LOX Weapons
Super Blaster: The alternate blaster. Fires a red bolt with a sparkling red trail and does quite a lot of damage. Uses 5 cells per shot.
Flare Gun: Another alternate to the blaster. Fires a flare into the air that will slowly go to the ground.
Sniper Gun: The alternate shotgun. Fires a very powerful bolt that usually gibs your opponent, but it's very slow to reload and takes 5 shells per shot.
Explosive Shotgun: The alternate shotgun. Fires an explosive shell at whatever you aim at.
Explosive SuperShotgun: The alternate supershotgun. Like the supershotgun but fires explosive shells instead.
Freeze Gun: The alternate supershotgun. Freezes your opponent in place so that you can dispatch them with conventional weaponry. Or just freeze them to death, if you like. The more you freeze them, the longer they stay frozen. Uses 10 cells per shot.
Machine Rocket Gun: The alternate machinegun, and everyone's favorite it seems. Instead of bullets, this fires a steady stream of rockets. They're not as powerful as normal rockets, but then you can't bombard a whole area with normal rockets. Uses 2 bullets per shot.
Burst-fire machinegun: If you have the regular machinegun selected, "cmd firemode" will switch between fully-automatic mode (the usual) and a new burst-fire mode. It'll shoot 6 bullets in a quick burst. Surprisingly effective!
Nailgun: Just as the name says. You get to fire nails at people. Hehehe. have fun and nail your enemies to death.
Explosive Chaingun: Like the chaingun but fires explosive bullets rather than the regular bullets.
Streetsweeper: The alternate chaingun. Fires a steady stream of shotgun shells. Tends to clear the way -- just charge through a group of enemies and watch them disappear.
Explosive Streetsweeper: The alternate chaingun. Fires a steady stream of shotgun explosive shells. Tends to clear the way -- just charge through a group of enemies and watch them disappear.
SuperBlastersweeper: Another alternate chaingun. Fires a steady stream of superblaster blots.
Freezersweeper: Another alternate chaingun. Fires a steady stream of freezer blots.
Grenadesweeper: Another alternate chaingun. Fires a steady stream of regular grenades.
Bazookasweeper: Another alternate chaingun. Fires a steady stream of regular grenades.
Railgunsweeper: Another alternate chaingun. Fires a steady stream of rails. One of the lopez's and Gametokens favorite weapons. It's a shower of death on your enemies.
Chunk Gun: Another alternate chaingun. Do you guys remember the nice gib gun back in quake. Well because of Z'ha'dums insistance we had to bring it back but with a twist. Shoot your enemies or shoot the gibs on the ground. When someone gets hit by them or steps on them they will get infected and hurt. This is a great weapon to isolate a room with.
Flamesweeper: Another alternate chaingun. This is an improved version of the flamethrower. It has a shorter range but causes more damage.
Durgsweeper: Like the Durg gun but in sweeper form instead.
Snipersweeper: Well since we had the railgunsweeper this we couldn't leave this one out now could we?
Sticking Grenadesweeper: Like the grenade sweeper but fires sticking grenades instead.
darKMajick grenades: The alternate grenades.
  • o Cluster grenade: Explodes into several other grenades.
  • o Rail bomb: Explodes into several railgun shots.
  • o Plasma grenade: Explodes into a BFG shot.
  • o Napalm grenade: Explodes into a bunch of fire and burning explosions.
  • o Shrapnel grenade: Explodes into a bunch of flaming shrapnel.
  • o Cataclysm device: Has to be seen to be believed. Explodes like an atomic bomb, complete with a shockwave that tends to kill everything.
  • o Plasma Cluster grenade: A virtual tree of death.
  • o Freeze grenade: Like the Rail bomb but shoots freeze bolts instead.
  • o Teleport grenade: Teleports you where ever you aim it. Though be warned using it as a normal hand grenade will cause you pain. Use it to telefrag your favorite LOX player.
  • o Homer grenade: Will launch a grenade that when it explodes will launch 4 weak homing rockets.
  • o Rocket grenade: Will launch a grenade that when it explodes will launch 4 weak rockets.
  • o Blindness Grenade: Will launch a grenade that when it explodes will blind anyone in a certain radius.
  • o Positron Grenade: Will launch a grenade that when it explodes will create the positron ball of fire

Bazooka: The alternate grenade launcher. Instead of lobbing grenades, it fires them in a straight line. Like the grenade launcher, it fires whatever type of grenade you selected last.
Sticking Grenade: Use this alternate for the grenade launcher to launch any of the DM grenades that will stick to whatever surface they hit, and I mean whatever surface, yes this does mean players too.
Buckyball Launcher: This alternate grenade launcher will fire buckyballs similar to the buckyballs in the chaos mod.
Double Impact: Like the grenade launcher but fires two grenades instead of one.
Homing Rocket Launcher: The alternate rocketlauncher. Aim in someone's general direction and fire; it'll do the rest, we really mean it.
Skipper Homing Rocket: Another alternate rocketlauncher. Does anyone remember the original Wing Commander? We did, and we recreated the skipper torpedos from the game. Basically these bad boys will cloak and uncloak until they hit an enemy. But watch out they have a mind of their own and will chase you if provoked.
Guided Missile: Another alternate to the rocket launcher. When you fire this rocket you will chase the rocket and guide it with your mouse. Another camper killer weapon.
Spiral Rocket Launcher: This is another alternate to the rocket launcher. It shoots three rockets. There is the main rocket in the center while the other two spiral around the first. It makes for an interesting effect.
Plasma Rifle: The alternate hyperblaster. Fires a beam that you can wave around; it tends to fry anything it touches.
Lightning gun: When you use this alternate to the hyperblaster you can shock your enemies to death. But bewarned, do not, and I say, do not jump into watery areas with this weapon.
Icecube gun: Another alternate to the hyperblaster. The more you hold it down the more damage it will do. It is really a cool gun.
Durg Gun: Another alternate to the railgun, Drop Your Gun. Shot this at your enemy and they will drop their current weapon. Ever get sick of those people who use the railgunsweeper all the time, well here's your chance.
FBFG: An alternate to the BFG10K. When it shoots it's lasers it will freeze the people that it hits instead of killing them
Vacuum Maker: Another alternate to the BFG. When you use this you can bring in anything that is not attached to the ground. When I say everything I mean everything.
Energy Vortex: Launch this and run, very, very fast. Anything that gets within its radius will get sucked in and crushed. It's pretty uncomfortable.
Disruptor: All I have to say is when you see the black spots run away.
Sonic Railgun: Another alternate to the railgun. The longer you hold down the attack button the more damage it will do. There is a damage cap though of 250 points.
Kaminit Gun: When someone gets hit by this weapon their Kam. sequence will get initiated. LOL.
Wall Piercing Railgun: Ever get mad cause someone decides to hide behind a wall when you want to rail them? Well now you can get them with this railgun.
Flame Thrower: The alternate railgun. It has a longer range than the flamesweeper but it causes less damage. Here are the specifics (partly from the Napalm mod text file by Patrick Martin):
Laser Tripwires: Much like the Duke Nukem 3D laser-tripped grenades. Set up a darKMajick grenade to fire when they walk through a laserbeam. The wall-mounted (floor-mounted, ceiling-mounted, door-mounted, whatever) grenade can also be shot at until it blows up. Takes 5 cells, plus the grenades.
Tractor Beam: When all else fails, use The Force. Pull player or monster toward you or push them away.
Kamikaze: When all else *really* fails. This isn't entirely a weapon, since it kills you, so it is intended for deathmatch only. It sends a big explosion from where you die...kinda like strapping a huge timebomb on your chest and setting it off.
Features
Swinging Grappling hook: This is not a glorified flying machine, like the grapples in other mods. Not only do you swing around as you use it, but you can seriously hurt yourself if you use it wrong. You can can also make the line grow or shrink at will.
Decoy: Sort of like the Hologram in Duke3D, except it shoots at players.
Scanner: Track players down in DM. (LOX MODIFICATION) Well the original scanner was pretty good, but now we made it better. It is relocatible now. If you just use the scanner as is it will stay in the center but, if you do scanner you will be able to relocate the scanner. When it is at the original position it's coordinates are 0,0.
Jetpack: This replaces the quad. (Who needs quad damage with all these heavy weapons? Right.) Will let you fly, but it's got all the problems of a real jetpack: you have to work at it to avoid slamming into walls and so on.
Lasersight: A little red ball will dance in front of you, showing you where your gun is pointed. It'll glow brighter once it finds a target. But be careful, everyone else can see it too.
Sniper Zooming: Press F11 to cycle through views and f10 to switch back to your normal view as a sort of a "panic button".
Night Vision: this only works right in GL (3dfx) mode.
Cloak: This essensially nullifies the homing weapons and the scanner. If you use this command it will hide you from the scanner and make it so the homing weapons don't home on you. But your homing weapons will also not home on the other players as well.
Detonate: Bind this command to a key. Use the command whenever you want to detonate an explosive.
Explosive: Bind this command to a key. Whenever you want to use it press the bound key and then fire from the grenade launcher. You can only have one grenade out at a time and when you fire a second grenade the old grenade will detonate.
Invisibility: This is our second in the cloaking family. When you use it you become invisible to your opponents but your blip is still on the scanner and the homing weapons can still home on you. This is the ultimate snipper tool.
Flashlight: Ever have problems with a camper hiding out in the dark, camping out and sniping everyone that he sees? Well with this you can find them and put a stop to them.
Check Stats: Have you ever wanted to know how healthy your enemies are? Well know you can know by using the checkstats command. By using this command you will be able to know how much health and armor you enemies have, and how far away they are from your current location.
Rangefinder: This is a permanent addition to the quake2 hud. By using this, nice little tool, you'll be able to tell how far away your target is and how much of a lob you need to use to hit them with your Plasma Cluster grenade.
Player Id: Just point your crosshairs at an enemy and you'll get their name, model and skin that they are using.
Angels
  • Revenge Factor: Imagine, you are the person with the highest frag and every- body is looking for you, not because they miss you. But because you were the last person to kill them and because you are the person with the highest frag count. Sounds like fun huh. If you frag the person who fragged you last its worth two frag points to you. If you frag the person with the most frags then they are worth three frag points. So listen up kiddies this is where it gets fun. If the person with the most frags was also the person who fragged you last and then you frag them you get a whooping five frags. Sounds like fun huh? Well that should put an end to those pesky campers.
  • Angel of Death: A small glowing spirit orbits you constantly. Whenever you fire, it fires too, in whichever direction you're facing effectively doubling your firepower (at the cost of double ammo use, of course).
  • Angel of Life: A different small glowing spirit orbits you, picking up any items you pass by.
  • Angel of Mercy: Yet another spirit. This one intercepts as many incoming projectiles as it can, rendering them harmless.
  • Angel of Frost : A cool new angel that will make your opponents freeze in their tracks. Let this little help loose and it will freeze anyone who comes close to you but watch out, it may mistake you for an enemy sometimes.
  • Angel of Plague: Use this angel to make yourself the head of the game. Watch as this angel touches to infect other players. While infected the players will be inflicted with damage.
  • Angel of Flame: With this angel you can be hot, really hot. Just light this angel up and you can burn all of your opponents up.
  • Angel of Horror: Ever want to scare the begezuz out of your opponents, well with this angel you can.
  • Angel of Blindness: Let this angel rip and your enemies will never see that single railshot coming at them.
  • Angel of Revenge: If you die you might want to activate this little toy. Next time you meet that person the angel will take 50% of their life away.
  • Angel of Unfreeze: Don't you hate it when you get frozen? Well now with this little baby you can get unfrozen.

Other Items
Fake death: Have you ever wanted to play dead? Well now you can.
Day-Night System: You can now simulate the passing of time in WOD:LOX by enabling this feature in the DMFLAGS. A full rotation is 13 min long.
Height: Ever want to know if that jump from one height to a lower height will hurt you? well now you can see how high up in the air you are.
Sweeper Fire Mode: Ever wondered what would happen if you could increase the firerate of the railgunsweeper well, now you can. But if you increase the speed in which the sweepers fire you will use more ammo and also will increase the temperature of the weapon which might cause it to explode.
Ver: Shows the version of the game
LogPlayers: This command will log the current players in the game, their ips, pings, current map, etc. This is useful for logging those pesky players who want to spoof peoples names.
Airstrike: Just point and paint a target and let the flyboys take care of the rest. They will pound the painted location with 10 rockets. But watch out they can be intercepted.
Tracker: Well we did it again, we added a WoD:LOX exclusive feature. Now you might be asking yourselves, what is so original about the trackers, aren't they just like normal turrents? Well no they're not. When you drop one it will look like a skull gib, depending on what weapon you were using at the time is what it will shoot.
Anti-Camper: Ever get really tired of all those campers? Well I have a solution for you. When you set the dmflag to enable this feature campers will have one warning before they are executed by the mod. Campers beware.
Holoquad: Ever want to fool your opponents? Ever want a way to lure them out into the open with something as tempting as quad damage? Well guess what, now you can. Just use the 'holoquad' command to drop a fake quad damage and let the fun begin.
Armor
Slug Armor: Ever get tired of those people who always use the railgun sweeper? Well now with this new armor you can enjoy yourself at their expense. You have a 300 to 1 chance of getting this armor. When you do get the armor those people who do abuse the railgun- sweeper will get a nice surprise.
Cell Armor: Ever get tired of those people who always using the positron or freezer? Well now with this new armor you can enjoy yourself at their expense. You have a 300 to 1 chance of getting this armor. When you do get the armor those people who do abuse the positron and freezer will get a nice surprise.
Shell Armor: Same as Slug and Cell armor but protects against shell weapons.
Bullet Armor: Same as Slug and Cell armor but protects against bullet weapons.
Grenade Armor:Same as Slug and Cell armor but protects against Grenade weapons
Rocket Armor:Same as Slug and Cell armor but protects against Rocket weapons
