With localization for non-Latin languages on the support list the multibyte API doesn't cut it anymore. It neither can handle system text output outside the local code page nor can an ANSI window receive text input outside its own code page.
Similar problems exist for file names. With the multibyte API it is impossible to handle any file containing characters outside the active local code page.
So as of now, everything that may pass along some Unicode text will use the Unicode API with some text conversion functions. The only places where calls to the multibyte API were left are those where known string literals are passed or where the information is not used for anything but comparing it to other return values from the same API.
This one was particularly nasty because Windows also defines a DWORD, but in Windows it is an unsigned long, not an unsigned int so changing types caused type conflicts and not all could be removed.
Those referring to the Windows type have to be kept, fortunately they are mostly in the Win32 directory, with a handful of exceptions elsewhere.
- GetSystemMetrics can lie about the window border sizes, so we can't
trust it if the executable is flagged as Vista-targetting
(default behavior for VS2012/2013).
- moved default item drop style into gameinfo.
- moved default respawn time into gameinfo.
- moved default inventory max amount into gameinfo.
- turned Heretic's blocking of the sector for LS_Plat_RaiseAndStayTx0 into
a parameter instead of having the game mode decide.

surprised if this doesn't build in Linux right now. The CMakeLists.txt
were checked with MinGW and NMake, but how they fair under Linux is an
unknown to me at this time.
- Converted most sprintf (and all wsprintf) calls to either mysnprintf or
FStrings, depending on the situation.
- Changed the strings in the wbstartstruct to be FStrings.
- Changed myvsnprintf() to output nothing if count is greater than INT_MAX.
This is so that I can use a series of mysnprintf() calls and advance the
pointer for each one. Once the pointer goes beyond the end of the buffer,
the count will go negative, but since it's an unsigned type it will be
seen as excessively huge instead. This should not be a problem, as there's
no reason for ZDoom to be using text buffers larger than 2 GB anywhere.
- Ripped out the disabled bit from FGameConfigFile::MigrateOldConfig().
- Changed CalcMapName() to return an FString instead of a pointer to a static
buffer.
- Changed startmap in d_main.cpp into an FString.
- Changed CheckWarpTransMap() to take an FString& as the first argument.
- Changed d_mapname in g_level.cpp into an FString.
- Changed DoSubstitution() in ct_chat.cpp to place the substitutions in an
FString.
- Fixed: The MAPINFO parser wrote into the string buffer to construct a map
name when given a Hexen map number. This was fine with the old scanner
code, but only a happy coincidence prevents it from crashing with the new
code
- Added the 'B' conversion specifier to StringFormat::VWorker() for printing
binary numbers.
- Added CMake support for building with MinGW, MSYS, and NMake. Linux support
is probably broken until I get around to booting into Linux again. Niceties
provided over the existing Makefiles they're replacing:
* All command-line builds can use the same build system, rather than having
a separate one for MinGW and another for Linux.
* Microsoft's NMake tool is supported as a target.
* Progress meters.
* Parallel makes work from a fresh checkout without needing to be primed
first with a single-threaded make.
* Porting to other architectures should be simplified, whenever that day
comes.
- Replaced the makewad tool with zipdir. This handles the dependency tracking
itself instead of generating an external makefile to do it, since I couldn't
figure out how to generate a makefile with an external tool and include it
with a CMake-generated makefile. Where makewad used a master list of files
to generate the package file, zipdir just zips the entire contents of one or
more directories.
- Added the gdtoa package from netlib's fp library so that ZDoom's printf-style
formatting can be entirely independant of the CRT.
SVN r1082 (trunk)
- Fixed: The MusicVolumes list was allocated with M_Malloc but freed with
delete.
- Fixed: demobuffer was inconsistantly handled with new[]/delete[] and
malloc/free.
- Added used memory tracking to M_Malloc() and M_Realloc(). This
necessitated the addition of an M_Free() call to track frees.
- Removed M_Calloc since it was only used in one place, and can just as well
be done with an M_Malloc/memset pair.
- Bumped DEMOGAMEVERSION for the new net controller codes.

palettes smaller than 256 entries with the shader I wrote for it. Is there
a list of gotchas like this listed some where? I'd really like to see it.
Well, when compiled with SM2.0, the PalTex shader seems to be every-so-
slightly faster on my GF7950GT than the SM1.4 version, so I guess it's a
minor win for cards that support it.
- Fixed: ST_Endoom() failed to free the bitmap it used.
- Added the DTA_ColorOverlay attribute to blend a color with the texture
being drawn. For software, this (currently) only works with black. For
hardware, it works with any color. The motiviation for this was so I could
rewrite the status bar calls that passed DIM_MAP to DTA_Translation to
draw darker icons into something that didn't require making a whole new
remap table.
- After having an "OMG! How could I have been so stupid?" moment, I have
removed the off-by-one check from D3DFB. I had thought the off-by-one error
was caused by rounding errors by the shader hardware. Not so. Rather, I
wasn't sampling what I thought I was sampling. A texture that uses palette
index 255 passes the value 1.0 to the shader. The shader needs to adjust the
range of its palette indexes, or it will end up trying to read color 256
from the palette texture when it should be reading color 255. Doh!
- The TranslationToTable() function has been added to map from translation
numbers used by actors to the tables those numbers represent. This function
performs validation for the input and returns NULL if the input value
is invalid.
- Major changes to the way translation tables work: No longer are they each a
256-byte array. Instead, the FRemapTable structure is used to represent each
one. It includes a remap array for the software renderer, a palette array
for a hardware renderer, and a native texture pointer for D3DFB. The
translationtables array itself is now an array of TArrays that point to the
real tables. The DTA_Translation attribute must also be passed a pointer
to a FRemapTable, not a byte array as previously.
- Modified DFrameBuffer::DrawRateStuff() so that it can do its thing properly
for D3DFB's 2D mode. Before, any fullscreen graphics (like help images)
covered it up.

receives the input focus. When the pane is closed, the focus doesn't
return to any window, so even though the window is still active, it no
longer has the focus and does not receive input events.
- Fixed: The network synch timer was still left running after the game
started. (Windows only)
- Fixed: When a player leaves the game at the exact moment they are being
damaged, the game could crash because their actor still had a valid player
pointer, but the player's mo pointer had been NULLed.
SVN r588 (trunk)
- The net start pane is now given focus when it is created, so it can
receive keyboard input.
- Added playback of the "WeaponPickup" sound when a Hexen net game starts.
- Separated the different startup screens into classes for better
modularization (which I should have done in the first place). (Sorry,
have not done it for Linux yet, so that won't compile as-is.)
SVN r496 (trunk)
of scrunching the startup screen up to make room for it.
- Added the red net notches for Hexen's startup screen.
- Added hprintf and status simulation for Heretic's startup screen.
SVN r495 (trunk)
MAPINFO keyword 'bordertexture' and are settable per map.
- Fixed: When used in DECORATE A_Explode must use A_ExplodeParms.
- Added custom label support to A_Chase. To enable resurrection from the
customizable version I also moved all A_VileChase stuff into p_enemy.cpp.
SVN r437 (trunk)
- Fixed: The screen wipe must be disabled for Heretic's underwater ending. If
not, the wipe will try to mix pictures with different palettes.
SVN r435 (trunk)
wadsrc/Makefile, nor did it use the makefile for cleaning.
- Added ST_NetMessage() for mixing miscellaneous messages with the network
startup meter, since they get mixed in the same space on the Linux terminal
and must be handled properly to avoid looking bad.
SVN r429 (trunk)
- Fixed: The host would let more than the desired number of players connect.
- Decreased the frequency of packets in ST_NetLoop() to two per second.
- Fixed: During the i_net handshaking, guests never verified that the messages
they received were from the host.
- Removed the -net command line option. I'm not sure it even worked anymore.
