Floor Question

Post by dax13 »

Hey hoU !

I'm making a mod with a lot of blood (on GZdoom )and gibs and stuff like that... and as far as I know there is a definition lump that creates sprites/images on the wall(DECALDEF).. now my question:

..Does Gzdoom or zdoom has a lump that creates the same stuff on the floor and ceiling.. or do I have to do some crazy stuff to obtain my aim? If its possible.. HOW IN THE HELL CAN I DO THAT???!!!

I hope you understand my bad english ( :) )

Floor and ceiling decals can't be done with ZDoom. I guess it would be the same with GZDoom, but I'm not so sure about that one.

FYI, the reason this can't be done is because the flat (floor and ceiling) drawing code is heavily optimized and assumes a single-patch texture will be drawn every time. Decals on walls work because the code was already there to piece multiple graphics together to form wall textures.
