0000074: Bugged bouncing behavior when Hexen bouncetype projectiles with +BOUNCEONACTORS & limited bouncecount hit actors.

Wed, 18 Apr 2018 00:55:37 -0500

It seems when shooting projectiles with the Hexen bouncetype, +BOUNCEONACTORS, and a limited bouncecount at actors... the projectile will bounce infinitely and never die. This behavior didn't always happen, seemed fine in ZDoom 2.5.0, and builds of GZDoom prior to 1.8.6.

0000280: Possibility to link intermission scripts

Mon, 26 Jun 2017 16:01:58 -0500

by using 'enterpic' in mapinfo you can either chose to display a fullscreen image of your next level, or you can create a world map showing which maps you have finished and which you are about to enter.

But there seem to be no option to link multiple of these together. Say the player finish Map01, he gets the kills-count etc. and press use - now the player would enter the world-map and see the map he just finished - and the map he is going to, as the player press use I would like him to move on to a second "enterpic" - or preferably just a continue of it - just link you can use 'link =' in the endgame intermissions to go to the next intermission - if no link = would be present, the press of use would continue to the next level (or to the cluster entertext if any is set'.

I've researched quite a bit, and it seem this kind of action is impossible today, but would be very useful for making more interesting and customisable things between levels. I have tried to "fake" it by creating extra levels that is scripted to end - but if those have intermission enabled they will show a kill-count, and if intermission is disabled they basicly dont do anything for extra intermission options.. so I'd love to see the function added to use something like "link = " inside enterpic lumps to allow to chain more together between levels.

Please tell if I didn't make it clear what I mean, English isn't my primary language :)

0000641: Crash when changing true color mode

Sun, 30 Apr 2017 09:21:40 -0500

I can reliably get a crash in 3.0.0 64 bit when changing to software output and switching true color mode off.

0000642: 'playdemo' CCMD doesn't handle '*' as a map name

Sun, 30 Apr 2017 08:37:56 -0500

When you try to play a demo which was recorded like this:

recordmap blah.lmp *

The demo fails to play with this message:

Could not find map *

0000639: Clipping Rectangle debug display

Sat, 29 Apr 2017 22:33:26 -0500

Often times, figuring out whether your clipping rectangle is correct or not is a LOT of invisible guesswork and can be very frustrating and consume a lot of unnecessary time.

Can there be a debug option to draw where the bounds of the current clipping rectangle is? Like a simple 1-pixel-thickness rectangle or something.

0000637: OGG sounds are sometimes silent on first play

Sat, 29 Apr 2017 08:32:45 -0500

The first time an ogg format sound effect is to be played, it will potentially be silent.

Confirmed in GZDoom g3.0pre-79-gec1aeaf (latest devbuild as of posting)

0000635: Custom HUD disappearing if HUD scaling < 3

Sat, 29 Apr 2017 03:27:23 -0500

Run attached example.

Make sure screenblocks = 10.

You will most probably see an empty HUD, unless the scale setting (either override or the fullscreen HUD scale) is 3 or larger.

Don't know since when this broke but smaller scale values used to not exhibit this bug.

0000633: Console command to reload current map

Fri, 28 Apr 2017 15:19:49 -0500

I'm working on a mod with multiple maps, and it'd be nice to be able to reload a map after making changes in an editor by pressing a single key instead of opening the console and typing "map map01". The single key binding isn't currently possible because the command's argument will change based on which map is loaded. So a new command, named something like "reloadcurrentmap", would be ideal. Bonus: an analogue of this new command for "changemap", ie does same thing but retains the player's inventory and health.

0000630: WeaponGiver pickup failure produces error messages in hubs

Thu, 27 Apr 2017 04:11:29 -0500

If a weapongiver fails to be picked up, returning to the map later in a hub will print a message in the console: "Actor of type [weapon] at (0.000000,0.000000) left without a state"

Confirmed with GZDoom g3.0pre-52-g82b0326 (latest as of posting)

0000624: Exit specials crash

Tue, 25 Apr 2017 14:42:26 -0500

If the value of a player start thing's first argument doesn't match the one passed to one of the exit specials (Exit_Normal or Exit_Secret), the engine crashes when attempting to load the next map.

0000620: ZScript HUD SetClipRect h variable not working

Sun, 23 Apr 2017 05:58:59 -0500

[code=c++]

SetClipRect(0, 1080 - 128, 64, 64);

DrawImage("STARTAN2", (0, 1080), DI_ITEM_LEFT_BOTTOM);

[/code]

This piece of code successfully clips the STARTAN2 texture in half horizontally as expected, but does nothing to it vertically, leaving a 64 * 128 texture on the screen when a 64 * 64 texture was expected.

0000618: Water splash after loading saved game

Sat, 22 Apr 2017 12:00:37 -0500

Replaying Enjay's [url=https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?t=55741">https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?t=55741">https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?t=55741]Waterlab[/url] once again, I noticed one issue upon loading of saved game: some actors do water splash while they shouldn't.

I tracked down the problem to [url=https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/commit/b7b0e644716858928a2f7812cbd3f2f51d7e4b7b">https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/commit/b7b0e644716858928a2f7812cbd3f2f51d7e4b7b">https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/commit/b7b0e644716858928a2f7812cbd3f2f51d7e4b7b]this commit[/url] but found no way to make it work without reverting it.

0000617: Some module music not working with OpenAL

0000409: loop_start tags do not work with OpenAL backend

Fri, 21 Apr 2017 08:07:45 -0500

If an OGG music track contains a loop_start tag, and you are using the OpenAL backend, the loop_start tag is ignored, and the song is repeated from the beginning.

Fri, 21 Apr 2017 03:30:28 -0500

If using OpenAL when loading a new map (must not be part of current map's hub), GZDoom's volume in Windows Sound Mixer will automatically reset itself to match system master volume.
