CODE!!!!! O_O Must read.....

What's that mean? I already posted it. It's the last post on the 6th page.

[lizardcommando]

Here's a small update:

I went around asking for help with the reloading code and some people have answered the call. I want to thank everyone, especially Theshooter7, over at the ZDoom forums for rewriting the code and fixing things up. I finally have the .45 Pistol fixed, now all I need is the Magnum's coding to be fixed up and hopefully, I can get back to fixing up graphics and whatnot. I've already decided that the shotgun is going to be able to reload, but I don't know if I should do the same for the SMG's and Dual SMG's. Maybe I should release a private beta version first before I do so...

[lizardcommando]

Here's another quick update:

I got around to finishing the player sprites and here are some screenshots of the new sprites in action.



I just spawned in some random friendly Marines.

I'll eventually replace the crouch frames. Once that's done and once I eventually get the magnum reload code from TheShooter7, I am going to have to get working on the Assault Rifle and also make the Weapon 7 replacement. After that, I will hopefully let a few of you guys test the alpha version.

[Marty Kirra]

That skin is looking awesome LC. Are you going to record new sounds for it?

[lizardcommando]

Yeah, I might do that later. I'll probably end up using the TFC voices though that were used in my other mods for Lizardcommando and the Exterminators.

Alright, aside from the basic player sprites being complete (that is, I only have the crouching sprites to work on), I'm having coding troubles once again. The reload code for the magnum isn't here yet and I'm beginning to have my doubts on whether or not I'll get them anytime soon... Now I tried to do my own work with reloading for the shotgun, but it's a big ass mess. Essentially, I want to so that I want to be able to interrupt the reloading sequence for the shotgun. I know I've seen some of the mods here do it and I know I've seen that 100GunsX mod do that with thier shotguns. So what am I doing wrong here?

Stick an A_WeaponReady in there a few times. That'll allow ZDoom to check for the fire button and jump it straight to the Fire state if it's pressed.

Well, it's still a big fricken mess. The reloading for the shotgun doesn't really work at all. In fact, I can't even get it to reload at all. It's really fucked up. If I have full ammo, I can hit the reload button, but it won't actually reload the gun. It's just one big ass mess of coding...

Oh well, let's try fixing the magnum instead. I know there's one small error somewhere that's preventing it to work properly. I've already waited for theshooter7 to get back to me with the coding, but i haven't really heard from him since Saturday. That's why I'm trying to work on this stuff.

Anyways, here's the Magnum coding.

To be honest, I can't see anything wrong with it. But that's at a glance. It'd be best if you release an internal beta for people like WW and TDA to test, since it's easier to fix the problem that way.

[Chronoteeth]

Or, do like what weasel is doing with WW-diaz, and let a broader audience to help you.

[lizardcommando]

Alright. I think it is the right time. I'm about 50% done with the guns. All I need to do is add the 9MM pistol, the Weapon 7 replacements, the assault rifle, and maybe a Molotov cocktail...

Attention DECORATE experts: If you can help me with the coding, please respond to the thread and I will email you the wad.

[BlazingPhoenix]

Wow! o_o, those skins look amazing.

[lizardcommando]

Hmm, I'm not so sure that theshooter7 is going to be available to do any of the coding for now, so I guess I'll have to get going with development without him. So if anyone else is willing to help me with the coding, please respond.

Anyways, I know I said it wouldn't return, but I lied!

The molotov cocktails are making a return! The graphics are done and the basic coding is finished. All I have to do is get some new explosion graphics and fire graphics and hopefully code in the fire deaths for some of the enemies.

[lizardcommando]

I'm slowly working with the molotov cocktail coding. The only thing I need to do is add the burndeath states for the enemies. Ok, so if I wanted to give the burndeath states to the Zombieman, Shotgunguy, Chaingunguy, Imp, and the WolfensteinSS, how exactly would I do that? Do I have to copy all of the information of their spawn id or something from the ZDoom wiki and paste into a new DECORATE file thingy?

Another question I have is how do I make it so that when the molotov cocktail explodes, it'll spawn some flames afterward? Also, how do I set how long the fire stays until it disappears?

[lizardcommando]

Ok, so I'm working on the Molotov Cocktail and I'm still having trouble with it. I copied some of the coding from the Molotov Cocktail used in the WRW, but it still won't spawn any fire. What the hell am I doing wrong here?
