The Linux backend looked like it didn't handle anything non-ASCII at all, but this all needs to be tested.
Windows will be a bit more work because it requires using the Unicode API for creating the main window.
- Fix zdoom.rc to show the actual git commit tag and id for the Product Version
- Made zdoom.rc "codepage 1252" compliant as dictated by the #pragma (if this needs changed the pragma should be updated, this was messing up the version strings in the final compile)
The script side cannot do anything useful with this, because most actions require parameters in global variables, so this is a first grade candidate for rogue mods to make the engine misbehave.
To make things easier, DBIGFONT, SBIGFONT and HBIGFONT will now be renamed in the lump directory to make things a bit easier to handle.
Another change is to make font folders atomic units to prevent cross-pollution between incompatible fonts. The only exception to this are the def* folders because they need to piece together their fonts from both zd_extra.pk3 and the IWADs.
It was only used to avoid traversing the list if all sequences were paused which is an exceptional situation.
On the other hand, the way it counted was not correct so rather than fixing it it seemed more appropriate to remove it entirely.
The BIGFONT system works in both Heretic and Hexen; however, as Doom and Strife still depend on a lump format, they lack it.
(Also renamed the “game-raven” directory to “game-heretic”—the lumps in that folder are made for the Heretic palette, and become riddled with artifacts when loaded in Hexen).
This is dpne as a two-stage approach. TXT_LOGTEXTxxx will always take precedence over the log lumps, and TXT_ILOGxxx will only replace the original IWAD content.
This is so that PWADs replacing these lumps don't get overridden by the default texts.
Select Release configuration explicitly because CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE doesn't work with MSBuild projects
Use long names for command line options of native build tools
Enable minimal verbosity for MSBuild
The added table may be overkill but this way the font engine is prepared for things to come.
Currently the text placement in the menu seems a bit broken, that's a task for later.
A multi-lump font can be created by putting all characters into a subdirectory of fonts/ with the intended name. Each character needs to be named by its character index as hex number.
So far this is only active for the predefined small fonts
One sector in an underwater area of KDIZD Z1M3 got tagged with an incorrect Transfer_Heights effect which caused render glitches in that area.
There were also a few AddSectorTag calls without first clearing the sector's tags leading to potentially undefined behavior.
