[GZDoom] Hell-Forged *WIP*

After having worked on SEED for a number of months, I've realized my current experience is still insufficient to make it to the quality I would like - mainly lying with my inability to draw the textures, design the buildings, and to make the many anime-ish portraits and comic-like slide show I require. That said, I will revitalize DE in order to complete what I've already begun (to a degree) and gain additional experience.

NOTE: Episode 2 is missing 2 maps. The secret exit in the 2nd map, and the exit for the 3rd map do not work. Please skip those exits and use the changemap console command.

That said, Episode will be severely nerfed from its original splendor, as I cannot see how that is feasible given my current timeframe. The multi-hub format will instead be replaced with the linear-progression format of Doom, and the monsters mixed into 1 linear game progression rather than held in their own Planes. This will accompany the massive cuts of monsters and many gameplay aspects I wanted. All these changes are necessary to make EP3 feasible as a one-man project. Should time and experience allow in the future, I will certainly make an attempt make Ep3 in its full intended form. Below are a list of major changes to DE, mostly regarding the Episode 3.

CHANGES:

*Episode 3 will now be renamed to "City of the Damned". It is thus, built around a large hellish city. Some old aspects of old EP3 will be incorporated in to this new design. Hades Spire, for example, will become a middle-map with the Overlord as the semi-boss (gonna get beefed up a bit).

*List of new levels: (subject to change).

-Mouth of Hell.
-Outter Dens.
-Tartarus Pit.
-Hades Spire.
-Upper Echelons.
-Innter Sanctums.
-The Fortress.
-The Throne.
-Sewers (secret).

*All other boss monsters are scrapped, with exception of the final boss. I have no means to produce Dracolich, Tarasque, or Pitlord. The Stygian Queen only has half a rotation finished. And although I can certainly finish it with no 3D modeling, its too time consuming and will not be made.

*Many of the monsters will be completely scrapped. Instead of listing the 50 or so monster I've thrown away, below is the cast of monster that will be used.

-Basic Trooper: Nightshade/Hellion/Watcher
-Melee: Demon/Bloodfiend/Hades Orb/Nightmare/Harpy (new)
-Flyer: Caco/Inferno/Wicked
-Grunt: Myrmidon (new) /Wicked (remade)
-Annoying: Archvile/Guru (new)
-Midboss: Hierophant/Archon of Hell/Overseer/Diabolist (maybe)
-Boss: Overlord/maybe something else
-Final Boss: Moloch

*Ep3 Monster Changes and new additions:

-The Fallen is no longer a generic flyer. The new sprites will be much larger and more menacing to reflect it's new role. Its attacks will be greatly boosted.
-Harpy: A more evil demonic looking lost soul that is completely molten (like the Fallen) with wings instead of a ball of fire. Similar attack to LS but faster and
more aggressive (seeking charge attack). Spawns from dead Fallen (like the PE).
-Both the Hellion and Wicked will have new or update sprites (started the hellion a long time ago), as well as a melee attack animation.
-Myrmidon: A Baron-like monster, half-way between a Hellknight and Baron in terms of HP (750).
-Guru: formerlly the "Corrupter". Boosters monster damage, speed, or health for limited time; summons lower monsters.

*Episode 3 weapons are now restricted to the same 4 hell ammo types as before. That said, some of the weapons will be removed and reincorported. There will only be 6 weapons, but most will have an alternate firing mode. This cuts off on the number of weapons I need to sprite. Alternate modes are unlocked with additional pickups (varies for each weapon)

-Vorpal Blade: Same behavior - starting weapon.
-BloodWyrm: Rapid medium-range spraying weapon. Alt: Homing explosive. (1 alt-pieces).
-Shard-thrower: Dual-wield Semi-fast weapon; fires impaling projectiles that split into damage shards over distance. Alt: Damaging bone-wall (2 alt-pieces)
-Incinerator: Short-range spray AOE weapon. Alt: Explosive grenade-like projeciles. (3 alt-pieces)
-Doombringer: Rail-gun like beam weapon. Alt: Intensifying rapid-beam, causes slain enemies to explode. (4-alt-pieces)
-Hellstorm: Uses no ammo (5-shot limit, regenerates). Fires sticky electric ball (kill large enemies, get ammo) Alt: giant annihilation sphere.

*Episode 2 will go through some heavy revisioning. In additional to the 2 maps that is yet to be completed, some monsters will be scrapped/altered. Some maps will be remade completely.

-Deathknight will be removed from the game. Its behavior is too BS to make it a viable monster. It will probably be replaced by 2 boss-level enemies (see
below).
-Hellduke: Hellforge version of the Cyberdemon - tripple Hellstaff attack.
-Director: Hellforge version of Spider-Mastermind - Hellforge Cannon.

*Some monsters will be resprited to update their appearence and to make them more fitting for their new roles in the Ep3-Nerf.

-Archon of Hell: Differen color scheme and design, to match the new colors of Ep2 (and 3).
-Cybruiser: Better cynerbetics to match Doom-style better.
-Guardian: New look, same old behavior. Started this just before I gave up. Should be much better than the heretic rip-off.
-Sentinel: New look, more power - summons 3 Guardians instead of 2. Some attack changes. New look to match the aesthetics of the new Guardian (design is done).

*Ep2 Map Changes:

-Dungeon Map will be remade
-Hellkeep Map will be remade
-Towers of Suffering Map will be remade
-Hellforge will be remade
