Hey there. This may seem an odd question but I can't figure out how to use the green potions that I seem to be carrying. I just downloaded the mod and spent a couple hours getting things working but now that I am in the game I can't figure out how to use this potion.

Any tips? Thanks

Greetings and hope you are good.

That is 'E' to Throw Flechette which the controls can be edited in the options, hope this helps.

Also make sure you have LMB for primary attack and RMB for alt attack.

Thanks for visiting NZDOOM.

hello love the mod running into an issue with lan play where it gets desynced on the first level as soon as either player uses the teleporter to the final secret. we tried a few different commandline arguments and none of them worked. any suggestions? im also gettingn the following errors:

Script error, "BrutalHereticRPG_V6.0.pk3:voxeldef" line 30:
Sprite name "AKYYA0" is wrong size.

Greetings and hope you are good.

That's great that you setting up COOP, in order to diagnose this issue I need some more details. What source port are you using and what version? What are the specs of the units on LAN? What other mods if any did you allocate and what order? Did you use ZDL to organize any mods and what order on the host/clients? Did you allocate the included .ini?

I did test this on a 3 player and didn't encounter any desync so I'm confused as to why the desync occurs?

I will also diagnose the voxels and hopefully I should be able to fix those errors.

Please let me know ASAP.

ZDL is dead so we're using AceCorp Launcher 1.9.2 and GZDoom g4.11.3

The included ini doesn't seem to help. We tried with and without it. I attached a picture showing our config.

Host PC specs are:

Ryzen 5 5600x
16gb DDR4 CL14 4000mhz
Gigabyte Geforce RTX 3080ti

Connecting PC specs are:

Ryzen 5 3600x
32gb DDR4 3200mhz
Radeon 5700XT

Greetings and thanks for the detailed reply.

You have some beasty units there, so we can certainly rule out any performance issues, you also have the correct mod order so that's great to see. I do apologize for this as you shouldn't be having these issues so lets fix this. A note ZDL isn't dead, there's a brand new version but not released yet and ZDL has multiple options for multiplayer which acecorp does not.



We need to narrow this down and figure out the issue, could you please test by removing all the mods on the left side of the panel on both the host/client units leaving just Heretic.wad and try COOP again going through the portal, make sure you have legit versions of Heretic.wad and not wares.

If that infact does work with just the Heretic.wad, then just add Brutal Heretic V6 on both the host/client and re-test in COOP again going through the portal.

I guess this is the exact section, I timestamped this Youtube video.

Heretic - E1M1 Docks - Black Plague - All Secrets - 1080p 60fps - YouTube

A last request is do you have the previous version of Brutal Heretic V5? If not I can send you this version to test out and rule out any issues with V6, the voxel warnings were also present in V5 and we had a full COOP with zero issues, its just stating no sprites for these voxels which they are still rendered correctly with the cells colored but I'm looking into fixing these warnings.

Hope this helps and please reply back ASAP I really want to fix this, COOP is a great experience.

Hi, long time without posting here something haha.

I was looking at my Doom mod collection and I saw this mod as well, it was v5.0, so I downloaded the 6.0... I saw that you added some kind of extra to make the episodes continuous, right? I guess is to let us keep leveling without the reset from jumping to another episode... I assume that if I end last level from the last episode the game will teleport me to the first one from the second episode, or do we need to do something special?

Oh and I assume we keep our weapons and equipement, right? lol

Thank you great work, I did download Brutal Hexen too
EDIT: Btw
This is how I see some buttons on the forum, a bit hard to see what are for after a while without posting haha

Greetings Mr.SeriousCat, great to hear from you, yes long time no speak, hope you are well.

You are correct, it combines all 5 episodes into a single campaign, XP, weapons, items etc are carried over. It's highly recommended if you plan on going through all episodes as a recent review of Brutal Heretic on Youtube, the reviewer had difficulty on the expansion episodes (E4/E5) without the mod. One more to note is that without allocating this you wont reach a high enough level to unlock all weapons.

Also all the bugs you mentioned on earlier posts are fixed so many thanks for the feedback. Regarding the buttons on the forum, I cant see the screenshot you posted, did you attach the screenshot on the reply?

Hope this helps and enjoy some Brutal Heretic.
