=========================================================================== (Doom 2 Minor Sprite Fix Recommended) =========================================================================== Version : The Final Lamb Update Advanced engine needed : Doom2.exe or compatible Primary purpose : Single =========================================================================== Title : Slotter Filename : slotter.wad, slotter.deh, slotter_ws.wad Release date : 07/19/2022 Author : Arsinikk Email Address : [redacted] Other Files By Author : - 100 Line Massacre (with NinjaDelphox) - Purple Rain Misc. Author Info : Arsinikk is an expert at petting llamas. Description : Slotter is a teaser map for the upcoming vanilla Slaughter megawad 200 Line Massacre. It features some of the new variants/enemies and altered arsenal you can expect in the upcoming megawad. This map / upcoming megawad relies heavily on Vanilla DEHACKED, so mods are not recommended. All difficulties have been implemented. "Vile Cruelty" (UV Plus) is also available with additional monsters and items for those who would like an extra challenge. You can access "Vile Cruelty" in DSDA Doom and Woof-based ports with the argument "-coop_spawns". Use "-solo-net" for Eternity and PrBoom Plus. ZDoom ports have an option added to the Skill selection menu (note that older ZDoom versions may not have the recent enough code to do the new skill correctly). =========================================================================== IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT PLAYING SLOTTER: Play and record demos on -complevel 2 (Especially on PrBoom Plus) ZDoom based ports, Eternity, DSDA Doom, and Woof-based ports have compatibility settings applied automatically. If using the Eternity Engine, make sure you are using devbuild 4.03.00 or higher. - https://devbuilds.drdteam.org/eternity/ (There is a game-breaking bug in the current 4.02.00 stable build as of now). --- How to launch --- : For source ports: use slotter.wad (-complevel 2). DEHACKED is directly embedded in the wad file. For Vanilla Doom/MS-DOS: you must patch your own doomhack.exe yourself with Dehacked (version 1.9 of Doom2.wad is required, even for Chocolate Doom users) slotter_ws.wad is optional for ports that support widescreen graphics. =========================================================================== * Credits * Mapping : Arsinikk NinjaDelphox Playtesting and : Arsinikk quality control NinjaDelphox Graphics, Custom : Arsinikk Palette/Colourmap DehackEd, Decorate, : Arsinikk MAPINFOs =========================================================================== * Additional Credits * Music: - TITLE: "Task Force" - Lee Jackson Credits - INTERMISSION: "Something Loopy" - Castlevania Chronicles - READ ME: "Agony Rhapsody" - Jonathan El-Bizri (TNT MAP06) - MAP01: "Sweaty Mancubus Armpits" - Metabolist - MAP02: "Boss Theme" - Sonic 3 - EXTRA: "Mirage" - Mark Klem "Junkie Smack" - Mark Klem "Dance of the Sugarplum Lunatic" - Mark Klem Texture credits: - Additional textures and flats from CC4-TEX - Gold skull textures, green exit sign, and green exit door by Arsinikk Sprite credits: - New Keen, gold skull, lamb, chaingun, BFG / Plasma recolours, Double chainsaw addition + cat graphic, orange armour, Jack 'o' Lantern (gray to red) recolour, and bloodsphere sprite tweaks by Arsinikk - 100%/80% health status bar mug sprites from Deus Vult II, and 60%/40%/invuln health status bar mug sprites created by Arsinikk - New pistol, shotgun, SSG, and chainsaw sprites adapted from "Doom 2 Minor Sprite Fix", "Black Gloves for the Doomguy" by Grimm, and "Smooth Weapons Enhanced" by NightFright / Nash - Double fist sprites from Bourgeois Deathmatch - Plasma base graphics by Christopher Golden (Doom Zero) - Jack 'o' Lantern enemy base, Fast imp attack sprites (with 6 extra rotations by Vphurple Izumi), Evil Eye attack and death sprites, berserk bloodsphere base, megasphere, hazmat suit, and Cyberdemon head on stick sprites from Realm667 - Pinky gib animation by Beefgee - New barrel sprites by Vphurple Izumi - Lamb rotation sprites by Evilneck - Green Cyberdemon sprites by Ribbiks (Tweaked offsets and colours) - Doom Prototype Chalice graphics by id Software - Nightmare ZDoom Bigfont by Arsinikk - based on character graphics made by Amuscaria and from eevee Doom Text Generator Sound credits: - Impostor Imp SFX from strain.wad - Plasma and Arachnotron SFX by Christopher Golden (Doom Zero) - Evil eye monster and Jack 'o' Lantern SFX from Realm667 - New Double Chainsaw SFX by Arsinikk =========================================================================== * What is included * New levels : 5 Sounds : Yes Music : Yes Graphics : Yes Dehacked/BEX Patch : Yes Demos : No Other : No Other files required : No (use both slotter.wad and slotter.deh for Vanilla/Chocolate Doom) * Play Information * Game : Doom 2 Map # : MAP01-MAP05 Single Player : Designed for Cooperative 2-4 Player : Yes Deathmatch 2-4 Player : Possible?
