greater flexibility in what can be replaced (replaced actors need not be ancestors
of actors that replace them) at the expense of not having universal actor
replacement. Instances where replacements work:
- Line specials that spawn things (Thing_Spawn and related)
- ACS spawning commands (SpawnSpot and the like)
- Spawning mapthings at level load time in P_SpawnMapThing()
- Spawning items off of dead dudes in P_DropItem()
- The A_SpawnItem decorate function
- The summon and summonfriend console commands
- ThingCount will count both original actors and their replacements as the same
things.
TBD: Should the ACS inventory functions use replacements too, or not?

yanking the mouse around if they keys haven't been read yet to combat the
same situation that causes the keyboard to return DIERR_NOTACQUIRED in
KeyRead(): The window is sort of in focus and sort of not. User.dll
considers it to be focused and it's drawn as such, but another focused
window is on top of it, and DirectInput doesn't see it as focused.
- Fixed: KeyRead() should handle DIERR_NOTACQUIRED errors the same way it
handles DIERR_INPUTLOST errors. This can happen if our window had the
focus stolen away from it before we tried to acquire the keyboard in
DI_Init2(). Strangely, MouseRead_DI() already did this.
- When a stack overflow occurs, report.txt now only includes the first and
last 16KB of the stack to make it more manageable.
- Limited StreamEditBinary() to the first 64KB of the file to keep it from
taking too long on large dumps.
- And now I know why gathering crash information in the same process that
crashed can be bad: Stack overflows. You get one spare page to play with
when the stack overflows. MiniDumpWriteDump() needs more than that and
causes an access violation when it runs out of leftover stack, silently
terminating the application. Windows XP x64 offers SetThreadStackGuarantee()
to increase this, but that isn't available on anything older, including
32-bit XP. To get around this, a new thread is created to write the mini
dump when the stack overflows.
- Changed A_Burnination() to be closer to Strife's.
- Fixed: When playing back demos, DoAddBot() can be called without an
associated call to SpawnBot(). So if the bot can't spawn, botnum can
go negative, which will cause problems later in DCajunMaster::Main()
when it sees that wanted_botnum (0) is higher than botnum (-1).
- Fixed: Stopping demo recording in multiplayer games should not abruptly
drop the recorder out of the game without notifying the other players.
In fact, there's no reason why it should drop them out of multiplayer at
all.
- Fixed: Earthquakes were unreliable in multiplayer games because
P_PredictPlayer() did not preserve the player's xviewshift.
- Fixed: PlayerIsGone() needs to stop any scripts that belong to the player
who left, in addition to executing disconnect scripts.
- Fixed: APlayerPawn::AddInventory() should also check for a NULL player->mo
in case the player left but somebody still has a reference to their actor.
- Fixed: DDrawFB::PaintToWindow() should simulate proper unlocking behavior
and set Buffer to NULL.
- Improved feedback for network game initialization with the console ticker.
- Moved i_net.cpp and i_net.h out of sdl/ and win32/ and into the main source
directory. They are identical, so keeping two copies of them is bad.
- Fixed: (At least with Creative's driver's,) EAX settings are global and not
per-application. So if you play a multiplayer ZDoom game on one computer
(or even another EAX-using application), ZDoom needs to restore the
environment when it regains focus.
- Maybe fixed: (See http://forum.zdoom.org/potato.php?t=10689) Apparently,
PacketGet can receive ECONNRESET from nodes that aren't in the game. It
should be safe to just ignore these packets.
- Fixed: PlayerIsGone() should set the gone player's camera to NULL in case
the player who left was player 0. This is because if a remaining player
receives a "recoverable" error, they will become player 0. Once that happens,
they game will try to update sounds through their camera and crash in
FMODSoundRenderer::UpdateListener() because the zones array is now NULL.
G_NewInit() should also clear all the player structures.

- Fixed map name checks in idclev, hxvisit, for +map and the titlemap.
- Changed handling of Zips so that the patches/, graphics/, sounds/ and
music/ subdirectories no longer are placed in the global namespace. Instead
new namespaces are defined. These namespaces aren't merged, however and
searching in them either returns a lump inside it or one from the global
namespace when it doesn't come from a Zip file. Proper order of files is
still observed though. As a result proper use of the directories inside Zips
is strictly enforced now so that for example anything used as a patch must be
in the patches/ directory and won't be found anywhere else.
SVN r199 (trunk)
and aren't limited to the script's activator.
- Added GetSectorLightLevel(tag), GetActorCeilingZ(tid) and
SetActorPosition(tid, x, y, z, fog) ACS functions.
- Fixed: First initialization of camera textures should not mark the rendered
lines as mapped.
SVN r198 (trunk)
in all the public versions where monster speed is not fixed point, you
couldn't modify the monster's speed due to a bug in P_Move() anyway. So
there's nothing to be backward compatible with.
SVN r190 (trunk)
- Fixed: The Zip loader loaded all WADs inside a Zip into the lump directory.
This is only supposed to be done for WADs in the root directory.
- Complete restructuring of the map loading code. Previously the only way
to put maps into Zips was to load them as embedded WADs which caused
some problems, most importantly that the map's file name was irrelevant
and the internal map label was used instead. With the new code there
is now a properly defined way to add maps to Zips:
* Maps are placed in a subdirectory called 'maps'.
* Maps are stored as WADs that contain all map related lumps.
* The first lump in the map's WAD directory must be the map label.
* All lumps not belonging to the first map are ignored.
* The map's file name determines the name the map is identified with.
For maps stored this way the internal map label is ignored so with this
method renaming maps is as easy as renaming a file and it is no longer
necessary to manipulate the map label.
With the new code it is also possible to load external maps without
adding them to the WAD list. Type 'open mapfile.wad' in the console
to start such a map.
The new code also performs stricter lump name checks to prevent accidental
loading of non-map data.
SVN r188 (trunk)
monster speeds. Now it uses fixed point so that an actor's speed property
can always be considered is always fixed point. So DoSetActorProperty()
should scale very slow speeds, just like dehacked's PatchThing() has done
for some time now.
SVN r187 (trunk)
dialogs.
- Added Thing_Raise special that allows Arch-Vile like resurrections from scripts
or DECORATE states.
- Added a RadiusDamageFactor property for actors. This replaces the hard coded
factor of 0.25 for Hexen's players.
- Added new SpawnProjectile function to ACS. It's the same as Thing_Projectile2
but the projectile is specified by name, not spawn ID.
- Added MAPINFO option to set the compatibility flags. If this is done these
explicit settings will take precedence over the compatflags CVAR.
SVN r164 (trunk)
data enough (2 bits instead of 8), so it was super loud and aliased.
- Fixes for GCC 4.1: Several type-punned pointer warnings, but more
importantly, declaring a friend function inside a class body is no longer
enough to declare that function globally; you must declare it again outside
the class.
- Upgraded FArchive::SerializePointer so that it can store 32-bit indices.
- ACS printing pcodes now build their string in an FSttring instead of a fixed
sized buffer on the stack.
SVN r145 (trunk)
maps). To use it, compile the ACS files as ordinary libraries placed
between A_START/A_END markers. Then outside the markers, create a lump
called LOADACS. This is just a plain text lump that lists all the libraries
you want to autoload with every map. You can do this with as many libraries
as you want, and LOADACS lumps are also cummulative.
SVN r123 (trunk)
message. When trying to puke a script outside a map it crashed.
- Fixed: The random number generator for large numbers must mask out the
sign bit before performing a modulo.
- Now that the conversation states are pointers there is no need to make
AActor::ConversationAnimation virtual. No class overrides this method
anymore.
- Replaced AMacil1::TakeSpecialDamage with MF5_NODAMAGE.
- Fixed: AMacil2::TakeSpecialDamage and AOracle::TakeSpecialDamage didn't
check whether inflictor was NULL and crashed when used with 'kill monsters'.
- Fixed: Some Strife decorations didn't loop their animation
SVN r113 (trunk)
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)
- Added multiple-choice sound sequences. These overcome one of the major
deficiences of the Hexen-inherited SNDSEQ system while still being Hexen
compatible: Custom door sounds can now use different opening and closing
sequences, for both normal and blazing speeds.
- Added a serializer for TArray.
- Added a countof macro to doomtype.h. See the1's blog to find out why
it's implemented the way it is.
<http://blogs.msdn.com/the1/articles/210011.aspx>
- Added a new method to FRandom for getting random numbers larger than 255,
which lets me:
- Fixed: SNDSEQ delayrand commands could delay for no more than 255 tics.
- Fixed: If you're going to have sector_t.SoundTarget, then they need to
be included in the pointer cleanup scans.
- Ported back newer name code from 2.1.
- Fixed: Using -warp with only one parameter in Doom and Heretic to
select a map on episode 1 no longer worked.
- New: Loading a multiplayer save now restores the players based on
their names rather than on their connection order. Using connection
order was sensible when -net was the only way to start a network game,
but with -host/-join, it's not so nice. Also, if there aren't enough
players in the save, then the extra players will be spawned normally,
so you can continue a saved game with more players than you started it
with.
- Added some new SNDSEQ commands to make it possible to define Heretic's
ambient sounds in SNDSEQ: volumerel, volumerand, slot, randomsequence,
delayonce, and restart. With these, it is basically possible to obsolete
all of the $ambient SNDINFO commands.
- Fixed: Sound sequences would only execute one command each time they were
ticked.
- Fixed: No bounds checking was done on the volume sound sequences played at.
- Fixed: The tic parameter to playloop was useless and caused it to
act like a redundant playrepeat. I have removed all the logic that
caused playloop to play repeating sounds, and now it acts like an
infinite sequence of play/delay commands until the sequence is
stopped.
- Fixed: Sound sequences were ticked every frame, not every tic, so all
the delay commands were timed incorrectly and varied depending on your
framerate. Since this is useful for restarting looping sounds that got
cut off, I have not changed this. Instead, the delay commands now
record the tic when execution should resume, not the number of tics
left to delay.
SVN r57 (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.
