Guncaster Vindicated 3.4.6
Re: Guncaster Vindicated 3.1.2
I had to turn off the particle effects and gore effects too and it has solved my FPS problem.
I know that the gore effects aren't so essential on every wads.

I turned on the Toaster Mode and it didn't help much. I guess I have to turn off the gore effects too.
This mod is about to receive a MASSIVE tune-up on the optimization thanks to a tremendous amount of help and work from KeksDose, after the update it should be able to handle things like this much much better. (the improvement is on the order of 4 times faster performance)Valherran wrote: It's not recommended to run this MOD on a map with more than 1500 enemies otherwise it will cause frame drops. This MOD was tested under certain wad packs, but I don't think the one you mentioned was on that list. Sometimes maps with an extensive use of torches can also cause frame loss, try messing with the settings more if none of the former is the issue.
My sincerest apologies for taking so long to get this next update out, I've been working on improving the performance of gore code as well as lots of script speed improvement (particularly for the adapter)
For this particular update, we gotta wait on the official update from the big man himself, since there are several surprises in store and I'm not about to spoil them

Re: Guncaster Vindicated 3.1.2
Don't know why, but DoomLauncher doesn't like the latest version of Guncaster Vindicated. Says it's an improperly formed pk3. Also pretends that the mod isn't loading at all if you load it in using the zip instead of the pk3 file. Any ideas?

Try not using DoomLauncher and use something else like ZDL.grubfisher wrote:Don't know why, but DoomLauncher doesn't like the latest version of Guncaster Vindicated.

I was experimenting with some custom settings on a map pack, then got this VM abort crash cracking open a black chest.

Re: Guncaster Vindicated 3.2.1
updating to version 3.2.1
This was a result of the chest reaching a deferred list which I screwed up.
now... some update notes!

Heya!
It seems like the Bossfight with the Hell Smith is broken. (Vind08 - Portals of Chaos)
The 3 Maulotaurs are there, and after they die - nothing happens. The Boss itself won't spawn and the Portals won't open.
Unless I'm missing something here...

Something happened to the map somehow. I have re-scripted the entire encounter to use a more robust ACS method of handling it.Hellmasker wrote:Heya!

I was doing some testing tonight but I got interrupted by some other issues. I'll conclude testing tomorrow and post an update as soon as the testing proves effective.
Keep your eyes peeled for the update! I plan to post a fix 11/15/2019 at some time.
Re: Guncaster Vindicated 3.2.2
Anyone else have trouble getting map progress triggers to fire in map09 of gd.wad? It's a very, very small level with a really straight forward progression and yet I'm just..stuck with no way to activate more enemies or open doors. I've beaten it repeatedly with other mods but I still wouldn't rule out a map bug...
EDIT: Even after resetting by doing "map map09", I still get the same result.
EDIT: More problems on map14 and map32. Looks like the gd.wad map set might not be compatible.

you have to trigger the blue and red floor switches that open the doors to the revenants and hellknights within 15 seconds of your first shot, or the voodoo imp won't work properly.
You can switch to "Old School" monsters for better compatibility with this if you want. I'll extend my list of recommended favorite map packs as soon as I can.
