be surprised if it doesn't work.
- Reorganized the network startup loops so now they are event driven. There is
a single function that gets called to drive it, and it uses callbacks to
perform the different stages of the synchronization. This lets me have a nice,
responsive abort button instead of the previous unannounced hit-escape-to-
abort behavior, and I think the rearranged code is slightly easier to
understand too.
- Increased the number of bytes for version info during D_ArbitrateNetStart(),
in preparation for the day when NETGAMEVERSION requires more than one byte.
- I noticed an issue with Vista RC1 and the new fatal error setup. Even after
releasing a DirectDraw or Direct3D interface, the DWM can still use the
last image drawn using them when it composites the window. It doesn't always
do it but it does often enough that it is a real problem. At this point, I
don't know if it's a problem with the release version of Vista or not.
After messing around, I discovered the problem was caused by ~Win32Video()
hiding the window and then having it immediately shown soon after. The DWM
kept an image of the window to do the transition effect with, and then when
it didn't get a chance to do the transition, it didn't properly forget about
its saved image and kept plastering it on top of everything else
underneath.
- Added a network synchronization panel to the window during netgame startup.
- Fixed: PClass::CreateDerivedClass() must initialize StateList to NULL.
Otherwise, classic DECORATE definitions generate a big, fat crash.
- Resurrected the R_Init progress bar, now as a standard Windows control.
- Removed the sound failure dialog. The FMOD setup already defaulted to no
sound if initialization failed, so this only applies when snd_output is set
to "alternate" which now also falls back to no sound. In addition, it wasn't
working right, and I didn't feel like fixing it for the probably 0% of users
it affected.
- Fixed: The edit control used for logging output added text in reverse order
on Win9x.
- Went back to the roots and made graphics initialization one of the last
things to happen during setup. Now the startup text is visible again. More
importantly, the main window is no longer created invisible, which seems
to cause trouble with it not always appearing in the taskbar. The fatal
error dialog is now also embedded in the main window instead of being a
separate modal dialog, so you can play with the log window to see any
problems that might be reported there.
Rather than completely restoring the original startup order, I tried to
keep things as close to the way they were with early graphics startup. In
particular, V_Init() now creates a dummy screen so that things that need
screen dimensions can get them. It gets replaced by the real screen later
in I_InitGraphics(). Will need to check this under Linux to make sure it
didn't cause any problems there.
- Removed the following stubs that just called functions in Video:
- I_StartModeIterator()
- I_NextMode()
- I_DisplayType()
I_FullscreenChanged() was also removed, and a new fullscreen parameter
was added to IVideo::StartModeIterator(), since that's all it controlled.
- Renamed I_InitHardware() back to I_InitGraphics(), since that's all it's
initialized post-1.22.

because the differences are only minimal.
- Removed all the varargs FindState functions because they aren't really needed.
The engine itself never explicitly checks for more than 2 labels and for the
rest a function that gets passed a FName array is more suitable anyway.
SVN r414 (trunk)
and doesn't have to traverse parent lists to find them. This is required for
Dehacked actors that inherit states (e.g. NonsolidMeat and Spectre) but it also
makes the data much easier to handle.
SVN r413 (trunk)
- Moved deathmatch options into their own category in the gameplay options menu.
- Added the sv_smartaim code from GZDoom which tries to avoid autoaiming
at friendlies or shootable decorations if there are monsters that can be shot.
- Added: SetThingSpecial treats a tid of 0 as the activator.
SVN r412 (trunk)
- Fixed: FTexture::CheckForTexture should return NULL if the texture it
finds is of type FTexture::TEX_Null. If this isn't done not all occurences
of AASHITTY being used to silence an editor's error checker will be handled
correctly. In particular the transparent door trick will break.
SVN r411 (trunk)
cycled through the entire list of actors.
- Reverted AActor::FindState to its R407 version because the change in R408
doesn't compile properly with VC++.
- Changed FIXMAPTHINGPOS further so that it also affects objects that are
not directly on a wall but closer than its radius.
- Changed FIXEDMAPTHINGPOS to move objects completely out of the wall and
adjusted the radii of all affected objects to actually represent half
the sprite's width.
SVN r409 (trunk)
monsters
- Added velocity multiplicators to A_SpawnDebris.
- Changed: A_JumpIfNoAmmo should have no effect for CustomInventory items.
- Fixed: DECORATE jump commands must set the call state's result to 0
even when they have to return prematurely.
- Added obituaries for Strife's and Hexen's monsters.
- Converted Strife's Bishop to DECORATE.
- Added momx, momy and momz variables to the DECORATE expression evaluator.
SVN r404 (trunk)
- Added DECORATE support for setting an actor's args. If this is done
it will also disable the actor's special that can be set in a map. This
is for actors that want to use A_CountdownArg or similar functions
that use the args for something different than the special's parameters.
- Converted a_sharedmisc.cpp to DECORATE.
- Added a new NActorIterator that can search for classes specified by name.
- Added a new constructor to TThinkerIterator that can search
for DECORATE defined subclasses that are not represented by a real C++ class.
- Fixed: BuildInfoDefaults must set the parent symbol table so that
all actors can get to the global symbols stored in AActor.
- Fixed some minor inconsistencies in the Arch-Vile's DECORATE definition.
- Fixed: A_VileAttack moved the flame without relinking it into the sector
lists. It also forgot to set the z-position correctly. (original Doom bug.)
- Fixed: The Doom 2 cast finale didn't work with the dynamic state name handling.
SVN r401 (trunk)
computers are fast enough that the difference isn't even noticeable
unless you're doing hundreds of thousands of matches, and I never had
any plans to improve the algorithm the "fast" code used.
- Fixed: BestColor() should not by default return 1 as a possible match,
since it's normally the transparent color.
SVN r400 (trunk)
- Fixed: If the FBTexture wasn't exactly the same size as the screen,
D3DFB::PaintToWindow() would still lock it with D3DLOCK_DISCARD. Alas,
I saw no speedup for using a dirty region. (Side note: The Radeons are
apparently slower compared to DirectDraw because they must do
power-of-2 textures. If they ever add non-power-of-2 support like nvidia,
I assume they will also see a speed gain.)
- Changed fb_d3d9.cpp so that instead of trying to compensate for Geforce
off-by-one errors in the pixel shader, it automatically detects where
the error occurs and modifies the way the palette is uploaded to
compensate. Palette color 255 is then represented using the texture
border color instead of actually being part of the palette. This should
work correctly with all cards, since I had a report of an FX where the
off-by-one occurred in a different spot from the place where I observed
it on a 6 and 7 series cards. Since the shader now has one fewer
instruction, I notice a very marginal speedup. (Interestingly, removing
the flash blending from the shader had no perceivable performance gain.)
SVN r399 (trunk)
names for some DECORATE functions. Technically these will be constants
of the AActor class but that will make them accessible in all other actor
classes.
SVN r397 (trunk)
APlayerPawn::GiveDefaultInventory gave him some HexenArmor even though
he doesn't need it.
- Added custom blood type properties to DECORATE.
- Converted Blood to DECORATE and made some minor changes to the code
in preparation for custom blood types.
- Converted the bot helper things to DECORATE.
- Added damage type specific crash states.
SVN r395 (trunk)
- Added integer constant declarations to objects.
- Added some new token-based functions to sc_man.cpp that know about keywords
and record proper type information, so parsers don't need to treat
everything as strings.
- Added a simple symbol table to PClass.
SVN r394 (trunk)
not even zvox.wad or the skins directory.
- Minor improvement of Hexen's Demons: They now transfer the translation
to the chunks they spawn so that they look correct if they are color
translated. See Resurrection of Chaos for an example.
- Converted Key gizmos to DECORATE.
- Converted Heretic's Beast (Weredragon) to DECORATE.
- Added a randomness parameter to A_SpawnItemEx. This allows
spawning objects with a random chance without the need to write
complicated A_Jump constructs.
- Converted Heretic's Mummy to DECORATE.
- Converted Hexen's Demons to DECORATE.
SVN r393 (trunk)
- Made the Ettin's and Centaur's howling sound an actor property.
- Added A_CustomComboAttack function to finally have something that can
replace the old A_ComboAttack function.
- Added A_SpawnItemEx function that removes the problems with A_SpawnItem
and which also should make most of the A_CustomMissile abuse unnecessary.
- Added A_QueueCorpse to the list of DECORATE code pointers.
- Made the size of Hexen's corpse queue configurable by CVAR
(sv_corpsequeuesize.) Setting this CVAR to -1 will disable corpse
queuing completely so that even in Hexen all corpses will stay forever.
SVN r392 (trunk)
better emulate some calculation of internal code pointers.
- Added named RNG support to DECORATE's expression evaluator. Just use
random[name](min, max).
SVN r391 (trunk)
explaining the need to use mt.exe 6.0 or newer. Here is the note:
VERY IMPORTANT: You must copy the mt.exe from %VSINSTALLDIR%\Common7\Tools\bin
on top of the version in %VSINSTALLDIR%\VC\bin or your computer may restart
while building.
- Changed the ASecretTrigger::Activate() fix: There's no reason open scripts
shouldn't be able to activate secret triggers; players just won't get
credit for it in coop.
- Added a NULL actor check to R_SetupFrame().
- Fixed: The player sounds in DEHSUPP were defined incorrectly.
SVN r390 (trunk)
- Added MissSound parameter to A_CustomMeleeAttack.
- Converted Heretic's Snake (Ophidian) to DECORATE.
- Added an option to A_CustomMissile to jump to the see state if
the caller's target is dead.
- Fixed: A_ThrowGrenade didn't play the missile's spawn sound.
- Added MF_SPAWNSOUNDSOURCE flag so that Raven's missile spawning code
pointers can be recreated with DECORATE.
- Converted a_ravenambient.cpp to DECORATE.
SVN r388 (trunk)
redirect player pointers, it affects the bodyque too. That meant that in
multiplayer games, once the bodyque filled up, anybody was in danger of
being rudely destroyed the next time somebody respawned.
SVN r386 (trunk)
the build process can run uninterrupted under Vista.
- Fixed: DIRECT3DCREATE9FUNC needs WINAPI added to its prototype so that it
works properly in release build, which defaults to __fastcall.
SVN r385 (trunk)
to PO_MovePolyobj() from P_SerializePolyobjs() for a crushing polyobject
that touches a player actor will not have a valid actor->player->mo chain
for P_DamageMobj and crash if it happens to touch the player. Since the
polyobject was presumably in a good spot when the game was saved, we can
just skip this step entirely and let it take care of itself the next time
it moves (by which time, the players will be valid).
- Fixed: When transitioning from fullscreen to windowed mode with D3DFB, the
window kept the WS_EX_TOPMOST style.
- Slight correctness fix: When in fullscreen, the window should have WS_POPUP
style.
- Added a NULL target check to P_SpawnMissileXYZ(), A_DemonAttack1(),
A_DemonAttack2_1(), and A_DemonAttack2_2().
SVN r384 (trunk)
- Made Hexenarmor factors configurable by DECORATE.
- Added support for selecting the invulnerability mode per item as well.
- Made Invulnerability and Healing radius behavior selectable by player
class instead of hard coding the special behavior to the Hexen classes.
SVN r379 (trunk)
in DECORATE. While it is still recommended not to use them anymore
they will continue to work with custom state support and existing
DECORATE code doesn't have to be changed. However, they will remain
limited to the existing functionality, nothing more.
SVN r377 (trunk)
- After doing some tests with state label scopes I had to conclude that
using '.' both for separating sub-state-labels and scope resolution
identifiers does not work reliably unless all actor class names were
prohibited from being used as state labels. Since that is undesirable
the only solution is to change the scope resolution operator. Fortunately
no WADs so far have used it so implementing such a breaking change isn't
a major issue. Now it uses '::', like C++ for this purpose.
- Converted Revenant, Mancubus and Pain Elemental to DECORATE.
SVN r375 (trunk)
- Added VSpeed DECORATE property so that an actor can be given an initial
vertical speed.
- Removed the barrel check in P_DamageMobj. AActor::Die is doing the same
operation unconditionally so this is redundant.
- Added A_BarrelDestroy to the list of DECORATE code pointers so that
the same effect can be recreated for other items as well.
- Renamed A_BarrelRespawn to A_Respawn, changed it so that it works for
monsters and added it to the list of DECORATE code pointers. Now Quake-style
zombies should be possible. ;)
- Changed handling of MF4_RANDOMIZE so that it applies to all actors being
spawned and not just projectiles.
- Converted Berserk and Megasphere to DECORATE.
- Fixed: HealThing should respect the stamina a player has and the Dehacked
health compatibility flag if max is 0. To do that it calls P_GiveBody now.
SVN r373 (trunk)
with an FString now.
- Fixed: The music strings in the default level info were never freed and
caused memory leaks when used repeatedly.
- Fixed: The intermusic string in the level info was never freed.
- Fixed: The default fire obituary should only be printed if the damage
came from the environment. If it comes from a monster the monster specific
obituary should be used instead.
- Added custom damage types from the floating point test release.
- Changed Pain Elemental's massacre check. Now A_PainDie checks for the damage
type and doesn't spawn anything if it is NAME_Massacre. A_PainDie can also
be used by other actors so a more generalized approach is needed than hard
coding it into the Pain Elemental.
- Converted a few of Doom's monsters to DECORATE because I couldn't test the
first version of the custom state code with the corpses inheriting from them.
- Added custom states from last year's floating point test release and fixed
some bugs I found in that code. Unfortunately it wasn't all salvageable
and it was easier to recreate some parts from scratch.
