21:27 Bug #592: Reset look angle/dir when closing the control panel

Nice work, though, I've just noticed the same issue occurs when closing the game menu. danij

14:38 Bug #592: Reset look angle/dir when closing the control panel

09:55 Bug #592 (Closed): Reset look angle/dir when closing the control panel

Currently, the console player's look angle and direction will warp once they leave the control panel. It would be nic... danij

16:37 Revision 7549616a (github): Fixed a problem with game controls being active while in the control panel.

The following changes were made:

09:40 Bug #546: Spider Boss shoots too high

Scratch that. The line opening range is being calculated correctly. Perhaps its the aimSlope that is off? danij

18:39 Revision 03802c63 (github): Minor tweaks to the positioning of a couple of the menu patches and the menu cursor.

17:46 Revision fb488bed (github): Fixed include branches in jDoom's anim.ded somehow I forgot to update them along with definitions themselves. Run packres.

danij

12:05 Revision 7f32f8a6 (github): Fixed build error reported by gcc under *nix. Interesting that msvc is happy about this, maybe I've pragma'd something I shouldn't have.

12:05 Bug #585: Access violation in dpdehread when playing pl2.zip

Try as I might, I've been unable to subsequently reproduce this problem. I'm going to close this artifact and put it ... danij

11:58 Revision 1c31a75b (github): Fixed problem of renderer resets sometimes leading to garbled textures. The gl texture names reserved in the new deferred upload system were not being released during the reset and consequently, once OpenGL had been "shutdown" they were no longer valid; yet we were attempting to use those names anyway.

Todo: This is currently not a very elegant solution as it exposes GL_Reserve/ReleaseNames publically as unfortunately... danij

11:38 Revision 6e50f5f0 (github): Cleaned up Rend_Console() somewhat.

danij

11:24 Revision cd985bfb (github): Fixed console history buffer navigation. After using Home to jump to the start of the log, subsequent attempts to scroll down would fail. Now uses a sliding "inview" range. Also changed, the algorithm which draws the console to a bottom up version, to make it easier to follow.

09:26 Revision 5d2664e9 (github): Fixed bug all games: #2501751 - method of circumventing logic to prevent abuse of the automap cheats in multiplayer games.

danij

09:11 Revision 38f6cbad (github): Fixed bug jHeretic/jHexen: #2488388 crash during startup if missing AUTOPAGE lump (Blasphemer IWAD). Revert to drawing the automap background as a solid colour. Note; will automatically change automap background colour so as to look similar to the original game.

danij

08:47 Revision 3efdfdba (github): Renamed "Client.ID" and "Doomsday.out" to all lower-case. All other files in the Doomsday install directory are lower case and for some reason, this was bugging me. We'll likely need a clean install for beta6 anyway so hopefully this won't be an issue?

08:41 Revision 50bec061 (github): Fixed bug #2498597: Reversed look up and down controls.

08:26 Revision 4d69e1f9 (github): Fixed file encoding. Surely its about time Microsoft managed to fix this in Visual C? :(

19:29 Revision 8afaff4b (github): Standardized method for referencing materials in the DED reader. Fixed a couple of minor issues which only allowed textures in the MG_TEXTURES group to be used as XG line type, (de)act materials. Updated game definitions (run packres).

danij

17:54 Revision 8432376d (github): When reading Texture Environment definitions, don't split the entries into lists by their materialtextype. Instead, simply use one list.

Allow specifying the Texture Environment for all materials (was just textures/flats). danij

17:41 Bug #586 (Closed): Automap crash in jHeretic/jHexen (if missing AUTOPAGE)

If the AUTOPAGE lump is missing, both jHeretic and jHexen will crash when attempting to display the automap since the... danij

17:07 Revision f7946ed7 (github): Fixed various bugs with the "setaxis" console command due to off-by-one errors when dealing with device axis ids (they are 1-based).

21:09 Revision 3c528c83 (github): Fixed music playback on Mac OS X. The problem was that SDL_Mixer was being used instead of QuickTime, and evidently MIDI playback on SDL_Mixer is broken.

Also, when converting from MUS to MIDI, the temporary file uses the ".mid" extension so that QuickTime knows what to ... skyjake

18:01 Revision 0d17ce05 (github): Fixed all games: During the transition between the GS_INTERMISSION and GS_INFINE game states there is a single gametic where neither the player's view is drawn (gamestate != GS_MAP) or the (de)briefing is visible (an fi script command hasn't yet executed yet the gamestate has already changed to GS_INFINE.
