This mod is amazing! The only big issue I have with it is that there doesn't seem to be any way to manually reload. It's mapped to R in the options menu but pressing it doesn't seem to do anything. Unless I'm missing something?
Also it would be nice to have an options to reduce the view bobbing and center the weapons on the right hand side. They're not big issues though, just a suggestion. The mod really is phenomenal. I'm looking forward to having a full crack at it tomorrow.

I must admit I feel rather embarassed. Well, I did expect bugs, seeing as it was my first ever mod in a PK3 format, but I hoped to avoid them seeing as I made sure to play-test the entire thing, and everything worked on my end. Im not sure what has to do with it, maybe different GZDoom versions?
For example, the GZDoom crashing after killing enemies... I got no clue how that happened.

Don't get me wrong it's really impressive for a first mod.
EDIT: One last thing would it be possible to have a quick throw grenades with is too?

Heh, it's not my first mod. It's my first mod of this size.armymen12002003 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 27, 2024 8:35 am Don't get me wrong it's really impressive for a first mod.
My first batch of mods were Terrywads (yeah, I started out as a Terrywad maker back in 2014), then I had several wad ideas, until releasing MOTI in 2017. MOTI was a rather...small wad. It seemed big to me at the time, but in reality, it was rather small, only 10 or so short-medium maps, not to mention with ducttape-held together coding and ACS scripts.
Then I decided to do this mod; it's a HUGE endeavor, 30 maps, ACS and scripts that are more complex than anything i've done before, bigger maps, etc. This is my first mod of THIS size, so it's natural there might be some slips up.
Not gonna lie, I feel a bit ashamed for these bugs happening, but I think I might have the solution. I think the issues people might be having have to do with different GZDoom versions reacting to the mod differently than mine, I used GZDoom 1.8.2.0 if that helps anyone.

Yea it did work fine after I rebooted GZDoom though.

Sorry for double reply, but only now I noticed the grenades thing. I had this idea bouncing around in my head for a while, with three types of grenades to use (Standard ones, Flashbang ones that'd temporarily immobilize enemies, and Smoke ones that'd give the player temporary invisibility to the enemies as long as he stood in the smoke), but I didn't want to rip off BOA, plus I didn't want to overcumber the player with too much activatable equipment.

I see what you mean man.

Hi! Congratulations on the release, I've only played the first level so far but am eager to play more. However, there is one thing I wanted to report.
You say in the accompanying .txt file that you recommend playing with pitch shifting off, because it would get in the way of some of the audio tracks. This is understandable, but you can actually manually disable pitch shifting for specific audio files in SNDINFO. For example:
Cheers!

This disables the pitch shifting for the intermission screen sounds. You can just put in the names of the audio tracks that would sound bad via pitch shifting in there, and that would ensure they don't get the effect while normal sound effects would, allowing people who normally play with pitch shifting on like myself to play the mod as intended. I would also recommend applying this effect to alarm sounds as those also tend to sound pretty bad with pitch shifting when they loop.$pitchshift intermission/tick 0
$pitchshift intermission/nextstage 0
Cheers!

I just got information that one of the maps, E2M3 is unbeatable because I set a different key to one of the doors by an accident and never noticed it; in the sewers there is a wooden door that requires a "Yellow Key Card". It was intended to require a Silver Key instead.
Feel free to give yourself the yellow keycard via code (give yellowcarda) until I get started working on a v.0.1 version that fixes all the bugs people reported so far.
Sorry for inconvience.

Thanks for the information. I also heartily recommend applying a better reload mechanic as laid out earlier in the thread

Are there no weapons on Realm667 that use reloading with DECORATE? I feel like using that code as a base would be the easiest way to implement it.WojtTheDoomer2K wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2024 1:10 pm
I might need someone to help me out with this tbh; ever since I started programming in DOOM, I was unable to program such a thing.

I remember that when I asked him about the lack of the tactical reloads, he replied:
"a co do przeładowywania broni, to niestety, nie byłem w stanie tego zaprogramować, a nie chciałem kopiować kodu z czegoś, żeby nie było" ("and about reloading weapons, unfortunately I wasn't able to program that and I didn't wanted to copy from something"); Which is funny because he was already accused of making a cheap asset kitbash xd

Good news to everyone that wants to see manual reloading - starting february, im gonna start working on the patch, and it might include manual reloading!
I just had an eureka moment about how it could be possibly implemented, a simple script done using A_GiveInventory and A_JumpIfInventory commands, similar to the one the Dragunow SWD uses for the scoping mechanism.
Not guaranteeing it'll work out, but it's a starting point.
