- If the current user does not have write permissions for the directory
zdoom.exe is located in, use standard folder paths located in their home
directory instead. This is a common scenario when people put ZDoom into
Program Files. (Ironically, zdoom.ini used to be in AppData, buth then
people complained when it wasn't in the same directory as zdoom.exe, so
it got turned into zdoom-<user>.ini so at least it could retain some
multi-user support. I'm not sure when the AppData support was removed,
though, since it should have still been kept around for migrating
configs to the new name.)
Hexen did this with a call to A_BridgeRemove in Thing_Destroy which merely set a flag in the bridge object, which cannot be done safely in ZDoom because it's not guaranteed that the ball object calls A_BridgeOrbit and the garbage collector may delete the bridge actor before it can be checked so now the Bridge's Destroy method deletes all balls attached to the bridge object itself.
- A texture defined in TEXTUREx without any patches isn't necessarily an
error, so accept. This also means they shouldn't be used for determining
if a TEXTURE directory belongs to Strife instead of Doom.
- 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().
- Fixed: When an ACS string pool was read from a savegame, FirstFreeEntry
would not be updatedt, except by the Clear() function. This left FirstFreeEntry
at 0, which meant the next string added to the pool would always go in
slot 0, whether it was free or not.
- If a player is spying through another player, CheckPlayerCamera will
return the TID of the player you are "spying", but as coopspy isn't a
net command, this wont be reflected by all nodes. So to fix this,
CheckPlayerCamera now returns -1 if a player's camera is that of any
player at all. (thanks edward850)
- Added I_GetLongPathName(). It wraps the Win32 API's GetLongPathName().
DArgs::CollectFiles() now calls this for every argument it processes, so
any arguments passed using short file names will be converted to long
file names. This is mainly of interest so that savegames will never
record the short file name, which can change based on what else is in
the directory.
