This reverts commit 8fc9f1e5ef.
As I already feared, this does not work right. The entire linking/unlinking code is simply too fragile. So no protection here against inept tinkering.
(for some reason it was unable to figure out the overrides for 'lumpname' in the function g_level.cpp/CalcMapName, even though this is a very old function)
- DirectInput axes are now X first, Y second.
- Menu axes controls swapped/fixed.
- Added SDL DualShock3 buttons in menu actions.
- Fixed SDL mouse system cursor; it could appear in-game.
This is the last parameter for A_RadiusThrust() DECORATE function.
If it is omitted or none, then A_RadiusThrust will behave as usual.
If it is set for some species name, it witt thrust only that species.
Of course, these species should be +VULNERABLE to be thrustable.
* support for SSI container format - this is an obscure format used by a few Duke Nukem mods - added to have this subsystem identical between both engines.
* removed some dead wrapper code
* made the Open methods local to their implementations, this was never called virtually.
* new texture format: ANM - this reads the first frame of a Build-ANM movie as a texture.
* some preparations for indexed (paletted) rendering.
* optimization of the patch texture checker - do not read in the entire file if checking the initial header is sufficient for rejecting it.
* removed refreshFreq variable and related code. This only got into the backend because of stupid interpolation code in some of the Build games which has long been removed.
* save FixedBitArrays as base64 in savegames.
* allow indirections in the string table - by prefixing the language string with '$$' the remaining text is interpreted as another string label to resolve.
* constexpr in palette code, also replacing #defines with enums.
Backported from Raze - without this there is no way to implement sounds that can unload themselves, because the existing ChannelEnded function is called when the sound is still active.
If the loader is allowed to go on, these objects will be linked into game structures and may do unpredictable things before the loader has a chance to abort at the end.
Some people apparently have to toy around with the engine's innards without fully understanding them. :(
When properly used the saveguards should never be triggered.
