Cool mod. I love how it makes the Unmaykr more useful since Superheavies drop BFG ammo and how it turns Full Auto into a workhorse weapon since ammo can sometimes be hard to obtain. These kinds of challenge modes always feel refreshing to me. However, I do have a few suggestions.
I think the Flame Belch does not seem to be very useful. It would be cool if the Flame Belch puts some kind of debuff on demons since its current purpose as an area damage dealer overlaps with the Frag Grenade.
It is very hard to recover when at low health. I think you should let all demons drop additional health when you are at low health like how normal Doom Eternal does it.
I think the Marauder should have the same lootdrops as the Archvile/Tyrant. People use complex combos on Marauders, so the reward for killing one being a surplus of shells may result in the player being low on all other ammo types.
Another issue that is probably unfixable is since the lootdrops don't gravitate towards you, there are some moments where dropped loot will fall into unreachable areas. This happened a lot in UAC Atlantica Facility since a lot of its arenas have bottomless pits.
Put the .zip file in your mods folder and run the modinjector. You can get the modinjector and instructions on how to use it here - https://gamebanana.com/tools/7475
Your idea is awesome. This mod is what I was looking for. Congratulations! However, I can see you are still working on that. I think that showing the loot drops is important to have a completely retro immersive experience.
Some more ideas to help, just in case you like them:
-Make the ammo packs that you find along the way give much more ammo, as well as the armors. -Make the BFG work with plasma ammo and that the BFG ammo packs give plasma. -You can also borrow ideas from other mods, requesting the necessary permissions, and incorporate them into yours (the work is already done), such as changing the Baron of Hell skin to look more like the classic or 2016, or changing the name of Tyrant to Cyberdemon. -The super shotgun should not give armor.
I will follow your work closely. Congratulations for the idea and sorry about my English.
Thanks for the support! I have seen that there are already a few recent mods which do many of the things I wanted to do with this mod, and so when I get round to it, I will go through them and make an update. Just for everyone to know though, let me know if you want to take over making this mod; I'm still working on my Second Invasion mod and that will take a while yet so I'm happy for other people to take over if they want
update 2022 : I've done it! :) all works as planned
