installed. If so, it checks your SteamApps directory for any IWADs you may
have purchased through Steam and adds any it finds to the list of available
IWADs you can play. This means that if you bought your id games through
Steam, you can just extract ZDoom anywhere you like and run it without doing
any additional setup.

be surprised if it doesn't work.
- Reorganized the network startup loops so now they are event driven. There is
a single function that gets called to drive it, and it uses callbacks to
perform the different stages of the synchronization. This lets me have a nice,
responsive abort button instead of the previous unannounced hit-escape-to-
abort behavior, and I think the rearranged code is slightly easier to
understand too.
- Increased the number of bytes for version info during D_ArbitrateNetStart(),
in preparation for the day when NETGAMEVERSION requires more than one byte.
- I noticed an issue with Vista RC1 and the new fatal error setup. Even after
releasing a DirectDraw or Direct3D interface, the DWM can still use the
last image drawn using them when it composites the window. It doesn't always
do it but it does often enough that it is a real problem. At this point, I
don't know if it's a problem with the release version of Vista or not.
After messing around, I discovered the problem was caused by ~Win32Video()
hiding the window and then having it immediately shown soon after. The DWM
kept an image of the window to do the transition effect with, and then when
it didn't get a chance to do the transition, it didn't properly forget about
its saved image and kept plastering it on top of everything else
underneath.
- Added a network synchronization panel to the window during netgame startup.
- Fixed: PClass::CreateDerivedClass() must initialize StateList to NULL.
Otherwise, classic DECORATE definitions generate a big, fat crash.
- Resurrected the R_Init progress bar, now as a standard Windows control.
- Removed the sound failure dialog. The FMOD setup already defaulted to no
sound if initialization failed, so this only applies when snd_output is set
to "alternate" which now also falls back to no sound. In addition, it wasn't
working right, and I didn't feel like fixing it for the probably 0% of users
it affected.
- Fixed: The edit control used for logging output added text in reverse order
on Win9x.
- Went back to the roots and made graphics initialization one of the last
things to happen during setup. Now the startup text is visible again. More
importantly, the main window is no longer created invisible, which seems
to cause trouble with it not always appearing in the taskbar. The fatal
error dialog is now also embedded in the main window instead of being a
separate modal dialog, so you can play with the log window to see any
problems that might be reported there.
Rather than completely restoring the original startup order, I tried to
keep things as close to the way they were with early graphics startup. In
particular, V_Init() now creates a dummy screen so that things that need
screen dimensions can get them. It gets replaced by the real screen later
in I_InitGraphics(). Will need to check this under Linux to make sure it
didn't cause any problems there.
- Removed the following stubs that just called functions in Video:
- I_StartModeIterator()
- I_NextMode()
- I_DisplayType()
I_FullscreenChanged() was also removed, and a new fullscreen parameter
was added to IVideo::StartModeIterator(), since that's all it controlled.
- Renamed I_InitHardware() back to I_InitGraphics(), since that's all it's
initialized post-1.22.

ga_autosave, write DEM_CHECKAUTOSAVE to the net stream. When this is
processed, it will check if it's okay to do an autosave. If it is, it writes
DEM_DOAUTOSAVE to the net stream, which the sets gameaction to ga_autosave.
Essentially, about half of the functionality was moved out of G_DoAutoSave()
and into Net_DoCommand().
- Minor changes to OS detection: The os_WinNT enumeration has been renamed to
os_WinNT4, since every new OS coming out of Microsoft these days is
essentially NT. NT 5.2 and 6.0 are now properly identified as "Windows
Server 2003" and "Windows Vista" respectively, and any unknown NT versions
Microsoft introduces in the future will now be displayed as "Windows NT"
instead of "Windows 2000" if the minor version is 0 and "Windows XP" if the
minor version is non-0. Win32s detection has also been removed. Presumably
if somebody is foolish enough to try to run this on Windows 3.x with Win32s,
it won't even load due to missing DLLs.
- Fixed: Demos with NETD chunks should not set netgame to true unless they
have more than one player. And since netdemo is ignored if netgame is
false, it doesn't need to set that either.
- Fixed: FTexture::GetScaled* functions did not check for scale values of 0.
SVN r354 (trunk)
could not be saved for some reason.
- Added the writeini console command to write the config file, optionally
specifying a specific file name for it.
- Fixed: "Multiplayer" demos that only had one player were not played back
properly because the demo playback code only checked the number of players
to determine if it should be played as a netdemo.
SVN r333 (trunk)
- The stat meters now return an FString instead of sprintfing into a fixed
output buffer.
- NOASM is now automatically defined when compiling for a non-x86 target.
- Some changes have been made to the integral types in doomtype.h:
- For consistancy with the other integral types, byte is no longer a
synonym for BYTE.
- Most uses of BOOL have been change to the standard C++ bool type. Those
that weren't were changed to INTBOOL to indicate they may contain values
other than 0 or 1 but are still used as a boolean.
- Compiler-provided types with explicit bit sizes are now used. In
particular, DWORD is no longer a long so it will work with both 64-bit
Windows and Linux.
- Since some files need to include Windows headers, uint32 is a synonym
for the non-Windows version of DWORD.
- Removed d_textur.h. The pic_t struct it defined was used nowhere, and that
was all it contained.
SVN r326 (trunk)
using duplicate DoomEdNums and will affect all attempts to spawn the
replaced actor. However, because this happens for all spawns and not just
at map load, the replacing actor must be compatible with the replaced
actor, which means that an actor can only serve as a replacement for one
of its baseclasses. For example, if you want to use a modified imp, you can
use this DECORATE:
actor MyImp : DoomImp replaces DoompImp
{
// Put changed properties here
}
- New: The IWAD dialog now remembers the last IWAD you picked and
automatically highlights it the next time you run the game. This also
applies if you check "Don't ask me this again": The IWAD selected will be
the one that gets automatically loaded, not the one located first. (Using
the -iwad parameter will not change the default IWAD.) In addition, you
can now bring the dialog up even if you disable it by holding down SHIFT
during startup.
- Changed ExtractFilePath() and ExtractFileBase() to return FStrings instead
of writing to a provided output buffer. ExtractFileBase() can also
optionally keep the file's extension in the result.
- Removed the -heapsize parameter entirely. The informational message should
no longer be needed.
- Removed -maxdemo parameter. There's no point to having it around since
the demo buffer grows automatically.
SVN r238 (trunk)
functions added to the exit chain with atterm so that they can be called
in a deterministic order and not whatever order the linker decides to put
them in.
- Fixed: DCajunMaster did not free its getspawned.
- Fixed: P_FreeLevelData() did not free ACS scripts.
- Fixed: Level snapshots were not freed at exit.
- Fixed: The save/load menu list was not freed at exit.
- Fixed: FCompressedMemFile needs a destructor to free the m_ImplodedBuffer.
- Fixed: G_DoLoadGame() did not free the engine string.
- Fixed: M_ReadSaveStrings() did not free the engine string.
- Fixed: Processing DEM_SAVEGAME did not free the pathname string.
- Added a check for truncated flats to FFlatTexture::MakeTexture() because
Heretic's F_SKY1 is only four bytes long.
- Added a dump of the offending state to the "Cannot find state..." diagnostic.
- Fixed: FCompressedFile did not initialize m_Mode in its default constructor.
- Fixed: Heretic and Hexen status bars did not initialize ArtiRefresh.
- Fixed: PNGHandle destructor should use delete[] to free TextChunks.
