is there a monster health modifier?

[ninjapony]

I'm playing doom with real guns hardcore but I feel like the enemies die too quickly. Is there a way to increase their health something like 200% so they take more hits?

Edit the wad

[ninjapony]

The Doom2 wad? the Mod i'm playing with is here https://sites.google.com/site/realgunshardcore/home

it's a .pk3 file.
If I do edit the wad, what's the best editor to use?

Slade3.

I think editing the playerclass to give you a PowerDamage powerup that halves all your DamageTypes (and there's probably a bunch of them) and lasts infinitely in the Spawn/See state is a far easier solution.

That sounds great. So I use SLADE to open Doom2.wad, and create a custom powerup which halves the DamageTypes to be given at spawn? I'm messing around in slade right now

Oh for the love of christ do not edit doom2.wad ever. Make it in a new WAD or PK3. Never, ever edit stock IWADs (SLADE 3 will actually refuse to in SVN builds).

I'm sorry to bring up an old thread but could someone point me in the right direction, internet guides on modding doom (for specifically what I want to do), what program to use (i'm assuming SLADE) and which file to modify?

Create the craziest skill that suits your needs :)

Edit : Dunno about RGH maybe it has a mapinfo you'll need a modified version of.. Also like Ijon said NEVER touch an iwad with the intent of modifying anything and always have a few copies of them just in case... in fact don't touch rgh unless you want to be kicked from servers before you even join!

Monster health modifier doesn't work in Zandronum.

Sorry I didn't know because I remember a stupid wad that was a rip off of 1000 monsters and had like 20 skills in it :(

[ninjapony]

so creating a new skill wont work?

edit: found mapinfo for RGH. guess i'll try and edit it! TerminusEst13 is right, it doesn't work with zandronum :(, but it works with zdoom

... Isn't there a cvar that exists for this exact purpose? I could've sworn SNS sometimes used it.
