GZDoom sub-forum

[Death Egg]

I've been wondering this for some time, what's the reason the GZDoom forum is on the DRD Team forums instead of on here? It might be beneficial to have them on this forum instead.

Because, at one point, GZDoom itself was actually hosted at DRD Team.

Ah, that would make sense then. Would it be in GZDoom's best interests to move over here or would it be too much a hassle for too little gain?

I wish they had a GZDoom subforum over here though.

What's so difficult about bookmarking http://forum.drdteam.org/viewforum.php?f=22 ?

Not difficult at all, but for some reason getting developer feedback on (G)ZDoom bug reports usually takes form hours to days here, and from weeks to years at DRD Team forums (i'm still waiting, Graf. STIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLL WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIITIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING...).

+1 just move all GZDoom forum activity to here. Randi please make it happen. =D

Well, sorry, I have no idea what to do with that, so feedback would be pointless.

Um... Your usual approach seems to be "ZDoom way is the right way", so what's different in this particular case?

[Gez]

It's a question of seniority. For features that originally come from GZDoom, like 3D floors, then GZDoom is the reference. However, in this case there's a discrepancy of behavior between alpha levels, and that's clearly a bug, with the behavior at alpha level 255 being incorrect because for every lower value the behavior is different.

Why was linked in the first place? It's already fixed. That lighting bug was introduced in GZDoom 2.x, and qualified as a genuine bug.
The other one is a bit of a problem. That situation was never considered when the code was written and it's a bit difficult to get in now.

Merely to illustrate the delay between me creating the thread (Jun 10, 2015) and you fixing the issue (Dec 11, 2015).

Well, yours is a special case.
As programmer for the editor you should have a red phone right beside your computer, with a direct connection to both Graf Zahl and randi.

That's called Real life!
