wimpdoom - Shoot with your eyes closed
Posted: Mon Nov 24, 2014 3:47 pm
This is an eye detector and a ZDoom mod that restricts your shooting depending on the openness of your eyes in a webcam image.
The eye detector software pointed at an image of Jason Lewis.
Game screen when the left eye is closed. Image is darkened on the respective side like this, though a bit less in the release version.
I had an idea of a mod where you would play as someone who's really afraid of shooting, so you could only shoot with your both eyes closed. This implementation kinda works, but i still I consider it a bit of a failed experiment since the eye detector isn't very good.
Instructions
I would love to hear if you get this working!

Instructions
- Download wimpdoom_r1.zip (3.9 MB)
- Bind the eye signaling keys (the eye detector presses these down when an eye is closed) in ZDoom. (bind b +user1 and bind n +user2)
- Run eyedetect.exe that opens up a window where you can see your face and some visual markers showing where it thinks you eyes are. Now keys are getting pressed if you blink your eyes.
- Start ZDoom with the bundled wimp.pk3 as a PWAD.
- A webcam
- Proper lighting so the program can see your face
- A modern Windows operating system
I would love to hear if you get this working!
