Articles - Rabid Shotguns mod for Doom II

This is my shotgun mod. You might have noticed I've been going gradually through all the weapons and monsters and giving them the Rabid treatment. I took the shotguns from Brutal Doom 64, including the sparks, smoke effects, etc. and added in a few new things from other mods, so credit for the base for this goes to SgtMarkIV. I also added back the Super Shotgun's original Doom 64 recoil so that you move backward just a little bit when you fire it, and attached dynamic lights to the guns and their impact zones. It includes pickup sounds, weaponup sounds and ricochet sounds from Beautiful Doom/Cosmetic Doom, decal effects from Complex Doom, water splashes from Brutal Doom proper and the zooming function on the regular shotgun from BJD20. Finally, I gave the sprites high res frames via a mod created long ago by Pimpuigi and Hellbound Hillbilly. I just might have outdone myself here--from the shoulders of giants, of course. Press T to "zoom" the shotgun and Y to unzoom.
