Recreating the newschool Doom experience in the old quake engine. Basicly a moddable demake with strafejumping.

Description

Here it is, finally! Slayer's Testaments is complete and this is the 'full' release. Not necessarily 'final' though. Just nab the zip and extract into your Quake directory, a new mod directory sits right inside the zip! FTE and autorun launcher also included.

Figured it was better to finally put it up here rather than rely on a Google Drive upload, should have been here two months ago not long after that full release trailer video was uploaded. It's an order of magnitude bigger than TAG4, just as that was bigger than the prior release! Enjoy!

No this IS the google drive one, but the one thats up CURRENTLY - so if you got a google drive version from a link that no longer works, than this will have minor changes. Thats why I was using it for a while, ironing out bugs until it was sitting there for a bit without change.

Could you inform me on how to get dash to work?

Dash is in the controls menu, run is under gameplay options (I assume you mean 'always run') and the meathook is just a secondary firemode of the meathook SSG, which you must find in the world. You may just get a regular supershotgun for starters, depending on the level /episode.

Well technically you can only run one ir the other, as the launcher liafs up FTE while doing it trough STEAM loads up tye Kex engine. But most likely your DIR path is program files/steam/steamapps/common/quake so mod kd be unzipped in there, so it looks like .../quake/st_full - as long as it sits in wherever quake is by having unzipped it directly into the quake directiry.

Quick text, type impulse 9 in the consoke (~ key) so you get all the items, then try that stuff out.

1. Dash had to be manually edited in the cfg file.
2. After a glory kill, weapon changes, not the one I was using.
3. Does not save graphical preset and statusbar scale for next load.

Yes you need to own Quake, and unzip this directly into your quake directory. The mod folder and everything else that's needed to be in said Quake directory, sits inside the zip.

great mod, works well...i had to reconfigure the controls and i don't know if i did it right, but i downloaded the updates that are available in the options...the only problem i found was when i loaded a save game, the HUD disappears. Does anyone know the solution?

The updates could be screwing wth things, those are FTE updates not mod uodates and they tend to change the HUD from experience.
There's an opton somewhere to disable the updates but not sure what menu off the top of my head.

Great Mod!

Also btw, do you have plans for weapons? Doom Eternal have cut, but fully implemented animation and functionally wise Pistol weapon, it could be great addition for Eternal weapon roster, so 2016 roster have 2016 pistol, and Eternal roster have cut Pistol instead of 2016 pistol, just for variety.

I was thnkng abut that, too! Yellow "energy blasts" so it still doesnt use ammo, tho. But Bloodshot would haveta make that happen. And he's done with this as far as I know, so next update would just be more maps (and fortunately, custom monsters).

But if I could add that - along with the Hellshot, Reaper and other 2016 multiplayer mainstays - I would! Maybe I could try to reskin the pistol to grey and green, but code would need to be added still to make it all change depending on 2016 / Eternal game mode.

First of all, I thank you for sharing your work, it is simply amazing on many levels and worthy of being widely discussed and analyzed, a piece of art without a doubt, thank you very much.

Is there a chance to play with weapons from Doom 2016? exchange them for those of the Doom Eternal and vice versa?

First of all...this absolutely fantastic!!! Great work. I've been playing on Quadtouch with a gamepad and, It doesnt recognize the input, so it won't keybind the quick melee action to a button on the controller. 8bitdosn30pro. Also, I noticed that when you have more than just the pistol equipped it doesnt allow you to switch to fists.

I would really want to love this mod, but I can't. I love Doom16 and Eternal, but the lack of mods for them is problem. And then they make such a mod. Optimized, open to creativity, and making it possible to turn off glory kills.

First of all it buggy. A lot of bugs. Bugs begin when you try to configure controls. Then the player is faced with the fact that shoots may not be registered, jumps do not count, and the meathook does not work properly. You made more than 170 maps, but you couldn't polish the main base - it's weird.

The second is presentability. The game poorly explains its own rules and mechanics, as well it bad organizing the process of walkthrough and achievement. Here they just piled everything into one pile - dig in. There is no sense of walkthrough and achievement.

Third - monotonous and unbalanced. The first problem was perfectly solved by Doom 2016 SnapMap with its amazing visual scripting tools. And second: only routinefights are dumped on the player: more, here's more, and more. Kill everyone again. No variety or challenges. And with bugs the balance of hardcore in some places turns into hell.

I would wish to authors:
Fix bugs. Completely remove the upgrades for the player and weapons, making it default for everything. Normal integrate to turn off the glory kills mechanics. Make a normal organized menu. Make some kind of system of "beat" for maps. Some tick in the description of the map would be enough. Write a manual for players, how to use J.A.C.K. for example to create a variety of mods with their scenaroio, music and various game situations, and how to embed them in mod and share.

The reason for this mods I see is not to downgrade graphics, but to fix the problems of Doom16 and Eternal - different mechanics for different parts of the franchise, no mods, annoying udgrades and glory kills.

He fix almost everything, just need to polish a little.

Good points all around. Bloodsht12 be burnt out from programing, and I the un-burnable mapper never stopped. 😜 So I myself can't change some of the quirks - like double jump not doing it when youre partially off a ledge - unfortunately. That happens with the jump boots commonly found in more traditional Quae mods too tho, come to think of it.

Reply Good karma+2 votes

Maybe then cut off the double jump and give instead one long and high jump? And make control the jump with a dash and rune of control?

Also the game has problems with the feeling of walkthrough. Maybe instead of classic maps give the player an arena maps to survive? Devil Daggers for example. Give normal tasks and conditions so that I can feel that I have beat game. And not just pile a lot of maps into one bunch and it is not clear how to beat all this. For game to be popular, the gamers must try to master it on YouTube. I really think you should do something like Devil Daggers.

Or make a normal story and not just "shoot, run and kill them all for stats screen at the end". I really love Doom16 snapmap + snaphak. His tools allow mapper to do much more diverse and fun things instead just "run and shoot for the stats". Even I made something fun at this tool. I would like you to be inspired by this scripting system for the design of future maps.

I also want to add that Slayer's Testaments maps gave me a feeling from childhood. The game is very similar in style to old and forgotten hiddengem Heavy Metal F.A.K.K. 2

The start hub is organized the way it is for a reason. The main campaign is clearly the Slayers Testaments' 3 acts that are dead ahead. Start map was way was less organized prior, no text on the walls and more needless passageways for instance. The wave maps ARE the survival maps, and classic maps arent going anywhere. Quake isn't snapmap, and it's strength lies in fully freeform architecture vs its scripting. Plus, many people nabbing this mod played prior versions with less maps so having more in the start map makes sense.

Glad this mod does give you nostalgic ferlings! Try out the SpongeBob in the custom maps wing!

If fundamentals like double jump are to be changed, though, than might as well work on a new IP. But wait - that was the plan anyway! So stay tuned for that I guess.

No, you dont understand. I talked about feeling "beat the game". Its like Platinum at Sony PlayStation. Right now mod feels like "as you like - so play, I don't care".

>Glad this mod does give you nostalgic ferlings! Try out the SpongeBob in the custom maps wing!
Its not about nostalgia, its about art. Slayer's Testaments and Heavy Metal FAKK 2 have rare artstyle: lowpoly retro heavy metal hellmeat sets.
