High Noon Drifter v1.2 - Between God, the Devil, and a .500

The only issue I found with the mod is, concerining Colourful Hell, is that the enemies that drop the boomerang don't really count the weapon as equipped, and yet equipping the actual weapon proper in the spawn spot does count.

The best/worst part of Western-styled weapons mods is I find myself going for the revolver a lot, even if I need something heavier.

Definitely having a blast with this.

Man, I'm having a blast with this. One request though - would it be possible to allow equipping just one grease gun after picking up the second one?

Well, i am going to download gzdoom 2.5, but when i've tried this with 3.0.0, it crashes every time i use the whip. Obviously some issue on my side, but i think it's worth noting.

EDIT: It's working like a charm on 3.2. Thanks a lot Term. Please, if you would like to use my Flakes Doom compatibility patches for Heretic, Hacx 2.0, Strife, and a lot more of games, feel very welcome.

I love the SSG replacement. It is so goooood.

One thing I would like to suggest is that a different pickup line be used when getting a medical bag while at critical health ("Picked up a well-appreciated medical bag") but that's just me being nitpicky

Your lifegem is sliding on its rope a bit, if you change your chainsize from 16 to 7 (width of the tile minus 1), that'll keep it right in place. Also, a bit of interpolation helps wiggle (I suggest interpolate(8)).

That's good to hear, I was wondering what I was doing wrong. Fixed, thank you!

Montaraz reload can't be canceled out as easily as other weapons - whether that's by design; could be based off the clearing power, but after the first double-barrel reload starts you're "locked in" and can't switch out until the animation completes (where as with most other weapons the animation is short enough to flow through or can be canceled out - this can be seen well with the Sierras)

Hmm, that's interesting. It's definitely intended by design, given how much of an earthshaker that thing is, but it certainly stands out compared to the other weapons. I think one thing I might end up doing is make reloading cancellable via whip, with the downside of having to start the reload all over again.

but theres still a few lil naggling bits that could be attributed to more personal tastes, but honestly push it back from reaching the limelight

Such as? Don't be shy, I don't bite.

I'm sorry, I don't think I understand. Can you elaborate, please?

This has been a pretty common request, I'll take a look into it! Not sure whether to make it a separate weapon or just have the ability to swap between while in one single weapon, but I'll give it a shot nonetheless.

That's extremely generous of you! Thank you very much, I may very well take you up on that.

[Dr_Cosmobyte]

Oh yeah, almost forgot!

Is it very hard, size bloating to make grenades shootable? Just a nitpick, nothing really serious.
Edit: Just asked this because i wanted to plant traps on my spiders pack hahahahah.

And, how do i transform on... on... you know, that demon.

Use the inventory item.

In Colourful Hell, the version of the boomerang dropped from the enemies leaves you with just the "catching position" of the weapon as if you threw it. (It still works fine when you pick up the weapon normally, such as in a secret of Map06 of Epic 2)

[Wivicer]

That whip is very satisfying. Much more so than that in a certain other mod. *cough*

[NovaRain]

Not sure if it's intended or not, but if I enable "reload on dry click" and set "gun reloading" to "only for revolver", the revolver doesn't get automatically reloaded when empty.

[dljosef]

Yeah, the whip's really good for stunlocking most enemies...though I barely see an improvement in damage when you grab the berserk powerup equivalent.

[Deii]

Hm, not sure why exactly this is happening but whenever I pick up a mask of shadows my whole screen goes black. Already updated to the latest devbuild and it still happens. Haven't quite had the chance to figure out if it's some rendering option I have on my end.

[Captain J]

That's weird. In GZDOOM g3.1.0, it just works right.

You can whip pinky 4 times to kill it. But when you grabbed Spirit bottle, obviously the damage increases and can kill pinky in 2 whippings. Plus it gives you Regeneration too.

That sounds cool, but i'm not sure it's gonna be easy to shoot it while it's thrown. It's much faster than a vigorous adult horse!

Oh, nevermind. I was a little too busy really kicking ass in my Epic 2 run with Colourful Hell that I hardly notice. Against the really beefy enemies, that is.

And while we're on the subject of grenades, it's REALLY surprising how useful they are if you hurl them into tight spaces from safe spots to royally wreck groups of enemies (or bigger enemies) with the fragments. By the way, with the double-barreled's reload fire, do the shell casing fragments do anything, or are they just decoration?
