This will help you out.

That's Standard difficulty.

I mean, playing with adaptative or standard and lower difficulties made that. Also, on standard is kinda uncommon to find a group of armageddon enemies on the same level at the first maps from a Wad (unless you're playing some sort of harcore slaughterfest wad o something like that, and still is kinda improbable)

but the Danger levels still effects it, basically causing the spawns to be only Armageddon enemies eventually.

what I mean is a mode where you have an equal chance of having a Abominant Spawn in place of a Cyberdemon or any other boss monster in every map
similar with other enemies etc

That's what Adaptive does. You know, it adapts.
It's the only difficulty which does so. No other difficulty changes at any point.

You could make yourself a little mini-mod that just overrides the spawners for Standard with equally weighted ones if you wanted that. Be quite simple to do.

You have to change the A_GiveInventory parts, note the extra cases for dedicated and scrounger and such, but before doing that, keep in mind that ammo has to be a bit generous as a hedge against really sour luck (early legendary Abominant anyone?), third-party maps with primarily demons (no extra ammo drops) and because the different monster tiers aren't even in terms of drops (Cyber leans more to bullet enemies, Nightmare is fairly generous and outright ridiculous for Technician/Zetashop).

Been a long while since I played RPG, but doesn't it allow changing the difficulty settings in one of the computer terminals in the base map? Also, aren't some options for certain difficulty events, (Nightmare and Armageddon specific instances,) an option in the DoomRPG options menu to disable?

Today I found out that Malek's Armor is really awesome. A complete immunity to fire may not seems like much but it does make you completely invincible against Cyberdemon's rocket and MKII's magneto bomb because explosion are all fire-based. Arch-vile and Red Arch-vile's one-hit-kill can't touch you either. And you get to spray Flamethrower and Cluster Misslile without having to be the Demolitionist. Marine's Ammochain+Malek's Armor+ Flamethrower = Untouchable.

BTW is there something wrong with my setup? Because dynamic lighting is not working. No lighting from gunshots or flamethrower or anything. Only the red glow from Legendary monster is properly working. Is this intentional or there is something wrong? I did turned on all the options in dynamic lighting but still...

Legendoom has dynamic light definitions, but everything in DRLA, from the monster attacks, gunshots, particle effects etc. doesn't have any light defs.

I use Dark Doom and Bloom and most light sources are imitating actually lighting up compared to the darker surroundings. I also use a AI mod so I can duck in low light levels to avoid being turned into swiss immediately by chaingunners, shock troopers, and minigunners. Gotta do what ya can to game the system when you switch it to fast monsters, otherwise barely manageable RLA rooms become completely unwinnable scenarios. Might as well just line yourself against a wall for the firing squad.

Original Doom brightmaps help as well, or Brightmaps Plus.

Edit:You can see an example now that I actually have a video. I'd really love to get Re-shade working properly as I downloaded a pre-packaged Dark Doom file off ModDB ages ago. It made the lights and such a lot more crisp.



If anyone watches the video or just has general advice on how to make Doom (RLA specifically,) more immersive I'd love to hear your opinions. Currently I have downloaded Usetpickup and Target spy, but I have yet to add them. Usetopick up can just be an unfair handicap when combat is too rapid, but I've read some ways to customize it to pick up certain items immediately as normal. I also have the universal weather mod that I'd like to add and I think compliments Dark Doom very well.

I absolutely love this mod! I was hooked on Clusterfuck before I found this masterpiece, and it has since overtaken CF as my favorite. Looking forward to the implementation of the Commando class, also!

Just want to say keep up the great work, and a huge thanks to folks like you that keep this awesome community going!

Hi, has anyone ever found the black backpack naturally yet? There were 5 backpacks in the game, the green one where it gives 150% capacity to all ammo, the silver one with 200% capacity to selected ammo type, the brown w white straps that gives you selected ammo in addition whenever you pick up a big ammo box and the hi-tech one where it gives you 500% to one ammo but lower other type to 10%. But I remembered there's also this black one where it had something to do with recharge rate but so far, as of 1.1.4 and after 7 megawads with 32 levels I have not seen it at all. Is there any requirement for it to spawn?
