If that would work with a more "vanilla" source-port like Crispy, then this would have lots of merit. For Zandronum or GZDoom, this is a pretty niche thing right?
I think its a bit mixed. There are those who want to still experience vanilla gameplay but with more features and different graphics.
Does this only work with vanilla doom or could I run this with other weapon mods?
Will try to get a version without Smooth Doom changing weapons or monsters. For now you can just exclude the smooth doom pk3 file
Uploaded a version that removes edits to either monsters or weapons
How can i turn off Bonognese gib explosion or increase bd_mingibhealth higher than -100? And is there options like that to Nashgore? When i played Walpurgis(Heretic), quite often my enemies explode out of everything i throw in them and sometimes even get double explosion: first Nashgore and then Bolognese. Btw, despite this, your goremod is the best goremod that doom community have on that moment, imho.
I would have to make a version for those. This was mainly made for Doom but moddb uploads them to all related games.
bd_mingibhealth can be changed if you know how to edit in slade and compile the script that Bolognese uses named ACSGore.txt. Anything with
if (GetActorProperty(0, APROP_Health) <= -30)
and changing the -30 or -25 to whatever number you would need. Nash doesn't do this, it depends on if the actual monster itself gibs.
and thanks
Can this be used with mods or just vanilla?
It is meant for vanilla but if there are edits to the monsters or weapon skins then you can use the versions that are already included to disable those features
how can i make this work with brutal doom???
**** brutal doom. there's already gore in brutal doom already.
for some reason if i choose "no weapon changes" the blue blood and unique gibs such as the cacodemon gibs do not show up (everything is red), but if i switch to the base addon with both weapon and monster enhancements, the coloured gibs work?
I have fixed the issue and uploaded a new version for it, thanks for reporting
One problem so far: smooth enemy movement & attack animations are missing altogether.
This was answered in a DM but to those who want to know. They were intentionally removed to preserve proper enemy attack timing. At some point I will add them back as a optional install
Not a bad attempt honestly, but it lacks gibbing options from chainsaw and ssg.
Might be possible to add but there are conflicts with both Nash and Bolognese since they handle their gib status differently from Smooth Doom
Is it possible to disable bolognese blood pools?
Hey, I've been using this mod for a while now and I have to say it's easily the best gore mod currently available. That said, I've been having a handful of problems with it.
The first thing is that if I try to play the game using Wadsmoosh (https://jp.itch.io/wadsmoosh) on GZDoom 4.10.0 I get this error:
"LoadActors: Load actor definitions.
Script error, "dD-SmoothDoom-default.pk3:zscript/zperkhandler.zc" line 76:
Unknown class name 'ZPerkPistol' of type 'Inventory'
Script error, "dD-SmoothDoom-default.pk3:zscript/zperkhandler.zc" line 83:
Unknown class name 'ZPerkFist' of type 'Inventory'
Script error, "dD-SmoothDoom-default.pk3:zscript/zperkhandler.zc" line 109:
Unknown class name 'ZPerkFist' of type 'Actor'
Execution could not continue.
3 errors while parsing DECORATE scripts"
The second issue is that the tone of green/blue blood seems to be inconsistent. If you kill a cacodemon you will see a mixture of very light and also very dark blue blood on the walls/floors, and the same thing goes for the hell nobles with their green blood.
Third issue is that I wish there was an option to disable the blood pools on corpses. They have a tendency to float mid-air when you kill an enemy near the edge of terrain, and they also get stacked on top of each other when you kill multiple enemies close to each other, which causes very distracting z-fighting issues.
Finally, I'm pretty sad that the chainsaw and SSG gibbing got removed, since those were easily some of my favorite features from Smooth Doom. Were they removed for any particular technical reasons? Any chance you could add them back?
1) I am still not sure whats causing that error, but will continue to try to fix it
2) Might be because of Smooth Doom gibs reacting differently to blood recolors. I'll try to tweak the colors a bit if possible in another update
3) I will have to reduce the size back to what it was before. Bolognese doesn't have a toggle feature for that.
4) I did finish SSG gibbing a while ago but got too busy to finish the update. I am still solving for the chainsaw gib so its still not working. They were removed because it required a special weapon type that Smooth Doom uses but conflicted with all the other mods.
Jesus!
The only thing I'd suggest for this mod is perhaps removing the parts of Smooth Doom that affect items; They can conflict with gameplay mods a fair bit. Otherwise, everything works great.
Updates:
2.49
-Added Super Shotgun and chainsaw gibbing option back when killed in close range. This needs to be turned on in Smooth Doom mod options
