Providing the alternate 'give weapons' equivalent is a welcome addition even without adding +CHEATNOTWEAPON to everything. Just keep that and ditch the flag and all will be well.

Also, the Groovy Doom Guns review might just be the most nitpicky thing I've seen all year. :P

Ok, let's say I agree with you. But did you ever experience something similar? And if so, did you try to solve the issue in any way?

Yes, I have, and no, I saw no need to because if you're cheating you're bound to encounter glitches anyway.
If I may ask, what would you suggest in this case to avoid "disabling" the standard cheats?

I would just ignore any issues that crop up from using the cheats.

To activate script 8 you gotta press the cyberdemon statue, shoot the barrels that spawn, then press the eye switch


That's what I did, but the lost souls always got stuck on a corner.

If it really bugs you, make a weapon with top priority for each slot, all identical. They have a single HUD sprite that says something along "please don't use idfa but the rsl console command instead for this mod, thanks. (btw there is a readme that was meant to be read, it would have told you that.)"

This is actually a nice idea; I'll consider it next time...

I never saw it from this point of view, but it absolutely makes sense. I second that.

Another nice idea - probably the most appropriate for the multi-class mod.

Thanks everybody for the suggestions.

Hmm, weird. I never had problems with it while testing and recording demos. What version of ZDoom were you using? If you were using 241, wanna record a demo of that part?

when you consumed all ammo for a certain custom weapon and thus caused a weapon switch, the default weapons would show up


It's your fault. Autowtich order is controlled by Weapon.SelectionOrder. Check the values of this property in default Doom guns and then make sure your new guns have LOWER values of this property. In this case default weapons will never showup during autoswitch, no matter whether they are present or not.

Apparently some lame attempt at trolling. Needless to say these files were not uploaded by the original authors. The entries should be removed from /idgames.

EDIT: Here is another one.


That Star Wars mod looks cute. Time for a Lego Doom franchise?

Thanks for the heads up; I emailed Ty about them.

They've all but disappeared from the supported mirrors, as for removing their database entries (which I think is what neg!ke is suggesting) that's probably best discussed with one of the admins.
