other more important message types which have lower priority for some
reason.
- Added a menu option for show_messages after accidentally switching it
off far too often and wondering why no messages appear.
- Added crouching DoomPlayer sprites submitted by Enjay.
- Fixed DF_NO_CROUCH was not checked.
- Fixed: The intermission script parser had some of its cases in the
keyword parser incorrectly sorted.
- Fixed: atterm was still defined to take a STACK_ARGS function argument.
- Added an AltFlash state for weapons.
- Turned FloatSpeed into an actor property and changed the value to 5
for all floating Strife actors, as a comment in the source indicated.
(r114 below):
- Added GZDoom's code for Vavoom slope things because I wanted to test
something with a map from Silent Steel.
- Added nocrouch and allowcrouch MAPINFO commands and a DF_NO_CROUCH
dmflag.
- Added GZDoom's crouching code after cleaning it up so that adding
crouching sprites will be easier.
SVN r115 (trunk)
longer determined by game. Instead there's a new flag, MF5_BLOODSPLATTER
which is deciding what to do. To keep backwards compatibility this flag
is unset for projectiles in Doom and Strife and set for them in Heretic
and Hexen. The same applies to DECORATE but of course the flag can be
manipulated here.
- BLODxx sprites are now globally renamed to BLUDxx when not playing Doom.
This allows using the same states in every game, including the
Raven-specific blood actors.
- Gave the bullet puff and the axe blood masses of 5 so that the make small
splashes.
- Added A_Light(value) code pointer for DECORATE to generalize the weapon
light effect.
- Added 'noskillmenu' option to MAPINFO episode definitions. This is for
WADs that want to implement a skill selection level.
- Added APROP_ChaseGoal and APROP_Frightened actor properties for ACS.
- Added MF5_CHASEGOAL flag that makes monsters to go after their goal even
if they have a valid target.
- Fixed some issues with the changes to P_NewChaseDir I made to include
MBF's dropoff logic.
- Added a PowerFrightener powerup class. It seemed like such a waste to
have this cool feature but no means to use it in a decent fashion.
- Fixed: S_Init and S_ParseSndInfo should call atterm only once but not
each time they are called.
SVN r112 (trunk)
- Added string replacement option to obituary strings.
- Changed lock and pickup message handling so that it is either a real
string or a LANGUAGE identifier. The only reason I did the mixed format
in the first place were Hexen's lock messages but they have been
replaced by unique strings in the mean time so the feature isn't needed
any more.
- Added a flags parameter to TranslucentLine.
- Extended the second arg of Line_SetIdentification to set not only
ML_ZONEBOUNDARY but all 8 bits of the third byte in the flag word.
This allows a relatively simple means of setting all the new flags
directly.
- Moved ML_ZONEBOUNDARY to doomdata.h so that it is in the same place as the
other line flags.
- Fixed: Strife's teleport swirl didn't loop its animation.
- Fixed: Strife's rat is not supposed to be shootable.
SVN r110 (trunk)
string. With strings being passed as names this is unsafe.
- Removed unused parameter types from the function parameter parser for
DECORATE.
- Changed: All actor name parameters in DECORATE are now passed as
FNames, not as strings.
- Fixed: The MAPINFO parser stored the RedirectType as a type pointer.
But at this point DECORATE hasn't been read yet so this was limited to
the internal classes.
- Fixed: TXT_NEED_IDCARD wasn't terminated with a ';'.
- Fixed: Strife's DeadRebel was missing its DoomEdNum.
- With names as type identifiers it is no longer necessary to remap
the monster types to internal constants in A_BossDeath.
- Fixed: A_BossDeath got the string from a name - just to get a name from
the string. Using the name directly is sufficient.
SVN r103 (trunk)
- Removed doom.x, heretic.x and strife.x from the SVN repository. These
are generated files.
- Fixed: A_PainDie has to check whether a valid target exists before
calling IsFriend.
- Fixed: FDecalLib::FindAnimator needs a signed counter to work properly.
May 1, 2006 (Changes by Graf Zahl)
- Added support for game specific pickup messages, if only to be able
to define Raven's invulnerability item in DECORATE.
- Removed A_TreeDeath because it is no longer used.
- Fixed: When picking up a PowerupGiver for an active powerup the
blend color and the duration were transferred to a temorary item
and never took effect. They have to be trnasferred to the newly created
powerup item before trying to give it to the player, not afterward.
- Made the colormap of the InvulnerabilitySphere item specific.
The base power class still needs to have its color adjusted
per game though and since Raven's invulnerability item is used in both
Hexen and Heretic it can't define its own colormap/blend.
- Separated the invulnerability colormaps from the game being played
and made them item specific. They can also be specified as regular
blend colors in DECORATE now.
- Converted a_hereticarmor.cpp and most of a_doomartifacts.cpp,
a_hereticartifacts.cpp and a_heretickeys.cpp to DECORATE.
- Changed the Soulsphere to be a real health item with the Dehacked
modifications made in d_dehacked.cpp as for most other items which
need to be adjusted.
- Added IF_BIGPOWERUP flag to AInventory to expose the RESPAWN_SUPER
dmflag to DECORATE. Also removed the now obsolete ShouldRespawn methods
from AInvulnerabilitySphere and ABlurSphere.
- Converted a_splashes.cpp to DECORATE.
- Converted most of a_debris.cpp to DECORATE.
SVN r73 (trunk)
- Fixed: StreamSong::SetVolume should check the m_stream pointer. This can
happen when a TimiditySong doesn't use FMOD and outputs the sound itself.
- Fixed: 'use' sector actions were using the incorrect sector on several
occasions.
- Added a wi_noautostartmap CVAR and a noautostartmap intermission option
that force the user to manually end the 'entering level' page.
SVN r70 (trunk)
- Fixed the issues with .96x's railgun code and added it to the current
version.
- Fixed: Setting of the friendly Minotaur's angle was inconsistent and
could cause it to move backwards in a féw situation.
- Fixed: The minotaur did checks for type by checking for the MF_FRIENDLY
flag, not by checking for the actor class. That made it impossible to
spawn friendly 'normal' minotaurs.
- Moved a few virtual methods which are only applicable to the friendly
minotaur to AMinotaurFriend.
- Fixed: The friendly minotaur checked the master's health instead of
the target's when deciding whether to switch targets. Replaced with
MF4_NOTARGETSWITCH.
- Fixed: maybedrawnow must not draw the console unless the background
texture has been set up.
SVN r66 (trunk)
STlib_drawNum(), and FDoomStatusBarTexture::DrawToBar() should add
the textures left offset to the x coordinate before drawing.
These fix Twice Risen's status bar.
- Changed: VPrintf now uses string.VFormat(), instead of vsprintf().
SVN r53 (trunk)
ParseActorProperties().
- Fixed: The decorate FindFlag() function returned flags from ActorFlags
instead of the passed flags set.
- Fixed: The CHT_CHAINSAW, CHT_POWER, CHT_HEALTH, and CHT_RESSURECT needed
NULL player->mo checks.
- Fixed: The "give all" command didn't give the backpack in Doom, and it
must give the backpack before giving ammo.
- Fixed: P_SetPsprite() must not call the action function if the player is
not attached to an actor. This can happen, for instance, if the level is
destroyed while the player is holding a powered-up Phoenix Rod. As part
of its EndPowerup() function, it sets the psprite to the regular version,
but the player actor has already been destroyed.
- Fixed: FinishThingdef() needs to check for valid names, because weapons
could have inherited valid pointers from their superclass.
- Fixed: fuglyname didn't work.
- Fixed: Redefining $ambient sounds leaked memory.
- Added Jim's crashcatcher.c fix for better shell support.
- VC7.1 seems to have no trouble distinguishing between passing a (const
TypeInfo *) reference to operator<< and the generic, templated (object *)
version, so a few places that can benefit from it now use it. I believe
VC6 had problems with this, which is why I didn't do it all along. The
function's implementation was also moved out of dobject.cpp and into
farchive.cpp.
- Fixed: UnpackPixels() unpacked all chunks in a byte, which is wrong for the
last byte in a row if the image width is not an even multiple of the number
pixels per byte.
- Fixed: P_TranslateLineDef() should only clear monster activation for secret
useable lines, not crossable lines.
- Fixed: Some leftover P_IsHostile() calls still needed to be rewritten.
- Fixed: AWeaponHolder::Serialize() wrote the class type in all circumstances.
SVN r20 (trunk)
- Fixed: AExplosiveBarrel should have MF2_MCROSS set.
- Fixed: Passing 0 numrays to A_BFGSpray should default to 40.
- Fixed: New A_JumpIfCloser() function.
- Future-proofing: thingdef.cpp/FindState() allows the 2.1 names for
SwitchingDecorations.
- Fixed: ASwitchingDecoration declared itself as deriving from AActor instead of
ASwitchableDecoration.
- Fixed: AWeaponHolder::Serialize() did not call its supermethod.
