After a long I have decided to make something usefull for Vavoom.. Doom. I won't promice a lot, i have not too much time but i tried a few hires effects for Vavoom. Look at it: [img:3q5hgrwp]http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/1929/shot0000wh0.th.jpg[/img:3q5hgrwp] [img:3q5hgrwp]http://img399.imageshack.us/img399/9348/shot0001ph9.th.jpg[/img:3q5hgrwp] [img:3q5hgrwp]http://img353.imageshack.us/img353/8930/shot0002qf1.th.jpg[/img:3q5hgrwp] They are impish fireball, plasmaballs. Now i'm working on torch model and effects <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> The partial release will be at least when i replace all the basicdoom fireballs, i think.

Looks nice, but what VDRP means? <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> Vavoom Doom R? Project?

Vavoom Doom Resource Pack <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) --> A small answer to jDRP (jDoom Resource Pack) <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> But I don't really think this will be so large.

As promised: new doom torch model and effects <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> [img:xp6c5cq3]http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/7753/shot0003gz6.th.jpg[/img:xp6c5cq3] [img:xp6c5cq3]http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/1296/shot0004ye5.th.jpg[/img:xp6c5cq3] Now gonna create the same effects for green and blue torches! BTW Janis, why are close to each other sprites give the bugs? (screen 1)

Those look good <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Here are both blue and green torchsticks: [img:1eh4qcvi]http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/8210/shot0004xi2.th.jpg[/img:1eh4qcvi] [img:1eh4qcvi]http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/8210/shot0005tc5.th.jpg[/img:1eh4qcvi] and barrels: [img:1eh4qcvi]http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/6485/shot0003xn0.th.jpg[/img:1eh4qcvi] [img:1eh4qcvi]http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/5229/shot0006bm2.th.jpg[/img:1eh4qcvi] [img:1eh4qcvi]http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/1562/shot0007gi6.th.jpg[/img:1eh4qcvi] I have an idea to make green steems from explosive barrels while they stay "alife". What do you think about that? And more: are the models enough doom-like?

I think so, those models look really good

Good job, I really like the sewage barrels. The torch could be made a litter darker, as it looks a lot like the jDoom version.

[quote="Xylon":2qq3p00j]The torch could be made a litter darker, as it looks a lot like the jDoom version. What do you have in mind? Fire effect ot the torch stick?

Just make the general texture darker, the fire effect is fine. Possibly put a blood splat on the base and it would look awesome.

No, i would not add any blood on it, my target is to make sprite-like models, and cool, more then doom effects. BTW, here are some updates. At first - explosion effect: [img:18b21mnk]http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/1420/shot0008do9.th.jpg[/img:18b21mnk] And more: update to torch lighting parameters and imp fireball trail and lightingh..

Nice work! Where is the download?! <!-- s:wink: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=":wink:" title="Wink" /><!-- s:wink: -->

Well, i plan to release the pack after some more effects be added

Any progress?

Yes, it is. I had not any connect for some time, so i could not show it to you earlier. But i spent this time creating new models and effects for VDRP. I've experimented with some different styles of fire and would like to hear your thinks about it. Please, ansver, which red_fire effect is more doom-like and better at all: Version 1 [img:11guolfz]http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/6745/shot0009fe3.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] Version 2 [img:11guolfz]http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/3222/shot0013yi3.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] Version 3 [img:11guolfz]http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/1638/shot0014fw3.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] Also i've done a new effect of green and blue fire: [img:11guolfz]http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/9946/shot0010fg9.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] [img:11guolfz]http://img355.imageshack.us/img355/2641/shot0000bf4.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] Are they better then previous? Previous: [img:11guolfz]http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/8210/shot0004xi2.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] [img:11guolfz]http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/8210/shot0005tc5.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] And here are some screens of baron ball effect: [img:11guolfz]http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/418/shot0011kq7.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] [img:11guolfz]http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/691/shot0012bl6.th.jpg[/img:11guolfz] Some of models are to come soon too <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> Please, what do you think about fire effects, and choose which of them will be in VDRP.

I dig the new(er) torch effect. The Baron ball is nice too <!-- s:mrgreen: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":mrgreen:" title="Mr. Green" /><!-- s:mrgreen: --> Is it close to release? EDIT: There is also a couple issues now that models are interpolated. When you shoot the shotgun the shell that's ejected goes back into the shotgun, and could you make the chaingun spin faster. I mean you made teh models right <!-- s:? --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt=":?" title="Confused" /><!-- s:? -->

i think ill release it just after adding a new model of hud shotgun. yes yes, i'near finishing it! and the shells will be ejected as objects now! yes, current weapons are my work, but it was more then year (or two maybe) ago. so i will rebuild em all <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

You mean you are doing models to the HUD elements? That sounds nice too. In the other hand, when you finish and release the project, you can put it in this thread, so we all have all Vavoom resources together, for an easy acess: [url:3fd4adri]http://vavoom-engine.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1255

Nice work on the shotgun model! <!-- s:slayer: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/slayer.gif" alt=":slayer:" title="Slayer" /><!-- s:slayer: --> I also like the new torches, they look cool! I've got some small suggestions thought, why is it that the puffs of guns only have smoke? It would be better that the original puff effect (with quake styles particles) would show up and also the smoke <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->, same goes for the barrel explosion, it would look better IMO. Also, why not combining both the models for the imp and baron fireballs with the effect you implemented? It's looking good so far, keep up the good work Alex <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->.

ill think about imp and baron effects.. and as for puffs - i dont like untextured particles.. they are too primitive. but ill make puffs with yellow sparks for pistol and chaingun <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> and for sg and ssg it looks better when only smoke is spawned. BTW, have you got any ideas for blood puffs? have i to make em original-like or something more realistic?

Nice work. <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> I have some ideas. You can try effects for the monsters themselves, not only for the fireballs. For example, you can make a more realistic Lost Soul fire hair and trail. You can also try to enhance the Baron of Hell by adding him a kind of "hellish" aura, something like a clear red and quite transparent fire surrounding his body. A Revenant with eyes always glowing, and even in the dark, so if we set a revenant in a dark room, we still see his eyes. You can also try to implement a more realistic fire effect for the Archvile attack, and you can give the archive a cool effect, by adding some small flames to the shoulders and a kind of eyes looking like flames.

[quote="Alex-bomber_Man":27uxzo77]more realistic Lost Soul fire hair and trail I;m olanning that [quote="Alex-bomber_Man":27uxzo77]You can also try to enhance the Baron of Hell by adding him a kind of "hellish" aura, something like a clear red and quite transparent fire surrounding his body. wont do at all - i only make doom sprite replacements, not more <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) --> [quote="Alex-bomber_Man":27uxzo77]A Revenant with eyes always glowing, and even in the dark, so if we set a revenant in a dark room, we still see his eyes nice idea and not only for revenant, but i need a skin brightmap technology for that, not supported in vavoom yet. the other way is to make the eyes somethink like modelpart with fullbright flag if its allready supported. [quote="Alex-bomber_Man":27uxzo77]You can also try to implement a more realistic fire effect for the Archvile attack that is planed, and the other sprite replacing effects too, but i have nt a lot of time for that. now im working on chaingun models, item and HUD <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

[quote="Firebrand":3h4sqew2]It's already supported in the latest SVN version Thats nice, so ill umplement it after next release. And here you are some new screens: [img:3h4sqew2]http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/3861/shot0019bz8.th.jpg[/img:3h4sqew2] The blood effect.. i decided to make it original-style, but to change blood gravity a little 0=) [img:3h4sqew2]http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/285/shot0020oy5.th.jpg[/img:3h4sqew2] [img:3h4sqew2]http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/5329/shot0021oh4.th.jpg[/img:3h4sqew2] The chaingun item model.

They look cool! But the weapon is too big IMO, or it's offset is too big on the forward of the player's camera, the same thing applies for the shotgun.

Its impossible to change that without loosing realistic proportions of weapons. The sprites ARE NOT realistic, so models are a bit different from them =)

You could offset the weapon like in Quake 2 if your looking for a realistic look...

no, i dont want that. i just want to bring more detailed graphics to doom.

Here, ive made all i promised. this pack contains pistol, both shotguns and chaingun models, and some more effects <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> enjoy <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://rapidshare.de/files/46914352/vDRP.pk3.html">http://rapidshare.de/files/46914352/vDRP.pk3.html</a><!-- m -->
