Ultimate Doom Builder

[Jaska]

Hmm, kinda back on editing more nowadays so again stumbling to this problem where UDB locks resources. So even if I load my resources with "read only" ticked they still will be locked. There was one version of UDB which didn't? I missed to download it. And it was like months ago so isn't that outdated already? Or does it receive still all other updates also?


[edit] Now I'm not even 100% sure but does every update overwrite gameconfigs?


As I have different viewheight on my mod so I've put
cameraflooroffset = 50;
to
F:\***\editors\UDB\Configurations\GZDoom_DoomUDMF
So it seems to reset after every update. Is there way to avoid that? Would there be a need to customize this on UI (I don't know how many mods change the viewheight)?

I am getting really janky/stuttery mouse movements in visual mode since last version for some reason. As in, sometimes the movements yanks back and forth slightly.

Where are the program textures (crosshair, placeholders) being loaded from now? I've been replacing them with something more tolerable, and now that no longer works.

Saving a linedef color preset with an activation type only doesn't seem to work, it always tics the "use flags" box as well after leaving the menu or changing to differet color preset

OK. I don't know what the hell is going on with my toolbars in UDB.

This is what I'm seeing when I try to use the Curve Linedefs tool (though this happens with any tool I try to use):

As you can see, the toolbar looks wonky and I can't access everything I need to, like in this other pic using GZDoom Builder:

I don't know what caused it, but I do know I want to fix this (or have it fixed, if this is a bug), and would like to know how.

It's already fixed.

This is driving me around the bend ...

smeghammer published a pwad, over on Doomworld, with lots of 156 line actions (purple), and no event lines show up linking them. I just cannot figure out why not. In other pwads they do show up.

Does someone more familiar with portals than myself have an explanation for this?

And before the question comes up if Event Lines is enabled, yes it is.

It's Hexen format.

[Kappes Buur]

It's Hexen format.

I converted the pwad to UDMF and event lines for 156 still do not show up.

[edit]
it's a moot point now, looking more closely at how he did this I figured it out.
The conversion did not set an id tag for the linedef.

The path is straight and narrow again.

Outstanding!!! Can't wait to try it.

https://devbuilds.drdteam.org/ultimatedoombuilder/ does not open for me, is there a Windows binary available somewhere?

Thanks a ton to everyone!!

EDIT: devbuilds seems recovered.

Are there any instructions anywhere for building and installing UDB on Linux? If I clone from Git and make, I get a native library compiled with GCC but a Builder.exe that file says is a Windows program:

Code: Select all • Expand view

PE32+ executable (GUI) x86-64 Mono/.Net assembly, for MS Windows

Surely it should be for Mono on Linux? And is there mean to be an install script for Linux somewhere?

Some guidance would be appreciated, thanks!

[dpJudas]

'file' is wrong - it is indeed a .net assembly, but it isn't for MS Windows. To run it type 'mono Builder.exe'.

About 15 years ago on Linux using 'chmod +x Builder.exe' also worked. I think I tried it sometime last year myself and this time it didn't work (ask the mono guys why that was dropped if it doesn't). If the execute bit does work then you can just rename it to something without the .exe extension.

Edit: I pushed a shell script that the makefile puts into the Build folder. That way it should be more obvious to Linux users that aren't used to launching mono executables.

[MartinHowe]

@dpJudas - Thanks

EDIT:

OK, I had a look - adding x permission to Builder.exe doesn't work, using mono ./Builder.exe does.

(BTW, for anyone who may have been wondering, it seems UDB on Linux puts config files in ~/.local/share/Doom Builder, note the space in the file name).

Is there a way to add custom code snippets to the script editor?
