Based on my experience with most of these... Yes, OP. Many enemies exist that are worse than those Cultists. Even then, those are pretty easy to kill.

>>4133315

EZ. Yes it works fine with sv_aim 2 they'll just keep jumping into your line of fire.

Also when u first see them if they haven't attacked just immediately blow them up with rocket launcher, grenade launcher, lightning gun, whatever

It's not about being easy to kill, it's about the fact that there's always huge groups of them and that they react faster than Usain Bolt when he hears a starting pistol.

GEROSHAAAY GRUUUUOOOOOO

I have this game, I pirated it.

How the fuck do you set up WASDA controls? I want to play it so fuckin bad, it looks amazing.

I saw someone said to change it under 'mouse controls' but I can't find that setting.

>>4134504
Pretty easy... And then there's the grey ones.
Reminder: The first grey motherfucker you'll encounter is not easy. Also the lack of tesla cannons, life leeches, or voodoo dolls in the first episode.

>>4134542

open via dosbox

also make sure you go into mouse settings and set your right mouse click to alternative (special) fire that way. you won't be able to do this from the in-game control menu

>>4134601
>>4134601

How do I turn on freelook?

How do I turn off mouse forward = move forward?

Thanks a lot for your help anon this is going to be great to finally play it. I got the mouse left and right click sorted out.

>>4134639
Press 'u' in game (by default) to enable mouse look. Note it's a little clunky but you don't really need it for vertical aim due to the auto aim. Just use it to help you with dynamite aim and of course it will stop you moving in mouse Y axis.

You can set up the rest of your controls in the in game menu, too, including whether or not you want your mouse aim to be inverted.

>>4134542
BloodCM is accurate enough and provides a much comfier experience than the original overall with widescreen support, not totally trashy feeling mouselook, all options/binds available in app, and no emulation layers. It justwerx and includes the game too.

>>4134726
>BloodCM is accurate enough
no it's not, this guy is an absolute fucking retard and you shouldn't listen to him at all (probably that same bitch that's been BTFO'd repeatedly as well and now feels he's on a vendetta to promote his shitty eduke32 mod)

if you dont wanna use dosbox, at least use bloodgdx

>>4134504
>>4134582
Gargoyles (including the big grey ones) can't hit you if you duck. Feels cheap, but I find the boss versions to be really annoying enemies so I don't mind using it on them. The regular guys, they're easy enough to kill normally.

>>4134734
Oh please. BloodGDX is not finished and doesn't feel finished, though it would be ideal. Additionally, what... an enemy doesn't move 100% like before 100% of the time? It's not perfect but it's a decent way to play it with QOL improvements, spergdexter.

BMOUSE.EXE fixes the one-axis-at-a-time problem and makes the mouse way smoother. Also you'll probably want to increase the vertical mouse scaling in the setup program since it's just a fraction of the horizontal by default.

>>4135098
BloodCM is a recreation. It's someone looking at how Blood works and trying to make the same effects in what is essentially the Duke 3D engine. It gets various small things wrong, like physics, timing of enemy animations, the arc of thrown explosives, etc.

BloodGDX is similar in some ways, but the author claims to have used a decompiler or some other tool to at least partially copy the alpha code as closely as possible. Some effects are still unfinished, but it's the closest thing we have to a port right now. True purists would still say it's not close enough, but it's a damn sight better than BloodCM.

>>How do I turn on freelook?

You can use the U to to toggle mouselook on which of course disables mouse movement but I really suggest you just get used to mouse movement. It ain't that hard, and mouselook sucks shit in the build engine. Having it on all the time is bound to annoy the shit out of you.

>>4135725
>but I really suggest you just get used to mouse movement
I wouldn't. I play with mouse look on but just primarily use the mouse's x-axis. much better than dealing with the mouse movement which is far more sensitive. plus using the y axis for dynamite aim makes a dramatic difference and makes you much better with it. pressing U to toggle it on when you need it or using the keyboard aim just slows shit down and makes things a lot more disjointed.

I'll at least admit that I was wrong, or at least slightly behind. I tried BloodGDX last night and it seems to be in a decent state at this point, but fuck you guys anyway. A month or so ago BloodCM was the best way to play it, barring some minor compromises, you faggots. OH LAWDY LAWD this difference list:

E1M6 - Cannons fire randomly after picking up Fire key.
E1M7 - Crouching will not help you avoid Cheogh or Gargoyle attacks.
E2M4 - You can not finish the level without the Moon Key by crouching under the fence.
E2M5 - Completely different way to reach the Super Secret; you can not lock yourself in the underground tunnel.
E2M7 - You do not need Jump Boots to pass the section after the presses.
E6M2 - Broken mirror releases Hands, not Little Calebs.

It was so very broken and was not at all close enough. It's not like half of those were likely glitches to begin with. I hate you guys. But yes. There *is* a better way to play it now.

It still lacks sprite billboarding, making the enemies look like cardboard cutouts from directly above/below, and the proper 3D rendering is not faithful to how the original game looked. Does this not trigger your autism?

>>4135934
I'm not going to take your stupid b8 and you're not even worth talking about this. BloodCM is a piece of shit, end of. It's been discussed endlessly and the simple truth is that if somebody is literally too retarded to see how fucking off it is he really isn't even worth a conversation. Fuck off dickhead.

Senior citizen detected.

BloodCM is an easy way to play a 20 year old game. The changes can be considered quality of life at worst, and only a purist with *thorough* knowledge of the original will notice any changes.

If you've never played Blood before, BloodCM is still the easiest and best way to play it. Just turn on software rendering and you're good to go.

>dosbox is way too much for the average doom bab
Oh come on, you just drag and drop files, or at worst, type mount c:

>>4136604
Dosbox is not hard to use. It's just that source ports tend to provide a better look and feel compared to the DOS version of most games. A lot of these games had awful mouselook. Widescreen is nice. Raising the resolution high enough will put a strain on the CPU through emulation. Also, yeah, it's nice to have one less layer to go through. It's why people might want to use a source port, or god forbid, a TC, in exchange for a bit of accuracy.

Powerslave DOS version port/approximation when?

>>4136647
not the guy who you're responding, but imo, the mouselook in Blood was optimal. in games like Duke3d, it takes a good bit of tweaking to feel right, but Blood works great even with the default settings.

>>4136647
I have no problem with source ports. BloodCM is a piece of shit and is NOT a source port. You can also use BMouse with DOSBox if your pussy can't handle Blood's original aim. BloodGDX, though I haven't played it yet, actually looks decent just from youtube vids. That's a doom bab's best option if he can't just play the real game with DOSBox. It will give 1080p and widescreen support, too. Use that you retarded doom bab.

the default controls are literally the exact same as any modern fps, and the mouselook has the exact same feel, too.

>>4136824
>the default controls are literally the exact same as any modern fps
no they're not. blood's default controls aren't WASD, they're more like doom's classic default controls where if you're a keyboard player you use the arrow keys to move, ctrl to shoot, etc. anyway who gives a fuck when they're 100% customisable regardless and can be made as exactly as modern control schemes are. if you can't even customise your controls you probably shouldn't even be playing PC games let alone be posting on this board for retro fps.

you're also replying to two different people dickhead

>>4137178
I found it okay with bmouse. I did need to raise the y scaling in setup though because it's way slower than the x axis at the same scale.

PROTIP: Cultists/Fanatics can't shoot and turn or change their aim up/down at the same time (there's no animation for the latter, but their aim follows Caleb's head). This is even more effective at close range and when combined, ie: jumping/crouching while circling.
Keep them turning or following you through elevation changes and they never get to fire.

>>4137178
It's only weird if you try to look diagonally. As long as you look straight horizontal or vertical, then it's fine.

I'm, more used to doom anyway, so I mostly look just horizontally, which has no problems. It's only rarely that you have to shoot up or down, and in those cases you can just use vertical look to put yourself on the right horizontal plane, and then use horizontal look to aim and shoot.
