This also replaces DTA_ColormapStyle with proper implementations of its components. As implemented it was a very awkward mixture of various effects that already existed in a separate form. As a result of its implementation it required additional but completely redundant shader support which could be removed now. As a side effect of this change a new DTA_Desaturate option was added.
This cannot be allowed under any circumstances because this is what links the map geometry together.
Yes, it will break any mod that tries to play with these variables, but any such mod has to be considered broken by design and must be stopped.
Notes:
* ADL: The DMX volume model was set as default to unify volumes on all bank. Otherwise, if you will use 'Generic' or 'Win9x', the sound will became too loud than wanted. Each bank has own default volume model which is used when 'Auto' is set.
* ADL: 6 chips is optimal to work with default banks
* OPN: 8 chips are set to provide 48 polyphony channels. (each OPN2 chip has 6 channels only)
* Text files: junk spaces from end of lines are was auto-removed.
There is now a separate MIDI player options menu which is a list of submenus, one for each player (except for OPNMIDI which does not have any options yet.
Note that this is just the bare abstract interface. It is up to content makers to define usable HUD message classes and optionally contribute them to the engine.
There was a clear attempt here to let the item keep control of the remaining morph time, but since the item would have gotten destroyed right afterward it just shot itself in the foot badly by doing so.
Just leaving the remaining work to the main unmorphing check in the PlayerThink code by doing nothing will avoid the bad situation where a player gets stuck in its morphed form.
This method can be used with arbitrary actor object like thing.ACS_ScriptCall("script")
CallACS() and ACS_NamedExecuteWithResult() intrinsics work only within self actor context
The text input field for the configs have been removed. Instead it will now present a list of soundfonts that are found in specific locations.
For that it will look in the 'soundfont' directories of the FileSearch.Directories entry of the config.
Acceptable file formats here are SF2 and zipped GUS patch sets. These zipped patch sets need to have a timidity.cfg at the root and refer to all containing data by relative path. References to outside files are not allowed here.
It is still possible to refer to sound fonts elsewhere on the hard drive by manually entering a path at the console - but these won't show in the menu and will get lost if one cycles through the list of available options.
Of the available softsynths, FluidSynth will only list SF", Wildmidi will only list GUS patch sets and Timidity++ and GUS will list both.
Please note that although the GUS synth can read SF2, the output appears to be broken die to some old bug.
