ZDoom

Graveyard is a minimod for GZDoom that places gravestones where you die.
Gravestones are carried over play sessions, so:

1. You die.
2. You start a new game, or load the savegame.
3. You see a gravestone where you died.

Features

This mod is a part of m8f's toolbox.

This mod reminded me Terraria, and it's quite interesting.
Anyways, now the game can remind that I'm really suck at doom.

Of course, there was a bug that was discovered right after the release. So, 4 of you who downloaded the mod, please download version 0.2.

Changelog:

- fixed a bug when new gravestones overwrite old ones after clearing gravestones on a map.

This is some amazing zdoom magic. Now i can both embrace and be embarrassed about my deaths!

But is there will be last words on each gravestone? That would be really funny.

Damn, didn't know something like this was possible. What if the the tombstones said things like "squashed by a mancubus" instead? Having them all just be the same phrase with a different enemy is pretty boring

Suggestions:

Is there a way to make your graves random? (Hexen and blood have excellent sprites of graves)

Also, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night has an enemy called Tombstone, with a perfect centered sprite facing the player.

=)

Random graves would be great. The problem is ripped sprites: I don't want to add more unlicensed content. I'll be glad to replace the sprite used in this mod with something that allows reuse explicitly.

Aaaaand all done! Is this will do?

Nice one J! When i saw this in Discord i figured it would be a contribution to this mod.

Nice stones! Cannot take the cross (don't want to imply Christianity). Also had to fill gaps on the bottom, otherwise it looks weird on flat surface. Also added mirrored variant. Do you approve, Captain?

Ah, glad you like it!

And alrighty. I'll see if i can add more gravestone sprites for you.

EDIT: Aaaand already finished! Hope you like it.

Captain J, you are doing good. If there were gravestones with UAC logo it would be funny.

Doom 2016 death marks also would be cool.

v0.3 is up!

Changelog:

• added timestamp to grave description;
• added randomized gravestone sprites (by Captain J);
• fixed gravestones not loading sometimes.

Accessing proper obituaries happened to be surprisingly difficult. Probably not.

Not sure where to get the sprites legally. Also, cannot access real date-time.

Bugfix update: v0.3.1. Fixed gravestones not loading sometimes more. Please redownload.
