Originally introduced in the Unity port of Doom, later included in the KEX port, this featured highlights to the player what weapons are currently available.
Check the official Doomworld Forums thread for this project.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Native | Is the Weapon Carousel natively supported on this port? |
| Animated | Does the Weapon Carousel animated smoothly when switching weapons? |
| Looping | Does the Weapon Carousel visually loop between the final and initial weapon slots?2 |
| DeHackEd | Is the entry Carousel Icon = "<lumpname>" supported on the Weapon DeHackEd definitions?1 |
Note 1: While this DeHackEd option can define custom icons in any compatibility level, it is mainly useful in ID24-compatible ports, where additional custom weapon definitions are possible.
Note 2: See the following screenshots for the looping visual.
