Re: Vanilla Gunplay [Tactical Gameplay Enhancer] v2.3 releas
And again, I'm sorry for the belated update. IRL has gotten in the way for a little while, and I'd completely forgotten about this project.

Re: Vanilla Gunplay [Tactical Gameplay Enhancer] v2.3 releas
I really quite enjoy this but I kinda feel the plasma rifle is a lot weaker of a weapon than it used to be. I used to use it to kill heavy targets or in emergency situations but it's become more of something I use if I run out of bullets for the bullet guzzling chaingun which seems to fill its role instead. In other words when given the chance I almost never use it for any reason other than it feels kinda cool using a plasma rifle that doesn't have endlag like we're used to from vanilla.
I like the new rifle sprite and its new reload. Though, the end of the reload animation is disproportionately unsmooth and both it and the chaingun could probably use new sounds.
What if instead of making straight up homing rockets you make it so that you can slightly influence the path of rockets with alt fire? And rockets already in the air would turn SLIGHTLY (but enough to be quite useful for moving targets at long ranges) when you hold alt fire and point towards a direction.

Re: Vanilla Gunplay - v2.5.5 released!
Changelog 12/20/16 v2.6:
- Added Trent Reznor-created zombieman sounds: they'll now scream and threaten you in a language you can understand
- Added vanilla-style muzzle flashes to the assault rifle (credit to DoomRL Arsenal's creators)
- Added back the pistol- it's now an emergency gun found in Slot 1, that loads 12 bullets but has an infinite supply of reserve ammo, also a bit more accurate and shoots quicker.
- Former humans of all types now only chase the player for a limited period of time; eventually they'll break pursuit and go back to standing in place.

Re: Vanilla Gunplay - v2.6 released!
The new pistol is great fun to use. If you want reload animations for it maybe look at HXRTC? It has a reload animation for the vanilla pistol.
I feel the grenade's physics are really wonky. it's like having a delayed grenade launcher that shoots low grav bouncy rockets.
Lastly, the new zombies sounds are great. I suggest switching up the sounds for pain though as it sounds odd when you repeatedly hurt them with the pistol for example.

Re: Vanilla Gunplay - v2.6 released!
A few things and questions regarding the latest version:
- Chaingunner's death is incomplete - the animation stops with the gibs still in the air.
- The assault rifles dropped by zombiemen give a bit too much ammo, maybe reduce it to 5 or 10?
- Casings are silent - some sound effects would be nice.
- Will other enemies such as the super shotgunner and plasma guy come back?

Re: Vanilla Gunplay - v2.6 released!
I will be fixing the chaingunner bug for 2.7, and reducing the amount of ammo rifles drop.
As for casings, I am keeping them silent- I personally think it's incredibly annoying when you're firing a rifle or chaingun, and there's this constant jingling going on in the background.
Super shotgunner and former marine will definitely return. That'll also give a bit of use to the plasma gun- you'll find it sooner, after all, off of a dead former marine.
The grenade does feel very messed up to me, and I'll be experimenting with improving it.
Expect 2.7 to be out by the end of today.

Re: Vanilla Gunplay - v3.0 released!
I absolutely love this mod. This is vastly improved since the last build I had previously downloaded. Great work! This really is a lot of fun.
