a spriter; so certainly doing something like making a version that uses a shoulder-carried launcher like the one on Realm667 would probably be beyond me.

I could possibly do something by Frankenspriting the rocket launcher from a player skins pack onto it, but that would be held in much the same position as the existing rifle is. Also, real life is more than a little busy right now so it wouldn't be any time soon.

It's something I can keep in mind to try some rainy day though. If anyone fancied having a go themself, I certainly wouldn't mind. The components of the original sprite are largely not mine anyway.
