thx god,finally able to play ultimate doom without Doom high resolution texture pack
There is a bug that when you get hit sometimes the screen goes quickly white
Also i like the gl sprite
Not a bug. Thats the damage indicator when you have armor. When you don't have armor you get blood on the screen
Amazing mod, just discovered looking for updates on D4D. Haven't downloaded yet, but from the trailers I see the lost souls scream are the gore nest scream sound really, would you put the lost soul scream sound later?
If i ever find it, sure, I will change it. I have looked all around for that sound, but nope; that's why Im using it.
Dont expect this one to be like D4D. This one is much more streamlined, no menus nor configurations of any kinda. IMO, it plays much better because it's so straight to the point
I'm playing this new mod with a beta wad called Counterattack Doomworld.com, Men it is pretty insane, first level with 900+ enemies at normal:max monsters difficulty. First thing I noticed was that thing you said, this mod is more straight with no menus or configurations. And with multiplayer!I love the new sprites for pinkys, barons and hellknight, they are more fitting with the sprite design of core game. Other thing I noticed is the missing of the burst and vortex rifle. That 2 weapons will no longer be in future versions? Not even on multiplayer? What about the reaper from bloodfall dlc?
Have you ever thought about doing a mod like this but with sprites for the Doom 3 weapons? I know that there are Doom 3 weapon mods already here on moddb, but they're just rips from Doom 3. It'd be cool to see Doom 3 weapons in sprites like what you guys have done for the Doom 2016 weapons.
Not really. I dont particularly like the doom3 weapons, design nor sounds. I did revamp the mod "super doom 3" by doomero quite a few years ago. But that was that.
These blood effects are a hell of a lot better than in MetaDoom
ackspace heh, i played too little of meta doom to notice the blood effects, but thanks for the compliment :D
Is it just me or are the upgrade drops unbalanced. I played level after level after level and the only upgrade I ever got was the pistol charge upgrade, but that one about 3 times per level.
SoundOfDarkness mods are rare. And they are monster specific. It's very common to find the pistol upgrade because the zombiemen who drops it are the most common enemy in the entire game. All the other upgrades do drop, but again they're rare, and this is on purpose.
And even then, usually halfway through a megawad i already acquired 90% of all mods/upgrades. Just don't expect to find everything by the 3rd map you play in a row.
Ok, I thought the drops were random and not enemy specific. I don't play any megawads because I didn't find one that I really liked. Only the "Hell on Earth" starterpack that comes with brutal doom but even there I only like the first 10 maps.
Do you plan on making a full DOOM 2016 player sprite? I've seen your recent YouTube video and noticed that the hands where the 2016 version (which looks cool) I know an artist made them for this mod, but is he going to make a full player sprite?
zandronum can't launch it
