Pushed a fixed - download the mod once more and that issue should go away.

Code: Select all

- FIX: Monster replacement event was missing flag for better reliability on actually replacing monsters when some map makers put in odd monster/object placements
Small thing that should allow more maps to have my monster variations show up. There were some instances where vanilla monsters were not being replaced correctly because the placement of said monster was in a wall or too close for the spawn to occur.

With the latest version (10/19/22), Pinkies and Spectres are having pathfinding issues in my game; i.e. getting stuck up against walls and objects and running in place without even changing the direction they face instead of going around them, and not running over teleporting linedefs for monster closets. The only reliable way to get them unstuck is for me to circle around so that the wall they're running up against is opposite of my position relative to the monster. I tested this by spawning a pinkie on map01 of Doom2 in both the northern room with the zombie platforms and in the central room before the exit.

Thanks for the report. I believe I know what the issue is and have a fix ready to go but the editor I was using for my editing and source control recently closed shop so I am grabbing another one. Once I do that, I can push over a fix.

Just chipping in to say I recently played this mod and it's fantastic! I'll have a proper playthrough of it with a really cool mapset soon, but for now I showed off some of its guns in a slightly outdated version. Keep up the good work!

I also realize I completely missed the kick, but it's cool to see it matches player color!

Thanks for the playthrough! I appreciate people making videos whenever they can as it provides a nice way for me to see how people play. Glad you enjoyed it!

Do you know if this is compatible with skins that change the player model and the mugshot?

I have a player skin based off my pfp that I tend to use for more vanilla oriented stuff, so i was curious.

You're welcome, I'll definitely play some more maps with Faspons in the future now that I have a beefier machine! I recently released map that plays quite well with Faspons too, so I'll add that to the recommended mods list. :)

Should be compatible! I don't do anything fancy with the HUDs so as long as the mod replaces the current mugshots, I don't foresee any issues. However, if you do try using it and see anything odd, let me know and I can take a look into it.
