DUMP Episode 3: BFG Edition [map + weapons released]

[TerminusEst13]

The next update of the weapons build is ready to go, just need to finish compiling the maps. I was waiting on the finish of the hub map, which was sent to me just a couple days ago.

I've been terribly busy lately, but it's coming and hopefully will be another release soon.

I bet.

Well that's good to hear, looking forward to the new build.

[Beed28]

Has a final boss been designed yet?

[leodoom85]

Hey Term, this next release will be a final version or a build?. And if it is a build, will you accept updates or not?.

[charcola]

Term recently stated that no new weapons or maps will be accepted, but updates to them are currently still ok, so get things finished up while you can.

[Yholl]

Has a final boss been designed yet?

Not yet. That might be a long way off.



Alright, better add some stuff to the weapons to get ready for the next test release, gotta do some A_AlertMonsters and ammo checks and stuff so we ca-

• Goto Fire+34
  Goto Fire+21
  Goto Ready+9
  Goto AltFire+15

fuck this I'm out

[ijon]

... people still use state offsets like that?

also am i still a crime :^)

[Yholl]

(also am i still a crime :^) )

Yes

The HS 011 singlehandedly prevents me from compiling DUMP3. I have to wait for Term to not be busy anytime I need to compile it now.
I also have absolutely no idea what to do about that cvar check that'll cause desyncs either.

I do love all your guns though, I just need to vent constantly or I'll explode

[ijon]

well why is it causing issues besides "you can't check freelook without breaking zdoom netcode"

and i seriously hope you didn't try to put all the notzwei stuff into the main dump 3 acs library, and if you did i can only assume you are a masochist

[Yholl]

I dunno I'm not a murb or a kyle this is all gobbledegook to me
I'm just repeating what I was told like a parrot

and i seriously hope you didn't try to put all the notzwei stuff into the main dump 3 acs library, and if you did i can only assume you are a masochist

I didn't put it in, so uuuuh no

[ijon]

well here's what could happen, I guess

I could make a bug report/'feature' request about freelook and how it really should be a user cvar, and then I can do the GetDBEntry crap to check whether it's zandronum or zdoom

if it's zandronum or single player, use GetCVar because I know it's safe there (although I don't know how much bandwidth it'll use, never tested it online), and for zdoom and multiplayer use GetUserCVar and hope the fix gets pushed

(also i hope "I didn't put it in" doesn't mean you didn't put sword in because that would make me sad)

(also i have a feeling discord would be better for this but you aren't in my friend list)

edit: yeah i just did the request

you know how this is going to end, right

Don't tell me you've never worked with a little IRON before!

Even though I didn't remember the state jumps and all before checking for myself, I just KNEW you were referring to my weapon and exactly which one. NOT MY FAULT! D-FAULT.

If it becomes a problem, banish/remove/impeach/delete the weapon from the pack, so as not to hold up new builds!

... people still use state offsets like that?

I don't know of any other way! Probably doesn't help that I am using a 2.8 ZDoom build. That's only because using anything newer will cause my personal use mod to randomly crash on occasion. Therefore, I am missing out on a lot of useful features (Especially "User States") and am left in the dark on more efficient ways to handle things.

[TerminusEst13]

Don't worry, User States are not a very new feature at all. In fact, they're very old! Please feel free to use them to your heart's content.

[ijon]

user states? as in... ones that don't have any particular meaning to zdoom?

those have been around since at least 2.3.1. where have you been?
