The Sprites are DeSynced The Fires behave Incorrectly And the Weapon Pickup doesn't use Scale to make it Smaller. This would get a no from me if i were deciding unless the sprites were improved and the Errors are fixed.

I don't understand what you mean by desynced sprites and I can't find any error with the fires.

Looks like it's using the same palette as the rifle, in fact. Also, frames A and B are identical, down to the byte count; you don't need both. The Arch-Vile flame really doesn't work as a projectile...if you're trying to re-use existing Doom II assets, maybe you can use a translation or recolor of the Baron or Mancubus fireball. Functionality-wise, it's OK. I don't have any real suggestions for balance off-hand. It's a lot weaker (on average) than a rocket, but it has the benefit of the ripper effect.

I'm not sure why it makes an explosion sound effect either as it doesn't look like anything's exploding. My other major complaint is regarding the sprites. It seems more evident here that actual photos were used as a base for them (at least, that's what it looks like to me) and as a result doesn't match Doom's style. Behavior-wise, it could work as a weapon, but I feel this will need an overhaul on the sprites Please [Log in](https://www.realm667.com/component/users/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cucmVhbG02NjcuY29tL2ZvcnVtL2Nsb3NlZC1zdWJtaXNzaW9ucy85MDMtc3VibWlzc2lvbi1oZWF0LXJheQ==&Itemid=2662) or [Create an account](https://www.realm667.com/component/users/registration?Itemid=2662) to join the conversation. - **Quantum\_Dranger** - ![Quantum_Dranger's Avatar](https://www.realm667.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg) Topic Author - Chaingunner - ![Chaingunner](https://www.realm667.com/media/kunena/ranks/rank_6_chaingunner.png) Less More- Posts: 54 - - 9 years 5 months ago [\#5586](#5586) by Quantum\_Dranger Replied by *Quantum\_Dranger* on topic *[\[SUBMISSION\] Heat Ray](https://www.realm667.com/forum/closed-submissions/903-submission-heat-ray#5586 "Information: Name: Heat Ray Class: 5 Type: Ripper Palette: Custom Summon: HeatRay Ammo Type: Rocket Altfire: No Powered Mode: No Added States: No Credits: Submitted: Quantum_Dranger Decorate: Quantum_Dranger GLDefs: None Sounds: Id Software Sprites: Quantum_Dranger, Id Software Sprite Edit: None Idea Base: Quantum_Dranger ACS: None Description: A handheld flamethrower that uses rocket fuel to spew a burning ripper that tears through weaker enemies but it ineffective in taking down larger foes.

I did use real images so perhaps they would work better in the other style section as I'm not sure how to make a completely doom styled weapon (hands, fire effects, etc.).
