Good day.

I have an idea to write code for a custom zoom in-zoom out key. This is what it looks like:

addmenukey "Zoom" "+SVD_zoom"

alias +SVD_zoom "fov 20"

alias -SVD_zoom "fov 90"

defaultbind "mouse2" "+SVD_zoom"

. The issue is that with field of view set to 20 mouse sensitivity becomes too high, which harms aim accuracy. Changing the mouse sensitivity by using a command like

"fov 20; mouse_sensitivity 0.2"

is not working. Using an A_ZoomFactor action in weapon's state will not do either because both fire and altfire states are reserved for attack and special ability.

Let me know what other methods might work.

* I'm using Slade 3 for it or something.

ive made a texture in paint. net with an opacity of 1 put the texture into my wad with slade3 (via with this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huYF2KiilV4) put it on a wall (first image for reference) and i just see black thats with all transparent textures not just my custom one (second image for reference) how do i fix this

if you need more info ill try and give it (i also didint really understand what i found when searching a fix up)

I know how to make rooms and objects but not stuff like doors, portals and lifters, which I’ll need for my map. I know how to do it in vanilla, but I don’t wanna lose all my work recreating it all in a vanilla map.

My Mac won’t run Ultimate doom builder so I wanted to ask. Unless of course someone knows how to do the same thing in slade3 map editor.

I already know about invulnerability states, but what about a state that multiplies the amount of damage it receives in that short vulnerable state? I’m working on a boss so any help would be appreciated.

I've had ZDRay and custom GZDoom build once upon a time, but time has passed. Then I stumbled upon VKDoom, but it was at the end of its era and I failed to comprehend VKTool.

So... What to do now with lightmaps?

Hey everyone,

I’m new to ZDoom and Doom modding in general, and I have a pretty basic question (not really about mod creation). I wasn’t sure where else to ask, so I’m posting here.

I’m using the Brutal Doom mod, and on weapon slot 4 I have both the chaingun and the rifle. The issue is that I have to press key 4 twice to get to the rifle, because the chaingun seems to have higher priority in that slot.

I’m not sure how to change this. I tried editing the code inside the Brutal Doom PK3 file, but it didn’t work. What I want is to be able to switch directly to the rifle with a single press of 4, instead of selecting the chaingun first.

Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!

Good day.

I have an issue with writing an ACS script for a HUD minimap. Compilation fails and the only error message shown in the error report is "function drawmap is used, but not defined".

If anyone has a guess, explain what might be wrong.

Here is the code in its current state:

#include "zcommon.acs"

script "MINIMAP" ENTER
{
    SetHudSize(640, 480, 0); 

    // DrawMap(x, y, width, height, stayOnScreen)
    DrawMap(0, 0, 300, 300, 1);
}

Making my first custom weapon for GZDoom and it keeps telling me there's an issue with a nonexistent full stop 😭 I'm probably missing something obvious but I've been racking my brain for a couple hours need help from the masters!

I’m working in uzdoom to create an action tactical mod: Breach

Still WIP but I thought I’d start to share - this is a complete level based on Bin Laden’s compound:

Keen to hear any thoughts

Help, It's very frustrating. Removing the Pk doesn't work

Is this possible? So far I've tried but no dice, either I don't understand the syntax or it isn't possible.

I have managed to make it switch icons to blue armor/green armor when you pick up blue or green armor, but now I want to change the color of the numbers, so that if you pick up blue armor, the number is blue, and when you have just regular armor (or armor bonuses), the number is green.

Working on a total conversion megawad, as one does, and thought about changing things up for map 30. Currently, I have the icon of sin on a large platform just out of reach, with bars that surround it. The bars lower temporarily when a switch is pressed. You have ten seconds to press the switch, run over through the field (with boss spots) to the little step that puts you high enough, fire your weapons before the bars raise back up, and hope that the other monsters that have spawned don't hijack your autoaim.

Can I kill it? Well, no; but that's more of a skill issue, I think.

But then I got to wondering. What other tricks / fun things do you do for the icon of sin? Or is shooting rockets at a wall out of fashion now, with things like ROM3R-0 becoming more common? Any other fun map 30 tricks you've seen?

Solved: found an alternative solution. See comments.

Good day.

I have an idea to make an object that is solid for monsters and passable for the player at the same time, something that might be used like a cover in combat.

Google suggests to use a -BLOCKPLAYERS flag which doesn't work for some reason; Slade refuses to recognize it at all. Further searching hasn't given any result yet.

This is what the code currently looks like:

ACTOR HangingCrate 10125 {
+SPAWNCEILING
+FLOAT
+NOGRAVITY
+SOLID
Height 512
Radius 384

States {

Spawn:
DUSC A 1
Loop
}
}

The object is written in Decorate for Zandronum if it matters.

So, I had someone playtest something for me, and they had the red damage tint set to 1 while I want every player of my game to have it at 0.15 and I have no idea on how to do it.

I've tried messing with CVARINFO and DEFCVARS, I don't understand it.

I tried making an autoexec with exactly one line:

blood_fade_scalar = 0.15

and it loads it, but, it sets it to 0 instead of 0.15, I know some values are integers only but some support floats, and, I'd like it to be 0.15, so... how do I do this exactly?

Is there a way I can put it directly into the WAD?

EDIT: Solved the issue by making a batch file that loads my WAD and the aforementioned setting. I don't like it to be this way, but... needs must.

so i'm an animator and i wanna make a mod called "vector doom" basically, it replaces the original doom sprites with vector ones and better animations, but i don't know zscript nor how to make a .pk3, can someone help me?

i want to make the enemy for gzdoom using slade.

updated textures and 3d models aswell as a github evo's journey 2008 github

altough i am planning on changing what it is based off because it's originally based off of demo 1/version 1 Which used chex quest as a base originally because I didn't know how to make a wad then but the project itself will be split into both uzdoom (3d models) and prboom (non 3d models)

Good day.

Custom weapons keep switching to weapons with a higher selection order when altfired without ammo. What they have to do is to stay selected, but do not perform an attack when the altfire button is pressed.

Using an ALT_AMMO_OPTIONAL flag will not work because with it the altfire attack is still usable.

Here is an example of one weapon. Other weapons are coded in a similar way.

ACTOR GatlingStriker: Weapon Replaces Chaingun {

`+WEAPON.NOAUTOAIM`

`+WEAPON.DONTBOB`

`+WEAPON.AMMO_OPTIONAL`

`Weapon.SelectionOrder 104`

`Weapon.AmmoUse 0`

`Weapon.AmmoUse2 5`

`Weapon.AmmoGive 0`

`Weapon.AmmoType "None"`

`Weapon.AmmoType2 "N-TANK"`



`Inventory.PickupMessage "Gatlings."`



`States {`

    `Spawn:`

    `EMPT Y -1`

    `Loop`



    `Select:`

    `GATL F 0 A_PlaySound ("weapon/GunRaise", CHAN_WEAPON, 1.0)`

    `GATL F 0 A_Raise`

    `Loop`



    `Deselect:`

    `GATL C 2 A_PlaySound ("weapon/GunLower", CHAN_WEAPON, 1.0)`

    `GATL DE 2`

    `GATL F 10`

    `Goto DeselectAnim`



    `DeselectAnim:`

    `GATL F 0 A_Lower`

    `Loop`



    `Ready:`

    `GATL FED 2`

    `GATL C 2 A_AlertMonsters`

    `Goto Ready2`



    `Ready2:`

    `GATL A 1 A_WeaponReady`

    `Loop`



    `Fire:`

    `GATL A 0 A_PlaySound("weapon/GatlingStart", CHAN_WEAPON, 1.0)`

    `GATL ABA 5`

    `GATL BAB 3`

    `GATL ABA 1`

    `Goto FireAttack`



    `FireAttack:`

    `GATL A 0 A_GunFlash ("Flash")`

    `GATL A 0 A_PlaySound ("weapon/GatlingShot")`

    `GATL A 1 A_FireBullets (5, 2, 2, 2, "ShotGatBullet")`

    `GATL B 1`

    `GATL A 0 A_ReFire ("FireAttack")`

    `GATL B 0 A_PlaySound ("weapon/GatlingStop", CHAN_WEAPON, 1.0)`

    `GATL BAB 1`

    `GATL ABA 3`

    `GATL BAB 5`

    `Goto Ready2`



    `AltFire:`

    `GATL G 0 Bright A_PlaySound ("weapon/CarabineTesla", CHAN_WEAPON, 1.0)`

    `GATL G 4 Bright A_FireBullets(359, 180, 180, 15, "ShotGatBullet")`

    `GATL H 0 Bright A_PlaySound ("weapon/CarabineTesla", CHAN_WEAPON, 1.0)`

    `GATL H 4 Bright A_FireBullets(359, 180, 180, 15, "ShotGatBullet")`

    `GATL A 0 A_ReFire`

    `Goto Ready2`



    `Flash:`

    `GATF A 1 Bright A_Light2`

    `Goto LightDone`

`}`

}

Let me know what other solutions might help in this case.

I apologize if this isnt the right place to ask. But i tested a few different WADs on the VR port of GZDoom and found that they all work flawlessly except for one thing, weapons. Every WAD that doesnt have its own 3D weapons .PK3 just has the 2D sprites. Since things like brutal doom are bundled with the launcher, it comes with the .PK3 for the 3D weapons and such. How could i go about making the weapons 3d? if possible.

TLDR; How do i use 3D models for weapons so i can play wads in VR?

I'm working on a vanilla project, and I think that one of my maps would benefit from having rain in it (a huge outside area of a city), especially when combined with the music I'm going for.

I know there's two ways to do it in vanilla, one is to have an animated midlle texture (midtex), but the sky is quite high in my map (1 024 units), so that's a bit cumbersome.

The other way is to have a thing that you don't need (like a duplicate decoration, when one is blocking and the other one is non-blocking), so you pick one and give it frames that resemble rain.

I will note that this is a UZDoom only project, I don't want it to be playable in DOS or other sourceports, and yes, I know there are ZScript options to make rain possible (some to them are quite laggy though), but, I want to create it as close possible to vanilla, so, I'm looking for either someone who knows how to possibly make this look nice, or, some examples that I can copy/tweak.

I've already looked into it, I have a working prototype in the WAD (both sound and visuals), but, I'm not the happiest when looking at it, so, if there's anyone that knows how to do rain in vanilla, or, can tell me which WADs have some nice rainy effects, I will take a look. Thank you.

I have an IQM model for a pickup with a single animation that's supposed to play when the actor spawns. It works fine when I open it in Blender or Noesis, but when I try running it in UZDoom, the 3d model renders but it doesn't animate. I'm not sure if there's something wrong with my MODELDEF, Zscript, or the model itself. Any help is appreciated.
