Now that I looked at each weapon and tried them out a bit I wanna share my thoughts. Many sprites look kinda ugly and aren't worth considering. Most of the sprites that look good are rips from games like DN3D and Shadow Warrior. Nothing too exciting there either. Some other weapons are already in the repository, like the Sniper Rifle that was recently updated with new centered sprites. I won't go into balancing, it's all over the place and needs to be looked at individually if someone decides to update a weapon. These are the weapons that stood out to me: * Railgun (by Daniel) Just a plain old railgun, but the sprite looks good and afaik hasn't been used for anything in the armory. Could be repurposed for another type of weapon if yet another railgun seems too boring. * Seeker Missile Launcher (by NekroMage) I think this weapon was ripped from Osiris.wad, like the sprite of the Freeze Rifle that is already in the Armory. In WRW it's what the name says, but the weapon's looks suggests something entirely different. Could be worth repurposing, maybe some kind of liquid sprayer. * Tazer (by HellsBane) Despite the name, it doesn't tase at all. It doesn't even lock the enemy in place like the chainsaw does. Also the sprite doesn't have Doomguy hands. But the rest isn't too shabby so might be worth turning into an actual taser. * Blaster Pistol (by Inuyasha_989) For some reason it has the same pickup sprite as the Plasma Bolter from the Armory. But the HUD sprites of both these weapons don't really look like the pickup sprite. Oh well. Anyway, it's a decent gun and might be worth updating if people want more energy based sidearms. Just needs Doomguy hands. * Multi-Projectile Weapon (by TheDarkArchon) Imo the best looking sprites in the whole pack. Not sure if they are an original work or ripped from another game. The way the weapon works is kinda neat too, and I quote the description: "The projectile this fires out depends on how long you hold down the fire button. The more lights on the weapon that turn red, the more powerful the blast and the more ammo used. One light fires a strong green plasma ball and uses 10 cells, two lights sends fires three slightly-stronger homing yellow plasma balls and uses 30 cells, and three lights fires a powerful red blast and a energy shotgun spread for 50 cells." The thing is, the 3rd projectile is basically a red BFG blast that kills everything in front of you, so there is no reason to use the other projectiles unless your only enemy is an imp or something. Also it simulates a blinding muzzle flash by coloring the whole screen yellow or red. Yikes! So yeah this weapon needs some fixing but I think it's worth updating, or better yet, repurposing the sprites to make a mini-nuke launcher, kinda like the Fatman from Fallout 3. At least that's what I would do. But before I do anything I wanna hear other people's thoughts, especially Captain Toenail's who brought this wad up in the first place. btw I think the version of WRW that I got is missing quite a few weapons from the final v2.2 release. I looked for a download link but the only one I could find is on DRD Team's site which doesn't work for me, the website throws a bunch of security risk errors. Doomworld only seems to host the older version that I got.")* I think almost all of the enemies from the monster resource wad made it onto the Bestiary in some form already. LilWhiteMouse's monsters stand out to me as being very unique and interesting, the Scorpion Mastermind Warning: Spoiler! [ ![Scorpion Mastermind](https://i.imgur.com/Q1bmFFo.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/Q1bmFFo.jpg "Scorpion Mastermind") Hellhound and Hell's Battery. The mastermind sprites would need touching up however. I remember being fascinated by the Hell's Battery - wish I'd used it in a project. Last edit: 2 years 7 months ago by CaptainToenail.

Got rid of the grenade projectile, but added some more frames to the big fireball which is now the main projectile. Added some rudimentary brightmaps and dynamic lights. Rewrote much of the code, now Altfire cycles through 3 different powerlevels. A higher powerlevel increases damage and AoE, but decreases fire rate. Todo: sounds, proper brightmaps and dynamic lights, balance for damage and ammo consumption, hopefully fix some overlay pixel shifts if that's even possible (watch the green lights while cycling through powerlevels to see what I mean)...

Just needs Doomguy hands. * Multi-Projectile Weapon (by TheDarkArchon) Imo the best looking sprites in the whole pack. Not sure if they are an original work or ripped from another game. The way the weapon works is kinda neat too, and I quote the description: "The projectile this fires out depends on how long you hold down the fire button. The more lights on the weapon that turn red, the more powerful the blast and the more ammo used. One light fires a strong green plasma ball and uses 10 cells, two lights sends fires three slightly-stronger homing yellow plasma balls and uses 30 cells, and three lights fires a powerful red blast and a energy shotgun spread for 50 cells." The thing is, the 3rd projectile is basically a red BFG blast that kills everything in front of you, so there is no reason to use the other projectiles unless your only enemy is an imp or something. Also it simulates a blinding muzzle flash by coloring the whole screen yellow or red. Yikes! So yeah this weapon needs some fixing but I think it's worth updating, or better yet, repurposing the sprites to make a mini-nuke launcher, kinda like the Fatman from Fallout 3. At least that's what I would do. But before I do anything I wanna hear other people's thoughts, especially Captain Toenail's who brought this wad up in the first place. btw I think the version of WRW that I got is missing quite a few weapons from the final v2.2 release. I looked for a download link but the only one I could find is on DRD Team's site which doesn't work for me, the website throws a bunch of security risk errors. Doomworld only seems to host the older version that I got.")* Some further progress on the Nuker: - weapon renamed from Nuker to ThermoNuker (to set it apart from the original Hacx Nuker) - ammo renamed from Molecules to Hydrogen - reworked ammo sprites - added ammo consumption - added sounds - added decals - improved dynamic lights Depending on the selected powerlevel, lights and decals will change size and explosion sounds will change pitch. Also higher powerlevels consume more ammo. Todo: - add better brightmaps to fire frames - add smoke emissions while firing (one of the fire frames suggests that the weapon emits smoke) - fix the overlay pixel shifts DL: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10ZVfIjbNY0o0aMt9UOgwcAjP9mjF0OlO/view?usp=sharing Please [Log in](https://www.realm667.com/component/users/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cucmVhbG02NjcuY29tL2ZvcnVtL3RoZS13b3Jrc2hvcC8xOTcwLXdlYXBvbnMtcmVzb3VyY2Utd2FkP3N0YXJ0PTIw&Itemid=2662) or [Create an account](https://www.realm667.com/component/users/registration?Itemid=2662) to join the conversation. - **Gothic** - ![Gothic's Avatar](https://www.realm667.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar320.png?1619787674) - Moderator - ![Moderator](https://www.realm667.com/media/kunena/ranks/rank_20_barrel.png) Less More- Posts: 1329 - - - 2 years 7 months ago - 2 years 7 months ago [\#11346](#11346) by Gothic Replied by *Gothic* on topic *[Weapons Resource Wad](https://www.realm667.com/forum/the-workshop/1970-weapons-resource-wad?start=20#11346 "Earlier today Captain Toenail brought up this old weapon pack and asked if it might be worth updating some of the weapons for the R667 armory.

Actually the first thing I did when I started working on the nuker was to make some simple recolors, but tbh the orange original still looks best in my eyes. Also there aren't too many weapons with an orange color scheme out there... but I'll consider another color once I'm done with my todo-list. - I changed the sprites of the dust clouds to something that looks more like air Speaking of which, do you know by any chance where the original dust clouds are from? I might use them as a base for the smoke emissions I talked about earlier. - If nobody else is working on it, I want to give the LameDuke Tazer a try. The Tazer was next on my list after the Nuker but since I currently don't have as much time as I used to have it'll still take a while until I'm done with that one, so please go ahead. I got plenty of other things waiting in queue, like the 2 weapons from Osiris.wad and a few monsters I've been working on and off for the past couple months.
