@light prism Neat. You going to use the DooM engine to make a platforming cat-based game?
That's what it looks like from the GIFs you gave us
timber bridge
it looks good tho
pastel anchor
hell yea
royal wave
Nintendo would throw a massive fit over it
light prism
Meow.
toxic terrace
Yeah.
Besides, it was never a good game in the first place.
EarthBound on the other hand is one of my favorite games.
The NES was known for Nintendo Hard for a reason.
light prism
i cant imagine it would be that tough to make a tilebased rpg
i made a movement system based on tiles
both 2d and 3d
with interpolation between cells
unreal oyster
earthbound isn't tile-based
light prism
MHStarCraft: How the hell would that work?
well in that case, even easier
just some kind of isometric/topdown camera with bumpable instanced combat that teleports you to an arena
turnbased combat with buttons and standard diceroll calcs or whatevs
unreal oyster
if you were to completely recreate the mother series, you'd also need to do angle comparisons when initiating combat
you can bump an enemy from behind to get a first strike on it
unreal oyster
and enemies can do the same to you
light prism
easy enough
unreal oyster
oh, yeah, it wouldn't make it much more difficult
light prism
i did start out on a turnbased combat system but never really finished it
Doomguy used Phoenix Down
lavish hollow
Doomguy used Star Platinum
haughty flower
I noticed lots of textures have abbreviated names, why is that?
royal wave
Doom engine can only handle texture names with a certain max of characters
haughty flower
Ooh, that makes sense
light prism
zdoom however can refer textures with full paths in quotes
not sure if this implies greater than 8 character filenames though?
polar horizon
Eyooo, Just wanted to ask; Anyone know how to replace the M_DOOM logo in a mod? I keep trying to use mine that I created, but it doesn't seem to want to work
light prism
its always worked for me
polar horizon
is there a specific way of doing it? Just taking a M_DOOM Logo and plopping it into the wad/pk3/zip?
polar horizon
Ah so It cant be PNG correct?
polar horizon
I'll have to keep toying around with it, thanks for the info; I'll let you know how it all goes
lavish hollow
PNG images are used by basically every doom mod involving images lol
light prism
its because indexed format can be very well optimized
polar horizon
Im pretty new to this sort've stuff. I already got slade, and somewhat of the basics for doom modding down
Looking up the wiki stuff and all that, least to the best of what im able to find
polar horizon
ZIp; Gonna make it a PK3 in a bit
I really don't know why I made it Zip.
Done; and I managed to get the M_doom to show
light prism
well a pk3 is literally just a zip file anyway
you can even just run a folder as long as its organized in the same way
light prism

looking into altering the easy difficulty to change everything to black and white like They Live since you put on Sunglasses
currently using the SJW script from TrumpDoom to switch textures and music when it is selected
under a bit of a deadline so I haven't had the chance to delve into ACS as much as I like
considering using a mod I saw that changed things black and white to make this change easy in the meantime
inner zealot
Why just easy?
exotic moss
because it is the way SJW script was coded
and it is more of an optional mode really
atm it is just for my friends
lavish hollow
Holy shit hardcore parkour
light prism
i was thinkin of making walljumps more like megaman X style
clamp to wall and slowly slide down
lavish hollow
Wouldn't that fuck up the cats claws?
light prism
either that or make only certain surfaces able to be clung to
lavish hollow
Yeah that's a good idea
I was actually gonna suggest that but I didn't think there would be that many places to do that, unless this is some kind of puzzle game
light prism
nah going for more actiony
i was gonna reuse most of my doomslug code
so you'll be able to switch between Y-Planes as well as jump onto platforms from beneath
i also need to add rippable curtains
i guess theres probably an easier way to do one-way platforms in zscript
if only i knew zscript
light prism
turn off your fog machine
golden drum
The difference between opengl fog and software fog is wayyyy too great
light prism
yes
golden drum
and it screws up the balancxe of my map
light prism
dont use it if you plan to make software compatible stuff
golden drum
Look at that
light prism
or reduce the density heaps and use very close to black colors
golden drum
Compared to this
light prism
i know
software doesnt know what to do with fog
because of palette banding and such
golden drum
hmm
reduce the density heaps and use close to black colors?
as in turn down the fog density and use a darker fade color?
or what?
light prism
yes
golden drum
to be fair tho, the crazy fog does make for interesting gameplay
peeking around the pillars and staying close to the wall
makes it more spooky
I think it would be nice if we could set a seperate fog density for software and opengl
light prism
i think you can
check the video mode cvar, adjust sector fade
a lot of effort though
easier to just say 'use gl'
you cant please everybody
golden drum
Well this is for the megawad and I don't want to restrict everyone
And I don't mind a challenge
light prism
if youre already using ACS you have therefore limited the port to zdoom related
but in that case there are no other limits
since zdoom will interpret any map format and stuff
lavish hollow
any map format?
golden drum
doesn't doomsday have its own format?
golden drum
Woah\
Hardcore, man
hey what's that server with the screaming doom guy with glowing eyes?
lavish hollow
That's the brutal doom testing server
golden drum
Hey why do people play chocolate and crispy doom instead of direct3d software 360x240 gzdoom?
They look pretty much the same to me
aside from demo compatibility
lavish hollow
Chocolate and Crispy are more accurate to vanilla, and more pure
golden drum
but in what way
for the person with the nostalgia boner, what benefit is there in chocolate as opposed to gzdoom software rendered
lavish hollow
It's not about benefits, it's about accuracy
light prism
its not truly accurate unless you're 10 years old playing it on an ancient computer
golden drum
Gzdooms software tendered looks pretty accurate to me
Play at a the vanilla res, turn off interpolation and you're set
So you two know that doom was officially ported to Linux back in the 90s right?
lavish hollow
Probably
golden drum
Well it should be available on steam imo
Or steam should at least allow Linux users to download the wad

prisma saddle
Whys the kitty green anyway?
light prism
because fuck you thats why
jazz jackrabbit was green
take your anti green sentiment elsewhere
prisma saddle
I'm not anti green I was just curious.
light prism
its got player translation range and green is my standard player color
i would like him to be black normally but i think that might make him hard to see if i keep the background style
prisma saddle
Ah.
light prism
green stands out super well atm
prisma saddle
I'd make it a purple or blue personally.
light prism
the standard purple and blue are too dark
prisma saddle
Maybe add some rim lighting?
golden drum
@light prism Make the cat grey
light prism
but the background is grey...
it needs to be something that consistently stands out against its surroundings
golden drum
lolwut the background is black
light prism
sorry rather the background is monochrome
which makes the cat blend into it too easily
golden drum
Well the background has black and white, thus grey would stand out against both
light prism
yeah, not as much as red or green though
timber bridge
he has no soul
light prism
umbral sail
yellow looks meh imo
light prism
i want him to be black really
golden drum
maybe change the background
light prism
but i cant have the backgrounds all white af
golden drum
make it brighter or something
umbral sail
black would fit the most but I see where youre coming from
golden drum
make the bricks light grey and the pillars black
umbral sail
not sure if thats a option but how about white outlines?
light prism
at that resolution they would be pretty thick outlines
but i can try
i was also thinking some sort of vignette or 'light' effect around your character would make him stand out more
timber bridge
what about... light gray?
light prism
any monochrome shade will have issues blending with the environment at certain points
i guess that works
umbral sail
looks good
lavish hollow
@light prism maybe have the color of the cat change against different backgrounds
inner zealot
Could go for a Super Hot thing
light prism
@lavish hollow - Doing that in a single scene is a bit of a pain
if i split it into rooms and ditch scrolling maybe
polar horizon
So is there a possible way of making a monster resistant to certain projectiles? If so, where should I start?

timber bridge
oh no they will harm the cat :(
light prism
i made it so they squirm faster when theyre 'angry'
and they explode if they get up close
prisma saddle
I do really like the eye system you added.
light prism
well its the only way to really have them show any emotion heh
the code is kinda cool, the regular states use the "####" (use previous sprite name) and it just enters a quick state with one frame name (SLU2 for up, SLU3 for diagonal, etc)
then returns to the regular states
also now once they get angry they dont turn away from you unless you are sufficiently far away
exotic moss
ok another stupid question
my Slade is fucked up
out of nowhere
not sure why...I uninstalled it still the same
tried other mods
light prism
dunno, i dont use slade for map editing
i cant even tell what the problem is
from that screenshot
exotic moss
the little grey circles are things
they should be colored
usually
now they are all grey
not sure
haven't learned Doombuilder yet
I like Slade but this is fucked up
I mean you can't tell what that shit is
will try the Beta
same thing
man
what it should look like
light prism
use gzdb heh
nothing against slade it just feels like the map editing functionality is tacked on rather than built from the ground up
exotic moss
when I use gzdb it keeps showing me erorrs and shit hehe my mod is a mess
won't show everything properly
on Slade DIscord now hope they can help
just like to use it for simple changes
exotic moss
nope
not my mod
thank God
not a total fuck up
although it isn't hot shit it is a jokewad
but anyway
for others info on that bug
there's an intel driver bug that causes that, you'll have to set the thing shadow opacity to 0 in preferences (map editor -> display -> things), or untick 'enable point sprites if supported' in opengl preferences (general -> opengl)
my shitty ass computer casued the bug as usual
this GPU Radeon/intel integrated shit is for the birds
circa 2010
anyway maybe that info will help some other person with a shitty setup
later folks
thanks for attempting to help again MisterCat you are a scholar
oh and fixed that other bug thanks to you

Hey, does anyone know how to convert Doom Hexen to Doom UDMF?
I'm making my map in GZDoom Builder
weak dune
Ok
light prism
done
weak dune
There's only one option, Doom in Hexen
light prism
you need to go to preferences->game configurations and set up one of the UDMF modes
preferably Doom 2 (UDMF)
weak dune
Ok, just a sec
light prism
youll need to point it to DOOM2.WAD and your port of choice for testing
weak dune
Ok

Okay, another problem (sigh)
I'm trying to make a linedef activate a script
So I put Action 80 in it
And I put in Script 1 (void) {}
But when I run it, when I press use on the linedef, it says P_StartScript: Unknown Script 1
I'm using Zandronum with Zandronum ACS
light prism
did the script compile successfully
weak dune
Yes
light prism
hrmf!
weak dune
Now, I tried putting the same code in the automatically open SCRIPTS tab, and it's not compiling
Does that mean something?
light prism
did you have "#include "zcommon.acs"' at the top
weak dune
Sure, one moment
light prism
you need #include "zcommon.acs" at the header of a script lump
otherwise it wont recognize anything
light prism
you need more parameters
its probably erroring out because its missing at least the 'speed' parameter
weak dune
But it should still recognize the script, shouldn't it?
I'll try it
Do you know offhand the default door speed?
Nvm, all good
Thank you so much! Once again, you are a GOD
One more thing before I leave
Is there a way I can make the message larger? (like the messages in the Zombie Horde mod, if you have played it)
weak dune
I know about the wiki, thx
How do I check the compile log?
I'm getting an error from HudMessage(s:"3");
Nvm, just forgotten parameters i think
light prism
read the page i linked
weak dune
So, my messages are working, (yay)
This is my script:
However, my GUI is all screwed up
I want it to be in the center
So what do I put in?
light prism
if you do SetHudSize(320, 200, 0); x, y coordinate parameters are from the upper left hand corner of the screen, where 320,200 will be the lower right
if you dont do a SetHudSize then it uses a different coordinate system
if you would read the page i linked it says all of this
light prism
things are drawn at the center of the text/image
so 160,100 would be centre screen if you sethudsize to 320x200, yes
if you add a decimal it changes the alignment
160.1 will cause middle of the screen to be the leftside alignment
160.2 will be right side
weak dune
Do I put this in my HudMessage?
light prism
.1 and .2 top and bottom on the vertical
weak dune
I thought this was for the SetHudSize
light prism
yes, the x,y coordinates of the hudmessage call
weak dune
OOHHHHHHHHH
light prism
SetHudSize is absolute screen size
light prism
no im at work ya dang dingus

prisma saddle
Then again you might have patched that.
light prism
no, i havent changed anything, its just not possible by the code
creatures of the same species can't harm eachother by default
and if they could, their damage output is high enough to kill them instantly, meaning they would die rather than switching targets
light prism
but creatures of the same species cant harm eachother

bold heron
hey i'm trying to make a custom weapon following the gunlabs tutorials and i cant get it to make any sound
help?
royal wave
Most likely you haven't defined your sound in your SNDINFO lump
bold heron
it should just be using the vanilla sounds though
royal wave
Then show your code please
bold heron
i did everything as the tutorial said and according to that it should be playing the shotgun firing sound without any additional setup
royal wave
wait hang on
bold heron
maybe something changed from the zd version the tutorial is using to the latest version
royal wave
You can add this after the firing tick as a work around TNT1 A 0 A_PlaySound ("weapons/shotgf", CHAN_WEAPON)
bold heron
the firing tick is the A_FireBullets line yes?
royal wave
Yes
TNT1 A 0 is a common dummy frame developers will use when defining actions that are supposed to immediately happen with the previous tick
bold heron
okay thanks!
royal wave
TNT1A isn't an actual sprite in game
so setting it for any length longer than 0 will just yield invisible
light prism
well technically it IS a sprite definition, an invisible sprite
if it wasnt a sprite there would be a console error saying 'no sprite on frame xxxx'
bold heron
and now i'm getting a new error
royal wave
But there's no literall asset TNT1A, just zdoom is programmed to accept it due to compatibility reasons with Boom
bold heron
wait no that was just me making a typo
bold heron
alright that works!
light prism
oh, its a boom feature?
royal wave
be sure to remove the attacksound flag, otherwise the use of A_PlaySound looks redundant
light prism
intelesting
royal wave
Yeah, there's a second dummy sprite besides TNT1A
originally introduced by TeamTNT in Boom, TNT1 frame A is an invisible sprite. Even if graphics are provided (for example, a TNT1A0 lump), it will remain invisible. For actors needing to be invisible, use TNT1.
bold heron
okay apparently a later step, adding a recoil animation, causes the AttackSound property to actually work
so i got rid of the A_PlaySound line
bold heron
neat i got a custom fire sound working
it's 3am though holy shit

If I keep them aligned to each other, they'll fit evenly

did you make the model in blender?
royal wave

are you sure its not just a mapping thing then
royal wave
I have no idea
light prism
like you've selected a group of them and accidentally snapped to a line
royal wave
I placed them by hand
light prism
what is the model? a ROTT style platform?
and is it just one or is it a cluster of four
or are those yellow squares other items beneath
light prism
well you messed up the alignment in the lower right

light prism
it gets a little funky around the edges of high floors, need to find a way to compensate
royal wave
How does the script work? Does it auto-detect?
light prism
its all anonymous functions in decorate
fixed anyway
just had to add some extra height checking around the player
if you're on floor currently, it checks if the floor height in front of your current angle by a few units is within a given tolerance, then uses that value*4 as the new A_SetRoll value
roll instead of pitch since the player character actually faces front and back and uses strafe movement for 2d control
which additionally means there is only one right-facing set of sprites and it flips the xscale instead of viewing a different angle
royal wave
I'm happy with getting the base behavior of the primary weapon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXUnwV6qhjM
ZScript made this way easier to accomplish
which is also the prime reason I'm revisiting this mod, as decorate would have been obnoxious
light prism
ah yeah
i imagine zscript would make that easier yes
i did something similar with decorate years back heh
royal wave
Now if it was possible in ZScript to control specific tick speed when an action state is called, that's make it even easier on me
royal wave
hmm
Haha nice, was able to incorperate it, thanks!

For maps I'd say GZDooM builder,
For making custom gamemodes and other things and such I'd say SLADE

SLADE does have a map editor but GZDOOM Builder is specifically built for map making.

best one for that?
well, for putting them into a wad anyways

@main lichen SLADE is the best one for that, well, for getting the sprites in atleast.
SLADE'S really good for scripting and asset archiving and such.
main lichen
ok, thanks

I'd say make the actual sprites in Photoshop or other image editing softwares though.

GIMP 2 + SLADE 3 + GZDoom Builder + ZDoom Wiki is basically the Doom modding starter kit.

GIMP 😨
i mean, at least Krita, if you can't afford PS
unfortunately none of the free image editors are good tbh
prisma saddle
Yeah, I hear Kirta is pretty good.
But I'd recommend Photoshop, for like, 15 ish NZDs a month you can get PS if you get the Photography package on Creative Cloud.
prisma saddle
Gimp isn't great if you want to actually draw things.
haughty flower
Krita is good for drawing
haughty flower
Tbh I think image editing and drawing shouldn't be in the same program
prisma saddle
I think it should TBH,
Makes workflows alot more smooth and consistent.
There's a reason why Photoshop has sorta been the industry standard for drawing and photo editing over the last few years.

sorry for actually using a program by people who know what "good GUI" means

that's intentional
SLADE doesn't allow you to edit IWADs because it's a bad idea
what you want to do is to make a PWAD instead (just use SLADE's new feature) and mod in there - anything you put into there will override the iwad content
you could also (and should also, if the mod is large enough) use a pk3 file, which has folders

(ive been using for like 15 years and theyve changed enough shit that its still annoying)

@light prism I did a few roughs of the Penguins.
buoyant heath
I feel like i should go back and try to make a map set for doom now xD
buoyant heath
i dont even know what that is
buoyant heath
oh ok xD
i was playing jumpmaze with a friend yesterday, i was thinking i have played doom to much when my head is trying to pick out texture names
buoyant heath
thats a good one
light prism
because it's a great filler
buoyant heath
one of the best fillers for holes xD
light prism
it is repeatable but not tiled, contains nice amount of vertical detail
without being a bordering texture
buoyant heath
i feel like an entire mapset based around sladwall would get tiresome xD
buoyant heath
im a novice mapper 😛
i've mapped things but never enough for a full set
and never put anything out
unreal oyster
it's not massively ridiculous if you do it in Boom, because your options are so limited that you end up making maps quicker
a GZDoom UDMF megawad though... heh
buoyant heath
i've never even looked at Boom. Idk what it is even used for
unreal oyster
it's just a simpler and older map format than UDMF which is still in popular use due to its simplicity
buoyant heath
ah ok
unreal oyster
because you aren't swamped with options, a lot of people feel that it helps you make maps faster
unreal oyster
yeah, that's another reason it's used too
way more compatible than GZDoom UDMF
because it works on engines like PrBoom+, it's also preferred for levels intended to be speedrun
GZDoom isn't very good with demos so it's less favourable for speedruns in the doom community (which generally use demos as proof of a run)
light prism
@unreal oyster - still, making a good megawad by yourself is very time consuming
bold heron
i'm having trouble adding new keybinds with KEYCONF. all i get is an "unknown command" error. anyone able to help?
bold heron
wait never mind figured it out
i'd changed some things in the KEYCONF and forgot to actually rebind the key to the right action in the in-game menu
royal wave
don't
deep cairn
i've fully replaced the doom guys face in the hud with phil
the chainsaw sounds are all the dremel sounds that phil used to saw a boat in half
i need to find a way to make it say "CHAINSAW NOW FIND A BOAT"
you say THATSALODDADAMAGE whenever you take damage
prisma saddle
Maybe make it so that if you kill enough enemies in a certain ammount of time the player says one of Phils one liners.
Like, "Big damage" "Thats alot of damage"
Um.
deep cairn
this is literally my first time using slade boyo it took me 20 minutes to change the palette to doom
prisma saddle
Ah
deep cairn
heres an early version, i reccomend doom 2
deep cairn
how do i change what the player spawns with
light prism
you can add it to the player class
but this means replacing the player class and having the game refer to that class for players
deep cairn
tyvm
how do i actually add/take weapons from the class?
nvm i think i got this
nvm im a dummy
light prism
u dungus
deep cairn
im a dingle
i need an actor property for a class that adds a weapon and takes another
ah got it
}
actor MyPlayer : DoomPlayer
{
Player.StartItem MyPlayer knife
}
GameInfo
{
PlayerClasses = "MyPlayer"
}
help im a DUMBASS
error at the line player.startitem
i need to know what format the weapon needs to be in
also the last line
GameInfo does not define any animation frames
maybe i shouldnt make a phil swift mod at 1 am
bold heron
- if you've defined the knife weapon in DECORATE, you just need to refer to it by its name in quotes i.e. "Knife"
- iirc gameinfo needs to be in the MAPINFO lump
deep cairn
it is 2 am
instead of sleeping
i continue to make a meme wad for a 24 year old game about an infomercial salesman
prisma saddle
How's the meme wad goin?
deep cairn
thats a looodddaaaa daaaammm midge
prisma saddle
Flex seal gun when?
deep cairn
when i get around to it
prisma saddle
Neato.
deep cairn
The mod was inspired by this
prisma saddle
Make medkits bottles of flex seal or flex shot.
deep cairn
Sniff some flex glue for health
prisma saddle
As we all know, flex seal is amazing at sealing wounds.
main lichen
thats the greatest thing ive ever seen
needs to say "i sawed this boat in half!" when you get a kill with the chainsaw though
deep cairn
That requires more than 2 lines of code sorry
I downloaded Slade today
Well yesterday
prisma saddle
It's a pretty nice texture, got a nice brushed aluminium vibe
elfin ruin
buoyant heath
since its simple im using Boom currently so i dont think i can do that 😛
deep cairn
i feel dumb
for some reason my sprite replacement doesnt work
it just shows the default rocket launcher sprite
even though they're set to the same name
light prism
show code plz
oh right
uh
you dont need angles for a pickup sprite
(i mean, you can have them, but you shouldnt)
it should just be MISLA0
deep cairn
this is a rocket replacement
light prism
look at your markers
you have S_END and S_START with nothing between them
all the sprites should be between S_START and S_END
deep cairn
so literally just move them?
light prism
yes also put start before end
light prism
ctrl-d and ctrl-u i think
deep cairn
that only selects the next one down i think
light prism
ok but i swear its ctrl-d/u
deep cairn
it just selects the item above/below u lol
light prism
not a good idea to sort by size considering markers will all get moved
deep cairn
its all sorted right now
light prism
are you using Renderstyle Add?
additive will do that, yes
use Renderstyle Translucent with Alpha 1.0
deep cairn
im trying to replace the bfg projectile
light prism
are you inheriting from it?
deep cairn
ye
light prism
you havent changed any code
deep cairn
yes
light prism
yeah, well the BFG projectile uses Renderstyle Add
adding black to anything does nothing
so you'll need to do a bit of DECORATE to replace the actor
deep cairn
k
light prism
with one that doesnt use Renderstyle Add
here, do this:
actor MyBFGBallReplacement : BFGBall { Renderstyle Translucent Alpha 1.0 }
that should be enough
oops
actor MyBFGBallReplacement : BFGBall replaces BFGBall { Renderstyle Translucent Alpha 1.0 }
deep cairn

light prism
hmmm
id like to make a powerup for my cat game that lets you walk on walls or ceiling
i wonder how i'd do that
ceiling easy enough, walls.. hard to detect

is there a mod that replaces all the music with Knee Deep in Doot?

i bet all the walljumping/ledge grabbing/floor pitching stuff would be so much easier in zscript
if only i knew zscript
golden drum
I looked it up on the zdoom wiki but it's so badly explained. Can someone tell me the difference between strife style friendlies and mbf style friendlies?

stop waste time doom modding and start live... are you saying you want to mod real life??
that's the only thing i can get out of it lol

"How do I stop wasting time modding GZDoom and start living?"
If that's the case, I have the opposite problem.

You're saying that if you could create any partner, you'd pick a goth human.
