Do you know any good: "vanilla weaponry with reloads" mods?

Post by Thedarkcube »

I've been playing a lot lately due to my PC getting killed and having to resort to delta touch.

I've been playing with this viewtopic.php?f=43&t=34870 but this mod breaks the medkit sprites for whatever reason and the shotgun with 12 shells and obligatory reload (can't stop it by any means) kinda threw me off.

I also used this one https://www.dropbox.com/s/jfw4zjrwv696e ... 6.pk3?dl=0 but the manual item pickups made it painful to use (also it didn't have shell ejections wich are something I really liked about the previous mod).

The only good alternative I've found was xaser's parkour mod but it's not doom1 friendly so I decided to ask around here for the veterans who sail through the gameplay mods.

P.s when I say "vanilla" I mean vanilla sprites and sounds (smooth doom basically). The weapon behavior doesn't need to be vanilla.

Edit: I found what I was looking for viewtopic.php?f=43&t=51762 if someone knows how to make a script to make the shells fade with time, please tell me.

I think the best answer is "code your own" because reload pauses change the flow of the game and the balance of the weapons so much that I've never seen anything that just does "vanilla + reload" without a bunch of other stuff.

.pk3s are literally zips. You can create and edit them with anything that can do stuff with zips.

I used both in the past but they aren't full vanilla.

you can use github or something i guess. It wouldn't be too hard if it works well on mobile (i haven't tried). An example of a doom mod that does this is hideous destructor (here's the github page)

You'll need:

- something that lets you package zips
- something that lets you manage user files in folders
- something that lets you edit text

I wouldn't even try to do any image stuff on a phone (at least not anything pixel-related or that requires setting transparencies), but that's just me.
