Is there an SPOS Sargeant wielding an SSG somewhere?

Post by MartinHowe »

I'm making a shotgun analogue to TheUndeadSoldier's pistol zombie (which in turn is based on JoeyTD's pistol zombie). Basically a regular shotgun guy wielding a supershotgun, or something that looks sufficiently like it. The R667 repository has a sawed-off zombie, but he doesn't look like a classic sargeant; it also has a supershotgun zombie, but he's a modified chaingunner sprite.

The code is all written, and I'm going to have to sprite it myself; but before I do, does anyone know of any other existing shotgun guy variants that are free to use in mods? There's so much spriting out there in dribs and drabs in odd threads, I'm pretty sure I've missed it if there is one somewhere.

So basically this sort of thing, but with regular SPOS sprites as a base:

That's pretty good :thumb: You've done a lot of work in these. Thanks!

After trying him out, maybe the holding gun in the air pose is better; the reason it it's not easy to tell at a glance they're different due to Doom's low res sprites; of course, it's not as realistic, looks good in a gangster movie but how the heck did the Repository guy aim the blasted thing :) Then again, an SSG at one metre doesn't really need aiming :twisted: The alternate variant makes it easier to tell, though, as the face is different.
