08:45 Revision ad890153 (github): Added cvar: "rend-dev-surface-normals" 1=Enable drawing of world surface normals, for debug.

Fixed a couple of problems with the debug draw of world surface normals and then made available in non-debug builds. danij

09:03 Bug #536: Escape key has no effect.

Perhaps you are using cfg files with old/broken control bindings? Try removing them and see if the problem is resolved. danij

16:42 Revision 80cde069 (github): Fixed bug #2159521: Polyobjs completely missing under *nix. Yet again, this is due to the fact that public symbols are shared between engine and game libraries. As both the engine and jHexen had a PO_InitForMap, the game was actually calling the engine's copy and not it's own. We should try to do something about this as it is a recurring problem.

Also did some cleaning up. danij

15:19 Bug #567: Resolution always resets to 640x480

Yes, that fixed it. At least we should be more careful as to which function name prefixes are used, so that the same ... skyjake

21:05 Bug #543: Polyobjs completely missing

Ok, I'll see if I can find the problem. Most likely its something small. danij

16:30 Bug #543: Polyobjs completely missing

Yeah it's still a problem. The svn head is behaving as before - polyobjs are not present at all. skyjake

07:17 Revision fe9f3a14 (github): Added jHexen: Random class selection via the menu when starting a new game.

Enhanced menu initialization to build the player class and episode selection menus dynamically.

danij

01:12 Revision 550b5a3b (github): Changed jHeretic: When the "extended" version of the IWAD is player, allow the sixth episode to be loaded in singleplayer mode via the menu. However, also display a warning message that this episode isn't designed for that game mode. I didn't even about know these maps until I "bumped into them" while doing other stuff.

Added Text definitions for a bunch more HUD/UI strings that shouldn't be hard-coded.
Fixed problem of missing "Quit G... danij

21:51 Bug #574: Duplicate key hud messages

Is there really any need to inform the player about picking up a duplicate key? danij

21:20 Bug #574 (Closed): Duplicate key hud messages

A little oversight bug in the original Doom that is carried over to Doomsday.

danij

05:50 Revision f47f9620 (github): Fixed (all games): When attempting to save the game whilst not in a map (e.g., during an intermission), the user would be told they can't save because they are dead. Instead, inform them that they can only save their progress whilst in a map.

danij

05:46 Revision 622532e2 (github): References to the flags of a plane via DMU are actually references to the surface flags.

danij

04:34 Revision fd58b3f9 (github): Implemented a simple protection mechanism to prevent the console bind context from being inadvertently deactivated by the user, via the console (heh). The result would otherwise be no way to quit Doomsday.

Added a few usage restriction flags to the various binding system console commands to prevent mods from messing with ... danij

03:52 Revision 1174a506 (github): Removed the old interfaces to the engine's binding and bind context management (obsolete).

danij

03:37 Revision 47710abc (github): Moved the default event binding for opening/closing the menu to the "shortcut" context so that the menu can still be opened when the "game" context is inactive.

danij

03:29 Revision 5cf5b271 (github): Re-termed "bind class" to "bind context" as this is far more descriptive of their purpose.

danij

02:24 Revision 845231d7 (github): Added missing defines for the (temporary) flags to flip materials horizontally/vertically, per-surface. These will disappear once per-surface material scaling is exposed via DMU.

SVN head should now be playable again. danij

01:44 Revision 4ad26d52 (github): Added: New sidedef flag "sdf_middle_stretch". Normally, height of the middle surface on twosided linedefs is clipped to that of the material used on it. If this flag is set, this behaviour is disabled (instead, the surface will stretch from floor to ceiling). This flag can be set via DMU and subsequently XG, using the ltc_wall_texture/ltc_wall_material class.

Implemented for jDoom64. When loading a DOOM64 format map, this flag will be set for all sidedefs automatically in li... danij

01:32 Revision 7d78858d (github): Continued work on revising the interface to RL_AddPoly. Everything is once again working other than the case of surfaces drawn with a modulation texture (first light on surface). For now, disable multi-textured lights "rend-light-multitex 0" until the problem is resolved.

* Revised world texture coordinate generation. Now uses the OpenGL texture matrix for the translation and scaling of ... danij

01:19 Revision e10e1017 (github): Changed: Removed requirement of one (or more) texture definitions during engine start up (PNAMES and TEXTURE1/2 lumps are no longer required).

danij

01:03 Revision e139c32f (github): Changed global variable 'useModels' to byte (was int).

danij

01:01 Revision 1665c643 (github): Split surface flags into public and engine-internal flag sets. The public per-surface flags can now be accessed via DMU and are included in game saves.

danij

00:53 Revision 3790f48b (github): Moved sidedef blending flag definitions from xg.ded to flags.ded (they can be set using DMU).

danij

00:47 Revision c538baba (github): Moved sidedef flag definitions from p_xgline.h to dd_share.h

danij

00:43 Revision df0fe3ce (github): Added: Cvar "rend-dev-nosprite" 1= Display drawing of sprites and masked walls. Not archived.

danij

00:38 Revision 5fec1e6f (github): Moved the automap display list update back to AM_Drawer and implemented a short delay timer to prevent overly frequent updates.

danij

00:36 Revision 21714758 (github): Register all the various DOOM64 map format properties in jDoom64. Rudimentary implementation for converting the sector LIGHT definitions to Doomsday's surface colors.

danij

2008-12-03

23:49 Revision 00957ea2 (github): Changed: Any material can now be flagged as "sky-masking" resolving the previous limitation which allowed only one material and it had to be a flat. Needed for jDoom64 which has no flats and has multiple sky mask textures.

danij

01:46 Revision 3714409f (github): Use the ROM-IWAD names for textures in the jDoom64 decoration definitions.

danij

01:45 Revision c05c2ec1 (github): Removed the anim group definitions for jDoom64 texture animations. Use a similar method to jDoom to build the default set of animations at run time. Added precache groups for the switch texture pairs.

danij

01:43 Revision 21544447 (github): Removed the background flat from the jDoom64 InFine scripts used before/after maps.

danij

01:42 Revision 0933abd6 (github): Deleted the DOOM64TC XG definitions. jDoom64 won't be needing them.

danij

01:41 Revision 4f08b986 (github): Deleted the DOOM64TC XG definitions. jDoom64 won't be needing them.

danij

01:39 Revision 7cca7c9b (github): Added jDoom64: Cvar "hud-title-nomidway" hide the map author string shown at level start if it is "Midway".

danij

01:34 Revision c93d268f (github): Display the floor and ceiling material name rather than the materialnum in the "where" debug cheat info.

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.
