20:47 Revision 46c97ebe (github): Removed MAX_TARGET_PLAYERS limit in jHexen save games. Previous limit was 512 active references. I'd say is pretty unlikely the old limit could be breached but it is theoretically possible, so now its gone.

Changed XL_UnArchiveLines() so that it will work when XG is extended to jHexen (updating activators needs to happen a... danij

18:00 Revision 31b475ed (github): Began commonizing methods used to save references to mobjs/players in save games.

Fixed the updating of mobj/player references when converting from older jHexen save formats which utilized mobj_t->sp... danij

15:52 Revision 89b6cce3 (github): Removed limitations which tied the order of the elements in the thinkerinfo array to the thinker class ids which are used to reference it. This will make maintenance and future development easier. A minor negative is that saving will take a little longer, though I don't think that is much of a concern.

14:49 Revision b6637f1b (github): jHexen ver4: Added type byte for line_t and sector_t.

Added sector class sc_ploff to jHexen's save code (used to reduce the size of an archived sector if none of the floor... danij

14:11 Revision 5320c3c6 (github): Continued work on the common save code.

jHexen now uses the same mechanisms for reading/writing thinkers as the other games.
jHexen now saves a player header... danij

23:59 Revision c635b1fb (github): Fixed missing mobjs after loading jHexen save games (thinkers were being removed after loading due to differences between the jDoom and jHexen save formats.

TODO: Intergrate jHexen's mobj read/write handling with that used for the other games so we don't need a separate pro... danij

22:04 Revision a7f240d5 (github): Fixed inconsistencies between read/write in jHexen save games. Now, save and load works, however this is an issue with loading mobjs (read goes OK but there are none in the game world after load).

danij

19:32 Revision 728b2bd6 (github): Fixed compilation error.

danij

19:26 Revision 8e25e73f (github): More fixed>float conversions in the sector special handling.

danij

2007-03-19

20:05 Revision 3a0cc347 (github): Removed fixed MAXCEILINGS limit in jHexen using the scheme employed in jDoom (which is based on that derived by Lee Killough for BOOM). Previous limit was 30 simultaneous moving ceilings.

danij

19:16 Revision a5966049 (github): Removed fixed MAXPLATS limit in jHexen using the scheme employed in jDoom (which is based on that derived by Lee Killough for BOOM). Previous limit was 128 simultaneous moving platforms.

danij

18:53 Revision dcf8b701 (github): Utilize xsector->specialdata in jHexen in the same way as the other games.

danij

18:19 Revision f8452bde (github): Changed xsector_t orig plane heights: use a struct for each plane's properties (needed for $nplanes).

danij

18:18 Revision 7648cce5 (github): Updated for (new) common/src/p_floors.c

danij

17:37 Revision fe9530e2 (github): Copy xsector_t->xgsector properly in P_CopySector().

danij

17:32 Revision 42ca62b6 (github): Removed xline->specialdata due to it being unused in all supported games.

danij

15:37 Revision d9ab2f0f (github): Added notes about a kludge used in original Hexen to facilitate multiple special thinkers per sector in order to implement "lifts" (moving floor & ceiling).

danij

15:21 Revision 5be29dfb (github): Fixed: After a mimic sector, it was not possible for that sector to then support a special thinker of any description (if the source of the mimic had a thinker at the time P_CopySector() is called). Basically, do NOT copy xsector->specialdata.

This poses the question: when mimicking a sector, should any active special thinkers be copied also? Currently the en... danij

14:33 Revision a3773e1c (github): Moved jHexen's EV_FloorCrushStop() to common/src/p_floors.c

As jHexen features stop-able, crushing floors we'll need to implement an instasis state for floormove_t. danij

14:20 Revision 656ce9e2 (github): Moved common code out of the games' p_floor.c into common/src/p_floors.c

TODO: Cleanup. danij

02:07 Revision 43a161ba (github): Return true from EV_DoPlat() if reactivating a platform in stasis or when starting new platform(s).

Renamed P_ActivateInStasis() to P_ActivateInStasisPlat() to eliminate any possible confusion. danij

01:44 Revision 80bd76d3 (github): Fixed BUG #1656495: I think I've found and fixed the cause of the "thing archive exhausted" issues. Basically, what was happening is that when moving platforms/ceilings were being put into stasis, the thinker's function ptr was set to -1 to indicate it was not a runable function. However, this happens to be the same value as Doomsday uses to indicate a thinker should be removed (NOPFUNC). When determining the number of things thinker_t->func was compared to P_MobjThinker() but when writing the thinkers in P_ArchiveThinkers() thinker_t->func was being compared to NOPFUNC.

Fixed BUG #1651484: Due to active plats/ceilings using the NOPFUNC value, they were not restarting properly because D... danij

danij

19:35 Revision 54534aae (github): Fixed compilation error. Perhaps we should consider renaming ddfont_t->TextOut ?

danij

16:51 Revision b9bac9cd (github): Trying to figure out what is wrong with font loading. Before the control panel is opened, the console title bar is empty. It appears to be a variable-width font loading problem, something to do with fonts being loaded in busy mode also.

skyjake

16:50 Revision 82ff0e78 (github): Do not do GL-related setup during the mapsetup busy worker. Instead, free textures before the busy work mode, and setup the fog only afterwards, during DDSLM_AFTER_BUSY.

jHeretic and jHexen work again. skyjake

16:47 Revision d94baf11 (github): Tweaks to busy mode drawing.

skyjake

16:47 Revision 47701466 (github): Updated Xcode project with source file changes.

14:51 Revision b6d3d3ff (github): Added a couple of asserts to aid in tracking down a rare sigsegv which I believe to be stemming from DL_GetSubSecPlaneLightLinks(). Take 2.

danij

14:44 Revision a40c43b8 (github): Removed call to Z_CheckHeap() in the games' G_Ticker(). If we want to check the heap every tic in debug builds it should be called from the engine at the end of a tic (makes sense?).

danij

14:40 Revision 76c17227 (github): Added a couple of asserts to aid in tracking down a rare sigsegv which I believe to be stemming from DL_GetSubSecPlaneLightLinks().

danij

14:35 Revision 045761ca (github): Disabled texture compression for the UI textures as banding was very noticeable at high resolutions.

danij

01:22 Revision 66533384 (github): Handling of the compatibility option, "neverhangoverledges" was inverted. This meant that the default behavior was that of BOOM and not DOOM. For example, the sergeants in E1M1, below the armor in the room with the twin tech pillars; were able to climb the stairs to get at the player.

20:39 Revision 4b461f0c (github): Cross merged the jHexen save code into the common p_saveg.c However, with jHexen currently not working (due to the thread access problem when purging textures) this new code is currently untested. TODO: Update load/save of the Hexen specific special thinkers so that we don't rely on the layout of the structs. Plus, needs a bit of a clean up.
