ZAMN TC HALLOWEEN 2021 DEMO !!! file

The Halloween public demo is here! ^^

Sadly due to lack of time I had to cut some enemies by map 12 that needed more work , but all the progress and several bugfixes of the last 6 Patreon Demos is included and is quite a lot of content! ^^

There's also a build of LZDoom included which would work with 32x systems or older hardware as well ^^
You just need to launch it as a .pk3 if do you use it.


Happy Halloween! ^^

CHANGELOG SINCE THE LAST PUBLIC DEMO
(FROM NEWEST TO OLDEST)
----------------------------------------------------

+ "ZAMN_MAIN" (29th October, 2021) [HALLOWEEN 2021 DEMO!!!]
-------------------------------------------------------------

[ZAMN Core]
- Added the "Title Screen" Intro Animation in widescreen completely, including the Mode7 animation
which was cropped in the previous demos. It took some time and work to have it cleaned but here it is! ^^
- Improved the "Scoreboard Selection Screen" movement to work smoother.

[ZAMN Standalone]
- Included ACS Library "ACSUtils.acs" by Alexander Korshun and several contributors.
- Added a couple of dummy actors for pickups and items, so GZDoom Builder doesn't mark them as a missing parent actor.

[ZAMN Co-Op]
- Moved the player boxes closer to the player starting positions in each map, to reduce the displacement time and
prevent any incorrect interaction with other actors, due that the teleportation is not instant like in singleplayer.

[ZAMN TC]
- Map "Mars Needs Cheerleaders" added.
- Added Martians Chase/North enemies and spawn.
- Added a "culling script" which makes dissapear every 3D floor with the model sector tag of '404'.
Triggered by running the game in Software mode on the specified sectors.
To be used with caution as it can conflict with triggers, but it helps to improve performance a little.
- Simplified and revised maps to improve perfomance and fix glitches in Software mode, revised maps:
"Zombie Panic", "Evening Of The Undead", "Day Of The Tentacle", "Terror In Aisle Five", "Chainsaw Hedgemaze",
"Weird Kids On The Block", "Pyramid Of Fear", "Dr Tongues Castle Of Terror", "Titanic Toddler", "Toxic Terrors",
"Mushroom Men", "No Assembly Required" and "Weeds Gone Bad".
- Added level select preview animations for "Zombie Panic", "Day Of The Tentacle", "Evening Of The Undead",
"Terror In Aisle Five", "Chainsaw Hedgemaze Mayhem", "Weird Kids On The Block", "Pyramid Of Fear",
"Dr Tongue's Castle Of Terror", "Titanic Toddler", "Toxic Terrors", "Mushroom Men", "No Assembly Required",
"Weeds Gone Bad", and "Mars Needs Cheerleaders".
- Added a blue translation pallete to the Giant Pod (when hit).
The timing is slowed down to prevent eye strain.
- Fixed player's hurt sound overlapping causing a high volume sound.
- Fixed (hopefully) player failing to change from 1st to 3rd camera and viceversa.
Due to an oversight with changing flags not properly defined as strings.
- Tweaked Chainsaw Maniacs to break walls more frequently.
- Fixed Titanic Toddlers receiving damage from the Fire Extinguisher.
- Fixed SkullKey counter wrongly offseted on the HUD.
- Tweaked SodaCans pitch to be easier to hit the UFO boss.
- Fixed a bug in which the WaterRifle projectiles didn't hit the Doppelgangers at melee distance.
- Added a "SpeedShoes" Icon for when the item is active.
- Reworked the sound in the TitleCards animations to prevent
a recurrent bug with the sound not working between versions.

+ "ZAMN_MAIN" (18th September, 2021) [Hotfix Demo!!]
-------------------------------------------------------------

[ZAMN Standalone]
- Custom Pallete added, with some empty spaces for future use, his principal use is for base colors of the monsters
that are going to use pallete translation, and a balanced set of colors have been included as well to add more texture
support in software mode.
Still wip, there's room for 40 more colors depending on the future necessity of the future map tiles/palletes.

Secret Bonus pickups so a level can't have both a SecretBonus and a EasterEggBonus
destination at the same time.

while having the effects of the Red Goo on the player.
Also the GooIcons and a timer appears on the HUD similar as the monster potion.

taking them into account it wasn't noticed until now.

between states due to inheritance

+ "ZAMN_MAIN" (30th April, 2021)
------------------------------------

[ZAMN Core]
