Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
As for the proximity mine, i heavily suggest to make it shootable.

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
I concur. That would even the meaning of booby trap - Before the enemy breaking through the trap, you shoot at it and then it's a complete foolproof.
Oh and btw, MP7's firing sound effect gets cut off by its reloading sound. And about the Railgun, i found it rather interesting that the pickup sprite is very large and would smoke the whole screen when i'm firing while aiming.

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
I thought weapon sprites are fine as they are? What flaw they have, specifically? The Animation? Fuzzy pixels?

yes they are fine but assault rifle has a bit of pixels in it rest of them look smoother especially the combat shotgun, like i said this mod is good with or without polishing some weapons it has so i am not gonna stop playing it either wayCaptain J wrote:I thought weapon sprites are fine as they are?

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
Very cool mod, I really enjoyed the slide function ^^
I just wonder why is the handguns held side ways? It looks really weird. but maybe it is supposed to look like that ^^
Also some weapons feel weak like the double barrel shotgun and should be buffed aswell as the handguns.
In my experience weak weapons becomes extremely boring to use, but buffing them so they are just under overpowered makes the same game suddenly very fun to use

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
ohh I'm really glad to see new comments in here!
as for the damage value, yeah, I can tweak that. However, for fast-firing weapons such as the MK 23, I can't increase the damage too much considering how thin the "Under OP to actually OP" line is. Of course, I can try new re-balance and all, expect news soon!
And yeah, I'm not happy with the sounds for the MP7 either. Will probably revamp it's sound design in the next version
The MK 23 is held "sideways" as a tactical system called "Center Axis Relock". It helps a lot with recoil control and is very useful in CQB situations - which most of the typical Doom are set inJosko wrote:Very cool mod, I really enjoyed the slide function ^^

I'll see what I can do about this, I can't promise much though.

Yeah, pretty much. The bolt closes offscreen, actually. I should work on new visuals anyway since the overall MP7 sprites look kinda smooth compared to the othersWivicer wrote:I'm not sure I understand what's happening with the mp7 reload when the gun is empty. It looks like she jams the magazine in and then just holds it there for a bit?

Consider it done, now Proximity mines are shootable! At least on my dev build of the modCaptain J wrote:I concur. That would even the meaning of booby trap - Before the enemy breaking through the trap, you shoot at it and then it's a complete foolproof.

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
I'd say the damage on the MK23 is pretty much perfect. Its ROF makes up for the lower damage. Buffing it would also mean that you'd need to buff the DEagle (so having the DEagle would still have sense, as it's supposed to be the stronger handgun), and that's overkill. It's just right as it is, imo.Endie wrote:as for the damage value, yeah, I can tweak that.

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
This is really cool, though that camera effect, I don't know what to call it, but it pushes your aim back left when you aim right and vice versa, that's super awkward and uncomfortable. Is there any way to turn that off? I didn't see an option for it in the Camera menu.
Edit: Ahah. Nevermind, I'm a dumb, I found it. It was the "real aim function", for anyone else that needs to know.

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
Yeah, indeed. I was about to reply you, but glad you solved the issue. Anyway you also can toggle the ratio(Speed, Angle, Intensity and etc) on each tilting section at Tilt++ Options to make it less intense, but still maintained.
Now it make me wondering, is toggling the real aim function ratio, strong to weak possible?

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
Having played a bit more, I can see myself playing this a LOT. The smoothness of the animations, and the weapon sounds are all great. I love the quick melee, and making the grenade recharge is also really neat. The pistol using the center axis relock is something I've never seen before in a game and it's super cool. Though the ADS sprite is off to the left just a little bit, and as far as I've seen it's the only one not perfectly lined up with the crosshair.
I did see that. Movement and turn tilting are a bit too odd feeling for me, but I left strafe tilt on.Captain J wrote:Yeah, indeed. I was about to reply you, but glad you solved the issue.

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
I literally had to make an account just to post that I absolutely LOVE this mod and the way it handles gunplay. The base shotgun feels super powerful and really crisp, the starter pistols feel snappy and responsive, the movement options are REALLY strong in like, the best way possible
This is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Definitely going to be eyeing this with great interest in any future updates!

Re: Hellrider v0.8b - Swift demon killing!
Finally. Some good fucking food.
Also, the bullets for the railgun/gauss cannon don't have proper transparency, so you might want to look into that.
So far, this is amazing! Can't wait to see more of it.
