Vilecore Re-Uploaded

[Doom_Dude]

I fixed that bug you found Deathgiver and re-uploaded Vilecore with the bug fix. Fixed the txt file while I was at it too. Also ran Vilecore through ZenNode (was originally built with Doomcad's garbage nodesbuilder). Also added new screenshot to my Projects page for both Vilecore and Vilecore 2.0

Deathgiver can you test out that fixed map? http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/smile.gif

D_Dude, I just emailed the "Vilecore jDoom test report" to ya.

[Doom_Dude]

I just answered your email. I dunno what's going on. All the trigger things gave been removed so it should be working for you.

[Deathgiver]

What the Freak!? It's working right, now.

When I tested earlier I used a saved game file from when I used Vilcore.wad, I got curious & loaded straight in "Battle hex" & it's working right.

So could've the Save game kept a trigger "ghost"?

[Doom_Dude]

I noticed DooM save games remember all sorts of weird stuff so yeah it must've. Anyhow I'm glad you got it working.

Oh by the way. I fixed map32 where you had to jump up in the alcoves to get the red key. Those are now lifts and the door is shootable from both sides now. Figured I might as well fix that hindrance as well. I just uploaded it if you want it. http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/wink.gif

I'm seeing that 'Hex' reference a lot lately. http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/tongue.gif

That should be all the fixes for the olde version. Those 2 bugs were a hinderance to the players progress and needed fixing..... plus it was about time I ZenNoded the dang thing. Oh and I took the liberty of deleting all those silly sector based map names. Any other fixes will be in 2.0.

Have fun! http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/wink.gif

"Oh and I took the liberty of deleting all those silly sector based map names."

Is that why the latest version is a little smaller?

[Doom_Dude]

Theres 3 reasons why it's smaller.

[list=1] Deleted Sector Names Ran ZenNode on the wad Then used XWE to clean the wad.

I noticed that switches are still too high. I guess this is a problem of Jdoom. Does anyone know if this will be fixed?

[Doom_Dude]

If your talking about the shootable switches. In 2.0... The one in map10 I lowered. The one in map29 I changed so you can see it better plus I lowered it. Theres one at the start of map30 that I fixed as well. I didn't realise they were too high when I first made Vile and everything was tested in Legacy. Are these the switches your talking about? Lemme know so I can fix them.

The switches really should be shootable with either the double barrel or the chaingun. Sometimes the far ones get missed because the ammo sprays differently and you have to try a few times.

Did you fix that bug I found early on where the pillar comes up and sometimes the player gets trapped outside? I know you fixed it for the new version but it was pretty bad when that happened to me the first time through the map. It was where you jump across a gap into a room with demons and a pillar comes up behind. If you leave right away you can get out before the pillar rises and you get stuck outside.

[Doom_Dude]

Yeah Thats in map05: Hellknight's Temple. I fixed that for the new version ages ago. The door / bar that lowers I removed and I shortened the gap between the rooms where you jump across. I also removed the lift just before that part and added a stairway. Looks way cooler and you can now run away if you like . lol

I'll change that for the olde version if I think I really have to. Well my plan was to replace the olde version with the new but I suppose some will still want to check out the older version considering how different they'll be with all the changes and fixes and additional stuff I added to 2.0

Yeah, even if you just put a trigger so the bar can lower again if you're outside or something.
