palettes smaller than 256 entries with the shader I wrote for it. Is there
a list of gotchas like this listed some where? I'd really like to see it.
Well, when compiled with SM2.0, the PalTex shader seems to be every-so-
slightly faster on my GF7950GT than the SM1.4 version, so I guess it's a
minor win for cards that support it.
- Fixed: ST_Endoom() failed to free the bitmap it used.
- Added the DTA_ColorOverlay attribute to blend a color with the texture
being drawn. For software, this (currently) only works with black. For
hardware, it works with any color. The motiviation for this was so I could
rewrite the status bar calls that passed DIM_MAP to DTA_Translation to
draw darker icons into something that didn't require making a whole new
remap table.
- After having an "OMG! How could I have been so stupid?" moment, I have
removed the off-by-one check from D3DFB. I had thought the off-by-one error
was caused by rounding errors by the shader hardware. Not so. Rather, I
wasn't sampling what I thought I was sampling. A texture that uses palette
index 255 passes the value 1.0 to the shader. The shader needs to adjust the
range of its palette indexes, or it will end up trying to read color 256
from the palette texture when it should be reading color 255. Doh!
- The TranslationToTable() function has been added to map from translation
numbers used by actors to the tables those numbers represent. This function
performs validation for the input and returns NULL if the input value
is invalid.
- Major changes to the way translation tables work: No longer are they each a
256-byte array. Instead, the FRemapTable structure is used to represent each
one. It includes a remap array for the software renderer, a palette array
for a hardware renderer, and a native texture pointer for D3DFB. The
translationtables array itself is now an array of TArrays that point to the
real tables. The DTA_Translation attribute must also be passed a pointer
to a FRemapTable, not a byte array as previously.
- Modified DFrameBuffer::DrawRateStuff() so that it can do its thing properly
for D3DFB's 2D mode. Before, any fullscreen graphics (like help images)
covered it up.

- moved the AM line drawer into DCanvas as a virtual function. While testing
this code I discovered that the antialias precalculation was never used
except for the very first frame of AM drawing. However, since I couldn't
detect even a marginal performance improvement using this code on 2 computers
I just disabled it completely because it severely complicates a more generic
implementation. I also disabled am_ovtrans in the process because I couldn't
see any positive effects of using this cvar. All it does is adding some
ugly distortion to the lines it affects without any apparent benefits.
* Added fix by Karate Chris containing:
- Added a 'No team changing' DMFlag2 which prevents players from changing teams
unless they are not on a team.
- Added a 'No respawn' DMFlag2 which prevents a player from respawning after
they have died.
- Added a 'Keep frags gained' DMFlag2 which allows you to choose whether you
want to reset the frags of each player next level or not.
- Added a small visual enhancement to the cooperative scoreboard to show
if a player has died.
- Fixed: If the 'teamplay' console variable was set to 'true' in a cooperative
game, the scoreboard would show team play related items as opposed to
cooperative items.
- Fixed: The 'bot_observer' console variable should not work in network games.
- Fixed: Bots made intermission skip really fast.
SVN r634 (trunk)
passing renderer specific data to the function. Also added DTA_Font so
that the renderer can fetch font translations from the proper font.
DIM_MAP/ConShade had to be made a regular translation table to make it
work.
- Added Karate Chris's fix for scoreboard displaying team play related data
in non teamplay games.
- Fixed: The team selection menu didn't work.
- Fixed: UpdateTeam passed an FString to Printf.
SVN r623 (trunk)
- Added a new color parameter to DCanvas::Clear() that specifies the
ARGB value of the color. This is used if the old color parameter,
which specifies a palette entry, is -1.
SVN r617 (trunk)
MAPINFO keyword 'bordertexture' and are settable per map.
- Fixed: When used in DECORATE A_Explode must use A_ExplodeParms.
- Added custom label support to A_Chase. To enable resurrection from the
customizable version I also moved all A_VileChase stuff into p_enemy.cpp.
SVN r437 (trunk)
warnings. At first, I was going to try and clean them all up. Then I decided
that was a worthless cause and went about just acting on the ones that
might actually be helpful:
C4189 (local variable is initialized but not referenced)
C4702 (unreachable code)
C4512 (assignment operator could not be generated)
SVN r420 (trunk)
- If you aren't targeting x86, m_fixed.h only includes basicinlines.h now.
- Moved x64inlines.h into basicinlines.h.
- Replaced uses of __int64 with types from doomtype.h.
- The stop console command no longer ends single player games, just the demo
that was being recorded.
- In C mode, the sc_man parser no longer allows multi-line string constants
without using the \ character to preface the newline character. This makes
it much easier to diagnose errors where you forget the closing quote of a
string.
- Fixed: V_BreakLines() added the terminating '\0' to the last line of the
input string.
- Added font as a parameter to V_BreakLines and removed its keepspace
parameter, which was never passed as anything other than the default.
SVN r331 (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)
full path of a file in a Zip.
- Fixed: intermusic in MAPINFO was limited to WAD lumps and couldn't handle
external data.
ACS:
- Fixed: Global and World array symbols didn't initialize their array information.
SVN r182 (trunk)
other more important message types which have lower priority for some
reason.
- Added a menu option for show_messages after accidentally switching it
off far too often and wondering why no messages appear.
- Added crouching DoomPlayer sprites submitted by Enjay.
- Fixed DF_NO_CROUCH was not checked.
- Fixed: The intermission script parser had some of its cases in the
keyword parser incorrectly sorted.
- Fixed: atterm was still defined to take a STACK_ARGS function argument.
- Added an AltFlash state for weapons.
- Turned FloatSpeed into an actor property and changed the value to 5
for all floating Strife actors, as a comment in the source indicated.
(r114 below):
- Added GZDoom's code for Vavoom slope things because I wanted to test
something with a map from Silent Steel.
- Added nocrouch and allowcrouch MAPINFO commands and a DF_NO_CROUCH
dmflag.
- Added GZDoom's crouching code after cleaning it up so that adding
crouching sprites will be easier.
SVN r115 (trunk)
- Fixed: StreamSong::SetVolume should check the m_stream pointer. This can
happen when a TimiditySong doesn't use FMOD and outputs the sound itself.
- Fixed: 'use' sector actions were using the incorrect sector on several
occasions.
- Added a wi_noautostartmap CVAR and a noautostartmap intermission option
that force the user to manually end the 'entering level' page.
SVN r70 (trunk)
- Changed: Decal scales now use full precision fixed point numbers.
- Changed: Keeping impact decals in their own statlist is enough to keep track
of them for when one needs to be destroyed. There's no need to maintain a
separate list for them.
- Fixed: Decal actors did not spread their decals across neighboring walls.
- Fixed: Decal groups did not initialize their IDs and could not be reliably
used with the decal actor.
- Fixed: Decals on moving polyobjects were not interpolated. R_RenderDecal()
now uses the decal's LeftDistance to calculate its visible location, so it
always stays in sync with the wall's vertices. This also lets me dump some
code from the polyobjects that maintained the decals' (x, y) coordinates.
Also, the decals' x and y information is redundant and can be removed.
Doing this revealed a bug with slider decals and horizontal sliding:
That is, it didn't work at all. I have opted to simply remove the horizontal
sliding support so that I don't have to worry about what happens when a
decal slides across the edge of a wall.
- Fixed: DBaseDecal::LeftDistance was calculated as a 30.2 fixed point number.
It should be 2.30 fixed point.
