Not bad. Maybe it's just me but shouldn't the animations be a little faster? The Double Barrel Shotgun and the Nailgun's animation look a little clunky.
Yeah, the animations are a little bit off in this. Also, the way the Thunderbolt works doesn't quite sit right with me. Not that my approximation of it was ever perfect.lizardcommando wrote:Not bad.

That's what I'm gonna do. I just found an awesome way to make sprites from the models fast and easy. Next version might not even take that long now that I learned this technique.Sergeant_Mark_IV wrote:Then these sprites could just be merged with this project, and turn this into the Ultimate Quake TC For Zdoom, that can perfectly work both on OpenGL and Software.
I fucked up actually. I disabled interpolation in the MODELDEF because I had forgotten the console command to turn model interpolation off, but then forgot to set it back to normal. I just fixed this and next version everything will feel smoother.lizardcommando wrote:Maybe it's just me but shouldn't the animations be a little faster?

I think it's quite accurate other than the use of sprites for the lightning projectile, since Quake's lightning model refused to cooperateEd the Bat wrote:the way the Thunderbolt works doesn't quite sit right with me.
The firing rate, the warmup/cooldown times, and the rhythm of the shooting noises don't remind me much of the gun in Quake. When I tried to reconstruct the Thunderbolt, I used an invisible A_RailAttack (which I know Zandronum doesn't support...) to simulate the instantaneous piercing attack, and a series of dummy lightning bolts (using the sprites from QDoom) as the visual effect (not particularly pleased with them, but it's better than the forced spiral design of a railgun).HorrorMovieGuy wrote:I think it's quite accurate other than the use of sprites for the lightning projectile, since Quake's lightning model refused to cooperateEd the Bat wrote:the way the Thunderbolt works doesn't quite sit right with me.
Also, it might have some more range, but I'm not really sure.
Comparing it now, I think you're right. The electric running sound should be looping instead of repeating with each bolt, and the cooldown should be imediate.Ed the Bat wrote:The firing rate, the warmup/cooldown times, and the rhythm of the shooting noises don't remind me much of the gun in Quake.
isn't qdoom only available for edge?Gothic wrote:Nice stuff, I actually enjoyed playing QDoom with this mod
Average wrote:I find that in quite a few wads (Dark 7 for example) that there are a LOT of zombies and it turns the game into "run from room to room avoiding the baddies" rather than fragging them. Is there any chance you could make one of the melee weapons cause gibs to them? It would add more use to the weapon and make the zombie spawning less of a nightmare.

Works fine for me.JimmyJ wrote:The gibbing of zombies hasn't been working for me, with either the axe alt or ssg blasts. Am I doing it wrong or is the feature not working right?
You have to be reeeally close, like, touching them, no homo.JimmyJ wrote:The gibbing of zombies hasn't been working for me, with either the axe alt or ssg blasts.
Not that I know of. I used Ultimate Torment and Torture for the screenshots. But UAC Ultra also felt pretty good with this mod.Uninstall wrote:Are there any good Quake-Stylish-Level-Mods out there?
That's a great idea.MetroidJunkie wrote:One way you could handle Zombie gibbing is give it a Quake 2 style of gibbing where you can shoot their corpses until they gib.
I'd suggest The Darkening Episode 1 and 2:Uninstall wrote:Are there any good Quake-Stylish-Level-Mods out there? Thx in advance for your help.
