The scale in TEXTURES lump is reversed, so to scale something down you give it a bigger number. To scale something to 50% you set the scale to be 2.0 instead of 0.5

Each bullet needs to be in it's own graphic declaration in TEXTURES. You're loading all the graphics into the M_SKULL1 graphic as patches which isn't accomplishing much, and then never showing it. Temporarily take out (or comment out) the ANIMDEFS lump and you will see that the scale is working.

example:

Code: Select all

graphic "M_BULL01", 75, 75
{
  xscale 2
  yscale 2
  patch "BULLET01", 0, 0
}

do this for all 24 frames, then use M_BULLxx in ANIMDEFS instead of BULLETxx
