wanted to discuss sensitivity for doom

for a really long time my sens is 11in/360degree with no mouse accel in all games, quake, csgo, halo, i just break out a ruler and calibrate it

is this too slow for doom? or am i just getting old or something. can't flickshot as well as i used to. i've also been dicking around in cpma and i can't my strafe jump is fine but my bunny hop is terrible, so i changed it to 8in/360 and have been retrainining my aim against bots for a few days now

telling me what your sens in game is useless because everyone has a different DPI on their mouse. you can figure it out by getting a ruler and measuring how far your mouse moves against a corner texture

if you play with accel, the numbers aren't comparable. i played with accel in college when was a kid because i had a tiny desk but once i was able to buy my own furniture that changed pretty quick

>>12443672
>is this too slow for doom?
my nibber, doom was designed to be playable with keyboard only

>>12443672
I use second out of four sensitivity mode in my logitech g305 mouse and 16 sensitivity in choco/crispy/woof/dsda with 0 acceleration. My goal for all games is to make 180 degree rotation a comfortable swipe.

From the text file:
>Ever since I switched to Linux, I've been trying out various ways to continue making Doom maps and I eventually settled on the Eureka Editor. It's janky and doesn't have anywhere near as many features as GZDoom Builder (it doesn't even have a proper curve tool) but I would much rather use it than frustrate myself with WINE. After learning how to use it, I decided to make some maps with it. I call this wad Linux Jank as a reference to my learning all the strange quirks of Eureka.

I'm pretty sure I've seen anons voicing similar opinions about mapping on linux here, which is what drew me to this, also the name is funny. The category is uv-max again since I prepared this a while ago. All the maps in this wad are pretty short and fun, I'd recommend you play the whole thing if you like this one, there are only 6 total.

I self convinced that the Cleric shield in Hexen is not op and that it simply makes the early game better and that Baratus still mogs him in speed and dps, comfort me.

>>12443809
>the Cleric shield in Hexen is not op and that it simply makes the early game better
Lots of effort for something that could be solved by just buffing the mace.

>>12443640
I like it a little bit, it's just not unique enough. It's Doom with gimmicks. I don't know how you make a game feel like you're a proper wizard, but this ain't it.

Also I don't really feel like the enemies are that memorable. For an FPS game, that's a big problem.

>>12443810
I like the solution and I don't mind the uniqueness.
After all, the warrior has a combo attack and the mage a ranged weapon that costs no mana and pierces enemies.

>>12443846
Interesting how they decided to feature the fighter with a shield on store pages. I still consider it a missed opportunity to not give the fighter and mage a new unique ability as well - all the moreso when cleric was already arguably the best class, even in spite of having a slower start on Winnowing Hall.

>>12443529
I fucking hate the Ironwail sourceport with every inch of my being. This buggy piece of shit crashes nonstop and offers fuckall for improvements aa opposed to Quakespasm Spiked.
>MUH GORILLION FRAMES
Yeah, and for every extra frame you can squeeze is another instance it crashes. If it wasn't for Mjolnir I wouldn't touch this fuck. Fuck this retarded dev and his faggoty, glitch, buggyass, unfinished sourceport and double-fuck anyone like the trannies who made QBJ3 that suggest using it.

Fuck.

>>12443887
Tell us how you really feel.

>>12443853
I don't feel the Cleric is the best... I feel the fighter can mow through enemies faster and now his axe has even more dps with the increased speed and his flechettes now can be thrown farther, allowing him to easily kill that rare badly positioned Serpent or Slaughtasaur.

I experimented a little with the shield and it definitely doesn't help in bullet hell situations and even against melee crowds it's not as fast and versatile as the gauntlets (you can switch target and still deal damage with the)and can't demolish crowds like the Sapphire wand.

The shield combo totally mogs single enemies or sparse groups, but then again so can the gauntlets and the wand.

The cleric has three really, really solid slot 2-4 weapons and a really good flachette effect. It's worth mentioning the lifedrain present on the serpent staff when used as melee, as well.
The fighter was always the best at 'clearing the chaff' but suffers when it comes to dealing with enemies at range.

With the mage buff of being able to shoot through frozen targets, I never felt the need to whip that wand out in my lastest controller+skill 4 playthrough.

Very solid level. The rocket ammo needed for the baron to make that ordeal fast for the exit has such an effect on the overall level.

>>12444106
ROTT is like 70% rocket launchers, any enemy that carries one will drop it for you, and you should use that to splat other enemies.
Projectile weapons are kinda like temporary powerups, you only carry one and you use it until it's empty, but if you drop or replace a partially fired one, you can go back for it later.

It's a longshot, but does anyone have this one mod that an anon uploaded (I think it was here, could've been an altchan) that turned Doom into a 6DOF shooter?

Furdoom will remain be free of charge for everyone after all the required work is done, devs work plenty to make sure things feel and work fine. You shouldn't be expected to pay if you can't, it's just there as an option if you can afford it.

There's daily updates on there just be patient, a rushed game is forever bad.

Hands anon, Wyvern stuff is live on staging branch if you want to give that a go. That will require more work because of the upgrade. Mind the hammers, too. They were moved to an overlay to make it easier on the assets. Your edit should be hammerless or it'll look weird in-game. Next up is the Hammerhead, but there's no ETA on that. Also, the Executioner received a third frame a while back, might want to check that out as well. I'll keep you posted as things come up. Right now I don't expect to be changing anything else visually besides the plasma minigun. And one last thing: Raptor received another frame too, where the "bolt" is pulled back. Ez copy paste job, that one.

I get the impression that this is his first time here.

I would like to hear the opinion of someone who actually completed Hexen with the new Nightdive's rebalance about the shield.

Like, does it deflect both shots from Slaughtasaurs (huge if yes).
And the entire projectile sequence of the Bishops?

>>12445820
They facilitate fast gameplay (Wolf, Doom, Quake, they all let you go fast as absolute balls, and they can really reward you for doing that right), but the games also allow for more methodical approaches a lot of the time. You can slowly crawl through much of those games and make it, you just won't beat any PAR times.

Personally, I tend to between fast and slow, depending on what the situation calls for.

Unfortunately it's hard to tell since bots count as real players on metrics (and in the server browser), but it's not as alive as Quake Live most days.

To explain what was going on here, it was supposed to give the illusion of deep liquid by having the blood flat bleed over an untextured area, but the mapmaker didn't set it up correctly.

I went with deleting the sector. I fail to see the effect sorry. In nugget it looks the same for me with or without the sector but I'm almost sure it will be broken in the future when it merges woof 16 code.

Finished Abysm X. Took almost four and a half hours, a bit too easy, though being in beta and only having easy and normal difficulty, might change in the actual release. Also turned out I screwed up and went to the second line of stages, which is why the secret stage had a boss way too hard for what I had.
The stages lack a bit of imagination to them, the majority are just castles of various flavors, the outliers are the secret stages and the futuristic super tank one.

>>12445951
Addendum:
If the guys behind the inquisitor series and abysm linked up, with the former doing the maps and the latter everything related to the combat, they could make something really amazing.

It renders as intended in Nugg, but it's wasted because there's nothing to submerge and you can't reach in there.
You should generally use Boom/MBF21's Create Fake Floor & Ceiling function to get that effect working reliably across ports. But again, without the player being able to go to such a spot, or no monster or object in it clipping through that fake floor, the effect would be wasted and just look like a normal surface.

The custom weapons and items from Heartland are an example of EDF gameplay changes you couldn't really do with mbf21, stuff like the new item pickups and dual wielding weapons. The enemies from that wad are pretty simple and could probably still be recreated (some of them are literally just from valiant). Overall, EDF is more like decorate than dehacked, so you could do a lot more.

The hub level thingy is a combination of UDMF line actions, ACS and Emapinfo. It could be done a lot more easily in zdoomy ports, but it's totally impossible with mbf21/umapinfo.

Would you consider it disrespectful for someone to play your WAD with heavy-weight gameplay mods? I don't think so but then again all my wads are fairly basic single-map limit-removing/boom wads. Maybe it feels different if it's a megawad that you've worked meticulously on.

>>12447470
Not a level designer, but I might sometimes feel something if the author is adamant about it in their text that they'd rather people play it first without mods. On the other hand, I don't always want to have to have played a map 'as intended' if I want to blind playthrough it with a mod I'm enjoying.
If you freakout about it like that Zero Brightness guy, my sympathy starts to go out the window.

>>12447470
No. Author's intent is bullshit, unless you're making a new experience (such as a partial or total conversion) that has a quite a few actual changes as it is people should be able to play it with whatever mod they want. Honestly, even with changes people should do whatever they want even if turns into a shitsmear of vaseline, 4k textures and bloom.

Acting like you dictate how a 30 year old game is meant to be played is gay and retarded (just like DW) is pathetic.

>>12447470

Playing gameplay mods with Doom, you tacitly admit that you change the original vision of the levels, and that you may very well actually break something, and the only one responsible for that is YOU.
That is just what it is. Sometimes I wanna play a gameplay mod, and sometimes I wanna play vanilla(ish, Nugget features and all), I'm no purist god, and I recognize fully that part of the great fun of Classic Doom is that you can turn it topsy turvy with mods, saying others shouldn't play my maps with mods would be hypocrisy.

There's also that little prospect of "experiencing the maps as intended the first time," which is a nice little thought, and a hard requirement for just the base game, but not necessarily a realistic thing to always expect for pwads. I have played some mapsets multiple times, and some only one time, and sometimes that was just with a mod and oh well!
Maybe the value I saw with your mapset was "This would go well with that mod." and that was it. Maybe I then liked it so much that I then played it vanilla too, but that's never guaranteed.

The short of it is that you can never have strong expectations or demands on what your audience will do when you're working in such a moddable medium.

Acceptable enough, I suppose, though I would have preferred normal SNDINFO just for consistency with existing support and uses.

For Boom/MBF21, you define an ANIMDEF lump. Editing these is straightforward, though Slade is buggy about it, always save your .wad before editing your ANIMDEF (there should always be an empty entry at the end of the table). You also define switch textures there.

GzDoom has its own ANIMDEFS which is a thousand times fucking better, because you just write in the patch names and duration in plaintext, and that's it.

Vanilla has it hardcoded, only the frames that are there are part of animation sequences.
The classic workaround here is to plain have multiple texture types as one single patch (like multiple different kinds of switches or different colors of water falls side by side), which DOES leave you needing to be mindful of texture alignment at times, and also visplane limits if you're hardcore vanilla, but it works.
Of note is that, while Doom 2 doesn't have blue waterfall textures, they are in fact defined as an animation sequence, WFALL1 - WFALL4, so if you just put in new patches with those names, they will actually work and animate. This is what they did in Plutonia and TNT.

It should be possible to backport quite a lot of very fun shit which people have been doing with Decorate for the past 20 years. Just, you know, with demos and all.
Probably couldn't go whole hog on Zero Tolerance or Zen Dynamics, but likely you could adapt parts of them.

Fuck, a demake of Zen Dynamics to work as an example demo would be kind of funny.

>>12448807
>Question: why is this game on Unity? It looks graphically closer to Doom3/Morrowind and it runs like shit
This sadly applies to too many games. The “runs like shit” is a variable, but the amount of newer shooters that look slightly better than Doom with “minimum system requirements” above and beyond what Doom 3 needs is concerning. I would guess it’s just easier than having to learn an older/authentic engine, and it’s more straightforward to port onto consoles.

>>12448807
>It looks graphically closer to Doom3/Morrowind
That's crazy range. At least say Doom 3/Oblivion.
>and it runs like shit
Modern optimization problems are caused by a lower barrier to entry in gamedev, if we are talking about indie. Ever since Unity and UE4 you don't really have to be a programmer to make a 3D game.
Think of it as extension of those old and running like shit Blitz3D/FPS Creator games.

unity and unreal are moddable enough, nobodys gonna bother making mods for random gzdoom games on steam, as evident by all the games that are on steam. selaco is the only exception i can think of and that is largely because it had a massive marketing campaign

>>12448960
>nobodys gonna bother making mods for random gzdoom games on steam
Not what I meant, maybe “configurable” would have been better for you: Just changing how the game plays, editing levels, changing weapon behaviors, art - that’s all “modding” to me. Opening their files via Slade gives me so much to readily change, configure, and access. Only other thing I recall being similarly close was Wrath.

Played Ashes 2063 today.

I thought it was pretty cool in some areas. Neat maps for the most part with bits of variety like the motorcycle. Not sure how I feel about not being able to backtrack at certain points in a map. Some of those locations made sense to have them, such as large encounters. But they weren't that egregious while I was playing to be overly annoying.

Weapons were nice to use for the most part. When I got hold of the rifle, it didn't really feel like there was any location to really utilize it. A neat gun kinda sidelined by all the others in a given scenario.

Dialogue between characters was alright. I don't have any particular complaints about it. As for the story, it's there and kinda interesting. Did an alright job of establishing some sort of mystery. I'm looking forward to tackling Afterglow later on.

why would they make a mod for a game that nobody played when they can just instead make a mod for doom that uses all the same systems and have a bigger chance of someone playing your mod?

>>12449116
>why would they make a mod for a game that nobody played when they can just instead make a mod for doom that uses all the same systems and have a bigger chance of someone playing your mod?
It’s not about “releasing mods” to anyone moreso changing and editing the game however I’d like for things like Hedon, Selaco, Supplice, etc. literally any GZD game. Same idea behind fucking and tinkering with any Doom mod to your liking - and while some people “release” their changes to mods, that’s missing the point.

okay finally you made your point clear, i didn't consider personal modifications but you're still a very small minority of people
gzdoom and all of its derivatives can offer this control sure but the downsides that come with this engine are not worth it. most steamies aren't capable of doing anything but clicking the big dumb play button on steam. gzdoom can often break for retarded reasons on various systems so it's not worth dealing with that shit over unity or unreal, which are guaranteed to at least work properly if you code your game right

Somewhat paired down variant of Decorate which is supposed to be demo compatible, so that it can be used for "middle" level ports like DSDA and Woof.
It's been discussed for some time in places, but it seems that it's finaly begun being implemented somewhere.

It'll be a lot like Decorate, so you don't need something to be a DeHacked table of states, or a middleman like DecoHack to make sense of it, so you could directly read and write it clearly, and it should also be much more flexible and less hardcoded.
MBF21's expanded DeHacked lets you do a lot without the frame or actor limits, and its new functions, but adding things onto DeHacked is a pain, and gets in the way of optimizing for advanced ports.
A side benefit is that Declarate would be very little work for ZDoom family ports to make compatible, since they already use Decorate, and that Decorate is already well documented, also potential future functions and features are already outlined and documented.

So, say that Declarate implements about 45% of Decorate's functions, and that lets you do LOTS, but there's this one neat Decorate function that would be cool and useful to have, adding it in would have little friction.

I assume that calling ACS scripts, for instance, will probably be beyond the scope of what Declarate intends to do, so that'd be a pretty substantial limit, but you could still do an absolute assload of neat and different things without ACS script additions.

>>12448972
Ashes 2063 and Dead Man Walking are great, but I didn't like the change from linear level design to semi-open world in Afterglow and stopped playing that after an hour or do. It didn't feel necessary or important to me, especially since it has a quest system which honestly just turned me off since I expected something less roleplay-intensive. The dialogue I saw was fine apart from one guy who has an endless amount of lines trying to bullshit his way into your pockets in the first settlement.

>>12449182
>okay finally you made your point clear, i didn't consider personal modifications but you're still a very small minority of people
That's fine, when I mentioned it in >>12448934 it was provided as more of a consolation anyways, never really talking about using it over Unity or UE. In fact, my initial post in >>12448853 even touched upon why people would prefer using those two engines over something traditional like Doom or Quake.

That's wonderful, mapping with this bandaid on my finger tip feels weird and awkward as fuck, definitely less precise.

Hands anon, the Hammerhead sprite stuff has been pushed to the staging branch. It should be pretty easy to fix since no new sprites were added. That concludes the gun reworks for the foreseeable future.

>>12448853
Unless you're using an emulator or an old ass computer, using an "authentic" engine would be a pain in the ass since the tools to work on it might not even work on modern OSes. Even using sourceports can be a pain in the cock since, depending on which game engine you pick, you can be hamstrung by a lot of limitations.

Most people won't enjoy coding their own engine or playing around in an engine's code so this leaves two options, work with an older engine which is (presumably) more optimized and just deal with the myriad limitations that come with it or use something like Unity where you can almost certainly find many examples that can be adapted and good documentation of how to do a lot of shit.

>>12449509
>you can be hamstrung by a lot of limitations.
in gzdoom/uzdoom's case, a big problem is the GPL license. what this means is that you can't have steamworks integration on steam, and that shit handles achievements and workshop support. many steamies refuse to buy games if they don't have achievements on steam, so if you're making a commercial game with gzdoom you're shooting yourself in the foot.

and yes i know selaca has achievements on steam but
1. they use an entirely separate program that runs alongside the game to act as a relay between the steamworks API and gzdoom
2. it's not even clear if the method they use is even compliant with the GPL license, the selaca team could very well be violating the GPL agreement by doing this, it's just that nobody has went to court over this to truly know the situation.

Awesome, I had less time than I thought this weekend, nearly done with the Wyvern - REALLY hype that it's getting an upgrade option, apparently.
Then, since I'm not an actual artist, I'll have to pull all sorts of Frankensprite magic to make some hands for the spellcasting.

>>12449526
That one does sound like a pain in the ass, but talking as someone working on a project in AlephOne, there's more immediate limitations like
>Can't adjust how long an animation sits on any particular frame. You just have to bullshit things a lot.
>This is doubly true for animated textures because repeating a frame makes the animation script shit itself
>Flying enemy's death animations/corpses break if you try to give them more than one.
>Editing tools have a conniption if you break from assumed, undocumented assumptions like having more bitmaps than animation frames

And that's on top of the question of if Bungie could actually sue you if you decide to try and sell your project just because they may or may not have a copyright on the file format used by the engine.

>>12449556
You can give it a test fire on the ship. It's pretty much complete. Requires two batteries, which I think I forgot to mention in the helptext, lol.

>>12449559
yeah i know but what i was getting that is that even if you power through the bullshit of the sourceports themselves, you'd still be faced with the fact that these sourceports are not compatible with the expectations and dynamics of the modern gaming landscape. so it means it's not worth it (not for commercial projects at least)

>>12449508

Looks like some different animation, just looking at the sprites. Not sure how much different it'll function in game.

>>12449673
Doubled down on the engine mechanics but made feedback more apparent visually on the HUD, reduced the number of batteries to 2, added fuel requirement, and made sustained fire a lot easier to maintain by decoupling RPM gain and heat buildup from shooting (you can do both at the same time thanks to the power of overlays). Overall it's still a gimmicky weapon but the gimmick is more worth it. Also we do a bit of realism where you could stall the engine if you leave it running on 2+ gear on very low RPM. Now that would be embarrassing.
Still need to do a balance pass.

>>12449805
is this for Deathstrider? i never could get into that mod, like i didn't figure out how to reload guns lol

Yeah Deathstrider. The reloading can be tricky on top of having to manage and refill mags, but can feel pretty fulfilling once you get used to it. Practicing at the range can help.

iirc (and it's been years, but it hardly matters since the last public update was in 2023) you're pretty much doomed to save scum at every corner until you nickel and dime enough resources. and that's only if you're playing the scientist, as he's the only one who can properly handle and repair late game energy guns.
i love the way its weapons look and feel, but fuck man there are just way better designed and put together alternatives if you're looking for something slow-paced and grounded. kinda makes sense for a bd fork, still kinda funny that it is one.

>>12449842
using the energy guns saves you from refilling mags, using break-actions or guns with integral magazines saves you from handling mags entirely.

This is also my feeling about LitDOOM. The gun handling, the actual physical gameplay, is nice. But everything else is too mean-spirited. It's only playable if I crank up the resource spawn rates (which mercifully you can do).
In fact, LitDOOM's settings allow you to adjust settings so that it plays like a much lighter Brutal Doom fork. Disable weapon degradation, turn the monster damage down to the BD normal and all that other stuff too.
Actually now that I'm looking in the settings I think today's bad experience may have been because they were reset to default. I remember tweaking them to be less cunty a while back.

It probably helps that it replaced 99% of enemies with feeble melee only foes with the last 1% being full-on horror movie villains (mostly lifted from PM albiet but there's some unique stuff in it)

My first time through it was getting wrecked and then trying a modified build that had a mod to make items drop from anything that dies. A pile of maggots was a giant loot pinata.
