| 29 | 19 * Cleaned out DOS-related mouse and BGI code, or at least most of it. |
| 20 Also got rid of far memory routines and swapping, etc. cruft. | |
| 21 | |
| 22 * Included few of the patches from Yadex Patch Page at | |
| 23 http://glbsp.sourceforge.net/yadex/ , with fixes and modifications. | |
| 24 Included are: | |
| 25 | |
| 26 - 3D preview patch by Andrew Apted. | |
| 27 - Find patch by Barry Mead. | |
| 28 | |
| 29 * Added in "panning" in the editor via middle/third mouse button. | |
| 30 | |
| 31 * Added in incremental selection via secondary mouse button, | |
| 32 same se ctrl + first mouse button (usually left mouse button.) | |
| 33 | |
| 34 * Build system fixes and other smaller fixes. | |
| 35 | |
| 36 | |
| 0 | 37 Yadex 1.7.0 (2003-12-28) |
| 38 | |
| 39 * Build: The configure script autodetects the C and C++ compiler (cc, | |
| 40 c89 or gcc and c++, cxx or g++). To skip the detection and force a | |
| 41 particular value, use the --cc and --cxx options. | |
| 42 | |
| 43 * Code: Minor warningectomy. Fixed potential uses of uninitialised | |
| 44 pointers if wad I/O errors occurred while reading the texture list. | |
| 45 | |
| 46 * Editing: Improved the handling of superimposed objects. | |
| 47 + The linedef object info box now lists any superimposed linedefs | |
| 48 (up to seven). No such feature for vertices, sectors and | |
| 49 things, mainly because it doesn't seem to be as big an issue | |
| 50 and I'm lazy. | |
| 51 + When the pointer is over more than one object, it's now the | |
| 52 highest-numbered one that's highlighted and not the | |
| 53 lowest-numbered as it used to be. Thus the highlight and the | |
| 54 info box match the display (that shows the highest-numbered | |
| 55 object and always has), which should be less confusing. | |
| 56 Highlighting the highest-numbered object seems to be the right | |
| 57 thing too, since the object you created last is the one you're | |
| 58 most likely to want to edit or delete. This change only affects | |
| 59 vertices, linedefs and things. For sectors, the code hasn't | |
| 60 changed. | |
| 61 | |
| 62 * Game/wad: Heretic: correct definitions for linedef types 28, 33, | |
| 63 99, 105, 107-141 and sector types 4, 21-51, courtesy of Barry Mead. | |
| 64 Correct definitions for linedef types 35, 40, 100 and 106 and | |
| 65 sector type 11. | |
| 66 | |
| 67 * Game/wad: Doom (all versions), Heretic and Strife: | |
| 68 + Linedef type 68 is now described as "raise floor" and not | |
| 69 "lower floor". This error can be traced back to... DEU 5.21. | |
| 70 + Linedef types 36 and 98 are now described as "lower turbo | |
| 71 floor" instead of "lower floor fast". The UDS inaccurately list | |
| 72 these types (as well as 70 and 71) as "fast", even though | |
| 73 they're "turbo" (4 × FLOORSPEED). | |
| 74 + Linedef types 70 and 71 are now described as "lower turbo | |
| 75 floor" instead of just "lower floor". This one is all mine. | |
| 76 + Linedef types 35 and 79 are now described as "light level goes | |
| 77 to 35", not "light level goes to 0". The UDS needs a | |
| 78 correction. | |
| 79 | |
| 80 Thanks to Barry Mead for pointing out these errors. | |
| 81 | |
| 82 * Misc: Finished the alternative (black-on-white) colour scheme. To | |
| 83 use it, compile with CXXFLAGS=-DWHITE_BACKGROUND. There are a few | |
| 84 remaining problems in view*. | |
| 85 | |
| 86 * Misc: Fixed geometry problems in Input2Numbers() (as used in Rotate | |
| 87 And Scale Objects, Insert Rectangle, etc.). | |
| 88 | |
| 89 Yadex 1.6.0 (2003-04-01) | |
| 90 | |
| 91 * BSP: Removed the old buggy patched up BSP 2.3. People should | |
| 92 download BSP 5 from http://doombsp.sourceforge.net/, which is a | |
| 93 much better nodes builder. | |
| 94 | |
| 95 * Build: Changed the "! grep" command in the makefile so that it does | |
| 96 not match itself. Also added a dummy "true;" in front of it because | |
| 97 GNU make 3.76.1 does not seem to like commands that begin with "!" | |
| 98 (says "Error 1" and bails out). | |
| 99 | |
| 100 * Build: Removed the empty lines in the makefile's output. Small | |
| 101 fixes w.r.t. $(HAVE_GCC), "make showconf" and elsewhere. | |
| 102 | |
| 103 * Build: As scripts/ftime can't be shared across builds, it's now put | |
| 104 in obj/0/, making it possible to build for different architectures | |
| 105 from the same tree without having to type "make clean" between the | |
| 106 builds. | |
| 107 | |
| 108 * Build: Not using "test -e" anymore in the makefile. This should fix | |
| 109 build problems on OpenServer, UnixWare, Solaris and other unices | |
| 110 with a non-POSIX /bin/sh. Thanks to Udo Munk and Oliver Kraus for | |
| 111 telling me about it. | |
| 112 | |
| 113 * Build: "make clean" and "make dclean" now remove obj and dobj | |
| 114 respectively. This is for UnixWare where reportedly "ln -sf" does | |
| 115 not overwrite dangling symlinks. Thanks to Udo Munk for warning me | |
| 116 about it. | |
| 117 | |
| 118 * Build: "make clean" now removes the doc directory as suggested by | |
| 119 Udo Munk. | |
| 120 | |
| 121 * Build: The man page is now named yadex-VERSION. "yadex" is a | |
| 122 symlink to the above. This means that the day you install version | |
| 123 1.7, you will still have access to the man page of version 1.6 by | |
| 124 typing "man yadex-1.6.0". | |
| 125 | |
| 126 * Build: The system fingerprint is now much shorter to avoid build | |
| 127 errors on QNX where the native fs limits file names to 48 | |
| 128 characters. | |
| 129 | |
| 130 * Build: Files installed by "make install" are now owned by the user | |
| 131 who ran "make install", instead of the user who ran "make". | |
| 132 Typically, when installing in /usr/local, files are now owned by | |
| 133 something like root:root instead of user:user. | |
| 134 | |
| 135 * Build: Files installed by "make install" now have their mode forced | |
| 136 to something sensible (i.e. 755 or 644), regardless of whatever | |
| 137 umask the users who built and installed happen to have. | |
| 138 | |
| 139 * Build: Use "rm -f new && ln -s old new" instead of "ln -sf old new" | |
| 140 for compatibility with Solaris 2.6 where reportedly "ln -sf" does | |
| 141 not overwrite the destination. | |
| 142 | |
| 143 * Build: New configure script. "Not the famous GNU autoconf, but an | |
| 144 incredible simulation". | |
| 145 | |
| 146 Installing in an other directory than /usr/local is now done by | |
| 147 giving ./configure the --prefix option. The old method (overriding | |
| 148 the PREFIX makefile variable) is not supported anymore. | |
| 149 | |
| 150 Some configuration variables (whether gettimeofday(), nanosleep(), | |
| 151 snprintf() and usleep() are present) are now detected automatically | |
| 152 by configure. | |
| 153 | |
| 154 Others (CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS, X11LIBDIR and X11INCLUDEDIR) are | |
| 155 still set in the Makefile. | |
| 156 | |
| 157 * Build: Removed the merging of stderr with stdout from the makefile | |
| 158 recipes. It was just a commodity and nobody else does that. | |
| 159 | |
| 160 * Build: The compilation and linking recipes in the makefile now | |
| 161 print the actual commands being run. Now that the defines are | |
| 162 passed via config.h and not on the command line, command length is | |
| 163 not as big an issue as it used to be. | |
| 164 | |
| 165 * Code: Changed the input event type from int to unsigned short to | |
| 166 avoid wasting too much space in the menus. | |
| 167 | |
| 168 * Code: Fixed bug in hextoi() : due to a typo, upper case letters in | |
| 169 hexadecimal numbers were evaluated to 75 instead of 10 through 15. | |
| 170 | |
| 171 * Code: Used mkstemp() instead of tempnam() to shut warning on | |
| 172 FreeBSD (thanks to Colin Phipps for the report) and with recent | |
| 173 versions of Glibc. While I was at it, changed the temporary file | |
| 174 name prefix from "{DEU}" to "$TMPDIR/yadexswp??????" (or "/tmp/ | |
| 175 yadexswp??????" if $TMPDIR is not set). | |
| 176 | |
| 177 * Code: Certain variables have been changed from integer to unsigned | |
| 178 integer. Better syntax checking for unsigned integers. Trailing | |
| 179 spaces no longer cause syntax errors. | |
| 180 | |
| 181 * Code: The diff distribution is now made with "diff -a" to cope with | |
| 182 binary files that change between versions. Thanks to Ouafae Kotby | |
| 183 and Benjamin Bayart for telling me about this flag. | |
| 184 | |
| 185 * Code: The diff distribution is now a single gzipped file instead of | |
| 186 a tarball (the README has been inlined). | |
| 187 | |
| 188 * Code: Changed all occurrences of "gray" to "grey" since apparently | |
| 189 "gray" is an americanism. | |
| 190 | |
| 191 * Code: Fixed bug in Img::resize() when new width × height was the | |
| 192 same as old width × height. Spotted by IvL. | |
| 193 | |
| 194 * Code: Fixed x/y mix-up in DrawScreenText(). Spotted by IvL. | |
| 195 | |
| 196 * Code: Protected against inadvertent assignment or copy-construction | |
| 197 of classes for which those actions are not implemented by declaring | |
| 198 the corresponding methods private and not defining them. | |
| 199 | |
| 200 * Code: Removed non-portable "t" fopen() mode qualifiers. | |
| 201 | |
| 202 * Command-line: Options --help and --version now check for write | |
| 203 errors and exit with a non zero status should the occasion arise. | |
| 204 | |
| 205 * Doc: FAQ fixes. Updated the "supported games" section. | |
| 206 Clarifications, additions and corrections in the misc. op. | |
| 207 sections. | |
| 208 | |
| 209 * Doc: The welcome banner suggests "c" (instead of "c levelname" | |
| 210 which is not implemented). | |
| 211 | |
| 212 * Doc: Added complete copyright information to the man page and | |
| 213 "about" box. Author section in man page now gives proper credit to | |
| 214 contributors. | |
| 215 | |
| 216 * Doc: Updates to the hacker's guide. | |
| 217 | |
| 218 * Doc: s/ftp.cdrom.com/3darchives.in-span.net/g | |
| 219 | |
| 220 * Doc: users_guide.html has numbered heading and working links in the | |
| 221 TOC. Overhauled the sections about configuration and game | |
| 222 definition files. | |
| 223 | |
| 224 * Editing: Make linedef single-sided: the lower and upper texture are | |
| 225 cleared. The middle texture is set to the default. | |
| 226 | |
| 227 * Editing: Found a funny bug; if you tried to highlight a | |
| 228 way-off-screen sector at a high (> 3) zoom factor, sometimes the | |
| 229 sector actually appeared on the window, even though it was supposed | |
| 230 to be a few thousand pixels off-screen. I don't know if the | |
| 231 "oddity" is in Xlib, in the X server or in my video card but, | |
| 232 interestingly, the symptoms show up only when drawing horizontal or | |
| 233 vertical lines on the window, not when drawing oblique lines or on | |
| 234 the pixmap. | |
| 235 | |
| 236 Since it only occurs at high zoom factors, it must be some sort of | |
| 237 overflow error though it doesn't look like a 32-bit value being | |
| 238 truncated to 16 bits because the values are too small. Strange. I | |
| 239 dumbly worked around it by skipping off-screen objects. | |
| 240 | |
| 241 * Editing: A linedef, thing or vertex is highlighted if the pointer | |
| 242 is within 15 pixels of it. Previously, the threshold was 20 map | |
| 243 units which was too narrow at low zoom factors and too broad at | |
| 244 high zoom factors. This change makes drawing selection boxes in | |
| 245 crowded areas much easier than before. | |
| 246 | |
| 247 * Editing: Configuration variables thing_fudge and vertex_fudge are | |
| 248 gone, since they've been made irrelevant by changes in the | |
| 249 highlighting code. | |
| 250 | |
| 251 * Editing: If the pointer is within highlighting distance of more | |
| 252 than one thing, the one that is highlighted is the one in which the | |
| 253 pointer is, or the one that has the smallest radius, or the one | |
| 254 whose centre is nearest. Previously, the lowest-numbered one was | |
| 255 highlighted, making it impossible to select, say, a high numbered | |
| 256 baron standing in the same spot as an arachnotron. | |
| 257 | |
| 258 * Editing: Restored [Shift][Ins] that was inadvertently disabled | |
| 259 during the port to X. Thanks to Ingo van Lil for reporting this | |
| 260 bug. | |
| 261 | |
| 262 * Editing: If a linedef has a negative tag, tagged sectors are now | |
| 263 shown. | |
| 264 | |
| 265 * Editing: As per Ingo van Lil's suggestion, if a linedef is tagged | |
| 266 to more than one sector, a "+" is appended to the sector number in | |
| 267 the object info window. Similarly, if a sector is tagged to more | |
| 268 than one linedef, a "+" is appended to the linedef number in the | |
| 269 object info window. | |
| 270 | |
| 271 * Editing: In the object info window, tag 667 is now marked as | |
| 272 special. Yadex catches up with that newfangled Doom II thing. | |
| 273 | |
| 274 * Editing: The static text in the object info boxes is now a bit | |
| 275 dimmer to make the important information stand out. | |
| 276 | |
| 277 * Editing: Started working on a global mode, where you can work with | |
| 278 all types of objects at once, vertices, linedefs, sectors and | |
| 279 things. It's toggled by pressing [Ctrl][g] in the editing window. | |
| 280 Since it's an experimental feature, it comes with a big fat | |
| 281 warning, that you should take seriously. One known bug is that | |
| 282 selection is broken is this mode. Overhauled GetCurObject() to make | |
| 283 it able to cope with global mode. | |
| 284 | |
| 285 * Editing: [1] through [9] and [0] are now configurable through the | |
| 286 new variables "digit_zoom_base" and "digit_zoom_step". The default | |
| 287 values are set to roughly emulate the old behaviour but it's now | |
| 288 possible to have the zoom factor increase across the keyboard, for | |
| 289 instance. Patch by AJA. | |
| 290 | |
| 291 * Editing: New variable "blindly_swap_sidedefs" to prevent Yadex from | |
| 292 asking for confirmation when swapping sidedefs. Patch by AJA. | |
| 293 | |
| 294 * Editing: Placeat AJA, it's now possible to toggle the object info | |
| 295 boxes with [i]. Toggling the info bar is now bound to [Alt][i]. | |
| 296 | |
| 297 * Editing: The "Info bar" item has been moved from the "Help" menu to | |
| 298 the "View" menu. Fixed misplaced underscore in linedef "Misc" menu. | |
| 299 Fixed misplaced tick marks (thanks to Ingo van Lil) and added | |
| 300 separations in the "View" menu. Added missing ellipses here and | |
| 301 there. | |
| 302 | |
| 303 * Editing: Removed the sudden jump (down) in the size of the vertices | |
| 304 when zooming in. | |
| 305 | |
| 306 * Editing: Sectors are now shown in one of three colours : green for | |
| 307 sectors that have a tag, blue for sectors that have a type and cyan | |
| 308 for sectors that have both. Previously, all tagged sectors looked | |
| 309 the same, whether they had a type or not. | |
| 310 | |
| 311 * Editing: Integer entry: you can now enter hexadecimal or octal | |
| 312 numbers by prefixing them with "0x" or "0", as in C. This should | |
| 313 make it easier to enter Boom generalized types. You are now allowed | |
| 314 to start the number with an explicit plus sign ("+"). The lower | |
| 315 limit has been pushed from -32,749 to -32,768. The upper limit has | |
| 316 been pushed from +32,749 to +32,767. For consistency with the rest | |
| 317 of the interface, if the current entry is invalid, it is shown in | |
| 318 red instead of dim grey. You are allowed to type more characters, | |
| 319 even if the current entry is invalid ([Return] is still disabled, | |
| 320 however). The message in InputIntegerValue() has been changed from | |
| 321 "Enter a decimal number" to "Enter a number". | |
| 322 | |
| 323 * Editing: Fixed segfault on "Save as..." on a new level (i.e. opened | |
| 324 with the "create" command). This bug was there ever since 1.1. | |
| 325 | |
| 326 * Editing: On a new level (opened with the "create" command), the | |
| 327 level name and file name are now remembered so you don't have to | |
| 328 enter them again every time you save. | |
| 329 | |
| 330 * Editing: New function "cut a slice out of a sector" to easily split | |
| 331 doughnut-shaped sectors. Shortcut is [Ctrl][k]. See | |
| 332 users_guide.html for details. Thanks to Jim Flynn for writing a | |
| 333 similar function in DETH, which I used as a reference. | |
| 334 | |
| 335 * Editing: Setting things flags by value now allows any value between | |
| 336 0 and 65,535 (instead of 1 through 31). The word "decimal" has been | |
| 337 removed from the menu item since you can now enter hexadecimal as | |
| 338 well. | |
| 339 | |
| 340 * Editing: [n], [p], [<] and [>] work properly even if no object was | |
| 341 highlighted. | |
| 342 | |
| 343 * Editing: In linedef mode, linedefs that have no first sidedef, or a | |
| 344 bad sidedef number are drawn in red. | |
| 345 | |
| 346 * Game/wad: MBF: changed the radius of the dog from 16 to 12. Thanks | |
| 347 to AJA for pointing it out. | |
| 348 | |
| 349 * Game/wad: Boom: added all of Boom's 130 non-generalized linedef | |
| 350 types to doom.ygd and doom2.ygd. New "elevator" linedef type group. | |
| 351 Many thanks to AJA for typing in the ygd data. | |
| 352 | |
| 353 * Game/wad: Linedef types 33 and 34 were incorrectly labelled "yel" | |
| 354 and "red" instead of the other way around. Thanks to Ingo van Lil | |
| 355 for pointing this out. | |
| 356 | |
| 357 * Game/wad: Linedef type 96 was incorrectly marked "W1" instead of | |
| 358 "WR". Spotted by IvL. | |
| 359 | |
| 360 * Game/wad: Hexen: added to hexen.ygd a couple of things types and | |
| 361 most sector and linedef types. Linedefs now have their tag set to | |
| 362 arg1. It used to be left uninitialized, which is why so many | |
| 363 linedefs were shown in red on the map. | |
| 364 | |
| 365 * Game/wad: Linedef types 105 and 111 had their descriptions | |
| 366 reversed. Don't blindly trust the UDS. Spotted by AJA. | |
| 367 | |
| 368 * Game/wad: Gave a sprite to Doom thing type 23 (dead lost soul), | |
| 369 SKULK. | |
| 370 | |
| 371 * Game/wad: Strife: definitions for thing types 10, 27, 46, 50, 81, | |
| 372 137, 138, 2018, 2019 and 2026. | |
| 373 | |
| 374 * Game/wad: Hexen: definitions for things 122, 124 and 8004. | |
| 375 | |
| 376 * Misc: Flat/patch/sprite/texture viewer: restored ability to save to | |
| 377 file by pressing [Shift][F1]. | |
| 378 | |
| 379 * Misc: Flat/patch/sprite/texture viewer: not unnecessarily | |
| 380 refreshing the whole image window anymore when browsing patches or | |
| 381 sprites. | |
| 382 | |
| 383 * Misc: Texture viewer: new bindings [Ctrl][a] [Ctrl][x] to change | |
| 384 the number of patches shown. | |
| 385 | |
| 386 * Misc: Most I/O errors occurring while reading wads are now handled | |
| 387 gracefully (fewer gratuitous calls to fatal_error()). | |
| 388 | |
| 389 * Misc: The menu code (menu.cc and oldmenus.cc) has been partly | |
| 390 rewritten. Made the automatic shortcuts case-sensitive to allow up | |
| 391 to 61 entries instead of just 35. Option numbers shortcuts are | |
| 392 framed with dimmer square brackets, instead of parentheses. | |
| 393 Implemented separations. Two extra pixels of space between lines. | |
| 394 Tick marks now look like tick marks, not asterisks. Unticked | |
| 395 entries now have a dash in front of them. | |
| 396 | |
| 397 * Misc: The search paths for game definition files and configuration | |
| 398 files have changed in several ways. | |
| 399 | |
| 400 Some config file search directories have changed for conformance to | |
| 401 the FHS. If the prefix is "/usr/local", the path is now "/etc/ | |
| 402 yadex" instead of "/usr/local/etc/yadex". If the prefix is "/opt/ | |
| 403 something", the path is now "/etc/opt/something" instead of "/opt/ | |
| 404 something/etc/yadex". The practical consequence for the 90% of you | |
| 405 who install in /usr/local is that the system-wide config file has | |
| 406 moved from /usr/local/etc to /etc. | |
| 407 | |
| 408 Overriding the prefix now actually works for other prefixes than / | |
| 409 usr and /usr/local. The problem was that, even though the makefile | |
| 410 installed the files in the proper directories, the yadex binary | |
| 411 looked for them in /etc, /usr and /usr/local, regardless of the | |
| 412 prefix. Thanks to Oliver Kraus and Udo Munk for clueing me in. | |
| 413 | |
| 414 Yadex used to look for files in places where it shouldn't have. For | |
| 415 example, it looked for game definition files in /usr even if | |
| 416 compiled for /usr/local and vice-versa. Yadex now looks for files | |
| 417 only in the places corresponding to the prefix it was compiled for. | |
| 418 This makes it possible to have several builds of the same version | |
| 419 of Yadex on the same machine without unwanted interactions, as long | |
| 420 as they're compiled for different prefixes. Note, however, that / | |
| 421 etc/yadex is used by both /usr and /usr/local but that is mandated | |
| 422 by the FHS and there's nothing I can do. | |
| 423 | |
| 424 The search directories relative to $YADEX_DIR have been removed | |
| 425 from the Unix version (they were intended for DOS). | |
| 426 | |
| 427 See users_guide.html for the exact contents of the new search | |
| 428 paths. | |
| 429 | |
| 430 * Misc: Config file: bumped the config file version# from 3 to 4. | |
| 431 | |
| 432 * Misc: Fixed strange reactions to percent character ("%") in the | |
| 433 file name entry box. | |
| 434 | |
| 435 * Misc: Slightly less chaotic output in verbose mode. | |
| 436 | |
| 437 * Misc: Fixed a memory leak that occurred when repeatedly reloading a | |
| 438 wad. This log entry is particularly delightful because that leak | |
| 439 was introduced by me in version 1.5.0 while trying to fix a bug in | |
| 440 the same code that was, guess what, an fd leak. For the | |
| 441 historically minded, that fd leak goes back to at least DEU 5.21. | |
| 442 Try it. It's easily exercised by loading the same wad over and | |
| 443 over. After about 20 iterations, you are rewarded with "patch wad | |
| 444 file xxx doesn't exist. Ignored.". | |
| 445 | |
| 446 * Misc: Removed from the makefile unflattering comments on bzip2's | |
| 447 celerity that came from using an old version. | |
| 448 | |
| 449 * Misc: Decapitalised object type names (GetObjectTypeName()). | |
| 450 | |
| 451 * Misc: Fixed display bug in sector# and sidedef# entry box | |
| 452 (InputObjectXref()). | |
| 453 | |
| 454 * Misc: The config file search algorithm has been modified to support | |
| 455 multiple config files. The old algorithm was to walk the search | |
| 456 path front to back and stop at the first match. The new algorithm | |
| 457 is to walk the path back to front and use all the matches. Thus | |
| 458 local files inherit parameter settings from global files and still | |
| 459 have the possibility to selectively override them (i.e. you can | |
| 460 override some parameters and inherit the others). | |
| 461 | |
| 462 For example, assuming /etc/yadex/1.6.0/yadex.cfg contains : | |
| 463 | |
| 464 a = old | |
| 465 b = old | |
| 466 | |
| 467 and ./yadex.cfg contains : | |
| 468 | |
| 469 a = new | |
| 470 c = new | |
| 471 | |
| 472 the net effect is : | |
| 473 | |
| 474 a = new | |
| 475 b = old | |
| 476 c = new | |
| 477 | |
| 478 The motivation for the change was to allow users to put most of | |
| 479 their settings in global config files, either system wide or | |
| 480 per-user. When local files exist, they should contain only the | |
| 481 minimum, i.e. just those settings you want to override. This way of | |
| 482 doing has several advantages over the previous all-or-nothing | |
| 483 system. Obviously, you can now change a setting globally by editing | |
| 484 just one file, even if you have many local config files. Upgrades | |
| 485 are also smoother because any new variable definitions appearing in | |
| 486 global config files propagate even if local config files exist. | |
| 487 Finally, it's much easier to figure what local files are meant to | |
| 488 do because everything they contain is meaningful. | |
| 489 | |
| 490 * Misc: Removed the start-up message stating that "this program is | |
| 491 derived from DEU 5.21 by Raphaël Quinet and Brendon Wyber" (for | |
| 492 clarity, not because I'm in denial). | |
| 493 | |
| 494 * Platform: On DOS, the PPM files created by "make_palette_ppm" and | |
| 495 "mp2" now have correct CRLF line terminators instead of LFCR. | |
| 496 | |
| 497 * Platform: Wart in gfx.cc to cope with QNX where DisplayWidth() and | |
| 498 DisplayHeight() return silly values. | |
| 499 | |
| 500 * Platform: Added support for 16-colour displays. Tested with the | |
| 501 XFree86 VGA16 server which, when running in 640x480x16 (VGA mode | |
| 502 12h), provides a PseudoColor or StaticColor visual with an 8 bits | |
| 503 per pixel pixmap format. If there are any servers that expect a | |
| 504 pixmap format with a number of bits per pixel that is not a | |
| 505 multiple of 8, they're still unsupported. | |
| 506 | |
| 507 * Platform: Reworked the pixmap format selection code. Should not | |
| 508 change anything for most people. | |
| 509 | |
| 510 * Platform: Compiles and runs on HP-UX 10.0 (with GCC 3.0.1). | |
| 511 | |
| 512 * Platform: Compiles on Linux PPC (with GCC 3.1). Thanks to Mark | |
| 513 Brown for the patch. | |
| 514 | |
| 515 Yadex 1.5.2 (2001-06-30) | |
| 516 | |
| 517 * Platform: Compiles with GCC 3.0 (added std:: qualifiers where they | |
| 518 were missing and removed #ifdef inside printf()). | |
| 519 | |
| 520 Yadex 1.5.1 (2000-12-12) | |
| 521 | |
| 522 * Platform: One-line fix in menu.cc to please GCC 2.96 (of Red Hat 7 | |
| 523 fame). Thanks to Zebediah C. McClure for reporting the problem. | |
| 524 | |
| 525 Yadex 1.5.0 (2000-08-27) | |
| 526 | |
| 527 * Build: Changed the way the diffs are generated after reading more | |
| 528 carefully the patch(1) man page and learning the hard way that it's | |
| 529 a very bad idea to put absolute paths in patches. | |
| 530 | |
| 531 * Build: Made it easier to add or remove individual options in CFLAGS | |
| 532 and friends. | |
| 533 | |
| 534 * Command-line: New option -b to benchmark parts of Yadex. For | |
| 535 hackers only. | |
| 536 | |
| 537 * Command-line: Removed option -e in prevision of reuse for another | |
| 538 function. | |
| 539 | |
| 540 * Doc: Completed ygd.html. | |
| 541 | |
| 542 * Doc: Documented the usage of the LINES and YADEX_DIR environment | |
| 543 variables. | |
| 544 | |
| 545 * Editing: Things that have an illegal angle are now shown with the | |
| 546 angle Doom would see, instead of just a dot in the middle. The | |
| 547 emulation is believed to be accurate for angles comprised between 0 | |
| 548 and 359. Values outside that range have not been tested. | |
| 549 | |
| 550 * Editing: Things flags and linedefs flags now grouped by 4 for | |
| 551 readability. For linedefs, the decimal value of the flags field is | |
| 552 not shown anymore. | |
| 553 | |
| 554 * Editing: In the object info box, the type and description of the | |
| 555 current thing are now display in red if the type is invalid (i.e. | |
| 556 not defined in the .ygd). | |
| 557 | |
| 558 * Editing: The things and linedefs flags operations ([a], [b], [c]) | |
| 559 now set MadeChanges as they should have from the start. | |
| 560 | |
| 561 * Editing: The View menu now contains entries for "Show object | |
| 562 numbers" [&] and "Show grid" [h]. | |
| 563 | |
| 564 * Editing: The Edit menu now contains entries for "Snap to grid" [y] | |
| 565 and "Loc grid step" [z]. | |
| 566 | |
| 567 * Editing: Rearranged the sidedef object info windows so that the | |
| 568 textures are listed in a more intuitive order (upper, middle, lower | |
| 569 instead of middle, upper, lower). Made labels shorter in | |
| 570 preparation of the hypothetical inclusion of texture swatches in | |
| 571 the future. | |
| 572 | |
| 573 * Editing: Fixed long-standing buglet with the sidedef info saying | |
| 574 there are missing upper/lower textures even though both sectors | |
| 575 have a "sky" ceiling/floor. | |
| 576 | |
| 577 * Editing: Implemented showing object numbers for linedefs and | |
| 578 sectors. The placement of sector numbers is naive and inadequate | |
| 579 for sectors that don't have a simple convex shape, but it's still | |
| 580 better than nothing. Picked a somewhat brighter colour for object | |
| 581 numbers. | |
| 582 | |
| 583 * Editing: Linedef object info box: if the first sidedef is missing, | |
| 584 the message "(no first sidedef)" is printed in red instead of dim | |
| 585 gray. Same thing for the second sidedef if the "2" flag is set. | |
| 586 | |
| 587 * Editing: Removed careless dereferencing of SideDefs[] for bad | |
| 588 sidedef numbers in the sector selection code. I don't think this is | |
| 589 what caused the mysterious unreproducible segfault James Caldwell | |
| 590 reported, though. Made the object deletion function paranoid | |
| 591 (checks that the objects to delete actually exist). | |
| 592 | |
| 593 * Editing: When found superimposed linedefs after merging vertices, | |
| 594 the dialog box that asks whether they should be merged now mentions | |
| 595 the numbers of the first two superimposed linedefs found instead of | |
| 596 a laconic "Some linedefs are superimposed". | |
| 597 | |
| 598 * Editing: Zooming: the zoom factor is now displayed in percent, 100% | |
| 599 being 1/1. | |
| 600 | |
| 601 * Editing: Zooming: the zoom factors are now regularly spaced, with a | |
| 602 ratio of 1.414 between them. This removes the annoying "jump" | |
| 603 between the zoom factors greater than 1/2. It also fixes the | |
| 604 oddities that happened when zooming in after [`]. The ratio between | |
| 605 zoom factors can be controlled through the new parameter | |
| 606 "zoom_step". | |
| 607 | |
| 608 * Editing: Zooming: the "zoom" parameter has been replaced by the new | |
| 609 parameter "zoom_default". The latter is expressed in percent, not | |
| 610 in 1/n units. It's now possible to specify an initial zoom factor | |
| 611 of more than 1/1. When opening a new window, Yadex now adjusts the | |
| 612 zoom factor so that the level fills the window. Should you want to | |
| 613 revert to the old behaviour, you can do it by setting zoom_default | |
| 614 to 12. | |
| 615 | |
| 616 * Editing: ['] and [`] now go to the current centre of the level | |
| 617 (they used to go to where the centre was when the level was opened | |
| 618 or created). | |
| 619 | |
| 620 * Editing: [`] now has a menu item (View -> Whole level). | |
| 621 | |
| 622 * Editing: The grid has changed. There are now dots every step map | |
| 623 units, dim lines every 4×step units, normal lines every 16×step | |
| 624 units and bold lines every 64×step units. The new grid is supposed | |
| 625 to be less obtrusive visually, faster to display and more distinct | |
| 626 when scrolling. | |
| 627 | |
| 628 * Editing: New function to swap floor and ceiling flats of selected | |
| 629 sectors (Misc. operations -> Swap flats). | |
| 630 | |
| 631 * Editing: When not in things mode, things are drawn in a dimmer | |
| 632 shade of gray and do not hide the linedefs anymore. | |
| 633 | |
| 634 * Game/wad: Removed the "-g wolf" bit. [For those who still haven't | |
| 635 got it : the support for Wolfenstein 3D announced in the CHANGES | |
| 636 for version 1.4.0 was of course a hoax, 1.4.0 having been released | |
| 637 on April 1st.] Hope you've been having as much fun as I have. :-) | |
| 638 | |
| 639 * Game/wad: Heretic: made the golem leader ghost, undead warrior | |
| 640 ghost and golem ghost look a little more ghostly. Made the gargoyle | |
| 641 leader, golem leader and golem leader ghost look different from | |
| 642 their vanilla counterparts by using sprites IMPXD and MUMMY. | |
| 643 Assigned a sprite to things 31 and 32 (enchanted shield, SHD2 and | |
| 644 mystic urn, SPHL). | |
| 645 | |
| 646 * Game/wad: Heretic: corrected things radii in heretic.ygd, using | |
| 647 info2ygd and the Heretic source as a reference. Almost all radii | |
| 648 were wrong, a few grossly so (maulotaur, ironlich and gargoyle). | |
| 649 | |
| 650 * Game/wad: Strife: many new things and linedef types thanks to Matt | |
| 651 Miller. | |
| 652 | |
| 653 * Game/wad: Doom alpha 0.4: definitions for thing types 2020, 2036, | |
| 654 2038 and 2046. | |
| 655 | |
| 656 * Game/wad: Updated format comments in *.ygd. | |
| 657 | |
| 658 * Game/wad: Sprites in pwads now supported (between S_START/S_END or | |
| 659 SS_START/SS_END or SS_START/S_END). This fixes Yadex's failure to | |
| 660 show redefined sprites in alitcsf.wad, basilica.wad and | |
| 661 strifed1.wad. A few Aliens TC sprites don't work yet but it's for a | |
| 662 different reason (DEH). | |
| 663 | |
| 664 * Game/wad: Sprites now shown on the map when in things mode. You can | |
| 665 switch between sprites and squares with View -> Show sprites [%]. | |
| 666 New config file parameter "sprite_scale" to adjust the scale at | |
| 667 which sprites are displayed (default 100%). | |
| 668 | |
| 669 * Game/wad: The right sprite is shown, even if the sprites are not in | |
| 670 alphabetical order in the wad (cf BARWA0 in Strife). | |
| 671 | |
| 672 * Game/wad: The function to add pwads (be it from the command line or | |
| 673 with the "r" command) has been heavily reworked. It's more robust | |
| 674 and handles errors better. It does not leak file handles anymore | |
| 675 when you add the same pwad more than once. It also accepts to add | |
| 676 iwads, modulo a warning (though you should expect problems later if | |
| 677 you do that). The merging of the pwad directory into the master | |
| 678 directory is still lousy. | |
| 679 | |
| 680 * Game/wad: Fixed duplicate entries in the flat selector. This bug | |
| 681 was found by "Ras2". It happened whenever you added the same flat | |
| 682 thrice or more. | |
| 683 | |
| 684 * Game/wad: EDGE: added definitions for EDGE linedef types and things | |
| 685 types to doom.ygd and doom2.ygd. Thanks to Andrew Apted for | |
| 686 providing the ygd data. | |
| 687 | |
| 688 * Game/wad: EDGE: in sector mode, show information for EDGE | |
| 689 extrafloors if there are any. | |
| 690 | |
| 691 * Misc: A couple of calls to fatal_error() were turned into calls to | |
| 692 report_error() (don't abort). | |
| 693 | |
| 694 * Misc: New game definition file directive "sky_flat" to specify the | |
| 695 name of the "sky" flat. Replaced all occurrences of F_SKY1 by | |
| 696 references to this parameter. Fixes Check -> Check for missing | |
| 697 textures for Hexen and Strife. Bumped game definition file version# | |
| 698 to 4. | |
| 699 | |
| 700 * Misc: Because it seems to disturb people (and for the pleasure of | |
| 701 proving Matt wrong), I've made the texture selector clip textures | |
| 702 to size. Since there's no scrolling/zooming system yet, I also | |
| 703 enlarged the viewing area from 256×128 to 512×256 to alleviate the | |
| 704 lossage on large textures. | |
| 705 | |
| 706 * Misc: Removed the "Press Shift-F1 to save image to file" text in | |
| 707 the selector. It's been a no-op ever since 1.0, anyway. | |
| 708 | |
| 709 * Misc: In the selectors, pressing [F1] prints the location of the | |
| 710 current item to stdout (file name and offset). Works with flats, | |
| 711 patches and sprites but not textures. It's there to help trace Ras' | |
| 712 bug. | |
| 713 | |
| 714 * Misc: Made LoadPicture() nicer and safer. It gracefully bails out | |
| 715 if there are more than 20 errors on a single picture. It does not | |
| 716 make Yadex abort anymore on read errors in the header or column | |
| 717 offset table. I've done this by modifying wad_read_i16() and | |
| 718 wad_read_i32() so other functions might have been impacted. | |
| 719 | |
| 720 * Misc: Config file: commented out most settings (this has no visible | |
| 721 effect since those settings were just reiterations of the default | |
| 722 values built into the executable). Also changed the initialization | |
| 723 code so that Yadex can run without a config file. | |
| 724 | |
| 725 * Misc: Config file: unknown variables are ignored with a warning | |
| 726 instead of triggering a fatal error. The intent is to facilitate | |
| 727 sharing config files between versions. | |
| 728 | |
| 729 * Misc: Config file: bumped version# to 3. | |
| 730 | |
| 731 * Misc: Made Yadex use YADEX_GAME as documented and not Y_GAME. | |
| 732 Oops ! | |
| 733 | |
| 734 * Misc: New feature in the flat/picture/sprite selector to show where | |
| 735 the current image comes from (file name and file offset). For | |
| 736 debugging. | |
| 737 | |
| 738 * Misc: The window size (width/height and -w/-h) can now be expressed | |
| 739 in percent of the screen size, by appending a "%" to the value. The | |
| 740 default size, instead of being 640×480 in the executable and 900× | |
| 741 600 in the config file is now 90%×90%. It's still possible to give | |
| 742 absolute width and heights, of course. | |
| 743 | |
| 744 * Misc: No tantrum thrown if the game definition file contains no | |
| 745 thing directive. | |
| 746 | |
| 747 * Misc: Removed the check for sector headroom being < 1024 in Checks | |
| 748 -> Check for missing textures. It was sometimes annoying and | |
| 749 inaccurate anyway. | |
| 750 | |
| 751 * Platform: Images display correctly on packed 24-bit X servers (i.e. | |
| 752 bits_per_pixel actually is 24 and not 32). The scanline_pad member | |
| 753 of the ScreenFormat structure is now honoured (not that XFree86 | |
| 754 seemed to mind much when it wasn't). | |
| 755 | |
| 756 * Platform: Began to clean the code up to make porting less | |
| 757 difficult. | |
| 758 | |
| 759 * Platform: Added patch to get Yadex to compile with GCC 2.7 (patch/ | |
| 760 gcc-2.7.diff). GCC 2.7 is officially considered unsupported, | |
| 761 though. You're on your own. | |
| 762 | |
| 763 Yadex 1.4.0 (2000-04-01) | |
| 764 | |
| 765 * Command-line: The parsing of the command line arguments is now | |
| 766 case-sensitive. Yes, that's right, it used to be case-insensitive. | |
| 767 I never knew. I just realized it by accident. DOS is not dead. | |
| 768 | |
| 769 * Doc: The man page now has an "OPTIONS" section. | |
| 770 | |
| 771 * Doc: Three new makefile targets, man, dvi and ps, for people who | |
| 772 hack the doc. | |
| 773 | |
| 774 * Editing: Made object numbers slightly more legible in crowded | |
| 775 areas. | |
| 776 | |
| 777 * Game/wad: Added support for Wolfenstein 3D (-g wolf). | |
| 778 | |
| 779 * Misc: The code that parses the configuration file is smarter and | |
| 780 its error messages are more informative. Doesn't choke anymore on a | |
| 781 line containing just spaces or on comments not starting on | |
| 782 column 1. Thanks to "Ras2" for reporting the bug. | |
| 783 | |
| 784 * Misc: New commands "viewtex" and "viewflat" so that you can browse | |
| 785 textures and flats without having to open a level. This is | |
| 786 primarily useful to me, for testing purposes. | |
| 787 | |
| 788 * Misc: More sanitization : the parsing of the configuration file is | |
| 789 now case-sensitive when matching option names and values ("yes"/ | |
| 790 "no", "true"/"false", "on"/"off"). | |
| 791 | |
| 792 * Misc: The flat/patch/sprite/texture viewer does not flicker | |
| 793 anymore, and is somewhat faster when viewing textures. The list of | |
| 794 names in the flat viewer has grown from 3 to 5 lines. | |
| 795 | |
| 796 * Misc: The diffs are now in unified format (supposedly just as good | |
| 797 and IMHO clearer). | |
| 798 | |
| 799 Yadex 1.3.2 (2000-01-14) | |
| 800 | |
| 801 * Build: Oops ! I had forgotten to set CC and CXX back to their | |
| 802 "sane" values before cutting the 1.3.1 tarball. | |
| 803 | |
| 804 * Code: "make dist" now also generates a diff. | |
| 805 | |
| 806 Yadex 1.3.1 (2000-01-12) | |
| 807 | |
| 808 * Build: Fix for "Ras2"'s compile error with g++ 2.7.2.3 : | |
| 809 | |
| 810 c++ src/disppic.cc | |
| 811 In file included from /usr/include/g++-2.7/defalloc.h:24, | |

| 818 make: *** [obj/0/disppic.o] Error 1 | |
| 819 | |
| 820 * Build: Fix for HAVE_NANOSLEEP being always false. Thanks to "Ras2" | |
| 821 for pointing it out. | |
| 822 | |
| 823 Yadex 1.3.0 (2000-01-11) | |
| 824 | |
| 825 * Build: The makefile now honours the dependencies in yadex.dep. | |
| 826 | |
| 827 * Build: Support for FHS-compliant systems: "make install" now copies | |
| 828 the man pages into /usr/local/share/man/man6/ if /usr/local/share/ | |
| 829 man/ exists. If not, it still uses /usr/local/man/man6/ (requested | |
| 830 by Joseph Carter). | |
| 831 | |
| 832 * Build: Added "#include <stddef.h>" to fix compilation error on | |
| 833 wads.cc under Solaris. | |
| 834 | |
| 835 * Build: Downgraded the makefile and scripts to use the old backquote | |
| 836 syntax for command substitution, because Oliver Kraus' reports | |
| 837 suggest that the Solaris sh does not understand the "$()" syntax. | |
| 838 Barfulation ! | |
| 839 | |
| 840 * Build: New makefile target showconf that shows the value of all the | |
| 841 important macros as well as the output of certain commands. If you | |
| 842 have trouble compiling Yadex, mail me the output of "make | |
| 843 showconf". | |
| 844 | |
| 845 * Build: A bunch of little changes in the makefile to try to make | |
| 846 build problems on Solaris go away. | |
| 847 | |
| 848 * Doc: Fixed several discrepancies in README. | |
| 849 | |
| 850 * Game/wad: Support for the german edition of Doom II (as the iwad | |
| 851 has no MAP31 and MAP32, Yadex 1.1.0 and 1.2.0 used to say "this is | |
| 852 the shareware version of the game"). | |
| 853 | |
| 854 * Game/wad: Replacement patches in pwads are now supported, even if | |
| 855 between PP_START and PP_END. Fixes failure to see redefined | |
| 856 textures with mbfedit!.wad, alitcwad.wad and certainly many others. | |
| 857 Replacement patches in pwads not between P_START/P_END or PP_START/ | |
| 858 PP_END are not recognized anymore. Many PNAMES errors that would | |
| 859 have made previous versions of Yadex abort now just make it print | |
| 860 warnings. | |
| 861 | |
| 862 * Misc: Cleaned up the web page source and makefile. Added | |
| 863 documentation, should someone else take over maintainership. No | |
| 864 harm in dreaming. | |
| 865 | |
| 866 * Misc: New command viewpat to browse through the patches. | |
| 867 | |
| 868 * Misc: It's now possible to have several different versions of Yadex | |
| 869 installed simultaneously. Some paths have changed : | |
| 870 + $(PREFIX)/share/games/ is now $(PREFIX)/share/games/yadex/$ | |
| 871 (VERSION)/ | |
| 872 + $(PREFIX)/etc/yadex.cfg is now $(PREFIX)/etc/yadex/$(VERSION)/ | |
| 873 yadex.cfg | |
| 874 + ~/yadex.cfg is now ~/.yadex/$(VERSION)/yadex.cfg | |
| 875 + $(PREFIX)/bin/yadex changed to $(PREFIX)/bin/yadex-$(VERSION) | |
| 876 + $(PREFIX)/bin/ybsp changed to $(PREFIX)/bin/ybsp-$(VERSION) | |
| 877 + $(PREFIX)/bin/yadex is now a symlink pointing to yadex-$ | |
| 878 (VERSION) | |
| 879 + $(PREFIX)/bin/ybsp is now a symlink pointing to ybsp-$(VERSION) | |
| 880 | |
| 881 The insertion of a yadex/ component in the paths was done for two | |
| 882 reasons. In the first place, it was requested by Joseph Carter for | |
| 883 game definition files, to reduce clutter in $(PREFIX)/share/games/. | |
| 884 I extended it to configuration files because it I thought it was a | |
| 885 nice way not to clutter $(PREFIX)/etc/. On the other hand, it was | |
| 886 not done for man pages and executables because it would have | |
| 887 interfered. | |
| 888 | |
| 889 * Misc: Fixed bug where if you typed "yadex: c level", then created | |
| 890 or edited a level and then closed the editing window, you got a | |
| 891 dozen of messages like this one : "Warning: error freeing colour | |
| 892 00005820h (BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied))". | |
| 893 I hope this fixes the related item in TODO. | |
| 894 | |
| 895 Yadex 1.2.0 (1999-11-23) | |
| 896 | |
| 897 * BSP: Added missing newline in banner. | |
| 898 | |
| 899 * BSP: Silenced GCC 2.95.2 warnings about implicit braces. | |
| 900 | |
| 901 * Build: The makefile doesn't rebuild doc/ every time a source file | |
| 902 is changed anymore. | |
| 903 | |
| 904 * Build: Can now be built on machines where Perl is not installed. | |
| 905 | |
| 906 * Build: The doc can now be built on machines with a non-GNU find. | |
| 907 | |
| 908 * Build: Fixed compilation errors with GCC 2.95.2 in src/infobar.cc. | |
| 909 | |
| 910 * Build: Silenced most GCC warnings. | |
| 911 | |
| 912 * Code: Fixed a typo in the legal notices at the beginning of the | |
| 913 source files. | |
| 914 | |
| 915 * Doc: HISTORY renamed as CHANGES, since that seems to be a more | |
| 916 widespread convention. | |
| 917 | |
| 918 * Editing: The checks don't beep for every error anymore, just the | |
| 919 first one. | |
| 920 | |
| 921 * Editing: Object info window: the sprite and flats graphics don't | |
| 922 flicker anymore when the pointer moves from one object to another. | |
| 923 Besides, if the sprite is not found, displays the message | |
| 924 "sprite_name not found" instead of just a blank area. | |
| 925 | |
| 926 * Game/wad: Doom alpha & press release versions: it's now possible to | |
| 927 save levels. Note: they're saved to regular Doom format, not Doom | |
| 928 alpha format. | |
| 929 | |
| 930 * Game/wad: Doom II: The boss shooter thing now has a sprite | |
| 931 (BOSFB0). | |
| 932 | |
| 933 * Game/wad: Hacx and Aliens TC: fixed a bug that made Yadex segfault | |
| 934 when trying to edit a Hacx level (or alitcsf.wad from alntc19 | |
| 935 {a,b}.zip). | |
| 936 | |
| 937 * Game/wad: For homogeneity with DeuTex, less confusion and to reduce | |
| 938 the risk of conflicts with other applications, the game names for | |
| 939 Doom alpha 0.2, Doom alpha 0.4, and Doom alpha 0.5 are now | |
| 940 "doom02", "doom04" and "doom05" respectively instead of "alpha02", | |
| 941 "alpha04" and "alpha05". It follows that some command-line options | |
| 942 have changed : | |
| 943 + "-g alpha02" is now "-g doom02", | |
| 944 + "-g alpha04" is now "-g doom04", | |
| 945 + "-g alpha05" is now "-g doom05". | |
| 946 | |
| 947 Configuration file directives : | |
| 948 + "game = alpha02" is now "game = doom02", | |
| 949 + "game = alpha04" is now "game = doom04", | |
| 950 + "game = alpha05" is now "game = doom05". | |
| 951 | |
| 952 Paths : | |
| 953 + /usr/local/share/games/alpha02/ is now /usr/local/share/games/ | |
| 954 doom02/, | |
| 955 + /usr/local/share/games/alpha04/ is now /usr/local/share/games/ | |
| 956 doom04/, | |
| 957 + /usr/local/share/games/alpha05/ is now /usr/local/share/games/ | |
| 958 doom05/, | |
| 959 + /usr/local/share/games/alpha02.ygd is now /usr/local/share/ | |
| 960 games/doom02.ygd, | |
| 961 + /usr/local/share/games/alpha04.ygd is now /usr/local/share/ | |
| 962 games/doom04.ygd, | |
| 963 + /usr/local/share/games/alpha05.ygd is now /usr/local/share/ | |
| 964 games/doom05.ygd. | |
| 965 | |
| 966 * Game/wad: Fixed Yadex aborting when trying to view textures for | |
| 967 versions of Strife >= 1.1. The problem was that Strife 1.1 and | |
| 968 above use a different format for the TEXTURE1 and TEXTURE2 lumps | |
| 969 (Strife 1.0 uses the same format as Doom). New game definition file | |
| 970 directive "texture_format strife11" to support that format. | |
| 971 strife.ygd now contains "texture_format strife11". Added | |
| 972 strife10.ygd that is identical to strife.ygd except that it | |
| 973 contains "texture_format normal". Summary : | |
| 974 | |
| 975 + if you have the Strife 1.0 iwad, use "-g strife10" or "game = | |
| 976 strife10", | |
| 977 + if you have Strife 1.1 or above, use "-g strife" or "game = | |
| 978 strife". | |
| 979 | |
| 980 Thanks to Kim Parrott for reporting the bug and Len Pitre for | |
| 981 pointing me in the right direction. | |
| 982 | |
| 983 * Misc: The "dump" command now prints correctly the last line even if | |
| 984 the length of the lump is not a multiple of 16. | |
| 985 | |
| 986 * Misc: For homogeneity with DeuTex, the following game definition | |
| 987 file directives have changed : | |
| 988 + "texture_format alpha04" is now "texture_format nameless", | |
| 989 + "texture_lump texture1" is now "texture_lump normal", | |
| 990 + new choice "texture_lump none". | |
| 991 | |
| 992 * Misc: For homogeneity with DeuTex, automatic texture names for Doom | |
| 993 alpha 0.4 are now "TEXnnnn" where nnnn is zero-based. | |
| 994 | |
| 995 * Misc: Bumped game definition file version# to 3. | |
| 996 | |
| 997 * Misc: When trying to use a pwad as iwad, emit a warning instead of | |
| 998 seeing this as a fatal error. | |
| 999 | |
| 1000 * Misc: Added a palette viewer (PLAYPAL and COLORMAP). Can be run | |
| 1001 from the prompt with the viewpal command or from the level editing | |
| 1002 window with [Ctrl][P]. | |
| 1003 | |
| 1004 * Misc: The sometimes tedious pwad loading messages are not displayed | |
| 1005 anymore, unless in verbose mode. By default, Yadex now just prints | |
| 1006 which levels the pwad contains. | |
| 1007 | |
| 1008 Yadex 1.1.0 (1999-08-22) | |
| 1009 | |
| 1010 * BSP: Included Colin Phipps' fix for the bugs in bsp23bug.zip. | |
| 1011 | |
| 1012 * BSP: Renamed the executable and the man page as ybsp, to avoid | |
| 1013 having Yadex and Xwadtools overwrite each other's BSP. | |
| 1014 | |
| 1015 * BSP: The whirling baton is now disabled if stderr is not a TTY. | |
| 1016 This is the same thing Udo Munk did for Xwadtools' BSP with the | |
| 1017 -noprog option except that here it's automatic. | |
| 1018 | |
| 1019 * BSP: Made the man page spell out exactly which version of BSP this | |
| 1020 is. | |
| 1021 | |
| 1022 * BSP: Inserted notice in the banner that this is the version that | |
| 1023 comes with Yadex. In the online help, replaced "TMP.WAD" by the | |
| 1024 correct "tmp.wad". | |
| 1025 | |
| 1026 * Building: Fixed compilation error on line 44 of bitvec.h. | |
| 1027 | |
| 1028 * Code: Removed CR characters that remained in some of the source | |
| 1029 files. | |
| 1030 | |
| 1031 * Code: New function DrawScreenString(). Began to use it instead of | |
| 1032 DrawScreenText(). This should squash some latent bugs, for example | |
| 1033 regarding flat and texture names containing percent signs (%). | |
| 1034 | |
| 1035 * Code: Fixed constness warnings in cfgfile.cc. | |
| 1036 | |
| 1037 * Code: Replaced most occurrences of hard-coded 8 by one of WAD_NAME, | |
| 1038 WAD_FLAT_NAME, WAD_PIC_NAME and WAD_TEX_NAME. | |
| 1039 | |
| 1040 * Code: New directives level_format and level_name in the YGD files. | |
| 1041 As a result, been able to remove most tests on specific values of | |
| 1042 the game parameter. | |
| 1043 | |
| 1044 * Doc: Too many changes and additions to list. Since the last | |
| 1045 release, the HTML doc has doubled in size (from 80 kB to 160 kB). | |
| 1046 Added a dozen of screenshots. | |
| 1047 | |
| 1048 * Doc: In an attempt to make it easier to find what you're looking | |
| 1049 for, I've split the doc in a larger number of files, referred to by | |
| 1050 a top level index.html. | |
| 1051 | |
| 1052 * Doc: Moved the HTML doc and the man pages to the doc/ directory, so | |
| 1053 as not to clutter the base directory too much. | |
| 1054 | |
| 1055 * Doc: Man pages: the first argument of the .TH macro (the name) is | |
| 1056 now all caps since that's what (almost) everybody else does. | |
| 1057 | |
| 1058 * Editing: Autoscroll is now off by default -- use "autoscroll = | |
| 1059 true" in yadex.cfg if you want it back. | |
| 1060 | |
| 1061 * Editing: New bindings [e] and [Ctrl][e] to select all linedefs that | |
| 1062 belong to the same non-forked path. | |
| 1063 | |
| 1064 * Editing: New bindings [E] and [Ctrl][Shift][e] to select all | |
| 1065 single-sided linedefs that belong to the same non-forked path. | |
| 1066 | |
| 1067 * Editing: New functions to flip and mirror linedefs, sectors, things | |
| 1068 and vertices. | |
| 1069 | |
| 1070 * Editing: Fixed the "string art" bug. That was a subtle bug that | |
| 1071 happened only as a result of a rare chain of events. The recipe to | |
| 1072 it is to render a vertex unused (for example by deleting all the | |
| 1073 linedefs that use it), save the level, make a change that does not | |
| 1074 call for a rebuilding of the nodes (for example, moving a thing or | |
| 1075 changing an attribute of a sector), save the level, quit and load | |
| 1076 again. At that point, a nice surprise awaits you: the linedefs are | |
| 1077 all entangled (hence the name). Spectacular, and even beautiful, | |
| 1078 but also very annoying if you don't have a backup copy of your | |
| 1079 level. | |
| 1080 | |
| 1081 This is the same bug I thought I had fixed in Yadex 1.0.0_alpha3. | |
| 1082 In fact, I had cut one of the paths that led to it but the bug | |
| 1083 itself was still there. It reappeared in february 1999. | |
| 1084 | |
| 1085 * Editing: Fixed an old DEU bug where you sometimes couldn't select a | |
| 1086 newly created sector to the west of the level until you saved. | |
| 1087 | |
| 1088 * Editing: It's now possible to toggle linedef flags 8-15 and to | |
| 1089 specify linedef flags field values greater than 511. | |
| 1090 | |
| 1091 * Editing: It's now possible to set/clear/toggle things flags 7-15. | |
| 1092 | |
| 1093 * Editing: Made the Not-enough-player-starts and | |
| 1094 Not-enough-deathmatch-start dialogs on saving more intuitive (it | |
| 1095 was about time). | |
| 1096 | |
| 1097 * Editing: New function "Exchange objects numbers". | |
| 1098 | |
| 1099 * Editing: Things types are now displayed in decimal, not in | |
| 1100 hexadecimal. Other minor cosmetic changes. | |
| 1101 | |
| 1102 * Editing: The focus-on-object function now works much better. It | |
| 1103 does not land off-target or zoom in excessively anymore. | |
| 1104 Superimposed things and sectors containing other sectors or not | |
| 1105 containing their own centre don't confuse it anymore. It's still | |
| 1106 fooled by unclosed sectors, though. | |
| 1107 | |
| 1108 * Editing: Changed the meaning of [q]. It used to save and quit. Now | |
| 1109 it just quits (same thing as [Esc]). | |
| 1110 | |
| 1111 * Editing: The edit command can now edit levels of any name. If you | |
| 1112 had a wad with a level named "FOO" in it, you could edit that level | |
| 1113 by typing "edit foo". In case you're wondering, no there's no | |
| 1114 practical application to this (beyond experimenting). | |
| 1115 | |
| 1116 * Editing: Reminder to build nodes: the message is now more specific. | |
| 1117 | |
| 1118 * Editing: Command mode: typing ^D at the prompt now works. | |
| 1119 | |
| 1120 * Editing: Insert linedef and split sector: the new linedef now goes | |
| 1121 from the first selected vertex to the second and not the other way | |
| 1122 around. | |
| 1123 | |
| 1124 * Editing: Insert linedef and split sector: does not loop forever | |
| 1125 anymore if there are forks in the edge of the sector (for example | |
| 1126 like when trying to split between vertices 283 and 278 of MAP01 of | |
| 1127 Doom II). | |
| 1128 | |
| 1129 * Editing: [n], [p], [>] and [<] now move the view so that the object | |
| 1130 to highlight is under the pointer. | |
| 1131 | |
| 1132 * Editing: The messages displayed when loading pwads are more compact | |
| 1133 (several lumps are printed on the same line and groups of sprites | |
| 1134 are collapsed). The end marker for groups of flats, patches and | |
| 1135 sprites is now printed. | |
| 1136 | |
| 1137 * Editing: Flat/sprite/texture viewer : added bindings [Ctrl][u] and | |
| 1138 [Ctrl][w] to erase to start of line, [Ctrl][f] and [Ctrl][v] to | |
| 1139 page down and [Ctrl][b] to page up. | |
| 1140 | |
| 1141 * Editing: Flat/sprite/texture viewer : added bindings [Ctrl][PgUp] | |
| 1142 and [Ctrl][PgDn] to move to top and bottom of list, because [Home] | |
| 1143 and [End] will eventually cease to be available for that (they will | |
| 1144 be bound to SOL and EOL). | |
| 1145 | |
| 1146 * Editing: Flat/sprite/texture viewer : made [Up] and [Down] work | |
| 1147 even when there are duplicate names. | |
| 1148 | |
| 1149 * Editing: Flat/sprite/texture viewer : InputNameFromListWithFunc() | |
| 1150 is now genuinely case insensitive. The positioning in the list of | |
| 1151 names is now correct, even if the name given is lower-case. | |
| 1152 | |
| 1153 * Editing: Flat/sprite/texture viewer : reduced flickering (still | |
| 1154 room for improvement, though). | |
| 1155 | |
| 1156 * Editing: Flat/sprite/texture viewer : the current name was way too | |
| 1157 dim if not in the list. Fixed. | |
| 1158 | |
| 1159 * Editing: Flat/sprite/texture viewer : made image window 320x200 | |
| 1160 instead of 256x128. | |
| 1161 | |
| 1162 * Editing: Sprite viewer : new bindings [Ctrl][n] and [Ctrl][p] to go | |
| 1163 to start of next/previous group of sprites. | |
| 1164 | |
| 1165 * Editing: Sprite viewer : fixed display bug. | |
| 1166 | |
| 1167 * Editing: Spectres now look more like spectres. | |
| 1168 | |
| 1169 * Editing: Confirm-or-cancel dialogs: more intuitive. You can now | |
| 1170 confirm with [y] or [Return] and cancel with [n] or [Esc]. All | |
| 1171 other keys are ignored (previously, [y] confirmed and all other | |
| 1172 keys cancelled). Expose events are now handled (previously they | |
| 1173 were ignored). | |
| 1174 | |
| 1175 * Editing: Some abnormal conditions that used to trigger fatal errors | |
| 1176 now just cause a message error to be printed. The current operation | |
| 1177 is aborted but not the whole program anymore. | |
| 1178 | |
| 1179 * Game/wad: Fixed segfault on levels containing a thing of type 0 | |
| 1180 (like Eternal MAP25 and some Final Doom maps). | |
| 1181 | |
| 1182 * Game/wad: When reading a level from a wad, now verifies that the | |
| 1183 SECTORS, THINGS, VERTEXES, LINEDEFS and SIDEDEFS lumps have correct | |
| 1184 sizes and that sidedefs, sectors and vertices references are | |
| 1185 correct. | |
| 1186 | |
| 1187 * Game/wad: Final Doom : should be supported now. Yadex does not | |
| 1188 assume anymore that F1_START is always present, which caused it to | |
| 1189 segfault on either or both Final Doom iwads. | |
| 1190 | |
| 1191 * Game/wad: Heretic : added sprite names for 58 thing types. | |
| 1192 | |
| 1193 * Game/wad: Hexen : added very partial support (-g hexen). You can | |
| 1194 edit levels but not save them. Hexen-specific linedef and things | |
| 1195 fields are ignored, and so is the BEHAVIOR lump. Most definitions | |
| 1196 are missing. | |
| 1197 | |
| 1198 * Game/wad: Strife : added partial support (-g strife). Yadex now | |
| 1199 knows about the translucent linedef flag and the new sector types. | |
| 1200 Thanks to Len Pitre for the help. Still missing : the new things | |
| 1201 flags, most things types and linedefs types. Anybody wants to work | |
| 1202 on strife.ygd ? | |
| 1203 | |
| 1204 * Game/wad: MBF : supported. Yadex now knows about the friendly thing | |
| 1205 flag, thing type 888 (Dog) and linedef types 271 and 272 (transfer | |
| 1206 sky texture). | |
| 1207 | |
| 1208 * Game/wad: Doom press release pre-beta : supported (-g doompr). | |
| 1209 Added support for the PR picture format and the definitions for | |
| 1210 things 2016 (evil sceptre) and 2017 (unholy bible). | |
| 1211 | |
| 1212 * Game/wad: Doom alpha : read-only support (-g alpha02|alpha04| | |
| 1213 alpha05). Added support for the alpha picture format, the TEXTURES | |
| 1214 lump, the different level format and the incompatible level names | |
| 1215 (E1M10 through E1M13). | |
| 1216 | |
| 1217 * Game/wad: Added support for FF_START/FF_END in addition of FF_START | |
| 1218 /F_END. As a result, Yadex does not barf anymore on basilica.wad | |
| 1219 (but issue a warning). F?_START is not supported anymore ; it has | |
| 1220 to be FF_START. | |
| 1221 | |
| 1222 * Game/wad: Made "Post too long. Wad file might be corrupt" a | |
| 1223 warning, not a fatal error anymore. | |
| 1224 | |
| 1225 * Game/wad: New directives picture_format, texture_format and | |
| 1226 texture_lump in the YGD files, to support Doom alpha and Doom PR. | |
| 1227 | |
| 1228 * Misc: New command make_palette_ppm to generate a raw PPM file | |
| 1229 containing all the colours of the palette. | |
| 1230 | |
| 1231 * Misc: Cosmetic changes in the prompt and character mode interface. | |
| 1232 | |
| 1233 * Misc: make_gimp_palette : the generated palette files now include | |
| 1234 RGB values in the comments. | |
| 1235 | |
| 1236 * Misc: Removed from the menus the functions that were not | |
| 1237 implemented (File->Print, Edit->Find, View->3D preview). | |
| 1238 | |
| 1239 * Misc: Failure to load the specified X font is not a fatal error | |
| 1240 anymore. | |
| 1241 | |
| 1242 * Misc: New command line options --help and --version. | |
| 1243 | |
| 1244 * Misc: Bumped game definition file version# to 2. | |
| 1245 | |
| 1246 * Platform: Removed dependency on nanosleep(), strcasecmp() and | |
| 1247 strncasecmp(). Thanks to Udo Munk for pointing out that nanosleep() | |
| 1248 is not always available. | |
| 1249 | |
| 1250 * Platform: Now compiles with other compilers than GCC/EGCS without | |
| 1251 modifying the makefile. | |
| 1252 | |
| 1253 * Platform: New parameter idle_sleep_ms to set the time in ms between | |
| 1254 polls of the X server when the input queue is empty. | |
| 1255 | |
| 1256 * Platform: Previously, if the CPU and the X server had different | |
| 1257 endiannesses and the screen depth was more than 8 bits, sprites, | |
| 1258 flats and textures were displayed with wrong colours. This is now | |
| 1259 fixed. | |
| 1260 | |
| 1261 * Platform: The build, group, insert and save commands should now | |
| 1262 work correctly on big-endian machines. | |
| 1263 | |
| 1264 * Platform: The bell has been resurrected on X. | |
| 1265 | |
| 1266 * Platform: Should now compile on X11R5 systems (to be verified). | |
| 1267 Thanks to Udo Munk for the fix. | |
| 1268 | |

| 1272 guide. | |
| 1273 | |
| 1274 * Editing: Split linedefs and sector: new linedef now goes from 1 to | |
| 1275 2 and not the other way around. | |
| 1276 | |
| 1277 * Editing: Added scrolling with the arrow keys. | |
| 1278 | |
| 1279 * Editing: [Pgup], [Pgdn], [Home] and [End] now scroll one page at a | |
| 1280 time. | |
| 1281 | |
| 1282 * Editing: New variable autoscroll to disable autoscrolling. | |
| 1283 | |
| 1284 * Editing: New variables autoscroll_amp and autoscroll_edge to tweak | |
| 1285 autoscrolling. | |
| 1286 | |
| 1287 * Editing: New shortcut [x] to "Split linedef (insert new vertex)". | |
| 1288 | |
| 1289 * Editing: New shortcut [w] to "Split linedefs and sector". | |
| 1290 | |
| 1291 * Misc: Fixed segfault on trying to edit MAPnm in Doom/Heretic mode | |
| 1292 or EnMm in Doom II mode. | |
| 1293 | |

| 1295 palette file from PLAYPAL. | |
| 1296 | |
| 1297 * Misc: Bumped configuration file version# to 2. | |
| 1298 | |
| 1299 Yadex 1.0.0 (1998-12-26) | |

| 1304 | |
| 1305 * Editing: Fixed buglet in positioning of newly copied objects. | |
| 1306 | |
| 1307 * Game/wad: Game support: added definitions for Boom's things 5001 | |
| 1308 and 5002 (point pusher and puller). | |
| 1309 | |
| 1310 * Misc: Added reminder to build nodes after making changes. | |
| 1311 | |
| 1312 * Misc: Added magic string to configuration file. | |
| 1313 | |

| 1315 | |
| 1316 Yadex 1.0.0_alpha3 (1998-12-23) | |
| 1317 | |
| 1318 * Doc: A few additions/corrections in the hacker's guide. | |
| 1319 | |
| 1320 * Editing: Fixed spectacular corruption of linedefs (string art bug) | |
| 1321 that occurred if all you did during a given session was deleting | |
| 1322 vertices. | |
| 1323 | |
| 1324 Yadex 1.0.0_alpha2 (1998-12-22) | |
| 1325 | |
| 1326 * BSP: Included BSP 2.3 (thanks to Lee Killough). | |
| 1327 | |
| 1328 * Doc: Improved user's guide. | |
| 1329 | |
| 1330 * Editing: Added new commands [a], [b] and [c] to set, toggle and | |
| 1331 clear things and linedefs flags. | |
| 1332 | |
| 1333 Yadex 1.0.0_alpha1 (1998-12-17) | |
| 1334 | |
| 1335 * Code: Removed dereferencing of NULL pointer in | |
| 1336 ParseCommandLineOptions() (DEU). | |
| 1337 | |
| 1338 * Code: Replaced occurrences of "x==TRUE" and "x==FALSE" by "x" and | |
| 1339 "!x". | |
| 1340 | |
| 1341 * Code: Replaced occurrences of "x=TRUE" and "x=FALSE" by "x=1" and | |
| 1342 "x=0". | |
| 1343 | |
| 1344 * Command-line: You don't have anymore to put "-file" or "-pwad" in | |
| 1345 front of pwads names on the command line. E.G. you can type "yadex | |
| 1346 foo.wad". | |
| 1347 | |
| 1348 * Command-line: Deleted a few little-used or DOS-specific options. | |
| 1349 | |
| 1350 * Editing: Menu bar and pop-up menus much improved. | |
| 1351 | |
| 1352 * Editing: Info bar reworked. | |
| 1353 | |
| 1354 * Editing: When prompted to "Press a key to continue", you can now | |
| 1355 also press the left mouse button. | |
| 1356 | |
| 1357 * Editing: Grid: the grid step can now adapt automatically as you | |
| 1358 zoom in/out. | |
| 1359 | |
| 1360 * Editing: Grid: whether dragging is snapped to grid is now | |
| 1361 independent of whether the grid is shown or not (added flags | |
| 1362 grid_snap and grid_shown). | |
| 1363 | |
| 1364 * Editing: Added finer-grained confirmation options. | |
| 1365 | |
| 1366 * Editing: General editing: you can now scroll the map further from | |
| 1367 the centre of the level. | |
| 1368 | |
| 1369 * Editing: Added ['] to re-centre the window around the centre of the | |
| 1370 map. | |
| 1371 | |
| 1372 * Editing: Added [`] to re-centre the window around the centre of the | |
| 1373 map and adjust the zoom so that the map fills the screen. | |
| 1374 | |
| 1375 * Editing: Added [&] to show things and vertices numbers. | |
| 1376 | |
| 1377 * Editing: Autoscroll: scroll speed is now progressive. | |
| 1378 | |
| 1379 * Editing: Autoscroll: easier to use near the top of the window. | |
| 1380 | |
| 1381 * Editing: [Left], [Right], [Up], [Down] do nothing. | |
| 1382 | |
| 1383 * Editing: [Space] does not toggle move fast/slow anymore; it toggles | |
| 1384 between nominal zoom and x 4. | |
| 1385 | |
| 1386 * Editing: Highlighting of things, vertices and linedefs much | |
| 1387 improved. | |
| 1388 | |
| 1389 * Editing: Dragging objects is now done with the left mouse button | |
| 1390 instead of the right button. | |
| 1391 | |
| 1392 * Editing: Editing object properties is now done by double-clicking | |
| 1393 on the object. | |
| 1394 | |
| 1395 * Editing: Selection and drag-and-drop have changed a lot. | |
| 1396 | |
| 1397 * Editing: Selection box: removed the -a option and the addselbox | |
| 1398 parameter. Whether the selection box is additive or not is now | |
| 1399 controlled dynamically by the user (with [Ctrl]). | |
| 1400 | |
| 1401 * Editing: Sprite viewer: sprites are now centred. | |
| 1402 | |
| 1403 * Editing: Linedef info: shortened flags names to one character. | |
| 1404 | |
| 1405 * Editing: Linedef info: a missing normal texture on a 1-sided | |
| 1406 linedef is now flagged in red. | |
| 1407 | |
| 1408 * Editing: Linedefs copy: you now have the choice between duplicating | |
| 1409 the sidedefs too and reusing the same sidedefs. DEU left the new | |
| 1410 linedefs sidedef-less and, so far, Yadex used to reuse the same | |
| 1411 sidedefs. | |
| 1412 | |
| 1413 * Editing: Linedefs: added function to "unlink" sidedefs. | |
| 1414 | |
| 1415 * Editing: Linedefs: dragging linedefs is much faster than before. | |
| 1416 | |
| 1417 * Editing: Sectors: in the object info window, added display of floor | |
| 1418 and ceiling height delta with respect to previous sector. | |
| 1419 | |
| 1420 * Editing: Sectors: in the object info window, added display of floor | |
| 1421 and ceiling texture. | |
| 1422 | |
| 1423 * Editing: Sectors: dragging sectors is much faster than before. | |
| 1424 | |
| 1425 * Editing: Things: now drawn as squares so that it's easier to see | |
| 1426 whether they are stuck in a wall or another thing. And you don't | |
| 1427 have to highlight them to see their angle. Note: the old shape is | |
| 1428 still available by defining ROUND_THINGS at compile-time. | |
| 1429 | |
| 1430 * Editing: Things: changed the colours again. Tried to make important | |
| 1431 things stand out and conversely. Bonuses are now dark green and | |
| 1432 player/ deathmatch starts bright green. Keys are magenta. | |
| 1433 Decoration is dim blue instead of white. Unknown objects are cyan | |
| 1434 instead of white. Weapons are orange instead of brownish. Heretic | |
| 1435 sound source things and Boom point pushers are dim turquoise-ish. | |
| 1436 | |
| 1437 * Editing: Things: the sprite is now shown in the object info window. | |
| 1438 | |
| 1439 * Editing: Vertices: deciding whether a vertex is on a linedef is now | |
| 1440 done on the distance in pixels, not in map units. So you can now | |
| 1441 work on very fine details (E.G. vertices only 2 map units away) | |
| 1442 provided that the zoom factor is high enough. | |
| 1443 | |
| 1444 * Editing: Fixed minor glitch in texture viewer that showed with | |
| 1445 BIGDOOR7, SKY1, TEKWALL1, TEKWALL5 and others (DEU). | |
| 1446 | |
| 1447 * Editing: When highlighting a sector, compared SideDefs[LineDef | |
| 1448 [n].sidedef1].sector with ObjNum even though .sector was -1. | |
| 1449 Somehow it always tested false (DEU). | |
| 1450 | |
| 1451 * Editing: "Check textures names": the name of the offending texture | |
| 1452 is now printed correctly even if it is 8 characters long (DEU). | |
| 1453 | |
| 1454 * Editing: "Check textures names": if you fixed a missing texture, | |
| 1455 the editor was not made aware that you had made changes to the | |
| 1456 level (DEU). | |
| 1457 | |
| 1458 * Editing: Unused sectors are not selected anymore (DEU). | |
| 1459 | |
| 1460 * Editing: Changing the preferences could overwrite other variables | |
| 1461 (DEU). | |
| 1462 | |
| 1463 * Editing: InputNameFromListWithFunc() used to segfault if you | |
| 1464 pressed [Pgdn] on a list shorter than (listdisp + 1) elements | |
| 1465 (DEU). | |
| 1466 | |
| 1467 * Editing: Removed segfault in AlignTexturesX() (DEU). | |
| 1468 | |
| 1469 * Game/wad: Heretic is now supported. | |
| 1470 | |
| 1471 * Game/wad: Added support for Boom's new thing flags | |
| 1472 not-in-deathmatch and not-in-coop. | |
| 1473 | |
| 1474 * Game/wad: Added support for Boom's new linedef flag pass-through. | |
| 1475 | |
| 1476 * Misc: Renamed as Yadex to avoid confusion with Yet Another Diagram | |
| 1477 Editor. | |
| 1478 | |
| 1479 * Misc: Loading pwads: implemented standard directories. If the pwad | |
| 1480 to load is in one of the standard directories (or a subdirectory) | |
| 1481 you don't have to type the whole name. | |
| 1482 | |
| 1483 * Misc: Loading pwads: added standard directories and made the | |
| 1484 messages less verbose for pwads that contain patches (PP_START/ | |
| 1485 PP_END). | |
| 1486 | |
| 1487 * Misc: Removed segfault during fatal_error() on failure to open the | |
| 1488 iwad (DEU). | |
| 1489 | |
| 1490 * Misc: The prompt now groks TTYs with a number of lines other than | |
| 1491 25. | |
| 1492 | |
| 1493 * Misc: Changed the welcome message (a.k.a. "reminder"). | |
| 1494 | |
| 1495 * Misc: Added an "About Yadex..." window. | |
| 1496 | |
| 1497 * Misc: Don't copy SEGS, SSECTORS, NODES, REJECT and BLOCKMAP from | |
| 1498 the original file anymore when the map has changed. Makes smaller | |
| 1499 wad files. Nice for archival. | |
| 1500 | |
| 1501 * Misc: Added environment variable YADEX_GAME. | |
| 1502 | |
| 1503 * Platform: Ported to X (plain Xlib). This version is not available | |
| 1504 for DOS. | |
| 1505 | |
| 1506 * Platform: Now works on big-endian machines. | |
| 1507 | |
| 1508 * Platform: Removed several DOS-isms from file name handling code. | |
| 1509 |
