Rust and Bones - (v1.5) Mar/23

Any chance you'll add an upgrade for the revolver, super shotgun and machine gun

alongside maybe a rare chance to find a plasma rifle and/or bfg?

i second this

Do you think you'll add more upgrades/extra weapons as time goes on? Would be cool to get a more tactical rifle as a rarer upgrade kind of like the Hunting Shotgun.

I know, i know. It's cool to have a lot of guns. I have a few things in mind, but i don't see much more than one or two weapons being added to the roster. I think the arsenal is pretty big as it is. For a short answer, i have nothing in mind now, but let's wait and see.

EDIT:

To avoid letting people curious about how the new water effects look:



I was inspired by HEXERETICDoom and his Heretic fantasy mod. I gathered the Shadow Warrior water textures and edited all the 15 of them to make them translucent and add a ground from Hexen below it. That'll be mentioned on the credits list on v1.4.

Ooh, neat! Love interactivity with the environments!

Also love the new HUD, the revolver damage boost is surprising but welcome - I think its a perfect weapon/sidearm at the moment. I personally like it currently always using speedloaders, I find that single loading vs speedloading in games (helldivers 2 for example) just encourages firing off rounds needlessly to gain the speed boost of a speedloader.

Also if its any consolation I'd have to agree I like the current amount of weapons, I find too many weapons just make the game feel more bloated. (Hot take) I think a good example of this is Project Brutality. Love the enemies, but having 5'ish weapons per slot with 3'ish functions each just a bit much. However, I think upgrades are a different story, but as-is I'm absolutely loving its current state!

Yeah, I'd think of it more as a replacement for the prior weapon so it makes more sense than carrying around 4-5 shotguns, 3 full rifles, etc. More gear and items are always welcome too!

Mod was updated to v1.4!

I wasn't meant to update it so soon, but i forgot some essential credits, and if you played the mod for longer than 10 minutes, you realized the keys placement was going over the health bars.

Here's the changelog:

- Small sound tweaks in the knife;
- Fixed keys on the HUD covering the bars;
- Fixed column prop not having bright lights;
- Fixed missing sprites of the XDeath mugshot;
- Added a secondary bright point to the normal lamp;
- Hunting shotgun now chambers a round after loading (Thanks to TheRailgunner);

Unless any of you find a game breaking bug, this will be a stalling point for now! Enjoy!

Great mod. One thing I'd like to see is an optional Condemned-style ammo system, needing to hold down R to see the remaining bullets in the mag.

When I try to launch with the mod I get nothing but a black screen. I can hear the sound effects when selecting things but can't get any visuals to appear.

Unfortunately this happens with all my mods as of late. I haven't changed anything in my TITLEMAPS in the last 7 years. It's a renderer problem.



So this is what i can recommend: Try another sourceport, try opening the console, or even spamming enter for starting the game, or even, changing your rendering settings to Vulkan. One of these options should work.
