Here actual patch

Really awesome! Has that Carrion feel to it.... Would it be possible to borrow the Carrion sprites to take that monster to the next level chomping on bodies left in the map?

Cool, glad to hear there's an update on the way! I like where this mod is going, feels like it mostly just needs polish and a replacement of the monsters/weapons that are left to do.

So I've been playing this a bit, and I love the ideas behind it. I really do. I want to love this mod.

But it just does all these really dumb frustrating things that--and I want to be clear here--I don't blame you for doing. These are things that doom mods just kinda do sometimes, because they're all habits that developed out of mods where they aren't bad habits. But they're not things that are conducive to a survival horror mod, and they REALLY aren't conducive to a mod where the player's already at a disadvantage due to being slower and not being able to get back up.

I write this, not because I hate this mod, but because I love it. I want to see it become better; I want to see it grow into something amazing.

To that end, here's the giant fucking rant.

Hell, that feedback is useful for a LOT of modders, even me.

I approve and agree with breez, and i would add that weapons should not lock you in place when reloading, but drastically reduce your speed.

I have a code for the medkit to avoid wasting the extra units if you want.

I wonder, would it be possible to have an item you can use to burn enemies and finish them? Something like a match or flare ala Evil Within where it's risky because you have to get really close, but you can stockpile them and they're useful to clean up after a fight. So you drop/throw it on the corpse and it does damage to it, causing it to burn up. It'd probably still deal some damage to enemies as well, but throwing a lit flare at something *is* gonna burn it, so as long as they're not one hitting everything I think it'd work.

Spoiler:
Hello! Thanks for the suggestions, ill try to answer them the best

- The ammo spawners i made them to spawn more common type of ammo ex: Shells will spawn more frequently than 40mm grenades, but i think i could spawn ammo for the respective monsters spawners like Shotgun Guy spawned enemies could drop Shells or something like that

- Ill try to change the Hunter transparency, maybe making him invicible when he gets hurt and going to a "Frightened" mode when he is in that mode and then turn to normal

-The dogs for now are non present in the build i have, i removed them with the scuttler for now, as i am trying to keep all of the enemies melee only.

-The AWP is replaced with the PSG semi auto rifle, i will try to reduce the zooming in that too

-The Blowtorch is removed for now

-I do not know how to "lock" using the health items while full health, maybe using the Strife code for health?


And for the updates here are some of the features:

-Based on the RE aiming system, weapons need to be drawn to be used (Firing and Reloading), you cannot move while the weapon is drawn

-Changed the sprites of the Carcass and the Bloodsucker

-Monsters will not always spawn, so encountering them will be less freuquent

-Reduced Health and Speed on most enemies

-Buffed the Flamethrower and now the GL will deal fire damage

-Removed the M202 and the Blowtorch

Have you thought about adding more fire-based weaponry? Like flare guns and molotov cocktails?
