Nobody Told Me About id - We've Moved!

If I minded I would not have linked it Please let me know of any improvements you make in the process!

The code as written presupposes the actor has a speed property similar to what you see in vanilla, and there's no A_Recoil because I originally had it set up so the monster gradually turns towards its direction of movement instead of snapping around instantly (which IIRC had other side effects so it is not currently implemented).

This is a random suggestion, but how about implementing a randomized dismemberment system? Similar to what I did for my one sub-mod I made for Dead Marine. Dead Marine: Even Deader.

I implemented a rudimentary gore system featuring two arm deaths, two leg deaths, one headshot death, and one gib death with torso parts and what-not. I also included one unique chainsaw death, usually involving the demon getting chainsawed in half with the torso being chainsawed off. I had plans to implement unique chainsaw death animations as well, so using the chainsaw would never get boring as it would be randomized chainsaw deaths.

And on that note, randomized deaths on top of this randomized dismemberment system would make the game feel like a Build Engine game in terms of gore (ala Blood), whilst also ensuring that gunplay feels more satisfying, and gameplay feels gratifying. Because IMO, the same couple of deaths gets boring after a while, and while I am aware of Glaice's RDND, it doesn't quite scratch the gory itch I feel. And no I don't want Brutal Doom or Project Brutality, the gore I have in mind is more akin to mid-90s games. Simple superficial gore that doesn't break the flow of gameplay.

Ofc I'm probably just rambling, and this probably wasn't super constructive. I just wanted to give my two cents is all. Anyway, awesome mod! I love using this with the 3DO soundtrack wad! Really makes it feel like a Build game!

Can I recommend Hellbound and Doom II Reloaded?

Will add Doom II Reloaded, as for Hellbound I'm not so sure.

For the upcoming update I've implemented a balls of steel-ton of fixes and integrated a newer version of SpriteShadows. The mod's performance should be a bit nicer.

The article on NTMAI just went live on Realm667 by yours truly. Lets give this some extra exposure!

Quick question, why did you choose to make DoomGuy blue/purple instead of green? Just curious

When I made the TITLEPIC and INTERPIC graphics, I kept to the original Duke3D palletes for those images. As it turns out, those palletes don't really have much in the way of good green shades so it ended up looking pretty terrible. I used blue instead since that looked a lot better and it's also the colour that typically gets remapped on most BUILD engine player sprites. So it makes sense in a warped kinda way.

Just a heads up, the Berserk pack isn't stopping at 2% anymore, it's stopping at 1%. XD

Amazing! Thanks for the shoutout.

Already fixed by removing yet another oversight, lol.

In the next update could you make it so that you have full control of movement in mid air like the build engine games?

[HLRaven]

You should add jump animations for the player too

[namsan]

Some suggestion:

Can you add bigger gibbed corpses for bigger monsters like Mancubus or Arachnotron?
Also, can you change the gibbed corpse of Cacodemon to more blue one? Since it bleeds blue blood.

Due to ZScript limitations (surprising, I know) there's no way to color the gibbed corpses to the monster's blood color. If I can't find a solution I'm gonna have to make a gross hack to add colored gibbed corpses. Noted

Amazing! Thanks for the shoutout.

You are welcome. I like stuff like this Good thing its not a source mod!

[Takuat]

In regards to the talk of a Mighty Foot, why not instead the Blood Punch from Eternal? Same idea but with a lil more Doom rather than imitating purely Duke. I guess the major issue would be animations in regards to 2 handed weapons
