longer determined by game. Instead there's a new flag, MF5_BLOODSPLATTER
which is deciding what to do. To keep backwards compatibility this flag
is unset for projectiles in Doom and Strife and set for them in Heretic
and Hexen. The same applies to DECORATE but of course the flag can be
manipulated here.
- BLODxx sprites are now globally renamed to BLUDxx when not playing Doom.
This allows using the same states in every game, including the
Raven-specific blood actors.
- Gave the bullet puff and the axe blood masses of 5 so that the make small
splashes.
- Added A_Light(value) code pointer for DECORATE to generalize the weapon
light effect.
- Added 'noskillmenu' option to MAPINFO episode definitions. This is for
WADs that want to implement a skill selection level.
- Added APROP_ChaseGoal and APROP_Frightened actor properties for ACS.
- Added MF5_CHASEGOAL flag that makes monsters to go after their goal even
if they have a valid target.
- Fixed some issues with the changes to P_NewChaseDir I made to include
MBF's dropoff logic.
- Added a PowerFrightener powerup class. It seemed like such a waste to
have this cool feature but no means to use it in a decent fashion.
- Fixed: S_Init and S_ParseSndInfo should call atterm only once but not
each time they are called.
SVN r112 (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.
SVN r111 (trunk)
- Added string replacement option to obituary strings.
- Changed lock and pickup message handling so that it is either a real
string or a LANGUAGE identifier. The only reason I did the mixed format
in the first place were Hexen's lock messages but they have been
replaced by unique strings in the mean time so the feature isn't needed
any more.
- Added a flags parameter to TranslucentLine.
- Extended the second arg of Line_SetIdentification to set not only
ML_ZONEBOUNDARY but all 8 bits of the third byte in the flag word.
This allows a relatively simple means of setting all the new flags
directly.
- Moved ML_ZONEBOUNDARY to doomdata.h so that it is in the same place as the
other line flags.
- Fixed: Strife's teleport swirl didn't loop its animation.
- Fixed: Strife's rat is not supposed to be shootable.
SVN r110 (trunk)
- Fixed: Names in terrain definitions were never freed. Replacing them with
FNames would have been a good idea anyway.
- Fixed: The lock definitions were never freed.
- Fixed: FDoorAnimation was missing a destructor.
- Fixed: animation and switch definitions were never freed.
- Replaced all other places where FindType was used with FNames with
IFindType.
SVN r90 (trunk)
- Fixed: If you want to use a name as the missile parameter for the basic
attack functions the type search in DoAttack must be case insensitive.
- Fixed: APowerup::DoEffect must do more thorough checks before resetting
the fixed colormap.
SVN r89 (trunk)
- Fixed: FDoomEdMap needed a destructor.
- Fixed: Decal animators were never freed.
- Fixed: Colormaps were never freed.
- Fixed: Memory allocated in R_InitTranslationTables() was never freed.
- Fixed: R_InitParticles() allocated way more memory than it needed to. (And the
particle memory was never freed, either.)
- Fixed: FMetaTable::FreeMeta() should use delete[] to free string metadata.
- Fixed: FConfigFile::ClearCurrentSection() must cast the entry to a char *
before deleting it, because that's the way it was allocated.
- Fixed definitions of DeadZombieMan and DeadShotgunGuy in doom/deadthings.txt.
Skip_super resets the dropitem list, so having it after "DropItem None" is
pointless.
- Fixed: Decorate DropItem information was never freed.
- Fixed: FinishStates() allocated even 0-entry state arrays.
- Fixed: Default actor instances were never freed.
- Fixed: FRandomSoundList never freed its sound list.
- Fixed: Level and cluster strings read from MAPINFO were never freed.
- Fixed: Episode names were never freed.
- Fixed: InverseColormap and GoldColormap were never freed. Since they're always
allocated, they can just be arrays rather than pointers.
- Fixed: FFont destructor never freed any of the character data or the font's name.
- Fixed: Fonts were not freed at exit.
- Fixed: FStringTable::LoadLanguage() did not call SC_Close().
- Fixed: When using the -iwad parameter, IdentifyVersion() did not release the
buffer it created to hold the parameter's path.
SVN r88 (trunk)
- Added a misc/secret sound definition for Heretic.
- Fixed: Powered up weapons were not properly deselected when the level ended
and their ready state was different from the main weapon's.
- Made some improvements to A_CountdownArg.
- Removed the 'Yes', 'No' and 'Greetings' state assignment commands. They haven't
been documented and thus haven't been used at all so far. Therefore they don't
need to be handled considering that they will go away anyway.
- Changed the DECORATE state parser so that Stop can also be specified right after
a label, in addition to goto.
SVN r84 (trunk)
- Converted a_zombie.cpp and most of a_strifestuff.cpp to DECORATE.
- Converted a_strifekeys.cpp to DECORATE and moved the pickup messages to the
string table.
- Removed the WIF_HITS_GHOSTS weapon flag and replaced it with MF2_THRUGHOST.
There is no need to keep two flags around with virtually the same meaning.
- Changed the ShadowArmor to use the VISIBILITYPULSE flag to change its translucency.
It looks much better now than the cheap code pointer based blinking it used before.
- Converted most of a_strifeitems.cpp to DECORATE and moved the pickup messages
to the string table.
- Converted a_strifearmor.cpp to DECORATE and moved the pickup messages to the
string table.
- Moved the messages for killing spectres to the string table.
- Converted the quest items to DECORATE. Also changed A_GiveQuestItem to get
the messages it prints from the string table instead of the quest item's tag
string.
May 5, 2006 (Changes by Graf Zahl)
- Removed the hopelessly outdated thingdef_doc.txt file from the repository.
- Converted a_peasant.cpp and a_ratbuddy.cpp to DECORATE.
- Fixed: C_DoKey didn't treat an empty string as 'no binding' when checking for
valid double bindings.
- Converted a_merchants.cpp to DECORATE.
- Added MF5_NODAMAGE flag to generalize the behavior of Strife's merchants which
can be shot but take no damage from getting hurt.
- Converted a_beggars.cpp to DECORATE.
- Added an Inventory.GiveQuest property. This makes it possible to define all of
Strife's original items that also give a quest item in DECORATE but it is also
useful to define items like the ones in Day of the Acolyte without ugly workarounds.
- Added a Tag property and Strife teaser conversation IDs to DECORATE so now it is
possible to define many of Strife's items.
- Added a FastSpeed property to DECORATE so that projectiles can finally be
assigned a higher speed for fast mode.
- Added a ACS_LockedExecuteDoor special. It is basically the same as the existing
ACS_LockedExecute but it uses the 'door' message instead of 'remote'. This
cannot be integrated into ACS_LockedExecute because all its arguments are already
in use.
- Added a fully customizable A_CustomMeleeAttack function for DECORATE.
SVN r83 (trunk)
- Converted A_Hexendecorations.cpp
- Changed the lower decal spawning code to transfer the main decal's color if
the lower decal's default color is the same as the main decal's.
- Changed the decal stretcher back to use the specified size parameters as a
scaling factor and not a destination size because this is more consistent with
the rest of the decal code. Also adjusted the blood smear definition in DECALDEF
and the description in the Wiki for this.
- Added Jim's most recent fixes.
SVN r77 (trunk)
- Fixed some functions that were declared as taking size_t's but defined as taking
unsigned ints.
- Added a dummy object to delete sound environments on exit.
- Fixed: FWarpTexture did not delete its Spans when destroyed.
- Changed wadclusterinfos and wadlevelinfos arrays into TArrays.
- Added the TypeInfo::AutoTypeInfoPtr for TypeInfo::m_RuntimeActors so they can
be automatically deleted.
- Changed TypeInfo::m_Types into a TArray so it will be automatically deleted
on exit.
- Fixed: TArray::Resize() did not deconstruct entries when shrinking the array.
- Changed TArray::Push() so that it calls Grow() instead of duplicating the growth
calculations itself.
- Calling TArray::Grow() for a small amount when the array is short should grow it
a bit more than it was doing.
SVN r76 (trunk)
its tiles are loaded from the same directory.
- RFF files now load their entire directories into the lumplist.
- Added char * and const char * type coversions for FString, so FStrings can be
freely passed to functions expecting C strings. (Except varargs functions,
which still require manually fetching the C string out of it.)
- Renamed the name class to FName.
- Renamed the string class to FString to emphasize that it is not std::string.
SVN r74 (trunk)
- Removed doom.x, heretic.x and strife.x from the SVN repository. These
are generated files.
- Fixed: A_PainDie has to check whether a valid target exists before
calling IsFriend.
- Fixed: FDecalLib::FindAnimator needs a signed counter to work properly.
May 1, 2006 (Changes by Graf Zahl)
- Added support for game specific pickup messages, if only to be able
to define Raven's invulnerability item in DECORATE.
- Removed A_TreeDeath because it is no longer used.
- Fixed: When picking up a PowerupGiver for an active powerup the
blend color and the duration were transferred to a temorary item
and never took effect. They have to be trnasferred to the newly created
powerup item before trying to give it to the player, not afterward.
- Made the colormap of the InvulnerabilitySphere item specific.
The base power class still needs to have its color adjusted
per game though and since Raven's invulnerability item is used in both
Hexen and Heretic it can't define its own colormap/blend.
- Separated the invulnerability colormaps from the game being played
and made them item specific. They can also be specified as regular
blend colors in DECORATE now.
- Converted a_hereticarmor.cpp and most of a_doomartifacts.cpp,
a_hereticartifacts.cpp and a_heretickeys.cpp to DECORATE.
- Changed the Soulsphere to be a real health item with the Dehacked
modifications made in d_dehacked.cpp as for most other items which
need to be adjusted.
- Added IF_BIGPOWERUP flag to AInventory to expose the RESPAWN_SUPER
dmflag to DECORATE. Also removed the now obsolete ShouldRespawn methods
from AInvulnerabilitySphere and ABlurSphere.
- Converted a_splashes.cpp to DECORATE.
- Converted most of a_debris.cpp to DECORATE.
SVN r73 (trunk)
your head has popped off your body.
- Fixed: When item respawning is on and you play on skill 1 or 5, picking
up ammo would permanently double the amount of ammo received from that
item the next time it gets picked up.
- Added a check to PlayerIsGone() for players who have already had their
actors destroyed before calling it.
- Fixed: G_CheckDemoStatus() only restored your name, autoaim, and color
settings after playing back a demo.
- Added DEM_SPRAY net command so that sprayed decals work in multiplayer
and demos.
- Changed DEM_GIVECHEAT to use a word for specifying the item quantity.
This is useful mainly for giving yourself more than 255 health at a time.
- Fixed: DEM_SUMMONFRIEND was not handled by Net_SkipCommand().
SVN r58 (trunk)
partially because the background patch has to be drawn always to
overwrite the old display.
- Fixed: Giving a health item to a non-player caused a crash.
- Added a compatibility option to limit deh.MaxHealth to the health bonus.
Originally this value wasn't used for health packs. Doing this was a bug
in Boom but since there's quite a few maps out there which require
Boom's altered behavior it has to be compatibility optioned.
- Fixed: The health bonus's max health must be defined by deh.MaxHealth,
not deh.MaxSoulsphere. To achieve this deh.MaxHealth's handling had to
be altered because it has to default to 100.
- Fixed: ZDBSP created incorrect side references with compressed sidedefs
and both sidedefs of a linedef being the same. This only affects the
external tool because the internal node builder is run after uncompressing
the sidedefs.
- Added Jim's latest makefile.linux.
- Added a consistency check to the PNAMES loader because one crash log
indicated that it crashed due to a corrupt PNAMES lump.
- Brought back the sector based sound target handling as a compatibility
option. This radical change just broke far too many maps that depend
on the original behavior. Strife's special AI functions are excluded
though because they work better with the new method.
SVN r56 (trunk)
STlib_drawNum(), and FDoomStatusBarTexture::DrawToBar() should add
the textures left offset to the x coordinate before drawing.
These fix Twice Risen's status bar.
- Changed: VPrintf now uses string.VFormat(), instead of vsprintf().
SVN r53 (trunk)
- Fixed: DMover::MovePlane() would not stop moving the plane when it exactly
reached its target height unless it was a floor moving down.
- Fixed: Actors that can't attack should not be valid haters for Thing_Hate.
- Fixed: AArtiBlastRadius::BlastActor() should not set MF2_SLIDE for missiles.
- Fixed: sdl/i_input.cpp should check !iscntrl() before generating EV_GUI_Char
messages.
SVN r36 (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.
SVN r35 (trunk)
returning from one function to another function when the function that
was called was used as part of an expression.
- Fixed: Using Thing_Hate with arg0 (hater) set to 0 from an open script
could crash.
- Fixed: Some items along ledges in Hexen's MAP32 (Orchard of Lamentations)
appeared at the bottom of the ledge (and consequently inside it) instead
of on top of it because the items were placed directly on the lines.
AActor::LinkToWorldForMapThing() needs to use the original R_PointOnLineSide()
code to handle situations like this. Previously, it just used the original
code for straight horizontal/vertical lines and used the new code for
diagonal lines.
- Fixed: FWadCollection::MergeLumps() used in incorrect realloc.
- Fixed: FPlayList::NextLine() did not properly handle blank lines in the
playlist.
- Changed: Decals now use lightweight thinkers instead of actors. (76 bytes
versus 396, so you save 320k if you have 1024 decals present.)
- Fixed: Wads added with pullin were loaded immediately after the IWAD.
Exec files are now processed immediately before -file but after autoloading
wads in D_DoomMain().
- Fixed: sdl/i_system.h unconditionally defined SHARE_DIR, preventing
redefinition from the command line.
- Fixed: The standard way to include SDL.h is <SDL.h>, not <SDL/SDL.h>.
- Fixed: Returned FActiveInterpolation::HashKey()'s return type to size_t,
avoiding a pointer truncation warning.
SVN r30 (trunk)
ParseActorProperties().
- Fixed: The decorate FindFlag() function returned flags from ActorFlags
instead of the passed flags set.
- Fixed: The CHT_CHAINSAW, CHT_POWER, CHT_HEALTH, and CHT_RESSURECT needed
NULL player->mo checks.
- Fixed: The "give all" command didn't give the backpack in Doom, and it
must give the backpack before giving ammo.
- Fixed: P_SetPsprite() must not call the action function if the player is
not attached to an actor. This can happen, for instance, if the level is
destroyed while the player is holding a powered-up Phoenix Rod. As part
of its EndPowerup() function, it sets the psprite to the regular version,
but the player actor has already been destroyed.
- Fixed: FinishThingdef() needs to check for valid names, because weapons
could have inherited valid pointers from their superclass.
- Fixed: fuglyname didn't work.
- Fixed: Redefining $ambient sounds leaked memory.
- Added Jim's crashcatcher.c fix for better shell support.
- VC7.1 seems to have no trouble distinguishing between passing a (const
TypeInfo *) reference to operator<< and the generic, templated (object *)
version, so a few places that can benefit from it now use it. I believe
VC6 had problems with this, which is why I didn't do it all along. The
function's implementation was also moved out of dobject.cpp and into
farchive.cpp.
- Fixed: UnpackPixels() unpacked all chunks in a byte, which is wrong for the
last byte in a row if the image width is not an even multiple of the number
pixels per byte.
- Fixed: P_TranslateLineDef() should only clear monster activation for secret
useable lines, not crossable lines.
- Fixed: Some leftover P_IsHostile() calls still needed to be rewritten.
- Fixed: AWeaponHolder::Serialize() wrote the class type in all circumstances.
SVN r20 (trunk)
- Fixed: AExplosiveBarrel should have MF2_MCROSS set.
- Fixed: Passing 0 numrays to A_BFGSpray should default to 40.
- Fixed: New A_JumpIfCloser() function.
- Future-proofing: thingdef.cpp/FindState() allows the 2.1 names for
SwitchingDecorations.
- Fixed: ASwitchingDecoration declared itself as deriving from AActor instead of
ASwitchableDecoration.
- Fixed: AWeaponHolder::Serialize() did not call its supermethod.
SVN r19 (trunk)
