Started almost from scratch, Lots of original textures from scratch, In the mean time had started working on the sprites and Dehacked, Got more skilled, Had started to write scripts for ZDoom, ditto... Made this pack ready for scriptful ZDoom levels, Hope you like them. ;) Actually this is far from complete, I want a total conversion of doom items and monsters, a lot more textures and decals, Lots of ready written texts on the textures, more and better sound effects... but for now it is ready for you, and a lot better than the previous release! Look at it as a beta, but it has the original doom monsters almost intact, for the ones who love them (including myself:), but the final release will have more of Strife and DarkForces and Duke in it. A totally interactive environment, I hope. (i.e. you can shoot lamps off, or knock fences down) =========================================================================== * Sights and Sounds *====================================================== =========================================================================== The textures are made in a way so that the textures of the same theme can be combined seamlessly together, experience with them and I hope you will like them, (Send those suggestions!) Some of them are made to be tore apart for instance you would not like to place a wall with a Poison and Radiation and Danger sign together! Also use the Y-shifting for best effects. There are some new monsters and Items: * SSNazi is now "Storm trooper", this guy is a beeffed up shotgun soldier. * Keen is a "Defence turret", far more useful and "fearsome". * Hanging body "HDB5" is a "nosey officer", script him around a lot. * Hanging body "HDB6" is an "overseer officer", ditto . These two officers may change their uniforms with Thing_SetTranslation. * Hanging arms out 2 is now a landmine, watch out or your legs are toast. * Dead Skull is a "Damage detector" useful for those walls that break with explosions like duke3d, script their specials for some good effects. * Barrels can now be pushed around, hint, hint! * Imp fireballs act a bit different ;) * Pole with skull looks a bit different. * Bullet puffs make ricochet sounds. * Hanging torso 2 and Hanging One-legged Body 2 are two different types of pickable bonus items. One bobs and other drops on the ground. Currently in ZDoom 1.23 beta 33 they can not be picked up, so you can only use them for visual effects, where players can not reach them, but if in future versions of ZDoom they become pickable then you can use their special to perform some action when a player picks them up! =========================================================================== There are also some ambient sound effects: * Pointed continuous sounds: 0: Computer beep 2 1: Computer beep 3 2: Computer hum 1 3: Computer hum 2 4: Computer hum 15 5: Computer scan 6: Conveyor 7: Engine hum 8: Fan 9: Flies 10: Force field 1 11: Force field 2 12: Laser hum 1 13: Laser hum 2 14: Machinery 1 15: Machinery 2 16: Machinery 3 17: Neon lamps? 18: Radio 19: Rocks fall 20: Siren 1 21: Siren 2 22: Steam hiss 23: Train 24: Turbine 25: Water fall 26: Water pump * Pointed random sounds: 30: Aquarium bubbles 31: Drips 32: Splashes 33: Gloops 34: Steam hiss 35: Ambient voice 36: Lava hiss 1 37: Lava hiss 2 38: Lava hiss 3 39: Lava hiss 4 * Global random sounds: 51-56: Battle sounds 57: Scuba bubbles Place 35 somwhere behand the walls, she will anounce somthing vague. Scatter objects 36-39 through your lava pits, you will like them! If you place the all of the 51-56 anywhere in a level you will have perfect bombarding sounds around you through out the level. If you place a 57 somewhere in the level you will hear random bubble sounds anywhere in the level, good for underwater themes. =========================================================================== Some sound sequences for Lifts and doors: Sound_Seq00 No sound Sound_Seq01 Machine Sound_Seq02 Hydro-door Sound_Seq03 Rotating shaft Sound_Seq04 Elevator, Big Door Sound_Seq05 Small lift Sound_Seq06 Heavy machine Sound_Seq07 Huge door Sound_Seq08 Sliding door Sound_Seq15 Stone =========================================================================== You can use these sound effects in the scripts: * Ambient sounds : ambient/comp01 ambient/comp02 ambient/comp15 ambient/compbeep2 ambient/compbeep3 ambient/compscan ambient/conveyor ambient/engine ambient/fan1 ambient/flies ambient/force1 ambient/force2 ambient/laser1 ambient/laser2 ambient/machine1 ambient/machine2 ambient/machine3 ambient/pump1 ambient/radio1 ambient/rocks1 ambient/siren1 ambient/siren2 ambient/subway ambient/turbine ambient/waterfall * World sounds world/battle1 world/battle2 world/battle3 world/bubble1 world/scuba world/drip1 world/drip world/smallsplash world/watersplash world/sludgegloop world/slimesplash world/lavasizzle world/hotsizzle world/lava1 world/lava2 world/lava3 world/lava4 world/stonemove world/breakduct world/breakglass world/landmine world/mice world/fleshbody ( bullet hit sounds ) world/metalbody world/rico * Voices : voice/vague1 voice/countdown * Other sounds : misc/keytry misc/beep01 misc/beep02 misc/beep10 misc/click misc/fuse_in misc/fuse_out misc/lite_on misc/lite_out misc/phone * Landing sounds : land/dirt land/field land/flesh land/gibs land/grass land/hard land/metal1 land/metal2 land/metal3 land/soft land/stone land/wood * Floor hit sounds : hit/dirt hit/field hit/flesh hit/gibs hit/grass hit/hard hit/metal1 hit/metal2 hit/metal3 hit/soft hit/stone hit/wood * New enemy sounds: Defence turret: turret/sight turret/active turret/pain Storm troops: strooper/sight strooper/active strooper/pain strooper/death =========================================================================== P.S. just listen to the sounds around your levels! better to decrease the music volume first! P.S. do you know the way to use "TOOL..." floor textures? I will show you in an example level (hopefully soon:), a combat training facility! =========================================================================== * Suggestions *============================================================ =========================================================================== Randy, the instant you make support for footstep sounds on the terrains, I will supply the sounds. For instance, if we run on a metal surface we will hear Cling Clang Clongs... We can also have different footstep sounds for faked floors deeper than the player`s knees. i.e. Slash Slosh changes to Slurrps in deeper places. This pack has lots of ready made decals and signs on the walls (Pheaw, what long hours of decal placement! Almost made me regret I ever started this!) But if ZDoom supports easy and precise placement of texture patches on the walls as additional decals (Editors too!) I can compact this pack and start working on more decals for endless difference in the environment! Who talked about floor decals, me? Nooo! :) And when ZDoom finally loses distinction between the wall patches and floor textures (and sprites?) I can compact this pack a lot more and supply more textures patches in the future! By the way ZDoom is great as it is. Thanx to Randy for this peace of art! =========================================================================== Please send me those suggestions and resources, praises or criticisms, I look forward to them to improve the final release! Thanx anyway :) =========================================================================== * Copyright / Permissions *================================================ =========================================================================== Authors MAY use the contents of this file as a base for modification or reuse.
