          @backstander @ buzz. do you know why killing somebody on even the easiest difficulty on any of the doom, chex, heretic, etc. games on zdoom can be impossible. On say doom ii i can kill the first guy after a few shots but i can unload all my ammo on the next and nothing. Punch doesnt do anything at all on any game. Chex games and strife because you have a hand combat weapon they dont work at all so i get killed. I updated zdoom last night after the fix. So not sure if that did anything because i never got it working before.

            EDIT: i thought it was better. Read below next post.

            Ive been sitting here forever with this problem. Then i started a new game in doom ii from the menu while in a problem game and went to record it to show you. All of a sudden its working right in every game. I finally killed someone in strife and chex too.

              @backstander spoke too soon. It is worse on easy difficulties but still an issue

                    final doom evilution is completely unplayable on zdoom because you cant open doors or activate the buttons on the 2 pillars to even get out of the starting area. also playing between zdoom and lr-prboom the games are messed up bad on zdoom. on lr-prboom i can smash people and kill them really fast with a gun. not the case on zdoom

                      I haven't built my Pi yet, but it works just fine in the latest ZDOOM (and GZDOOM) on the computer. Is the ZDOOM port on the Pi a recent build/version?

                        @enderandrew looking on zdoom threads people have had this issue before and had to go back to an older version. The people on windows couldthen just update again and it would work. I had retropie 3.8.1 on my nes cart pi so i just downloaded zdoom without doing an update to the retropie setup script. Then i put that on my main pi. Works. Tried updating after that and no dice. So im just on the older version. Dont bother me though. It is working so i am happy.
