ZDoom

COOOOOOOOOODE ...say, how well is it commented? Probably very poorly. From what I remember Nanami was "against" commenting in code. On the other hand, she wrote things very clearly and other people seemed to be OK trying to understand it. I'm pretty sure the code is in the demo version? I have a ...

It isn't dead, it's just... hibernating. I was actually waiting for the map you said you were considering making. The other problem is that with Nanami's departure there isn't any real coder for the project. The code is actually in a good spot for now, but trying to manage it in the future might ...

The end of E1M8 is a good testing ground, there's an egg on the liches platform and some ghosty nitrogolems come out after you kill them all.

In Heretic, translucent monsters remained translucent when turned into chickens. This isn't the case in ZDoom. There might be a similar thing going on in Hexen with the pigs, although I don't remember which if any Hexen enemies were translucent.

that's ok. i've had too much work to do and just finished up another wad. i guess i'm just not in a real rush to work on it right now, and might not be for a while. partly i was waiting on the ability to code new weapons. but certainly i can see why you'd want out, and it's fine by me.

I was under the impression it used Allegro to handle that.

I haven't, but I don't think that's the issue since most of the time I can run ZDoom. Also, when I can't run ZDoom I can't seem to run Eternity either, and that doesn't even use DirectX which is why I thought they both just might be conflicting with something else I have running.

I'm sure it must just be conflicting with something, but I have no idea what's responsible.

heh, funny, 5h and I have been talking about getting this going again. We would have already but I haven't had Internet at home for a month. We were just going to cut it down to a 10 map project or so, and then let people do expansion packs or whatever if they want. My graveyard map is close enough ...

This bug has been around some time and is pretty major as it means you can't reliably use ZDBSP nodes for non-ZDoom WADs. And no, this isn't a ZDoom bug, but if you were paying attention you'd see this forum also covers ZDBSP and ZETH ones as well.

pretty sure you're not supposed to use cyan on PNG images. just use the normal PNG transparency.

it's called a voodoo doll, and it exists in doom(2).exe as well. although technically a bug, mappers have made good use of it, and removing it would cause incompatibility with many wads, including final doom.

OK... thanks for the clarification.

Monsters don't seem to teleport in at the right angle using hexen tag 71 (silent teleporter). Attached below is a test wad demonstrating it. Use puke 1 to activate the script, and look at it in a map editor.
