Is 10x DOOM still knocking around? I remember using that mod and the Call of Duty weapon pack and just ripping levels full of like 400 enemies to pieces. It took the enemy spawn, made it spawn 10 more creatures than normal and disabled collision and I think reduced their health? The biggest bummer for me is that it didn't work well for Brutal Doom, the weapons showed up but there were no additional gore effects. If there's a mod like that which plays nicer with more mechanically complex mods that'd be neat.

I used to play a lot 10x Doom with Kins' old ReDoom mod that made gibbed enemies produce showers of chunky meat. It was a goddamn blast.

Googling 'moddb 10x doom' turns up several mods for Doom, Doom II and Brutal Doom. Can't speak to their quality or if they still work with current port versions. Oh and there's one for x100

Thanks for the mod tips folk, I'll start compiling poo poo in a .txt until it's long enough to be worthwhile. Also, speaking of slaughter, I reverted back to the bolognese mod from nashgore because even though Nash's is a little more refined, bolognese creates such horrid vistas.

Insert name here posted:If you don't mind a minor gameplay-changing mod, Smart Scavenger is a pretty neat one; essentially it makes large pickups split into their small pickup counterpart if you can't pickup the whole thing. That's nice, in practical terms you backtracked to unpicked items to be efficient and use the full effect (for example, a +25 health if you were at 85hp), so basically it cuts back the backtracking.

Guillermus posted:SWAT 4 is still good enough even today. But I see there's something going on SA when it comes to police opinions. I'm glad the police has a good image in here compared to the US. Tryhard SWAT players always want to use the stupid poison nonlethal paintball gun, which removes the real challenge of the game, immediately removes any remaining realism element, and is insanely lame.

Dave the Dusk developer was doing a famously bad job a while back of hiding that New Blood has picked up Gloomwood, a Thief/SS2-inspired immersive survival horror-y thing. https://twitter.com/Jollyrogers99/status/1150151585076375552 https://twitter.com/Jollyrogers99/status/1053377472157249536 MAXIMUM Action is an Early Access, gleefully janky attempt to recapture the magic of Half-Life mods like Action HL, The Opera and The Specialists, although New Blood (them again!) have grabbed the steering wheel so it'll likely be worth spending money on in like a year and a half. There's probably more, but that's all that immediately comes to mind and I need to go to bed.

I wish Dark Forces would get some love, what I played (using XL) was pretty good, and I'd love to have it actually working. Yeah, in 2016 -- so like five years after everyone lost interest in it when it became clear he wasn't working on it anymore -- he dumped the source code on Github. As far as I know nothing's been done with it since.

Oh, that's not enough code to actually do anything with (intentionally, though since the XL Engine website is down I can't link the blog post explaining why), which is why nobody's done anything with that. Lucius intended that as a teaser and the stuff that actually worked would be added once the first release happened. That didn't happen. Now, this was after Lucius decided to completely rework the code of the XL Engine, and last year some of the OpenMW guys apparently got their hands on a copy of the old code. However, looking at the end of that thread, they've not really done anything with it for a while. Edit: Found his post, Dec 2015, italics and bolding are straight from the blog post: Lucius posted:That said, however, there are some surprises in store for the release so I will not be uploading all of the code until the Beta is published. The repository will be incomplete for now but that will be rectified for the release. Also this version of the XL Engine was rebuilt recently and so it does not contain all of the functionality past builds have had. However I am moving over the code and refactoring it to fit in the new engine as I need it but until then you will see holes. No game specific functionality is pushed and the code will not build as-is. Again this will be corrected for the release – this is just getting the ball rolling. Anyway, Gloomwood looks neat, I hadn't heard of it before, but I'll be keeping an eye on it. catlord fucked around with this message at 20:27 on Jul 31, 2019 |

lucius dropped by Doomworld to announce the project and I believe it was Quasar (Eternity engine & Nightdive) that immediately asked him when he was going to post his source code. “When it’s done, I don’t want to put something unfinished out there” was basically the response. mh, the author of the DirectQ Quake engine, had some similar issues that made me question if him and lucius was the same person. Both had an unwillingness to post “unfinished” source code, both had lengthy absences, both ultimately vanished without a trace.

Rocket Pan posted:To be clear this isn't new, the NIN secret has always been edited since the console ports, the original PC version is the only version to have it intact (and strangely in Doom3 BFG, which is odd). The OG Xbox port disabled the secret entirely. I'm... really surprised they've taken it out, honestly? Like, Trent Reznor is openly a hardcore id fan, did contract work for them twice, and owns all his IP (meaning no potential for Ion Maiden-esque legal fuckery). There's not really any danger from keeping it beyond Reznor noticing and going "heh heh, I remember that" on Twitter. SelenicMartian posted:Were they trying to pay homage to Fear Factory's Genexus with it? There's a lot of FF in Mick Gordon's compositions, but I'd characterize it as more Demanufacture/Obsolete worship than Genexus (since Genexus is basically just "those albums but moreso" anyways). e: There's also a lot of Broken era NIN in there, especially in Flesh & Metal.

There's not really any danger from keeping it beyond Reznor noticing and going "heh heh, I remember that" on Twitter. That's not how law works though, and definitely not how corporate lawyers work. They're not gonna risk a multi-million dollar lawsuit on "hey Reznor is a fan, its cool". He did work for them, but did he work for them when Doom was made? I don't think so. I think that was just the typical "fly under the radar" thing back then. Nobody was gonna sue Id, they were ripping off music left and right and nobody really knew or cared. The industry is different now. Its big. If there was no official contract where Reznor said "you can use the NIN trademark in Doom" then that's that. Also, look at stuff like Iron Maiden suing Ion Maiden. Even if Reznor is cool with it, there's a possibility there's some record label lawyer who would be able to sue Id even without Reznor knowing. Better for Bethesda to err on the side of caution, sadly. We live in a country whose laws were written by corps for corps.

...er, did you miss the part where he owns all his IP? Because that's kind of the kicker here. If any record labels had a legal stake in the NIN name, you'd be right, but my understanding is that it's all him, in which case it solely hinges on if he'd be okay with it (and there's not any reason to assume "no" there). Like, to my knowledge, this is why he's been able to do stuff like release Ghosts I-IV as Creative Commons (which a record label would have absolutely tried to bar him from). In the events where he has worked with labels post-Fragile, he's had them by the nuts, not vice-versa.

You're still dependent on him not changing his mind if there's no contract in place. Bethesda isn't gonna risk that. ...er, did you miss every other part of my post? Like okay cool but ... there's still other things I said.

Started off Perfect Hatred with 13 health and three shells, and panicked the first couple of tries before I realized there's like 50-60 health where you start. And then I stopped panicking, but I still haven't gotten past the start.
