This method was chosen because it avoids adding variable declarations to the global namespace which would have required a lot more work while polluting the grammar.
This way the global variables can be handled by a small bit of special coding in the struct generator.
- do not resolve the backdrop texture to a texture ID at load time. This will allow custom menu classes to use this info differently.
- added a new ZSDF userstring property to dialog pages to give mods more means for customization.
- allow overriding the conversation menu class both globally through MAPINFO and per conversation in ZSDF.
- improved the class pointer to string cast to print the actual type it describes and not the class pointer's own type.
- fixed: The 'is' operator created non-working code when checking the inheritance of a class pointer, it only worked for objects.
This is different from the original "Death Scripts" idea. This tackles
some issues I've found with the original idea (now you can have as many
scripts as you want, not just global and actor-defined). Also takes care
of other complaints about the original idea and push request. Flags and
their use are in code comments.
- move D_LoadWadSettings to keysections.cpp.
- made some more data reloadable.
- data structures filled by P_SetupLevel should be cleared before loading the level. They can remain non-empty in case of an error. There's probably more to fix here...
- fixed: MidiDevices and MusicAliases were not cleared before reloading local SNDINFOs.
- fixed signed/unsigned warnings in AddSwitchPair for real (GCC really allows -1u? MSVC prints a warning for that.)
SVN r3036 (trunk)
* Font and color for map name can be set if it's not a titlepatch
* 'Finished' and 'Entering' can be either patches or a printed text in all gamees now.
* Font and color for 'finished' and 'entering' text can be set.
* moved 'finished' and 'Now entering:' texts into string table.
SVN r2981 (trunk)
* the sprite used for 'pause'.
* the factor with which a monster's health is multiplied to decide if it's supposed to be gibbed,
* the decision to make monsters run faster in nightmare mode.
- moved the hard coded lock messages for lock types 102 and 103 into the language lump.
- fixed: Raven's fast monsters could become slower in Nightmare if they had very short walking states.
SVN r2834 (trunk)
The editor number for player start spot 5 is now stored in the game info
so that there's only one place where this check needs to be done.
- Fixed: WIF_NOAUTOAIM only worked for projectiles unlike Skulltag's original
implementation.
SVN r1997 (trunk)
- moved default item drop style into gameinfo.
- moved default respawn time into gameinfo.
- moved default inventory max amount into gameinfo.
- turned Heretic's blocking of the sector for LS_Plat_RaiseAndStayTx0 into
a parameter instead of having the game mode decide.
SVN r1812 (trunk)
extensions.
- Removed merging of special namespaces. For the texture manager this has
become totally useless so there is no need to do this anymore. Not merging
the namespaces also allows a much more reliable detection of lumps belonging
to special namespaces so the ScanForFlatHack function is no longer needed.
Instead, any lump up to F_END with a length of 4096 will be marked for
inclusion as a flat texture if no F_START marker is found.
- Made the counting of intermission stats in Doom a GAMEINFO option so that
it can be activated in all games.
SVN r1555 (trunk)
empty weapon slots due to the recent rewrite of the weapon slot assignment
code. To handle such classes each game now defines a default weapon slot
setting in its gameinfo. This will be used when a player class without any
weapon slot settings is used.
SVN r1521 (trunk)
- removed gamemode variable. All it was used for were some checks that
really should depend on GI_MAPxx.
- Externalized all internal gameinfo definitions.
- added include to MAPINFO parser.
- split IWAD detection code off from d_main.cpp into its own file.
- disabled gamemission based switch filtering because it is not useful.
- added GAMEINFO submission by Blzut3 with significant modifications. There
is no GAMEINFO lump. Instead all information is placed in MAPINFO, except
the data that is needed to decide which WADs to autoload.
