[0.10.6] Gun Bonsai -- everything-compatible weapon upgrading

[anthraxthanasimos]

I tried to run GB, but this error pops up when I try to use any HUD. I did not have any issues before. What happened?

Are you running the dev builds of gzdoom?

Yes, Should not I?

[Enjay]

I haven't encountered the problem, and I've been using dev builds (including the one posted yesterday (21 Feb 2025)).

Then it's likely a mod you have loaded that's causing it.

Ugh. My weapon jitters whenever I used the Rapid Fire upgrade. It happens when you use either the **weapon sway** or **weapon tilt** or both added.

Do you mean you're using UniversalWeaponTilter_v1_0.pk3? You can disable "Offset Sprite when Strafing" to fix that.

I did disable "Offset Sprite when Strafing" , but the weapon sway still jitters. Either basic or injector

Oh I'm having that bug too. I'm on GZDoom 4.12. Not a deal breaker at all, but its there.

It is weird because I use the same wads. Could the loading order be a factor?

I'm trying to play the most recent version of the mod and it keeps throwing up this error message. It doesn't matter what version of GZDoom, it doesn't work with the program regardless. I tried downgrading the mod and that didn't work out either. I even tried launching without ZDL and it still didn't work.

Check your Gun Bonsai settings. Was able to replicate this by setting "XP Needed to Reach Level 1" to zero.

Just have it above zero and the error shouldn't replicate.

FYI, the default value for this setting is 1200.

Thank you for your reply. Because I am an uber noob, what setting should I change, please?

[anthraxthanasimos]

What's the difference between the " He shots" with the " explosive death" skill? Which one is better? Do they stack, or do they cancel each other?

HE Shots does a smaller explosion after every attack, whereas Explosive Death does a larger explosion when an attack kills a monster. They should stack. Hard to say which is better. I would say they both have thier use cases. I personally enjoy putting HE Shots on my shotgun weapons. Explosive Death I'll sometimes take if there isn't a better upgrade available.

[anthraxthanasimos]

Thank you for your reply. I love the domino effect of explosive death!
