RAY MOHAWK 2: Ray Wreaks Havoc! [20 Vanilla Maps - v4 on idgames!]

[MtPain27]

Small typo in paragraph two ("a nukage-powred craft") of first text screen, but the first paragraph made me laugh out loud: "his 'new normal' is constant killing." Hilarious.

Damn, I knew at least one typo would show up! I'm glad you're getting a laugh out of the completely OTT "storyline" though :)

[Doomkid]

Thanks a ton, NJ. I absolutely would have missed that..!

So proud of y'all and the end result!

You did a great job at managing this project DK!

[MtPain27]

Whoops, there's me getting likes for being helpfully unhelpful. Thanks @Not Jabba!

[BetelgeuseSupergiant]

Pretty cool!

[Master O]

I just realized the Zombiemen in this mod look like Duke Nukem.  Hahaha, Doomkid.

This mod was heavily inspired by Duke in more ways than one :)

[SilverMiner]

It's Audioslave - Your time has come iirc

[Doomkid]

[Not Jabba]

This is minor and probably not worth bothering with unless there are also real bugs, but while I'm using my experience as a copyeditor on your story texts, the last one should use the word "populace" (noun, a population of people) rather than "populous" (adjective, having many people).

[Doomkid]

It's embarassing that I only know English, and apparently I don't even know that. (Thanks very much once again, NJ. If any other bugs show up at all, and maybe even if not, I'll fix that!)

Take it from an editor of the English language -- nobody knows English, lol.

 

It's not so much a language one can know as a strange dream one can try to make the most of.

[Doomkid]

I couldn't accept it being wrong - all ZIP contents are now updated (link is the same). The demo was desynced anyway, so that's fixed as well!

[BigBoy91]

Fuck yeah. This is hype!

[Senor Cacodemon]

Just came here to say that the people who worked on the music did an amazing job, its candy for my ears.

Awesome! I wanted to know about the tracks used, thanks. :D

Hopefully this will be the last version, but you know how sneaky bugs can be!

 

I hope so too! I know that a few people are doing playthroughs at the moment and are not finished yet. So there might still be some feedback coming, especially for the latter part of the wad and the bonus maps.

The rocket launcher is replaced with a flamethrower! Those of you familiar with the Rowdy Rudy wads have probably been wanting to use that sweet flamethrower after being on the receiving end, and now you can! To put this beast's power into perspective, each flame does 3 times as much damage as a standard plasma ball. The only minor drawback is that it has a somewhat limited range of about 900 pixels.

 

The plasma rifle is replaced with the cell cannon. It fires explosive plasma balls very rapidly that are this mod's equivalent of rockets, but since it uses cell ammo, your maximum ammo is much higher, meaning you can blow away a whole lot more baddies.

In the game, these are swapped: slot 5 (rocket launcher thing 2003) is cell cannon and slot 6 (plasma gun thing 2004) is flamethrower. This should also be corrected in the mohawk2.txt file.

[Soulless]

Currently on Map12, everything have been pretty sweet until now,

just a little HOM on map 11 (screenshot below).

[Vile]

Just finished this and had a blast.  The weapons are insane but I'm glad the levels ramp up the challenge to accommodate them.  Really good stuff, thanks for making this!

[Aurelius]

While watching Vile's stream, I noticed the CWILV for MAP17 had a small typo where it said "Poster By" instead of "Poster Boy".

[maxmanium]

I noticed that running out of ammo with the flamethrower doesn't switch to another weapon, it just keeps lowering and raising again. I believe this is because it's still checking for ammo in the fourth ammo pool despite using ammo from the third. This shouldn't be hard to fix if you wanted to but not a big deal.

 

Also, tutti-frutti on MAP13:

[Noiser]

Hey people, I just noticed this ugly glitch on Hardware render (on my map):



I was able to fix that and also "a cheese" on the blursphere area that should not happen at all haha

I'm not sure if there will be another update, but here's the fixed map in case anyone want it: map16fix.rar

Edited November 5, 2021 by Noiser

[maxmanium]

Making another post because MAP15 just crashed from VPO in Choco. It's in a big central area where a lot of pain elementals are released. Don't have a screenshot handy for obvious reasons. Seems to be fairly consistent in at least one corner of the area.

 

EDIT: Here's a screenshot looking at the area where it happens if you stand facing the opposite direction. I think it's because of the far visplanes in the area before you jump off the ledge. Might be a good idea to make that ledge higher to prevent the VPO, or something.

 

Spoiler

Happens if you're standing over where I'm looking, facing where I'm standing now.

 

 

EDIT 2: There's another VPO that happens in the area with the switch in this same location. I think it's still because of the staircase you jump off of to get to this open space -- so really the same problem.

Are the missing Kills/Items/Secrets graphics intentional? Playing on Woof! 7.0.0.

Good catch, thank you Xymph.

Hmm, I didn’t fix the flamethrower behaviour because I simply couldn’t work out how.. (also those crates will be fixed)

This map has VPOs from head to toe before I started editing it down.. So annoying that I still missed some after all that, but thank you very much for finding these - I’ll get them fixed up.

 

(One day, I’ll start a vanilla project and all the submissions will actually be vanilla compatible.. One day!)

Good catch. This is a leftover from Ray 1 that I didn’t really think about. Definitely gonna get that fixed.

 

Thank you all so much for these reports.. Gonna have them all addressed with a 1.2 fix version soon. (Why did I type “final” in the thread - I was basically jinxing it from the start!)
