DEMON SPECTRE with fuzz effect in BRUTAL DOOM

Cataflexia · Post by **Cataflexia** » Sun Mar 13, 2022 10:10 pm

Hi there,
This is an old post from the 2016, with BD v20.
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=51811#

The same question in the present but whit BD v21:
I don't like the transparent effect of the Spectre Demons (but I want to maintain the brutalized version of course).
In adition, I want to apply the Fuzz effect to all dead sprites of the same actor (Spectre). Because when he dead, the body parts and gibs becomes into the normal Pinky color.

Zombie Killer help me in the past time, with the following code:

Code: Select all

actor Spectro : BullDemon replaces Spectre

   height 52
   fastSpeed 6

I see that line number 60, but I can't figure out where is the error, I see clearly that the 60 line finish with )

If some can help me, will be great.

I don't know the specifics of what the code does, but I do notice that anytime you use 9 parameters you use A_SpawnItemEx and when you have only 1 parameter you use A_SpawnItem. But on line 60 you use A_SpawnItem with 9 parameters. Maybe try changing it to A_SpawnItemEx and see if that fixes it.

Cataflexia · Post by **Cataflexia** » Mon Mar 14, 2022 7:26 pm

Yes, this work now! thanks!

The line 60 now is like this:

TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItemEx("DeadDemon1", 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, SXF_NOCHECKPOSITION|SXF_TRANSFERALPHA|SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE)

BTW, one more thing:
The dead state of Spectre still maintain the normal Pinky Demon texture.
Here's is where I got stuck that time in 2016.

I've recorded a little video that's shows the problem:
https://youtu.be/C-e6G03rovE

Sir Robin · Post by **Sir Robin** » Tue Mar 15, 2022 9:28 am

There are a lot of death states in the code. Can you say which one specifically are you seeing problems with? I see a death.shotgun there and in the video the shotgun was used for the kill.

Cataflexia · Post by **Cataflexia** » Tue Mar 15, 2022 10:16 am

I think we need all the death states for Spectre, in the video I show what's the problem.
However, I'm not an advanced scripting programmer, and I don't know where are all death states and how to manage this into the code of BD21.
Even more, I'm not a programmer in any way. Only I'm a noob trying to modify an existing code, in this case, of BD21.

Sorry for my low level on this.
But I apreciate a lot your help man, really really thanks.

Sir Robin · Post by **Sir Robin** » Tue Mar 15, 2022 1:24 pm

Yes I am new here also, I am only telling you the things I see in the code. In the video the player has killed the demon with the shotgun. So in the code I see a state called death.shotgun so I assume that's what is being called. There is a frame that calls A_JumpIfCloser(200, "Death.Strong") and the player in the video is closer than 200 so again I assume that Death.Strong is being used. That state has a frame that calls A_Jump(128, "DeathRemoveArm") and the video shows the demon with a missing arm so I assume that is what is being used. DeathRemoveArm goes directly to Death + 14 so I look at that code:

Code: Select all

      TNT1 AAAAAAAAA 0
      TNT1 A 0 A_CustomMissile("MuchBlood", 50, 0, random(0, 360), 2, random(0, 160))
      TNT1 A 0 A_CustomMissile("XDeathDemonArm", 35, 0, random(0, 360), 2, random(0, 160))
      SAAR A 8 A_CustomMissile("XDeath1", 40, 0, random(0, 360), 2, random(0, 160))
      SAAR B 8 A_Scream
      TNT1 A 0 A_NoBlocking
      TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItemEx("PoorPinkyLostHisArm", 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, SXF_NOCHECKPOSITION|SXF_TRANSFERALPHA|SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE)
      stop

It is calling 3 A_CustomMIssiles and a A_SpawnItemEx, so if the death sequence isn't showing what you want it to, one of those is probably the problem.
[wiki]A_CustomMIssile[/wiki] which is depreceiated and replaced by [wiki]A_SpawnProjectile[/wiki]
[wiki]A_SpawnItemEx[/wiki]

EDIT: I also notice in the video that the demon remains invisible for a few frames after losing the arm. That makes me think that the PoorPinkyLostHisArm is spawning with the proper renderstyle, but then changing it. Look at the code for that actor.

Very thanks! for continuing help me.

Sir Robin wrote:That makes me think that the PoorPinkyLostHisArm is spawning with the proper renderstyle, but then changing it. Look at the code for that actor.

I follow your suggestions and I understand the SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE is the parameter that transfer the render type of the called actor.
But, I can't figure why this is not transfered to the rest of the actor parts (gibs) if all the rest of the code have the same parameter, I mean SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE.

In the meantime, I've found another mod that already have a fuzz render implementation for Spectre, I refer to Project SIDE mod.
viewtopic.php?t=67699

In this mod, the blood are grey (very more close to the fuzz effect) and in adition, the gibs are fuzzed too!
Look:
https://youtu.be/tDsFastLGvk

So, looking into the code of PS, I've found this: (in the demon.txt file, the path into the .pk3 are: /deco/monsters)

Code: Select all

ACTOR smoothspectre : smoothdemon replaces Spectre
{
  BloodColor "40 40 40"
  +SHADOW

So, could this implemented into BD21? Is exactly the way of appareance that I want to the Spectre Demon.
I'm thinking that that grey blood is a particular texture (extracted from Duke Nukem 3D for sure and changed the color from red to grey).
I'm afraid that's will be complicated to inject all this stuff on BD21.

I follow your suggestions and I understand the SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE is the parameter that transfer the render type of the called actor.
But, I can't figure why this is not transfered to the rest of the actor parts (gibs) if all the rest of the code have the same parameter, I mean SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE.

It seems that the other 3 gibs are MuchBlood, XDeathDemonArm, and XDeath1. They are spawned with [wiki]A_CustomMIssile[/wiki] which does not have flags to transfer the render style. Neither does the replacement [wiki]A_SpawnProjectile[/wiki]. So if you want fuzzy-rendered gibs, you'll have to create new fuzzy gibs to replace those with.

You could, it seems to be implemented quite differently. You'd have to look into those ACS scripts and see what they're doing.

For that I can understand, the problem is because there is many states that don't have the flag to transfer the render style (i mean SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE).
So, I've added the SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE flag to all dead states. It work in half, because now the Spectre maintain the fuzz render when he's dead. But only when the body is not dismembered.

At least is a aproach to the what I am searching.

But, if I:
-Dismember the Spectre body, the gibs still are visible (no fuzz effect)
-Reshoot an already entire dead spectre body, this becomes visible when I crush the flesh with a shotgun or similar
-Smash with a rocket or similar to a spectre, the bigs still are visible.

So, if I have to create new fuzzy gibs to replace the existing ones, I'm in trouble, because I don't know how to create new states (gibs).
I never have come this far with coding, now I don't know what more I can do with all this

Jajajajaja!!

Again, your help was incredible men, jaja, I didn't know that I could do this kind of things! xDD

Here's my horrible failed trying to make the fuzz effect work on gibs:

So, I've added the SXF_TRANSFERRENDERSTYLE flag to all dead states. It work in half, because now the Spectre maintain the fuzz render when he's dead. But only when the body is not dismembered.

The SXF flags should work in the [wiki]A_SpawnItemEx[/wiki] calls, but won't work in any [wiki]A_CustomMissile[/wiki] or [wiki]A_SpawnProjectile[/wiki] calls, because those functions use the CMF flagset, which does not have a flag for transferring the render style. That's why I suggested creating separte fuzzy gibs and using those instead.

Cataflexia wrote:So, if I have to create new fuzzy gibs to replace the existing ones, I'm in trouble, because I don't know how to create new states (gibs).
I never have come this far with coding, now I don't know what more I can do with all this

You don't want to create new states, you want to create completely new actors for fuzzy gibs and use those instead.
You have to look at the code to see what it's doing, but I'd guess you could try something like this:

Code: Select all

actor XDeathDemonArmFuzz : XDeathDemonArm
{
	default
	{
		renderStyle "OptFuzzy"
	}
}

And then replace "XDeathDemonArm" in the code with "XDeathDemonArmFuzz "

Your first video shows demon killed closely by shotgun and losing an arm. This video shows many different death paths. When I'm working on something, I pick one path through the code and work on that. Once it works I can use what I learned to work on other paths. I'd recommend that for you, it will seem less overwhelming that way. Draw yourself a flowchart of all the paths through the death states, and then pick one and work on that. Once it works the way you want, you'll know how to change the code on the other paths.
