F***ing hell, this stuff is awesome I can't wait for the HeXen pack! Put this with the FreeLanzer stuff when it's done and the Doom family games might finally have something to rival EDuke32 + DN3D HRP.

Little update and finally continuing working on this (I lost my motivation on this for a while).

Now with a nicer new style I hereby present you how Cacodemons go boomy on gibbing:



Also, fighting Mr. Cyberdemon


More comes later

To do:

• Make nicer blood.
• Redoing the effects.
• Making more particle graphics.

And now, after this rather little update, back to work

Wow, I didn't see these yet, I like the cacodemon gib!

Update:

Explosion debris:


Spider Mastermind goes boomy:



What a variation of colors I have here (will come very useful for Heretic \ Hexen monsters \ objects):


Plasma effects (will add sparks):


Arch Vile revives a monster:


I'm so close on finishing this...

Also, I just found out what X\Y\Z momentum in A_SpawnItemEx means. It's so generic, I don't need to ACS anything or set any speeds! That cleans it up a lot!

Nice stuff there

However, I think most of the effects don't look translucent enough, if you know what I mean.
The sprites you use seem to mix into one big glowing and makes it impossible to see anything beyond it!
I also think the reviving effect of the Arch vile should be something like red fog rahter then the fire you used, since it's hands seem to glow in a red light when reviving a monster.

Still some good work here, so keep it up!

I added these effects onto my models, nice results:

Very interesting results, indeed

I just baked a new style of boomies:

It's just better than spheres ;P

Plasma projectiles now have their good old spark effects, this time with a newer method.



Also, I try and make everything look-through compatible.

really cool no wait.. hot... you should make the bfg hit much nicer and not that good ol doom bfg sprite

...an UPDATE!

The alpha channel bug is fixed now, and I played with it for circa a hour, so I made a new explosion with neat smoke! I don't need the additive renderstyle now, which made everything bright and so on to get the nice fade-outs on the edges! This is just awesome from the look of it! ^^



Also, using the enhanced amplification visors \ the invulnerability power-ups don't make everything look... weird, inverted and... boxy. So I can just say one thing:

'Alpha channels = 1337'

I shall continue my work only with alpha channeled graphics now.

Very nice work! I saw screens from your sandstorm too, looks great! I'm going to make smoke and sand effects using 3d models, I want to get effect simillar to Doom 3 smoke effects. Who knows what's it come from it For now I only made 26 frames sprite of rocket trail with standard method

Wow! Nothing to add

Completely revamped the main post. There you can find some demos of my work now, like the explosion.

@Azure:
Actually, I'm not sure if Doom3 had the particles as models or just plain textures. I don't even know if someone comes far with 3D models... =\

Yes, Doom 3 uses planes with textures for particles. Exactly, I'm thinking about planes models not models like in Quake 2 Of course only there where sprite can't be uses. I must say it again: GREAT WORK!

An update! But so hella late... boooo!

Added (FINALLY) the new fire effects... looks kinda neat due to my new-new-new technique to draw them... err, or something along those lines.



Left most is a test one... all together make it multi colored. Looks kinda neat

...now I'm playing with the explosions again...

It's preety nice!
