Doom 3 mancubus code#

In a ZDoom-based source port, if the player is killed by a Mancubus (monster is credited with delivering the blow that reduces player's health to 0%), an obituary message is displayed at the top of the screen: ' was squashed by a Mancubus'.The Mancubus also shares its presence sound clips with the Zombieman.The Mancubus, like the Arch-vile and the Pain Elemental, are the only monsters who has its own unique pain sound clips in this case, the Mancubus makes a low grunt in its pain state.The Mancubus, along with the Demon, Spiderdemon, and Cyberdemon, are the only monsters whose dying sound clips includes noise other than the monsters' vocals in this case, there is an audible gurgling as its blood pours out.Manducus is also the Latin word for glutton (the syllable man- is also the beginning of the Latin word mancus, meaning 'maimed' or 'with a crippled or missing limb', alluding to the fact that the monster has flamethrowers instead of arms). A fitting explanation for the name of the monster seems to be a bastardized combination of the termination of the medieval demon names succubus and incubus preceded by the syllable man-, possibly refering to the Latin verb manducāre, which means 'to chew' or 'to devour'.The Mancubus's face is very similar to that found in the megasphere.The extra nipples are not really distinguishable in the in-game representation, where only the upper 'normal' ones are seen, although their intended locations can still be seen. The latex model of the monster used as a base for the sprite, seen here, has three pairs of nipples.

def files for the Archvile (they left them in the demo! XD), and it apparantly has at least two attacks (counting the floorhugger), and for some reason it has code for resurrecting monsters.? Anyone willing to sit in front of an archvile on God mode for a while waiting for it's rarer attack, which is described on the Doom wiki as similar to the original's attack? I just hope it isn't map-scripted. It looks fine from the front, but since the rotations are mirrored, it'll look like a useless amount of work if you're viewing it from different angles (especially 2, 3 and 4 :/). I just flipped and copy/flipped the sprites for a second melee attack for the imp. They use the AI from the ZSec on the R667 Beastiary (No credit given, since I'm the one who coded it ) since the real map-independant AI (Stand and shoot, maybe take a step to the side or crouch) is quite bland and WAY too easy to kill in Doom 2, but since they don't seem done to me, I'm marking them as 99% done. Machinegun and Shotgun variants of the ZSec are done. The sprites fit the model pretty well, too: If you can do better than what I have, I'd be happy for the help, but if you're capable, I think there are some bigger fish to fry, like the pinky, lost soul or forgotten one. I like the new imp as well as the old imp, but personal preference notwithstanding, I certainly won't redesign the look Doom 3 imp for this mod. The Doom 2 weapons are more powerful (and faster, I think) than the ones in Doom 3 and the player's much faster, too, so that's why the mancubus is weaker.Ībout the imp sprites, I can't do better than what I have, I don't have anything better and nobody's offered to do better.

The mancubus sprites (and the imp sprites, for that matter), are from the Doom 2.5 mod for Edge that was never finished, and have been used here and there. I'll increase the delays for the Mancubus' death, too. Six: It only took me about 30 seconds to do the code for the random melee attack.
