<p>It is impossible to lower a sector if there is a monster on it, the height of the height is greater than the height of the sector. The sector will lower if the monster is killed.</p> Doomsday Engine - Bug #2385 (New): [Heretic] Deactivating a one-time teleporthttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/23852019-12-31T08:54:53Zsvl1

<p>I have attached definitions for all available game plugins, however this is an issue with the engine rather than the plugins. In short, given that you have one of these addons installed, bloodsplatter effects are rendered over items and enemies, among other things. This can be quite unpleasant when dealing with enemies in large quantities, as they will be hidden by the splatter -- especially when backed up against walls to which the splatter has attached.</p>
<p>Included are screenshots of the issue affecting Chex and Heretic. I have attached definitions for all plugins, however.</p> Doomsday Engine - Bug #2000 (New): [Heretic, Hexen] Finale/hub text must be scaled down to fit (i...https://tracker.dengine.net/issues/20002015-03-20T09:18:30Zskyjake
<p>There is a long standing issue with Heretic and HeXen's finale text not fitting on the screen. Currently there is a workaround where the text in those games is downscaled by default to 0.9.</p>
<p>The issue originates from the unification of the text drawing in the game plugins, where the Heretic/Hexen font metrics seem to be slightly different than the ones used in Doom.</p> Doomsday Engine - Bug #1968 (New): [Heretic, HeXen] Player's death removes footclipping effect (v...https://tracker.dengine.net/issues/19682015-02-11T11:10:57Zvermil
<p>When the player dies whiles footclipped, the footclipping is incorrectly disabled when the player dies (i.e the player view jumps up to it's non-footclipped position when the player dies).</p> Doomsday Engine - Bug #1894 (New): [Heretic] Map that relies on original footclippinghttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/18942014-11-04T00:29:42Zvermil
<p>E1M2 of this Heretic pwad relies on the original games buggy foot clipping in order for the player to be able to pick up the Blue Key.</p>
<p><a class="external" href="http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?file=levels/heretic/a-c/aquaduct.zip">http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?file=levels/heretic/a-c/aquaduct.zip</a></p>
<p>In Vanilla Heretic, footclipping occurred as soon as the players mid point moved over a sector with an appropriate flat.</p>
<p>Dday sometime in the 1.9 series, changed this behaviour so that the player had to actually touch the appropriate flat before footclipping occurred.</p> Doomsday Engine - Bug #1718 (New): Inventory item display/selection issueshttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/17182014-01-25T01:02:37Zdanijdanij@dengine.net
<p>The effective number of active slots is not reset when starting a new game.</p>
<p>Also, in Heretic, there appears to be an issue with keeping track of used slots when the backspace key is used.</p> Doomsday Engine - Feature #1602 (New): Improvements for map title in automaphttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/16022013-10-18T13:56:34Zskyjake
<ul>
<li>add "map-title" cvar to enable automap title specifically</li>
<li>make display of map number optional</li>
<li>Doom: option to always use the Map Info name (override CWILV) like in Heretic/Hexen</li>
<li>Doom|Heretic: display the ExMy number rather than ID (add option)</li>
<li>Hexen: display the "warp" map number rather than the ID (add option)</li>
<li>Hexen: show hub number instead of map number</li>
<li>when screen size shrunk => title goes downward (scaling issue)</li>
</ul> Doomsday Engine - Bug #1032 (New): [Heretic] Badguy auto/raise lower to camerahttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/10322012-04-24T09:31:07Zvermil
<p>Using Heretic's Gargoyles as a test, they continue to lower within melee range, where as in the original game they didn't.</p>
<p>This means that if the player moves forward while in melee with a Gargoyle, it will end up lowering further in Dday than it did in the original game.</p>
<p>I get the impression that the auto/lower to camera only tries to get the Gargoyle into a position where it can hit the player. Once the Gargoyle is in that position, it won't lower further.</p>
<p>This can be observed using the barrels on E1M1. A Gargoyle in the original game will not auto lower below the barrels, where as in Dday it will.</p>
<p>Obviously the above applies to Gargoyles that approach from a position above the players; Gargoyles can be spawned at any height including the floor and can end up at floor height from raising over terrain.</p>

<p>There doesn't seem to be an external text string for this one.</p>
<p>HeXen has no secrets and hence doesn't have a secret found message.</p>
<p><strong>Labels:</strong> Customizability</p> Doomsday Engine - Bug #671 (New): [Heretic] Enemy missile spreads have incorrect vertical aimhttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/6712009-04-14T16:28:28Zvermil
<p>In Heretic in Beta6.1, the non-centre missiles for all bad guy missile spread attacks are being launched at slightly the wrong angle if the player is above or below the missiles spawn height.</p>
<p>If the player is above, the non-centre missiles are aimed slightly too low and if the player is below, they are aimed slightly too high. The centre missile is aimed correctly.</p>
<p>The Heretic bad guys with missile spread attacks are the Disciple, Maulotaur and D'sparil's serpent (once he takes enough damage in the case of the later).</p>
<p>Similar attacks in JDoom and JHeXen appear to be unaffected.</p>
<p><strong>Labels:</strong> Heretic</p> Doomsday Engine - Bug #665 (New): [Heretic] Some missiles should not splashhttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/6652009-04-13T19:07:50Zvermil
<p>As the summary states. In the original Heretic, most missiles do not cause splashes when they impact on liquid. The only exceptions were the trail of blood from the Undead Warriors red axe and the Maulotaurs ground flame when it changes height (i.e. it goes up or down a step).</p>
<p>In Beta6.1 all missiles and also blood splats cause splashes.</p>
<p>That said, though this behaviour does differ from the original game and earlier versions of Dday, it may actually be an intentional non-gameplay affecting change made by Deng team (i.e it is more realistic that missiles cause splashes rather than being oddly exempt as in the original game)?</p>
<p><strong>Labels:</strong> Heretic</p> Doomsday Engine - Feature #1459 (New): Replacement of MT_POD unique behavior with flaghttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/14592008-02-18T18:06:50Zvermil
<p>More an extension rather than a brand new feature request.</p>
<p>Heretic has a shootable object that isn't auto aimmed at, if you have auto aim on, in the form of it's Puff Pods (MT_POD).</p>
<p>A rumage through the part of the Dday src that handles auto aimming (p_map.c in common) reveals this is handled by an exception in which Dday simply checks wheter any of the shootable things in the players view have an ID of "POD".</p>
<pre><code class="c syntaxhl"><span class="CodeRay"> <span class="comment">// shoot a thing</span>
th = in->d.thing;
<span class="keyword">if</span>(th == shootthing)
<span class="keyword">return</span> <span class="predefined-constant">true</span>; <span class="comment">// can't shoot self</span>
<span class="keyword">if</span>(!(th->flags & MF_SHOOTABLE))
<span class="keyword">return</span> <span class="predefined-constant">true</span>; <span class="comment">// corpse or something</span>
<span class="preprocessor">#if</span> __JHERETIC__
<span class="keyword">if</span>(th->type == MT_POD)
<span class="keyword">return</span> <span class="predefined-constant">true</span>; <span class="comment">// Can't auto-aim at pods</span>
<span class="preprocessor">#endif</span>
</span></code></pre>
<p>If this could be done with a new flag instead of checking for the specific thing ID, it would allow a bit more creativity for mod makers at the cost of very little work to code in (I think it's even within my ability :p).</p>
<p>And before you ask, yes I have already got ideas for such a flag if it was implemented.</p> Doomsday Engine - Bug #388 (New): Missile speeds (steep vertical angles)https://tracker.dengine.net/issues/3882006-12-18T00:22:03Zdavecousineaudavecousineau@users.sourceforge.net
<p>Couple problems with missile calculations in jHexen.</p>
<p>1 - Frost Shards. When aiming at a very high or very low angle, the angle that the shards are fired at is less than what is aimed for (with the exception of a single shard)</p>
<p>2 - Dark Bishop projectiles don't seem to include vertical distance in the time/speed/distance formula. In the forsaken outpost level there are dark Bishops at the bottom of a very deep chasm (behind the island of rock with repulsion discs on it). When shooting at the player from the bottom of the chasm the enemies missiles travel nearly instantaneously (straight up) to the player. There is almost no horizontal distance, but a huge vertical distance.</p>
<p><strong>Labels:</strong> Hexen</p> Doomsday Engine - Feature #1316 (New): HHE supporthttps://tracker.dengine.net/issues/13162004-01-01T15:13:48Zben2k9ben2k9@users.sourceforge.net
<p>Although the Heretic Hack Editor has been discontinued <br />(WHY???) it would be nice to have HHE support, just like <br />Dehacked patches (they are different, .deh files are <br />incompatable with Heretic).</p>
