Doomsday Engine

2008-11-27

01:07 Revision f742e406 (github): Fixed a type in wadmapconverter/src/load.c which caused the vertexes of DOOM format maps to be scrambled during load.c

A few minor changes in the handling of DOOM64 LIGHTS lumps. danij

00:49 Revision 44ba80af (github): Added a working algorithm for decompressing DOOM64 format, compressed data. This is still somewhat early and requires a lot more study so it can be documented fully.

Has been tested and proven to work with all texture and map data lumps in the original DOOM64 ROM-embedded IWAD on bo... danij

10:37 Revision edaca130 (github): Clean up.

danij

10:26 Revision 45d621d7 (github): Fixed problem in FH_Clear() which would attempt to dereference a NULL ptr if the file name hash table hadn't already been initialized.

danij

10:24 Revision 5e5e9ba6 (github): Made the endian swapping routines available on little endian architectures. We'll need these when dealing with DOOM64 lumps (which are big endian).

14:35 Revision a6b8c8b9 (github): Added cvar rend-light-attenuation: Maximum light attenuation distance, default = 1024.

06:15 Revision 7f799f88 (github): Implemented support in dpWADMapConverter for reading DOOM64 format maps. Caution: this is entirely untested as yet and is a literal interpretation of the ROM disassembly. We cannot yet read the ROM-IWAD correctly. None of the new map element properties are yet implemented in jDoom64 so even if we could load the IWAD and this code does work and, and... the maps still wouldn't look right.

danij

06:04 Revision 15a285af (github): Added a new method of material look up using the original texture/flat/sprite/etc index plus a material group.

danij

06:01 Revision a03f59bf (github): Added missing newline at end of warning message in R_ReadTexureDefs.

10:21 Revision 5a26885b (github): DD_GAMETIC, DD_OPENRANGE, DD_OPENTOP, DD_OPENBOTTOM and DD_LOWFLOOR are now special values not integers so moved into the correct place in DD_GetVariable.

danij

03:05 Revision 822fcd02 (github): Redesigned the automap to alleviate slowdown evident on large maps. Rather than traverse the world each render frame, allocate space to store a copy of the map and only update when necessary (e.g., a new linedef is seen for the first time). Take advantage of OpenGL display lists.

Todo:
* Currently, there is no fall back for when display lists are not available (just the Rage chip-set?).
* Glowin... danij

02:49 Revision 680c4d86 (github): Began refactoring the interface to the rend lists (i.e. RL_AddPoly) with the following goals:

* Currently only our domain-specific primitives quad/divquad/flat can be added to the rend lists. Instead we should b... danij

02:08 Revision 6c2e06b4 (github): Moved blockmap dimension macros to p_bmap.h as these are no longer needed publicly.

danij

02:07 Revision 53f71e3b (github): Added new routines to handle the determination of whether detail textures or reflections are to be used with a particular material (is it from an PWAD? Does the definition allow this? etc...).

danij

01:52 Revision e3beed5a (github): Extended the rendpoly allocation so that rtexcoords can be allocated dynamically also. This is just a temporary measure until the interface to the rend lists is revised.

danij

01:44 Revision 51e9161e (github): Don't bother precaching DDTEX textures as under normal use (and with well built maps) we won't need them.

Move GL_SelectTexUnits to gl_texmanager.c temporarily. danij

00:12 Revision ebe016eb (github): Redesigned algorithms for reading PNAME patch definitions and TEXTURE1/2 texture definitions.

Unfortunately, due to the DOOM engine only using the last found TEXTURE1/2 lumps in order to add new texture definiti... danij

2008-11-16

23:45 Revision 9aa9870c (github): Added flags for Detail and Reflection definitions to govern when the definitions will be used (with IWAD, with PWAD etc), analogous to those for Detail textures.

danij

23:38 Revision 763a82a0 (github): Moved constant defines for DD_GAMETIC, DD_OPENRANGE, DD_OPENTOP, DD_OPENBOTTOM and DD_LOWFLOOR out of the section listing integer values for use with Set/Get (they are no longer integers).

Added new DMU property name DMU_DXY which returns both X and Y deltas, as a convenience instead of requiring two DMU ... danij

23:34 Revision 9d190c29 (github): DD_GAMETIC is now queried via DD_GetVariable rather than DD_GetInteger but returned as timespan_t in fractional seconds.

danij

18:06 Revision 764771b7 (github): Fixed various problems with the draw routine for the text entry backgrounds seen in the menu (e.g., for save/load menus).

15:50 Revision 8cb00682 (github): Fixed problem of the shortcut keys (quicksave, help etc...) not working from the title screen unless the menu was active. Resolved by creating a new bclass called "shortcut" which sits above "menu" in the stack. Also relocated the actioning of the "any key; show menu" to the fallback responder. However this now shows that we need another binding class that contains the in-game controls (movement, show automap etc...) which sits above the default "game" bclass and is only active when in a map (otherwise events which are bound to impulses/ccmds will never reach the fallback responder and thus not all keys will show the menu when in the title loop).

14:17 Revision 14aa37c5 (github): Fixed ST_ARMS positioning issues with the statusbar draw in jDoom with the HACX mod.
