Uncle Rusty its great to hear from you! I'm ok having some bad days but who doesn't right, I hope you are good.
Thats great to hear you started up the updated mods, should be more fun with the new episodes. To celebrate the new Heretic+Hexen release we updated the ZDL Steam Edition to include Dual Mode (Light/Dark theme) and Grey Mode (Locked grey theme) Free to download so grab yourself the new ZDL v5.4.
Ok the new update isnt ready yet as we need to upscale to rest of the new sprites but I have finished the HUD for Brutal Hexen so its now fully scalable, when the update is out work will begin on Brutal Heretic to update the HUD etc.
Thanks so much for showcasing the issues with 32:9, look how bad and washed out gzdoom colors are and its way too bright. I can only replicate the resolution and I get like 0.1 FPS but thats all I need to debug the issue.
Also the HUD is stretched on Brutal Hexen 32:9 can you please try and force the aspect ratio to 21:9 try and get the HUD elements the same size dimensions as the screenshots here.
Thanks again Uncle Rusty for all the help, please get the new ZDL its free to download and please show me a screenshot of ZDL at 32:9!
Take care Uncle Rusty and hope to speak soon.
