Idea for the Mod

Hi I have a idea for the mod. I don´t know if it´s possible, but I make some sprites. My idea is that when you use the torch from the inventary, these sprites appears While carrying the torch, you can´t use weapons in both hands I hope you like it <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc2.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> [img:osp472sr]http://files.myopera.com/Cyberbot/HeXen/Torch.PNG[/img:osp472sr]

DOOM III tried the "either flashlight or weapon" approach and everybody hated it.

Yes, it´s truth Well, I´ll work in more creatures <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc2.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

What mod you are talking about here? Kmod3 or Scattered Evil? I ask because Kmod3 is postponed for uncertain time and if it is about SE, these topics should be moved to appropriate subforum.

I didn´t know about the postponement of Kmod3 It was only a generic idea for the mod, I´m create it for Koraxmod, but If you like it for another mod I have not any problem <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc2.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

Or this could be posted in the dev forums... For better organization. But perhaps you could only be able to use these with one handed weapons? Then again this may have been what he meant in the first post.

Ok. The next time I´ll post in Dev Forums <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc2.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

Yes, I like to say that XD

I like the sprites, but the general idea of using these combined with weapons is a bit difficult to implement in the code... I don't know if there would be a way to do it. Definitely not a bad idea IMO.

I´m glad you like it <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc6.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> This is a new progress of the torch [img:2six00fk]http://files.myopera.com/Cyberbot/HeXen/TorchFixed1.PNG[/img:2six00fk] I think too that is very difficult to implement in the code <!-- s:oops: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orcdeb.gif" alt=":oops:" title="Embarassed" /><!-- s:oops: --> And I shows you a new monster, the medusa, and the characters transform in stone <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc2.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> [img:2six00fk]http://files.myopera.com/Cyberbot/HeXen/Medusa.PNG[/img:2six00fk] [img:2six00fk]http://files.myopera.com/Cyberbot/HeXen/Stone.PNG[/img:2six00fk]

In fact, implementing the torch as was mentioned (at one time with single weapon), is not difficult but impossible at the moment. I was wondering if I may implement a flashlight for Doom mod, and asked Janis if custom HUD sprites could be inserted in game, but the answer was no. So, it is currently an engine restriction.

It´s a pity. <!-- s:( --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc10.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad" /><!-- s:( --> I´ll continue with the monsters <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc2.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

Hey, Rolls, I have an idea for you. Some time ago I wrote about rising undead here: <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://korax-heritage.com/board/viewtopic.php?p=16571#p16571">viewtopic.php?p=16571#p16571</a><!-- l -->
Remember poor puny dead-men scattered all over Hexen maps - chained... pierced by a spear... Now imaging walking around, coming close to such harmless piece of decor... and suddenly... BOOOO!
A sketch: [img:89x4cc51]http://downloads.orcishweb.com/koraxdev/crimson/se/concept_art/undead_001_concept.jpg[/img:89x4cc51] Basically, idea is to make monsters based on those dead bodies from Hexen. When idle they look just like the decor, and when you come closer they activate and attack you.

It´s a great idea!! Is fantastic! <!-- s:o --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc5.gif" alt=":o" title="Surprised" /><!-- s:o --> <!-- s:o --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc5.gif" alt=":o" title="Surprised" /><!-- s:o --> <!-- s:o --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc5.gif" alt=":o" title="Surprised" /><!-- s:o --> I go to work in it now! <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc6.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Here I put a first preview of one of them. I´m still missing many details, but it is a breakthrough <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc6.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> [img:ggvdqrzl]http://files.myopera.com/Cyberbot/HeXen/upreview.bmp[/img:ggvdqrzl]

Awesome. Its a great idea and looks like its being well done so far. <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc6.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> So keep it up, Rolls.

wow, it was a good idea to tell you this concept <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc6.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> We will add this creature to game as soon as sprites are ready in general.

Oh, so you have been part of the Korax Team for quite a while now, Rolls. <!-- s:P --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orc4.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s:P --> After seeing some of your other sprite sets I was about to recommend you to the devs. <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orclaught2.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> Great sprites, as always.

Oh, only one thing. I see you used blood for the one with spear. I suggest not using blood for them, 'cause they are undead, plus it is obvious they are long ago rotten and dried corpses, so no blood could left. <!-- s:evil: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/orcevil.gif" alt=":evil:" title="Evil or Very Mad" /><!-- s:evil: -->
