[Update] Freeze Rifle

I just downloaded the Freeze Rifle from the armory and noticed a small bug. The Deselect state has the wrong sprite, it displays the vanilla plasma rifle instead. Since it was an easy fix, here is the update.

It also has a centre sprite issue where it appears to offset right.

Fixed sprite offsets.

Tbh the weapon sprites need an overhaul in general, they are full of odd miscolored pixels. Maybe I'll do it sometime later if I have nothing else to do.

I agree, it's quite an old one. The firing sounds need a limit also as it tends to skip with sustained fire.

Just my opinion, but I reckon it would look better with a chrome/silver finish instead of the Egyptian gold look it has going on, that'd be a neat touch.

Yeah thats a good idea. I'll see what I can do, as far as I'm aware this is the only Doom-style freeze weapon in the repository (unless I missed one that doesn't have an unambiguous name, and the CryoBow seems more like a Strife weapon) so I think the Freeze Rifle deserves an upgrade.

Also, since you mentioned the Weapons Resource Wad in the shoutbox, I'm gonna take a look at those weapons as well and see which ones I like and wanna see modernized.

Any progress on this?
The Freeze Rifle has a second firing sprite that goes unused since the original Plasma Gun behavior randomly chooses 2 sprites while firing, but this doesn't.

Sorry, no progress. In fact I don't do any Doom modding at all at the moment as I'm currently occupied with modding Arma 2 (not quite as old as Doom but still kinda "retro" ).
I don't see me working on this weapon anytime soon and it won't be of the highest priority when I get back into Doom modding, so you can close this thread if you want.

Let's not scrap what little improvement this had.
