=========================================================================== Archive Maintainer : please replace the currently-archived copy of this modification with this new one Update to : rslzerox.zip in /combos subdirectory, this is RELEASE #4! Advanced engine needed : GZDOOM 1.6.0 (no GLDEFS) Primary purpose : Single play =========================================================================== Title : RSL and Zero Tolerance Filename : rslzerox.pk3 (includes original base, as per idgames://15321/) Release date : September 1, 2016 Author : Richard Smith Long Email Address : [redacted] Other Files By Author : rslproto.zip, rslvenge.zip, rslrebel.zip, rslengee.zip, rsliczdp.zip, rslforce.zip, rslredux.zip, rslshino.zip, rslquest.zip Misc. Author Info : AKA "Dick S. Long" Description : many of those who are reading this now will argue that a modification like """"""""""" 'Zero Tolerance' needs no extras whatsoever - it's just perfect. True, but have you tried facing HR-style hordes of demons with this set? I did, and you can call me wimp or DOOM-llama, but that's when I realized this jewel lacked a truly powerful, effective, ultimate weapon. And so I decided to stay true to the original author indications, by adding to Infinity what Zero Prophet always wanted to: ... a black-hole-style suction effect! ... I also took the liberty of integrating a new, more bulky blood system together with a few touchups on a couple monster projectiles. This is my humble homage to this monster of an arsenal - may you enjoy it! Changelog: """"""""" September 29, 2011: initial release. May 17, 2012: release #1+. - polished the BLOOD lump. - added The_Lurkers' replacement blood for former humans. January 31, 2013: release #3. - added custom small font and standard status bar mugshot. - altered Z_DOOM lump. - fixed behaviour of particle actors on moving flats (MOVEWITHSECTOR). - improved appearance of still actors whenever applicable (FORCEXYBILLBOARD). - fixed/balanced behaviour of redefined bosses. September 1, 2016: release #4. - 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. 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\rslzerox.pk3 Mainly credits to : Zero Prophet, author of the (unsurpassable!) original version of 'Zero Tolerance'!
