Hello community! It is my pleasure to present part of my collaboration to a mod already made by author Thetis, called Wrath of Cronos, a great RPG mod for Hexen, which can be played in Doom style. The author officially left it at version 3.1.4 I humbly made my contribution to this great imprint with some additions that I hope you like. Welcome! IMPORTANT NOTE: This mod works from version GZdoom v4.11.3 as the latter incorporates flags that are used in the current release.

I found 2 bugs:
1: Divine Intervention's actual skill point requirement is less than the description.
2: Sometimes at the first couple of character levels, suddenly the level becomes two digits without any benefits.
Thank you for all the work.

Thanks for commenting and reporting those bugs, that's how we make this mod grow.
I'm willing to fix the requirements, it's simple.
But about the 2nd bug, I would like you to show me more details. With which class it happened to you, in which circumstance, between which character levels it happens etc.
I've played a lot of both styles and it never happened to me, I'd appreciate more details of what happened. Thanks.

Thank you for fast response.
2nd bug happened again and again. It is not about being low level, I was mistaken about that. I am positive that it happened to my cleric. Not sure about mage and necromancer with which I also play.
From what I gather, I think it happens after a combo reward. Sometimes instead of giving an xp reward, it gives a huge level reward without any gains of level advancement. I don't know if it gives levels equal to monsters killed or the xp gained for that combo.
Also it may be about afrit queens; because that bug always happened while fighting with a crowd that involved at least an afrit queen. It may be a coincidence but maybe afrit queen's damage or loot has an impact.
The bug happened too many times but I always notice it some time later, because in the heat of the battle I usually don't check my level.
I hope this helps and thanks again for these wonderful updates.

particular? Any wad attached?
Have you played my previous versions? Does it happen in this 3.3.1 only? It's strange that it happened to you often.

It happens with multiple wads. For example BoxOfAThousandDemons_RC2 and some Obsidian generated wads. It just happened again in an obsidian wad with my cleric in the heat of a battle after a 33 kill combo (also involved with a couple of afrit queens) my level jumped from 39 to 82.
Unfortunately I didn't test your previous builds. I recently got back to playing WoC after noticing your version.
With my playing pace I believe I will get more specific information.

I found the problem my friend.
The bug was clearly caused by the Afrit Queen. But it wasn't the monster itself, but rather its clone. That clone had a "flag" that caused the bug (strangely enough):
-INVULNERABLE
Removing this flag solved it... I discovered it by testing all kinds of things.
Now I have to upload the fix and a couple of other things I added that I was planning to upload later, but this bug fixed, so it deserves to be uploaded now.
We'll be checking anyway, but any other problems, report them to me.
Thank you very much.

Note: regarding the Arcane Barrier, I'll look into it.

Unfortunately it happened once more with the new patch for my Hunter while fighting against 4 Afrit Queens

(That Guest was me. I signed up for modDB just to review this mod)
I meant it happened again in 3.3.1(B)Release.2
I didn't notice the 3rd release yesterday; and now all my saves are gone again T_T
Is this version stable for some time for me to finish a couple of wads or should I not commit too much before a new release?

Hello my friend. Yes, unfortunately the Acs system is handled this way. Certain changes change the code and you have to start from 0. But the afrit Queen has been fixed. The cost is that, losing game progress. Now play quietly and report back to me if you have any problems.
From my side I tested all area attacks that are repetitive and constant damage (Deep Freeze, Divine Punishment, Noxious Trap, etc) because that's what generated that bug, and now it doesn't happen, I tested it in many ways.
If it happens again or it happens again report me with details again how it happened and what circumstances.
Otherwise I'll remove the Afrit Queen clones and add another skill and that's it.

Also can you make mage's arcane barrier effect not to cover the whole screen but the borders only?

What changed between release 3 and 5?

Resubmitted because a change concerning a description and the merchant was not recorded, as the new Dark Servant could not be purchased.
Don't worry, if you are playing a pack, finish it and then replace the patch so you don't lose any progress.
The afrit queen has been revised and no longer generates the bug.

Hello, I hope you are doing fine.
- I can't wait to try new Agility abilities. I also like armor restrictions.
- 3 Icons of Defender may be a bit too much.
- Afrit Queen bug still persisted on 331(B) albeit very rarely.
- After trying all classes on various wads with various settings my patience diminished a little, so I am playing short wads with 10x XP multiplier.
- Also I found a little mod called "m_gizmos", I bound a key for "throw junk" which is a 0 damage hitscan attack. Now I can activate hitscan switches in some wads where previously I got stuck without hitscan weapons.

Hi friend! thanks, I uploaded a higher quality iteration of those guns. Don't worry this iteration doesn't affect the module, so you can continue with the savegames without problems.
The Afrit Queen bug, it doesn't let me sleep, I try it a thousand times and it doesn't happen to me, since that time I fixed it, it doesn't happen to me.
I need you to tell me again how it keeps happening to you, what power you use, what weapons, etc. If not, try this new C version and if you still get the Queen error, please give me more details. Thank you!

Last time the bug happened with my Necromancer (Conjurer) with 4 summons, the queen was far away, I attacked it with Necromancer's 2nd weapon's second fire and 6th weapon's primary fire. My level raised from 40th level to 82th level.
It happened again to my level 38 Assassin while fighting with 3rd weapon's primary fire.
I tried but couldn't make the bug happen deliberately. While trying, I learned that every time a clone dissappears, the player gains XP, if there are too many clones around with multiple queens, cumulative dissappearence of clones cause a killing spree bonus of hundreds of combos.
Nevermind. It has maybe something to do with my additional mods (SimplePlayerinfo SimpleLevelinfo SimpleCrosshairhp hellscape-navigator gearbox flashlight_plus_plus and PandemoniaPBRLiquids)

I have console summoned 10 Afrit Queens with the command console and also created 5 Divine Punishment light pillars to test. That time I reported the error to you, that showed what was happening as well as with all AOE damage types of constant damage like Deep Freeze as well.
Clones don't give exp, it's all weird, maybe it's your addons that are modifying something.
Since I theoretically fixed the bug it didn't happen again.
Try doing it yourself with these commands:

Summon Firedemonqueen

and help yourself with "God", "Give mana1 1000" and "Give mana2 1000".

Try this without addons, just doom2 and the Woc and then comment.

I couldn't reproduce it for now, sorry.
But I am intrigued about WoC actor names. How can I learn the console summon names of WoC monsters, items and especially accessories?

Use command "linetarget" aiming with the crosshairs. That way you will get the actor's real name. Regarding the accessories, I'll give you a list of their names later

Thank you,
I searched similar commands like "linetarget" and did some search on mod files with notepad and eventually I found a solution to get accessory names:
After "Summon AccessoryRandomSpawner" looking at the result of "Actorlist" command, I can find the newly summoned accessory's name at the bottom of the list.
