JadingTsunami Posted May 10, 2021 1 hour ago, Spectre01 said: Would it be possible to implement something similar to GZDoom's palette tonemap for OpenGL? That way there is an option to have GL look close enough to software while retaining its performance and other benefits. PrBoom+ supports custom shaders, so a mod implementing this palette code should be loadable in PrBoom+ already (may need to swap some variable naming around, depending on the specifics). 23 minutes ago, nobleflame said: Another quick question from me: do you know how to increase the res of skyboxes? I’m at 1080p and the skyboxes look like their at 800x600. The skyboxes should be the highest resolutions available to PrBoom as it is; have you seen any difference in other ports? 0 Share this post Link to post

Hi, yep, watching a Decino play through and it looked like his skybox in Eviternity was a lot more zoomed out and detailed. Mine looks very pixelated (I understand how dumb that sounds considering DOOM is made of pixels). 0 Share this post Link to post

If you can take some comparative screenshots and post it on the GitHub issue tracker (along with your settings/config file) it can be looked at. 0 Share this post Link to post

One other quick question (sorry about all of the questions). In other versions of PrBoom+ the automap would draw in as you moved about - I can't seem to find the setting for that to happen in UMAPINFO's latest version. Any ideas? Thanks again! 0 Share this post Link to post

Spectre01 Posted May 11, 2021 Is there any practical purpose to the automap not updating as you explore the map? 0 Share this post Link to post

Not really, I believe it only exists as an option because it's vanilla behavior for it to not update while using it. Edited May 12, 2021 by Terraformer9x 2 Share this post Link to post

Terraformer9x Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) This is a very specific question, are sound channels / prioritization handled differently when using PC speakers for sounds generally? Disregard this question, I found out what I needed. Edited May 14, 2021 by Terraformer9x : Question not necessary anymore 0 Share this post Link to post

nobleflame Posted May 14, 2021 I'm currently using a .bat file to launch my PWADS and I always include a -complevel # at the end of the parameter. e.g. prboom-plus.exe -file D2SPFX19.WAD Eviternity.wad -deh D2DEHFIX.DEH -complevel 11 However, this never updates in the settings under the 'default compatibility' option in the options menu. Today, for instance, Eviternity (MBF / complevel 11) wouldn't work as intended until I manually changed the complevel in the options. Any idea why that is? Thanks! 0 Share this post Link to post

maxmanium Posted May 24, 2021 Do we have a spec with respect to what new things have been implemented for DEHACKED (like extra sounds, blood splat color translations, etc.)? I ask because obviously these features are not present in any editors at the moment and I'm curious how you'd get them to work by manually typing them in the patch. 1 Share this post Link to post
Xaser Posted May 24, 2021 If you mean the extensions listed on the DEHEXTRA wiki page, these oughta be supported by WHackEd4 by selecting the "Doom Retro" config, or in DECOHACK by using the "extended" output format, though the extended sound range in particular got added pretty late so tool/port support for it might not be 100% just yet -- best check with the appropriate tool authors in case something seems missing. There's been some work in some ports/tools for some further extensions (the mysterious "MBF21"), but this is a work in progress and is not yet ready for general consumption in any sense. Anything else is likely to be a wild-west scenario at the moment. 1 Share this post Link to post
Shadow Hog Posted May 25, 2021 WhackEd4 supposedly already has the sounds implemented - I can definitely see relevant code for it on their Github. Only rub is, I haven't been able to compile a successfully-working build. It compiles, but immediately throws errors when run. I should probably post in the relevant thread about it, it's almost certainly an environment config issue on my end. Anyway, the new sounds start at 500, so just manually do it from there if you must. 1 Share this post Link to post
Ennello Posted May 26, 2021 I've been wanting to use the overlay decino uses for his videos (kill count etc.) for this port. However, I don't know how to get it to work. It's not in the default alternative huds, so is a certain download required? I probably overlooked some option somewhere, but I'd appreciate if someone could tell me how to get the hud to look like that... 0 Share this post Link to post

Decino uses DSDA-Doom, which is a fork of PrBoom+ meant for speedrunning. (Edit: Oops I should've also mention where the option to enable it is as well.)
