Walpurgis 0.99 (For Doom/Heretic/Hexen) [NEW RELEASE!!!]

[RafaHell]

I already use that myself, haha. BUT I won't bundle it because alot of people prefer their midi's.

Right, no, I didn't mean to insert it into Walpurgis... It was just a general recommendation to everyone!

Allright, well, if the Ettin Sarge can be tweaked a bit I (and probably many unvoiced Walp players) would be grateful, but if not, whatever. The idea of monster variations is awesome and I'm all for it, but I just wish the variations were more subtle, behaviour-wise...

But I do have to ask the following:
Would you consider making a cvar to enable/disable "monster variations"?
(mind you: I'm not talking about the base monster enhancements you've made, only about those "special variety" spawns)

[eharper256]

Oh, my bad I mishunderstood, anyway glad you got your vaccine and everything will get better now:)

Well its been a hell of a week for me, honestly. Sick from my COVID vaccine, and then part of one of my teeth shattered on Thursday and I've been to the dentist this morning for antibiotics and setup another appointment for probably having to have a root canal and a crowning.

One way to tell you're starting to get old is when you start needing to invest in dental plans.

But I do have to ask the following:

Yes, I can add that in. I'll put it on the list.

Damn what the hell of a week... teeth are really disturbing under these circumstances , hope you are recovered now from everything, what a terrible combo you suffered ..

And yes, hard to say but we are getting old... just because we played and still playing idtech1 games .
Life is a b**** anyway !!!

Well, I started some work on some of the coding needed for the Druid Upgrades finally last night, so that's finally in the pipeline.

As its been a pretty rubbish couple of weeks for me with the various health and dental problems, some progress has been a bit slow, but we'll get there.

Still got a wonderful hole in my tooth until my appointment for the crowning; but at least the pain's gone after I got the root canal to rip out the nerves, which had immediately become infected from the shattering.

So yeah, its a bit better now. Thanks for the support!

New video!


This is the first eight minutes of my playthrough of Lullaby, a new gorgeous map by Danlex released on Monday this week (with the Magister). Get it at Doomworld here https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/1 ... or-gzdoom/

I'm probably should have changed my recording settings before trying something like this as this was already 4 Gb for 8 mins of play (lol) which is why I stopped. Still gives you a nice taster of the level though.

Interestingly revealed to me an edge case of a glitch that can happen with Fulgur as well; apparently if a monster dies, is electrocuted, and falls off a high ledge all at once, it continually electrocutes as a corpse.

[Lagi]

awesome level. Library bookshelfs was a suprise. Little too dark (unless its intentional to use some light source). Looks like you Fulgur (electricity) is overused? (or was it your personal choice)

You'll see I run out of Aether Mana in the first big library fight, and the map keeps topping off my Verdant Mana (must be alot of rocket ammo that gets converted lying around), so yeah Fulgur gets used alot. I could have used one of the Kraters I guess but it would be a bit wasted.

Nice!!!

If you have the bandwidth for it and you're using OBS, you can stream directly to Youtube on a private stream, and then premiere it when the video is ready. That's what I would do if I had no plans to edit the streaming footage and you can set a quality and speed as much as your network can handle.

Oh; that's interesting, I wasn't aware OBS could do that. I should probably look for a guide on how to do that then; as my connection is fairly solid (200 megabits) and I have unlimited bandwidth.

Thanks for the tip Rachael.
