Note that the Strife status bar does not draw the health bars yet. I tried to replace the hacky custom texture with a single fill operation but had to find out that all the coordinate mangling for the status bar is being done deep in the video code. This needs to be fixed before this can be made to work.
Currently this is not usable in mods because they cannot initialize custom status bars yet.
This method was chosen because it avoids adding variable declarations to the global namespace which would have required a lot more work while polluting the grammar.
This way the global variables can be handled by a small bit of special coding in the struct generator.
Most of those which still rely on ZDoom's own definition should be gone, unfortunately the code in files that include Windows headers is a gigantic mess with DWORDs being longs there intead of ints, so this needs to be done with care. DWORD should only remain where the Windows type is actually wanted.
This was a tweak that only makes sense when the scaling factors are low, i.e. 2 vs. 3, but for modern high resolutions it will enlarge things a bit too much.
Needless to say, this is simply too volatile and would require constant active maintenance, not to mention a huge amount of work up front to get going.
It also hid a nasty problem with the Destroy method. Due to the way the garbage collector works, Destroy cannot be exposed to scripts as-is. It may be called from scripts but it may not be overridden from scripts because the garbage collector can call this function after all data needed for calling a scripted override has already been destroyed because if that data is also being collected there is no guarantee that proper order of destruction is observed. So for now Destroy is just a normal native method to scripted classes
- some reorganization of texture precaching so that the renderer can decide what to do with actors.
Just marking the sprite textures loses too much info if more is needed than just loading the images into memory.
- Clang's optional runtime array bounds checking doesn't understand when we
intentionally "overflow" by doing this:
RGB32k[0][0][colorval]
It will warn that it was accessed at an index will past the bounds
of type 'BYTE [32]', which makes it less than useful for catching real
array bounds overflows. So now do this:
RGB32k.All[colorval]
And if you want this:
RGB32k[r][g][b]
Now do this:
RGB32k.RGB[r][g][b]
- Fixed: When locating WhiteIndex and BlackIndex in the palette index 0 was skipped.
- Fixed: When filling an area black for vid_fps or pillarbox/letterbox use GPalette.BlackIndex instead of assuming palette index 0 is black.

- Initialize the alt HUD explicitly in D_DoomMain.
- don't let S_UnloadReverbDef leave a broken list of sound environments behind.
- Added more code to explicitly delete data before initializing it.
SVN r3039 (trunk)
only has 64 entries and is not precise enough. It now uses finesine instead.
- fixed: When compositing a multipatch texture any patch that is a multpatch
texture itself and contains rotations may not be composited directly into
the destination buffer. This must be done with an intermediate buffer.
- Fixed: Drawing a slider in the options menu did not scale the x-coordinate.
- Fixed: If the alt HUD had to draw negative numbers the minus sign was misplaced
due to incorrect texture coordinate calculations.
- changed option menu scaling for widescreen modes so that it doesn't scale down
so quickly.
- made some error messages in DECORATE that don't affect the parsing non-fatal
so that the parser can continue to find more problems.
SVN r2076 (trunk)
a mild performance increase it's not what I hoped it would do...
- Moved portal initialization for the portal things to P_SpawnSpecials
instead of having the things self-initialize in PostBeginPlay. This was
done to ensure that the portals are fully set up when the game begins.
Otherwise there is no decent way to let the renderer post-process this
information during setup.
- Changed: For 800x600 the default scaling handling of the options menu
makes it become too small so for any resolution with a width between
800 and 959 it has been reverted to the regular clean scaling factor.

onscreen. In addition, it now uses the whole height available to it. Also,
at lower resolutions, items on the compatibility options menu now cut off
the beginning of the option label rather than the option setting, making
this menu useable where previously it was not.
SVN r2044 (trunk)
changing game code.
- made SpawningMapThing an argument of AActor::StaticSpawn instead of a global
variable.
- added a stub to the DECORATE parser for defining dynamic lights directly
in DECORATE. This is needed so that ZDoom remains compatible with any DECORATE
which uses this GZDoom feature in the future.
SVN r1935 (trunk)
completely ignore them, either).
- Separated light level fixing out of player_t's fixedcolormap parameter.
Using a fixed light level (e.g. PowerTorch) will no longer wipe out
colored lighting.
- Moved the blending rectangle drawing into a separate discrete stage, since
doing it while copying the 3D view window to the display now blends
underneath the weapon instead of on top of it.
- Consolidated the special colormaps into a single 2D table.
- Tweaked the special colormaps slightly to make the true color results more
closely match the paletted approximations.
- fb_d3d9_shaders.h was getting unwieldy, so I moved the shaders out of the
executable and into zdoom.pk3. Shaders are still precompiled so I don't need
to pull in a dependancy on D3DX.
- Added a few more shaders to accomodate drawing weapons with all the in-game
lighting models. These are accessed with the new DrawTexture tags
DTA_SpecialColormap and DTA_ColormapStyle.
- Player weapon sprites are now drawn using Direct3D and receive all the
benefits thereof.
