Despite what this says, its actually for any Doom IWAD. This silly little project was inspired from multiple sources: Brutal, boredom, procrastination and NIghtmare Logic.
I pounded this out in an afternoon since its been on my to do list for awhile, a Brutal Doom style mod that was under 1 megabyte in size. This little guy weighs in at 991kb.

DOWNLOAD: https://www.moddb.com/mods/kals-duke3d-weapons-mods/downloads/kd1mb-kals-doom-1-meg-beastupd-11124 

Basically this little guy is designed to pack a lot of visual punch and combat fun into as small of a size as possible. Monsters are less the vanilla but use vanilla art. Complementary Halo style shield built in for a class choice if you want to take it easy or tackle some slaughter 

Its pretty straightforward in its aim for simple and fast play bind a reload key and a grenade button. I played it with my XBOX controller.

KD1MB

A tiny experiment of making a tiny Brutal Doom style clone under 1 megabyte in size.

This little dude is designed to bring as much bang as possible in Brutal Styled combat, special effects like water splashes, enhanced AI, explosions, reloading, grenades, and sounds. Please note that there is zero Brutal Doom involved in this and is only a proper description for the combat pacing.

All Enemies have vanilla health, but have changed AI on them.

Bind a reload key and a grenade button(default set to G)

Halo style armor class that regens Armor and Health for those times you want to play it easier.

One added Difficulty that is experimental which randomizes and can increase spawns of Imps, Zombiemen and SHotgunners, base UV and inspired by LZDoom UNholy Massacre difficulty.

Requires GZDoom or LZDoom currently. Have not started a back port to Zandronum yet.

Greetings and salutations! Welcome to the development thread for Fury's Sky: Vagabond, the successor to my older GZ-based flight game, Fury's Sky.

FAQ

Q1. Why a new game? Why not just finish the old one?

A1. There are a couple reasons for this. A large part of it was that the code base for FS1 was an unmaintainable mess of spaghetti that was only going to cause problems and induce aggravation going forward. This is largely because, when I started work on FS, I had been seriously programming for less than a year. Mistakes and bad practices were bound to happen. While I'm overall pleased with the work I did, especially considering my lack of experience, it was time to move on. Another reason was to just start from the drawing board creatively and come up with newer, more interesting scenarios and gameplay.

Q2. What's gonna be different about Vagabond?

A2. Vagabond will be a vast improvement on the FS concept in terms of gameplay and feel. Even in it's relatively early state, it still has a number of unique features such as an auto-targeting system that reveals enemy health and provides a target for lock-on weapons, a more in-depth and streamlined weapon system for easy development and prototyping of aircraft weaponry, improved controls and handling, and, like I was aiming for, a more streamlined codebase. Further down the line I'm gunning for a more non-linear mission structure, multiple plane classes, and a LOT of weapons.

Q3. What are some returning features in Vagabond from the original?

A3. A lot of the basic controls and gameplay functions are still the same. Steering is still done with the mouse, throttle is still manually controlled, players can still somersault and barrel roll by holding Shift and tapping one of the WASD keys, and the airbrake is as functional as ever, with the energy shield and all.

Q4. Are there any playable builds available?

A4. As of this writing, not yet. Vagabond is still in a very early stage and it will be a while before a single mission is even in the game. Good news is, the game is progressing quickly, and I might just have a build out sooner than I think. In the meantime, follow this thread for development news and check out some early screenshots.

Screenshots and media: 

Fist: Just a sprite change. That's it.

Pistol: No sprite changes, although it fires three times as fast, making it less accurate but laughably easy to shred any of the lesser enemies.

Shotgun: Ok, maybe I overdid this one. Its fully automatic, making short work of practically anything given that you have enough shell ammo. Also ejects shell casings while firing.

Super shotgun: No sprite changes, but it fires like a pump action shotgun. Reverse engineered from the SSG from Rowdy Rudy: Powertrip.

Chaingun: An edit of the chaingun sprites from Wolfhound (I don't recall seeing them anywhere else). Fires in fast bursts, eating up ammo quickly but also able to stunlock almost everything. Also ejects bullet casings.

Rocket launcher: Slightly faster fire speed, combined with sprites shamelessly stolen from NoSP3. I initially wanted to make it into a grenade launcher, but it isn't the same without the grenades, and there is no way to make that in vanilla.

Plasma rifle: The iconic plasma rifle from Wolfhound (originally it was from some random-ass Brutal Doom addon from moddb). Fires in slavos slightl faster than in vanilla, and with a better animation.

BFG: There is no BFG replacement. I got to lazy to make it, but I guess you could say that there is nothing better than the (vanilla) BFG.

Also the wad includes Brutal Doom style gore and blood splats, but for some reason they stay where they are, for example if you shoot something on a platform that's going, down the blood will stay floating in the air (Although it does look like the gore is on the wall if the thing you shot was near a wall at the moment).

Walpurgis is a Gameplay Mod that works with Doom, Heretic, and Hexen!

It is for the latest version of GZDoom (ONLY).

Walpurgis is...

• A gameplay mod that works with Doom, Hexen and Heretic, straight out of the Box!
• Focused on giving everything three fire-modes without needing any extra resources, just balancing them around standard blue and green mana/ammo consumption.
• Upgrades for each of those afformentioned fire-modes (think Trailblazer).
• Strong and fun, but balanced. Extra care has been put into making everything have punch and impact and be fun to use but not the level of overkill. I'm a mad perfectionist when I get going; so repeatedly testing something over and over whilst I tweak values is not unusual.
• Gothically medieval, with a taste of moderate-high fantasy. Magic is meant to semi-common in the world, whether through artifacts, or mystical items.
• Based around play where you get used to using both your arsenal and your inventory items in tandem. Flechettes and Discs of Repulsion are really useful now; so use them!
• Rigorously playtested with custom doom, heretic, and hexen wads to get a feel for how it plays with them; and to see if I can find reason to switch between my arsenal all the time (which is the sign of a good arsenal, in my opinion).
• Is named this way because... well, "Hexen" are witches from germanic folklore. Walpurgisnacht is a grand festival for witches in general. So as a festival of new content for Hexen related shenanigans; its doubly relevant.

Thanks for checking out Walpurgis!

When I was a kid, and still now, I've always been a fantasy nerd, so Hexen was always one of my favourite Doom spinoffs: I've long wanted to create something for it, something similar to what Heretical did for Heretic, but the initial step forwards was always something I was lethargic about. After all, I'm not much of a natural coder; my skills lie in spriting and writing by default.

Walpurgis was originally based on a now discontinued mod called 'HexArcana' by 4page, of which I did a fork for my own personal usage. Since then it spiralled massively out of control, and it turned gradually from a spinoff into full-fledged mod of its own. It now shares very little with HexArcana as its been gradually shaped by my vision of what I wanted in a Hexen mod, like upgraded weapons, lots of fire modes, and universal game compatibility.

I'm not exactly the best Doom player in the box, so my design philosophy is strong and fun, but balanced. Extra care has been put into making everything have punch and impact and be fun to use but not the level of overkill. I'm a mad perfectionist when I get going; so repeatedly testing something over and over whilst I tweak values is not unusual.

Most recent changelog

Doom Delta is a mod for GZDoom that aims to bring together many elements from the pre-release iterations of Doom, including (but not limited to) the alpha builds, the press release beta, and Tom Hall's Doom Bible. Elements such as the helmet HUD from early alphas, enemy designs, unique characters, and unused weapon concepts return.

The idea is to take these unused concepts and properly flesh them out, giving them the proper attention and polish they deserve. The end goal is to provide a cohesive experience that provides a fun and enjoyable experience with the aesthetic and feel of the pre-release Doom content.

• Four unique characters inspired by the Doom Bible!
• Three fully functional HUD styles, including the helmet HUD from Doom v0.3!
• Reimagined weapons such as the Rifle/Bayonet, the Dark Claw, and the Unmaker!
• New enemies such as the Gargoyle and The Blob!
• Score system with treasure items and kill bonuses!
• New powerups such as damage-absorbing shields and the Chaos Field!
• Vanilla-style sound design!

Fists
Your two closest friends, in case you want to change the formality with your otherwordly invaders... or if you run out of ammo.

Chainsaw
You're technically not supposed to have this, but this makeshift weapon is a great suppressant for nosey demons.

Rifle
A standard issue UAC rifle, hailing from the alpha builds. High accuracy and decent damage make this weapon great for picking off demons from farther away. Comes with a bayonet attached to the barrel!

Shotgun
Ol' reliable, with the original barrel from the alphas. Deliver a nasty blast right up close or from far away; the shotgun is great at both!

Super Shotgun
The UAC's top of the line! Based off of the early SSG design, these two barrels and a hair trigger deliver three times the power of the shotgun.

Machine Gun
The machine gun, returning from Doom v0.3! A rapid-fire weapon used to take down demons faster than the rifle. Be careful, though; it's not quite as accurate.

Chaingun
Six barrels of gunfire, guaranteed to rip enemies into shreds! It starts out pretty slow, but the longer you fire it, the faster it gets. Great for tearing through crowds.

Rocket Launcher
Spews out rockets that can reduce even the toughest enemies to mush. Keep your distance, or you'll be mush too!

Grenade Launcher

Fires grenades that can bounce off walls and around corners! They don't travel very far, though.

Plasma Rifle
This weapon uses energy cells to pump out multi-colored balls of hot plasma, reducing demons to a fine mist in a heartbeat. It's just like Christmas!

BFG 2704
The UAC's top-secret special weapon, with very few models in existence. Sneezes out a flurry of plasma that decimates whatever (and whoever) stands in its way! You'll bust a nut so good you'll take yourself to Red Lobster.

Dark Claw
Hailing from the Doom Bible is this severed demon arm that runs autonomously off of soul energy. Harness it to cast out dark clouds of torment and torture that rip through demons like paper! Runs on human souls.

Unmaker
A cursed mass of flesh and bone hailing from the Doom Bible that unleashes tortured souls to clear a room of a demonic presence. It doesn't have much effect on possessed soldiers or mechanical demons, however. Runs on human souls.

Among the usual Doom items, you can find these new ones lying about:

Shields
Shields are inventory items that protect against specific types of damage. Unlike other devices, you can toggle these at will, conserving energy. Each time the shield successfully blocks an attack, energy is consumed. Shield energy can be replenished by picking up another shield of the same type.

Chaos Field
A demonic sphere of pure, concentrated hatred. Constantly emits a powerful aura that causes demons to fight amongst themselves.

Demon Armor
Carved from the strongest of discarded demon bones, this incredibly durable set of armor absorbs around 80% of all incoming damage. Thanks, Satan!

Soul Jar
A jar filled to the brim with tormented souls. Collecting one will lend you eight souls and expand your maximum capacity from 36 to 66 souls!

Lorelei Chen
Fiercely competitive, Lorelei intimidates most people. She was the undisputed champion of her troop's boxing championship. She lost a bet that meant she had to pull her application for a glory post, leaving her with a post on Phobos. No one calls her Lorelei.

Lorelei is fast, and is a crack shot with the standard rifle and her fists. However, she isn't used to using the bayonet or the chainsaw in combat.

John Pietrovich
Former head of security at Deimos Labs, Pietro grew tired of the overwhelming bureaucracy of the UAC. He was assigned to Phobos by his request, so that he could get away from the epicenter of annoyance while finishing out his term of duty.

John performs well in a variety of scenarios. He excels with shell-based weapons like the shotgun, but has trouble controlling explosive weaponry.

Dimitri Paramo
Dimitri is basically stuck in the low ranks of the military, but that suits him just fine. He wants nothing more from life: give him a clear objective and the chance to release aggression through the freely available high-powered firearms, and he's happy.

Dimitri is notably slow, but his resistance to damage and splash damage makes him a living tank. He's experienced with every weapon in the UAC's arsenal.

Thi Barret
Thi has a friendly, if straight-laced, disposition. Her father was a career soldier that gave Thi a strong sense of duty and honor. She volunteered for the Phobos post with a desire to have a variety of experience in her military career.

Thi is more susceptible to damage, but is able to dodge projectiles better with her high speed and small frame. She excels with the bayonet and the machine gun, but isn't experienced in hand-to-hand combat.

Features:

• Vanilla pk3s for doom2 mods and doom64CE, and .pk3s with new zscript behaviors.  These behaviors include: a random gas cloud, weakness to plasma/bfg, a arc of death-like spark trail to its ball lightning, more limited eyesight and hearing range, the player is capable of shooting its eye out for critical damage sending it into a blind fury, dropping a "cacodemon cell" organ that gives the player 30 cells when killed normally, exploding and removing itself from the map if killed with plasma or bfg, and "afterspark" effects if the player is hit directly and on its corpse when it dies.  Just being close to the lightningball without getting hit could still cause some damage, with the direct damage getting nerfed slightly to compensate all these added damaging effects.
• Doom 64's original cacodemon design (or doom 2, if you're using it there) can be summoned as "Beholder" and it has 200 hp, making it a lesser cacodemon kind of like the hell knight to the baron of hell.  You can change the name to whatever you want, but it's what I went with for the chained floating head with arms.
• The vanilla caco uses whatever is the default cacodemon sounds. The enhanced one has sndinfo definitions and sounds folder providing the classic cacodemon sounds from doom 1 to make it more "authentic" to the original even when used in doom 64.

I'm also renaming this thread to "classic styled doom64 monsters project" since more people are having a go at monster redesigns; the goal being to have a set of monsters for doom 64 that are both more faithful to the anatomy seen in doom1 and doom2 and fitting to doom 2's overall darker atmosphere.

Here is another take on the cacodemon by Craneo:

And an imp (also Craneo):

Old OP:

Wasn't sure if this belongs on Creative Works board, but my intention is to finish a full set of sprites to replace the cacodemon for use with Doom 64 Retribution/CE/Brutal/etc.  

A lot of doomers complain about how the cacodemon looks in Doom 64 — it's kinda obvious the guy doing the art was given sprites of the cacodemon and pain elemental and got them mixed up (or their original idea was to have the cacodemon shoot two electric balls until they got a nastier idea...).  So instead of being a whiny baby, I want to do something about it.  I drew this up today:

DRAFT 1:               DRAFT 2:              DRAFT 3:           FINAL:

Before charging ahead and making the rest of the frames, I want feedback to make sure this is going in the right direction.  I suspect Doom64 has it's own palette, but I'm too cheap to pay $5 for an official Doom64 wad to access it.  I used the standard Doom playpal.  If someone has the doom64 palette, can they please hook me up here?

Doom 64 uses darker colors for its monsters.  The "pain elemental" sprites use even darker reds than this.  They're also "darker" aesthetically.  The cacodemon rework should be creepy and terrifying, but I think it's also important to have a lot of consistency with it's original design, which is a hard line to toe with how silly the original looked.  Getting the "muzzle area" right is a challenge because I don't want it so light it looks like a Goof Troop snout.

Give suggestions or critique if you have any, or any sprite editors feel free to download it and tweak it yourself as I'm about to go to bed posting this.  Once I have a side and back sprite done I may import it to magicavoxel to make a model.  I also want to make a new blue/cyan ball lightning projectile instead of the fireball the doom64 one spits, and if I get too ambitious, an XDeath explosion that causes splash damage (not a faithful addition, but an idea I think could be interesting.  Maybe triggered by plasma/bfg because of an electric conduction).  Ehh... I'm getting ahead of myself there.  Thoughts on this front sprite?  I'll keep the thread updated.

^{(last updated: v3.0 - 03/27/2023 | click here for direct link | click here for weapons-only version courtesy of @NovaRain}

Supercharge is a mapping resource and gameplay mod for GZDoom/Zandronum, with new and altered monsters and weapons. It is the continuation of the gameplay mod featured in Paradise, and I intend to continue iterating on it and using it in my future mapping projects.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Compatible with GZDoom 4.0.0 and up, Zandronum 3.0 and up, and ZDoom 2.8.1; earlier GZDoom versions or LZDoom may also work, but are untested
• Requires a Doom IWAD to play (doom.wad, doom2.wad, tnt.wad, plutonia.wad, etc.)
• Hardware rendering mode strongly recommended; non-hardware rendering modes may have visual oddities
• Probably will not play well with other mods or mapsets that have significant gameplay tweaks

SCREENSHOTS:

GIFS: tbd

GENERAL INFO:

• Frills and effects! New weapon and monster sprites, new sounds, bullet casings, alternate deaths, gibs, terrain splashes, two "new" HUDs, and other various things.
• Automatic pistol starts (GZDoom only)! In game, navigate to "SC Options" from the main menu to toggle this setting.
• Normalized damage across the board! Each player and monster attack now does a set, non-random amount of damage. The non-random values are generally what the average random version would be. A projectile formerly dealing between 10 and 20 damage would now do 15, for example.
• Instant weapon switching! Weapon switching is instant for ALL weapons. This allows you to combo certain weapon shots together. Fire a rocket then quickly switch to a super shotgun blast, or hammer away at your pistol clip then instantly switch to a plasma volley!
• New monsters and tweaked weapons! See the respective categories below for more info.

I just created a new mod that add 2 new difficulties: Ultra-Violence+, and Ultra-Nightmare.

Tbh I'm learning how to use GZDoom lumps to modify the game, and I did this one modifying MAPINFO.txt and LANGUAGE.txt, since it includes a new confirmation message for the Ultra-Nightmare difficulty.

Also, I made the graphics for both difficulties since on most vanilla Dooms, it looked kinda with by changing just the display name.

I would like to add something like permadeath from Metadoom to the Ultra-Nightmare difficulty, but I'm no coding expert and I've looked at it, and it uses action codescript afak, so I dunno if I could make it happen properly. If I can understand it, maybe I would use the Soft Permadeath mod as a template to understand how to add it here.

The Ultra-Violence+ works primarily just as the Unity ports, so it can also be an addition to your mods list if you're looking for something like that.

Anyway, it may be a nifty addition for someone. Thanks a lot.

Updated main file( D4v ReZDoom V3ex.pk3) with minor combat enhancements. The only noticeable one is the cyberdemon overhaul.

Added new files to expand gameplay options.

Code only Weapons- vanilla graphics, but performs close to similar to main mod

Code only monsters- vanilla graphics monsters. Can be ran with the code only weapons pk3 safely.

Monsters only- supplies full graphics, but is meant for use as a monster pack. Can also be played by itself.

PRboom vanilla skins wad

- weapons and monster skins only that works on almost everything except chocolate Doom

4/27/23-- Fixed Dynamic lights on everything, Removed Texture pack from main RezDoom.pk3. added D3forDTXCustom.pk3 textures and LW30-Dhtp-Exkalibered.wad for Texture variety reasons. All extra texture wads are Zandronum friendly.

Doom 4 Vanilla ReZDoom

//////////////////////

This was a small project undertaken to revamp the combat that seems to miss the mark in Doom 4 mods

using the best sprite resources from D4V- Doom 4 Vanilla, Realm667, and FreeDoom. This project is not a reimagining or expansion

to D4V. This project was to get the feeling close to "correct" for how OG Doom Engine and Doom 4 could mesh together.

The idea here is to blend the best of both worlds and spew out a worthwhile gameplay mod.

Project Goals:

1. ZDoom 2.8 Compatible-- This way it performs the same across the entire family

This is not a D4V expansion designed to be played on everything.

Players, guns and Monsters. The real action is in ZDoom, Zandronum, GZDoom.

2.Simplicity-- Move, jump, shoot, have fun. No Glory Kills, no weapon mods. There is only 1 altfire

attached to all guns and that is punching. The gun roster is the Classic Doom 2 roster

albeit they are slightly adjusted for timing.

3. Combat Accuracy-- No glory kills, no chainsaw ammo dumps. What is mostly accurate, within reason and code ability, is

1. Player Movement: from ZDoom Default-- Jumps slightly higher, falls faster, Runs a little bit slower

all designed to match Doom 2016 as close as possible.

2. Monster fighting.-- This is the bread and butter and the entire reason to play this mod. This is

the entire let down with "most" Doom 4 conversion mods that this mod seeks to rectify.

Monsters are Doom 2 Roster, but adjusted to be very close to their Doom 4 counterparts

while keeping a balance for Classic Doom map style for ANY pwads or Iwads.

A.Zombieman-- Random spawns a Zombie or an Infantry. They both are slow, and they

Both have slightly expanded movement to climb and drop. Infantry packs a gun that

Hitscans but also leaves a tracer. All bullets on player and ZOmbies leave tracers

B.Shotgunner is very Doom 2 vanilla but with expanded movement to climb and drop.

C. Chaingunner-- expanded movement same as above-- Performs vanilla otherwise for better or worse.

D. Doom Imp-- The first major overhaul, and just like in Doom 4 he is the most annoying enemy.

He strafes and climbs, generally staying at distance from Doomguy Slayerman.

His melee attack is very fast so you'll probably get a bruise or two if you want

bash his skull in.

E. Pinky-- He's big and Pink and will ram you in the stink. This guy will break physics a little bit

but nothing that is completely intolerable. Same thing for brother Spectre

F. HellKnight-- This dude I tried to get accurate for his action cues and stuff. He still has a Bruiser Ball

to throw, but he goes thru a charge up animation mimicking him requiring effort to do it.

His main defaults are very physical and in your face including a jump attack.

G. Baron-- This guy was probably the easiest to get accurate. He has his charge attack and his very mean green ball

that is way stronger than HellKnight. He does a charge up animation before either Ranged attack so as to

give the Player a warning signal akin to Doom 4 proper.

H.Mancubus and Mancubus--- Basically 2 different versions replace the Arachnotron and OG-Fatso respectively.

Not much else to say.

I. CacoDemon-- This guy strafes in air and is much more mobile than Classic Doom version.

J. Bones--- I'll be straight here. I am not putting in a jetpack skeleton even with the sprites available.

Bones is staying vanilla because he's already deadly enough. Other monsters already break

most maps as is, and another flyer that has seeker rockets is just too much for most PWADS

to handle.

K. Painboy-- He is vanilla. He outclasses most Doom 4 monsters by himself, and only got a Sprite upgrade

that slightly matches the theme better. Courtesy of FreeDoom Pain Elemental sprite.

L. SpiderMom-- BigMomma sticking with her gatlin gun.

M. CyberDemon-- This guy is staying Vanilla other than his looks. If you want specialized Cybers then I have plenty

of variants i can recommend in other mods. This idea is also to be spectrum friendly to most map makers

out there without burning their traps and tricks to the ground.

N. Archvile-- This guy, just like in Doom 4 proper, is the biggest departure from everything we know about classic Doom.

As Such I had to make HER as accurate as possible because she deserves it.

She Teleports--not really, but with enough settings and animation, it sure seems like she is, and I wrote her code!

She Summons-- She summons Zombies, Infantry and Imps. She can only summon 1 at a time, and she does not do it

very often 85/256 chance that she will initiate a summon.

She is faster than hell-- There was no avoiding this so as to get the crown jewel accurate.

The Good News--- she cannot revive burned. enemy corpses! Yes she can revive stuff, have no fear.

A couple of basic guidelines:

-As mentioned, you can post stuff for either Heretic or Hexen, it can be either textures or decorations, and it can be either edited or completely original. No weapons, items, or monsters for now, please.

-If you have made some original textures for Doom that you think would look good in Heretic/Hexen, feel free to convert the palette and post them here. However, please do not post recognizable edits of stock Doom (or Strife) resources.

-If applicable, please specify whether your graphics use the Heretic or Hexen palette.

-If you're posting lots of content, consider putting some of it inside spoiler tags as a courtesy to people browsing the thread.

-Since resources are limited, I'm sure we've all hit that wall where we could have made the perfect room or setting, if only we'd had that one really cool thing that nobody has made yet. Feel free use this thread as a wishlist; all wishes will be added to the second post in this thread for easy visibility. What do you think is missing from the existing resources that you'd really like to see?

Some top picks for existing resources:

Baker's Legacy (and other texture packs)

Mor'Ladim's prop pack, which has lots of cool decorations

ETTiNGRiNDER's C.R.U.E.L. texture pack for Hexen

NJHereTex, a library of all the stuff Not Jabba has made/edited

Converted texture packs for Heretic

Some info on using the Heretic palette:

To get us started, here's some stuff I've been working on. Critiques are appreciated, especially for the weapon/armor racks, which were a big undertaking for me. Everything below is paletted .pngs in the Heretic palette.

GET IT NOW!!!!!!

EDIT 09.12.2022
Added all missing light trims, bigdoor1, few gray textures, shawn2, redwall, pipe2, brownhug and lots of new flats. I also added alternative low resolution versions: 512 and 256. Especially 256 version is best suited to a pixelated environment of Doom, so if someone doesn't like the contrast between high resolution textures and the rest of the game, I advise you to use 256 version.

EDIT 09.05.2022:
I decided to update only version with png's in 1K, because 2K tga version would soon reach horrendous 1GB. Most of the textures from the first episode are ready, there are only a few left, including another time-consuming tekwall.

EDIT 09.02.2022:
From now a new, smaller version is available (1K PNG instead of 2K TGA, 132MB instead of 520MB). There is no visual difference, at least for me, but this version loads much faster. I put links to both files below.

Hi!
Here's little update of my pbr project. Below is a package of materials that I have managed to do so far. Some of these you already know, some are brand new, some are placeholders (ok, there's a lot of placeholders yet). There are quite few of the most important textures from the first levels of the first Doom episode, but some are still missing. They can be used as alternatives to already existing packages. In future, I'm going to release some material variations (e.g. metal or concrete) to choose from according to your predisposition. Remember that PBR materials require dynamic lighting, so I recommend using the package with mods such as "Enhanced E1" by Wran (link below) or something similar. You can use this package as you like, distribute, edit, etc., just credit me.

As always, I'm open to all suggestions and opinions, but please remember that I do it as a hobby, in my spare time, and I don't have too much of it, so work on this pack progressing very slowly. Hope you enjoy it.

This Zandronum* mod made by creators from a private community contains a ton of classes based on OC's and well known characters (From Peppino Spagghetti from pizza tower to the most obscure characters Dr.Doomguy from Dr.Doom)

each of the characters have their own arsenals and Gimmicks, Most of them are mostly tested with Multiplayer but they are playable on singleplayer!

*This mod will only work with zandronum, GZdoom will not work and most classes will break in some cases.

CHANGELOG

CREDITS?

This can be looked at as an update to Per Kristan's Hi-res sound pack. He gave me permission for using his sounds, but very few of them are even from his mod anymore, as I decided to try to find the sounds myself... Why? Because I wanted the sound effects without any form of 8-bit quantization; as these are 16-bit sounds. If that isn't a big deal, this will be. Here are some things worth noting about the mod:

1. All 107 sounds are accounted for.
2. Doors sound much closer to the originals than PK's. I spent way too much time trying to get those to sound just right, as PK's sounded a bit off.
3. The pistol is ACTUALLY the original pistol now! I combined PK's with the original using High-Pass filters (I used those a lot when working on this).
4. The player death sound is now the original!
5. These sounds have absolutely no noise, so, use them if you want. Especially for Brutal Doom.
6. Extra sounds are available for use! I borrowed from sound caulking, but not as many sounds are changed as compared to that mod. I also made sure they fit in well. THESE WILL ONLY WORK IN ZDOOM BASED ENGINES!
7. Lots of sounds from the earlier sound pack have been edited to be more like the original 11kHz versions; minus compression, of course.
8. Both Shotguns are now exactly the same as the original versions! (Same High-Pass strategy)
9. Mancubus sight sound was reworked entirely. It isn't 1-to-1 the original, but is far closer.
10. Explosions are now like the original. There are 3 or 4 explosions on Sound Ideas that sound alike, Per Kristan just picked the wrong one. He also though there was a thud at the beginning of the sound... There wasn't.
11. DSSWTCHN was a bit off in the previous pack. I managed to make a 1-to-1 recreation.

The list goes on and on, but I think I spoiled enough. Enjoy Doom with improved sound effects. Hopefully you'll never want to go back. Spread the word; especially to Bethesda. Ask them to add these into the upcoming Addons menu in the most recent re-release.

The mod is now on Google Drive. You will no longer be able to go back to a previous version past v2. Sorry. Thank this site's size limit for that. I will remind everyone to click on the link again whenever an update is released, I guess it makes things a bit easier? I dunno.

Hayden49_MIDI.zip (335kb)

Generally, you can expect these to work in Crispy Doom, DSDA Doom, Woof, Eternity, GZDoom, and tentatively, Doomsday (This port has consistently given me the most issues), and there is also usually a seperate file for use in older ports that only use regular MAPINFO, due to conflicts. They are all highly modular too, so you can pick and choose parts to use. All vanilla wads will have xINFO patches (MAPINFO, ZMAPINFO, EMAPINFO, UMAPINFO), a GAMEINFO lump and an embedded Dehacked/Bex patch for compatibility with pretty much everything, and many also support Doomsday where possible. Doomsday and Eternity do not support any of the widescreen assets.

I have a consistent naming scheme in my patches to quickly identify them; '_fix' is the baseline patch, '_fixint' is an edit of the main patch that integrates bonus levels into the existing set for a seamless unbroken campaign (Usually a bonus MAP33 coming after MAP32), and anything with _old is a MAPINFO-only version. Widescreen statusbars are always seperate from the other widescreen assets if present, as there are mods that replace the huds that garble with a widescreen statusbar in use. All of these mods load on top of the original wad, leaving the original wad unaltered. In some older level packs I have fixed some levels with secrets contained in improperly deleted sectors; this is usually the extent of the fixes to levels, as other bugs stopping 100% are usually solvable with NOCLIP or console commands to kill monsters, and I do not wish to change any geometry of someone elses work. Other level fixes are provided by other users and solve critical issues.

For the first batch I have ready: (Keep in mind these are only tested by me and may have mistakes somewhere; please report any to me)

Thank you to @Gez and @rfomin for advice here and there, and @Kyka for occasionally testing some of these, as well as all the people in the Widescreen appreciation thread for inspiring these patches in the first place back in 2001, and of course, all the people that made the wads these patches give some love to :)

As an extra, check out my Master Levels patch for similar patches, and my Unity Port conversions which originated from these very patches

I have a bunch more stuff to come; anything I ported to the official Unity Port is definitely on the way. Also, those Heretic and Hexen tags aren't errors..

• Eye Of The Storm (storm.wad, replaces MAP09):
  • a thousand little toothpick-pricks all over your body
  • glass about to shatter type creaks
  • egg about to break, something old and musty about to break out
  • overall quiet and muted, lazed-out background stuff ala Carpenter. Anticipant!
  • cover art: a mosh-pitting crowd in the La Tomatina Festival
• Temple Of Death (todeath.wad, replaces map05):
  • if you have a favorite "pen & paper D&D background music" album, vibe off that!
  • winds blowing—it was a dark and stormy night!
  • mix in some mustiness of moss growing in the cracks of 1000-year old brick, stretching down miles long corridors
  • cover art: a fracturing skull, resting on top of an exploding barrel just as it explodes
• Derelict Station (Derelict.wad, replaces MAP02):
  • hectic sci-fi vibe, as many BPM as demonically possible
  • map's kinda short but sweet, so no longwindedness
  • the sound of big steel slabs sliding off other big steel slabs
  • subtle computer blips & bloops?
  • haunted tech glitching out
  • cover art: a coiled silver necklace with a crazy mini-pearled ornament, resting on white silk
• We Who Are About To Die (Arena.wad, replaces MAP06):
  • whatever brings the mood of a gladiator arena to the front
  • gongs, cheers, bone-cracks, etc
  • the arena's kinda abandoned, so maybe give it all a ghostly vibe
  • the "gladiators" are more prisoners than celebrated warriors, so add an aura of oppression
  • cover art: the "obey" meme
• The Image Of Evil (the_evil.wad, replaces MAP30):
  • big map, so longer tune I suppose
  • a somewhat pleasant elemnet of unruly chaos creeping in
  • drift into the abstract of how you view music
  • a smattering of try-hard intellectualism—more confusing than revealing
  • a naive sense of accomplishment should tie it all together
  • cover art: the IDDT map view
• Bloodflood (Flood.wad, replaces MAP03):
  • initially designed as a deathmatch map, if that brings any sonic associations
  • its a remix of sorts on Entryway from Doom 2, so maybe tribute from "Running From Evil", without being TOO obvious?
  • a poisonous river runs through it. Think cybernetic salmons and the odd unholy sermon, performed by imps. Nothing too spectacular. :)
  • maybe something akin to ML 25th OST track 02—Guess We Are Then?
  • cover art: A pale & skinny vampire bear hunting many fat cyborg salmon in a river, but failing. Some of the salmon have lasers shooting from their eyes, directed at the bear
• The Watchtower (watchtwr.wad, replaces map04):
  • Think manic ambition culled by severe and convoluted limitations, yet still keeping the core vision recognizably intact
  • Like fitting a city inside an envelope without harming anyone, or folding a piece of paper the maximum number of times without tearing the fabric
  • Its a meandering map with some tedious backtracking pretty much unavoidable on first play, so something to calm the nerves a little perhaps, something friendly
  • Not too friendly, the lights have a tendency to go out
  • cover art: a tall tower overlooking an expansive bowled city of low citadel structures, interwoven by staircase paths rising outwards towards a sun-blurred edge, where the tower's shadow casts the only solid silhouette

And if you want further "cues" just listen to the original tracks in their map slots—Sverre put them in those slots so they would have those tunes attached, from the available ones in Doom II... For every composer's convenience, I also included the freely available maps as packed together in their 1.1 compilation, original map slots & all, so you could play them for further inspiration
