This here is a similar concept with way better execution, a gameplay mod with fast paced gameplay and enhanced replayability through spicing up gameplay with modern design like more complex attack patterns. But this time I didn't forget about the enemies, you and your weapons may be an unstoppable force, but the demons are your immovable object. A lot of eye candy is borrowed from games like QUAKE and Half-Life so that things are modernized but still fit the early-industry vibe. I recommend you read the roster and arsenal sections to prevent having you wonder why that black hellknight isn't dying or trying to melee a spectre.
Main Highlights:
-Cool, futuristic-ish weapons that each have their own ideal situation and fluid animations without going overboard. All of them have an altfire.
-Intricate enemy attacks (barons & cybies doing a floor attack inspired by the Maulotaur and other surprises) along with variants that spice up your playthroughs.
-A fully supported voxelized version using Cheello's Voxel DOOM II (performance hit shouldn't be atrocious apart from the bosses or a slaughter-ish map, can't do anything about that).
-Extra decorations for mappers (dead chaingunner, dead revenant, rubble, hanging torch, etc.)
-A flashlight that uses dynamic spotlights, it works similar to the one from Half-Life 2 but lasts longer.
-Enemy variants inspired by other games in the franchise like D64 and (in a dumbed-down way) Eternal, along with re-imagining ones from DOOM RPG.
-Your beloved pew-pew weapon, the Unmaker, with an alt-fire that uses cells to heal you.
-A simple gore system (don't be scared, it's not brootal dewm) that gives enough feedback to actually feel like you're tearing through the hordes of hell.
-Very heavy use of the engine's particle system (that I've somehow never seen done before but I might just have missed it).
-A Spider Mastermind that isn't utterly pathetic, at least to some degree.
-Inventory items that can be used in specials situations, like a fuel can that you can shoot to halt enemy advance or a rare quad damage sphere with it's own mugshot and a short invulnerability.
-General player overhaul featuring diving, surfacing and swimming sounds and a flinching system Half-Life-style that moves the camera when the player is damaged, which also intertwines with jumping, which has a dedicated animation.
-Enhanced IWAD textures made by members of the community that don't break texture replacements (for example, if a mapset replaces IWAD textures, loading the mod below it should fix it).
-A testing map made by Kinsie.
-Responsive sounds for your arsenal and new ones for monsters that reuse already existing sounds (looking at you, DSDMPAIN).
-Integrated Tilt++ because that's one of the best parts about QUAKE, courtesy of Nash.
-A footstep system courtesy of The Zombie Killer.
-A boss-buff system that strengthens a certain enemy depending on the map number (but it doesn't go overboard as to not make custom maps impossible).
-A lot, and I mean, a lot of new quit messages, most being references to other shooters like L4D, HL and the QUAKE series.
-A responsive HUD inspired by Half-Life 2 that indicates your standard stuff along with your flashlight battery, map stats and inventory items. This is toggleable.
-Weapon bobbing inspired by HLMMOD's bobbing, that's also responsive to jumping. By version 3.0 there should also be weapon swaying.
-Legacy of Rust support, footsteps work perfectly and if you load the extra wad file you also have the new incinerator and ghoul elemental.
Your Arsenal:
-Fists: Your good old primate kit, beat a pinky, beat an imp, but be careful with spectres.Your hands are fast and firm, but your legs are more powerful, capable of killing revenants in 2 shots, but since you need them for balance they're slower and you can't move while using them as a weapon.
-Double-Bar Chainsaw: Meant for very specific plastic manufacturing back on Earth, somehow someone managed to sneak these to the U.A.C. bases. They're just like your regular chainsaw but twice as fast, you can also lob grenades with it.
-Enhanced Battle Rifle MK-23: Your trusty friend that will back you on your lowest lows. It may lack full-auto, but it's precise and firm enough that it's 7.62x35mm will take care of enemies until you get something better, also recommended for sniping and not just hip-firing.
-Kel-Tec TSG4: An 8-gauge shotgun may not be much for literal demons but it's capable enough to be reliable. It's altfire lets you quickly pull out the MK-23 rifle in reference to the D1 box art.
-Super Shotgun: No explanation needed, this beast of an 8-gauge weapon will demolish anything and everything around it. You can also throw grenades with it.
-Portable Chaingun: It may use a weak caliber for a chaingun but pairing it with it's heat-conversion altfire, all demons will be stunned in the literal way, so it's useful in the sandwich-type of situations.
-PSRL-3 Rocket Launcher: It may look like a regular rocket launcher, but it's underbarrel shotgun attachment can decimate most enemies due to it's triple shot burst-fire being more efficient than the SSG's.
-Plasma Rifle: A prototype so early in production it doesn't even have a standard name. It's heating problems are leveraged by it's two barrels and a dedicated heat chamber that can be used to fire a ray of death capable of going through multiple enemies.
-XL21 Incinerator: Just a regular flamethrower. A product of the New Eden installations, it's a modernization of the old 20th century flamethrowers adapted for future Hell Expeditions.
-BFG-9000: This experimental beast can and will rip through anything and anyone. Not only does it boil everyone near it's impact alive, it can also fire a wave of piercing projectiles whose number depends on how long its charged. It's also compatible with the secretive fuel ammunition provided at the New Eden installations by converting the heat into plasma.
-The Unmaker: A mostly unknown weapon created by demonkind, it uses the abundant plasma found in Hell. Holes found at the bottom indicate possible attachments in the form of "keys", none have been found for now. It can also heal the user by using the plasma ammunition to form the same substance as stimpacks and medkits currently use.
The New Roster:
-Zombies: The regular joe found at the U.A.C. bases, except each of them have been possessed. Part of them carry grenades and ammunition, except for the chaingun-wielding commander, who sometimes carries radios that you can use to call for backup from unaffected U.A.C. bases.
-Imp: Spiky, fireball-casting fodder that can't help but hiss and die.
-Nightmare Imp: A stronger variant of the imp, only found in full-scale invasions, he channels the same magic as the spectre, allowing him to become partially invisible, though his inexpertise slips some particles through.
-Spectre: These guys are NO JOKE, any reasonable person with a berserk pack will try to punch them, but this is a death wish, not only do their invisibility magic make them stronger, faster and nigh-transparent, they reach farther than you so it's recommended to kill them from a distance.
-Malwrath: Biological brother of the cacodemon, they may be tougher but the heatless fire they produce due to the plasma in their mouths alerts all prey, it's surprising they're not extinct yet. They'll fire a volley of acid plasma in counts of 2, 1 and 3 and should be taken care of with a rocket launcher, specially with it's altfire.
-Lost Soul: A fodder demon that's made up of 1 or 2 spirits, though stripped of their autonomy. They're considerably weaker and less aggressive than in the vanilla game.
-Lost Sinner: This is what dead sinners become, their pent-up anger from their terrible lives used in combat as high aggressiveness and tough bone.
-Hellknight: The weaker hell noble may not be much different from imps, but he can still trap people because of his tanky attitude.
-Ogre: This hellknight born in the fires of violence can use it's fire magic to shield itself from all penetration-based and heat-based attacks like bullets or plasma, but it's weakness is on blunt force. Some rockets or a BFG shot should get rid of them quickly, since explosions and BFG shots cause massive knockback.
-Baron of Hell: A stronger hellknight, his higher power allows him to throw a volley of 3 fireballs and create an improsived arena by closing off space from the player. It's said there are 2 unique barons of hell sited in the deepest pits of Hell, waiting for the right opportunity to go to the frontlines.
-Ghoul Elemental: A variant of the pain elemental exclusively produced by Hell for the New Eden installations, it uses the plasma energy found in ghouls to teleport them to it's mouth, similar to a pain elemental.
-Cyberdemon: A monstrous tower made from flesh & metal, it may not choose to use the same magic as baron to launch fireballs at you, but it does use it to trap you in it's own little arena.
-Spider Mastermind: Severely improved by it's mechanical skeleton, not only does it use it's chaingun to mow down everything, it can also channel hellish plasma to summon minions in case someone gets cowardly.
Important info:
This is only compatible with GZDoom, as it uses ZScript (unless you find a fork that supports current ZScript lol). It's been tested in GZD 4.11.3a but is compatible with 4.14.1 and likely higher. Everything in the mod is credited to original authors. (Cheello and Sonik.o.Fan carried this mod by the way)
My recommendations are turning max particles (in display options) to as high as you can and use brightmaps since the mod includes some for the revenant, rocket, bonuses and weapon pickups.
The voxelized version and sprite version are not synced. This means that in multiplayer games everyone must be using either one of the two.
