Are you like me, a guy who loves not only Doom, but also Heretic and Hexen? Have you ever wanted SO BAD to play your favorite gameplay mods with these Raven games, but there isn't a patch for them avaiable? Well... look no further! I did something based on my Heretic/Hexen patches for my mods, and came up with the idea of expanding them to a wider area.
Keep in mind a few things: - This is not the first time somebody does that! There are other mini mods that do the same, and probably better than me!
- Mods with Custom Color palettes, paletized sprites or custom Enemies might not work 100% or not work at all; I can't help too much if that's the case.
- Sometimes mods which don't replace HUDs might not display ammo values or anything. To help that, i've provided a generic HUD separated from the patch, so, load it together and game on!
WHICH MODS WORK WITH THIS, THEN?
Good you asked! We have OVER 50 MODS working with it! Here's a quick list:
Spoiler:
Ballistics (small palette issues) Doosk Eriguns Hellrider Hell Caliber Meatgrinder (needs a HUD) Final Doomer (needs a HUD) Aliens by Sink (0.99f) - (no custom enemies) Netronian Chaos Space Hunter Combined Arms Highway to Hell Naku Naru Contra Doom (no custom enemies) CT-TRI Dakka GMOTA (with a few errors, but still can run!)

For the most part, it does seem to work just fine, but I noticed a few issues through a quick playthrough:
1) The Undead Warrior is replaced by an Archer enemy (which is fine), but when you kill it, it gets stuck in its dying animation rather than lying on the ground (which is not so fine).
2) The Torch item does not properly spawn; instead, it is replaced by a diamond icon with an exclamation mark.
3) I get error messages such as the following: "Unknown item class CBADN1 to drop from random spawner" "Unknown item class DBWPSP1 to drop from random spawner"
i gotta say. this is pretty cool. but 1 issue i discovered was that, the flecette things. don't worklike the should. like you can pick'em up. but not use'em

i did, and it didn't work. and buttons are set & everything. i tried other inventory things, and they worked. even from the Typhoon mod. but the flecette's don't work at all
About the flechettes, normally in Hexen, they are encompassed by a super class (ArtiPoisonBagGiver) which lets the player class decide via MissileType property which one to actually give on pickup. It is for this reason that there's a "useflechette" command in addition to regular quick use hotkeys.
If you want to spawn each of them independent of playerclass, I suggest a simple RandomSpawner.
The types are as follows:
ArtiPoisonBag1 = Cleric's Poisoncloud ArtiPoisonBag2 = Mage's Timebomb (like the ones in Heretic) ArtiPoisonBag3 = Fighter's Grenade

Which mod you're playing this with? Because i can throw them with some mods.

well there was quite a few, but one mod was what i mentioned, was the Typhon mod. and i know it's not the inventory issue, cause i can be able to use the other thing she has in her bag of stuff just fine. but the flechette's can't be used
