Changelog for BETAv2:
---------------------
-Nerfed the fist's damage scalar. The Fist is still viable in a crowd, but is no longer viable against more threatening enemies such as the cyberdemon or the spider mastermind.
-Replaced the Chainsaw with a Double Bladed Chainsaw. Also modified the damage scalar from it's original and it is now viable in combat against more threatening monsters or in a crowd.
-Replaced the Pistol with a Colt .45. Also modified it's original damage scalars so it's now viable against more threatening enemies or in a crowd.
-Added a new weapon called "The Enforcer." It's a pistol and slot 2 weapon. It consumes no ammo, but only does 40% of the damage that the Colt .45 does. In your inventory at start.
-Added a new weapon called "The Knife." It's obviously a knife, and is a slot 1 weapon. Also modified the damage scalar from it's original value and it is now viable in combat against more threatening monsters or in a crowd. In your inventory at start.
-Changed the Shotgun sprites/sounds. Modified the spread to a tighter radius, but allowed for vertical spread.
-Changed the SSG sprites/sounds. Modified the spread to a tighter radius.
-Replaced the Chaingun with an AK47. Modified the damage scalar from it's original.
-Replaced the Plasma Rifle with a "Pulse Rifle" and changed it's rate of fire from a really slow rate to a medium rate. Also modified the damage scalar of it's ammo. WARNING! THIS ALSO AFFECTS ARACHNOTRONS! Consumes normal cells.
-Replaced the BFG9000 with a weapon titled "Nuclear Missile Launcher." THIS WEAPON IS EXTREMELY POWERFUL. IT WILL EXCEED DAMAGE SCALARS AND GOD MODE DOES NOT WORK WITH IT. IT WILL KILL YOU AND YOUR WHOLE TEAM! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT SURVIVAL NOT BE USED WITH THIS MOD! This is the result of modifying the damage scalars of every property to 5000. Also modified the speed from 30 to 10. The rocket is extremely slow. Uses a special ammo type that you cannot pick up. You must pick up other N.M.L.'s or backpacks to aquire more ammo. Consumes 1 ammo per fire, and gives 2 ammo from pickup of weapon. Backpacks enable 4 max ammo, and give 1.
-Modified the damage scalar of regular rockets exceptionally. Rockets now deal close to 40x the damage they normally do. WARNING! THIS ALSO AFFECTS THE CYBERDEMON!
-Added reflective properties to the Invulnerability Sphere's effect. Projectiles now bounce off of you when you are under it's effect.
-Player's max non SR-40 movement speed has been increased from 110% to 115%.
02/13/2012
Changelog for BETAv3:
---------------------
-Changed the N.M.L.'s damagetype to "NUCLEAR" and set the player(s) to be immune to its damage. Kickback still throws the character all over the place, however survival is still not recommended with this MOD (although now actually playable with it). Also changed the N.M.L. pickup message to remove the warning.
-Changed the N.M.L.'s rocket speed from "10" to "5" slowing the rocket down even further.
-Increased the N.M.L.'s damage scalars for additional damage to monsters ensuring death for 99% of anything in the room (except for what's around corners).
-Changed weapon.selectionorder for every weapon making weapons such as the SSG stay out when picking up the regular SG etc.
-Changed the SSG Sprites and animation seeing as the last version had delayed firing, added screen quake to the firing action.
-Player's max non SR-40 movement speed decreased from 115% back to 110%. Player was a little too fast at 115% movement speed.
-Clips now yield 10 rounds per pickup instead of 15.
-Shotgun shells have been returned to their default pickup value of 4.
-Rocket ammo has now been returned to its default pickup value of 1.
-Cell ammo now yeilds 10 cells per pickup instead of 30.
-Boxes of Bullets now yield 50 bullets (default) instead of 80.
-Boxes of Shells now yield 20 shells (default) instead of 30.
-Boxes of Rockets now yield 5 rockets (default) instead of 8.
-CellPacks now yield 50 cells instead of 150.
-Player can now only hold a maximum of 150 bullets without the backpack, 300 with the backpack.
-Player can now only hold a maximum of 30 shells without the backpack, 60 with the backpack.
-Player can now only hold a maximum of 25 rockets without the backpack, 50 with the backpack.
-Player can now only hold a maximum of 150 cells without the backpack, 300 with the backpack.
-All monsters have been swapped out with more engaging and troublesome monsters with alternate attacks.
-The Colt .45 (pistol) has been removed.
-The Enforcer Pistol has now been upgraded to require reloading with the alternate fire function, and the spread of the bullets fired has been increased slightly. Clips hold 12 rounds before needing to be reloaded, however the player can reload at any time there is less than 12 rounds in the current clip. At the start of game the clip is empty, not sure why.
-All monsters have been replaced and have new attacks, more health, and almost all monsters are now severely threatening.
-The Rocket Launcher now fires custom HOMING rockets. Oh yea, I said homing. Careful, they can kill without exploding (they have to hit a wall or solid object other than a monster to explode), allowing the rocket to continue homing towards another target, even if it's behind you!
-Status Bar (SBARINFO) changed to reflect ammo capacities.
3/10/2012
Changelog for RC_1:
-------------------
-Renamed mod to "EffinDOOM" from "DamagePlus"
-Most low monsters given a touch more health to make them a little more resistant to damage.
-The Super Shotgun was replaced with the Fire SSG from jkemod-11. Modified it's primary fire to the standard SuperShotgun fire, and changed the altfire to the Fire SSG's normal primary fire in jkemod-11. Primary fire does as much damage as the last SSG.
-Corrected certain grammar errors throughout the mod for weapon pickups, monster kills, and other things.
-Added ejecting shell/round casings to both shotguns, the AK47, and the Enforcer Pistol. All sounds and sprites ripped from jkemod-11.
-Changed the TITLEPIC and INTERPIC to more represent the challenge of the mod. :3

With this one I toyed with the coding and the sprites until it was fixed and working properly. Inflicting pain on them made them disappear instead of showing pain, and that was after I made them not look like a snowy tv set... >.>'

Sprite Edit: Jimmy
With this one I only had to make minor tweaks to get it working properly. The only thing I can note is it's "Height" property which was missing, so you could only shoot it in the feet until I put the Cyberdemon's actual height rating into it. >.>'
RailArachnotron (Arachnotron):

Submitted: Captain Toenail (latest version)
Decorate: Tormentor667, Captain Toenail

Submitted: Tormentor667
Decorate: Xaser
GLDEFs: Dreadopp
Sounds: Id Software
Sprites: Id Software
Sprite Edit: Assmaster
Idea Base: The Tortured Soul from Nick's original "Beastiary"
With this one I removed it's "Poison gas attack" and added the standard PainElemental attack, which of course spits out LostSouls (or in our case PoisonSouls) since that attack string was missing. I also made it immune to "Poison" damage and shortened the time between attacks.

Authors MAY build on this code and use for any purpose they want. Please make sure to just credit me on the original code/compilation. I know this isn't much, but it's my first attempt at something. It's only a BETA because I'm still working out the damage/spread scalar and I've only released this becuase I want some tips on improvement. I am going to continue to learn and improve this mod and will eventually turn it into a PWAD with completely custom content for everything.
