Author Info : AKA "Dick S. Long" Description : every now and then, I still enjoy myself with a quick run through ........... an old level with the DeHackEd/ZDOOM version of Immoral Conduct. Some time ago I decided to create a small, graphics-only patch with the right marine hands on the sniper rifle. Now I am releasing this little patch for you old-timers along with a couple other sprites... Changelog: ......... May 15, 2010: initial release. Aug 19, 2010: release #2. - added custom status bar skin/mugshot. - added custom menu/log font. - added custom player sprites matching the mugshot. - corrected sniper rifle credits (thanks to Marty Kirra for pointing that out). Sep 01, 2010: release #3. - added custom player sounds. - added custom color palette. - introduced a new high-tier DECORATE weapon to better balance solo gameplay (icd-deh originally conceived for deathmatch only). Mar 21, 2011: release #4. - added Q3A-style gore effects (original modification provided custom blood effects only). - added custom sprites for shotguns, assault rifle (IMHO better suiting the modification theme). Sep 17, 2011: release #5. - added target lock system for Assault Battery. - brought on par with other modifications of mine for a small detail. Apr 25, 2012: release #5+. - added custom teleportation effect. Jan 22, 2013: release #7. - added custom M_DOOM logo. - completed modification documentation. - improved appearance of still actors whenever applicable (FORCEXYBILLBOARD). - fixed attack power of renewed Cyberdemon. - added an extra 'Flynn Taggart' set of HUDs / player skin change readapted from WildWeasel. June 24, 2014: release #7+. - added an extra 'John Grimm' set of HUDs / player skin change based off the original HUD concept from DoomNukem. - redefined explosive barrel and bloodsplatter actors. - fixed a few formal inconsistencies and spelling mistakes in this very text file. Aug 20, 2016: release #8. - incorporated base modification from the original author, in order to render the addon independent from further alterations of the starting package. The original files are included _unaltered_ in the final .PK3 archive; no credit infringement is intended. - marked unsupported video modes in the appropriate (G)ZDOOM menu. - extended XDeath support to all foes, whenever applicable. - added high-resolution mugshot to the 'John Grimm' HUD/skin. Sep 7, 2019: release #9. - introduced a new, high-resolution 16:9 HUD representing an homage to the upcoming new game in the series. - introduced appropriate weapon tags for the original, reskinned arsenal. - introduced the 'rsl' console command for convenience, as in all of my other modifications. - repositioned the dedicated CREDITS / GAMEINFO lumps as appropriate. - deferred MENUDEF redefinitions to additional HUDs, as per their supported screen ratios. The original modification is actually ratio-independent. - added custom fonts, mugshots and palettes to additional HUDs. Apr 5, 2020: release #10. - added 'Divine Shadow' as the new Arch-Vile replacement for the "DOOM Slayer" HUD/skin. - introduced 'Enemy Health Dot Scouter' as a new support tool for the "DOOM Slayer" HUD/skin. December 19, 2021: release #10+. - optimized sound packaging. - added nametags to all applicable actors. - customized skill levels. - added footsteps system to "DOOM Slayer" HUD/skin. What's included: ............... Replacement sprites for the following actors: Sniper Rifle : now with proper marine skin-toned gloves. Shotguns : customized with wooden parts and levers. Assault Rifle : modernized with a badass lock-and-rearm animation. Zombieman : now the Zombieman actually wields and fires pistols, and it's much more believable that he scatters pistol clips around. NOW GIBBABLE! ShotgunGuy : a zombified marine, one ex-fellow of yours. Holds that powerful black-finished shotgun he lovely drops for you (well, almost). NOW GIBBABLE! ChaingunGuy : a brand-new, deadly uzi-equipped soldier with a custom XDeath animation arranged by me. NOW GIBBABLE! DoomImp : NOW GIBBABLE! Cyberdemon : NOW ALWAYS GIBBED! Spider Mastermind : NOW ALWAYS GIBBED! A brand-new status bar skin to match the modification theme. An extra set of HUDs/skins mutuated from WildWeasel (WWHUD\rslwwhud.wad), DoomNukem (DNHUD\rsldnhud.pk3) and NEKOBLUX.001 / PALADIN JULIO (D4EHUD\rsld4ehh.pk3). The latter also includes 'Divine Shadow' as Arch-Vile replacement and 'Enemy Health Dot Scouter' as visual support tool, to help detecting the health status of the enemy under your crosshair. A new font for menus and log messages. A custom color palette to exhalt the dimmed feel of the modification. Custom player sounds to fit with the new mugshot. Custom Q3A-style gibs, where applicable. A custom teleportation effect. A new definition of explosive barrel. Particle-style bloodsplatter effects. And a new high-tier weapon, the Assault Battery. Perfect heavy artillery device (with sprites originally produced by Cory Whittle) that can unleash six seeker missiles that follow the pointed target (if any). Two well-placed rounds - with all missiles connecting - can destroy a Cyberdemon. Go figure... :-D Footnotes: ......... (1) The suggested commandline for launching the modification is the following one (assumes that the modification has been decompressed in subdirectory 'RSL' of your (G)ZDOOM directory): (g)zdoom.exe -iwad \ -file RSL\rsliczdp.pk3 (2) To try the added 4:3 'Flynn Taggart' skin/set of HUDs from WildWeasel, use the following commandline (assumes that the modification has been decompressed in subdirectory 'RSL' of your (G)ZDOOM directory): (g)zdoom.exe -iwad \ -file RSL\rsliczdp.pk3 RSL\WWHUD\rslwwhud.wad (3) Similarly, for the extra 4:3 'John Grimm' skin/set of HUDs stemming from the DoomNukem HUD concept, use the following commandline (assumes that the modification has been decompressed in subdirectory 'RSL' of your (G)ZDOOM directory): (g)zdoom.exe -iwad \ -file RSL\rsliczdp.pk3 RSL\DNHUD\rsldnhud.pk3 (4) And eventually, if you would like to try the 16:9 'DOOM Slayer' skin/set of HUDs made as a little homage to the series' upcoming new game, use the following commandline (assumes that the modification has been decompressed in subdirectory 'RSL' of your (G)ZDOOM directory): (g)zdoom.exe -iwad \ -file RSL\rsliczdp.pk3 RSL\D4EHUD\rsld4ehh.pk3 (5) To obtain the complete set of weapons and/or carriable items for quicktesting without breaking the weapon set at your disposal, type 'rsl' in the console.
