ZDoom 2.5.0

[Ceeb]

In the fan room, when the projectiles start to fire, the engine slows to an absolute crawl until they're done. This script is never terminated leaving the map unplayable.

Edit:

Notably though, even linedef bridge-heavy areas were fine for me. I think it was just the sheer volume of moving objects in the volcano and Doom Star A2 areas that caused my problems.

Anybody up to scripting automap asteroids with polyobjects?

Actually, overhead AM rendering should not have been a problem in previous versions either, despite the visual subsector leakage in the FPS view.

The scrolling sky can't stretch, there is an ugly black line through the once awesome orange scrolling ceiling.
Where can I now download zdoom 2.4.1? I should have saved the older zdoom on a CD or something.

I think It's the wad that had a problem . The new Zdoom is ok.

ZDoom 2.5.0 has a Bug

That's why there's this forum.

[InsanityBringer]

The first step is to test with a svn build from http://svn.drdteam.org

if the latest svn build still shows the bug, report it at the mentioned bugs forum.

while the bug report is looked at you can download 2.4.1 at http://zdoom.org/files/zdoom/2.4/

Perhaps not the place to post this, but I figure this is close enough. I'm curious, how long is it likely going to take for the next official version? There have been many things added since this.

"When it's done."

In all seriousness - I *cannot* speak for Randy or team - but another version is likely in the somewhat near future after things have been tested and ironed out. If you really cannot wait, just go to http://svn.drdteam.org/zdoom/ - it may sometimes be desirable to play public zdoom releases but there are many times when it's better to just play the 'betas' and this might be one of them.

To add to this, asking "when will it be done" is contributing to the problem - downloading and testing the next version before it's out and making bug reports is part of the solution.

From here:

There's 2 things that need to be resolved before 2.6.0, unfortunately both tasks for Randy.

There's one 3D floor problem as reported by phi108 above and the nodebuilder hang with one map in ZPack.

[Graf Zahl]

... and before these 2 are resolved there's no point in a new release...

[RaVeN-05]

Heh, cant wait anymore for new releases

[BlueFireZ88]

So there is going to be a 2.6.0 . Cool. I suppose it's good to hear that it's not actually far off and only a couple things remain.

Quick question: Where does 2.5.0 r3174 fall in terms of the 2.6.0 betas? Is it the most recent one?

[DaMan]

Its 1 revision old.

[Gez]

There are no 2.6.0 betas. There are no alphas and no release candidates. ZDoom just evolves one revision after another, and from time to time Randy decides to make one of them an official version.

[Enjay]

Its 1 revision old.

And given that r3175 was a revision to a branch and not the main trunk, r3174 is the current revision.

[Metaljosh]

Yeah, you made it. you make a better edition for everyone who is new in this like me its my first time and am really impressed.Good Job
