I've already fixed it my end as it was just a simple find and replace. I'm still working on a potential couple of cards before a new release.

Would it be possible to get an actor list (for spawning specific card actors?)
I've been messing with TwitchyDoom and would like to let chat spawn the eggs (if it's even possible without the card?)
but there may be other actors that could be fun to let people spawn (totems etc)

Something like this? It's not filtered so a bunch of those won't be useful, but hopefully that gives you a starting point.

perfect, im gonna go experiment with spawning random stuff to see what works without the card active or not.

--EDIT--
ok. so a bunch of the stuff can be spawned etc. but a lot of it must be cancelled/populated by scripts.

some examples
Earthquake never ends and doesn't affect enemies.
MysteryEggs are empty.
Totems are all green for some reason, but otherwise work as expected (could be good)
Curses seem to work too, though i could only give it to myself.
Spawning a nuke death works, but it's invisible.

At lot of the logic for these actors is handled with the card itself. For example the earthquake card pools all the items/monsters that can be shoved around at the start of the level and is stored in the card, so that it doesn't need to execute this *potentially * performance dropping step mid game. Others are for simplicity reasons, such as the totems that have a small setup function in the card so it is simpler to define new totem cards.

this all makes perfect sense, i was just looking for things to integrate into your TwitchyDoom mod.
curses seem like the best bet (assuming they work correctly without the card when given to a monster via TwitchyDoom)

Trying to change the OvergowthBushSmall actor to also apply the transparency effect, but it doesn't want to play for some reason. Likewise, changing the default alpha level for the big bushes doesn't seem to apply either. Tried introducing it at both the Spawn and Display levels, but it never takes.

Found out about the Specialists card and I'm in love.

Question: For making variant Specialists, is there a way to make it pick a specific monster, or from a monster group or species for the different roles? For example, making it so it always picks a hell noble for the tank or a doom 2 monster for the prickly.

I know these cards can pick a specific monster like Keyguard always being an archvile, but I don't know how or if the individual Specialists can have their species selected or narrowed down.

4.4 is here! Once again a slower release as I just kept coming up with card ideas. Almost at 200 cards now.
  • Added 1 new Wild Card.
  • Added 19 new cards.
  • Added "useallenchantments" in the CCARDS lump. This allows random enchantments to be pulled from the global card pool, not just those in the current deck.
  • Fixed compatability with Gun Bonsai (and other mods using the menu tooltips library).
  • Fixed compatability with older GZDoom versions.
  • Fixed card art leaking over the card descriptions when viewing the list of active cards.
  • Fixed a crash with multiplayer regarding the large CVAR usage.
  • Fixed a crash with Reverse Knocback.
  • Fixed a bug that was allowing duplicated entries in the Card Compendium.
  • Fixed some issues with certain card images.
  • Fixed tornados ending up frozen after existing for a while.
  • Fixed Angry Bones spawning via other cards such as 16th Sin.
  • Fixed Dormant monsters awakening prematurely if the map had set them to dormant already.
  • Fixed Swimming Lessons not working with certain mods.
  • Fixed fake items not disppearing correctly under certain conditions.
  • Fixed Earthquake causing monsters that were inactive to attack immediately after first seeing a player.
  • Fixed Armageddon only being available if playing on maps with massive amounts of monsters.
  • Cards that reference other Doom mods now their display their reference in the Card Compendium.
  • Haunting and Distress Call enchantments now only have a chance to trigger if given out globally via a card effect (such as Keys of Power).
  • Slimming Enchantment minimum hitbox radius increased.
  • Increased Critter damage slightly.
  • Web Balls are thrown less frequently by monsters that are affected by the Arachnid Mutation card.
  • Parasitic Card no longer reveals card effects during Master Mode.
  • Optimized Treachery to prevent slowdowns on maps containing lots of monsters.
  • Treachery now allows monsters to steal enchantments from any others they kill.
  • Angry Bones now has a slightly longer Pain state.
  • D'Sparil and Korax can no longer be chosen for card generation due to their map breaking effects.
  • Petrified Monster statues can no longer be destroyed or pushed immediately after appearing.
  • Decreased the rate Spawn Pods spawn monsters.
Download

Some actors have had their dependency on the card info being available removed too, such as Earthquake and Eggs. This means they can be summoned into the game and will immediately function.

The Haunting and Distress Call enchantments usually only have a chance to trigger when they are applied to monsters via a card. However they always trigger when the enchantment is given out randomly via a card that can give out random enchantments. However some cards give a random enchantment to ALL monsters in the level (such as Keys of Power). This means every monster in the level would 100% spawn a ghost with the Haunt enchantment, or even worse summon a nearby monster with the Distress enchantment. The latter pretty much broke maps.

So now cards like Keys of Power will respect the cards original chance to trigger enchantments when they dish out enchantments to every monster in the map. Hope that makes sense :P

OK yeah got it.
that explains why i could vacuum most of the map into 1 room after getting distress call from a key sometimes

is there a quick way to reset the compendium by the way? mine still says 901/192

also, is TwitchyDoom in the backburner? I have left a few ideas for tweaks on that mods' post and it is picking up popularity among a few doom streams since i've been playing.

Confirmed working with monster mods that would trip this frequently, very cool~

Re: [4.4] Corruption Cards - +20 new cards!

Post by Dan_The_Noob »

would it be a lot of work to rename the cards in CCARDS to match their ingame names?

I guess it would break peoples' existing decks, but sometimes it's hard to remember what they are called in the list vs ingame.
