LZDoom 3.88b 02/26 released

[Talon1024]

Now when I try to run LZDoom with OpenGL rendering, I get this error:

Code: Select all

Compile Shader 'shaders/glsl/present.fp':
0(5) : error C7532: layout(binding) requires #version

Oops, i don't know how shaders really work. I had to add that for the dithering, to test just remove those layouts for now.
The easiest solution would be to patch the shader and then that feature would only work on GL>4.2. I'm not using uniform blocks here, whatever they are, just the old shaders.
Edit: i need to set the binding in the C++ code with glUniform1i, how to do it is another story.
Edit2: i think then i must define the texture in the shader instead.

At least a temporary fix is using -glversion 3 and while you get zero shaders or ambient occlussion it's at least playable.

Okay, i think it's fixed now. Don't know how but looks like i've done it again.
Please download the new devbuild.
Last night i barely could sleep and i were trying to fix this damn thing, today tinnitus is still very strong.

I've tried it myself with '-glversion 3.3' and dithering works, i haven't tried with 'gl_riskymodernpath' and 3.1.
I plan to do a release within the next few days unless there are more issues.

I've just fixed a very important bug both in the legacy build and LZDoom, multiplayer was broken since long before 3.8.0. Exactly since "- replaced the assignment operator in player_t with a named function." I missed "- removed unnecessary variable clear" somehow, it was a later commit (i was merging a ton of them those days) and that line actually broke it. I've discovered it while trying to play "splitscreen" using two game instances. BTW it doesn't work due to input not being registered by the instance in the background (the window without the focus).

It does work, at least on last LZDoom beta (Not the devbuilds), if you were to use something like Joy2Key to map the gamepad's buttons to keyboard keys. I know, weird, but for some reason it does.

Now the gamepad works in the background.

Finally, about time the man himself pulled it off! Thanks a lot for this one, it changes everything about splitscreen.

Congrats on the new release!

[drfrag]

Thanks! And thanks to all who made it possible: the real devs, Blzut3, Tormentor667 and specially those who made some donations to allow continuing development.

Thanks for the great work for all the releases , drfrag Sorry for the noobish question once again , but what are the main differences between the GZDoom 3.8.2 Vintage and LZDoom 3.82 ; and how do they compare in terms of mod compability / performance on older hardware ?

[drfrag]

Thanks but i missed some things in the last vintage release, i will discontinue it very soon and the next one will be the last.
About compatibility it's slightly better here, LZDoom is a bit ahead the last vintage release. Should be very high, most stuff should run unless something falls thru the cracks.
For software performance on D3D is better for sure about the GL renderer it should be pretty much the same but the old renderer is more compatible. This also runs on even older hardware.
But they are not the same, LZDoom maintains a more classic look. The choice of the icon color is fully intentional: if you mix blue and red guess what you'll get?

[Apeirogon]

So lzdoom works on GL 2 videocards and have zscript 3.82, right?

[drfrag]

It supports 3.8.3 but has later stuff. It runs on GL 2 and even on DDraw but there's an old bug i fixed later and now you need to set fuzz style to shadow under OpenGL options (gl_fuzztype 0).
