Gave this the usual 30 minutes of playtesting and already found a bug: when you upgrade the revolver to a revolver carbine, if you pickup another heavy handgun you'll have both the revolver with carbine kit and the basic 5 shot revolver.

Other than that, it's all pretty solid and I can feel that much like your other works it's getting pretty much close to finished. :D

P.S.: you forgot the fists in there

Sorry, had a busy morning. About the Revolvers, it happens with Derrick's Desert Eagle too. But even though i added some inventory checks, the problem doesn't solves. So i'll get to study it better.

You know i always love feedback. Norths me to the best way.

The only i must advice though, is that the special intros are switchable on/off in the options menu. I should probably reinforce that; i remembered it from mapsets like scythe and had to make it optional :)

Other than that, i must assume i brought dumbness back when i messed up with Arachnotron MKII again. I forgot to fix the state jumping.

We are working on it sir! On our way to 4.0!

I've really enjoyed following this mod after all this time. It really has changed a lot. It's all really solid and I love booting it up with Consolation Prize + the ambience pack mentioned on the previous page. Thank you GAA for an amazing mod. :D :) :wub:

Your decorate and ACS lessons were and still are strong pillars to this. Wouldn't be the same without you. Thanks to you too ;)

I did not find it in the changelog but was it my impression or the sprites of the dead soldiers were replaced?
I found it cool, one suggestion is to replace the sprites of dead bodies with spiders or other insects, Would combine a lot with the battlefield.

Obs: In my opinion this mod should win a for creativity and thematic spider, since I found no resemblance like this.

Yes, they did! Sorry, forgot about that one. I wanted to use Doom 64's, but they're way too big. So, i just used Freedoom's, so evertime the mod is loaded on custom players it keeps the originality. :)

Thanks for the kind words! Well, you can surely say it's the doom mod that explores insects more intensively than no other :lol:

- RG-220 Auto Slugger Carbine doesn't feel like i'm shooting an automatic shotgun loaded with slug rounds. I mean, it has no special effects like penetration or powerful puff, just shoots only one deadly hitscan.
I'm almost sure that the auto in its name refers to its autoloading nature, as in: you shoot one round, and the action cycles to both eject the spent shell and feed a new one. Plenty of firearms (particularly older ones) have automatic in their name but do nothing more than work as I explained above.
I will agree with you that it could use some fancy puff sprites...but from the looks of it, it really shooting just a big bullet (speaking of that, the magazine shows a bullet loaded into it, any plans on changing that so it's a shell?).

No, what i mean is, the effect of the fired rounds. Yes, only that. I know how automatic shotguns works and i'm not against with that. The shot just needs some special effects to put cherry on top.
