SLADE v3.0.2 final Released

[sirjuddington]

I don't suppose adding a "GLfriendly" offset option for "monsters" could be considered for this dialogue could it?


I hope the image works. Imgur seems to be down ATM so I had to use another host.

The default offsets them much like the graphics in the original IWAD - ie with the bottoms 4 pixels below the floor. With stuff that I am only going to use in GZDoom (and occasionally for other stuff) I like to put (suitable) graphics in at an offset that guarantees nothing will get clipped off the bottom rather than rely on menu settings. So, I use the offset dialogue above to set them up mostly how I want them but then I have to go back for a second round of offsetting to raise the graphics by 4 units.

...Unless the "set offsets" fields could accept formulae or instructions such as "height" or "height-4" or "width/2"

Should be simple enough to add

Hmm, request to support CopyNewAlpha (which would function as Translucent would now) and Overlay (which would function as CopyAlpha does now) in the texture editor.

I'm still having trouble running the latest Slade 3 SVNs. They won't start up at all or produce log files to find whats wrong with it. Can anyone help me?

[Gez]

Have you ever been able to run an SVN build, or has it started relatively recently?

Can you run the official build?

[Sgt Dopey]

Yes I can run the official build and no I've never been able to run a SVN build

[Gez]

Maybe you can try installing this and then try again?

[Sgt Dopey]

No dice still doesn't work

I think it might have to do with fluidsynth, since I remember getting something similar on an XP VM, and using a dll tracer program found it was the fluidsynth dll missing references to some other random dlls (don't remember which, except that one was a java one, for whatever reason)

[Sgt Dopey]

I added fluidsynth.dll into the Slade3 folder and it still wouldn't work

[Sgt Dopey]

I managed to get it working on another computer that is less powerful than my main computer.

Can we have a feature that converts FON2 lumps into individual STCFN* lumps ready for export as PNG (or whatever format)?

[disposable_username2]

Feature request: highlight sectors affected by lines with unknown special, as Slade 2 did.

[Gez]

The thing is that specials can affect things or other lines, not just sectors. They may also not affect anything on the map, such as Strife linetypes where the tag is used to choose a map number.

[disposable_username2]

Right; but viewing Boom maps is a pain without it, as generalized line types are all "unknown" and they all affect sectors. Perharps a format config option?

[Gez]

Support for generalized line types will come, eventually. The map editor wouldn't be complete without it.
