Total Chaos Modification, Gameplay

FOLLOW THE MOD PROGRESS HERE: http://wadaholic.wordpress.com/

Total Chaos is a mod which runs on an OpenGL port of the Doom 2 engine. The idea of the mod is to push the engine to its limit, attempting to get some life out of the 14 year old engine. The mod can run on both Skulltag and GZDoom but this video is rendered (%100) using the Skulltag engine.

The mod features current-gen features such as HDR, Lightbeam lighting, Volumetrics, Light scattering and more.
Since the engine is limited, these effects have been mimiked to look like the real deal, but have a similar (or sometimes the same) effect.

The mod is revolved around the horror theme.

Mod created by Wad'a'Holic (Sam Prebble), Tribeam & Caleb Sawtell.

@kyllerunderworld, mods not dead, set for Q4 2012 release

[heehebjehemdaar]

Kay Wada that sounds pretty good:)

If you release it will it be standalone btw?

[WadaHolic]

The plan is to try and get this working standalone. It'll be released with its own IWAD which should work under either GZDoom or Skulltag. However at this time I cannot give a final answer. We'll have to wait and see when its done ;)

Looks cool and seems to be scary .. erh so you Cant take those ghost or whatever they are on you just run around getting scared? [not really a comment but a question]

[WadaHolic]

Whenever you enter a new area you'll have time to get familiar with your surroundings before the enemies come at you. Only way to defeat them is either to outrun them or outsmart them, by luring them into a trap, or locking them in certain areas. Think the car in Ravenholm in Half-Life 2, when the zombies walk under it, you can activate a leaver to drop the car on them.

My one complaint is the bobbing up and down while walking, its a little annoying, but I am completely blown away by how awesome this looks.

[WadaHolic]

That can be disabled with a console command :)

Fuck yeah Skulltag

[Nintendostar123]

nice use of misspelling dynamic!

[TrueDudeX]

No, not the pallets!

NOT THE PALLETS!

[TheOtherLioyd]

DAAAAAYUM. I'll be following that closely. Here's hoping it's not one of those cheap "HOLY SHIT LOUD NOISE TO SIGNAL SHIT JUMPING AT YOU ARE YOU SCARED YET" things, it's worth so much more.

@gallifrey1212 actually yes (but noone use all this resources in the same mod)

[gallifrey1212]

There's no way this is real--it's too gorgeous! I had no clue Skulltag was capable of rendering such amazing graphics! I hope you plan on releasing this soon. I. LOVE. HORROR. WADS. If you want beta testers, I'm totally up for it!

Could you make the protagonist female?

[r3ini]

omg, holy shit, I love you. I've allways wanted a terrifing wad for doom, seriously, exelent job.

[matzureff4]

kinda reminds me of amnesia the dark descent! d'u get any of the ambient noises like the breathing from amnesia?

[kyllerunderworld]

@TobiasMakesNoise Total Chaos is a mod for Doom 2. But I think the mod is dead

[TobiasMakesNoise]

Ok, no, seriously, WHY would anyone put time into trying to make Doom 2 into Doom 3? That's like the opposite of what needs to happen with Doom
