Heretic was the first game to use the Doom engine outside of id. Produced by John Romero in cooperation of Raven Software, Heretic promises to be a great fantasy blastfest in a package! Fight off Gargoyles, Golems, Wraiths and Weredragons with your Dragonclaw, Phoenix rod, Hellstaff and Firemace! This game also introduces a new item system that's become a general must for most games, using with the familiar bracket keys. Items include Wings of Wrath, Polymorph Egg, Chaos Device, Disc of Repulsion, and everyone's favorite Tome of Power, that supercharges your weapons!

Description

Ever since I saw the lovely sprites for heretic weapons out there I knew I eventually had to make an enhancement mod for heretic's existing weapons. I then came across the corvus_to_hexen.wad* and loved the way it made heXen more appealing to us heretics! the sprites (I believe by eriance? correct me if wrong) include improved staff, goldwand, hellstaff and phoenix rod! Of course sprites are nothing but pretty pics without code, so I got decorating and the rest is history:

i quite like this mod of weapons, its great! :)
the new weapon-sprites look great and their ways of firing are neat :D

however it only seems to work in GZdoom and not zandronum :(
when trying to boot zandronum with it zandronum will instantly lock up during loading with a FATAL ERROR

could you perhaps look into fixing it so itll also work in zandronum?
would love to be able to use it in zandronum in combination with heretic++ and be able to use it for a coop game

.

also, the additional punch for gauntlets looks kinda odd imo,
cuz the glove doesnt look at all like the original gauntlets

and both staff and gauntlet alt-fire cuts off at side,
could you perhaps look into extending the sprites so they dont cut of when playing at a 16:9 resolution?
