Gameplay Mod [v1.35] SUPERCHARGED BULLET RIDE - MBF21 Resource / Mod

[vsared]

 

Are you ready?

 

Supercharged Bullet Ride is a slighty chaotic tribute mod to Supercharge (by Tango), preserving the weapon balance and punchy animations (no reloading, though) with some brutality sprinkled on top. Built using DoomTools and some help from SLADE. Intended mostly as a mapping resource, but it works as a gameplay mod, too. So, I'll se ya in the bullet hell. (No touhou chicks included)

dammit, fixed by now

one issue I had was while playing it with Valiant Vaccinated Edition. mancubi corpses still have collision, and it became a problem at MAP02, right next to the exit, as it was blocking me from going to it. other than that, great gameplay mod! probably one of my favorites! played on dsda-doom v0.25.6.

Def love seeing gameplay mods for MBF21, even when they're based on preexisting GZDoom mods

 

Any reason why the 'advanced engine needed' section in the text file specifies Doom-Retro and ZDoom? I tried this out with Woof and it's fork Nugget-Doom and they both work just fine. Maybe switch out that line with something like "MBF21 compatible ports"

One issue I did notice across all these ports is the palette. these lights in Entryway really don't like the software diminished lighting, and this palette also really brings out Doomguy's spontaneous acne the worst I've ever seen in a mod.

Thanks for the feedback and playing!

to fix both issues you'll have to edit the PLAYPAL lump in your wad, Specifically the colors that are supposed to go with Doomguy's face and what's responsible for the diminished lights, and then rebuild the COLORMAP

 

You might have to touch up the custom sprites that you made with the custom palette for them to look right, but it's unlike those you can't edit stuff from the iwads

fixed, changed the mugshot to avoid using iwad sprites, though (the colormap was fixed too)

What is the hud mod that you are using?

Not OP, but that's Doom Retro's alternate fullscreen HUD. Looks so good I'd recommend using Doom Retro for that reason alone.

[vsared]

Update [1.3]

Changes:

Added Pyro Knight collision.

Added Cybruiser collision.

 

Notes:

If nobody plays it nobody can notice it.

Touhou chicks when?

 

On a more serious note, is there a write up of all the content included?

uhhhh not yet, where should I list it?

[MoiraHeart]

Supercharged has it in the OP. Very convenient both for players and mappers  so they know what they're getting into.

[PhoenixBlade]

The sprites and animations are so good, I wish the Freedoom project would use them by default. They do a great job of looking similar to Doom, without it being 1:1.

I think the original post would be as good a place as any. Doesn't need to be anything too complex, just tell us how the new weapons work and how monsters are changed (if at all).

[vsared]

the weapons n' monsters specifications are coming soon™, my browser closed twice while writing em

Notes

Lower max ammo is to encourage faster gameplay, and because it's a prettier number.

Thanks for the manual! I'm tempted to map for this, what's your stance on the mod's usage? Can I include it right in my mod akin to the original Supercharge?
