[WIP] Astrostein Redux v2

[Sgt. Shivers]

Astrostein Redux is (currently) a weapons mod for zDoom intended for use with Laz Rojas' Astrostein series. It replaces the original dehacked weapons with new DECORATE weapons, for example the shotgun is replaced with a plasma mp40.
I plan on redoing the enemies and bosses as well, but that will be more difficult as the 3 different Astrostein games have seperate enemies. Suggestions for the mod are welcome.

UPDATE: The enemies that are the same in each Astrostein have been coded, and have fancy new death animations. Which Astrostein should I make the unique enemies for first? Astrostein 1, 2 or 3?

Good luck with this. I've always really liked the Astrostein games. An inspired mix of Wolf and Doom to be sure. Can't wait for the finished mod.

I'm a big fan of the Astrostein series and any project related to this is a good new. So YES, I need what's you are planing to do

[niculinux]

[Alexis06]

The Astrostein series also needs musics !

[Tormentor667]

Very cool - and Alexis is totally right btw!

Good idea! What do you have in mind? Maybe Techno/Metal music?

Maybe some techno remix versions of original wolfenstein musics ?

OR classical musics like beethoveen, Chopin, Mozart, etc... would fit perfectly with the space nazi theme. (The best space movie, "2001 A Space Oddysey", is using classical musics as theme)

Wagner along with some wolf remix stuff could be good.

lol u beat me 2 it i was gonna do something like this lol

That would be more apropriate yes, I agree with that.

By the way, I'd suggest putting all 3 episodes in one wad and with MAPINFO having the choice to choose one episode at startup - and even play all three of them in a row. Don't forget to include "The Portal" btw, it's an interlude to Astrostein afaik.

got a question regarding the enemies are the enemies gonna be blake stone based?

crap, i just missed your thread all time ago. so i just add a book mark for it, great job!

well, sorry about another critics...again, it's pretty lack of sounds. also few weapons needs a better polishes. specially energy panzer sure does a OP damages and splashes either. so i'll send my version of yours with PM when i wake up if i had to. it's dawn already.

also i can give you a hand if you really want to polish those enemies realistic as grammar nazis.

I'm probably gonna keep the original astrostein enemies, but I'll add decorate coding and some extra stuff.

Considering each of the astrostein games have different enemies and scenery, this could be a bit difficult. It might happen, but so far it looks like I might have to make each enemy/scenery replacement seperate for each game.

I've already remixed a couple wolfenstein 3d tracks to a more fitting techno theme and if you've found a song that you think would fit send it to me.
