damerell Posted January 13, 2016 Rayzik said:Why keep a bugged feature for demo compatibility on demos that are probably reliant on the bug in the first place and as such are demos of unintended ways to complete a map in the first place? Seems like an inconsequential fix to me. Well, -complevels for older engines are meant to be bug-for-bug compatible; hence I would expect -complevel 11 to implement all known MBF bugs. I admit I don't really understand your rationale for using it, dehacked or no. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gez Posted January 13, 2016 If you want MBF features but no bugs, use complevel 17. 0 Share this post Link to post

Danfun64 Posted January 13, 2016 I asked about the 3 key bug before. Fabian answered by saying that "-complevel 11 -force_correct_code_for_3_keys_doors_in_mbf" will do the trick. Not that surprising, since both mbf-fixes and mbf 2.04 both fix the bug. 0 Share this post Link to post
Spectre01 Posted January 17, 2016 Is there a way to show FPS in GlBoom-Plus like with the vid_fps 1 command in GZDoom and Zandronum? I'd like to mess around with the video settings and see how much the performance is affected in large maps. 0 Share this post Link to post
scifista42 Posted January 17, 2016 "IDRATE" cheat code. There might or might not be a better alternative to it which I'm unaware about. 0 Share this post Link to post

I'm still having a problem with the translucency setting. Is there any way to change the rock solid projectiles in OpenGL mode? 0 Share this post Link to post
dugan Posted January 20, 2016 Is it possible for an end-user to fix the clipping audio in the FluidSynth backend, as noted here? https://github.com/andrey-budko/prboom-plus/issues/1 Are the console/ini options enough, or will the change have to be made at the source level? 0 Share this post Link to post
entryway Posted January 22, 2016 I added cap_fps config variable for smooth viddump. '--fps 35' part of cap_videocommand command line could be changed to '--fps %r' for auto replacement. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMqbPe1LEdk 0 Share this post Link to post

Linguica Posted January 26, 2016 So I'm using the 2.5.1.5 test, and when I select doom.wad as the IWAD, Episode 4 does not show up in the episode selection screen, and the IDCLEV command won't let me even warp to an episode 4 level. And yes I am positive I am using an Ultimate Doom IWAD. 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted January 27, 2016 You need to use -complevel 3 or higher for episode 4 to show up. Some background info: http://sourceforge.net/p/prboom-plus/bugs/49/ (or more specifically, this) 0 Share this post Link to post
Danfun64 Posted January 28, 2016 I'm experiencing an interesting bug. I made a wad consisting of the http://sc55.duke4.net/ boosted ogg music. However, the music doesn't loop. When I use the music in Crispy Doom (through using flacs and doom-music.cfg), it loops perfectly. One more thing to note, I am using the (at time of this writing) latest svn build on ubuntu 64-bit. 0 Share this post Link to post
Alter Posted January 28, 2016 EDIT: I want to report that I made the wad launch in prboom-plus 2.5.1.4 here's how the bug works, if you have a legit ANIMATED lump in the wad and then an empty marker called ANIMATED prboom-plus 2.5.1.4 will bomb out with no error, zdoom bombs out with an error that it tried to read past the ANIMATED lump. 0 Share this post Link to post

entryway Posted January 28, 2016 Can't reproduce. I downloaded doom2_sc55_ogg_v1.2.zip, extracted d_runnin.ogg and started "prboom-plus -file d_runnin.ogg -warp 1". Music loops fine. 0 Share this post Link to post
Danfun64 Posted January 28, 2016 It might be easier to reproduce if I provide the wad I made. http://www.mediafire.com/download/i4g41aqc2a7yoa1/prboom-d1andd2music.wad 0 Share this post Link to post

Danfun64 Posted January 29, 2016 To my surprise, loading the wad in crispy worked. So did the looping. I find it odd that the same wad would have working looping in crispy but not prboom plus. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lingyan203 Posted January 30, 2016 Will Prboom-Plus ever have zDoom features and/or can support other Doom engine games aside from Chex Quest, like Heretic, Hexen, or Strife? If there's already a topic about my above comment I am sorry for bumping it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gez Posted January 30, 2016 PrBoom+ already has some ZDoom features, for example loading maps with ZDBSP extended nodes, that's a ZDoom feature. But by and large, no. If you mean stuff like slopes, mirrors, 3D floors, ACS, DECORATE monsters and weapons, etc. you will not see that in PrBoom+. Likewise for other Doom engine games, PrBoom+ isn't going to be PrBeretic+ or whatever. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ashstrodamus Posted February 2, 2016 I've ranted and raved before, and I've gotten used to prboom+, but it does have a major problem with close range misses at point blank range. Sticking the SSG in a pinkie's mouth should blow him away, but a lot of times it goes right through him and hits the monster behind him. Never had this problem with skulltag. 0 Share this post Link to post
Edward850 Posted February 2, 2016 The correct answer is that Doom has a major problem with "close range misses at point blank range" (technically not the exact situation for the issue). PRBoom+ cannot afford to fix that without dropping demo compatibility, a rather critical and intended aspect of the port. 0 Share this post Link to post
Graf Zahl Posted February 2, 2016 ... and that's something that is basically unfixable in a port that's interested in demo compatibility. The changes needed to handle this are so invasive that it's either a complete parallel implementation of correct blockmap linking or some sync-critical incompatibility. 0 Share this post Link to post
Edward850 Posted February 2, 2016 Only the blockmap overflow. Fixing the interactions requires that objects are able to attach to multiple blocks at once (and in some cases scan multiple blocks), which even Eternity has had considerable trouble with doing while keeping compatibility, and it needs it for clean portal interactions. The short of it is even introducing the concept, even if it isn't active, seems to be enough to upset compatability. 0 Share this post Link to post
Azuruish Posted February 4, 2016 Can PRBoom record videos more than 35 FPS without issues? Just if i put 60 in CFG - Very fast speed of video playing + desynс of sound. 0 Share this post Link to post
scifista42 Posted February 4, 2016 It is possible (apparently), but you didn't also enable uncapped framerate, it would be either useless or broken. 0 Share this post Link to post
