...on the other hand, I could go ahead and release the demo and say to that person: If you didn't want your stuff in the final release, I will remove it.

I think it's good idea to release it already :D well of course it depends was that "stuff" something cool... Btw you said earlier that everything is ready so does it take much time to release it because my friend wants to test it but he must leave in 1 hour... :wink:

Here is the demo!

The "stuff" was Isle's camera rocket launcher.

Id software will probably sue me for the ripped stuff from doom 3 :lol:

It doesn't have a text file with credits and stuff (yet), but still, you know who you are. But, apparently, that's not crediting :roll:

I thought the rocket launcher was cool. (that was the thing ripped from isle)

It was supposed to be one of those weapons that you used while hiding. You could guide the missile around the level and blow stuff up!

You have to use GZDoom and a new version of the demo with the fixed rocket launcher is available.

I played the first two levels of the demo. Quite impressive. The weapon mods were somewhat of a problem though. The guns use two bullets which makes a big ammo shortage. The pistol's smoke was quite unneeded also. With the rocket launcher, when you select it you couldn't fire it and couldn't switch weapons. I also found some map issues but before I continue playing could you possibly fix the weapons up a bit first? The cutscenes were quite nice also and I might make a map for it.
PS: I was using the fixed demo with the latest version of GZDoom.

Just played this. I'd agree with all that's been said about the weapons, especially the gun smoke (you might want to try reducing the alpha). Also, I'd suggest toning down the amount of sparks generated by shotgun puffs. Also remember that we have multiple death states for BulletPuff, so I'd certainly recommend getting rid of the sparks for hitting a bleeding actor.

The maps themselves show quite a bit of promise, but are still going to need some severe spit and polish. I'm not talking Tormentor detail here, just a bit of incidental detail - at the moment, with the exception of the weapons, there isn't a great deal going on to distinguish this as a ZDoom mod at all. And MAP01 needs some major attention, particularly in the latter half - it's practically indistinguishable from the original.

The ambient music kicks ass. Hell, if no-one's called it yet, can you put me down for MAP04? It's a smallish level, and since this will be the first map I've ever released (note: by no means the first map I've made), at least if it sucks it won't be too hard to fix :?

EDIT: Damnit, MAP04's taken. Still, I'd like to volunteer for any other maps that are free.
