Two commits ago, I softened the effect the red palettes had to avoid
the last one being pure-red. While I still think it should be a
little visible on the last one, it was maybe a bit too visible. This
might be a balance between the two.
With WAD merging with certain Doom 2 mods (eg,
doom2/Ports/megawads/strg), using a sprite in this texture causes some
engines to crash on loading the game. The mod makes up its new BOSF*
sprites but omits BOSFA0, which caused our game to crash when trying
to load Freedoom with Struggle.
This can break Plutonia mod compatibility a bit if they try to replace
this sprite too, but let’s hope that will not happen.
Python 2 is very near end-of-life, and Python3-compatible changes to a
few scripts introduced compatibility problems with 2.7 again. It went
unnoticed for me since my system symlinks "python" to "python3", but
it broke the build on systems where that symlink is still python2. At
this point in time, I feel it is worth targetting modern Python and
forgetting about 2.7.
Organize .gitignore by moving all patterns into a top level sorted
.gitignore file. With this change both "git status" and
"git-ls-ignore-index" should return cleanly. The later checks if any
files in the index are ignored.
Using the black code reformatter, pass it over all our Python files.
This allows for a consistent style across the code base.
Exception: lumps/dmxgus/stats.py, for readability.
This is one of the built-in variables for Make and can increase
portability on different operating systems (eg, on Windows, the
built-in $(RM) may be defined as "del" instead of "rm -f").
Now that we always include all textures in every IWAD, the configuration
is significantly simpler. The #defines we previously used to control
the conditional logic are now redundant.
Deduplicates effort from copying between multiple patch files, and we
now have unique outputs for each of our IWADs.
Having just "No Clipping 1 = idclip" proved to be troublesome with at
least prboom-plus, the engine running its cheat detecting twice and
becoming unable to activate no-clipping mode. Worked around it by
also defining "No Clipping 2 = idspispopd", restoring that cheat's
functionality in most source ports and keeping both variants unique.
Chocolate Doom will only use the "idclip" version.
We have been operating since the beginning with the idea of only
including matching compatible textures for Phase 1 and 2 based on the
textures that appeared in Doom 1 and 2, including keeping some
exclusive to each game.
This is artifically limiting to map creators and there is no good
reason to keep it this way. Fixes#588
Might have been a nice idea to be able to run under absolutely any
Doom engine, this has caused problems with PrBoom-Plus for
compatibility, with that engine detecting our game as a BFG Edition
IWAD and applying certain workarounds that don’t actually make sense
in this case.
It is a rather niche use case to run under BFG Edition, and proper
PrBoom-Plus compatibility is much preferred.
Some mods (eg, crusades.wad) try to use SKY4 to (re)define other
textures, which doesn’t work in vanilla Doom, and the normal E4 sky
ends up creating a medusa effect.
While it is sad to see our light source go, reducing the effectiveness
of Double Impact’s lighting effects built into some of the maps, we
should prefer mod compatibility with Ultimate Doom.
Resolves#589
Except for SKAG which is an ancronym, the rest of these belong in
lowercase as they are not proper nouns.
Unlikely to actually have a visible impact in-game, but it is nice to
follow English convention in the source.
* More intermission text adjustments
I still hate that "...", but I'm starting to think the aggravation is not really that itself but the use of a direct quote for "you" the player for something they never actually said.
So looking at the E4 text again to see how it could be avoided, I noticed a bunch of other little weird things... the past tense on the first sentence clashing with the rest of the present tense; the "despite" doesn't really fit with the logical progression; and while I know exactly what "plump down" was intended to convey it seems a bit nonstandard. It's also missing punctuation at the end, in contrast with the other intermission texts.
Here's a somewhat significant rewrite to get around those issues.
I've also made smaller changes to C5 and C6 for similar reasons.
* Got rid of that column of "you"s.
* Spacing.
Update the dehacked lump info to fix various punctuation,
capitalization, and grammar errors, as well as made the text flow a
little better throughout the game, making it seem more professional.
The firing frames for the zombie and assault tripod look weird if they're not
shown in full brightness, so add a dehacked tweak to set them to full
brightness. Doom has the same bug but it isn't quite as noticeable.
This could theoretically cause a mod compatibility issue since unexpected
frames might be fully lit. However, (1) the worst that can happen is a minor
cosmetic issue, and (2) I don't know of any actual mods this affects (maybe
there aren't any). I think the benefit outweighs the potential downside.
DOOM2.WAD contains a MAP33, which is being represented here as only
the dummy map, and also M_EPI1 and M_EPI2 lumps for the “Hell on Earth”
and “No Rest for the Living” texts, both of which are now replicated
here as well (using “Phase 2” and “The Missing Levels” as names instead).
No, we still don’t plan on having a real MAP33, the inclusion here is
only to avoid engine crashes.
Fixes: #533
Ref: #529
Split the piano and bass guitar groups into separate groups to give more
variation. Move several instruments around which don't fit, and move
several random percussion instruments into an enlargened "blank" group
since these percussion effects are not really similar to each other and
it's better to leave them out than play something that sounds wrong.
Replace all {S,W,B}FALL textures in the levels with their animated
equivalents, and remove {S,W,B}FALL from textures.cfg.
The {S,W,B}FALL were leftovers from when Freedoom had the goal of
being Boom-compatible instead of vanilla-compatible.
Also, rebuild these levels' nodes and reject tables with ZenNode.
A useful vanilla-compatible trick is that it's possible to include
sprites as patches inside texture definitions. It turns out that
both Final Doom IWADs added textures which do this, and Freedoom
inherits this as a result. We shouldn't include these sprites in the
pnames.txt that gets generated for inclusion in wadinfo.txt, since
they're already defined in wadinfo.txt under [sprites] and won't
be found under patches/ anyway.
This should help as a step towards resolving #485.
