Welcome to the ZDoom Forums!

The modpack reviser is a bit scuffed. It picks a random non-blacklisted modpack and stores it to i, but then it redefines i to spawn the modpack(s), so it actually just spits out the first non-blacklisted modpack.

as for a possible idea, do you think it's possible to work a Random option into the mod when choosing a class?
so like one time you pick it you're the Renegade, but the next time you pick it you're playing the Sarge etc. etc.

a "Random" class would be cool too, one that changes every map. (would need some carryover for things like mod space and things, or maybe can make the cap lower without losing some, but unable to pickup new ones until you use below the limit)

What, like an Ultra Nanomaniac? lmao

I guess, but more of a meta-option
like, it's not really a class so much as just a "random" option that changes per-map. it would pair well with corruption cards and other roguelite elements from RLA

When Sarge schlups up the mini-missile pistol, it takes an entire rocket to fire one shot, where normally you get a whole reload (6 shots) for a single rocket. Unsure what other fringe cases there might be like this one.

Love this mod, by the way. Cheers.

I think the gizmo handler's SpawnGizmo fails on maps that don't have any actors, or something. The hub map in Compendium is an example. It causes a hard crash.

You also lose any soul traps, radar devices, and probably filled soul traps whenever you change levels. I think it's because Inventory.InterhubAmount defaults to 1 instead of Inventory.MaxAmount (why?!) because specifying InterhubAmount fixes it.

Hi! Your mod works in DoomRPG SE Rebalance in LZDoom?

Sorry for the bumping.

But since the thread states that the mod needs a ZScript version of GZDoom, i think it would also be a nice thing to state that the mod won't work with LZDoom too.

It brings up an error during boot:
I unfortunately don't know if that's the only error that keeps it from being compatible with LZDoom tho.

I had the chance to play this in multiplayer with a friend and it mostly works, however it seems familiars cause a de sync, it shouldn't be enough to majorly impact a co op experience as the chance to get a familiar in co op is a bit rare, I'm not sure if the other classes cause any problems (It was a sarge+ tech run) if i get another chance to play this co op i may see if any more problems come up
EDIT
Discovered a few extra bugs
Nomad is unplayable in multiplayer as it causes de sync
Dropping radar devices causes a de sync for some reason
I havent tested but the other added inventory items could be also affected

Doesn't work with LZDoom 3.88b
"Execution could not continue. 2 errors while parsing DECORATE scripts"

Device:
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 N970 2.5 GHz

GZDoom works slowly on all modes at low graphics settings.

LZDoom's ZScript version may be too old to run this. Are you able to try GZDoom in OpenGL ES mode?

-radar instantly de-syncs players in co-op when used or dropped.
-Nomad CAN cause de-sync depends on the gun or something, haven't nailed it down.


-the little machine that expects a specific recipe gun might need to be less specific.. it asked for a demolition combat pistol which isn't a particularly good choice to make but a demolition ammo gun would be a good choice.

Yes, I tried it. GZDoom runs slowly on my laptop in both modes (software and hardware). My video chip is not fast enough (Radeon Mobility HD 5470)... although it runs Dying Light on ultra-low graphics settings

I go into detail about this here! In case someone is looking for footage of what this mod adds.

I love this extended version of RLA, can't go back after playing with it
Would be even more awesome to have a melee based class

I would like to make one but beyond certain shenanigans, the options for melee play in this mod is limited mostly to default doom hitscan punches and chainsaws, which I don't find that useful (ESPECIALLY against higher tier DRLAmonsters). Don't get me wrong I think the one-two-uppercut is fun and fantastic, but DRLA is fun because of the weapon variety and how they work with the classes. I would end up having to make my own weapons for DRLA if I wanted a melee class, but under the hood it's a bit tricky as DRLA's code is so oldschool (plus I would not want to rob the author of the mod, yholl, the fun of making new weapons).

I did experiment with a class that shortened the range of projectile weapons massively and converted the damage to melee, but it didn't feel that interesting (plus due to old code again, had issues).

how viable would it be to make a generic/freeform version of DRLA classes that can work with any mod? (obviously technician and other mod-related classes would need a new perk)
