Shades of Doom v4.1 (07-09-23)

[Cyanide]

The GAU-9000 in Lt. Typhon V6 has a sprite prefix that conflicts with that for the Judgment Zombie, which results in graphical glitches. If loaded prior to Shades, parts of the weapon's idle animation are overwritten by it's pain frames, while if loaded after it disappears when it's pain frames are called. Additionally, all the obituaries are in all caps and do not display whoever the player the monster killed was.

Can't do anything about the sprite conflict. I'll see what I can do about the obituaries. Thanks for the report!

Anyone has Shades of Doom v3.0? Shades of Doom v4.0 don't run in my LZDoom, unfortunately. So if anyone could share the old version, it would be appreciated.

Well, I'm 5 days out of surgery, and things seem to be going well. I'm on sick leave for 3 months now, so finally I've got plenty of time to just relax and do some Doomin'.

Glad that you're doing okay!

Just downloaded version 4. I love the monster selector!

It runs on the latest devbuild.

Unfortunately, Shades of Doom v4 don't runs in LZDoom x86 Latest Devbuild. I tested it and don't works.

Maybe the latest dev build is ahead of LZDoom_3.87c_x64 version then. I tested it and it works. And i can't even run OpenGL3, so maybe that's an issue with the dev build itself, other mods loaded, maybe you could even try downloading LZDoom again.

Before answering the previous comment to this one, I went to download the latest version of LZDoom x86 to check if it really didn't work with the mod.

I used that version with the mod and it didn't work, but with other mods it has worked correctly for me.

LZDoom x64 I don't think it works for me for obvious reasons, my PC is not 64bits.

My PC is 32bits and only has OpenGL 2.1.

But what's the problem? Does it crash?

[drfrag]

It gives a strange error. I dunno why, the mod has a lot of PNGs tough.

Code: Select all

Corrupt zlib stream
Invalid data encountered for texture 1Shades4.pk3:sprites/g cacos/14 caco ghoul/g14cd2
**** DIED WITH FATAL ERROR:
R_InstallSprite: Sprite G14C frame D is missing rotations

Edit: i see the pk3 has over 50K files.

Now it runs, it was the shitty XP compatibility toolset. 3.87c still ran on XP changing the OpenAL dll. I was going to include the official (XP compatible) dll anyway but now 3.88 won't run on XP. Devbuilds are still compatible with XP so you'll have to wait for the official release, unless you're on XP of course.

Well, my PC has Windows 10. Before, my PC was Windows 8.

I have changed the OpenAL dll and fixed a little LZDoom x86 devbuild issue.

The devbuild crashed every time I stopped playing, although it did not affect anything. When I changed the OpenAL, this crash stopped showing up.

But that's all, the mod still does not work for me.

Y hasta ahora me doy cuenta que eres de España.

Je je, a ver he dicho que funcionara cuando saque la proxima version porque tengo que cambiar el compilador.
I need to change the compiler, it will run on the next release (but not on XP). The OpenAL crash is a known problem with devbuilds, it was a bug in the library. That's why i included a custom dll with 3.87c but now i'll include the official release (not available at the time).
Actually Win10 has been a huge downgrade for me.

No te preocupes, si comprendi lo que quisiste decir, se que tendre que esperar a la siguiente version. Pero me preocupe un poco por que no sabia si realmente en mi PC esa devbuild me podria correr, dado a que mi PC tiene su respectiva antiguedad (11 años y sigue funcionando).

Pero, no voy a saber que sucedera hasta probarlo. Asi que, estare ancioso por tenerla para ver si el Shades of Doom corre alli o en otro caso pues tendre que encontrar a alguien que me pase la version anterior del mod. Hablo en Español por que soy bueno leyendo ingles pero no escribiendolo.

Yo no tenia idea alguna del crasheo del OpenAL con las Devbuild, ya que hace tiempo que no descargaba una. Asi que fue por ello mi mención del problema.

Y la verdad me gusto haberle encontrado solución sin haberla buscado especificamente jaja.

Gracias por ayudar en el problema que se me presento, se te agradece la gran contribución que haces con la comunidad (te he visto en diversos mods dando apoyo).
