This should make Vanilla Doom more enjoyable. I'm sure a DeHackEd version is possible but w.e. I made this mod because Doom has an unnecessary delay before each weapon fires. This is dumb so I fixed it. Weapon switching was slow as hell too, so I speeded that up.
- Weapon switching with all weapons is now faster.
- Pistol, Shotgun and Supershotgun now fire instantly.
- Chaingun, Chainsaw and Plasmarifle already fired instantly. (No changes to their Fire: states)
- Rocketlauncher, Fist and BFG9000's fire delay were necessary so those haven't been touched.
- Shotgun and Supershotgun reload animation can now be cancelled by switching weapons.

Have Fun. If you enjoy it, you can stick it in your skins folder (single player only) and you'll never have to play with unresponsive weapons again.
To run this with Ultimate Doom, Load Doom2.wad on top of NoLagWeps_WepSwitchFaster.wad.
If you're using this mod which adds HQ sounds http://www.perkristian.net/game_doom-sfx.shtml then the reload sound for the shotgun will sound out of place. To fix that, I made an alternative pump sound which will fit with the rest of the HQ sounds. You can download it here:

Here is another mod aimed to improve Doom and can actually be loaded with this mod too. http://www.doomworld.com/vb/wads-mods/6 ... d-6-26-13/
