run into the adjacent columns.
- Added a NullSoundRenderer so that most of the checks against a NULL GSnd
can be removed.
- Fixed: Looping sounds must always successfully allocate a channel, even if
it's only a pre-evicted channel.
SVN r1058 (trunk)
the rest of the game is concerned, these sounds will never stop once they
have been started until they are explicitly stopped. If they are evicted
from their channels, the sound code will restart them as soon as possible.
This means that instead of this:
if (!S_IsActorPlayingSomething(actor, CHAN_WEAPON, -1))
{
S_Sound(actor, CHAN_WEAPON|CHAN_LOOP, soundid, 1, ATTN_NORM);
}
The following is now just as effective:
S_Sound(actor, CHAN_WEAPON|CHAN_LOOP, soundid, 1, ATTN_NORM);
There are also a couple of other ramifications presented by this change:
* The full state of the sound system (sans music) is now stored in save
games. Any sounds that were playing when you saved will still be
playing when you load. (Try saving while Korax is making a speech in
Hexen to hear it.)
* Using snd_reset will also preserve any playing sounds.
* Movie playback is disabled, probably forever. I did not want to
update the MovieDisable/ResumeSound stuff for the new eviction
tracking code. A properly updated movie player will use the VMR,
which doesn't need these functions, since it would pipe the sound
straight through the sound system like everything else, so I decided
to dump them now, which leaves the movie player in a totally unworkable
state.

- Changed S_Sound() to take the same floating point attenuation that the
internal S_StartSound() uses. Now ambient sounds can use the public
S_Sound() interface.
- Fixed: S_RelinkSound() compared the points of the channels against the
from actor's point, rather than checking the channels' mover.
- Changed Strife's animated doors so that their sounds originate from the
interior of the sector making them and not from the entire vertical height
of the map.
SVN r1055 (trunk)
that animated icons can be done with it.
- Changed FImageCollection to use a TArray to hold its data.
- Fixed: SetChanHeadSettings did an assignment instead of comparing
the channel ID witg CHAN_CEILING.
- Changed sound sequence names for animated doors to FNames.
- Automatically fixed: DCeiling didn't properly serialize its texture id.
- Replaced integers as texture ID representation with a specific new type
to track down all potentially incorrect uses and remaining WORDs used
for texture IDs so that more than 32767 or 65535 textures can be defined.
SVN r1036 (trunk)
consideration the size and shape of the sector producing the sound. See
the lifts on Doom 2 MAP30 and compare with previous versions.
- Fixed: The stop sound for sector-based sound sequences was not played with
the CHAN_AREA flag.
- Removed the distinction between S_Sound() and S_SoundID() functions. Use
S_Sound() for both names and IDs from now on.
SVN r1034 (trunk)
any zone you want.
- Using a too-recent version of FMOD now gives an error, since there may be
breaking changes to the API from one version to the next (excluding
revisions in stable branches, which only represent bug fixes).
- Updated fmod_wrap.h for FMOD 4.16 and corrected a bug that had gone
unnoticed before: The delayhi and delaylo parameters for Channel::setDelay()
and getDelay() were swapped.
SVN r1032 (trunk)
heavily customized version of DUMB (Dynamic Universal Music Bibliotheque).
It has been slightly modified by me:
* Added support for Ogg Vorbis-compressed samples in XM files ala FMOD.
* Removed excessive mallocs from the replay core.
* Rerolled the loops in resample.c. Unrolling them made the object file
~250k large while providing little benefit. Even at ~100k, I think it's
still larger than it ought to be, but I'll live with it for now.
Other than that, it's essentially the same thing you'd hear in foobar2000,
minus some subsong detection features. Release builds of the library look
like they might even be slightly faster than FMOD, which is a plus.
- Fixed: Timidity::font_add() did not release the file reader it created.
- Fixed: The SF2 loader did not free the sample headers in its destructor.
SVN r995 (trunk)
closer to FMOD 3, which downmixed all stereo sounds to mono before
playing them in 3D. Also added experimental 3D spread for stereo sounds
so that you can actually hear them in stereo.
SVN r989 (trunk)
optional freeverb unit.
- Removed ResetEnvironment hack, since with software reverb, losing the
existing reverb when focus is lost isn't a problem.
- Commented out the TiMidity FIXME messages.
SVN r973 (trunk)
- Added very basic Soundfont support to the internal TiMidity. Things missing:
filter, LFOs, modulation envelope, chorus, reverb, and modulators. May or
may not be compatible with TiMidity++'s soundfont extensions.
- Added support for quoted strings to the TiMidity config parser.
SVN r957 (trunk)
of all types on the same linedef. Also added a 'first side only' flag. This
is not usable from Hexen or Doom format maps though but in preparation of
the UDMF format discussed here:
http://www.doomworld.com/vb/source-ports/43145-udmf-v0-99-specification-draft-aka-textmap/
- Changed linedef's alpha property from a byte to fixed point after seeing that
255 wasn't handled to be fully opaque.
- fixed a GCC warning in fmodsound.cpp
SVN r954 (trunk)
there were no designated characters to strip at the end of it.
- Added support for Shoutcast/Icecast playlists.
- Added an error message when a playlist could not be opened.
- Added support for PLS format playlists, in addition to M3U.
- Changed FPlayList to use an array of FStrings.
- Fixed: Playlists required every song to be specified by an absolute path.
SVN r951 (trunk)
waveforms, and three of them are non-negative. This can cause a tendency
for the resulting output waveform to go into very high ranges depending on
the timbres used, and Heretic's exemplify this problem.
- Reduced the OPL volume level slightly.
- Fixed: The waveform view from snd_drawoutput was upside-down.
SVN r949 (trunk)
EMIDI specs: Track designations and exclusions should be ignored past
the initial beat, and EMIDI program change and volume events should be
ignored unless they were used in the initial beat.
SVN r944 (trunk)
could also be because the user selected PCM-Float output, but the driver
doesn't support it (even if it claims to *cough*Audigy XP drivers*cough*).
SVN r943 (trunk)
track off, any ticks that had only events on the disabled track would cause
the delay for that track to be thrown away, and the following notes on
enabled tracks would play too soon. This could be heard quite clearly in
xplasma.mid, where track 4 (FMGlass Drone 1) would interfere with the timing
of tracks 13 and 14 (EP1 Melody and EP1 Echo).
SVN r937 (trunk)
already playing on the channel, it should stop it with finish_note(), not
kill_note(). This can be clearly heard in the final cymbal crashes of
D_DM2TTL where TiMidity cuts them off because the final cymbals are played
with a velocity of 1 before the preceding cymbals have finished. (I wonder
if I should be setting the self_nonexclusive flag for GUS patches to
disable even this behavior, though, since gf1note.c doesn't turn off
duplicate notes.)
- Changed envelope handling to hopefully match the GUS player's. The most
egregious mistake TiMidity makes is to treat bit 6 as an envelope enable
bit. This is not what it does; every sample has an envelope. Rather, this
is a "no sampled release" flag. Also, despite fiddling with the
PATCH_SUSTAIN flag during instrument loading, TiMidity never actually
used it. Nor did it do anything at all with the PATCH_FAST_REL flag.
SVN r934 (trunk)
3D panning.
- The listener's velocity is now set at 0 for the sound engine. The player
moves so fast that you can hear the doppler shift just by running around,
otherwise.
- Changed the sound code so that all sounds that start playing on a single
tic actually start playing at the exact same sample position.
SVN r927 (trunk)
wave file.
- Changed the default channel velocity for MUS files from 64 to 100 to
better match apparent MIDI practice. (Would like to know what this is
supposed to be.)
- Changed the mus2midi channel assignments to match the internal player's.
- Fixed: apply_envelope_to_amp() should clamp the mix levels to 0.
SVN r926 (trunk)
timidity_voices cvar.
- Added stats lines for the OPL and Timidity MIDI devices.
- Completely changed the way TiMidity volume calculations are done. It
should now be extremely close to the output a real GUS would produce with
its official MIDI player (excepting where TiMidity normalizes sample
volumes). The new equations more closely match what is specified by the DLS
and SF2 specs (but not quite), so I presume it's also more musically
correct than what TiMidity (and TiMidity++) do.
SVN r925 (trunk)
before sending it to Channel::getReverbProperties().
- Fixed: The earthquake effect did not play its sound as an actual looping
sound. I'm a bit surprised this only recently started causing problems.
SVN r923 (trunk)
snd_reset would eventually run into the hard limit on the total number
of FMOD::System objects that can be created concurrently (currently 15).
- Added proper error checks to the FMOD initialization process.
SVN r921 (trunk)
- Set note velocity back to using a linear sounding volume curve, although
it's now used to scale channel volume and expression, so recompute_amp()
is still only doing one volume curve lookup.
- Fixed: TimidityMIDIDevice caused a crash at the end of a non-looping song.
SVN r920 (trunk)
- Changed: When loading Zips all patches in the patches/ directory should
be loaded, not only those used by a texture in TEXTUREx.
- Disabled timidity_mastervolume for the internal Timidity again because
with the altered volume calculation it is no longer needed and the default
volume is on the same level as OPL and FMOD.
SVN r909 (trunk)
FMOD_INIT_ENABLE_PROFILE. Renamed the corresponding cvar to snd_profile.
- Removed the normalize parameter from SoundStream::Play().
- Disabled the chorus and reverb effects added to SDL_mixer's Timidity,
because they were probably never tested well, either. Thanks to the bug
in vc_alloc(), they were never even activated.
- Restored the exact frequency range search that was missing from SDL_mixer's
verion of select_sample().
- Fixed: vc_alloc(), kill_others(), and note_on() treated Voice::status as a
bit mask, when it's not. These were changes made to SDL_mixer's Timidity.
- Restored the original Timidity volume equation. The other louder one was
put in when I didn't realize all channels were mono and many notes sounded
too quiet because they never completed their attack phase.
- Fixed: FileReader::Gets() acted as if fgets() always read the maximum
number of characters.
- Fixed: FileReader::Open() did not set FilePos and StartPos to 0.
SVN r908 (trunk)
because it has the same sound volume issues as the external one.
- Replaced use of stdio in Timidity with FileReader and added the option to read
from the lump directory. If the main config file is inside the lump directory
it will assume that everything else is as well. If it is a real file it will be
assumed that the rest is real files as well.
- Fixed: None of the error returns in Timidity::read_config_file closed the file being read.
SVN r906 (trunk)
- Fixed: MinGW doesn't have _get_pgmptr(), so it couldn't compile i_main.cpp.
- Fixed: MOD_WAVETABLE and MOD_SWSYNTH are not defined by w32api, so MinGW
failed compiling the new MIDI code.
- Fixed: LocalSndInfo and LocalSndSeq in S_Start() need to be const char
pointers, since "" is a constant.
- Fixed: parsecontext.h was missing a newline at the end of the file.
SVN r904 (trunk)
particular, this meant that every channel was almost certainly in mono mode,
which can sound pretty bad if the song isn't meant to be played that way.
- Added bank numbers to the MIDI precaching for Timidity, since I guess I do
need to care about banks, if even the Duke MIDIs use various banks.
- Fixed: snd_midiprecache only exists in Win32 builds, so gameconfigfile.cpp
shouldn't unconditionally link against it.
- Fixed: pre_resample() was still disabled, and it left two samples at the end
of the new wave data uninitialized.
SVN r903 (trunk)
channel when restarting the song, rather than emitting a single note off
event which only has a 1 in 127 chance of being for a note that's playing
on that channel. Then I decided it would probably be a good idea to reset
all the controllers as well.
- Increasing the size of the internal Timidity stream buffer from 1/14 sec
(copied from the OPL player) improved its sound dramatically, so apparently
Timidity has issues with short stream buffers. It's now at 1/2 sec in
length. However, there seems to be something weird going on with
corazonazul_ff6boss.mid near the beginning where it stops and immediately
restarts a guitar on the exact same note.
- Added a new sound debugging cvar: snd_drawoutput, which can show various
oscilloscopes and spectrums.
- Internal TiMidity now plays music.
- Changed the progdir global variable into an FString.
SVN r900 (trunk)
can be played as OPL can also be dumped.
- Removed the opl_enable cvar, since OPL playback is now selectable as just
another MIDI device.
- Added support for DRO playback and dual-chip RAW playback.
- Removed MUS support from OPLMUSSong, since using the OPLMIDIDevice with
MUSSong2 works just as well. There are still lots of leftover bits in
the class that should probably be removed at some point, too.
- Added dual-chip dumping support for the RAW format.
- Added DosBox Raw OPL (.DRO) dumping support. For whatever reason,
in_adlib calculates the song length for this format wrong, even though
the exact length is stored right in the header. (But in_adlib seems buggy
in general; too bad it's the only Windows version of Adplug that seems to
exist.)
- Rewrote the OPL dumper to work with MIDI as well as MUS.
SVN r872 (trunk)
Missimp.mid sounds a lot better now, though still a little off.
- Fixed: MIDI files that had ticks with nothing but meta-events did not play
properly. (fixes sonic3_finalboss.mid)
SVN r868 (trunk)
advanced sound options menu. Removed opl_enable from the menu.
- Added OPL synth as MIDI device -3. Since this is based on the MUS player
code, it only supports those events and controllers supported by MUS.
Some of Duke's MIDIs sound awful, but I think that may be more because
it's using different instruments... There's a thread in the MIDI streamer
class that could be taken out for Linux, since it doesn't need to deal
with the Windows Multimedia API, but for now, this is still Windows-only.
SVN r864 (trunk)
floats, so I can write its output directly to the stream buffer. In
addition, this lets me bring the OPL volume level much closer to the
standard MIDI volume.
SVN r863 (trunk)
into a general MIDI player.
- Fixed: Passing false for a stream callback did not stop the stream.
- Removed opl_frequency, since the only time the emulation sounds good is
when it plays at the exact frequency of a real chip.
- Music no longer plays at all when snd_musicvolume is 0.
- Bumped up snd_sfxvolume and snd_musicvolume default values.
