This is because FMapThing gets memset to 0 and changing that would cause more work than it is worth to keep the string. The only thing it is used for is the color for dynamic lights and those do not need case sensitivity so a name will just do as well, but require less adjustments elsewhere.
This gets called from several places, and the only one passing in potentially byte swapped values is P_LoadLineDefs.
All other uses of this function were essentially broken on PowerPC.
For some files that had the Doom Source license attached but saw heavy external contributions over the years I added a special note to license all original ZDoom code under BSD.
- replaced some uses of FRACUNIT with OPAQUE when it was about translucency.
- simplified some overly complicated translucency multiplications in the SBARINFO code.
- updated UDMF spec for player class and skill amount because the old menu limits no longer apply.
- fixed: FloorAndCeiling_LowerRaise needs to consider 4 args in maps to account for the Boom compatibility hack parameter.
SVN r3121 (trunk)
- merged all places where secrets are credited into one common function.
- added the Doom64 COUNTSECRET actor flag.
- fixed: AInventory::CreateCopy did not clear the COUNTITEM flag.
- fixed: Dropping an item did not increase the item count but the dropped item could still have the COUNTITEM flag. Now this flag gets cleared when the item gets picked up so that dropped items don't count a second time.
SVN r2826 (trunk)
- disabled writing the nodes with the dumpmap command. ZDoom doesn't need the nodes to load a map and this only worked if the original
map had standard nodes but trying to write out nodes loaded from any other format would have caused broken data.
SVN r2285 (trunk)
They are not needed anywhere else.
- Changed the HackHack hack for corrupt 256 pixel high textures that
FMultiPatchTexture only calls a virtual function instead of doing any
type checks of the patch itself.
- Cleaned up the constant definitions in doomdata.h.
- Moved the TEXTUREx structures from doomdata.h to multipatchtexture.cpp
because they are used only in this one file.
- Removed some more typedefs from r_defs.h and doomdata.h
- Moved local polyobject data definitions from p_local.h to po_man.cpp.
SVN r1012 (trunk)
texture definitions. HIRESTEX is still supported but deprecated.
- Removed all 16 bit values from texture manager.
- Changed: The texture manager now sorts all textures for a WAD by type
to avoid priority issues with HIRESTEX defined textures.
- Changed sidedef flag WALLF_ADDTRANS into a linedef flag because it is
always the same for both sides of a linedef. This also makes handling
this in the UDMF parser easier because the linedef parsing function does
not need to access the sidedef data.
- Added new ZDoom specific UDMF linedef and sidedef properties to map parser.
- Added new ZDoom specific UDMF sector properties to map parser.
- Added class definitions for new interpolators that are better
equipped to interact with the interpolated objects.
- Separated interpolation code into its own file r_interpolate.cpp.
- Added some simple customization options to the end game screens.
- Fixed: Polyobject detection in the internal node builder did not work
anymore due to some code rearrangement for UDMF map loading. To keep
it compatible between all map formats the THINGS lump of binary format
maps must be loaded before building the nodes. This also means that
the spawning itself can be done in the same function for all map types
(except Build) now.
- Changed 'Smooth mouse movement' menu option from m_filter to smooth_mouse
which is more what would be expected from this option.
- Fixed: Weapons and ammo items that were modified by Dehacked gave full
ammo when being dropped by monsters. To properly handle this the
handling of spawning Dehacked modified pickups was changed to use
the DECORATE replacement feature instead of hacking the spawn state
of the original item and calling a spawn function from there.
SVN r1001 (trunk)
definitions take precedence.
- Added base translation tables for UDMF compatibility maps which only should
handle the native line and sector types of each game.
- Turned the inactive SILENT_INSTANT_FLOORS define into a compatibility option
so that it can be (un)set in a map definition and the menu.
