BON1A0 will be used to represent the health bonus no matter which angle you are looking at it from. Generally, items and decorations have only one angle, denoted by a 0 (zero) after their frame letter. For instance, after using POSS]0, it would make sense to use POS2A0. If you require additional frames beyond, you can simply create a new sprite name. The backslash character is still used in DECORATE, however.
HERETIC WAD ARCHIVE
If using the \ frame in a PK3 archive format, note that the file name for the sprite must use a caret ( ^) instead of a backslash ( \). For example POSSA1 is the first walking frame of the zombie trooper, POSSG1 is the pain frame (the animations themselves can be controlled with DEHACKED or DECORATE ). You can have 29 frames of animation for any one sprite name, one for each letter of the alphabet plus. This only works with A_SpawnItemEx, and should not be attempted with anything else. They also must not be used for the first frame of an actor, as the lack of a sprite will cause the Missing Actor object to be spawned instead (dark red sign with a yellow exclamation point).Īctors spawned with A_SpawnItemEx can utilize SXF_TRANSFERSPRITEFRAME, allowing use of the two preserving names above for the first frame of the initializing actor. To be parsed correctly in DECORATE rather than ZScript, the -, # and # names must be placed within quotes (e.g., "-" A -1). An example is the GenericFreezeDeath state in Actor. Using # for the sprite means "keep previous sprite" and using # for the letter means "keep previous letter". # This sprite is interpreted as -, but with the difference that it allows overriding selectively either the sprite or the letter, or both. The frame letter is irrelevant, though "A" is generally used. A This sprite is interpreted as "keep previous sprite".

For actors needing to be invisible, use TNT1.

Even if graphics are provided (for example, a TNT1A0 lump), it will remain invisible. TNT1 A Originally introduced by TeamTNT in Boom, TNT1 frame A is an invisible sprite. There are three "reserved" sprite names that have specific effects. Also, there is this teleporter section near the end of map 8 which I was unable to finish, and from those idgames comments it also appears to be broken for others.Where NNNN is an arbitrary name for the sprite, F is a letter specifying the frame position (walking1, walking2, shooting, etc), and A specifies the angle. Encounters with some new and "improved" archies are to be expected, their attack is nerfed to being projectile-based but on the other hand they are able to actually -summon- new enemies of various types (yeah), in addition to just resurrecting fallen ones. Flaws: Bit too much chaingunners of the sniping variety, 'specially in map 2. Both gameplay and visuals improve as one progresses through the episode. As is to be expected considering its inspirations, colored lighting and Aubrey Hodges's music are put to extensive use. Decent stuff, nothing special but definitely worth playing.

Anyway, moving onīlack Mesa staff is known for always spending their time in a most productive manner:Īnother thing I played recently: Hell Awakened 2 E1įirst episode of a planned D64 & PSX Doom inspired megawad. Some cheap shit right there, kind of stuff that will force most player to reload a save.Īnyway, other than those pretty minor crap this is a damn solid stuff, HL fans will probably appreciate it even more than I did.Īh yes, another nitpick! Guy lending a voice to your employer, dude sounds bored as fuck. There is one part towards the end where a pretty heavy-hitting enemy is teleported just behind the player, and just before you enter arena-like area filled with other enemies. Also, while pacing is generally great and majority of maps are extremely well detailed and fun too explore, there is this pretty linear part with almost pitch black caverns and simplistic-looking canyon section that goes on a wee bit too long (not helped by the fact that it is filled by some rather annoying specimens of alien wildlife).Īlso, there are few moment when monsters are spawned right behind you, which is always bad. For example, both 3D models and sprites are used for NPCs, so you'll encounter say a static 3D scientist next to a few animated spritey ones. Pretty damn solid HL-inspired TC, with what is easily classiest and most extensive use of 3D geometry I encountered in a Doom TC. I decided to finally play through Paranoid, since it seems like sequel is actually getting released!
