News: 10/27/17

XTerra1 and TBG have released updates for QuakeStyle ZX and QuakeStyle Unbound, respectively! You can check out the changelogs for both mods here and here. Grab 'em from the Doom Wads section.

News: 09/12/17

I've got a real treat for you all today! XTerra1 has not only updated QuakeStyle ZX, has also teamed up with That Blind Guy to create the third generation of the QuakeStyle lineage, QuakeStyle Unbound! Unbound adds many, many new weapons and enemies, a class based player system, weapon wheel, and a brand new HUD. If you enjoyed the past two generations of QuakeStyle, you DEFINITELY should check out QuakeStyle Unbound. You'll find both updates in the Doom Wads section.

Changelog for QuakeStyle ZX follows.

• *New weapon: the napalm launcher. Slot 7. Uses one rocket to shoot a big-ass fireball which explodes and drops flames. The fireball has an arc, and the launcher fires very slowly. Sprites edited from the UTnT PyroCannon by Eriance.
• *New weapon: the sniper rifle. Slot 5. The super shotgun to the rifle's shotgun, a powerful-but-slow, overpenetrating rifle that fires three rifle rounds with one shot. Basically, it's an older version of the DZ sniper stripped down....but the scope is broken and unusable. Hey, intact sniper scopes aren't easy to come by in a hellscape. Those things aren't always the most durable!
• *New weapon: the Gauss Cannon. Slot 9. The railgun's bigger brother, firing five slugs at a time with an explosive punch. Very powerful, but very slow to use. Bye bye, Arch-viles...
• *New weapon: the Disintegrator. Slot 8. Basically, this thing's a dark matter-powered shotgun that spews explosive white energy balls. The only weapon that's guaranteed to gib whatever it kills, true to its name. Don't use on Unmaker guys if you want their weapon.
• *Slug-firing weapons now shed casings, adapted from Project MSX. Same goes for enemies using slug-based weapons. Slug item and HUD sprites modded to match.
• +Knife: damage buff, but slight speed decrease
• +Silencer pistol: slight buff
• +Certain enemies have gotten a little beefing up-- maggots are slightly faster, vulgars scratch harder and arachnorbs are nastier in attack power and durability.
• +Laser pistol: increased fire rate
• /The Forgotten One now truly has its homing ram ability back after all this time-- I couldn't figure out how to get it working properly!
• /Multiple tweaks to supply barrel drops. They now properly drop health and armor bonuses, and now the laser pistol and haste sphere are added into the drop list. All possible small ammo types now have an equal chance of dropping now.
• /Some weapons' sprite alignments have been fixed.
• /Bugfixes to the plasma beam and laser weapons. An errant null value on those caused the particle trails not to spawn on GZDoom v2.4.x on up.
• /Railgun's got new sprites, the same as DoomZone's, by OSJClatchford.
• /All lasers and the plasma beam have fullbright trails, whereas the railgun and Gauss Cannon don't.
• //Railgunner and arachnotron mkII (the one with the railgun) now have dynamic light trails too.
• //Thunderbolt is now properly affected by DualFire damage, firing four damaging tracers per cycle for two ammo, as opposed to two-for-one for normal fire.
• /Arachnotron mkIIs and Cybarons have a chance of dropping slugs.
• /There are now over one hundred unique quit messages, including tips.
• /Yet more lighting fixes. I swear, I keep missing this shit...
• /The Cybaron no longer shoots rockets-- he now shoots Phalanx balls instead, complete with slug casings. He'll even drop slugs when you gank him.
• -The Wraith now has a slight delay in attacking after rematerializing, in order to bring him more in line with his D3 counterpart. To achieve this, his code was completely rewritten by my buddy TBG.
• --HAMR guy seriously nerfed. He was fucking murderous, and WAY too accurate with his gun. I fixed that little problem.
• -Blaster spread very slightly increased.
• -Revenant now can fire non-homing missiles as well as homers. They are told apart by homers beeping and having a thick smoke trail.
• /// The difficulties have been rebalanced. They are described in detail ingame. "I Am a Wimp" is gone, replaced by a new "hard with a twist" mode called "Serious Mode". Nightmare spawns, but HNTR rules.
• ///The HUD has been reworked to include color-coded ammo displays flanking the rest of the HUD. The color scheme mostly matches Quake's.
• The weapon slots are redefined as follows:
  • Slot 1: melee (fists/knife/axe/chainsaw)
  • Slot 2: handguns (pistol/silencer pistol/nail pistol/laser pistol/blaster)
  • Slot 3: light longarms (rifle/shotgun/auto shotgun)
  • Slot 4: light automatics (MG/AR/hyperblaster/nailgun)
  • Slot 5: heavy longarms (super nailgun/super shotgun/sniper rifle/quad shotgun)
  • Slot 6: heavy automatics (chaingun/HAMR/laser cannon/Perforator)
  • Slot 7: explosives (prox/napalm/GL/RL)
  • Slot 8: exotics (plasma rifle/IonRipper/Disintegrator/railgun/Phalanx/Thunderbolt)
  • Slot 9: superweapons (MGL/BFG2704/BFG9000/Plasma Beam/Gauss Cannon/Destructor)
  • Slot 0: hyperweapons (Unmaker/MRL/DMC/BFG10K)
