Try loading this after War Rooster, i haven't really tested it, but since it's the same name, it should work.

Works for keeping the music playing with no monsters, thanks. I know the other stuff would need more than just a quick patch to deal with, maybe something for after the next major version if there's enough interest.

Honestly, if a custom titlescreen/menu and intermission screen are that much of an issue, you can just open it on SLADE and delete it, or load the mods that change said screens after the offending mod, instead.

That's the thing, the title screen and intermission for a lot of more recent weapon mods still override those of the maps no matter what order I load them in. I get why War Rooster's title specifically takes priority since it makes use of a titlemap, but even stuff that doesn't - like, say, Raging Bull - also overrides the map's title screen no matter what order I load them in.

Oh well, this is mostly on me for insisting on playing absolutely everything with certain weapon mods, I can live with it. All that actually gets in the way for me personally is the music being muted/replaced when everything's dead, and so far that's either an easy fix (the quick patch for War Rooster) or not a big deal (Raging Bull, Azuryte et al. only mute the music specifically with 100% kills, and not when there are no monsters in the first place like in a credits map).

For titlescreens, open the MAPINFO/ZMAPINFO and place two backslashes (//) on the following: TitlePage, CreditPage, InfoPage, TitleMusic and IntermissionMusic.

when ever I spawn, a revenant and a archville spawn then disappear. I think its a glitch? then on the first plutonia level a ridiculous amount of mancubi spawn.

Actually those are the hallucinations setting up their positions. If you stay in a position behind them, you'll notice that they'll appear from time to time. This is how they work:

First, the fake enemies will spawn on the map by an ACS script. Then, they'll be teleported to a very random position, which can be anywhere on the map. To avoid wall locking, they can traverse through walls, like ghosts.

Once they spot you, they start shooting, and disappear once finishing their animations, or when shot back, thus opening space for more and more hallucinations.

Hi, sorry for taking long.

You can visualize your ammo by pressing the "map" button!

Hitting the map key works like Cosmobyte said - there's also a handy universal hud mod you should check out.

Can we have an option to turn off the graves? Some grenades would be nice.
