Diaz v3 - Random Public Beta #3.5! [p.13]

[wildweasel]

The thing is, I disabled heretic/strife support for the moment because I'm rearranging and renaming a lot of the actors, and it got to be a humongous pain to make a change and run the game only to find that ZDoom wouldn't start because my Heretic/Strife spawner definitions were still pointing toward the old names. Since a lot of the point of Version 3 of Diaz is to clean it up internally as well as externally, that's why I'm doing this for the moment.

Heretic/Strife supports will be re-enabled as soon as the Doom stuff is finalized, but feel free to re-enable it yourself in any of my builds and fool around with it. When I get to that portion, there'll be some balance and spawner changes as well, like making the crossbow spawn random weapons instead of always being the shotgun. I hate how many Heretic maps rely on only the crossbow. =P

Somehow, I never found it as egregious as DooM's Shotgun/Shell placements. I usually find enough ammo to favor any weapon (besides the Phoenix Rod, of course), as long as I'm not throwing magic at boss creatures. (Maulotaurs mainly. UGH.)

I've never relied on only the crossbow.

I guess I just prefer Heretic's other weapons so much that I always end up with nothing but crossbow ammo, all the time, and it pisses me off. =P

[Ethril]

Well at least there isn't a Super Crossbow that uses twice the ammo and does triple the damage.
No, the Tome of Power doesn't count.

8: Not much of an issue, but while the new mauser rifle sound is nice, it seems to abruptly stop rather than add a fade off at the end, which feels a bit odd.

I can't seem to get it right...I should probably just find another sound.

Is this problem still bothering you? Because I could help fixing it if you could send it to me somehow.

I have 8 years of audio editing experience, so I hope I can do something about it

EDIT: looking at the dates of the last posts, this might be an irrelevant question

You sir, Have killed my excitement. Let that guilt eat away at you

[wildweasel]

I'd like to clarify that it has been pretty much a profound lack of interest that keeps me from working on this mod. I do have some resources yet to be added to the mod - new voice for the Test Subject, new shotgun, among other things - but pretty much zero desire to add them.

[-Ghost-]

That's a shame, I always thought these mods were pretty cool. What was the new shotgun supposed to be? I never really liked the current wooden one. I liked the Hunter shotgun from one of your Diaz mods, it just felt...right... to shoot it, good blend of a satisfying sound, look and power.

And here I was hoping that was an April Fool's post

Catching your breath is never a bad thing. It feels all the fresher when you finally do get back to work.

Hell, that's pretty much the story of Hexercise. A couple months away from editing and I ended up spending the better part of two entire weeks hunched over SLADE3. And I've yet to get tired of it!

i got a question for both WildWeasel & Woolie Wool could u update the human enemies patch with version of diaz

[wildweasel]

I am not involved with the human enemies patch.

[armymen12002003]

I am not involved with the human enemies patch.

the reason i ask cause i got some pretty good line lines for the U.A.C. executives

[Tapwave]

I don't think it really matters to WW now since, as he said, he doesn't really wants to work on DIaz anymore.
Now, can you stop bumping the thread, please?
