Re: GZDoom discussion (Version 2.3.1 released 2016/jan/7)
I mostly used the same file names of BD. For instance barons shouldn't jump since i commented out the ThrustThingZ lines, but other files are actually parsed. I haven't tried 2.3.0 but gzdoom-g2.3pre-888-g56f6772 worked fine.
This is a patch to fix bugs in BD and there are no errors nor warnings left in the console.
There are other probably unrelated problems, for instance you cannot kill a cyberdemon with 'kill cyberdemon' and monsters no longer drop grenades.

Works for me, tried in both 2.3.2 and g2.4pre-127-g386c00f. I even checked in debugger and BARON.txt is loaded from brutalv20c_UP.pk3 indeed.drfrag wrote:I mostly used the same file names of BD.

Also, kill cyberdemon works by the way. I checked with summon CCMD and on MAP08 from Doom II.

This is very helpful, I had no idea that case sensitivity was so important! Thank you much!_mental_ wrote:From iwadinfo.txt:So yes, it loads voices.wad automatically but not VOICES.WAD file.Code: Select all
IWad { Name = "Strife: Quest for the Sigil" // ... Load = "voices.wad" }
Do not forget about case sensitive file system. It's a good idea there to have all IWADs with names in lower case.

I deleted my old gzdoom.ini and everything it's working fine now, i installed it over a previous version, but this is strange. By the way i get no textures until i change video mode from the default on my ati card._mental_ wrote:Works for me, tried in both 2.3.2 and g2.4pre-127-g386c00f.

Edit: the problem is back.

After exiting to save my settings and loading the engine again the problem is back, seems like there's some corruption loading the ini settings. I can't kill any monster not just the cyberdemon, in fact i didn't make any changes to the cyberdemon, only kill monsters work. I don't know what's happening here, but there's some ini setting involved.
Edit: mystery is solved.

Re: GZDoom discussion (Version 2.3.1 released 2016/jan/7)
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED:
I was loading an old savegame after deleting the old ini, somehow the new ini got corrupted after loading that savegame. The wad is neis.wad and it has DEHACKED (only for map names), MAPINFO, EMAPINFO and GAMEINFO lumps. The problem appeared even without loading neis.wad. I don't know how the problem originated, the savegame was from 2.3.2 as well, but i suspect the ini got corrupted after changing from an old version to 2.3.2. So it's not that much of a problem but definitely something strange is going on in there.
But now i don't get any textures on my card with texture filtering enabled, it's a radeon x1250 with opengl 2.1 support. Same happens on 2.3 SVN.

I have gotten another report for those old ATI cards reporting a similar issue. Seems to be a driver bug which is par for course for ATIs of that vintage. And without anything to test I have no idea what these cards do not like.
Re: GZDoom discussion (Version 2.3.1 released 2016/jan/7)
Does bloom work on ATI cards? I can't seem to notice any difference between the option being on or off. I am on version 2.2.0 and nothing seems to happen.

Have you updated your graphics drivers to the latest version?

Re: GZDoom discussion (Version 2.3.1 released 2016/jan/7)
Just a quick message to mention that I highly approve of all the latest additions made to GZD. With FXAA, SSAO and bloom enabled, this is finally a full alternative to Doomsday regarding visual enhancements. Doom can also look pretty with GZDoom now. Thanks a lot to Graf Zahl and anybody who contributed to coding for making this possible!

Not yet, GZDoom is still missing perpixel-lit models and lens flares... ;)NightFright wrote:this is finally a full alternative to Doomsday regarding visual enhancements.
But yeah, agreed - the framebuffer post processing stuff makes a HUGE difference in visual quality. SSAO is pretty much COMPULSORY for me now, I'll never turn it off. ;D Thank you, dpJudas and Graf Zahl!

While we are at it:
Can anybody tell me what gl_ssao_portals is doing if you change its default value from 0 to anything else? I wasn't able to spot any difference until now.

Re: GZDoom discussion (Version 2.3.1 released 2016/jan/7)
Controls how many portals will have SSAO drawn into them. Also note that mirrors and skyboxes are considered portals so this will affect whether SSAO is drawn in them, and at how many levels deep. Higher settings will be slower when portals are in view.NightFright wrote:While we are at it:

Not since the new DOOM came out, I had to in order to get the game to even launch. Typically I never update my drivers unless something I really want to play requires the latest update. I'm assuming the bloom requires something out of a newer ATI driver? Kind of a shame since I could get bloom all day long before using QEffects and on a super old driver.Nash wrote:Have you updated your graphics drivers to the latest version?
And a full colored lighting system ala Doom 64. That guy did it but nobody knows how and I get the feeling he's not going to release his source code changes.Nash wrote:Not yet, GZDoom is still missing perpixel-lit models and lens flares...

Re: GZDoom discussion (Version 2.3.1 released 2016/jan/7)
Depends on the card. It also depends onthe display device and your eyes if you see it. Bloom can be very subtle and I have seen monitors with 'built in' Bloom (i.e. shitty panels.)Nevander wrote:Does bloom work on ATI cards? .
