Load with any Doom or Heretic iwad and pwads. Also works with Blasphemer and FreeDoom iwads. Optimized for LZDoom for Skill level 6 difficulty, and error free on GZDoom.
Changelog---
[spoiler]Nov 14 22--- Complete Overhaul in gameplay, reworked entire combat system. Now compatible with Heretic!!!
Specifically implemeted to take advantage of LZDoom Skill level 6 with Double Monster Spawns.
It looks much the same but each class plays a bit more unique. Upgraded monsters using
Mellow Heretic so the environment is much more BRUTAL.
1. Introducing the Stackable Armor system. Armors get stored in their own inventory and used automatically,
give 100% Health protection while they last. The Armors absorb all the damage so their armor values fall faster.
Chainmail-- 200 value-- green armor-- You can store 2 at a time.
Plate Armor-- 400 value-- Blue Armor-- You can store 2 at a time.
Holy Armor-- 800 value-- Megasphere-- used as soon as it is picked up.
Basic Armor Bonus add to a maximum of 200.
2. Items are now carried to far higher values between levels: Healing potions 8, 4 fairies, 4 Hylean Potions, 2 Wings of Flying
4 Cloaks of Invisibility. You can carry far more in level, but those are the maximum value for carried to the next map.
3. Classes and Affinity: All classes can use all found weapons but start with unique or useful sets. Most weapons have Altfire.
ALL CHARACTERS ARE IMMUNE TO BLAST RADIUS DAMAGE!!! This isa core mechanic!
I.SNES Mode- Fresh Link-- Shield reflects and deflects from the front and can stop Melee attacks too. Works well but has to be aimed
roughly centerd on crosshair. Crouching affords extra protection as well.
Hold Primary fire to do Sword Hold and release a AoE Attack
"Spin" attack(doesnt spin, just Good smooth, but basic animation cobbled togetherby me). Right Click for Boomerang.
II. NES Mode: Hero Link- Built to mimic Zelda 1 Style play, he holds his shield with most weapons. Shields all operate the same as Fresh Link.
He starts with the largest armory of all classes and is definitel the easiest to start on.
III. Baratus: Warrior-- Starts with a Fists
IV. Medihv :Wizard-- starts with Full Crystal mana, Magic Book that only he gets and Wizard Punch attack(no-altfire).
V. Shamino-Sorceror-.Starts with red Wand and Wizard Punch--- Ode to Corvus
VI. Clera: PaladinS Shield and Mace(Altfire is a free healing Spell and Shield works Same as Link.
4. Massive update to Monsters and Weapons resources via Bitter Heretic, Mellow Heretic, and BLASPHEMER.
5. Upgraded e3m8 fights of Doom 1 and Heretic to be 3 phase fights!

Title : DOZ- Doomed Over Zelda
Author : Kalensar
Misc. Author Info : Rabid Editor, and mod maker
Description : Monsters and Weapons pack
Info
===========================================================================
This is for Doom 1 , Doom 2, and Heretic. It's inspired by Legend of Zelda.
No Nintendo resources were used in this production.
DOZ- Doomed Over Zelda is an overhaul of Medieval Doom. Practically everything has been overhauled in one form or another,
and custom monsters and weapons have been added from Realm 667 and tweaked by myself to give the best feel possible.
The evil Ganohn has taken control of "insert whatever" and it is your
task to fight off the army of evil full of Moblins and other strange magical enemies. You have 5 classes to choose from.
AUTHOR NOTE: --- My Advice: Enable Jumping,. Break every barrel you come across because they are basically Loot Chests. The Staff altfire is a Healing Spell that can heal you up to 200 health max. . Just drag and drop the newest version. This mod works with any map sets that run vanilla monsters and weapons. Bind Inventory Buttons so you can use the Inventory Items.
CLASSES AND STARTING WEAPONS:
I.SNES Mode- Fresh Link-- Shield reflects and deflects from the front and can stop Melee attacks too. Works well but has to be aimed
roughly centerd on crosshair. Crouching affords extra protection as well.

Lagi Gives express permisions to use his material! Which is majority base of this project.
This project is wide open for use as reference, learning, and material use for purposes of expansion or reuse or for whole new projects. This is a product of open Doom Community assets and follows the FREEDOOM/Blasphemer/Lagi ethos of use what you like.
Accidentally had the giant Maulotaur spawning where he shouldnt be. I'm sure he didnt like getting his head stuck in the roofof some buildings. Problem fixed
Had to do a minor but necessary fix to the E3m8 fights of heretic and Doom 1. Both are now unique to their own IWADs And are much less dangerous that what I originally uploaded. That said, they are not easy, BUT different.
Doom e3m8 ( or anything with a Spider Master) will still Spawn the same at start and proceeds into a different order of a 3 phase fight.
Heretic e3M8 is now a 4 Phase fight!!! Its definitely the harder of the 2, but manageable.
Gauntlets are now a Flame Wave Alt-fire same as a Maulotaur. Absolute trash on Ganon monsters, but will roast all the smaller stuff pretty nice.
