* make all legacy light modes except 'Doom' MAPINFO only. A CVAR still exists for testing but its value won't be saved to the config.
* user can only select between "performance', 'software' and 'vanilla'. 'performance' is the old 'Doom' mode which is still needed to speed things up on low end hardware.
* MAPINFO can not enforce any of the two software light modes, as low end users require the option to change this to the 'performance' setting. Selecting one will always revert to the user's light mode selection.
This now treats all pitch methods equally instead of the preferential treatment of Doom's original pitch hack. Most importantly, the sound channel now stores the pitch as a floating point value instead of 9.7 fixed point.
snd_pitched now also gets checked in the sound engine, not the low level interface.
While 'block players' was just a simple remap, 'block land monsters' required quite a bit of work...
This also fixes the bug that BLOCK_FLOATERS was never checked for sliding against a wall.
Sensitivity scaling of both axes is now exposed as a raw factor to the user instead of obscuring it behind an unclear 'prescale' boolean.
This also consolidates the coordinate processing code to prevent such discrepancies as were present here from happening again.
Migration code for old config settings is present so that this change does not affect existing configurations.
The old method using a single string with a backslash as separator is unable to handle anything with actual backslashes in the data.
It now uses a JSON object with each CVAR being a separate key.
It's "doom.id.doom1/2" instead of "doom.doom1/2" now.
The config file's content will be renamed and for lump filtering a fallback has been added - note that you cannot combine both naming schemes! The old one has to be considered deprecated now.
This also removes the duplicated content necessitated by the old naming scheme.
With localization for non-Latin languages on the support list the multibyte API doesn't cut it anymore. It neither can handle system text output outside the local code page nor can an ANSI window receive text input outside its own code page.
Similar problems exist for file names. With the multibyte API it is impossible to handle any file containing characters outside the active local code page.
So as of now, everything that may pass along some Unicode text will use the Unicode API with some text conversion functions. The only places where calls to the multibyte API were left are those where known string literals are passed or where the information is not used for anything but comparing it to other return values from the same API.
- 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)
