From the title screen, go to multiplayer, specify IPV4 address, and enter 51.161.34.159
You can also open the console and type "connect 51.161.34.159"

We also have a mumble server up to voice chat with your fellow anons

>>9838371
It's over guys, pack up the general

>>9838343
I'd rather make a Blame!-based pack of maps for Quake 2.

>>9838318
With faster weapon switching it becomes a completely new game.

>>9838297
Love how things goes around
Quake 2 Strogg were a homage to the Borg
Now Picard era Borg is the Strogg thanks to Janeway fucking them Bitterman style back in Voyager series finale https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIkoJfXO_pY

>>9838343
That depends on yamagi getting rid of map limitations as KMQ2 and leaving .wal and .pcx as legacy texture format in favor of PNG, dds and TGA, or Spike FINALLY working on FTEQ2 support so it isnt shit.

but then everyone needs to team up and bicker them to do that, because knightmare has plans for this.

According to Quake Champions, Shamblers have fur on their heads but on their arms.

>>9838397
Disgusting image and nonsensical text.

>>9838397
>but not on their arms.

>>9838430
Quiet, analytical, and he's a bit of a fucking goblin too. Look at how he plays with the hammer on the .357 or pokes at the Snark. Gordon's a smart man but he does stupid shit, which is funny.

>>9838430

>With faster weapon switching it becomes a completely new game.
I really should weapon switch more. I tended to stick to the SSG, chaingun and hyperblaster even on hard for this unit.

>>9838397
I don't think Quake Champions is particularly reliable source of information.

>>9838503
Better face than Eternal.

>>9838509
>>9838509
Well yeah. The face itself is fine, it's just the proportions that are off.

So I had to go through hell to save this merry band of retards but don't get to go on a glorious revenge spree alongside them against a helpless army of Strogg? 0/10 worst mod ever.
Seriously though, I was glad I saved that Quad for the boss.

>>9838503

>>9838503
Disgusting. Just another example of people not having a clue about what they're doing nowadays.

>>9838519
It makes sense that Doomguy would have blue eyes.

>>9838516
OK, there is clearly something wrong with my Yamagi Quake 2 install. I haven't seen these guys at all.

just saw the news

What’s funny is how this also mirrors my experience with Q1 before my binging of 2: Tried the first four episodes after forever, “hey that was okay”, expansions felt better, then oh fuck the mods.
>>9838397
The “classic armor” skin for Doomguy got ported nearly 1:1 into the newest Doom game, and it has scars and marking insinuating he was the center guy on the cover of the original i.e. the guy who is about to die.

>>9838561
If its anything like my first attempts at installing the Unit you're actually playing one of the expansions instead. You're meant to start in a hub where these buttons all call for different items to activate and a spinning thing outside with half of the weapons sitting underneath it.

>>9838659
You're not meant to use the console to start it? Huh, weird. Very weird.

>>9838664
You can, but I just made a Yamagi shortcut with the commands to run it plus my preferred difficulty instead.

>>9838561
They appear at the end of a single mission, the one where you're sent into a prison/torture chamber.
There's a chance you haven't got there yet.

Also this happened

>The “classic armor” skin for Doomguy got ported nearly 1:1 into the newest Doom game, and it has scars and marking insinuating he was the center guy on the cover of the original i.e. the guy who is about to die.
You can always tell the newbies/Eternal kids by them assuming that actually was Doomguy, even though the full image shows its in first person and some of the demons are turning to look at you too.

>>9838680

>>9838673
But I got there, I've already beaten the unit and haven't seen a single BFG Gladiator nor did I see any follower muhreens.

Pull out ethernet cord, load a wad with a nice set of midis, get hot drinks and snacks, go to town.

>>9838720
what is all this

I saw Ranger at the armory in the Slipgate Complex yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “HUH! HUH! HUH!” and jumping up and down. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen packs of nails in his hands without paying.
The grunt at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear him, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When he took one of the nails and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped him and told him to scan them each individually “to prevent any slipgate infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After he scanned each pack and put them in a backpack and started to say the price, he kept interrupting him by yawning really loudly.

>>9838693
Okay, that is weird. Maybe something was wrong with the install?
Also, BFG Gladiators stopped being an issue the moment I realised you could do the usual melee dance with them, making that bullshit homing BFG of theirs utterly useless.
I actually still find Beta Gladiators scarier because they somehow seem to have way more health.

>>9838608
I just learned about this shit and Im in complete disbelief that they thought they could just sweep it under the rug

What the fuck man

>>9838608
Now all we need is that band of zoomers who took over the Quake modding community to fracture and things will be looking up for the genre.
But yeah, no matter what we're here and having fun as always.

Unrecord will save the fps genre

>>9838608
Graf won't let Rachael get ousted and GZD dweebs got nowhere else to go. Calling it, they'll wait a couple weeks, then Marisa's accusers will start getting banned for unrelated reasons. Maybe Rachael will call the accusations a conspiracy theory or something. Finally Marisa will be let in after a tearjerking statement or two, and the site will be back to business as usual with the whole topic declared taboo.

>>9838615
The problem with Quake 2 is that the main games AI is retarded and it's like the Strogg are suicidal. I like a good curbstomp from time to time, but even on the hardest setting it's a joke.
Then you play the expansions and suddenly even the most basic Strogg are an actual threat who will shoot on sight and won't shy away from using powerful attacks often. If it wasn't for the oddly lobotomized AI in the main game I think Quake 2 would have a better reputation these days.

The status bar not being properly integer scaled in pretty much any of the relevant doom ports really, really triggers my autism. Uneven pixels is the worst thing that happened to humanity.

>>9838879
I've been enjoying what's there, dude's really fucking creative in a way that I'd compare to something like Heartlands in places.

>>9838397
I thought the explanation for it was "there are both types of Shamblers".

>>9838887
Anon...
Integer scaling itself only works at 1600x1200 or 1280x1000 (some ports)

>>9838924
The statusbar is not properly scaled on any resolution.

>>9838931
What port are you using?

>>9838934
DSDA. I think the only port that I've seen have even pixels is chocolate doom and maybe crispy, can't remember.

>>9838940
Oh yeah, DSDA doesn't do integer scaling right. I've only managed to get it right if set the resolution to 1280x1000.
I think GZDoom does it right, if I'm not mistaken. (only the status bar)

>>9838608

wait, so the tranny that drove Term out of Doom modding was the same one that tried to groom a kid?

From the horse's mouth...

>>9838974
>>9838996

>>9838608
Folks like Kinsie and Marty, big ass pillars of the Doom modding scene, just up and yeeted themselves out of ZDoom. Judging from the forum post, guys like Brohnesorge and DoomKrakken might jump ship too. It's HUGE leakage of people. It might even mean the death of the ZDoom forums if things escalate enough (Though that is a bit unlikely, if I'm honest).

This is unrelated to FPS games but it's still an old PC game and I can't figure it out
Where do I get Oni? I tried downloading and virustotalling the files off of Myabandonware but the Crack itself had an NSIS Virus Downloader in it according to the site.

>>9838693
Did you found the Ion Ripper in that level's waterfall alternate entrance?

>>9839026

>>9839001
Check slipseer's twitter, He posted graf exposing himself as a asshole defending the groomers because his cred will die out along with the forum.

>>9839043
Actually, it's even worse: there is no Ion Ripper at all, even through give all cheat.

>no one is safe from the troons polluting their community

Brainlet question; the DSDA doom autoload folders, you just...put the files in for them and it just werks?
Can you create them in advance for say TNT and Plutonia as well?

>>9838608
>Troon communist with loli avatar is a gay groomer

Therefore a theft of the source code is needed for a proper fork without graf's shit.
Unironically this unconsciously helps Bethesda with their own Doom fork, because projects would be aimed into that and doom 64

Is there a reason to use a nodebuilder anymore? I'm assuming it's required for vanilla. I'm tempted to just not use one because there don't appear to be any native Linux nodebuilders.

by the way his patreon is still up
so I took the liberty to report it and link to the Zdoom statement

not that its going to do much, but hopefully it will get taken down

>>9839079
Outside of pak2.pak there's nothing except pak0 and pak1 which are renamed pak0 files of the expansions. There are extra folders, but they don't have anything except tris.md2 in deadbods and monsters plus the actual map files.

>>9839087
You can't just fork GZDoom freely?

>>9839101
Oh, and sound files are all present it seems.

>>9839069

I will never buy it that it's just that simple, especially since I live in a post-soviet shithole and know for a fact that no real communist government would ever allow for something as hyper-bourgoise frivolous and planned economy production-distrupting as transgenderism acceptance

Finished the 25th Anniversary Collaborative Unit.
I really liked it for the most part, but the ending is really abrupt. I was expecting a final boss or something, not a surprise BFGladiator camping the exit.
I also never found a rocket launcher for some weird reason, so I assume it was in one of the many secrets I didn't find. I did get to the secret level and grab a BFG though, so that was nice. Also, where was the new music the readme mentioned? It was the usual Sonic Mayhem stuff from what I could tell.

Anyway, I really liked it but I was left kind of wanting more. Which is a good thing, since that's basically what the modders wanted, going by the readme. Great shit guys, I guess I'm back on Quake 1 now though unless you have any good Quake 2 campaigns to recommend.

>>9839087

>the staff were discussing plans in their discord to eventually bring the person in question back into the community and pressure other communities to do the same.
if people that behave like that are whats holding the community together then its better for it to fall apart.


do we have any logs on that?

>>9839052
The Ion Ripper is good? I thought it was a gimmick weapon and didn't use it, preferring the Hyper Blaster instead. Of course, I liked the survivability of the power shield so I tried to limit my use of energy weapons at all.

In the secret level, there was a part where you choose between going left or right. Going right progressed the level, going left brought me to a small pool with the rocket launcher.
I’d recommend Quakeulf’s other stuff like that Sonic Mayhem unit, if you haven’t played them already.

I may be late on this, but Caligari87 has declared that he wants Rachel off the mod team.

>>9839139
Dammit, I knew I should have gone down that path! Oh well, I liked it enough that I'll be replaying it anyway, so I can finally get me a rocket launcher next time. The Q2 grenade launcher may look better than Quake 1's but it's nowhere near as good, and I had to rely on that for my explosions unless I wanted to throw the grenades like a caveman.

>>9839135
>X-COM but missions play like Rainbow Six
I'd toyed with something similar based off UFO Enemy Unknown and TFTD but I couldn't really get the destructible structure stuff to feel good so it got shelved.

Has /vr/ ever played Doom on a 386SX computer?

>>9839149
>The Q2 grenade launcher may look better than Quake 1's but it's nowhere near as good
Agreed completely, I also finished the secret level last and didn’t even find the rocket launcher the first time through it either…
I’m likely going to try some tests using the grenade launcher with the switch animation cancelling, might now be a decent way to start an attack followed up by the other weapons.

>>9839087
Graf pretty much said that Rachael has to go.

>>9839136

It was botched heavily in almost every way and felt like it was kicked out of the door for release, but yeah more or less.
It was talked about the last few threads, but that wtfxboxhuge build mod AMC Squad has a similar research system like the early XComs. There’s a similar non-linear mission structure where you have some degree regarding their order of completion, it’s not a set order of episodic level progression like original Doom and Duke.

There's an end level with a megabattle (techbased), but it crashes Yamagi on load, I had to switch to Q2Pro which unfortunately is savegame-incompatible and also a better port from what I can tell even if it's MP focused, as usual the most shilled is the worst one

>>9839325
not very subtle but funny

>>9839348

Oh. I just thought the game ending and throwing me out to desktop was just it going "Yeah, that's it - go away now."

>>9839331
is that you, Carmack?

im playing amc squad but i noticed research keeps resetting
finished the first level and researched the explosive shells and the MIA gun, then cleared the stage again as another character but when back in base in loadout the stuff doesnt appear and in research screen it still says unresearched and lets me spend money again

>>9839330
Sounds like that would be some combination of DRLA and RPGDoom with squad commands. Maybe add in some of Babel's fear mechanics for fun.

SonderKommando was retooled into that one mod we eventually got (which IMO seems like it's in a lot poorer taste), and the original version with the actual concentration camps and all was actually leaked about a year back, here:

I've wanted this for actual decades, with the athmosphere and map generation faithful to the original UFO: Enemy Unknown. Some of the more complicated buildings and terror missions would be pure kino, imagine being set up in the three-story apartment building and peeking out of the windows into the dark streets while snakemen and chryssalids are lurking in the map and laying siege to the house.

If you want to see some absolute trash Quake maps, look at a few of the Halloween Jam levels. It's 50 - 50 whether you'll get something cool and spooky or a gigantic hallway of nothing other than two guys sprinting down it at you.

>>9839494
>AMCSquad TC
AMC is great but it might be too much for me.. It's got an insane amount of effort in it but I need to basically be unemployed to make any headway in the mod.

Might give it a better shot when I have more free time on my hands

And yes, a lot of places are top comf, especially the gunslinger's apartment. The other issue with the mod I guess is that some of the weapon models etc are of inconsistent quality, I dislike the shotgun for example but uh yeah, it's just a good mod, just a handful.

>>9839508
Not that anon, I'd say it's ok, it wouldn't really have made any waves if it hadn't been tied to Romero and it basically only got a cacoward for that.

I also never really got the saying it's official thing, surely for that Sandy Peterson would have to come in at last minute to make 2/3s of the maps with tools he barely knows while Romero tried to do the rockstar game dev thing again.

Nice, another shitty map.

>>9839508
I'm so glad Romero's mapping again. As much as yeah, you could make the argument that his slacking ultimately was the downfall of Id because the power duo was broken, all of that is decades in the past now and it's genuinely heartwarming that he still now seems to have passion for Doom.

>>9839487
Lol hey better before than after, right? I suspected something was up because the titlepic is in widescreen when it’s got the pk3 loaded.

>>9838389
Even if you were to just build for KMQ2, it'd probably break later. Citadel and Juggernaut 2, despite having their own KMQ2 DLLs, are incompatible with the latest builds.

>>9839518

>>9839515
>I also never really got the saying it's official thing, surely for that Sandy Peterson would have to come in at last minute to make 2/3s of the maps
Lol. tbf tho Romero only started the rockstar thing by Doom 2 and at that point Sandy was familiar with the tools.

>>9839543
Citadel's source is linked in the readme HTML, I'm pretty sure.

Mandatory damaging floor and a rad suit right before it is a lame setup.

The only pre-HL classical shooters I beat were Blood and Doom 1-2. The rest just didn't stick to me since they all became dull and repetitive real quick. I really dig the aesthetic and art-direction, but level design of most of the boomer shooters was still too raw. Sometimes even for it's time.
It's a shame that people put HL in opposition to old-style FPS by calming that it was too linear, but forgetting that it sacrificed a lot in order to be more engaging.
Glad that these days gamedevs understand that and put much more effort into levels, rather that just stuffing the game with lot's of monsters, weapons and gigs alone.

>>9839563
What about a mandatory damaging floor and a rad suit in it?

>>9839594
Mandatory damaging floor with a radsuit in a non-obvious secret halfway into it.

>>9839049
That one is ringing up the same thing on virustotal too.
I feel like I should just ignore it.

>>9839563
Damaging floor is fucking lame in almost every scenario.

My favorite usage is where it's optional to go into damaging floor so you can avoid something even more dangerous temporarily. A tradeoff between taking guaranteed damage from floor vs taking a chance that enemies hit you.

what about
rad suit but no damaging floor to be found?

>>9833957
Never expected someone to spoonfeed me the source link AND exact function names to look for. Thanks anon!

>>9839593
did you try duke nukem 3d?
very solid level design aside from the water/canyon levels

>>9839623
Radsuit but the damaging floor is in an area out of the playable map that you can see but never access?

>>9839601
Only 3 matches (and from nobodies) is extremely likely safe.

>>9839646
Nta, but for a risk vs reward analysis, I don't think that game is worth it lol.

>>9839650
True lol
Maybe it's a blessing in disguise.

>map has a smiley face in a pop up informational message

=)

>>9839628
Yes. I tried them all. Original Doom's I beat just because it's classic and Blood is the only one I really liked despite hitscan hell on Crispy, because map design and atmosphere were real deal. DN3D is just not in my lane.
I don't say that these games are bad or that there is nothing in them to love, but map design is very-very raw. Both Doom's maps are getting progressively worse and worse after around 1/3 of the game. Duke maps is reusing same gigs again and again. Shadow Dragon is just plain boring because half of the ideas just not work and enemies are horribly spongey, making every inch of the map feel like a mile. I'm not even gonna talk about Rise of The Triads - jeez these maps were awful even by 1994 standards.
Many said back in 2001 that Serious Sam was bold by reviving old-school FPS, but there was nothing old-school about it really - it had a completely new outlook on how FPS games should play like, which none of the boomer shooters never realized. Most of the "old-school" stuff in it was because devs were short on the budget, not cause they really intended it to bee that way.

>>9839675
Most of us tend to play with mods or mapsets that are very different to the original level designs. That said, if you don't like levels to explore that are filled with monsters to shoot with the focus being on those two things then I'm not sure what you really want from us. Because that's basically what retro shooters are about and why we like them.

>>9839628

>>9839632
>breaking a Romero level design principle
reeeeeeeee

>>9839685
Just venting my steam cause I jumped on that old-boomer-shooters train due to promise of many hours of original non-stop slaughter and saw only games where authors didn't even understood completely what they were doing until few month before release. I liked Ion Fury because map design was superb, but it's not 100% boomer and games like these are long to develop and rare on the market.

>>9839685
> That said, if you don't like levels to explore that are filled with monsters to shoot with the focus being on those two things then I'm not sure what you really want from us.
To be fair there's that one anon who you see in these threads sometimes who just likes to turn all monsters off, hide the weapons and explore the architecture of maps, which is fine.

He keeps doing new things and he isn't above just making a doom wad full of cute girls either. I get sick of tech base/hell/etc over and over. A lot of these mods need to develop their own visual identity.

Some of those people were really, REALLY into brutalism. Not just 'I can appreciate this as a style to be explored or enhanced' into it, but 'I want to LIVE in the soul-crushing concrete cube structure' into it.

>>9839026
>>9839601
What's the crack supposed to do? Reading an NFO from the DEViANCE release there's no protection on the game and the instructions were to just install and play. Other than that just came across an "Anniverary Edition" that looks like a fan-patch as well as a Daodan DLL file, both are to make it easier run on modern systems while the fan-patch also has additional stuff.

>>9840178
No one actually likes brutalist architecture... right?

>>9840214
Verhoeven likes it. Robocop, Total Recall, Starship Troopers if you look close.

>No one actually likes brutalist architecture... right?
I'm a big fan, especially when its coupled with nighttime.

>>9840245
what the fuck is brutalist in this context? Quake 1 features interesting architecture but giving the 1.44MB limit on the maps, they are not very complex, thus, brutalist in my view.

even Quake 2 is a giant military base and brutalist by this very nature.

Or by brutalist you mean simple architecture combined with flat textures?

>>9839512
I kinda liked it better back when all the enemy and character sprites were ripped from other games and mods. I think they changed them all for EP3.
I finished EP1 back before EP2 was released, it's certainly an interesting project.

Update from this >>9840192, got a redump copy of the game ran the install and tested the stock executable before doing anything else and even that got flagged with the same stuff. So guessing this is something with just heuristics picking up on something with how the thing was compiled, I've seen it happen with other older games too. Afterwards did the "Anniversary Edition" patch and that appears to include the nocd patch along with the other stuff.

>>9840251
relating to a style of building in which buildings are large and heavy-looking and often made of concrete:

This reminds me that the HEV suit was originally going to have some special functions similar to Deus Ex's augmentations, like antitoxin canisters it would store and administer to stop the effects of poison, airtanks to let Gordon stay underwater for longer, and even an adrenaline canister that acted as a one-time revive
I think Absolute Zero was trying to bring these things back, since it's a Half-Life Alpha recreation mod, but I wanted a mod that implements them in retail HL.

>>9838378
>With faster weapon switching it becomes a completely new game.
Never realized how sluggish it actually is to switch weapons in that game, but now that I think about, I bet making it faster would make the whole experience a lot better.

>>9840574
Having the HEV suit functioning more like advanced life support for the egghead inside would've made it cooler, but I couldn't imagine it coming in to play too much with how linear the game ended up being. If they somehow managed to eke out the whole "revisit areas of Black Mesa with repopulated monsters and REALTIME MOSS!" in 1998 then having all the consumables would've been great.

>>9840101

>>9840648

>>9840672

>>9840607
> but I couldn't imagine it coming in to play too much with how linear the game ended up being.
That's correct, any mod that implements these features would also need its gameplay designed differently to make good use of them. At least, the audio for pretty much all unused HEV lines is still in the files, so recreating the features themselves would probably be the easier part.
> "revisit areas of Black Mesa with repopulated monsters and REALTIME MOSS!"
Rain World is probably the one game that comes the closest to fulfilling Valve's ambitions of a living ecosystem that exists independently of the player.
I find it interesting how Half-Life almost was one of the original immersive sims, maybe it still can become one.

Huh? I'd say to the contrary it's a game where almost everything is a glass cannon. I can understand not liking it for the general jank and being sometimes too random and abrupt with the ways the game kills you or for the repetitive level themes but that one complaint is weird.

>>9841095

i think it'd make more sense if he managed to leave the ship before it falls off to explode
like imagine him using a jetpack or parachutes to escape in safety
you'd also technically have "2" enemies: an exploding hazard going to some direction and the zombieman that's gonna fight you when he lands in safety

>>9841104
That's a better idea, but I wonder if he'd get stuck in the ship when it becomes a kamikaze.

>>9841095
>>9841104
>>9841109
This is doable, but there's a risk the guy gets stuck on a ledge. I guess jetpack is a valid option. But then I'd have to delete the guy from the seat.

I'm not sure how that would help. I already have a jetpack zombie so I could make him spawn, maybe give him impulse to fly away.
Collision is the problem if spawning from the impact site because I won't be able to tell if there's space.

>>9839135

>>9841134
A flying enemy turning into another flying enemy seems a little samey to me.
Maybe if the jetpack lasted for a few seconds before he landed? Make him nonsolid and remove that flag and flying to make sure he's unlikely to get stuck somewhere inaccessible or inside the ship.

Every McGee D3D map is bad imo

Levelord* sry

>>9841137
If I have him spawn the moment the ship starts falling, it could work. If I make him excluded from killcount, it won't matter if it gets trapped in an odd place. I have a pretty fitting guy for this, I'll see how it goes when I get back home.

It would look pretty stupid at high altitude though.

They’re still likeDoom 3, maybe a bit trickier if you play on nightmare since you don’t get to use the cube but it doesn’t do much to the base game or AI. I haven’t tested to see if it’s any deadbody or specifically tagged ones that can recharge RoE’s artifact. Quake 4 never got an expansion.
I think this is also around the time when everyone got interested in making stuff through Source.

The recent Quake 2 Anniversary Unit got me replaying Quake 2 again. I regret doing this with the basic Strogg though, these incompetents stand no chance even if they are fun to kill.

If you played the 25th anniversary unit first, you could’ve started the original campaign through the mod by entering “map base1” or whichever map into the console after setting your own “skill x” setting.

>>9841317
Come on, it's not that bad.

>>9841298
Don’t be racist.

>>9841329
>map base1
Cool! I might start over and do just that. Fighting actually dangerous Strogg is way more fun, and they give you far too many supplies anyway.

>>9841329
I can use the anniversary in leu of having the expansions?

>>9841298
Probably because he's polish just like the original doom guy.

>>9841349
I like to start at either base1 or bunk1 for the vanilla campaign, the beginning of that second unit that McGee made starts you off with the super shotty.
>>9841361
If you mean instead of playing the original campaign through the expansions then yeup, same for any vanilla compatible levels. You’ll still need to boot up the expansions themselves if you want to play their levels.

>>9841381
sweet ty for the info
I suppose I should play the anniversary in any case

>>9841381
Oh fuck, I restarted using the commands you recommended and this is so much better. The Strogg actually put up a fight now and have basic AI. They actually jumped on the tram in the secret SSG level to chase me! It was really cool. As an added bonus the Quad damages all have the neat 25th anniversary logo on them too.
Thanks, anon!

>>9841393
It’s quite good. After a bunch of these Q1 mods it’s especially nice having a hub of levels where your weapons and inventory don’t reset.
>>9841418
Awesome. I’ve only played a quarter of the campaign but haven’t ran into any issues yet. I’d hope you’ll run into less issues than when I played the campaign through the Mission 64 mod, of which I encountered a whopping three issues messing with map progression.

>>9841486
The only issue I've encountered so far was a rare console pop up expecting some kind of sound or effect that clearly wasn't working. But I'm an autist and can just pretend that's Bitterman's visor malfunctioning from the crash landing or something.
The faster weapon switching and improved enemies are a lot of fun though, but what's the supposed new Berserker behaviour I hear about? Is it the hammer attack they sometimes do? I tend to just backtrack while blasting them so I rarely see them do anything, outside of the sneaky bastard who bonked me on the head from behind.
I also notice ammo packs contain far, far more ammo in them for some reason. But I don't mind, baseline Quake 2 hands out supplies like free samples anyway so it makes little difference.

>>9841497
>The faster weapon switching and improved enemies are a lot of fun though, but what's the supposed new Berserker behaviour I hear about?
There’s that overhead slam they can do and there’s that running attack they can pull out now. They’re still not too threatening by themselves, even when they’re on crack through the 64 mod, but they still serve a similar functions as pinky’s when there’s other enemies present and seeing them utilize those attacks is fun to see.
>I also notice ammo packs contain far, far more ammo in them for some reason. But I don't mind, baseline Quake 2 hands out supplies like free samples anyway so it makes little difference.
Oops, I should have paid attention to that when I was playing through the unit. You’re right though that the main campaign drowns you in ammo anyways, especially if you start at the very beginning.

I hope that Judge Doom anon is doing alright.

>>9841574
I also wonder how the author of Legion of Bones is doing, since the mod still has no Cyberdemon replacement.

>>9839440
whoa it really makes the pixels blend together

>>9840648
I tried for like 2 minutes to see it in vain.
>>9840748
He probably used the shotgun as the workhorse instead of explosives

>>9841595
Riotgunning the green guys and lady ninjas can take them down pretty quickly, maybe spray a few uzi bullets on them as well. They never felt like they did enough to justify getting exploded, I’d rather save those for the shirtless ninjas.

>>9841574
Oh fuck, I forgot about that dude, I hope he's not just vanished like that Kirby mod anon did.

Also I approve of your taste in mod/map combinations.

>>9840018
The Gun Is GOOD

>>9841619
Auger?
Mod(hud) name?

>>9841704
Not him but Dakka and the mapset is AUGER;ZENITH.

>>9841619
>For Doom, Doom II, Heretic, and Hexen
How the fuck does that work? Does the game run as long as you launch it with any IWAD? Are there different maps based on which IWAD you use? I'm so confused...

>>9841719
Its an editor/bundle of tools rather than a game.

>>9840574
>and even an adrenaline canister that acted as a one-time revive
So that's what this HUD announcer's *WARNING, user death imminent! Administering morphine* soundbyte was probably all about..

>>9841726
Ahhh, gotcha. It's not so much a "3D game" called "Alchemy", but rather actual "3D game alchemy".

Is there a mod that randomizes map orders in wads?
Like if you want to replay a mapset but not chronogically, so you start at map 12, then 3, then 26 and so on.

>>9841486
>weapons dont reset
cool, sounds like a fun additional incentive to hunt for secrets and be smart with ammo

>>9841719
There are some mod makers who autistically make their shit compatible with as many iwads as possible, like guncaster's donut steel having dialogue in strife

>>9841283
At moments the SSG of Q2 really feels a tad too strong, as it does exactly the same damage as a direct RL hit at point-blank (kinda like it also works in Doom2 strenght-wise coincinditentally)

>>9841756
>be smart with ammo
Quake 2 floods the maps with ammo and the anniversary unit is no different in that regard. I'd still take that over the ammo shortage certain Quake 1 mods/maps insisted on during my time with it. An FPS is about shooting things, after all.
>>9841765
I love it. The thing feels like a cannon and sounds like the most powerful weapon you have, even if later guns outclass it.
If anything I don't like the Hyperblaster (feels far too weak to be a plasma gun) and the BFG (it looks cool, but it's the weakest BFG in the id library by far and you're better off keeping the cells to power the overshield)

>>9841704
This is the mod, it's pretty great.

>>9841752
I think the mod you're looking for is called MOShuffle.

>>9839135
X-Com Enforcer but it's a boomer shooter. You gain reasearhc points by killing enemies or finding secrets. At the end of the mission or end of the Act you can upgrade your Enforcer. Inventory system or Light RPG elemets like In Alien Shooter 2

>>9841847
Come to think of it, Lithium almost gets near that stuff minus research being getting the research items from miniboss fights.

Besides some good atmosphere this was only alright.

>>9839135
The timeline where Valve makes their Team Fortress mod for Unreal instead of Quake

This would have been glorious. The same characters but it's all sci fi with Liandri instead of Mann Co.
