Heretic for the PowerPC is a Heretic port for the Mac PowerPC.

Has added high-detail, extra memory allocation and support add-ons but no net play.

Heretic is a 3D first-person shooter in the same style as Doom and Hexen. It uses the same core engine as Doom, with a few modifications. It is the prequel to Hexen: Beyond Heretic, which was made available as a commercial release for the Macintosh back in 1995. Unfortunately, the original Heretic was never made for the Mac. I decided to port Heretic to complete the sequence and give Mac users the missing piece. This program will run both the shareware WAD file for Heretic (heretic1.wad) or the full commercial WAD file (heretic.wad).

What's New:
  • Although no one reported this, it was possible for Heretic to crash on startup if you didn't have a Help menu of any kind, i.e. it was turned off by some third-party utility.
  • Heretic now supports loading of add-on WAD files. To use them, simply drag the WAD files onto the Heretic application icon to launch it. Note that the WAD files can't be loaded once Heretic has been launched - they will only load if you drag them onto the application to start it up. It supports a total of 19 add-on files at once.
  • If you held down the "run" key and pressed "use artifact", Heretic would instead try to skip to the next item in your inventory. If you didn't have any more items, nothing would happen. This feature is disabled now, which means that assigning caps lock to run will allow you to use items consistently.
  • If you had assigned a joystick or mouse to use the "Direction Pad" in the InputSprocket setup, the controls became unplayable. This bug is fixed. However, I encourage you to only use the "Direction Pad" setup for non-analog joysticks like the Gravis GamePad. You'll have much better control with the mouse or an analog joystick if you use the "Forward/Backward" and "Left/Right" combinations.

    Requirements:
  • If you want to hear music, you need QuickTime 2.5 or later and the optional MIDI files.
  • If you want to use the mouse or a joystick, you need InputSprocket installed.
