- Fixed: If you enlarged the game window (in windowed mode) so that the
window is bigger than the selected resolution, the menu would still take
its inputs from the portion in the upper left that matched the
resolution.
defaults to 200. Setting it to 0 will restore the previous behavior of having no frame rate
limit. Note that vid_maxfps 35 is NOT the same as cl_capfps 1. cl_capfps caps the frame rate
by tying the video update directly to the game timer. With vid_maxfps 35, the video update and
game timer are running on separate timers, and results will not be as good as with cl_capfps 1,
which uses only one timer.

the one responsible for the palette change.
- Fixed: DDrawFB::CreateSurfacesComplex() starting tries at 2 instead of 0 is not "debugging cruft"
since it counts down, not up. (Partially reverts r3195)
SVN r3733 (trunk)
also decided to compile some other shaders slightly differently, too.)
- Fixed: The InGameColormap had been designed without taking alpha into consideration.
As the least likely parameter to be used, desaturation has been moved into a constant
register to make room for the alpha parameter to live in the vertex's color value.
SVN r3208 (trunk)
- Fixed: When DDrawFB::Lock() has to recreate resources, it left the LockCount at 0. This causes
problems if something else locks it before it is unlocked, because the second locker will
think it is the first. This happens in R_RenderViewToCanvas(). See DDrawFB::PaletteChanged()
for the most common reason why Lock() would need to recreate resources.
- Fixed: DDrawFB::CreateSurfacesComplex() had debugging cruft left in that skipped all but the
last attempts.
- Fixed logging of video debug info to a file to not multiply define dbg.
SVN r3195 (trunk)
swap between them each frame. The one that's not the TempRenderTexture is used
as the FrontCopySurface without the need for a copy operation. This removes the
performance penalty the previous commit introduced for these modes.
SVN r2014 (trunk)
properly in letterboxed modes.
- Added another surface to receive a copy of the top back buffer immediately
before it is presented. This effectively produces a copy of the front
buffer without the performance penalty of GetFrontBufferData, so fullscreen
wipe preparation and screenshots are faster now. At lower resolutions,
always copying the backbuffer does incur a slight FPS hit, but it's
practically free at higher resolutions.
SVN r2013 (trunk)
assumed that since the wipes only run at 35 FPS, the time spent DMA'ing
it from system to video memory would be acceptable. Apparently I was wrong.
In particular, updating the same surface several times probably has to
synchronize between each one, making melt particularly slower than it
needs to be.
SVN r2012 (trunk)
player sprites will retain the same precision they had when they were
rendered as part of the 3D view. (needed for propery alignment of flashes
on top of weapon sprites) It worked just fine for D3D, but software
rendering was another matter. I consequently did battle with imprecisions
in the whole masked texture drawing routines that had previously been
partially masked by only drawing on whole pixel boundaries. Particularly,
the tops of posts are calculated by multiplying by spryscale, and the
texture mapping coordinates are calculated by multiplying by dc_iscale
(where dc_iscale = 1 / spryscale). Since these are both 16.16 fixed point
values, there is a significant variance. For best results, the drawing
routines should only use one of these values, but that would mean
introducing division into the inner loop. If the division removed the
necessity for the fudge code in R_DrawMaskedColumn(), would it be worth it?
Or would the divide be slower than the fudging? Or would I be better off
doing it like Build and using transparent pixel checks instead, not
bothering with skipping transparent areas? For now, I chop off the
fractional part of the top coordinate for software drawing, since it was
the easiest thing to do (even if it wasn't the most correct thing to do).
SVN r1955 (trunk)
at just fixing it at a specific value, since the supply of SM14 cards isn't
all that diverse and all from ATI, but apparently Radeon 8500s and 9000s
have different precision levels in their pixel shaders. See bug report
<http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?p=444523>
- Removed unused variables FBFormat and PalFormat.
SVN r1901 (trunk)
Mobility Radeon 9000 (on a PCI card, no less!), I have decided to give the
PS14 support some loving: D3D windowed gamma now works on these cards using
a texture lookup for the gamma table. Sadly, this halves my framerate, so
setting gamma to 1 will skip the gamma correction, as it was before, for
full speed. (On my 8800 GT, the gamma correction was free.)
SVN r1898 (trunk)
surfaces are alternately locked for read-only access each frame, forcing
the driver to stop buffering more than one frame at a time. The input lag
on my system doesn't seem to be as bad as it once was (I can no longer
see it obviously with my naked eye), but turning antilag on "feels"
slightly more responsive. The cvar d3d_antilag turns this technique on and
off. See <http://www.xyzw.de/c120.html> for more details.
SVN r1870 (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.
SVN r1858 (trunk)
took far too long to reach this point.) Manual axis configuration is
currently disabled, since I need to rewrite that, too. The eventual point of
this is that the code will be modular enough that I can just plop in
routines for XInput controllers and driver-less PlayStation 2 adapters
without much fuss, since the old joystick code was very much DirectInput-
centric.
SVN r1672 (trunk)
fact that NVidia's don't report it, even though they support it. If there
are any cards that no longer have antialised lines on the automap, please
let me know.
- Added vid_hwaalines cvar to force antialiased lines off for the
Direct3D renderer, in case it doesn't really support them.
SVN r1210 (trunk)
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)
- 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.

can share the same hardware texture. This greatly reduces the number of
DrawPrimitive calls that need to be made when drawing text (or any 2D
graphics in general), so now hardware text is much faster than software text
all around. (As an example, one scenario went from 315 fps to over 1635 fps
for hardware, compared to 540 fps for software.)
SVN r687 (trunk)
- Modified M_DrawFrame() and R_DrawTopBorder() so that they call FlatFill() to
draw the edges of the frames. This at least seems a bit faster for hardware
2D.
- Implemented FlatFill() for D3DFB. It seems to be exactly as fast as the
default implementation that just calls DrawTexture() to tile the pieces onto
the screen, so I'm not sure it was worth the bother.
SVN r686 (trunk)
vertex buffer, made line batching automatic, and added an index buffer for
use when batching quads. The index buffer actually offered more of a
performance boost than simply batching the quads alone did.
SVN r685 (trunk)
players are on teams.
- Set TEAM_None back to 255. Since a player's team has already been accessible
through ACS, needlessly redefining this is a bad thing to do, since it can
break existing maps. 255 different teams should still be more than enough.
- Fixed: At certain resolutions, there was a one pixel row between the status
bar and the rest of the screen, thanks to rounding error.
- Added automatic batching of quads to D3DFB. Screens with a lot of text are
ever-so-slightly faster now, though still only about half the speed of
sofware-only text. I suppose the only way to see a marked improvement is
going to be by stuffing multiple glyphs in a single texture.
- Fixed: Crosshairgrow's animation was not framerate-independent.
SVN r668 (trunk)
and into the vertex data.
- Added functions for doing line drawing with Direct3D, including a new pair
of functions to do batched line drawing so that the map can actually be
drawn faster in hardware than in software (instead of an order of magnitude
slower).
SVN r663 (trunk)
shader seems to be producing crappy output, so it's disabled for now.
Specifically, it produces distorted output at regular intervals for
textures that aren't power-of-2-sized, and it's still doing visible
filtering when the texture is rendered at its original size, so
obviously it's not doing something right.
- Fixed the use of power-of-2-sized native textures for smaller game
textures again.
- Fixed: D3DFB did not restore all the state it needed to after resetting
the device.
- Fixed: R_DrawTopBorder() must clip itself around the 3D view, since it's
now drawn later.
- With full software rendering, palette flashes once again effect the whole
screen.
Changes I neglected to put in the previous commit log:
- Moved the view border drawing into the 2D mode part. When using Begin2D()
now, the only part of the software buffer that gets updated to the screen
is the part with the actual 3D scene and only if you tell it to.
- Fixed a D3D memory leak on every frame in windowed mode and the same thing
for the screen wipes. Note to self: If it's an interface, be sure to
Release it, because it will be AddRef'ed before being returned to you.
- Moved the BlendView() call out of FBaseStatusBar::Draw() so that it can be
applied before copying the 3D scene to the screen underneath the 2D parts.
- Restored the console's darkening level to its old table-based amount.
- Fixed D3DFB::SetColorOverlay()'s incorrect calculations.
- Fixed the D3D screen wipes for letterboxed modes.
SVN r662 (trunk)
since I couldn't think of any reason why it should be grabbed at any other
time. (This only applies to windowed mode, where it makes sense to let the
OS have control of the pointer.)
SVN r661 (trunk)
a long-abandoned experiment to write directly to video memory instead of
to a temporary buffer in system meroy.
- Added Direct3D versions of the melt and burn screenwipes.
- Fixed the strip sizes for the melt screenwipe to match what Doom would have
produced on a 320x200 screen, rather than producing more, thinner strips
for wider screens.
SVN r659 (trunk)
allocated. (I wonder if D3D actually handles this automatically when you use
D3DPOOL_MANAGED, because I'm pretty sure my laptops's x300 doesn't support
non-power-of-2 texture sizes, yet it worked just fine before.)
- Fixed vertical positioning of 2D elements in letterboxed modes.
SVN r653 (trunk)
drawn to a texture, then that texture is copied to the real back buffer
using a gamma-correcting pixel shader. In fullscreen mode, SetGammaRamp
is used.
- Fixed flashing of vid_fps display when fps > 1000.
- Fixed loading of RGB textures for native 2D mode.
- Changed the first rotozoomer's data because it just became too obvious when
the backdrop is drawn with a full 256 distinct colors available.
- Set the player backdrop to update no more frequently than 35 FPS, so opening
the player setup menu before starting a game won't produce a very fast
moving backdrop.
- Changed the player backdrop into a texture so that it can be drawn like
anything else.
SVN r648 (trunk)
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.
SVN r640 (trunk)
- Added a new color parameter to DCanvas::Clear() that specifies the
ARGB value of the color. This is used if the old color parameter,
which specifies a palette entry, is -1.
SVN r617 (trunk)
