I think I may have overhyped myself for this a bit, because I honestly prefer the old version a little.

Don't get me wrong, there is a lot of hard work that you've put into this Johnny, no denying that. I think you've done a really good job with the mod. But something about it just feels off for me. I'm not really a fan of the new weapon sprites, and I don't find the sounds as nice as before. I'm also not really sure why you took away the rifle start, and only gave us the pistol. And also I find it less quick than before, like it's more sluggish overall.

Like I said, I appreciate the hard work you do with this mod, and it's still a great offshoot of regular BD. But I think I'm gonna' have to stick to the old version for now. Maybe I'll warm up to it later, who knows.

Using gameplay mods with mapsets that utilize DEHACKED for custom actors is a very bad idea for reasons I have loudly bitched about in the past.

What's the difference between the Doomworld version and this version of Ultimate Simplicity?

This isn't a separate version; it's a compatibility patch.

Damn, it seems like the people who like this are mostly those who didn't play the original. I don't know what to do about that

I've been enjoying the new version a lot, actually.

An entirely redistributed modified version... I wouldn't call that a patch.

Like I said, it's not bad, not bad at all. I guess I'm just so used to the old version that it makes it difficult to get used to how it is now.

Keep doing what you're doing man, 'cause we still love you're work.

Thanks mans.

j_usimp just has the status bar removed. Otherwise it has a message saying "TURN OFF THE MAIN DOOM HUD" across the center of the screen that won't go away. And it's a really good mapset so I wanted to make it playable

My bad. Looks like I made an assumption and also an ass out of myself

I like this new version so far. I honestly haven't played the mod in awhile, so it's been nice to get back into it.

Small bug that is ultimately unimportant, but might be easy to crush: You can enter Maximum Overdrive and spend your J Points on a powerup while dead.

Hey people, i have a question. I'm using all my life ZDoom for Runnin Doom with mods, or only doom. But i downloaded yesterday the beta 3.0 of Zandronum, and i can't run JohnnyDoom, this is the error what launch:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The First in Red.
Script error, "JohnnyDoom.pk3:mapinfo" line 11:
Unknown property 'NoInfighting' found in skill definition
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The second on Yellow.
Execution could not continue.

Script error, "JohnnyDoom.pk3:decorate" line 16:
Invalid state parameter a_quakeex
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


If you ask, i can't using the latest version of GZDoom because a technic problems with my pc, my machine is old, so, understand me. But if this no have a solution, no problem.

Appreciate someone sent me a version especially Zandronum to run this. Thanks!
