ZDoom

I'm not seeing a way to set up a Canvas texture to use a translucent background. It starts off solid black and all the various "Clear" functions do a solid-color fill, ignoring the alpha value of whatever color gets passed in. This limits its usefulness for many applications (menus, etc.).

Super-thanks! That'll save us a lot of headaches.

We've been getting a lot of bug reports for Adventures of Square where players try and launch the game and get this error on startup: Script error, "square1.pk3:cvarinfo.base" line1: cvar 'square_promo_mode' already exists What's happening here is the player is accidentally loading square....

...couldn't resist. -- Great sprites though, in seriousness.

oh snap shit it's v1.0.0 -- IT'S DONE NOW FINALLY ...well, -ish. I'm gonna leave it up for a bit and let folks try it before submitting to /idgames, and maybe there's still room for bugfixes and future stuff, but I'd very much like to stop calling this thing a WIP now. :D Not a ton has changed since...

'Bout a decade late, but it's better than never I guess.

Hey y'all, long heckin' time no post. :P Thanks for the bugreports -- just got all the weird broken stuff fixed up so it all works in the latest GZDoom (borked buymenu, rippers not working, warnings n' stuff) and posted up a " Public Beta #6 " release. Still all works in ZDoom 2.8.1, in ca...

The recoil frame was made by rf` -- here's the original sheet, which also features some edits to the original sprites:

https://static.angryscience.net/pub/images/archvile.png Finally got around to making a PR for this, on a whim: https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/pull/1508 Yeah, we've got A_OverlayScale now, but it's not as convenient and doesn't work in the software renderer (for all 3 of us that use it :P ). Mo...

@Bjecinst: That's damn cool! I wanna dual wield a couple o' these now. :P Hope you don't mind, but I took a stab at polishing up the barrel -- added some anti-aliasing and adjusted the shape a bit so it feels more natural-ish. I'm no pro sprite artist or anything though so hopefully it's vaguely kos...

Sounds like A.L.T. -- enjoy; it's a good'un.

It may be a bit before I get back around to this 'cause I'm busy with a bunch of other projects, but it's probably about time to rework a bunch of stuff under the hood. It's a bit messy 'cause I had to work around some oddities that no longer exist in the latest versions of GZDoom, so hopefully I ca...

Are you sure?

I was doing some research on ZScript menus and found this rather odd quote in the Wiki on the page for the Screen API: It is recommended you use the status bar global variable to handle screen drawing and only use the API directly for screen information or if no other option is available. ...Is it, ...
