Doom Exp

[skdursh]

Just my opinion, but when you update the mod I think you should update the title of the thread as well. Makes it a lot easier for people to tell if there is any new content at a glance without having to actually read through any of the thread to find out.

Yea, since it is only a dev build update and no official release, I consider little updates like this as unimportant. Also I was being lazy. But you are right, I shall update the 1st post.

[ezedrommond]

With the latest version of GZDoom, every time I go for a glory kill, it crashes.

[Captain J]

That sounds like a serious problem, but soon will be fixed, i guess. I just noticed that too.

Also your bare fist could alert the enemies while doom blade does not, and pulse round chaingun's firing sound effect gets cut off.

[Officer D]

Glory kill issue with GZDoom 4.4.2 was fixed.
Fists don't alert monsters anymore.
I've not noticed the pulse round firing sound getting cut off tho. I'll have to test it some more.

Works fine now! Thank you!!!

[Yebudoom]

Glad to see an update, I was beginning to worry This is too good a mod to let it become forgotten.

[Officer D]

I never expected this mod to get the attention it has. PC Gamer writing an article about it, Mike Matei playing it and Icarus Lives reviewing it was pretty cool.
Not only that, the videos on YouTube, the live streams and people joining the discord, has all gone way over my expectations. Thank you for all the support. I am glad you like the mod.

This particular streamers kind words are things that are hard for me to believe.

I am by far not as talented as most of the modders in this community and I probably am a horrible coder with lots of spaghetti coding in my mod. But I was eager to try my best to create a classic Doom gameplay mod. I don't take too much credit for it, since I could of never done it without the scripts and mods provided by the community and wiki. So thank you to all those talented modders DBT, Michealis, Lewisk3, Nash, Xaser, MagSigmaX, JPALOMO, Loismustdie555, Sergeant_Mark_IV, PILLOWBLASTER, TERMINUSEST13, etc.

[Captain J]

Oh snap, Congratulations! I do really hope more famous folks like Mike Matei would play more mods of doom community.

I'm unsure if this is a known bug (likely) but I noticed that the kill counter tends to break on difficulties below Doom Slayer, counting monsters that aren't spawned in due to the difficulty. Enjoying the mod quite a lot otherwise though, keep up the good work

[Someonewhoplaysdoom]

This mod is just great, putting the balance between scaling to become op by upgrathing smooth vainilla versions from weapons and including some challenging variants of monsters. Also im glad that is planned to deactivate the monster scaling on the next patch, I feel the alternate boss-level variants of normal monsters are just than enought.
(Specially that cursed Pyrodemon from Stronghold )

It would be neat to have an intermediate option for power nodes adquisition per level. While getting 1 PN on the first levels with the normal setting is enought, the 5 PN per level from the high setting is too much for non slaugthermaps hahaha.

[Officer D]

You can individually disable certain monsters now and the power node giver has a low, normal and high setting too.

Sweet, but I don't see any new DL link Or was your post purely informational, Officer D?

The Dev download link is in the first post, right below the main one.

Yeah, I enter the Discord group recently and watched the recent changes. I definitely going to take a look after finishing Highway acceleroid booster with Going down Haha.

Also, how it works the music randomizer for Doom Exp? I want to use them with some map packs from Compendium, that doesn't feature new music. Which one is the order for run the archives.
