Doomsday Engine

2009-02-02

22:18 Revision 916e3650 (github): Removed graphic file format IO routines from the public API. Currently unnecessary but if such functionality is required in future the engine should arbitrate the process via a generic interface.

15:31 Bug #549: Sound causes Deng to freeze on linux

Kurikai informs me this issue has subsequently been fixed. danij

2009-02-01

22:47 Revision ab02ea06 (github): Fixed (dsdirectsound): Linear to logarithmic sound effect volume translation which resulted in no audible sound if both 3D sound positioning was enabled and the Doomsday sound effects volume control was lower than maximum volume.

danij

21:38 Bug #154: Masked texture lines

Time to bump the priority on this I think. These rendering artefacts are starting to annoy me. danij

21:34 Bug #335: in *nix MIDI hangs Doomsday

According to Kurikai this problem is now fixed in current svn trunk. danij

02:20 Revision 165cf97a (github): No light would probably be a better choice than fullbright.

00:21 Revision 4d62dda3 (github): Fixed intermittent failure of: radius attacks, checks to determine whether attempting to spawn a lost soul inside a wall, archvile corpse search and mobj search used in jHexen for the Cleric's ghosts (among other things). Caused by failure to always increment validcount before doing search via the blockmap.

Todo: This remnant of the public blockmap interface should be removed. The engine should not depend upon the game to ... danij

danij

danij

02:37 Revision 38780bb2 (github): Fixed momentary disappearing of the static world geometry visible in the automap. Defer deletion of the outdated automap display lists until just before we compile replacements. Using the outdated copies until then won't hurt at all. Also reinstated the rotation-aware calculation of the view frame clip box.

15:40 Revision 17e44fa2 (github): Changed the message bind context to acquire all devices as these messages should be responded to before any further events are processed.

danij

14:47 Revision 9f7f9c8d (github): Fixed plane movers which also changed material when the target is reached were not actually doing the the material change due to a DMU type mix up.

danij

2009-01-29

23:32 Revision 4556e918 (github): Began cleaning up the automap. Now that we are using GL display lists for the static map geometry there is no need for manual primitive management. Also reinstated drawing of glowing line specials.

danij

05:27 Revision 204e3c79 (github): Changed: Only maximize the screen and hide the HUD displays if there is currently a demo being played and the player being followed is a camera.

danij

11:16 Revision ca4ad39e (github): Fixed centering of the automap so the origin is always in the center of the automap window. Fixed alignment of the mask texture so that it always stretches to fit the automap window dimensions.

danij

11:13 Revision ca88c5e6 (github): Ensure crosshair lines are always drawn at a constant width, irrespective of the screen resolution (always 1 pixel).

danij

danij

07:19 Revision 99fa4832 (github): Stop gcc complaining "boolean != int" even though we typedef int boolean. Yeah, I know, standards compliant, blah blah.
