(v3.1c) Enhanced Vanilla Project (EVP) - My first Doom mod

[A_D_M_E_R_A_L]

Thanks man! I absolutely adore EVP, and I sincerely appreciate your hard work!
On a side note, do you think you could add an option for pistol starts in the next version of the mod?

Forced pistol starts? Eh, what stops you from just doing idclevxx or "map mapxx" in the console? (xx - map number)

Small changes to the intermission screen
Rocket explosions now behave like in DOS Doom AKA they're infinitely tall
Changed the sounds for most ammo pickups
Font update to the menu and certain HUD elements

[Gorec]

i had these thoughts for a while but i always forget to actually post here:
1.option to change zombie projectiles into hitscanners like in vanilla doom, chaingunners and shotgunners cant do shit if i go in circles(for spidermind too)
2.make boss teleporting effects like screenshake and sounds optional, sometimes cybers constantly teleport between their towers so it can get pretty nauseous, also screenshake for weapons in general should be optional
3.make ssg actually gib enemies like in smooth doom, shotgun stays the same
4.i noticed this right now but i sometimes cant tell how much damage i take with these new damage colors,i dont see an option to change that in any way
5. oh yeah and option for 100 hp lost souls

1. Hard "no" on that
2. Might make screen shake optional
3. It's fine as is
4. Damage screen stuff is weird
5. Same as #1

[Gorec]

1.why not? having that option makes the mod more vanilla like, same as attack offsets and rocket infinite height damage
3.all ssg gibbing option is doing right now is just spawning more blood and a bit of meat, cant really call that gibbing
5.same as #1, i know lost souls can be annoying but only some wads actually benefit from reducing their health, also as a different approach maybe buff their hp to 70 or 80

Hey there! Got a crash to console on GZDoom v4.10.0. This happens on Nightmare mode when a certain amount of time has passed, or something like that. Maybe it has something to do with enemies or something. I checked my load order and even when EVP is the only mod, it still crashes the same. Really fun mod! Among my favorites. Just hope this gets fixed one day so that I can play nightmare ^v^

 if(Cvar.GetCVar("mblur_pcurve",plr).GetInt() == 1) pitchcurve = sin(90. - abs(plr.mo.pitch)); 

Idk how this can cause issues, I did some testing and everything is fine. If for some reason you have motion blur on, try turning it off.

From the line it looks like that CVar is missing, maybe a faulty download messed up the CVARINFO file?

Hey there ! ^v^

I disabled motion blur, I have it on because I think it's pretty.
This did however, lead me to discover a different error message upon disabling it!
Same type of Nightmare mode crash. I noticed it may have something to do with how
enemies respawn. When the black and red variants show up, things get unstable. Posting the
full log !

I hope this helps a bit more ! Tested in E1M1, no other mods, killed enemies around map then circled around to let them respawn

[A_D_M_E_R_A_L]

OKAY, the culprit is the particles not caching properly for respawned monsters (only imps and nobles) which I've just fixed on my end.
