YEAH WHAT OKAY

anyway, I'm saying the game isn't complete without those cheats. Fine then I don't care if you put those cheats in in version 9.0 or before or even after that. As long as you put those cheats in. People don't want to use them just don't type the cheat. It wouldn't hurt just to have the cheat.

like I said, it wouldn't hurt just to have those cheats. I can do the gimme cheats in the console but not the shadowcaster when I want to change classes in the middle of the game while retaining my original items without trying to remember what items I had before.

Instead of starting the game and having your hopes dashed when you reach the Heresiarch without your intended class, you should use the mdk command and kill him instantly. Then you won't have to worry about what class you fight him with because he will die instantly.

It is working as intended.

Sounds like a "no" to me.

what fun would it be if I cannot fight him in the exact place at the exact time?

I don't know.

Why do you want to get there as (for example) a mage, then morph into a cleric at the exact same place and time anyway? If you'd been playing as a cleric from the start, you'd have different stuff and arrived at a different time so why the big fuss?

It really doesn't look like Randy is going to code this just so that one user can fight the same monster as different classes using the exact inventory gathered up to that point by whichever class had been picked at the start of the game. It's very much a request for one person with no real benefit to anyone else. Zdoom already has alternative ways of doing it and Randy's time could be far better spent providing useful things that lots of people want.

Where's pacman when you need him?

Oh, and this cheat simply isn't going to be added to ZDoom, period. It's pretty much worthless, really, and would take 100x more effort in coding it in than what the results would be.

Let's face it. We have a n00b, 100%. He's pretty much asking for the response he's getting, desperately asking for some pretty much pathetic cheats, whinging when he gets an obvious 'no' and seemingly incapable of understanding what is said if it isn't obvious.

yeah put this cheat in when everything else is fixed. I don't care if this is put in the 100th version.

I'll just let randy code the other stuff and leave shadowcaster for last. I can wait as long as it is not not done. I never said to enable the cheat now. Randy can even take 10 years when there are no more bugs, then is the time that the shadowcaster cheat should be there.

You realize that there are better ways of doing things than these cheats. Ever hear of the console?

Phobus · Post by **Phobus** » Sat Jul 30, 2005 3:25 pm

Then why whinge about it? If it's put in that late you won't care by then anyway. Your entire argument here has been a waste of time. IT IS NOT HAPPENING. So give up and stop being so childish.

I really hope randy says he won't put it in on purpose, just to teach you a lesson.

Post by **randi** » Sat Jul 30, 2005 3:37 pm

No, I already said I won't put it in because the result isn't worth the effort.
