This is a weapon mod that does not touch the monsters in anyway. Well more of armor mod, or maybe half of both? Your armor/clothes is your main core of health and well being, your weapons are enchanted by what you wear They are not eternal, they will break eventually, and when they do, you are in trouble as going all naked makes it hard to handle guns if you wanna stay modest. Luckily there is plenty to choose from, but you can only wear one at a time, so sometimes you might need to strip on purpose. All weapons except chainsaw have been replaced with counter parts. Medikits and bonus shards give clothing scrap which repairs armor instead of restoring health Berserk, chainsaw, armors, megaspheres, radsuits, invulnerability and invisibility spheres have cloth replacements, tho the invulnerability one can be a bit more... aggressive clothing. All weapons have alt fires and some even have reload based specials, make sure to bind those and the mod specific strip button so you can pick up those new enchanting clothes. Free look is recommended as some guns might not properly behave with mere autoaim.

Highway Acceleroid Booster is a GZDoom gameplay mod where you play as a robot girl that's part car and part super fighting robot. Armed primarily with mobility, a series of battle chips for extra combat data, and a variety of utensils installed into her gauntlets, she zips from place to place to gather additional combat data. And to help out wherever she's needed, admittedly. Helping feels nice. Inspired by Mega Man X, gameplay feel is a little bit more cartoony and high-tech than usual, with some pretty outlandish weapons doing some silly functions.. Designed to act as a complement for sci-fi/space-age mapsets, the gameplay mod acts as a direct contrast with High Noon Drifter. Rather than being very simple and low-tech, this mod is a little bit more complicated and hi-tech. If you've been looking for a mod where you can play as a robot, android, gynoid, or you've been looking for something to compliment Stardate 20X7, this might be up your alley.
Nostalgia is a 32-level megawad for limit-removing source ports. It was released by Alex Decker (myolden) in August 2022 and combines vanilla-style aesthetics with modern map design philosophies. Most maps are smallish in size, with a focus on easy-to-medium difficulty and fewer than 100 monsters. While level geometry and texturing is intentionally kept simple, the wad contains many instances of environmental storytelling as well as occasional doomcute detailing. Each level in the wad is named after a metal song that came out prior to 2000. The midi soundtrack is assembled from various sources from inside and outside the Doom community, containing no bespoke tracks.
