Resurrect Command in Hexen with the fighter's head

Anakin S. · Post by **Anakin S.** » Fri Apr 21, 2006 10:44 pm

When I fell to my death (extreme death) as the fighter, I typed in 'resurrect' in the console and rose up like normal, but my health skyrocketed to 999, I could turn but couldn't move, and I saw my exploded corpse on the ground. I think there must be some special handling regarding the fighter's head popping off during the extreme death sequence.

There is special handling, this was already addressed in some manner just recently.

Just to be more specific, here it is from rh-log.txt:
April 16, 2006 (Changes by Graf Zahl)
- Fixed: A player that has no body (as in the head popped off in Heretic
and Hexen) must not be resurrected.

It is impossible to resurrect a player whose head popped off. There is no longer a body to resurrect which can cause ugly crashes. As such resurrecting in this situation has to be disabled.

Greatest quote ever.

I also noticed that when you type in 'resurrect', you're unable to use any weapons. Has this been fixed too?

Type in resurrect twice, and then you can use stuff.

This doesn't work for me in GZDoom.

That's because its not fixed yet there. It will be in the next version.
