Does anyone know why I get corrupted/missing graphics and a lack of sounds when I boot up Serpent Resurrection? It didn't really give any particularly special instructions. I've go the latest GZDoom and everything.

Glad this is out, however I can't figure out how to replace monsters / weapons without having to individually spawn everything. Is this just how it's meant to be right now or am I missing something?

I dislike how... barebones the Megaton Edition executable is. It's missing things like separate sliders for music and sound, advanced graphics options, all kinds of stuff. I would've liked the rewind feature the XBLA version of Duke has, would really save on having to quicksave and quickload. I realize this might be a limitation of how the game reads .grp files, but it would've been neat to select the expansion packs from inside the game instead of having to choose when I click on the game in Steam. On the upshot, I'm getting to play a bunch of new content I never got to experience before, and hopefully the new multiplayer netcode is good too. I'm really looking forward to them adding mod support, having a repository to download Duke maps akin to quaddicted would be so useful and awesome.

Honestly, since the Chex Quest enemies are (mostly) resprites and/or variations of the Doom enemies, I don't think it'd be terribly hard. There's quite a few Doom enemies not replaced, though, like the Archvile and Pain Elemental, so there'd probably need to be new Flemoids for that.

It's time to talk about Blood. Blood is the best old-school FPS there is. Now I know what you're saying, it isn't Duke, it isn't Doom, it isn't Quake, if Blood is the best why isn't it iconic like those? I mean, I get where you're coming from, I said the same when my friend told me Blood was better than Duke. But I was wrong. The real answer as to why Blood is so comparatively forgotten is that all those other games are for the weak. Blood is really hard. Even on the easier difficulties it is hard. This puts a lot of people off. Blood on the second lowest difficulty is harder than Doom on Ultraviolent. The first level especially is a real trial by fire, as ammo and weapons are scarce and enemies are plentiful. But this teaches you the real lesson of Blood: that victory is in controlling your enemies, not just charging at them. Playing Blood like you'd play Doom gets you killed in about 5 seconds flat, by the most basic enemies in the first interior environment in the whole game. Wait, you might be getting the impression that the game's protagonist, Caleb, is not as badass as Doom Guy or Duke. No, he is more badass than either of them. Caleb is a gunslinger from a time in American history when the main activities were shooting the family dog, getting train-robbed, and dying a death of dignified starvation as your farm turned to dust and blew into the sky. So what? We've seen gunslingers before, nobody cares about cowboys anymore. But Caleb kicks it up a notch. Being a feared gunslinger wasn't enough for him, so he joined an evil cult and through his sheer awesomeness rose to the top. Caleb isn't a hero. He's a poo poo. But then the evil god Tchernabog turns on him and has Caleb and his buddies murdered. For most people being murdered ends things there. Not Caleb though, the game opens with him rising from his grave to begin the murderous rampage to end all murderous rampages. However, that's all backstory poo poo. Who cares about that in a classic shooter? But even without all that poo poo Blood would still be the best. Why? I can't give you a short answer in some sort of bullet-pointed list because I would just be listing all the components of the game. So it's the long answer. First let's go with the main menu. That might sound odd, but all games back then opened with a big fancy splash screen with some sort of badass picture of the protagonist shooting guys with horns in the face. Not Blood, Blood just shows a demo of the first level of the game overlaid with the main menu text, set in classy art-deco font. Why? It's because no man on earth could draw something more badass than Blood's gameplay. The level design friggin rules. Everything basically makes sense architecture-wise, maybe some liberties taken here and there, but it is themeatically consistent. It's all some twisted 1920s art deco poo poo, trains, castles, towns, mansions, funeral homes, loaded with secrets and references that cover the entirety of horror canon. There's a cask of amontillado reference in the second level. You think it's just a cute name for the bar, then BAM, guy loving walled up in there when you blow up a wall. The level everyone talks about when they talk about Blood is the evil fairground, where you can play fairground games with severed heads. But that's not my favourite. My favourite is the enormous haunted mansion, packed full of hidden rooms, bookcase doors, portraits that open to reveal secrets. You can spend aaages looking for secrets in there and you'll find tons of them. It's so interactive and so fun. You can even blow up parts of levels, allowing you to get to secret locations. The enemies that populate these awesome goddamn levels are hosed up and creepy. Their sprites are unsettling, slightly misproportioned claymation looking motherfuckers and it fits the mood of the game perfectly. There are axe wielding zombies, an army of cultists with shotguns and tommyguns, fire-breathing hellhounds, fish that sound like eagles for some reason?, grinning gargoyles that swoop around like mad fuckers. Any one of them can gently caress you up easily if you're not careful. The weapons are awesome. Well, ok, the pitchfork kind of sucks, but it's better than the fists you get in most of these things. Everything else basically one-ups the weapon selection in every other game. Pistol? Flaregun that shoots flares into dudes that cause them to burst into flames a few seconds later. Machinegun? Tommygun. Rocket launcher? Napalm launcher. Everything is better. A hairspray flamethrower is a basic tier weapon in Blood. The 3 types of dynamite really typify the gameplay. Including the alt-fire effects you have so many ways of using just the basic dynamite. You can throw it different ranges by holding down the button and have it explode on impact, or you can have it explode on a time delay and throw it and bounce it round a corner. Or you can set the fuse going then set it down at your feet, perfect for destroying chasing enemies. Then you get the proximity and remote detonation dynamite and you're playing chess with explosives. I think in my haste I forgot to mention the alt fire. Everything (except the pitchfork which sucks) has an alt-fire. The tommygun sweeps hilariously back and forth to clear rooms. The flaregun shoots a starburst of flames. The soul-stealing skull staff serves as a sentry. It's rad. What makes the weapons feel so good are the death effects. Heads pop off and you can kick them around. Burning cultists run around screaming till their skin drops off and their skeleton collapses into a hissing, spitting pool of blood and melted fat. Gibs fly far and wide. The voodoo doll makes people melt. The screams of the dying are harrowing, the sound design and voice acting work is incredible. Other games give their evil wizards gibberish cod-latin or backmasked clips of the developers saying 'floppy dicks'. Not Blood. Their cultists have their own language. The manual has a translation guide. Why? Because it's loving rad, that's why. I talked about Caleb earlier, but his voiceactor does more to make him awesome than the awesome backstory. Caleb has range. One minute he's muttering showtunes (that's right, MOTHER-FUCKIN SHOWTUNES), talking to himself absent mindedly, then he's cackling with evil glee as men explode, screaming. Duke is a one-trick pony, mumbling stolen movie one-liners in a voice so monotone it sounds like he's suffering from steroid-induced bell's palsy. Caleb has a shitload of lines, tons of them context sensitive to individual levels. The only thing really left to mention are the power-ups. Weaker men use medikits to heal themselves. Caleb uses them to patch his coat. What really sustains him are the still-beating hearts of his dead enemies and also hosed up eyeball abominations. Move over berserk pack, guns akimbo is here. One of the most memorable early setpieces in the game is when you're on a train (hell yes train) and you have basically just gotten a tommygun and the guns akimbo powerup. Now you have two tommyguns. The next carriage is a dining car full of like 30 goddamn cultists. You know what to do. Basically Blood owns and you should play it. Right now. It's on gog.com for far less money than it's worth.

That's totally different than my experience with Blood (and I've played it many times). Maybe you're bad at it? Don't sweat taking damage too much. Enemies drop health powerups pretty often and it's a lot more fun than the way you were playing it.

Blood is definitely a much more tactical game than people give it credit for. There's a reason why the very first weapon you're given after your melee pitchfork isn't the flare gun, but rather the dynamite: You're going to be blowing poo poo up. A lot. Any room with enemies in it gets a face-full of boom before you even poke your head inside. The enemies in Blood are twitchy and accurate, but you have a ton of indirect attack options, and the game expects you to use them.

I had less problems with bullshit unavoidable enemy damage in Blood than I did in Duke. You've got so many more options as far as indirect attack goes, and the only enemies that do hitscan damage to you are the cultists and they all die super fast. I think the reason the flaregun works the way it does is to allow you to kill cultists without having to remain in their line of fire. Or you can blitz them down with the shotgun or tommygun. In duke when the stupid chaingun raptors show up you're pretty much guaranteed to take some unavoidable damage, I mean jeez for a prime example of that just look at the first second of the first level of episode 3. I think the reason Blood's locations feel so much more real world than Duke or other games at the time is the consistent scale. Every building is scaled as if you could go inside it, whereas in Duke, Doom 2, pretty much any other game with cities in, the inaccessable buildings are always far far smaller than anything you can go inside and it really breaks up the games internal consistency. They also have more or less believable internal configurations, to an extent, whereas Duke and Doom end up with a lot of buildings that make 0 sense as part of anything but a game.

All of the stuff you mentioned (which I agree with) can sort of be lumped under the main reason I love Blood, which is 'atmosphere'. Each episode has a really great flow to it, the levels make sense back to back, and it feels like you're in a believable world. The Shining parody is also my favorite level, but there are a bunch of other levels that play with the way things progress, like the level where you're climbing a crumbling ruined temple built in to a mountain side surrounded by lava, or the intro level to the (I think) 4th episode, where you're crawling your way through a town that's being strafed by bombers. I'd kill for a true-to-spirit successor to Blood.

It might have something to do with my love for horror, but the gameplay is so well tuned that it makes an awesome experience no matter what.

cf. Blood, I've got a GOG copy in the queue to finish out my early-FPS education at some point. It's unfortunate that bmouse is still quite wonky as mouse behavior goes... an oldschool FPS is more "comfort gaming" for me than anything else, and I can't be arsed to re-learn all-keyboard FPSing or deal with crappy mousing. It's too bad for me that the "XL Engine" guy is focussed in on his Daggerfall support instead of Blood or Dark Forces.

I haven't played DF yet so I'm less interested in engine testing and whatnot, and more interested in just seeing the game, so that's the point at which I'd give it a try. Back in December he had posted "I plan on releasing the DaggerXL Beta within the first month of the new year and then will proceed to get the DarkXL Beta out soon afterwards" but I think family issues intervened.

After all the Blood talk around here (especially the brilliant pitch from FirstPersonShitter) I've decided to give it another whirl. Previously I've always been repulsed by it not having a proper sourceport and no out of the box mouselook support, but with bmouse and a couple of line edits it works out okay. Four levels in, I think the level design is amazing. Very lifelike setpieces that are fun to navigate, secrets are mostly hidden just right so you can find most of them with a bit of exploration and following visual cues, and the gunplay is nice too. Plus the atmosphere, the music is creepy and pretty good. Eh, I can't say anything that hasn't been said before, except if you've got any love for 90ies FPSes you owe it to yourself to get into this. I found the first post on this page on the gog forums most helpful for setting up bmouse in dosbox: http://www.gog.com/forum/blood_series/bmouse_0_5_mouse_driver_that_fixes_the_terrible_mouselook_on_dos_build_games/page4

/\/\/\ Thanks for the link. If I were to buy the GoG version of Blood and apply those bmouse edits to the .cfg, is that most/all of what I'd need to do to get it running decently? I know I'm going to get e-poo poo on for this, but a part of my middle-school self kind've liked Blood 2... or at least the demo of the first 1-2 levels. Admittedly, in those days I'd play any FPS that allowed me to use the lovely Diamond S3-based graphics accelerator on which I had dropped way too many weeks of my allowance. However, the one part of Blood 2 that I will always remember as setting it apart from the outdoor environments of Unreal, or the giant breasts in SiN, or Half-Life's multiplayer, was the soldier enemies in the opening science complex who would suicide-bomb you if you knocked their health down low enough. Nevermind that the blood emanating from their "location-specific!" wounds was essentially a rainbow of uniform spheres with red gradient. The experience of pot-shotting them with a low-powered gun until they pulled out two live grenades and then ran at you in a desperate attempt to blow you up before you could put them down was to my 5th grade mind, like, "woh, poo poo." I know other games have used this mechanic since, and probably before (there have long been suicidal enemies in games, just not necessarily ones that would start out normal, especially as humans, then decide to double fist grenades while running after you). For me at the time, it was like the characters in Skyrim doing their typical cowering "I give up" animation, then instead of staying there or eventually just standing back up to perform their standard attack once more, they whip out two hand grenades and chase after you screaming. I am sure this was a lot cooler in my memory than it actually happened though, and I never played more than the free demo.

TheMammoth posted:(there have long been suicidal enemies in games, just not necessarily ones that would start out normal, especially as humans, then decide to double fist grenades while running after you) Not exactly the same, but in Rise of the Triad, there were enemies who would kneel on the ground and beg for mercy, and if you didn't shoot them, they would fall onto the ground. Sometimes they would get back up and attack you once your turned around, after you had thought they had already died once.

I did play Blood, long ago. It's very brutal and its weapons are...unusual compared to Doom's efficient but practical kit. I disagree that Doom is for the weak but I am thinking of eighteen years of user-made levels pushing in dozens of different directions. I love Blood's base game and its themes, though, and love how punchy it feels next to Duke, which always felt off as far as Physics and combat are concerned. Blasting an axe zombie with the shotgun and watching it rocket backwards with a roar = pure gold.

Huh, whenever I try to run serpent resurrection I get this error:GZDoom posted:Script error, "serpent.pk3:decorate/weapons" line 9: I can't find any reference to it with google (I will live to regret saying this I am guessing), and I have no idea what could be going wrong. I installed it according to the instructions and it seems to be loading the WADs fine. edit: nevermind I'm retarded my GZDoom was an older version than required. juggalo baby coffin fucked around with this message at 19:43 on Mar 24, 2013 |

Jblade posted:That CON command won't work with the Megaton port, since it uses code specific to the Eduke32 port. If you want to play without slimers you'll have to download Eduke32, but you won't get the new menu or Steam achievements or anything like that (if you're bothered by that) Slimers are the little green blobs that climb on your face, right? Are people really that annoyed by them? They're a pretty pointless and annoying enemy, but compared to the chaingun lizards and the exploding drones, I always found them a minor nuisance at worst.
