Has anybody ever heard of a mod that...
« on: September 07, 2024, 05:18:13 PM »
Has anybody ever heard of a mod that randomizes, in the middle of a match (like for FFA), the weapon that spawns at the respective weapon spawn points? Like every 60 seconds or so, the rocket launcher spawn becomes the chaingun, hyper becomes railgun, etc.? It would be totally random, though without multiple copies of each weapon, unless there were already more than 1x spawn of that weapon on the map (like 2x RL on DM1, or 2x MG, etc.). I probably wouldn't like it, but it would be a unique gameplay experience at least. I was just curious if anybody happened to know if something similar had already been done.

I don't think I've come across a mod like that.

The remaster/rerelease has a Game Modifier -> Random Weapons ("g_dm_random_items") setting that seems to switch out weapons every so often. It also switches out armors/powerups to other items of various usefulness like the silencer and Dualfire Damage from the Reckoning expansion.

This seems to be adapted from the original code in the Rogue/Ground Zero expansion which uses the "randomrespawn" cvar, with an improvement so it works with Weapons Stay. I can't seem to find any other modifiers for it though.

Somewhat related but not quite what you're looking for, I remember a mod called NIQ - No Items Quake. As the name implies, it removes items from the map and instead spawns everyone with a random weapon for a configured duration.

NIQ - That is a blast! My favourite mod. I liked to config the blaster to do 200 damage.
