Hey folks. Here's a preview of what the Doom Plasmagun will (more or less) look like in the next version of Generations.

Plasmagun preview

Ofcourse, the plasma effects will be nicely shaderized to reflect your preferred colour, as does our current version.

We're also making nice progress with the animations for doom, so I'll just take this opportunity to deliver some good news: We're making nice progress with the animations for doom.

Didn't you just repeat yourself there? Slipgate - Wink

The Plasmagun looks much better than it once looked like. First the Strogg Machinegun, now this? I wonder just how many weapons you're going to reskin...

Looks like i will have to get used to that model. But its more nostalgic and better to hold your gun by handle, not by hot tubes filled with color adjustible plasma. d:

We're tweaking things all the time. Complete remodels such as this one (or the machinegun) will be relatively rare. Throughout the years of Gen development, we've all learned a lot here, meaning that sometimes an 'old' version jumps out as a candidate for a remake. This is especially true for the process of animating guns, since this puts models in a different light.

Keep in mind also the plasma rifle was the first model I ever completed, which means it looked a bit "dated".  My philosophy on how the guns should look was also more leaning Q3-ish and less classic because Q3 had a good deal of eye candy at the time, and I wanted to see what we could do with it.  I've been working with Tab on the redesign on this weapon, and for the most part I think this will probably be the only Doom weapon to get a serious overhaul like this.

The old Doom plasma rifle was one of my favorite guns in Gen.. but this redesign looks just as good, and a lot more nostalgic.

I was pretty attached to the old plasma gun, but I like the new one a lot, and yes, the custom color feature is still there.
