Bug #1969
[Doom] Multiplayer intermission using incorrect header graphics
Description
A little mistake in inlude.ded
The patch replacements for WIOSTS and WIFRGS should read 'SCRT' and 'FRGS' instead of 'SECRETS' and 'FRAGS', to match the original game.

All current versions of libdoom's inlude.ded seemingly use the correct names for these patches. Maybe this is a report about an earlier version?

Vermil, have you confirmed that libdoom's inlude.ded is not using the correct names in the latest builds?

Sorry, I thought DaniJ had deleted his comment (the 'comment's' tab, that is displayed by default is sometimes erratic with regards to what, if any, comments it displays; it didn't show DaniJ's for instance), which I thought meant he had realized this issue still persisted in the latest unstable and deleted his comment as a result.
But yes, this issue hasn't been fixed in the latest unstable. It's a tiny tiny thing, but it makes Dday look unprofessional that the current incorrect words overlap each other on the intermissions because of their length, which is probably why ID made patches with shortened versions of the words.

I've noticed this, too. I dug into the Redmine plugin that handles this, and fixed a bug that omitted the comment if it had both metadata changes and text notes. Now all the text notes should appear as one would expect, regardless of whether the metadata is changed at the same time.

Ah so the report is actually about the text replacement strings not being abbreviated, rather than their replacing the wrong patches? If so that was not at all clear in the original report.
