Description
This is a Weapon Mod for ZDoom 2.0 96x with extra weapon
support. Only this version of ZDoom should run this wad.
I worked a lot on this wad, trying to make it the best
mod I did for ZDoom. There are a lot of interesting weapons with
special effects, a lot of cool inventory items and a very good
sound design. However, I'm not a good graphic designer, so don't
expect completely redesigned weapons. All I did is to keep using
the always pretty graphics from the professional weapon modders.
Apart from it, that's a great mod, with the best of my work.
This mod brings a new cool gameplay to the Doom. Play it
with your favorite Map Mod and you'll have a lot of fun. You can
also play very hard maps with this weapon mod, the gameplay will
be very acessible. Note that the weaker enemies have alternative
versions, with new weapons and different attacks.
Now, there is a list of the weaponry from this file, and
also the items available here. The original ones from Doom won't
be listed.

By Walter confetti · PostedA really frantic and fun DM map with pretty neat stuff like invisible pillar in the middle of the arena, doesn't have anything to do with the title but the level can become a BFG spamming fest soon, especially with bots. Less fun in SP but the arch-ville+bunch of nazi combo is a nice feat.
By Fireseth · PostedOnly six enemies (played on UV) and no working exit. Other than that, it is a pretty detailed map for 1995. I enjoyed the general design and the poisonous vats of acid. Very cool, but not practical for good gameplay. EDIT: Just discovered this is a ideally a DM wad… haha, for that purpose, it seems good. My original rating was 2/5, will change it now.
By CravenCoyote · PostedLots of traps and monster closets. Some switches are activated by shooting but there's nothing to really tell you about this because they look the same as other switches. Texturing is good and enemy placement proved rather difficult at times. There aren't may health pickups on UV so it was a fight to get through.
By costadevale · PostedIt's pretty good for 1994. If you don't mind having no health items at all (except in a few maps) and the outrageous amounts of cyberdemons per map, you should give it a try. It's pretty challenging and I like it. E2M3 is a bit 'eh...' though.
By entropy122 · PostedWhat the actual f*ck is this map. I love having 4 rockets, a shit ton of bullets and like 10 shotgun shells to take out a revenant, and whatever was in that cage. Doesn't look too bad, maybe this negativity is cus im no expert, also rather unskilled at the game?
