from doing prebuffering of the song. This was causing the Linux version to
hang while waiting for input from the pipe, since Timidity hadn't been
started yet. I tried using a select call in the FillStream() method, but it
always seems to return the pipe as having nothing available. Unfortunately,
the game still falls all over itself if Timidity isn't available. Instead
of execvp failing nicely, X errors kill the game. I don't know why it's
doing that. My advice for Linux music: Skip Timidity++ and get a DLS patch
set (/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/gm.dls is probably the most common by far)
and set the snd_midipatchset cvar to point to it. It's faster and also
sounds a whole lot better than the crappy freepats Ubuntu wants to install
with Timidity++.
- GCC fixes.
SVN r858 (trunk)
to be able to save the 3dMidtex attachment info.
- Fixed: The TArray serializer needs to be declared as a friend of TArray
in order to be able to access its fields.
- Since there are no backwards compatibility issues due to savegame version
bumping I closed all gaps in the level flag set.
- Bumped min. Savegame version and Netgame version for 3dMidtex related
changes.
- Changed Jump and Crouch DMFlags into 3-way switches:
0: map default, 1: off, 2: on. Since I needed new bits the rest of
the DMFlag bit values had to be changed as a result.
- fixed: PTR_SlideTraverse didn't check ML_BLOCKMONSTERS for sliding
actors without MF3_NOBLOCKMONST.
- Added MAPINFO commands 'checkswitchrange' and 'nocheckswitchrange'
that can enable or disable switch range checking globally per map.
- Changed ML_3DMIDTEX to force ML_CHECKSWITCHRANGE.
- Added a ML_CHECKSWITCHRANGE flag which allows checking whether the
player can actually reach the switch he wants to use.
- Made DActiveButton::EWhere global so that I can use it outside thr
DActiveButton class.
March 17, 2008 (Changes by Graf Zahl)
- Changed P_LineOpening to pass its result in a struct instead of global
variables.
- Added Eternity's 3DMIDTEX feature (no Eternity code used though.)
It should be feature complete with the exception of the ML_BLOCKMONSTERS
flag handling. That particular part of Eternity's implementation is
sub-optimal because it hijacks an existing flag and doesn't seem to make
much sense to me. Maybe I'll implement it as a separate flag later.
SVN r810 (trunk)
- Added .txt files to the list of types (wad, zip, and pk3) that can be
loaded without listing them after -file.
- Fonts that are created by the ACS setfont command to wrap a texture now
support animated textures.
- FON2 fonts can now use their full palette for CR_UNTRANSLATED when drawn
with the hardware 2D path instead of being restricted to the game palette.
- Fixed: Toggling vid_vsync would reset the displayed fullscreen gamma to 1
on a Radeon 9000.
- Added back the off-by-one palette handling, but in a much more limited
scope than before. The skipped entry is assumed to always be at 248, and
it is assumed that all Shader Model 1.4 cards suffer from this. That's
because all SM1.4 cards are based on variants of the ATI R200 core, and the
RV250 in a Radeon 9000 craps up like this. I see no reason to assume that
other flavors of the R200 are any different. (Interesting note: With the
Radeon 9000, D3DTADDRESS_CLAMP is an invalid address mode when using the
debug Direct3D 9 runtime, but it works perfectly fine with the retail
Direct3D 9 runtime.) (Insight: The R200 probably uses bytes for all its
math inside pixel shaders. That would explain perfectly why I can't use
constants greater than 1 with PS1.4 and why it can't do an exact mapping to
every entry in the color palette.
- Fixed: The software shaded drawer did not work for 2D, because its selected
"color"map was replaced with the identitymap before being used.
- Fixed: I cannot use Printf to output messages before the framebuffer was
completely setup, meaning that Shader Model 1.4 cards could not change
resolution.
- I have decided to let remap palettes specify variable alpha values for
their colors. D3DFB no longer forces them to 255.
- Updated re2c to version 0.12.3.
- Fixed: A_Wander used threshold as a timer, when it should have used
reactiontime.
- Fixed: A_CustomRailgun would not fire at all for actors without a target
when the aim parameter was disabled.
- Made the warp command work in multiplayer, again courtesy of Karate Chris.
- Fixed: Trying to spawn a bot while not in a game made for a crashing time.
(Patch courtesy of Karate Chris.)
- Removed some floating point math from hu_scores.cpp that somebody's GCC
gave warnings for (not mine, though).
- Fixed: The SBarInfo drawbar command crashed if the sprite image was
unavailable.
- Fixed: FString::operator=(const char *) did not release its old buffer when
being assigned to the null string.
- The scanner no longer has an upper limit on the length of strings it
accepts, though short strings will be faster than long ones.
- Moved all the text scanning functions into a class. Mainly, this means that
multiple script scanner states can be stored without being forced to do so
recursively. I think I might be taking advantage of that in the near
future. Possibly. Maybe.
- Removed some potential buffer overflows from the decal parser.
- Applied Blzut3's SBARINFO update #9:
* Fixed: When using even length values in drawnumber it would cap to a 98
value instead of a 99 as intended.
* The SBarInfo parser can now accept negatives for coordinates. This
doesn't allow much right now, but later I plan to add better fullscreen
hud support in which the negatives will be more useful. This also cleans
up the source a bit since all calls for (x, y) coordinates are with the
function getCoordinates().
- Added support for stencilling actors.
- Added support for non-black colors specified with DTA_ColorOverlay to the
software renderer.
- Fixed: The inverse, gold, red, and green fixed colormaps each allocated
space for 32 different colormaps, even though each only used the first one.
- Added two new blending flags to make reverse subtract blending more useful:
STYLEF_InvertSource and STYLEF_InvertOverlay. These invert the color that
gets blended with the background, since that seems like a good idea for
reverse subtraction. They also work with the other two blending operations.
- Added subtract and reverse subtract blending operations to the renderer.
Since the ERenderStyle enumeration was getting rather unwieldy, I converted
it into a new FRenderStyle structure that lets each parameter of the
blending equation be set separately. This simplified the set up for the
blend quite a bit, and it means a number of new combinations are available
by setting the parameters properly.
SVN r710 (trunk)
- Removed the constraint that all $playerreserve SNDINFO commands must come
before the other $player commands.
- Fixed: TArray::Reserve did not construct its newly allocated entries.
- Changed the damage type for drowning from 'Water' to 'Drowning'.
SVN r466 (trunk)
contains a NULL point, so the GetMem() method should fake it by
returning NULL when the string is empty. Reverted p_xlat.cpp to its
old revision.
SVN r465 (trunk)
P_TranslateLinedefs.
- Fixed: ShowErrorPane can be called before ST_NetDone is valid so it has to
check whether it is NULL.
- Fixed: The Megasphere had an incorrect pickup sound.
- Fixed: The new video initialization code could set the screen's Font pointer
to NULL, causing a crash with levels that start in a secret sector.
SVN r464 (trunk)
- The stat meters now return an FString instead of sprintfing into a fixed
output buffer.
- NOASM is now automatically defined when compiling for a non-x86 target.
- Some changes have been made to the integral types in doomtype.h:
- For consistancy with the other integral types, byte is no longer a
synonym for BYTE.
- Most uses of BOOL have been change to the standard C++ bool type. Those
that weren't were changed to INTBOOL to indicate they may contain values
other than 0 or 1 but are still used as a boolean.
- Compiler-provided types with explicit bit sizes are now used. In
particular, DWORD is no longer a long so it will work with both 64-bit
Windows and Linux.
- Since some files need to include Windows headers, uint32 is a synonym
for the non-Windows version of DWORD.
- Removed d_textur.h. The pic_t struct it defined was used nowhere, and that
was all it contained.
SVN r326 (trunk)
- Added support for wrapping midtextures vertically.
- Since zdoom.wad is now zdoom.pk3, the default mapinfos can use full pathnames.
So now they do.
- Fixed: The DSimpleCanvas constructor used a pitch too narrow on screens wider
than 640 pixels when using a non-AMD processor and the processor's L1 cache
line size could not be determined. I think this should fix the issue of
weirdly rendered 8 pixel wide borders on the left and right of the screen that
some people experienced.
- Fixed: The secnodes were never freed.
SVN r93 (trunk)
ParseActorProperties().
- Fixed: The decorate FindFlag() function returned flags from ActorFlags
instead of the passed flags set.
- Fixed: The CHT_CHAINSAW, CHT_POWER, CHT_HEALTH, and CHT_RESSURECT needed
NULL player->mo checks.
- Fixed: The "give all" command didn't give the backpack in Doom, and it
must give the backpack before giving ammo.
- Fixed: P_SetPsprite() must not call the action function if the player is
not attached to an actor. This can happen, for instance, if the level is
destroyed while the player is holding a powered-up Phoenix Rod. As part
of its EndPowerup() function, it sets the psprite to the regular version,
but the player actor has already been destroyed.
- Fixed: FinishThingdef() needs to check for valid names, because weapons
could have inherited valid pointers from their superclass.
- Fixed: fuglyname didn't work.
- Fixed: Redefining $ambient sounds leaked memory.
- Added Jim's crashcatcher.c fix for better shell support.
- VC7.1 seems to have no trouble distinguishing between passing a (const
TypeInfo *) reference to operator<< and the generic, templated (object *)
version, so a few places that can benefit from it now use it. I believe
VC6 had problems with this, which is why I didn't do it all along. The
function's implementation was also moved out of dobject.cpp and into
farchive.cpp.
- Fixed: UnpackPixels() unpacked all chunks in a byte, which is wrong for the
last byte in a row if the image width is not an even multiple of the number
pixels per byte.
- Fixed: P_TranslateLineDef() should only clear monster activation for secret
useable lines, not crossable lines.
- Fixed: Some leftover P_IsHostile() calls still needed to be rewritten.
- Fixed: AWeaponHolder::Serialize() wrote the class type in all circumstances.
