Maybe just because there are not enough of powerful monsters I guess or it may changes after later levels(in MAP15 now, just no time to play it yet ), or maybe I should try some harder WADs...

But you know, if someone hates this 6 weapons limitation, just open console and input "give all" and have fun with all weapons on hand.

If you're hankering for a tougher challenge for now I've been having great results pairing this with Colourful Hell, it should give you plenty more to shoot at.

Captain J wrote:Eey you said it right. Although you only can carry 6 weapons, but they have their own advantages and enough damage to cover. Also, ammo droppings are pretty hefty in each maps.

Well, the enemies i'm creating right now would be very stronger than vanilla ones.

Yes, but not in the Icon of Sin battle, screw that piece of shit, since only rocket launcher works better, like vanilla DooM.
(Keep murders my poor Eilidh when try to using slot 8 weapon's alt-fire to kill those summoned monsters...)

I hope the new enemies won't suffer ammo problem like vanilla monsters, and maybe replaces the shitty IoS battle with something else...

Well, if I can load Colourful Hell with NC mod then I would try.

Have to say, Fierce Caliber's a big heavy-metallic bitch when she comes to finale.

Huh. Never knew Colorful Doom is compatible with my mod too. And i also hope it can make some challenge for the gameplay, too.

You would surprise about how well your mod's compatibility.
At least not some heavy mod like AEoD, that ass seems not working at all...

For some reasons I decided load NC after...



Now I have "Super Sonic Netronian Chaos", and she's Sgt. Eilidh "DamaGe" Catriona. lol

I haven't see big problems yet after play a while in SIZ Act 1, but she's not in cut-scene and due to I load with zk-chase.pk3(The Zombie Killer's camera mod), cut-scenes just screwed up but I don't care that and other in-compatible problems, at least I can play it.

I hope nobody want to be so ass to request a patch or something from you.

You know what? I used to work on the compability patch for SSD, that replaces weapons into other mod's weapons many years ago... But then i realized myself it's WAY too confusing and time-wasting to make it functional. And i abandoned my dream and not even touching it anymore.

After seeing the screenshot, it seems it's running nicely with NC. But i bet some weapons didn't spawned correctly; Pistol, Railgun, Rocket ammo and Rocket Launcher is custom. I tried to replace them with my knowledge, but failed.

SSD weapons still spawned and can be used, just NC's new HUD can't handle their ammo display.(I load Sonic.WAD[dated 2017/10/05 from /idgames] first then NC wads, for proper weapon switching or you can't switch to some NC weapons)

I'm on STZ Act 1(Map05) now, I found the BOSS on SFZ Act 2(Map04) acting weird...its attack just spawn 5 or 6 of SS Nazis......WHAT?! O_o

Wawawawait. Sonic Doom have been recently updated? How? I didn't even heard the news about it! And it's again, recently updated! So is this true? Does weapons including Railgun and Pistol replaced into NC ones correctly?

If so, i might give it an another chance!

This is re-post, sorry I didn't get what's you ask so I misunderstood...

The textfile said "Updated Sep 2017 with fixes for the official GZDoom 3.1 version." but the Sonic.WAD dated 2017/10/05 just as I said, so I think it did updated.

But sadly, only SSD weapons drops by enemies still change to NC ones(even the SSD plasma gun from Special Stage 1, if I didn't got the weapon due already 6 weapons/ammo full then it counts fail to got the bonus...) So I guess if you want made a patch for running NC with SSD, you may needed take care about those pickup actors with NoGravity like Rocket1(a rocket)/Rocket5(box) and "No-Gravity Weapons and Ammo" in SSD's DECORATE definition, as I seems those weapons/items are for SSD only and may won't be replaced by NC.
(I see rocket and rocket boxes laying around on STZ Act 1[Map05] so I guess it didn't changed)

I also found annoying about the GallantrySerum(Berserk replacer), after get it, the screen tint just goes so BLUE...and it even make me see shit hardly at all...also after complete a level, replaced keycards still exist due name changed(SSD's script just don't know and do nothing), it's fine for me as I can do manual remove them by using conosle("printinv" and "take")...

EDIT: Spoiler about the RL and rocket boxes laying around in STZ Act 1...

I like play SSD with NC as it's fun and enough hard, just some compatibility problems(above and some bosses acting weird).

Well, about those problems... It cannot be helped, i guess. Also i still have to work on the enemy sprites that we're really waiting for. But still, it's gonna be a good experience and i say, good luck!

Right, NC enemies should be take care first then other things so I'm fine.

I just found the showstopper at STZ Act 2(Map06, if I don't cheat), the purple key just fall into the inescapable toxic pool, since it should be hang on ceiling and using spring to get, well, at least I can continue with cheats.

Hope you having fun while playing SSD, lad! I recently beaten the mod with AtM. And yeah, i finally managed to replace the Bazooka, Railgun and the others. Although i had to put +NOGRAVITY for some weapons and ammo to make them hanged in chain tight.

How did i replaced 'em all? Here's how!;

Oh, also you should add +NOGRAVITY for some items and weapons from the weapon mod, too.

And i'm sorry if it's getting off-topic. But just wanted to tell PlayerLin that running SSD with other weapon mods are possible!... Well, if you know how to edit.

Congrats, Captain J!

Oh yeah! I was about to post it, but you did it! I'm so thankful for his awesome and detailed review. And it makes me feel great to work on the enemy sprites and such, and he'll be surprised once again when i'm done with them-

I'm not sure it's off-topic, as it still about your NC mod, isn't it.
(Well, I'm sure it's possible if edit the code, but you know, even without those non-replaced items, ammo still so plenty.)

Sadly, I encountered the second and totally showstopper at SWZ Act 1(Map19), nears the end of level(player needed go into the Lava and lost anything, weapons, items, whatever tokens from NC too)...after that, the "just drop it(weapon)" function just lost and never be able pick up weapons after 6 weapons limitation reached when I'm in SWZ Act 2(Map20)...the game just unplayable now, I still try to finger out how to get that function back...

Also, the Cyro grenade bouncer do not give player any score when killed enemies with it, for unknown reason...

EDIT:

Code: Select all • Expand view

Give "Action_DropWeapon"


Fixed that showstopper problem by added back the "function" and "token" items back via console, and it seems working fine again. Hmm, hope I can complete SSD today, and then maybe try to mess around with its code for more compatibility with NC.

EDIT 2 : DO NOT use Give "WeightToken", or lost a slot you can use(5 weapons and the game said you're full), just Give "Action_DropWeapon" should be enough, I'm sorry I did screw up this.

Heh. I guess you're right.

That's indeed sad. Jumping onto lava only takes your weapons away, not with weapon tokens. And i somehow want to make the compatibility patch for SSD that works fine with other weapon mods. But once again, i'm pretty busy with the enemy sprites. And Sky City Zone Act 2 Boss is kind of a showstopper, too.

Hmm. At least it worked. And about their ice-death, i guess giving you score after freezing them was never meant to be implemented.
