ZDoom

My only issue with it is that it makes it rather difficult to use the grenades like grenades when you throw them at a wall and they bounce back at 90mph towards you. They're very fun to use though and the altfire is very cool

Also, some odd thing that happens from time to time while playing. Suddenly, all of my attacks will seem to be coming from way under my crosshair, and the boomerang starts to bug out. It'll still pick up items, but upon returning the boomerang keeps spinning in the air holding the item until I move, in which I get the boomerang back and the item is dropped. Enemies will also go occasionally go through the player (in Heretic, when imps charge they can go straight through Corzo.) This seems to only happen in Heretic, I think, but it might happen in Doom as well, I dunno. Also, the keyboard shortcut for using the Deadman's Holster only works for the BFG9000 replacement, not the item in Heretic.

I think the "attacks aren't aligned with crosshair" bug happens if you finish a level while sliding. Try sliding again or crouching and uncrouching, i recall something along those lines fixing it for me.

I'll try that, thanks for letting me know!

Now all we need is a western music mod to play this bad boy with,lel

One of the Few things i had issue with was the handgrenades. I Recently figured out whati would have replaced them with though and that would be a a dynamite bundle ala Blood. though what dwe do have is pretty high quality.

It's true that Dynamite suits both perfectly and retrospectively to the western spaghetti theme, but i think small, light compact hand grenades would do because you throw them quickly and bounce on everywhere in the game. Feels like it's something dyna would never do.

Anyone know any western music packs?

Need a little help with some code fuckery. Trying to modify the dead man's holster to not use up a charge when firing, essentially making it unlimited. (cheaty I know, shhh.) How would I go about doing this?

Trivial. Open zactors/items/quickdraw.zsc, go to line 524, and comment it out.

Spoiler:

Code: Select all

522    Use:
523        TNT1 A 0 A_JumpIfInventory("BasilissaSummoned",1,"PickupFail");
524        //TNT1 A 0 A_JumpIf(CountInv("SpaghettiCharged1") == 0,"PickupFail");
525        TNT1 A 0
526        {
527            if (CountInv("QuickDrawTimer") == 0 && CountInv("ImIdle") == 1)
528            {
529                if (el_revolverammo)
530                { // If our revolver takes ammo, reload it here.
531                    if(CountInv("RevolverRound") < RevolverMagSize)

Like so. However that special feature should feel like a treat to use, so avoid it lest you cheapen it like that.

You could probably add a check in there for "if(!sv_infinteammo) ..." or somesuch that it only checks for available ammo if that sv is disabled.

Thank you very much guys, appreciate the help!

Hello, I am playing through Hexen on gzDoom 4.5.0 using High Noon Drifter and in several places I have been blocked due to not being able to jump high enough, in the second hub (can't jump up the rocks to get to the secret level, had to come back with the saddle) and most importantly in the third hub map Orchard of Lamentations, where progression is stopped due to insufficient jump height. I'm not sure what is going on there specifically but I thought someone should look into it...

Just increase your jump mod in the mods settings menu.

Hexen's playerclasses have a JumpZ of 9, while all other games employ 8. Just set Jump mod to 1.125 and you should be good to go.

On a side note: In Strife the player has a MaxStepHeight of 16, while all other games have 24. AFAIK, it's not possible to change that inside HND's options menu.
