Doom + TNT + proff + Budko = PrBoom+

[Bloodshedder]

Andrey Budko writes that he's released a new version of his PrBoom modification PrBoom+ (2.2.6.25). A lot of the changes are compatibility related, but it also doubles the sidedefs limit. Here's a nice history if you're really interested in all the changes.

Appears to be the best PrBoom yet. Impressive and nearly complete.

Yes, it's getting very hard to think of further feature requests or bugs to report. :)

Maybe improvements in GL rendering - more support for tricks like the deep water effect? Or a greater variety of bumpmapping styles, with different ones "smartly" applied to differing types of textures. How about it, Andrey? :p

[Ralphis]

any relation to bahdko?

[Grazza]

To the very best of my knowledge, Andrey "entryway" Budko and Laura "BahdKo" Hermann and not related.

I can think of a few things :

Heretic, Hexen and Strife support :-P

Damned straight. ;) Strife sure would be nice. I haven't played that in ages and SvStrife 1.0 gives me a black screen on boot.... what a bummer.

What's the sidedef limit in the official GL/PRBoom?

I'd like to see a more flexible and usable fake floor-texture feature. Last time I tried something kool it didn't work.

You missed cph out of the title...

Prboom+ has completely slipped me by. I wonder how many of the changes would be accepted back into prboom if development ever kicks up again.

Just as long as the heretic/hexen code isn't used (as it currently stands licence-wise).
