Hexen mod support
Posted: Mon Mar 11, 2019 8:44 pm
Hello,
There are some great mods for the original Hexen/expansion that allow for true widescreen (16:9) support along with high resolution (4x upscaled) spites and textures.
Widescreen patch:

HD textures:

The problem is when running the two together there is a conflict and I was told by the creator that the only way to properly fix the issue would be to have the GZDoom developers adapt the code to solve the issue.
Here are examples of the current problems I am talking about:
HD textures WITHOUT widescreen patch:

HD textures WITH widescreen patch:

HD Textures WITH widescreen patch but WITHOUT HUD/weapon textures:

Clearly the bottom image is how things should be displayed, however with the HD HUD/weapons textures of the first image.
If this could be addressed it would essentially allow everyone that plays on modern hardware with the most common 1920x1080 (16:9) resolution the best Hexen experience possible while still staying true to vanilla game play.
Any chance to have this resolved in the future?
Cheers.
