Uploader: [email protected] =========================================================================== Advanced engine needed : Zandronum 1.0 or above Primary purpose : Murder Simulator =========================================================================== Title : WhoDunIt: The Art of Deception Filename : whodunit.pk3 Release date : 11/30/2012 Author : Conflagrated, Theshooter7, TheMisterCat, Peanut, Zeberpal, et al. Description : Lies. Deception. Murder. "Who is the murderer? Some never find out, if he is cunning enough to elude them for long enough. He is normal just like the rest of us, if not a little bit too normal. He is you, and he is me. He is inside the walls, and he is waiting. Even more interesting is this: If the "murderer" simply blends in and waits, keeping his knife hidden and watching as the innocents off each other one by one, is he still the monster? Sometimes the "innocents" kill more than the "murderer" does. So who is sane? Don't think about it too long, or you'll become distracted enough for him (or me, or that other guy) to sneak up behind you. Good luck." -WhiteRabbit on "WhoDunIt" WhoDunIt is a custom gamemode for Zandronum that rewards the observant, and punishes the clumsy. The game starts with all the players spawning in various locales, armed with little but their fists and an array of melee weapons scattered around the levels. After a short while, one player is chosen as the Murderer. The Murderer's goal is simple: Murder everyone. His preferred method to deliver death? A sliver of metal between the vertebrae. The Murderer has to be cautious, though! For while the knife is the most efficient and satisfying method of taking out others, drawing it is very loud and visually obvious; Marking him as the largest threat in the room, usually ending with him in a corner getting his skull bashed in by 'The Innocents'. To make matters worse, all these deaths have left the Murderer with a constantly draining sanity, eventually losing it and committing suicide when unable to watch something squirm and die. Fortunately, the trademarked knife he carries isn't the only weapon at his disposal; Poisonous chlorine gas, remote cameras, smoke bombs, poisoned first-aid kits, and even Automated trip-wire shotguns allow The Murderer to manipulate and destroy his prey. But what happens when The Murderer blends in a little too well? What happens if somebody loses it and kills someone completely innocent? Two mistakes. That's all you get before you are removed from the game instantly. After an Innocent kills one Innocent, he is marked with a Yellow Aura, enabling other players to beat him to within an inch of his life before being allowed to venture with the others. Another mistake? You won't be heard from again... Worse still, The Murderer has a penchant for being able to find the careless, regardless of their location.

However, there are some cvars that can be set on the server end for a bit of control, and they are as follows: wdi_blacklist_rounds <amount> -- Sets the number of rounds ex-murderers cannot be the murderer for. (Default: 5) wdi_murd_healthbonus <amount> -- Sets the extra maximum health the murderer gets per player. (Default is 10) wdi_murd_maxbonus <amount> -- Sets the MAXIMUM health murderer can have. (So if you don't want him to have 400 health in a 32 player game, use this) (Default: 0/unlimited) wdi_safety_time <time> -- Sets the time, in seconds, that players have to setup before the murderer is chosen.(Default: 30) PLAYERS -- There are help graphics that can be shown if you press F1 while in game. However, due to an issue with Zandronum, only the first of four pages will show up, which just has general play info. If this is the case, start the game in single player, where all F1 pages should properly show. There is also a cvar that can be used, but A MAJOR WARNING: It has been reported to cause extreme performance problems when used, especially on lower-end machines. Use at your own risk. The cvar is: wdi_filmgrain_level <level> -- (CLIENT) Sets the type of film grain to use. 0: Off, 1: Coarse, 2: Fine. (Default: 0) Disable it if you begin to experience problems with it on. It will enable a cinematic-esque film grain effect. ABOUT WDI04: "CONFINEMENT" A.K.A. "WHY DOES THIS LOOK REALLY FAMILIAR? - Yes, WDI04 "Confinement" is a modification of map32 from Hellcore (hc092604.wad, 2004 Cacoward Recipient). Permission had been obtained from the authors of the map for use in this project with modifications to suit the gameplay needs and flush it out a bit. Some other tips and things to note: *If the game is really dark, try upping your brightness in the options menu. The maps were designed to be mostly dark and gloomy, but not to a degree where they wouldn't be fun to play on. As such, if visibility is a problem, turning up the brightness a notch or two should help. *OpenGL mode is practically required to play this mod to it's fullest extent. While 3D Floors have made their way into the software renderer at long last, this mod relies very heavily on dynamic lighting as well, with several maps consisting of almost nothing but dynamic lights to provide illumination. There are also a few items that utilize dynamic lights for their primary function. Therefore, without OpenGL mode, the already dark maps may become impossibly dark for players who do not use OpenGL. *Be sure to bind the new controls in the options menu. These will allow you to quickly use medkits when needed, or use particular murderer items. However, every item in the inventory is accessible by the normal inventory selection means, if one were to opt for that instead. Below is provided an alias which will ease with inventory selection: simply hold the 'q' key and the mouse wheel will select inventory items. Release to have it select weapons again. Modify it as seen fit. The alias: bind q "+invselect" alias +invselect "bind mwheelup invnext;bind mwheeldown invprev" alias -invselect "bind mwheelup weapnext;bind mwheeldown weapprev" *THIS WILL NOT WORK WITH BOTS! Well, it will work, but it'll often bug out because Zandronum's ACS treats bots a special way or something. In either case, the bots won't react or do anything in survival mode other than blindly run around, so it won't be much fun. Needless to say with that, this mod is intended for online multiplayer only. =========================================================================== MAP LIST =========================================================================== Title: Author(s) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- WDI01: Asylum Peanut WDI02: Now Museum, Now You Don't!
