Hideous Destructor Morcillete's addons 02/Oct/2015

[Morcillete]

Hi all,
here I will place my addons for the great Vaecrious' Hideous Destructor mod.

=============
SOUNDS ADDON
=============

It changes some of the sounds to make stuff like weapons and explosions feel more powerful.

Change log:

---

1.3 to 1.4:
-Now using .ogg format reducing the file size from more than 1.7 mb to 228 kb. I don't know why the hell I didn't make this before...
-Fixed shotgun sounds not working in recent HD versions.
-New brontornis fire sound.
-New far explosion sound.

1.2 to 1.3:
-Changed rifle and battle rifle sounds. Now they are quite different.
-Added far explosion sound.
-Removed supersonic crack sound.
-Probably some minor tweaks (I cannot really remember but I think I changed some sounds a bit)...

1.1 to 1.2:
-Changed far sounds.
-New supersonic crack sound (probably will be changed again in the future).
-Changed crack sound volume to make it audible.

1.0 to 1.1:
-Changed dsfclk sound (the one used when the forend is pulled back during reload) to make the shotgun reload sound consistent with the modified shotgun cocking sound.
-Changed a bit rifle sounds.
-Changed shotgun sounds to fit better with the rifle ones.
-Lowered supersonic crack sound volume to make rifle sounds audible and shotgun sounds not to feel underpowered in comparison.

First version to 1.0:
-Rifle sprites removed. Now this is a sound only mod. I don't feel they make sense any more as I like the current rifle sprites.
-Added many missing sounds.
-Lowered the volume of the rifle sounds as it was too loud in comparison with the rest.

=========================
BONUS REPLACEMENT ADDON
=========================
It is supposed to be a small "realistic" replacer for the bonus items.

I've never liked those blue potions and weird green helmets scattered all around the maps when playing with hideous destructor. I don't think they fit with the general atmosphere of immersion and pseudo-realism of the mod. I don't like the ammo/grenade replacement either, because having ammo placed in corners, out of nowhere, just for you to pick it up...
The idea is to end up giving HD's gameplay a system shock corpse loot feeling. The addon is not finished but until I find some time to tweak it I will leave it like it is right now.

What this addon does is to replace health potions and armor helmets with the following:
-Corpses, some of which may have some random loot nearby.
-Blood pools.
-Nothing at all (most of the time).

Change log:

---

1.4 to 1.5:
- Beserk pack significantly more likely to spawn.
- Blue potions and green helmets significantly more likely to spawn.
- Med stations pack slightly more likely to spawn.

1.3 to 1.4:
- Blue potions and armor bonuses can now spawn next to dead marines.
- Technically, spheres can appear next to dead marines too but is brutally unlikely.
- Minor tweaks to some spawn chances.

1.2 to 1.3:
- Some changes in the main spawner (it think...).

1.1 to 1.2:
- Added more spawn choices using Vaecrius' new replacements as reference.
- Balance changes.

1.0 to 1.1:
- Modified most of the spawners.
- Added a more varied loot (I think now every weapon and item has at least a minimum a certain chance to spawn).
- Small balance changes (mainly increasing health and grenade pickups), but this task is far from being finished.

Screenshot (The map most saturated with bonuses in doom2 I could think of - Obviously not a good representation of the most frequent gameplay but useful to show the concept):

=====================================
SMG ZOMBIES SPRITE REPLACEMENT ADDON
=====================================
Replaces the smg zombies sprites with the realm667 "SMG ZOMBIE" ones (http://www.realm667.com/index.php/en/be ... smg-zombie).

Change log:

---

First version to 1.1:
- FIXED: Due to an error in the decorate file, I think that the replaced zombies actually were zm66 zombies with smg zombie sprites.

===============================
ITEMS SPRITE REPLACEMENT ADDON
===============================
Replace the some items sprites with certain resources from realm667:

Stimpack -> "ADRENALINE KIT" http://realm667.com/index.php/en/item-s ... naline-kit
Io look like an small injector.

Radsuit world sprite -> "ENERGY KIT" http://www.realm667.com/index.php/en/it ... energy-kit
To look like a small box containing the suit instead of a enormous inexplicably standing suit.

Berserker kit -> "SUPERSTIM" http://www.realm667.com/index.php/en/it ... -superstim
It looks similar but less bulky.

I like the sound replacements, it does make the guns feel a bit more powerful. Good swap for the rifle too, I always thought it was a bit weird looking.

Thanks for the feedback!
Any criticism/suggestion I also welcome.

Hi, why do i load holocas.wad with the map missing?

It sounds like you have a problem with something unrelated to the map or mod. You may want to post it in General instead of bumping other peoples' months-old Projects threads about it.

[Morcillete]

Updated the thread with a new download link to the file using proper resources.
Tomorrow I will try to upload a video, as a screenshot is not the best way to show a sound mod.
And again, my apologies for the previous sound resources!

[Morcillete]

Updated the thread with two videos showing the sounds and a short shootout.

[Matt]

Added.

I really like the new shotgun racking sound (which I refuse to the point of inability to replace in the main mod just because it;s such an iconic sound so a mod is necessary ). I can actually hear when I should have loaded a round!

As for the rifle, though, might want to change the sound to mono, the sound seems drastically different for the player and the zombies.

[Morcillete]

Yeah, I should definitely make sounds for the zombie weapons.

[Big C]

Hey Morcilette, I felt you would want know DRDteam is still down and so the download URL no longer works.

[Morcillete]

I've uploaded the new version and changed the main post.
I tried to fix the zombies having a really different rifle sound and now explosions and other sounds have been modified as well to make it feel more consistent.

I will upload a video with the new sounds as soon as I can.

GAH WHY DID YOU BUMP THIS I THOUGHT THERE WAS AN UPDATE-
Oh. Okay, cool.

[Abba Zabba]

Still can't download the file, even before the update.

Sorry guys!!
