Beautifully Brutal Doom ZD v8

#1

Post by ForrestMarkX » Fri May 10, 2013 10:04 pm

UPDATE: Since the old system of Beautiful doom was super strict I have now made it basically a addon for Brutal Doom that replaces it's weapons with Beautiful Dooms, still keeps that Doom feel and makes those who are accustomed to Brutal Doom happy

This is a port of what I think is Brutal Dooms cousin from being GZDoom only to being Zandronum compatible, it has all it's default features from it's GZDoom version, Multiplayer also works rather well. I did this conversion to get myself situated with what is compatible with Zandronum and what isn't since I can't find anything anywhere that tells what version of ZDoom it uses.

I have gotten permission from Jekyll Grim Payne to do this port as long as I don't add anything. If I do then I must rename it to something else other then Beautiful Doom.

What exactly is this?
[spoiler]Another mod which should enhance Doom. Actually, there're many such mods,
but I decided to pay more attention to moments which are often forgotten:
smooth weapon animation, new sounds, etc. I slightly enhanced weapons,
but I tried to follow the idea "still Doomy, just better".

The mod, however, consists of three separate modules: WEAPONS,
MONSTERS and OBJECTS. They can be used together or separately or in
partial combinations with other mods and wads. What is inteteresting is that
these effects mostly can be turned on/off any moment with included script
functions bound to buttons (check OPTIONS to see them).

WEAPONS (BDoom_Weapons.wad) contains reworked weapons: they have smooth
animation, new sounds, new graphics for Plasmagun and Chainsaw, empty
casings, smoke, enhanced bulletpuffs with ricochet and four slight
modifications:
1. Fist doesn't alert enemies.
2. Pistol firerate is faster (1 shot per 12 tics instead of 14 tics).
3. SuperShotgun makes dual shot with primary attack and single shot
with secondary attack (if one barrel is empty, primary attack reloads it).
4. Chaingun has an alternative attack with twice as fast firespeed, but it
requires spinning at first and cooling after.
There some other enhancing effects. In addition ammo is replaced to add new
pickup sounds.
Player is also changed: he's higher (normally in Doom the player is too small).
Berserk replacement is included, because it's necessary for the new Fist.
This wad also contains enhanced blood.

MONSTERS (BDoom_Monsters.wad) contains enhanced monsters and effects. There
is extremely enhanced blood and animated blood decals, extreme gore effects
that allow minor monsters to be ripped apart, and these pieces can be
thrown around. There are enhanced projectiles with different sprites and smoke
trails for most monsters, ArchVile's and Lost Soul's fire is made of particles.
Monsters with guns drop empty casings, some of the monsters have additional
death animations.
Most of these effects, however, can't be seen if you try to use this wad with
some other mods that contain new monsters.

OBJECTS (BDoom_Objects.wad) contains all the additional effects: new decorations,
extremely enhanced light sources, breakable lamps, cool explosion for explosive
barrels, splashes for liquid floors, cool animation for liquid textures, landing
sounds and many many more. Virutally all the objects in Doom were remade. It also
includes item replacements, like enhanced Invisibility, and new pickup sounds for
them. There are also new sounds for switches and buttons, and, if you use this
wad along with WEAPONS, you'll hear actual footsteps, different for evey surface.

In the third module Partial Invisibility is replaced with Improved Invisibility:
this invisibility is noticeably more effective, monsters react not much when
you are invisible, and seeking missiles of Revenants can't seek you. It, however,
only lasts for 40 seconds.[/spoiler]

Optional Patches:
[Replacer] (Used in-case if the Brutal Doom weapons are showing up even if the wad is loaded after Brutal Doom)

Since May 21, 2013 I have made this only work when loaded after Brutal Doom, since then Brutal Doom is now a requirement for this mod

Tried that on Zandronum and it worked. I've never played that wad since it was only for (G)ZDooM.

Update:

Added Marine Skins by Ghastly (Was allowed by the creator of Beautiful Doom since it doesn't change anything gameplay wise, crouching also doesn't work right, no matter what I tried it would not work. If someone can help get them working that would be of great help)

Removed AutoAim from most of the weapons to prevent them from hitting actors such as gibs and decorations

Ever thought that the mod you are using itself is not Zandronum compatible?

So now we have ZD as ZDoom, ZDaemon and ZanDronum, apparently.

For some reason I thought this was going to be a ZDaemon mod. i don't even know anymore
[quote="Kennon Conrad"]Dear LawCounsels,
To prove your compressor works, I suggest you try it on your posts and then post only the result.

We all know an ideal lossy compressor would output 0 bytes for your posts, so see if you can beat that.

Have a nice day.[/quote]

Stopped working on this, the system is way to incredibly strict with what I do. For example if I change simple value such as adding +CLIENTSIDEONLY to shell casings in the weapons all gibbing and flame deaths stop working

I did a work around for all this and since Brutal Doom is almost the same as this one, I've made a small wad that gives beautiful doom weapons with Brutal Doom effects, monsters and objects, but to keep it original to what Beautiful Doom wanted to be like I removed all the extra stuff like fatalities, kicking, and other things. All you need is the current version of Brutal Doom and make sure you load it before you load this wad or else nothing will happen

Well, that sucks. But I suppose it was less tedious for you to block out Brutal Doom content than it was to not need the pack at all, huh?

The original author stated, he wanted this to be more doom like, and fatalities, reloading, kicking, and other things are not really original doom like. Not sure if that was the appropriate response cause I'm unsure how exactly to responde
