a strife 'prequel', instead of starting straight into the action of killing an Acolyte, how about starting in a normal day in the town before it was corrupted, with jolly people (including the woman and children), running normal erans for people, as if it was a modern day FPS when you start out walking around and communicating with people, without weapons, and THEN the commit hits and Hell breaks loose.

Or like HL Blue Shift, play from other perspectives like Black Bird or escapee woman, or even an Acolyte.

Okay, after looking at the breadbagfly's brilliant sprite works in his own thread, i've came up with interesting idea.

The idea is when you pickup the weapon after getting the previous weapon, it'll be able to shapeshift into the weapon you got. Hear me out, The weapon you picked up previously can transform into another weapon you just picked up. And of course, they'll be divided by each slots and cannot pickup more if you have 2 weapons, you must drop one instead. And if you pickup the same one, it'll give you ammo instead. And i'm going to name this mod... Metalivolve!

Sadly, i'm kinda busy with netronian mod thing. So it would be wonderful and great if someone actually can make mod about this! After getting the original spriter's permission, of course.

Oh, also i've made those weapons more fancier. See those touches?
woops talk about late as fuck response, been sorta busy with hell lot else again somehow.

id still totally vote for this idea as its like the guns were secretly designed only for that purpose in first place, without me even noticing it. i still dont see idea like that laying around done otherwise lol, unless there has been a whole new wave of experimental mods in the couple of months span im not aware of

Dat date.

You start in a dark room. All you see is darkness. You hear something large approaching. It's echoing all over the room. You can't tell where it is coming from. You see nothing. It's loud. You die.
Next level is you... IN HEEEEEELL!

I think it'd be pretty cool to take the monsters and concepts of Doom, then move them into another period of time rather than "sci-fi future." A few mods have already done this (Cold As Hell, Fistful of Doom, Pirates!, etc.), but I think it'd be neat to set it during ancient times. Ancient China, feudal Japan, the Middle Ages, and so on. Limited firearms (if any at all), and the techno-inspired demons would use weapons closer in scope to the technology available at the time (imagine a Mancubus essentially being a mobile catapult, or a Revenant firing flaming crossbow bolts instead of homing rockets). Similarly, the player's weapons would reflect the times, too. Swords, bows, spears, things like that.

so I had this strange Doom dream, I ran out of ammo and was cornered, and I picked up some of the background decorations, such as the candle stick, a barrel and even unearthing a stalagmite and use them as weapons. And it gave me an idea, what if EVERY object in Doom was intractable? like if you are near it, it gives you an option to pick it up to hit monsters with or throw at them, of course the item would get damaged and unusable after a few times. Or you can just toss it around for the fun of it like in Serious Sam 2. Come to think of it, I believe a EDuke 3D mod did something similar with picking up objects. I think it would be a lot of fun. Heavier objects would make you move slower when carrying them such as the green/red columns. It's like in real life if you were in one of those doom maps and didn't have a weapon, you'd just grab something heavy and toss it at a monster or perhaps smack them with a torch pole. :D

Man, I've got so many ideas for new projects, I'm surprised I've managed to stick to one for so long now. But I'd really like to do a couple:

i) A "prequel" to Doom, set in the 40's, where a sinister cult opens a gate to hell. A hard boiled detective, the Cyberdemon BEFORE he got all messed up, Tommy guns, woooohooo111111!

2) A mission pack, like ID did for Quake I and II. As in if they had ever did the same for Ultimate Doom. Extra enemies, new weapons, two new episodes, all outsourced to some crazy up-and-coming developers. Oh and some ridiculous story to tie it all together.

After seeing the Preview in the "Off-Topics" section for DUSK... what about a demake of it in GZDoom / Zan 3.0? That would be cool as fuck (with some limitations of course...)

Ok, so i just got a very cool idea for a mod that i'd call Permadeath Doom. The idea is simple: if you die, ZDoom deletes itself (along with the IWAD).
Does anyone know how to do it?
