Hexen uses the spawn height value from the mapthing_t structure to offset the item when floatbobbing. With proper gravity handling enabled this method doesn't really work so as a workaround ZDoom will now enable a hidden compatibility option when playing any map with a Hexen format MAPINFO so that any positive value in this field will make P_ZMovement revert to the original method of setting the items height (excluding the floatbob offset, of course.)
This also removes some code from P_NightmareRespawn that originate from the original Hexen method for floatbobbing which aren't needed anymore
- For maps like xtheateriii that expect non-blocking push lines to
activate when you are standing on them and run into a completely different
line, there is now this compatiblity.txt-only flag.
- When P_OpenMapData() is called by P_CheckMapData(), we don't actually
care if any required lumps are missing. This just means it isn't a valid
map, so don't abort with I_Error().
which should be set for player uses activation but are not.
- Added some developer mode messages for setlinespecial and clearlinespecial.
SVN r3437 (trunk)
ignored the Y locations of patches drawn on two-sided midtextures and always drew them at the
top of the texture. Added a compatibility flag.
SVN r3205 (trunk)
- Restored some original Doom behavior that received complaints from users:
* reactivated the old sliding against diagonal walls code and compatibility optioned it with COMPATF_WALLRUN.
* re-added the original hitscan checking code using a cross-section of the actor instead of the bounding box, compatibility optioned with COMPATF_HITSCAN.
SVN r2340 (trunk)
- extended compatibility text to allow changing line flags and setting line specials on specific linedefs.
- removed Strain MAP07 hack and replaced it by a clean 'clearlineflags' option.
- Added Doomo format translations for Sector_CopyScroller because this looks like something that might be useful for making
some Boom maps work without having to resort to compatibility.txt.
- added a compatibility setting for UAC Ultra MAP07 which exploited some undefined scrolling behavior in Boom.
(What lengths are we going to make sloppily created maps work? This entire commit was just to address this particular problem...)
SVN r2280 (trunk)
- added compatibility option to invert sprite sorting. Apparently Doom.exe
originally sorted them differently than most source port and on some maps
which depends on this it doesn't look right (e.g. Strain MAP13)
SVN r2031 (trunk)
- Added more things from Gez's experimental build:
* MBF grenade and bouncing code.
* Arch Vile ghosts emulation (only for compatibility.txt.)
* Several MBF related compatibility options.
SVN r1821 (trunk)
- Added more output to zipdir and a -q option to turn it off.
- Added -u option to zipdir to only recompress those files in a zip that have
changed.
- Added -d and -f options to zipdir. -d forces deflate compression, and -f
forces a write of the zip, even if it's newer than all the files it contains.
- Added support for bzip2 and LZMA compression to zipdir.
SVN r1468 (trunk)
maps in the compatibility list.
- Added compatibility settings for a few more levels in some classic WADs.
- Added spechit overflow workaround for Strain MAP07. This is highly map
specific because the original behavior cannot be restored.
- Added a check for Doom's IWAD levels that forces COMPAT_SHORTTEX for them.
MD5 cannot be used well here because there's many different IWADs with
slightly different levels. This is only done for Doom format levels to
ensure that custom IWADs for ZDoom are not affected.
- fixed: level.flags2 was not reset at level start.
- Fixed: Morph powerups can change the actor picking up the item so
AInventory::CallTryPickup must be able to return the new actor.
- Fixed: ACS's GiveInventory may not assume that a PlayerPawn is still
attached to the player data after an item has been given.
- Added a missing NULL pointer check to DBaseStatusBar::Blendview.
