Hideous Destructor | Bastardos: Episode One | No Failure Runs | Part 1
17From the far distant future of Combine rule to the old uncharted wild western frontier. The themed runs I do sure go places, hmm? Yes, that's right! We're going full sixshooters up in this tactical hootenanny! HDest's quickswap mechanics are going to be on full display here, not quite the dual wield of other games/mods, but it's just right for this kind of experience.
I think I might've spoken about my earlier attempt at running Fistful of Doom and how it's not doable with HDest simply because of ancient mapping techniques that caused "windows" to have so much free space for enemies to shoot you while you can't even see them. Thankfully this mod here doesn't have too much of that, using slightly more modern techniques to have proper windows even in its more open ended maps. I decided then I would wiretear this at once and cobble up some stuff to fit the theme. Even found myself a lever action mod loaded in .355 for long range purposes.
Now, I must admit, not all the addons I use have been linked below. I did have to cobble up a bunch of reskins and stuff for weapons, items, UaS itself (seeing a LAM would be weird in the 1900s, no?), along with the enemies and mugshot. I was fortunate to find an addon to have all basic zombies use revolvers, but even then I still had to reskin those guys as well. Due to the hodgepodge nature of the cobbling process resulting in half the things unreplaced (you'll note I'm not gonna be firing a single automatic weapon in this run aside from maybe the HERP) and uncredited, a release is unfortunately out of the question. Still though, the stuff linked below should get ya just about close enough.
