BRUTAL HERETIC RPG (ZDL Edition) v2.2

[AshKarath]

I've thought about something for a while. All the weapons appear stretched ingame. The only solution I've found so far is changing the resolution to an old 4:3, with big black borders on both sides.
I know the game is ancient in game years, but I have hoped this could be solved.
My native is 1920x1080.
Any suggestions? It's not a big deal so I can live with it otherwise

And also.. Has anyone tried out Brutal Heretic combined with Episodic EX or something like that? Do they combine well? Does the XP gain need do be modified or something else?

Hello and thanks for the reply.

Yes the 'Episodic EX' mod combines all 5 episodes into one playthrough, I have it installed for coop but haven't fully tested it but all xp would sync over to the new episode.

Thanks again.

Assuming the leveling and experience code is the same as it was in the parent mod, it should carry over no problem.

I did a full playthrough solo the other day with Episodic EX and found no problems at all.

However, all the weapons still seem stretched. What do I do?

Great mod! Thanks a lot!

Minor issues:
Scale GUI options doesn't affect basic GUI, only fullscreen and alternative GUI, but there are no exp/lvl and flask info.
Torch in hand (key 0) still lowres (torch fuel bottle likely too).

Hello and thanks for the replies.

Regarding the weapon sprite ratio, I'll see if I can scale the weapon textures in 16:9.

Regarding the GUI, we have an ultra wide scaling of the HUD so hopefully be able to port it over to Heretic.

Thanks again.

Going to be an update soon, I fixed the lights ingame causing a slight slowdown with the beta versions of GZDoom.

Light interval values are now x10 in the beta versions so have to /10 on all light sources.

Also it seems to work epic in Vulkan mode, really nice and smooth FPS in heavy battles.

Can you re-upload it somewhere else? The download link isn't working for me.

[ZDL_800]

Just tested the link and it works fine.

Can I ask that you try again?

Just out of curiosity, but has the stats of the monsters been tweaked at all? Or is the doom wiki still a reliable source for monster hp? Thanks!

Yeah this really needs a MEGA host, uploadcenter is incredibly slow for me while MEGA downloads with absolutely 0 restriction, currently with a DL speed of 25Mbps and I'm downloading at 20KBps, it's saying it will take me 8 hours to download this.

Hello and thanks for the replies.

Download speed should be much faster now, any issues let us know.

Thanks again.
