A Fancy 400 lbs posted:So, I just downloaded the DoomRPG launcher and the launcher just crashes on startup. .NET 4.5 or higher installed, launcher in my gzDoom folder, main download DoomRPG wads and stuff in a DoomRPG subfolder in the gzDoom folder, that should all be correct, right? Hmm did you find a fix for this? I got the same problem (Win 7 x64).

True, Quake 4 was alright, should give the other two a shot. Brink was a really weird effort but had moments of good fun.

Quake 2 spawned Action Quake 2 and that poo poo was straight up fantastic on a 28.8k modem when you were 13 years old.

Tippis posted:HL's problem, I feel, is that in trying to actually present some pacing, it goes too far in the opposite direction: the set pieces that are meant to slow you down and offer some calm between the storms are too elaborate — it's always one or two buttons too many to push and one too many closed doors you have to bypass in some contrived manner. As mentioned, it was the first step that set the stage for what was to come. It was a vast improvement of what had come before, but not even GabeN gets it right on the first try. By HL2 and the episodes, they had made huge strides in balancing action and calm, as well as in offering different means of delivering both. I'm not sure I'm following you here, you think that the original HL had too lengthy interruptions in the flow? For me HL2 was way worse in this regard, when you have to stand around and pay attention to NPCs droning on about something or other. They really should have made that crap skippable on subsequent playthroughs.

Some wikipedia stuff about the Delta Force devs and the engine. Like most 90's FPS stuff the technology was interesting.quote:Comanche was also the first commercial flight simulation based on voxel technology. NovaLogic used the proprietary Voxel Space engine developed for the company by Kyle Freeman [7](written entirely in Assembly language) to create open landscapes.[8] This rendering technique allowed for much more detailed and realistic terrain compared to simulations based on vector graphics at that time.[5] quote:The original Voxel Space engine was patented in 1996, and first released in software in the 1992 release Comanche Maximum Overkill. The engine was then revamped into Voxel Space 2, and later Voxel Space 32 and used in Armored Fist 3 and Delta Force 2.

Someone should use that to build a really hellish Tricks and Traps, where you constantly think you're back in the starting area... And then someone should beat it with a pistol start anyways

Woolie Wool posted:Modes of Destruction has been updated to version 0.4 with two new weapons, an optional HUD based on Blue Shadow's NC HUD, and a whole host of in-game options. Also you can swing a chainsaw like a sword and kill up to nine enemies at once to slake the thirst of the Blood God. Played a bit of this on BtSX for the first time and it's pretty solid! One thing it does is a personal pet peeve of mine, which is how the recoil doesn't reset the aim back down after firing. Anyone else irrationally annoyed by small stuff like that?

I think Quake did it to give people a chance to get used to the controls before they were confronted with enemies. Things like having to jump to select Hard made sure you knew it was actually possible to jump, unlike Doom. It's sort of a precursor to the Half-Life tram ride. Also I'll take it any day over 10 minutes of unskippable tutorials on how to duck.

hosed around a bit with Project Brutality and it seems like a pretty fun addition, but for some reason there's a camera / viewport tilt when you strafe that isn't present in base gzdoom or Brutal Doom v20... the documentation and menus don't have anything related to it as far as I can see, anyone know if there's a cvar that toggles it?

JOs multiplayer was extremely sweet, especially because it mixed the FPS crowd, the third person melee crowd and the Star Wars geek crowd. In each of these small subcommunities, you'd have people who took themselves way too seriously, which was where the fun started. I remember joining this DM server with two friends where we'd picked the same skin so we could spot each other, and levelled Force Grip all the way up to max. When one of the noble Bespin residents tried to hunt one of us down, the others would Force Grip him behind a pillar or ledge until the spell timed out and then another would take over and reposition them behind an obstacle until they died. The amount of nerd rage this generated from these people was nothing short of amazing, you'd have people switching skins to match and try to avoid the Grip, or try and organize the rest of the server to band together against the nefarious dark side.

Some time ago I asked whether it was possible to disable the camera roll / tilt on strafe in Project Brutality. It turns out it is, and as I guessed doing so fixes the small super annoying stutters that happens when you strafe ie. all the time. If this is annoying you, open the projectbrutality.pk3 with 7zip or WinRAR or something, and edit the LOADACS file. Find the strafetilting line (should be line 17) and comment it out. Thanks to some guy on the ModDB project page comments, would have been nice with a proper forum but oh well that's the fix.

Hi guys I'm more or less done with my DUMP3 map, if any of you have time to give it a quick spin I'd appreciate it. Here's the link. Edit: Uploaded the file before I touched it in SLADE, might be less hosed. I tried to add some music with SLADE. Importing the file, HighVolt.mid, then creating a MapInfo entry that looks like this: map (MAP01) "CLOVERHOUSE" { next = "EndGame1" music = "HighVolt.mid" } But none of this seems to work. I'm probably not adding the entry the right way, I'm guessing. Also I can't seem to get it to load directly into the map when setting it first in the ZDL load order, I have to type "open clvrhaus.wad" in gzdoom. This is probably noob poo poo 101 but if you know how to get it working that'd be nice Actual map stuff: First map ever, difficulty / pacing / gameplay might feel off, but should be sorta okay.

Cat Mattress posted:If it's a wad file, the extension will not be kept (lumps don't have extensions), so music should be just HIGHVOLT. I had another go at it but it doesn't really seem to want to eat the MapInfo that I feed it, when I finish the map it says Unnamed but I can't tell if that's supposed to be defined here in MapInfo or somewhere else. On the other hand, I got the music working by having the music lump present and having a tiny OPEN script that has a SetMusic("HIGHVOLT"); line. The midi quality even worse than I first thought  Also thanks for the help everyone!

Combo-postin' like it ain't no thang OK guys, sorry for all the pissing around with console commands, here's a revised version with some (most?) of the feedback incorporated. You should be able to just drag and drop that on your .exe of choice and it should go to the map when you select your difficulty. Christ I need to look for another soundtrack.

Temin_Dump posted:Hey there. I made a wad for DUMP 3 As well. I posted it on the ZDoom forums, but I figured I should put it here as well. Really cool experience and the main stage and draw of the curtain were inspired. I'm couldn't really tell if I was meant to be jumping a lot, it seems like a lot of the pickups are on raised surfaces that require jumps but I also managed to finish without the yellow skull, but I think those doors were meant to be exits only or at least secondary to the blue skull ones. Good map!

The scale of the map is crazy in a good way. I had fun playing it and also enjoyed the almost MAP01 chainsaw secret. I really enjoyed the secret super shotgun on the "church" but I think I got the regular one immediately afterwards. Also, was teleporting out onto the bridge meant to be a secret? I thought you had to go that way to get the yellow skull but maybe I did something in a weird sequence.
