A Star Wars/Dark Forces themed gameplay mod for GZDoom. Taking elements from both Star Wars cannon and legends. Replaces all weapons, enemies and items with Star Wars themed assets. Gameplay is changed quite a lot, but attempts to keep some of the balance of Doom. Most projectiles are 3d models of Star Wars blaster effects. Infighting is also rare and usually only happens between imperials, aliens and bounty hunters (they won't attack their own team). The Icon of Sin is also replaced with a more traditional boss enemy, Emperor Palpatine. You can play as Kyle Katarn or Mara Jade and find lightsabers and unlock force powers, or you can start off as a Jedi. You can also go without the force and play as a rebel trooper or smuggler, each with their own starting weapons, or even go adventurous as the Mandalorian armed with a wrist launcher that boasts several different abilities. You can also customize your experience by changing enemies to different factions, and loading optional add-ons.

Loading the mod with Zandronum, and GZDoom didn't work. Help?

This mod is not compatible with Zandronum unfortunately. Not sure if I'd be able to make it work with it because Zandronum uses an outdated version of DECORATE coding.

Older versions of GZDoom probably won't work either. Did you update GZDoom before running the mod? Let me know if that's the problem or not.

There is an item that spawns with the invisibility sphere called the HyperSpace transponder. It mostly uses the code from Strife, but it summons the friendly rebel troopers you speak of.

You can also summon a rebel through the console with "summon RebelTrooper"

UPDATE: 10/5/2019
-New enemy: XR-85 tank droid (sprite by: edgymemester), spawns with Mancbus. They shoot turbo laser blasts at you and behave more similar to the mancubus than their Zero-G counterparts do (so I think they add more balance in maps)
-Boba Fett now spawns with Pain Elementals again (found this more balanced than the Mancubus spawner)
-Jumpjet enemies (Zero-G, Phase-2) no longer take falling damage
-Dark jedi have reduced falling damage
-Concussion rifle is less over-powered
-Assault cannon plasma does small radius damage (won't hurt player)
-Touched up a few sprite alignments
-Updated DarkHour and SpaceWars compat patches (separate download)

-New upgrade weapon: Disruptor rifle upgrade from sniper rifle, twice the power for primary fire and you can charge with alt-fire for a more powerful blast
-Sniper rifle alt-fire damage redone; start of the beam is stronger than end of beam, but it is less overpowered overall

I do wish there were console commands that give you all the force powers, because I tried give all it didn't work. My reasoning why I want this?
Sometimes you just wanna relax and be a jedi out of the getgo

Try "give unlockforce 3", that should automatically give you all force powers. You can also summon "chainsaw" or "LightsaberSpawner" a few times too.
