The RichEdit control can become quite slow with large amounts of text being added constantly.
Since anything that gets added while the game is running can't be seen anyway unless a fatal error is produced, it buffers the text locally now, without any processing, and only adds it to the RichEdit control in case a fatal error causes the control to be displayed again.
- added version check for Windows 8. I also would have liked to add 8.1 but due to some incredibly stupid changes in the version API it's no longer possible to reliably retrieve the correct Windows version for later builds.
- 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.
- Use functions in gitinfo.cpp to retrieve the strings from gitinfo.h so
that changes to gitinfo.h only require recompiling one file instead of
several.
it's far too early to be used with I_FatalError. (But since this should always be available on
every Windows version after 95, this should be a non-issue.)
- Make unknown OS versions default to Windows 2000 instead of Windows 95.
SVN r3802 (trunk)
- set 'cursor' as default for Action Doom 2. Doom's bunny is probably not the best thing here...
- made cursor user-settable in the menu.
SVN r2855 (trunk)
time as the polled timer so that the timer does not start running until the
first time it is used.
- Removed the srand() call from D_DoomMain(), because it started the game
timer running prematurely, and we never call rand() anywhere. (Not to
mention, even if we did use rand(), always seeding it with 0 is rather
pointless.)
SVN r1974 (trunk)
- Removed #pragma warnings from cmdlib.h and fixed the places where they were
still triggered.
These #pragmas were responsible for >90% of the GCC warnings that were not
listed in VC++.
- Fixed one bug in the process: DSeqNode::m_Atten was never adjusted when the
parameter handling of the sound functions for attenuation was changed.
Changed m_Atten to a float and fixed the SNDSEQ parser to set proper values.
Also added the option to specify attenuation with direct values in addition
to the predefined names.
SVN r1583 (trunk)
cryptographically secure random number generator, if available, instead
of the current time.
- Changed the random number generator from Lee Killough's algorithm to the
SFMT607 variant of the Mersenne Twister.
SVN r1507 (trunk)
initialization. To be used to check for errors in scripts without actually
running the game.
- Added the -stdout parameter to the Windows version to send all output to
a console, like the Linux version has done all along.
SVN r1486 (trunk)
QueryPerformanceCounter() is obviously using the TSC for its timing on my
machine, yet the overhead it has to do to keep the timer sane is apparently
noticeable on a few maps. I suppose I should at some time check
clock_gettime() and see if it has similar issues on Linux.
SVN r1460 (trunk)
certain actors and added an option to APowerInvisibility to set this
flag when active.
- Added map specific automap backgrounds.
- Fixed: Voodoo dolls did not play a sound when dying.
- Added colorized error messages to DECORATE and made a few more error
conditions that do not block further parsing not immediately abort.
- Made all errors in CreateNewActor not immediately fatal so that the
rest of the DECORATE lump can be parsed normally to look for more errors.
- Fixed: Defining classes with the same name as their immediate base class
was legal. It should not be allowed that a class has another one with the
same name in its ancestry.
- Fixed: Formatting of the intermission screen on Heretic, Hexen and Strife
was broken. Changed it to use WI_Drawpercent which does it properly and
also allows showing percentage in these games now.
- Fixed: The MAPINFO parser ignored missing terminating braces of the last
block in the file.
SVN r1425 (trunk)
- fixed: The nextmap and nextsecret CCMDs need to call G_DeferedInitNew instead of G_InitNew.
- merged MAPINFO branch back into trunk.
SVN r1393 (trunk)
and DEM_WIPEOFF commands. Fixes multimap demos desyncing when played back
or recorded with wipes enabled, and prevents multiplayer games from
starting until all players' wipes have finished.
SVN r1272 (trunk)
- Removed AT_GAME_SET because it's no longer used anywhere.
- Converted the last remaining global classes to DECORATE.
- Fixed: Inventory.PickupFlash requires an class name as parameter not an
integer. Some Hexen definitions got it wrong.
- Converted Hexen's Pig to DECORATE.
- Replaced the ActorInfo definitions of all internal inventory classes with
DECORATE definitions.
- Added option to specify a powerup's duration in second by using a negative
number.
SVN r1137 (trunk)
registers AMD64 provides, this routine still needs to be written as self-
modifying code for maximum performance. The additional registers do allow
for further optimization over the x86 version by allowing all four pixels
to be in flight at the same time. The end result is that AMD64 ASM is about
2.18 times faster than AMD64 C and about 1.06 times faster than x86 ASM.
(For further comparison, AMD64 C and x86 C are practically the same for
this function.) Should I port any more assembly to AMD64, mvlineasm4 is the
most likely candidate, but it's not used enough at this point to bother.
Also, this may or may not work with Linux at the moment, since it doesn't
have the eh_handler metadata. Win64 is easier, since I just need to
structure the function prologue and epilogue properly and use some
assembler directives/macros to automatically generate the metadata. And
that brings up another point: You need YASM to assemble the AMD64 code,
because NASM doesn't support the Win64 metadata directives.
- Added an SSE version of DoBlending. This is strictly C intrinsics.
VC++ still throws around unneccessary register moves. GCC seems to be
pretty close to optimal, requiring only about 2 cycles/color. They're
both faster than my hand-written MMX routine, so I don't need to feel
bad about not hand-optimizing this for x64 builds.
- Removed an extra instruction from DoBlending_MMX, transposed two
instructions, and unrolled it once, shaving off about 80 cycles from the
time required to blend 256 palette entries. Why? Because I tried writing
a C version of the routine using compiler intrinsics and was appalled by
all the extra movq's VC++ added to the code. GCC was better, but still
generated extra instructions. I only wanted a C version because I can't
use inline assembly with VC++'s x64 compiler, and x64 assembly is a bit
of a pain. (It's a pain because Linux and Windows have different calling
conventions, and you need to maintain extra metadata for functions.) So,
the assembly version stays and the C version stays out.
- Removed all the pixel doubling r_detail modes, since the one platform they
were intended to assist (486) actually sees very little benefit from them.
- Rewrote CheckMMX in C and renamed it to CheckCPU.
- Fixed: CPUID function 0x80000005 is specified to return detailed L1 cache
only for AMD processors, so we must not use it on other architectures, or
we end up overwriting the L1 cache line size with 0 or some other number
we don't actually understand.
SVN r1134 (trunk)
surprised if this doesn't build in Linux right now. The CMakeLists.txt
were checked with MinGW and NMake, but how they fair under Linux is an
unknown to me at this time.
- Converted most sprintf (and all wsprintf) calls to either mysnprintf or
FStrings, depending on the situation.
- Changed the strings in the wbstartstruct to be FStrings.
- Changed myvsnprintf() to output nothing if count is greater than INT_MAX.
This is so that I can use a series of mysnprintf() calls and advance the
pointer for each one. Once the pointer goes beyond the end of the buffer,
the count will go negative, but since it's an unsigned type it will be
seen as excessively huge instead. This should not be a problem, as there's
no reason for ZDoom to be using text buffers larger than 2 GB anywhere.
- Ripped out the disabled bit from FGameConfigFile::MigrateOldConfig().
- Changed CalcMapName() to return an FString instead of a pointer to a static
buffer.
- Changed startmap in d_main.cpp into an FString.
- Changed CheckWarpTransMap() to take an FString& as the first argument.
- Changed d_mapname in g_level.cpp into an FString.
- Changed DoSubstitution() in ct_chat.cpp to place the substitutions in an
FString.
- Fixed: The MAPINFO parser wrote into the string buffer to construct a map
name when given a Hexen map number. This was fine with the old scanner
code, but only a happy coincidence prevents it from crashing with the new
code
- Added the 'B' conversion specifier to StringFormat::VWorker() for printing
binary numbers.
- Added CMake support for building with MinGW, MSYS, and NMake. Linux support
is probably broken until I get around to booting into Linux again. Niceties
provided over the existing Makefiles they're replacing:
* All command-line builds can use the same build system, rather than having
a separate one for MinGW and another for Linux.
* Microsoft's NMake tool is supported as a target.
* Progress meters.
* Parallel makes work from a fresh checkout without needing to be primed
first with a single-threaded make.
* Porting to other architectures should be simplified, whenever that day
comes.
- Replaced the makewad tool with zipdir. This handles the dependency tracking
itself instead of generating an external makefile to do it, since I couldn't
figure out how to generate a makefile with an external tool and include it
with a CMake-generated makefile. Where makewad used a master list of files
to generate the package file, zipdir just zips the entire contents of one or
more directories.
- Added the gdtoa package from netlib's fp library so that ZDoom's printf-style
formatting can be entirely independant of the CRT.
SVN r1082 (trunk)
during it.
- UI sounds are now omitted from savegames.
- Fixed: Menu sounds had been restricted to one at a time again.
- Moved the P_SerializeSounds() call to the end of G_SerializeLevel() so that
it will occur after the players are loaded.
- Added fixes from FreeBSD for 0-length and very large string buffers
passed to myvsnprintf.
SVN r1063 (trunk)
code to process their messages. This was necessary to handle the %zu format
option used in some memory allocation failure messages.
- Fixed: The flat texture scaling action specials were completely broken.
SVN r1056 (trunk)
class so they all the low-level details of MIDI streaming are kept in
one place.
- Converted the SMF MIDI playback to use the same MIDI streams as MUS
playback.
- Moved MUS playback back into its own thread so that it can continue
uninterrupted if the main thread is too busy to service it in a timely
manner.
- Fixed: The MEVT_* values are not defined shifted into their spot for a
MIDIEVENT, so I need to do it myself.
- Fixed: Pausing a MUS and the changing snd_midivolume caused the paused
notes to become audible.
SVN r784 (trunk)
of ZDoom, except now the entire song isn't prebuffered in large chunks, so
I can insert MIDI events into the playback with fairly low latency. This
should offer more precise timing than the combination of low-level MIDI and
WaitForSingleObject timeouts.
SVN r783 (trunk)
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.
SVN r581 (trunk)
both named item.
- Switched ddraw.dll to be delay loaded. With D3D9 now being the default
display code, this avoids wasting time loading DDraw if it isn't needed.
- Fixed: The Win32 I_FatalError() did not set alreadyThrown, so it could get
stuck in an endless fatal error loop.
SVN r433 (trunk)
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.
SVN r416 (trunk)
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)
intelligently pick the value to use for TranslucentLine's second argument.
- Added a queryiwad_key cvar to control which key can force the IWAD selection
to appear. It can be either "shift" or "control". Any other value will
disable its functionality.
- Fixed: A_SkullPop() and A_FreezeDeathChunks() did not transfer the player's
inventory to the new dismembered head "player".
SVN r268 (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)
while and killing centaurs with the flechette.
- Fixed: Moving to an old level in a hub caused the old player's inventory to
spawn owned by the current player (but still hanging off the old player), so
the game would hang when trying to delete it.
- Modified re2c so that it doesn't add a date to the file it generates. Thus,
if it regenerates a file during a full rebuild, SVN won't see it as a change.
Also updated it to 0.10.5.
- Fixed: SC_GetString() did not properly terminate sc_String when the last
token in the file had no white space after it. Since I could not actually
find the problem (it works fine in debug mode and I saw no logic errors),
I decided to take this opportunity to reimplement it using an re2c-generated
scanner. Now it's 1.6x faster than before and correctness is easier to
verify.
- Fixed: FMODSoundRenderer::Shutdown() also needs to reset NumChannels.
- Added back the Manifest to zdoom.rc for non-VC8 Windows compilers.
- Fixed MinGW compilation again. Now it uses the same method as Makefile.linux
to find all the source files so that it doesn't need to be manually updated
each time source files are added or removed.
- Added the SVN revision number to the version string. A new tool is used to
obtain this information from the svnversion command and write it into a
header file. If you don't have the svn command line tools installed or didn't
check it out from the repository, you can still build. I added some rules for
this to Makefile.linux, and I assume they work because they do for
Makefile.mingw.
- Fixed: MIDISong2 did not delete MusHeader in its destructor.
SVN r200 (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.
