Here's the example of simple asset tweeking and it's great to see how game is becoming much more satisfying, I'd say significantly more))

The point is not to make game insanely difficult, NO, the point is to make player's chioce highly motivated, even forced....no more rambo style with fists and meely, no more overpowered ammunition and so on.

Looks great dav, some nice subtle tweaks to the weapons and damage system that make the whole game a lot more intense. Was the player speed kicked up a couple of notches there too? It looked a little faster.

It's also economy rebalance, just to make sure that player have to scavenge everything to survive....not just going to vendor and buying 300 fatboys or something like that))
No changes to player speed...just some strafe jumping and jump height added)
Unfortunately it requires a lot of testing, otherwise one can easely ruin the fun and even the game)))

official mod?

Sure) If it turns out well, I'll release it)

That looks interesting. Can you go more into specifics of what you are toying with changing? I like that you are working on improving strafe jumping. It looks like you tightened the accuracy on the pistol, which is cool.

Quick question: As someone who doesn't know anything about programming... How hard would it be for me to use the editor to make all the guns super accurate from the hip, and raise all of the enemy health to compensate. Is it easy to go in there and just edit those values?

Absolutely! There's tutorial in idstudio explaining how to work with assets and building asset mod, however ai tweeking now does nothing and should be fixed in update.

To much to list....weapon damage and economy balance are the main features here. Also some retexturing like adding red cross on bandages, but still don't know how to add correctly to the game((
Strafe jumping increased due to pm_jumpheight 70
Added clip sizes for shotgun (12) and fatboys(8) for more fun))

I think the sparks and blood are a tad bit overdone, but I very much like what I see. Great particle work there

» Tue May 07, 2013 1:27 am

Agreed! However during gameplay you don't pay much attention, but it defenatily adds visual fun))) And everybody likes more blood

Just repeat sorry.

Nice work! I see you post downloadable files at moddb and gamefront, but at both portals I can't download it (I don't know what is the reason - region/country), at moddb it calls "its not awailable via any mirrors" and at gamefront - "file missing". I speed checked in google after this mod but I can't find nothing except these both portals. Is some other way to get it?

I have it downloading. I will PM you with an address.
