Brutal Doom/PB Fire Bug Or My PC??

Post by DutchDoomGuy »

Ive noticed something and i cant seem to fix it not on my end...
i hope its the mod and not my pc but its kinda of anoyying
well if i play the Brutal Doom mod or Project Brutality and if i use my
flamethrower on a cacodemon the cacodemon soposed to flash on fire well
sometimes it flashes on fire but it also shows these like 8 bit colors?
its like the sprites turned inverted or something it shows lots of blue and yellow and stuff while its on fire
only those 2 mods does it also ive tried different video drivers its also not my gpu since its pretty much brand new like 2 weeks old

has any one noticed anything like this??

yes im using opengl
is this normal or?

Edit:
Well i guess its a bug...
Because i turned on my raspberry pi and tried it there and it happened there too..
Its not happening constantly but if u shoot a cacodemon on fire and its in the burning face sometimes the flash will go inverted color itll flash it quickly i happens on every wad even the base game doom and only with this mod..
I know u do mods as well but maybe u can pass it along to mark so he can take a look at it? Its quit bugging me ha

If u wanna know what i mean spawn in a cacodemon and use your flamethrower and put him on fire then watch if it doesnt happen on ur first try try again it does happen 90% of the time tho on cacos..
What does it fly away burning and if the bug happens the color flash goes inverted with lots of blue/yellow green colors looks wrong

Oh it also happens on software render becauze i tried my computer which i use opengl and i tried my raspberry pi 3 which uses software both it happens so its clearly a bug then?

I'm not really sure what it is you're describing, because it sounds like it should be obvious but I have not seen it happen myself. Are you able to record video of this happening somehow?

Do you mean cacos turning like these?




If it is, that's alright. That's how burning cacodemon sprite look like inside the Brutal Doom sprite data. I agree they look ugly, as if your video is corrupted.

It seems that only used in version 20. The latest beta Mark shared on moddb use cacos pain sprites instead.

Also OP, it would be helpful if you can share what version of GZDoom you are using and what version of Brutal Doom you play.

Wow those sprites look like total ass, no offense to the "author." That looks more like someone opened them in MS Paint and just randomly placed pixels around than a burned Caco. :|

Maybe they have thought that the flames and effects will cover it anyway. But yeah, could've used a more better sprite and made it that the caco look like it was actually burned.
