When I use it together it causes the issue of keycards still emitting glow even after picking them up.

Try this (untested) in line 1258 of hd_relighting_Event_Handler

Code: Select all

							if (!thing.bIsMonster && thing.bSolid && !thing.bShootable && !(thing is "Inventory"))

Did you mean line 1251? Anyway, I changed it and the glow still persists.

Really love the idea but some mods become unplayable - Ashes afterglow. Its lagging really badly even after disabling most of its features.

ReLite might work better. It doesn't have all the features of Relighting and hardly any menu, but it does have unique directional lighting based on brightmaps, dynamic sprite shadows, baked lighting, and far superior performance. I added a "thinker grid" to vastly reduce the number of iterations. On my rig I consistently get 200+ fps with ReLite, shadows, lights, and all.

ReLite will take longer to load larger maps, because it doesn't choose sectors and lines based on statistics. It looks at everything. Other than that and lacking a few features it accomplishes more or less the same thing.

I’m writing a message to this topic for the second time, since the first one was rejected, thinking that I was a bot . I want to contact the author of the mod directly if there is such a possibility and he is not very busy, thanks in advance.

I was hoping to find a mod that recolored Doom maps on the fly. I just wish it had ways to make it more like the PS1 version's colored lighting:

*Sectors with liquids are colored like that liquid
*Small sectors with crucial pickups (keys, armor, Soulsphere) are colored like that pickup
*Sectors near locked doors are colored like the required keycard

This?

A small update: I noticed while testing things that if I turn on "Light Shadowmaps" the room looks more normal *until* the doors open. As they open it gets darker in there. So it really looks like there's somehow a dynamic light that's casting darkness rather than brightness? Is that even possible?

Interesting. You can try turning off "Subtractive Lighting" under "How Light Interacts with Map" - these are applied sparingly to some outside textures. That's the only lighting that would cast darkness I can think of.

Got a new computer. Installed GZDoom clean, installed the latest version of your mod, launched Hexen with no other mods in GZDoom 4.12.1, the issue of the unusually black room persists still.

So it's... not limited to a single computer, and it happens with a fresh install with default settings, at least.

Relighting has many small bugs and is not well optimized for some areas and scenarios. Many of these issues are fixed in the fork ReLite, which needs texture brightmaps loaded as well for proper lighting. You might have better luck with that.
