Thanks for the feedback ! I wasn´t expecting to return to it either :D. BTW, knowledge of the first part is not necessary. The story mentions all the crushial informations from the first game when needed.

No, the missing bow sprite is a mistake - thanks for letting me know. Before the release I did some manual cleaning to reduce the file size by removing unnecessary sprites and accidentally removed the bow sprites in the process without noticing. I have updated the download with a fixed version.

Well, we shall see where the project will go. It´s either now or never.

As I announced a while back I am leaving Doom community. As a goodbye I am releasing unfinished project data from projects I cancelled in the past for historical/archival purposes. Today it´s Phantom of the Opera. Next time it will be Shadow over the Pathoras II.

You got it wrong. This mod doesn't take place in Parthoris. It has nothing to do with Heretics story/universe. The name is similiar(I
got inspired by it) , but that's about it.

The pistol is one of the few things the main hero "brought" with himself from his world - it is supposed to be like that. It may look op, but the ammo is rare and the player can only carry 64 bullets max (which is 8 magazines).

As I wrote in the article, clips will be played during certain cutscenes/chat sequences (something like a close-up). This video is just a "tech" demonstration of the clip player. Like for example those clips shows Simon Buquet talking about the phantom. When you meet him in the opera cellar and ask him about the phantom (he saw him once) one of those clips will be played above Buquet´s dialogue texts (like a portrait). The film itself is in public domain since the 50´s due to a copyright error, so why not use it when there is an opportunity ?

Thanks. I agree, the hand is terrible, but it is the best sprite I could find :D The lantern is from Lasting Light if you want to use it in your version.

No, I don´t want to use it due to copyright reasons. The "new" theme is a cover of E1M1 track from Nitemare 3D created by Luke Jansen - Youtu.be.

Graphics is alright. I am missing character sprites for the phantom. I think, that the best base for him is Caleb from Blood.

He has (due to story events) 3 different versions - masked wearing a hat (Caleb´s one is okay, you can keep it in), masked wearing a cape(just remove the edges of the hat) and unmasked with no head covering. I think the best solution is to get rid of the guns in Caleb´s hands and then just change the head. The masked version of the phantom should wear some kind of a white/gray skull-like mask (like this : Imgur.com ). For the unmasked version I am not sure - it´s up to you - there is an example of his face from the 1925 film version for inspiration : I.vimeocdn.com.

What you think about it ? Would it be possible ? You have as much time as you need - I am not hurrying you.

Thanks for the interest - I really appreciate it. What would you like to do (maps, graphics etc.) ?

I recommend you to download the fixed version 1.0.1 - there was a nasty puzzle texture bug in the first mine

I am sorry for this delay, but I have semestral exams now, so I don´t have much time for modding. I do not know when it will be finished (2 more maps, testing) - at the end of February/ in the middle of march in the worst case. I do not want to rush it and release it with a ton of unnoticed bugs.
