I found this really neat mod for doom on the net last night... Called Samsara : Extra Heroes, it allows you to play as 16 different characters from various different FPS games... The games list is quite good and on top of that, the enemies from the games get placed in the maps if you use a bonus addon included with it called EXmixer.... This mod makes this thing amazing... All it needs is texture packs to play levels with enemies, weapons and the look of a specific game...
That's where I came in and made texture packs for duke3d/shadow warrior/blood, blake stone, heretic/hexen, and wolf3d for the mod... You can download the texture packs and the batch files to run each one here...
New enemies show up in many of these games, as well as new weapons.. Duke gets a 2 new enemies, shadow warrior gets 6-7 new ones, wolf3d gets 7 new ones, many of the others get new ones but I could not test a few due to my issues with opengl causing the game to lock up my system with a looping sound if I try to run in opengl... In some of these cases models are used for enemies and weapons, so they can't be tested by me.... That includes quake 1 and 2, and half life...
the textures for the games are from the following authors:
wolf3d : dbthanotos/areyep
duke3d/shadow warrior/blood : pixelWAD
heretic/hexen : dbthanotos/raven
blake stone : dark textures pack makers
To play with a new level that is randomly generated make sure to download OBSIDIAN here and use it to generate new maps for doom with the required theme.... Duke3d/shadow warrior/blood use urban, the rest use tech... Make the wad, put it in your doom 2 folder, and go to a dos prompt and type the following:
cd C:\doom2
Then type the batch file to play the level followed by a space and your wad without the extension
so to play the duke3d mode type
loadssd3d.bat random
to play random.wad in it...
Other batch files include:
loadssw3d.bat (wolf3d)
loadssbld.bat (blood)
loadsssw.bat (shadow warrior)
loadssbs.bat (blake stone)
loadsshtic.bat (heretic/hexen)
loadssrott.bat (ROTT)
loadssd64.bat (Doom 64)
loadsshl.bat (half-life : requires opengl)
loadssqk2.bat (quake 2 - rrequires opengl)
loadssqk.bat (quake 1 - requires opengl or software with poly renderer)
loadsstech.bat (marathon/strife/corridor 7)
Screenshots:
Edit : New version made with improved shadow warrior and blood textures that require a tech map to use right... So don't use urban with them anymore...
