Bug #131
Crash with Cheb's Blood Effects
Description
Quote Simon D.:
When i chose the add-on for doomsday last version :
cheb's blood LONG, there is automatically a bug. you
shoot one huy and doomsday freezes. windows must
close the program with error message.
I saw that bug for every version of doom (1 to
final), in exemple (DOOM 1 shores of hell, first
level, first enemy). I tested that bug with a friend
and other PC config and it's the same pb.
BUT when we chose cheb's SHORT blood the game
continues normally.

The problem is in this ded code:
Model {
State = "BLOOD3";
Scale = 2.0;
Offset = 2;
Md2{
File = "decor/blood/tinyblood.md2";
Frame = "Zero";};
}
Copy Model {
State = "SMALLPOOL";
Md2{
Frame = "Frame 1";};
}
State {
ID = "BLOOD3";
Sprite = "BLUD";
Frame = 0;
Tics = 1;
Next state = "SMALLPOOL";
}
This effect create a small poll of blood after shot any enemy.
The code works correctly in Doomsday 1.7.11 and older.

The problem appears to be that Cheb is using a sprite
called POB2. This sprite does not exist in Doom 1. Hence
the crash.
I fixed this by allowing the use of undefined sprites. If
one is encountered, the object is quietly hidden. This
doesn't fix the blood effect but it fixes the crash.
In Doom 2, I don't see any problems with the effect.
