NiGHTMARE: LOL! :laff: Yes I know what a condom is and no I didn't mean "common"...! Haha! :D But I can see how one would assume so.... :lol:

Psycho Siggi: Well, there may actually be a lot of Heretic fans here, or maybe less than I think, but I assume that a lot of the Heretic-haters would join in the development to "set things right" and remake Heretic into something they "WOULD have liked" as opposed to what it was....

As for making the next project "from scratch", it's already been done. ZDCMP1 (done) and ZDCMP2 (still in progress A.F.A.I.K.) to name a couple of'em. Besides I think remaking original levels and/or playing reamde versions of original levels is more fun.

One of my major complaints of Heretic is that there's no way near enough texures, so I'd certainly have to do something about that. I also know of a few monsters that seem pretty suitable for the setting (and no, they're not just ones from Hexen ;)).

My biggest complain about Heretic? No slopes and/or room-over-room.... And I'm sure we can fix at least one of those...! :wink:

If there is going to be a Heretic one, I'd wait for Decorate weapons so there can be some more original spells (and not the Doom ripoff weapons). I didn't really like Heretic's weapons, and I think the game could use some more interesting spells and such.

Oh great, a Zheretic e1 by all of you. I can't wait to see how BAD this will be, especially when you consider heretic has some of the best gameplay of all the doom engine games.

Who said it will loose it? That aside, I nominate You as our zdoom.org wad prophet. What do You think of RTC Hub 2 or Raynor's Tale, or Elidor, or Foreverhood? Let me guess: They'll all suck because they'll be quality. Hahahaa

While remixing old maps is ok once in a while for old times' sake, a small hint - make something new

Get a life, KDIZD is something new in it, not everyday maps get remixed and not in such a way. I believe it's a quite innovative idea. What I'm tired of are the same shit techbases with no artistic merit and same old shitwads and weapon mods, because good projects (KDIZD including) aside that's what the most newstuffs consist of.

That they will be, surely. I'm really looking forward to RTC Hub 2 because Hub 1 kicked ass, and Foreverhood is probably one of the most unique WADs I've ever seen. As for Raynor's Tale, I think pretty muc hthe only thing I'd look forward to more than KDIZD is that. The original Raynor's Tale screenshots on WIP had me in a state of uncontrollable-drool/semi-orgasm. I only wish ZDooM had GL so Raynor's Tale could REALLY kick ass. By the way what the hell happened to it anyway? Tomi hasn't updated about it or added anything (even comments) to his WIP section for Raynor's Tale, for like ages.... :( And what's this "Elidor" I hear about?
