Talk:Voodoo doll

From Doom Wiki

There is another important use of the VooDoo Doll and that is to give a weapon to the player. The VooDoo is one a lift and when it lowers and collects the weapon it is placed in yoru hand.

This is used in Plutonia - MAP06 - "Baron's Lair" to give weapons initially when approaching the central flaoting box-like skull. The Voodoo Doll is located near the original cluster of revenants on starting

Also used in TNT, Evilution - MAP18, "Mill". There are 2 Voodoo Doll's

Leaving the Central Area give you the Chain Gun, IIRC Entering the final arena where the CyberDemon, gives you the plasma gun

[edit] ZDoom

This seems to differ in ZDoom... I was playing Plutonia on line (2 player) and when we got to Map 06, I (player 1) started as undead, but my partner didn't. I asked him to kill me, but when I restarted, I couldn't get the weapons from the center skullbox. Any idea of why this happens? I think ZDoom prevents Player Start things to be stacked, causing the player to start like an undead... any ideas? hfc2x 21:45, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Reference problem

"The PWAD selfdead.wad is possibly the earliest published map that contains a voodoo doll"  —  not so fast! [1]    Ryan W 02:30, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
