Small Addons for Doom

[Cyanosis]

While this is nothing new to most, I thought I'd just put these together for anyone that wants them.

I believe in a minimalistic approach so these don't heavily alter Doom, save for ExtraEnemy's additional monsters. Brief descriptions are as follows:

BloodFix - Corrects blood colors on Hell Nobles and Cacos, also makes Spectre bleed black and Lost Souls bloodless.

ExtraEnemy - Adds some extra enemies to the game, recreated in DECORATE and using color translations, nothing is out of theme and they have been rebalanced to match the originals (e.g. same health and painchance, some of the attacks).

NoInfighting - Enemies will not turn on each other, although they still take damage, forcing the player to do all the dirty work, useful for an extra challenge.

NoTrans - Removes translucency from projectiles and teleport fog, for a more old school appearance in GZDoom.

NEW Unfair - For those times when Doom just isn't hard enough. The Arch-Vile, Spider Mastermind and Cyberdemon have raise states added. Enough said.

NEW ExtraEnemyUnfair - Same as above but designed to work with ExtraEnemy, raise states added to Vile2, Demolisher and Thamuz actors. Have a blast on Hell Revealed.

And there's six PLAYPALs, two types of modern, alternative palette (desaturated green and blue), a bright palette (more saturated green and lighter blue), gloomy palette (all colors desaturated to give a colder appearance), noir palette (grayscale and red/pink colors only), and the palette from Stronghold (alternative blue and green colors).

Nice, but the MediaFire link does not appear to be working...

Updated link, for the third time with the third update. This is prone to happen unfortunately, as if there's even just the littlest thing that may bug me I can often redo something many, many times until it is perfect or at least acceptable. Team Fortress 2 has nothing on me.

Last update regarding ExtraEnemy and the last update in general.

Thanks for this pack of mutators, I quite enjoy using them. I'm a big fan of small mutator wads that you can mix and match with other wads so this is very appreciated. I noticed one bug where with the noir PLAYPAL the nightmare imp (and possibly others) is not in greyscale. Thanks for putting this together~

I suppose that's due to the translation "ice" which is hardwired into the engine port and it doesn't get affected by any palette.

Well since I can't leave anything alone the last update to ExtraEnemy was more so a round off of a few small things, most notably the Hectebus has the Skulltag attack now. I really need to do more proper testing, say at least a week of personal play time, before considering release of anything in the future so I don't have to put others through needless re-downloading. But there is a "project" of mine that has indeed been worked on since earlier this year. It is a modification of Woolie Wool's Mutiny 2.0 mod, which he stated in permissions it could be used as a base for additional modification. And when I feel it is truly ready I will happily upload it for others to check out.

Once I got the proper credit for the other resources used that is.

Decided to make the Nightmare Caco more dangerous by giving it the Enhanced Caco attack alongside it's regular one (due to the absence of the Enhanced variant). That is all.

Welp, I now have a legitimate excuse to bump this thread again (sorry for the potential attention whoriness) because two new addtions were added to the pack! Review above and grab yer copies for those who already got the rest.

Did you also add a raise state to the Lost Soul and make it and the Pain Elemental leave (invisible) corpses?

[DaMan]

[wiki]Cvars[/wiki] are your friend. r_drawtrans 0 to disable transparency and infighting -1 to disable infighting (set to 1 for some imp on imp action).

[Cyanosis]

Lost Souls and Pain Elementals? Now that is just mean!

r_drawtrans 0 does not work properly in GZDoom, it'll disable translucent textures when applicable but monster projectiles are unaffected. You can only make the Lost Soul opaque through the options menu.

BTW there will be an update again later today, I need to fix the raise states for the Cyber/Spider bosses because they look sloppy. Also going to change up the attacks for Thamuz/Demolisher to be more dangerous.

Loved it I will make a video of it soon.

New versions upped. Fixed raise states for Unfair add-ons. Removed the arachno plasma from Thamuz, he now shoots six rockets in a faster succession but are still dodgable. BFG blast is a genuine BFG ball, no more seeker but it has the spray effect. And the invulnerable state was removed during the Hecteball spread attack so it can be interrupted. Demolisher has a triple red plasma ball attack that does 8 damage per ball instead of 5 like the arachno's and player's and covers significantly greater ground in that case. Only fires one BFG ball instead of two to match Thamuz. I suppose the Demolisher is in a sense easier than the regular spider boss due to a lack of hitscan, but it does have potentially more destructive weaponry.

Could I get an updated link for the main download? (I want the blood wad).


Thanks!
