The gunt knight is amazing, but I believe it would be more "lore accurate" if he spawned 2 lost souls on death instead of just 1. Looking forward to this being a playable map or even a full wad.

Thanks man. But what do you mean more lore accurate? Do you mean he's so fucking fat there are 2 in there?

The Gunt Knight v1.

Would it be feasible to make the Lost Soul(s) charge at the player when they're spawned? They would be more of a threat that way and in line with how Pain Elementals behave.

Easily, like this. Might get messy with multiple actors spawned though, due to how the attack lines would intersect and cause infighting.

I thought the lost souls were a reference to the guntlings Ralph has sired.

I honestly just thought it was a good gameplay choice, don't make people forget they just killed a baron of hell, makes me think of the run think shoot live ideology of Half Life.

It's a bit of both. I thought it was funny to spawn a lost soul, because that's what he is. Also, since he has low hp it made sense to create a new monster after.

I got the silly idea to turn the plasma gun bolts into stickers. That gave me a reason to learn ZScript and I've come to love it, it's way less clumsy than DECORATE.

Change the muzzle flash to green, I know the BFG is green already but you guys might find a replacement for that at some point possibly, you could also have it so the reaction stickers have a splash effect, like a splash corrosponding to the reaction sticker instead of the default plasma bolt end animation if you end up doing something with that too. I honestly wish I could contribute more but my pc is in for repairs rn.

Holy shit, that's fantastic.
I can change the color to green like @PunkinMan suggested if you wish?

Speaking of which, I'm thinking of having two chapters. One will be an open, anything goes as the previous project. The other would have a theme. There are two themes I'm considering. First is tower theme, with a play area 2048x2048 in size, where each map is a floor of KF tower. The second is a brutalism theme, mainly inspired by the Quake map packs.

Instead of doing a tower you could have it take place inside of a computer server where the player is shrunken down and placed inside and has to jump into various components which work as portals to the levels, the goal being each time you beat a level it repairs a part of the circuit board until you get to the end when the server is fixed and you have to hit the giant power button to start the KF server and end the mod.

I just discovered this thread and ended up making this

I call it the Icon of Smug, can add blood decals and do resizing stuff if its actually going to be used

That's great. I like it when people want to add their art. It being used or not is up to the mappers.

One thing, can you make some small changes that makes it look a bit more KF-themed?

 

[OneMillionRPM]

Great idea. I also changed the sounds to be a little more fitting.

Might as well do some graphics for this gun. Seems fun

 

[Dull Pencil]

@Hax1337 Here're your ghey barrels. I made the shading match the original and I shrunk the logo on the helmets and pasted it on the health too.

It's been a while since i dabbled in map making, but i want to contribute to this. I never tried scripting for doom, how hard is it to change Monster behaviour?

I'm not sure people would enjoy having the stats on the stock monsters changed. It's better to create your own variants. Go here and in the search, type the name of the monster you wanna edit, there you will get its code. Just copy it and change the class name. Save it to zscript.txt and put it into a pk3. If you have no idea what any of this means, just search for it on the wiki. There are articles about everything.
If you want some custom graphics, go here.

Sorry if this is a very lacking explanation but it's too much to type here. I just named the important stuff so you can search for it.

Ok, bad news. I asked @Judge Dredd what's happening with his project. He didn't say too much though, but there will be no project I'm pretty sure.

So what now? Is anyone interested? In worst case I might be able to do something, but then I might need some help.
Thoughts?

I have the technical knowledge to create a megawad, but I do not have the time to fully manage several people and I'm also prone to outbursts of anger and a control freak, so I'm not good at a leader role. My choice would be a support role.
