GZDoomBuilder-Bugfix, a maintenance fork of GZDB

Projects that have specifically been abandoned or considered "dead" get moved here, so people will quit bumping them. If your project has wound up here and it should not be, contact a moderator to have it moved back to the land of the living.

The most dynlight intensive maps seem to be Enjay's Gene-Tech and Waterlab
I played through them with no obvious visual anomalies occurring.

Otherwise same as abbuw with action 80

Ok. Action 80 fixed. I also pushed this feature to auto-update as R3000. (also I remember promising a major release at 3k, but seriously cba)

Visual mode:


2D mode:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/1c23bpf7v ... x-r2995.7z
It does NOT support spotlights yet, but it has complete rewrite of dynlight detection. I really need some help with testing this one. I know that it somewhat looks well, but obscure stuff like inheriting lights or GLDEFS lights may be broken.
Basically, I'm asking people who have complex dynlight intensive maps to open their maps in this and make sure everything works as intended before I push this to auto-update.
The reason why I'm doing this is because it may actually permanently break maps if it isn't working correctly, so yup some testing needed.
Everything works so far, but inherited lights don't draw the 2D light radius in the 2D view.

EDIT: correction, inherited lights don't render in 3D view, too

I don't know why, but GZDB started giving me this error on startup:

"Update check failed: failed to retrieve remote revision info.
Check your Internet connection and try again."

I don't understand, there's nothing wrong with my connection that I know of...

DRDTeam seems to be lagging. Sometimes doesn't connect. I'm working on changing how update notifications work so that it doesn't unconditionally display sudden popup window after it checks for updates. Once that's done I'll just make it retry the HTTP request until it works.

If it were my choice, DRDTeam would not be hosted on DreamHost which is what is causing the problems. However, I do not currently have that choice, so it is what it is. >_<

It feels like shared webhosts are only ever good if your site is a ghost town with 10 or 20 visitors per month at most. Get even a hint of popularity and they fuck you hard with limits and access errors and all that tripe.

This may be a bug or possibly something I do not understand correctly:

I wanted to find all imps with the easy flag. Apparently that does not work, so I
opted to find all things with the easy flag.
Spoiler:
So, I press the K of the truncated OK and I get this
Spoiler:
Then I click on Find and this shows up

The checkboxes are tristate

Here Easy is at "required to be set", Hard is at "required to not be set", and Medium (and everything else) is at "don't care".
Not sure what it looks like on Win10, but the reason why you got nothing is because you made a query for things that have ONLY Easy flag (which normally doesn't happen, as things have at least SP/MP flag also).

About truncated OK: this is only with Hexen and Boom versions of the dialog. Yes, requires fixing >_>
Since UDMF dialog is way wider:

You could use a filter to find things that have the easy flag and are monsters. In Things mode, click on the button that looks like a funnel, which is the filter. Click New Filter, and set it up to filter by category monsters and on the flags tab, make a check mark on skill 1 and the neutral box symbol (neither checked nor empty) on all the rest. Then, choose that new filter, and all things that don't match that filter will be grayed out.

Okay as i said in the discord server, i want to make a simple request of adding this extra block as an compiling option in zdbsp.cfg

Code: Select all

zdbsp_udmf_compressed_huge
{
	title = "ZDBSP - Compress nodes (UDMF) (Large Maps)";
	compiler = "zdbsp";
	parameters = "-z -X -s004 -p128 -d032 -G -5 -o%FO %FI";
}
Usually too large maps tends to make ZDBSP go nuts when building the BSP and it can generate some sort of slime trails that shows what is behind the wall or shows the sky if it happens in the floor or ceiling, this addition of parameters seems to make ZDBSP build the nodes more carefully and fix the problem.

Also, i'm trying to add something to some ZScript classes so they'll show up in the Things Menu on GZDoom Builder, but it seems like it isn't appearing. How would you go about making a ZScripted thing show up in the Things menu? I already added the tags.
