looks good

Edit: Release date?

[wildweasel]

Looks like there's an awful lot of weapons...

[HellCattX]

No release date as of yet, going to add monsters, like the wizard with dual shotguns ect.

Yes there is alot of weapons, but unless you use the give all cheat, your most likly not to find them all by the end of the episode.

[hugoroy]

wizard with dual shotguns

[Ichor]

Magic shotguns.

You need to put a lot of thinking here for balance and such so it doesn't turn out to be just a randomizer mod with a lot of stuff in it.

^ this

[HellCattX]

there are alot of things "planned" however doesnt mean it will end up that way or even close to the plan. Like i stated above, unless you cheat, you're most likely not to get EVERY weapon in the game. Lots dont spawn any ware, but are coded in, same with the ammo. Lots of these items are "treasure" that drops at a very low chance when u destroy a barrel. The Baddies that are going to be put in will have attacks close to the wand they're mimicking, and will have a low chance to drop that weapon once killed. A limiter is planned to make it so you can only have a limited amount of weapons at a time, however its not quite there yet. It will be kinda like ROTT, you have access to alot of weapons, just have to drop one to pick up anouther of its subtype.

I really don't see the problem with that; Heretic needs more fantasy-themed mods. It needs more mods, period!

[Cyanosis]

"HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA!"

MAKE IT STOP.

That's too many weapons.

Maybe if i finished this...

[The Ultimate DooMer]

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

MAKE IT STOP.

That's too many weapons.

fix'd

(ohwait wrong thread)

[TerminusEst13]

Too many weapons, yes. It's best to have them all in small batches that are coherent with each other, rather than tossing a bunch together.
If you HAVE to have that many weapons, why not separate them into classes? Like you did with your Corvus/Marine mod, have one person use the wands while another person uses the more physical weapons, while another person uses the gothic weapons.

If you just throw so many at a person, it's unbelievably likely that there'll A: Be overlaps with other weapons, and B: Clutter up the weapon space so people won't be able to get to the weapon they want in time.

[HellCattX]

If ya read what i write, A limiter is planning on being added, so you can only have 1 type of wand in its subclass, like one minor wand (slot 1) for example, and in order to pick up a different wand you need to drop your other one, That code is working in progress. So you will only have a MAX of 10 ( 1 - 0 key slots ) of weapons to use at a time. To make a class mod, could work, however, it wasnt the plan. Also all those weapons in the first video, do not appear like that, that was just done for the video to show its all there.

However here is a preview of the Shotgun Wizard.


He was the idea to add a useable shotgun to the wad, one of the many sheets i found in my heretic sprite pile.
