Was looking for funny examples of Deus Ex's voice talent for the PS3 games thread, and stumbled upon... this.

That's awesome. The cat models in Deus Ex are adorable, and this video just had me rolling. :3:

The entirety of that mod is that awesome. It led to plenty of annoying catchphrases between me and my friends.

Steam runs fine in Wine; furthermore, if your distro has PlayOnLinux in the repositories (it should), that has a canned Steam config - which means it will automatically handle downloading and installing Steam, a Steam-friendly wine version, and all of the dependencies.

Do that, buy and install Doom 2, grab the IWADs from the Steam install directory.

Perfect - I can't believe I'd never heard of PlayOnLinux before now!

Like I've been saying, it's the only Doom mod that makes Doom even Doomier. I recorded a little bit of gameplay footage of it here for anyone who hasn't tried it yet - I'll probably record some more tonight or tomorrow on a less brown level to show off other aspects of it.

And yes, I do use the regenerating health module. It really helps minimize bullshit - having just enough health (it only takes you up to 36%) to soak up a single cacodemon shot usually gives you just enough life out of cover to get to the nearest proper health pickup.

Yeah it still feels like Doom but everything has been brought up to modern standards. It's fun as hell and most importantly plays great.

Funny that, I just gave it a proper try today with the 2011 music and it's completely loving crazy how much carnage you can cause within seconds of entering a room. I love walking back through a level after reaching the exit and seeing the whole place coated from floor to ceiling with blood, gibs and bullet holes. Can't quite figure out how to to this 'meat shield' thing I keep hearing about, though.

Also is it just me or are there more enemies than there used to be?

Brutal Doom is good enough to make me replay both Dooms and as many WADs as I can stomach. I have a hard time imagining Doom without all of the blood splattering and the "gently caress YOURSELF" button.

Brutal Doom is basically the ideal FPS in its purest form. Doom 4 just needs to be Brutal Doom with modern graphics in order to go down as the greatest video game of all time.

How do you kick and do other executions and such in Brutal Doom? I didn't see anything in the keybindings about it.



e: also Brutal Doom makes me really sad that they've not released the source for Blood so we could see awesome poo poo done to that game too

Check your keybindings in GZDoom or Skulltag, there's a few specially related to Brutal Doom with that name over the keys (scroll way down in the keybinding list), usually puts Q as default for kick, R for reload and F for gently caress YOURSELF animation.

Blood with an Eduke32 alike port would own, now that they made real room-over-room possible.

Doom is one of those games I can't stand to see modified. I really like all the stuff Brutal Doom does, but I wouldn't be able to enjoy it because, as Doom-esque as all of that stuff is, it just isn't Doom. Vanilla all the way.

Real room-over-room? How is that possible within the confines of the Build engine?

Or is it done through portals as a trick like in Blood?

So, I went and made that new Brutal Doom video. Better levels, but not a better player. I'm really not very good at this, despite decades of experience. Oops.

I think it's real room over room. There were tricks with getting rooms over each other in the original Duke 3D, too, but it involved not being able to see both rooms at the same time.

SCheeseman
Apr 23, 2003

It's true room over room. It's supported natively in the map format instead of being a hack involving sector effectors. The only downside is that there are limitations with what you can make when using the software renderer. Though if you're using polymer the sky is the limit, you could make a 1:1 remake of a quake level if you wanted (it would be difficult and there might be some collision errors though).

It's kind of unpolished, but even in its current state it's drat useful. I've just started using it for everything; even when it doesn't have a canned config, its ability to manage multiple wine versions and keep different windows programs in different wineroots makes it useful.

Is it possible to put Ragdoll enemies and/or physics in a source port for a 2.5D game?

SCheeseman
Apr 23, 2003

Most open source physics libraries tend to be coded in c++ as opposed to plain old c. It would be rather difficult (though not impossible) to use a modern lib like that on such ancient code.

That and I don't know that any source port ever actually got skeletal animation which is fairly key to the concept. Maybe Doomsday did?

Technically yes, with the source, but it'd be a big undertaking. I prefer sprites over 3D models in the games anyway.

I'm new to this whole Doom source ports thing. How do I load multiple WADs in Skulltag? Or combine (though I don't think that is the right way)? I'd like to play this 10x mod on other level packs with my buddies, but none of us have any idea how to get them both to load. I have a feeling that I'm just not searching for the right terminology or method, and don't know what the correct answer would look like.

In this particular instance I imagine you can select both WADs and drag it onto the Skulltag exe.

I swear by Quickly Launchering GZDoom (over in the OP) - really helps set up complex combos of files and switching between mods easily.

Edit: Something I both love and hate about Brutal Doom: Fighting cyberdemons in close quarters is TERRIFYING now. Why? Because rather than being nice and predictable and firing rockets all day long, they occasionally fire bouncing impact grenades instead, which are really good for bouncing into a room and killing you dead.

I always imagined something like "sprite shading". Basically, the same method behind cel shading only the 3D model comes across as a 2D sprite with choppy animation.

It works with most other mods that aren't total conversions, just so long as you load Brutal Doom last so that it overrides any weapon/effects replacements. It just doesn't apply the new gore to any new monsters, sadly.

It's a robust piece of hyperviolence.

Edit: Oh yeah, don't even TRY to run it with Deus Vult 2. The cacodemon room in Level 1 is almost unplayably slow, and Minas Morgul becomes unplayable before enemies even appear!

It's absolutely a possibility technically, it just needs someone demented enough to port all the code changes to the Chex actors and someone bored enough to draw a shitload of new animations for all the characters.

So I read through this thread and then downloaded brutal doom and now I'm a better human being than I was a few short days ago.

Knowledge is always a beautiful thing, and I've learnt that every game ever now needs a 'go gently caress yourself' button.

Even Mario.

Actually, especially Mario.

So I can finally host games with my new internet provider. I just have to disconnect the router. I tried all the setting and it still won't work. Quick fix for the win.

If anyone is interested in playing something, I would be happy to host.
