You know, I've recently discovered that Sikkmod allows you to wear a helmet. And, as far as I can tell, it works properly. You'll get it only when you'll receive your armor at the Underground Security. The only downside is that the helmet has a little bit of a lighter tone than your armor. In that regard the alpha helmet would be better, as it has a matching green tone. P.S. Apparently, the helmet doesn't show up in cutscenes. Bummer.

I know. But if I'm creating a separate pk4 file containing necessary changes the game doesn't recognize it. I don't understand what am I doing wrong.

spamclark15, I just figured out how to change sounds myself, now I'm going to use lots of sounds from the Alpha version. But how do I create a separate pk4 file as a mod? Right now I'm replacing the files directly in pak003.pk4, which contains the sounds from Doom 3. But I want to make a mod for the sake of convenience.

Wow, you do not cease to amaze me!

It would be very kind of you to make a pk4 containing the changes you're playing with. Bringing back the helmet is another great idea besides the alpha shotgun, I would love to see its implementation too. Unfortunately, I lack the skills to contribute other than wholeheartedly saying "great work, guys, keep it going, I'm rootin' for ya!".

Arl, I admire your magical work so much you can't possibly believe it. Basically, you (and GodofGaming) made my longtime wish a reality. I'm beyond thankful for that. I know it's just a game and all that, but Doom 3 is my FAVORITE game of all time. And the alpha shotgun is simply BADASS, that's how it stuck in my head since I've played the leaked Doom 3 E3 Alpha. spamclark15, in one of your earlier posts you stated "I have it further customized to sound and behave like the alpha shotgun, tightening the spread and changing the number of max shells in the gun to 5 and having them load individually". I believe you did a great job on making it even closer to the alpha version, but then you decided to ditch these changes. Any chance of getting them back? Or you could tell me how to do it myself.

Great that you've created a page on Mod DB. I still highly suggest uploading the file, even if it's an early work. It's already awesome as it is!

spamclark15, why won't you upload this file to Mod DB and name it after this thread (Alpha Shotgun Mod)? It's great, and I think others should be able to locate it easily.
