And another question - is there any chance for version for Zandronum (at least in future)?

Every Unclosed subsector ... warning is a potential problem for hardware renderer. Some of them are probably invisible to player, some are noticeable for sure, like on E4M1.
ImpieTwo, do you need help with fixing this? Sorry for bothering if the issue is ignored intentionally.

I never found a fix for this that actually worked. I myself have been unable to produce the bug on any source port, so I'm not sure what to do about it.

And as for Zandronum, probably not.

Using the latest GZDoom:

Code: Select all

gzdoom.exe -nomonsters -iwad doom.wad -file strangeaeonsv531.pk3 +map e4m1 +warp 420 320
gzdoom.exe -nomonsters -iwad doom.wad -file strangeaeonsv531.pk3 +map e4m1 +warp 1400 2900

The solution is simple: use fractional vertex coordinates with caution.
In fact, it's impossible to be 100% sure that these vertices will not cause missing subsectors until you invoke the node builder from command line and check its output.
At least, I found no way to reveal such warnings in GZDoomBuilder.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2016 7:11 pm**

So how do I adjust the vertexes exactly? I tried shifting them around before to no avail, according to my tester. Do I just drag them 'til their coordinates are a certain number?

Spoiler: Here is the guide
Set the grid size to 1 mp. Make sure in the main menu that Edit -> Snap to Grid is active.

Open a map that have warnings in the log I posted before. I'll use my favorite E4M1.

Unclosed subsector 507, from (928,-1792) to (873,-1920)
Looks like we have to problems here because the first 4 subsectors share coordinates, the same for other subsuctors. Let's take a look at the first issue.
Locate sector that uses the given coordinates. It's a sector #55. Switch to vertex mode (shortcut 'V') and hover over each vertex of this sector. Here is an example of offending one:

Now you have two options:

Drag a vertex with the right mouse button to the nearest grid intersection

Double-click or right-click on a vertex and delete the fractional part in Edit Vertex window

Hope this helps.

P.S. I think I can even write a tool that strips fractional parts from all vertices in all maps. Let me know if you are interested in such tool.

EDIT: As a side note I'm really curious why did you put music with maps into the single shudmaps.wad file? You are constantly saving the same but useless ~50 MB while editing a map.

Geez, I'm sorry, Jack. Your post got lost in all the other posts I guess.

That's a tricky one unless you remembered the fusebox from E1M5.

Because I do absolutely everything the hardest, most anal-retentive way possible by default.

I also use Doom Builder 2, not GZDoom stuff.

I don't actually edit the maps in the pk3, I mess with the wad files and when they're ready, add them to the pk3 afterward. I suppose I could just move the music files to their own wad or something.

I'll take a look at what you posted and see if I can do anything with it.

EDIT: Okay, I think I found all the offending vertices and fixed them, and made a few other minor tweaks while I was at it. I'll upload version 5.3.2 within the next 24 hours. If you could run the test for me again to see if I missed any, I'd greatly appreciate it.

EDIT2: Annnnd I didn't include the pk3. Christ...

Posted: **Mon Jul 04, 2016 7:44 pm**

5.3.3 is now available. Just has a minor fix: an extra clue to the hardest puzzle on E5M9.

You can check for issues by yourself. Execute the following from Doom Builder's installation directory, with proper path to shudmaps.wad:

Sorry, everyone, apparently it didn't register the download change or something. The download was still 5.3.2 this whole time, not the update I'd advertised. This has been fixed.

Explains why your test showed the exact same results as last time. Man, everything I do is a comedy of errors.

The single difference between this and previous log is new type of warnings for E5M9. I'll check them later.

Yeah, that tool you suggested making is starting to look more appealing by the minute. I have no idea what's wrong with e5m9.

Just like to say I've been playing this mod quite a lot recently and I'm loving every second of it!

I love the music and the whole new bestiary. I'm really impressed with the atmosphere you've created and I'm enjoying the difficulty, as it's not too over the top and much more enjoyable for me

. I'd say this is definitely one of the more original Doom mods I've played!

I love the idea behind the second episode boss, even though it is a right bastard

The first episode actually reminded me of some of the dreams I used to have

Definitely looking forward to more mods by you!

Thanks Lexus! Appreciate the support.

Updated to 5.3.4, mostly to fix an issue I didn't notice with the skies: when playing on Doom 2, older versions use default Doom 2 skies and not the ones I intended. This is now fixed.

EDIT: Also uploading a separate download for Doom 2, which includes the correct textures from Ultimate Doom.

Here's better one:
1. Set grid size to 1.
2. Select all map verts.
3. Edit -> Snap selection to grid.
