Projects that alter game functions but do not include new maps belong here.

Got a cool project idea but nothing else? Put it in the project ideas thread instead!

Like say i wanted to load that wad/map that randomly generates its self?

cause it seems that your mod at the moment uses the vanillia Doom maps.
But if it was randomly generated that would be cool :D
The only things this mod alters are the weapons, and the placements for certain items, it contains no levels (Except for the super secret testland.) It was designed to be compatible with almost any mapset you wish to play on, so the only maps I'd worry about would be ones that include their own weapons, or have heavy scripting.

Hmm, I might just get Oblige to generate some new levels for myself, see if I get any fun gems out of it.

Hey there's an idea! Would it be possible to add some sort of custom Oblige/Obhack to generate random maps. You could introduce levelling up other character traits and permadeath with obits. That would be super cool. :)

Completely impossible in ZDoom, it'd have to be something the player enforces on themselves.

You might have to check your controls, you need to bind a key to the Zoom function.

The only thing here I can think of would be to have some sort of .bat file that runs Oblige, generates a new mapset, then runs ZDoom with DoomRL Arsenal and that mapset loaded. It would be far too unwieldy, might as well run Oblige manually.

I don't even know what an obit is... :?

So how would one do such a thing? (Use other maps?)
Because i frankly have no idea how?

I know it must be some console command but i cant think what?
:D
Never-mind I Figured out how.

Awesome!

I playing with slige levels (Random Levels)

... Why is it in the zoom function and not the drop weapon function? O.o

To confirm, the mag capacity on doom rl is 1, and it takes quite a while to reload. and, as you said, it needs a nerf :P

Because the Drop Weapon function drops weapons and nothing else, therefore completely and utterly breaking the mod. All Zoom does is call a state, so I can do anything with that.

Yeah, it's still a really stupid key to put it on though... :lol:

The Rocket Launcher may fire slower, but it does ridiculous damage now. I actually find it better now, well, except for when I blow myself up because the radius damage is horror.

EDIT: Updated main post with a Latest News section, where I can talk about the newest developments with the mod.

Found a bug while building a marine to have all the bullets ever by carrying the biggest bullet firing weapons I could get my hands on, all of them loaded up to capacity with bulk mods. Anyways, I had assembled a gatling gun and when I picked up a fresh chaingun it still had the extra bullets in the magazine from before I assembled the gatling gun. It fired normally, and it wouldn't let me reload until I was below its normal maximum of 40. Not a huge deal but I figured I should mention it regardless. Having a blast with this mod so far, keep up the good work.

Hillarious glitch found:

Try the assault minigun. WTF?
EDIT: What does the assault mod do exactly?

It makes a weapon semi-automatic and a lot more accurate. It's kinda worthless to the Marine class seeing as how he performs best with full-automatic weapons but for other classes, particularly the Scout, it might be handy to keep an Assault Laser Rifle on hand.

Oh, and another bug. The muzzle flare is messed up on the High Power Pistol, using the flare from the vanilla Doom pistol as opposed to what it probably should be using. Most likely just an error in sprite naming.

Unfortunately not a bug, individual guns aren't tracked at all, just the type of gun, so if you fire a weapon, discard it, then find another of that weapon, the magazine will be exactly the same as when you fired it before. If it weren't for the fact that mods are stripped from weapons when you dropped them, if you picked up another gun it would also have the same mods on it. And yes, you can't reload a weapon that had it's magazine bulked up until it drops to it's current maximum magazine size. I'm glad you're enjoying the mod, I hope to deploy more good work for you to play with in Beta 2 soon.

Exactly, makes the weapon semi-auto and reduces shot spread by half for hitscan weaponry, and reduces spread on projectiles to nothing. Mostly because they are super accurate anyway. Also increases damage by 1.
Yeah, the Assault Minigun is super weird, took me ages to get it working properly. Think of it as a snipey rifle of some sort, with a clip of ungodly proportions. XD

Thanks a bundle for pointing that stupid mistake out, fixed for Beta 2. I changed the pistol sprites a short while before Beta release, and obviously I did not fix the High Power version of it. How clever of me.
