Neat! I'll use this for CQPZ!

This thing is cool, but I can think of improvements. Don't want to put down your efforts but I am just making constructive criticism.

First of all it does not make sense for zorchers to leave marks behind such as that one. Zdoom has a thing where a sort of burn will be left on the wall for a second and then fade away. The doom plasma rifle does this in gzdoom and it looks very cool. It would normally leave a black burn mark after that, which is what I suspect that you changed, but in my opinion there should be nothing left. Just the fade effect and that's it. A similar effect can be used for the phasing zorcher and the laz device.

I dont think their is a way of geting rid of it. Boingo could open GZDOOM.pk3 and take all the splat names, and give them the cayn (Blue invisable color) on it.

Lucius · January 16, 2008, 11:29:12 PM

I think that would work. I can try working on this myself if I get the time.

hey! XWE opens pk3 as well! didn't yall know that? You really cant do wad editing with out XWE, so use it, you don't really have to wait on others.

I wouldn't recommend that. Every time I try to edit a .pk3 file with XWE, the engine useing it gets fragged.

Or you can use slumped witch is better!

SlumpEd is only for DeHackEd patches.

Atariangamer · January 21, 2008, 11:17:53 PM

Well, if you edit the main game file, yes the engine will be fragged. But with the use of batch files, you can run the game with the pk3 patch as an addon, not a replacement of it.

Like it could be called 'CQsplats.pk3', and you create in it using a Lump editor your data. You make a batch file to run gzdoom.exe with doomu.wad and CQsplats.pk3. Easy, quick and efficent. (I figgured out the pk3 thing by trying to open the quake files, the pk3 had an xwe icon.)

Funny, thats news to me.

The Slimeinator · January 23, 2008, 02:33:23 AM

Holy frag... I have been corrected... *head asplodes*

Holy frag... SlumpEd can edit .pk3 files without fragging the engine...

Atariangamer · January 23, 2008, 09:27:39 AM

wOoT! Does this mean you can continue with your skulltag project?

Thats interesting. How is slumped? Is it better than XWE?
