ZDoom

is there any addon for this mod that makes all the new weapon classes behave just like the vanilla guns as far as damage, spread, shot timing??.. I love the effects and feel of this mod... but I know alot of people would agree it would be a nice option to have. "Vanilla weapon stats" toggle or something. Thanks for any help guys. Maybe there is a easy way to edit the weapon files in SLADE if nothing else.

it's some sort of stock sample i believe. you're probably thinking of either Goldeneye or Perfect Dark, but it also shows up in Dark Forces 2 for example.

I believe I also heard that sound in the main menu of Action Half-Life, Unreal when reloading the automag in any version past 200 and the obscure game Airfix Dogfighter.

Yep. It's a stock soundy thing that I altered the timing of to mimic the sound you're thinking of, it's the weapon pickup sound from Shadows of the Empire.

That's impossible, the guns are fundamentally different from the vanilla guns. There is a menu option to set the Doom 2 weapons to vanilla stats, but that's all.

This is, and has been for a while, my favorite weapons mod. Although I feel like I should mention(and I seriously apologize if it has been mentioned before, as a quick skim through the last 10 pages showed me that no one seems to have pointed this out yet), but as someone who doesn't use the Doom 2 weapons set all that often, and has just decided to use it again today, I noticed that it doesn't fix the infamous stray pixel on the super shotgun, which causes me a great deal of mental anguish.


I know it's an almost non-issue, but... ;-;

I have now immediately DESTROYED the crime pixel, the next update of both Final Doomer and LegenDoom will no longer have its foul presence.

Nooo, without the pixel it's an imposter SSG. Please make an option so we can enable or disable it. Let's say an "Emulate vanilla SSG's stray brown pixel" toggle?

/s

Haaah i truly love the Justice you have bestowed upon that Nefariously Drastic Pixel!

#JusticeForBrownPixel

Wait, is that a mistake? I thought that was just Doomguy's thumb or something.

Without the /s it could almost be an example of Poe's law.

It is a stray brown pixel which creeped in by mistake in the original art. It is corrected in sprite fixing projects, smooth animation projects etc...

But if you see a thumb in it then more power to ya!

Huh, didn't think there was anything more to add to justify an update to this.

What a weird post to come here and make.

Final Doomer has easily become my favorite gameplay-mod for Doom, I really love its relative simplicity compared to other mods.
I had some trouble using BTSX-guy and others, but after playing them some more I understood them better and do now enjoy all of them.
My only complains right now are are the slow projectile speed of JCP neutron shotgun, which enemies just sidestep too often.
The other thing is how often BTSX Nanocore can be used. I have seen in previous replies that you are adamant about changing the only once per level use so that you have to carefully think when to use it, but I would argue that a charge meter that is carried over into other levels would be better.
As it currently is the Nanocore makes BTSX-guy overpowered in mapsets in lots of short, small levels, where you don't really have have to be concerned if you immediatly use it. In long, giant maps BTSX-guy is certainly still strong, but it's a shame when you can only use his most interesting gimmick for a relative short time there, for no other reason than the map being a huge structure instead of many smaller ones.
Removing the "once per level" and replacing it with a meter of some sort, would force the player to think more critically about when to use it, which is closer to your intention, I feel.
Anyway I really love this project, and I'm looking foward to future releases!
