I think I'm gonna try to make an alternate death later today for the Baron. Green blood is more fun to use. Hopefully it'll turn out.

For what it's worth, the 'Brutal Doom' mod gives a pretty good showcase of what many alternate death usages look like when put into action with each other.
Some I'm a bit iffy about as they have both monster legs lying ontop of each-other when one would probably be behind the other if a corpse is lying down. All that aside though it's all put together very very well. Oh yeah, and it's damn violent.

Any progress on these?

Is there anything I can help with?

Well, I have Eriance's ready to go, but I might need some help wadding up ItsNatureToDie's better deaths and tracking down some of the classic alternate deaths.

And before someone says "lol brutal doom haz them," I want to find the originals, to give proper credit to the authors.

The worst part of this would be the name conventions, am I right?

Probably, but I haven't gotten that far.

So, just to make sure I am understanding this correctly, when enough Alternate Death animations are gathered, you will create a separate wad file in which will contain all those Alternate animations. Then from there you can import them into your wad and the demons will have those deaths?
Or are you meaning simply putting them in the demons that are already here?...or is this ONLY for the Stock Monsters? I know the title is "Deaths for Stock Monsters" but I just want to make sure.

If you were thinking about having other death animations for the custom monsters on here, I was going to simply suggest to edit the submitted demons and just update them with the animations, and make it randomly choose which death animation to use when they die.

I'll put them into separate wads for separate monsters, uploaded in the same zip. A wad for the imp, a wad for the demon, etc., so it's easier to pick through and find what you want without having to dig through hundreds of sprites. It would also be easier to maintain, since a user adding another death would just have to upload, for example, the imp wad and not the whole thing.


Only stock Doom 2 monsters, for the moment. R667's will come later.


Yeah, and ItsNatureToDie did quite a few for R667 monsters as well.

This reminds me, I need to get on these.

have some imp sprites mate, i've made them for this project


also if you download this doom alpha:

there is an unused pinky death animation,i don't think it fits, but it could be edited
