no, i hope to have time to finish this trooper for now.

[MusicallyInspired]

That would look sweet with some sweet normals and specs.

[Tea Monster]

Looking good!

[Fox]

It was a pain, but I finally figured out how to make bullets works like DooM, i.e. bullets passes through an enemy if he was already hit by enough shots to kill him

[Geoffrey]

ah cool! I loved that about doom

[Danukem]

I have my own method of doing this and I'm curious as to whether Fox is doing it a similar way or if he found a different way.

[High Treason]

I would have thought that if each bullet had a delay of a tick or so, you could change the cstat of the enemy as it went into it's dying animation so that it was no longer hitscan sensitive presumably allowing bullets so pass through it?

Yes bullets would pass through the enemy while it is dying but they would be new bullets, and the trick is getting the new ones positioned properly so it seems like they are continuations of the old bullets. They also need to be bullets fired by the player in order to make decals and give the player credit for the shots (important if your mod treats player bullets differently from enemy bullets for any reason).

[Mikko]

Some Duke3D maps with Doom type of gameplay but with Duke's damage system really could use this feature!

Back in business.

That looks rather pretty.

Quite so! Sexy gun.

Ohhh, that's too much of workaround

Presumably you got stuck by the htg_t 8 thing, which happen a tick after the bullets are fired.

The way to do things is to every time a bullet is fired, check all actors in the map and set the cstat during the process if sprite.extra equal to less than sprite.htextra

One problems with the way consecutive bullets are fired by the player, but I didn't tested this yet.

That's awesome. I want to implement this in my mod at some point.

You can use my non-complete DoomTC

I don't think that I'll finish it sometime, may be somebody can finish it

Something like this?

onevent EVENT_EGS

ifactor SHOTSPARK1 ifspawnedby APLAYER
{
   headspritestat spriteid 1
   whilevarn spriteid -1
   {
	  ifvarvarg sprite[spriteid].htextra sprite[spriteid].extra

		  xorvar temp 256
		  setactor[spriteid].cstat temp
	   }
	   nextspritestat spriteid spriteid
   }
}

endevent

[Fox]

Sort of.

However I havent tried it that way, yet. Hard to explain.

What I actually use is different because it's for a piercing bullet upgrade that causes bullets to pierce through enemies even if they are still alive (non enemy sprites, too, such as garbage cans). Therefore, I can't change their cstat and I have to make the "same bullet" hit the enemy and keep going. Using a hackish method is unavoidable for that feature.

Could you give a hint what this is? It looks exteptional good, but ... yes, a n00b question.

@ Deeperthought - With both then you can have piercing and concussion projectiles, if you're creating a new bullet it could even be somewhat degraded from passing through something, or if you're feeling frisky maybe have them ricochet at random to simulate hitting bone or metal.

Finally made my player model.

Heres the currently unanimated model in 3rd person view.

Personally I think I need to make his skin darker so it blends less with his clothing.



Here's what your multi-player dopplegangers will look like.

[Zaxtor]

Worked on a neat projectile.
Laser with an extremely long trail.
That slowly fade.
Trail damage when you touch it diminish as the trail fade.
Was long as hell to make but I did it.
Here is three shots of those long lasers.
PS they bounce a few times.

[The Commander]

They look more like RPG smoke trails to me.

[Zaxtor]

Its very luminous.
Yes look a bit like RPG trail.
is fairly easy to avoid not to get hit.
It doesn't move that fast. About 0.48 the speed of RPG speed.

[Mark]

Still working on my Graveyard map.

[Tea Monster]

That's some nice work there.

[Scott_AW]

Some abuse of rooms over rooms.

I can't see where the RoR is. Can you tell me please

Look at the water. The water surface is not made of sprites.
