Change new sector color properties with ACS

[Nevander]

A while ago Doom 64 style lighting was added to GZDoom but in it's current state (as far as I know) it cannot be changed once set in-game with ACS like standard sector coloring can with Sector_SetColor. It would be very nice and also allow me to fully and properly add it to my Doom 64 TC when the time comes if I can change them with ACS when needed.

I am thinking of something like this:

Code: Select all

SetSectorColor(int tag, int area, int red, int green, int blue, int fade);

Where:
- Tag is the sector to change
- Area is a number from 0-5, with 0 to change all properties at once, 1 is floor, 2 is ceiling, 3 is upper wall, 4 is lower wall and finally 5 is things
- Fade is the number of tics for the change to happen, where 0 is instantly or any number higher is that many tics for the colors change from old to new (Doom 64 was able to change them instantly or gradually by interpolating between the old and new colors)

I second this, and I actually have been wanting to mess around with this until I realized that there wasn't that much flexibility in ACS for it.

This should already be doable, but right now I cannot recall how.

Yeah, I tried to do it but can't figure out how either.

I tried looking in the stuff for ACC 1.56 and I didn't see anything that really seems like it'd fit.

I'd love to know it myself, since I'm trying to colorize these maps "properly."

(Also, while I know this is a bit of a highjack, can I get info on if pegging/flipping D64 sector colors to upper/lower linedefs could be added, Graf? Accurate recreations of the maps would need them - pegging the colors to upper or lower linedefs is used in a lot of places.)
