It mostly depends on whether the map itself has any changes on each skill-setting, I dunno if Nightmare does anything in Quake1 aside from removing the pain-stun and making Voreballs too fast to dodge forever - and to be perfectly honest I got no idea if the X-pacs did something unique with their bestiaries when one uses Skill3 to play these addons (unlike a few nasty tricks the Q2's GZ/TR have given to their most annoying new monsters)

For those who's ignorant of what's this all about, you're probably better off starting with classic GbV albums for an introduction to Robert & Co.

They have a habit of infiltrating everything and then taking over the communities. Quake also has this issue right now with them even trying to muscle out Quaddicted with a shitty new site and constant mediocre mapsets that they all band together and mass upvote to make them seem like must - plays and I'm sick of it.

If that's not an acceptable answer (even though it's a real problem) then I'd say the "magnum opus" issue. Everything has to be a giant epic with crushing difficulty now and it's getting out of hand. I can't even finish megawads anymore because they're either too long or get too silly by the end even on HMP.

I agree with you that there are two very annoying camps of people in charge of the communities right now. I'm more into Doom mostly, but I keep the hell away from the forums because the circle jerk and toxic positivity is real. My brief foray into the Quake community has shown it's got similar issues, with one new group trying to re-write all the rules, but I don't think I'll be staying there so it's frankly not my problem.

>>9813050
I know it's a controversial opinion but I actually wish it had a story. Many mods used to have little text crawls after each map explaining what you just did, such as Rubicon Rumble, so it'd be neat if a later update added something like that.
I love Alkaline but I always wondered just who these guys were and why they're all over the multiverse/dimensions. At least stuff like AD can be explained away by being other dark magical realms ruled over by the outer gods.

[Anonymous No.9813084]

>>9813071
I feel the same way. Rubicon does look like it deserves a much more in depth story. A lone commando infiltrating some techno fascist headquarters and destroying a doomsday machine. There should be a caped villain in an iron mask or a brain or something. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all the hard work that goes into these mods which I play for free, but that's an element that could be expanded on.

If it were up to me that spinning Rubicon symbol you get for 100%ing the mod would be a portal that leads to some crazy B-movie villain boss fight. Some cybernetic overlord in a giant crazy cape or something, to really cap off the rusty B-movie sci fi feel.

As the other guy said, Babel is sort of similar in concept but the execution is different. BURL TUMD was kind of a meme that played well, while Babel is more of an in-depth take on a certain kind of rebalance that may or may not be to your taste. If I had to sum it up, it would be "Doom but with some neat optional graphics, much more aggressive AI, a bunch of extra mechanics, and a more even weapon roster".

Well as long as it doesn't overwrite the enemies it's probably good. If you see some dehacked shit in there it probably won't work quite right with the other mechanics but oh well. Worst case scenario the BFG might not lock onto a dehacked enemy that used to be a lightpost or something.

Hell revealed 2 has all the tact and subtlety of a 2001 made-for-Zdoom map. It has some ok maps but it's mostly frustrating jank with too many vanilla faux-bridges
Goes without saying it has hell revealed level difficulty, but some of the levels definitely seem made to deliberately fuck with pistol starters, like map12 having 3 big plasma packs and no weapons

For Quake 1 either Ironwail or vkQuake. They're mostly at parity for features, but one might run better than the other for you depending on your hardware.
If you're on an absolute toaster though, you might just want to use Quakespasm or Quakespasm Spiked.

Yamagi is *probably* the best for Quake 2, though some mods might need a specific port like KMQuake II.

But it isn't just Doom anymore, it's an engine based on Doom, capable of playing it, but which is designed around being moddable out of its balls.

>Weapons have upgrades but they don't seem to be complete trash -- stuff like +regen for the blaster -- probably keeps the Stinger relevant later once you have Flak gun
>Blaster actually regenerates at an okay pace without needing to hide and eat a bowl of chips while you wait with your game at 200% speed
>Headshots for every weapon. Kind of weird but also makes ambushes more fun because you can own a Lizard / rocket ogre that has you cornered in a few shots
>Tweaked encounters so you need to pay more attention to old levels (even small shuffling like enemies spawning behind a different door than Vanilla when you trigger something). In picrel they changed the gates at the start so you can't blaster-jump out of the ambush and the ogre shooter flak grenades instead of rockets.
Only complaints so far are the cringe modern-style camera waggle when you shoot (but it gets reduced with weapon upgrades I guess) and that the lower TTK makes me take less damage. But I guess its more Doom damage -- unlike Vanilla Unreal where one stray shot wrecks your health and armour, now its if you screw up and get cornered by a Skaarj and multiple nuisance enemies you're dead.

I certainly don't think /vr/ is the worst part of Doom's community. I'm biased though as I have a deep love for this place and owe a lot to these threads for my own growth as a creator.

By sheer magnitude of faggotry, not to mention faggotry per capita, /vr/ is far from the worst part of the Doom community. We barely net, what 300-500 posts a day on average, if that? I'd safely estimate that Doomworld and Plebbit alone get multiple times more posts/comments per day than.

On one hand, it's the one place in the Doom/Quake community where people can still be honest and there aren't a bunch of oversensitive kids trying to reshape an old community into their own personal safe space.
I've discovered so many fantastic mods and wads thanks to this place, and for the most part you guys are cool.

On the other hand, this is still 4chan and some really unpleasant people like to pipe up from time to time. They're what comes with being a mostly unfiltered discussion though, and I'd take them over the atmosphere of censorship with a smiley face in the other communities.

No, charging pinkies are just switching from one step every 2.5 frames (Which makes them 20% faster than regular pinkies) to a step every frame (Which makes them 50% faster than fast pinkies, or three times faster than normal ones) if certain conditions are met, while spawning translucent afterimages behind.

I want it to die if it hits the wall. I'm also not a fan of how spawned monsters don't inherit spawner's target and thus would home on the player even if the spawner is infighting.
I could make it a shorter projectile, offset the sprite and spawn it accordingly. But this would make it clip through the floor, plus I might need to adjust its radius as well, lest it'd clip on the edges anyway.

Right now the dash ghost works perfectly for my desired aesthetic. As long as player isn't allowed to go on higher ground (Although there's two other attacks that actually fire normal projectiles so it's not a big deal in itself)

[Anonymous No.9819250]

As they are designed with more verticality in mind, tougher by a lot. Duke 3D kinda worked for me, but as soon as you try it on a higher difficulty you regret it.

The initial illusion of myhouse.wad just falls flat for me due to the long loadtime and slowdowns whenever some of the changing thresholds are crossed.

As far as actual mods go - having custom code and new monsters/weapons that go well beyond reskins - there hasn't really been that much of an uptick. Even AD is largely piggybacked off of Quoth, and Alkaline is very much derived from AD with some MALICE and Xmen mod monsters shoved in.
There have just been way more maps produced due to the simplicity of Trenchbroom.

[Anonymous No.9821775]

Let's not forget AD also gets much from Drake and Hexen 2, the latter of which being the primary reason it'll never see a Quake Remastered endorsement.

In theory they could, but I haven't really found a good way of doing it. Monsters only work because their base thinkrate is fast (0.1 seconds) and I have all their animation frames calling a common function anyway, so they can speed up/down quickly in response to a Time Dilation powerup. It's a bit of a wonky illusion, but it works.
Brush entities often have much higher think times, so a separate entity would need to store the progress towards it relative to the dilation effect. There's also the issue of velocity for things like doors and lifts... I have no idea how to deal with that.

As for the map, I was thinking there's a time dilation powerup hooked up to a machine somewhere that is amplifying its effects. The player has to grab it for the exit on the opposite side of the lava bridge to open, but doing so also causes meteors or whatever was frozen in the sky to start crashing down. The player then has to escape before everything explodes. Relatively simple, and it wouldn't need much expanding beyond what is already there.

I might as well drop this little bomb now.
It's not strictly for /doom/, nobody here has anything to actually do with this, but it might be important context down the road, and this is an anonymous place to drop it.
Janny will strike me down for this, as he should, and I'll take it.

The first part isn't new, but I want it clarified because I see people twisting or reinterpreting this:
>Marisa gets called out on Reddit for grooming a minor
>she's anxious about this, and admits in private circles that it's not all made up
>she had a mutual sexual (online) relationship with a person who was 17 at the time, while she was 29
>she regrets this
>she talked to a number of people about this apparently, with some people saying to just keep quiet and ignore it
>Marisa is instead convinced that the only right thing you can actually do when guilty of this, is to own up to it and admit to it
>publicly
>as she does, she also reveals with her own Discord screencaps that this relation wasn't quite as one-sided as he presented it
>more, that he had been boasting to her about how he was grooming 12 year old boys, and talked about all these nudes of them that he had gathered
>probably for this reason, her accuser disappears himself from the web, scrubbing his internet presence
So that's the first part.

In my opinion, while Marisa is guilty of something nasty, it's not entirely like people present it either, and her accuser, who pushily initiated this relationship, is himself an outright sexual predator, and far worse than her.
I feel personally that Marisa's crime is one which could one day be forgiven, while her accuser rather sounds like a menace to society. Agree or disagree with me, that's unimportant, but the next part is.

[Anonymous No.9822887]

What you didn't know, what the dumb, gossiping shits at KiwiFarms don't know:
>Rachael, General Secretary Of The ZDoom Forums, did NOT take kindly to this
>she did not want it known that a trans person in this community was guilty of sexual impropriety
>together with her closest goons, including Candice, they draft up a plan for how Marisa was supposed to recant her admission of guilt
>(nobody fucking knows who Candice is, seemingly she has almost no interest in Doom or even any presence in the community)
>(she's an outsider friend who Rachael brought in to act as some sort of unpaid (?) 'mercenary' moderator for places like ZDF)
>they start work on a pre-written statement for Marisa to present as her own and all
>ZDF staff was then supposed to rigorously defend her from any dissent or questioning

>Marisa, to her credit, and in-line with being honest about her wrongdoing, actually REJECTS this proposal
>so that plan is abandoned, and eventually the drama where Marisa is booted out from everywhere happens
>Rachael is BEYOND livid at this
>she's not just hating the guts of the 'transphobic' staff in servers and spaces where Marisa was removed
>(mind, places where you can sometimes find minors, hence their DUTY to do so)
>Rachael also increasingly loathes how she doesn't have any influence in those places
>with the proliferation of Discord, there's been substantial fragmentation of the ZDoom community, people go and organize projects there and have their own little communities
>communities where Rachael has no reach, and no power
>nor even insight, at best getting hearsay, or crumbs of info from people there who are also ZDF staff or ZDoom devs
>Rachael is not exactly universally liked among those people
>and now these community fragments DARED to act as they wished
Supposedly yearning for 'retribution' against these people and sub-communities, whatever that's supposed to entail. Expect some sociopathic bullshit which will have needless fallout and collateral damage.
