robotdog1 Posted May 11, 2015 Maybe something not very important, but I always thought that it was weird that Freedoom still uses the vanilla Doom II Quit message strings. Maybe we could change them to something more fitting for Freedoom using DeHacked. 0 Share this post Link to post
Clonehunter Posted May 11, 2015 What does "fitting for FreeDoom" really mean, though? The current ones are pretty basic, minus the ones that specifically mention demons. I suppose more insults could work. Or just jokes regarding Freedom, etc... 0 Share this post Link to post

scifista42 Posted May 11, 2015 You cannot change quit messages via DEHACKED. http://www.doomworld.com/vb/doom-editing/60530-cannot-re-modify-deh-patches/ 0 Share this post Link to post

There might be some way to do it through ZDoom extensions. We already have a MAPINFO lump for FreeDM. EDIT: Looks like you can change it using MAPINFO or LANGUAGE. Probably the latter would be best. 0 Share this post Link to post

Blastfrog Posted May 11, 2015 May as well write new obituary messages while we're at it. IIRC, several people have written some in past threads. 0 Share this post Link to post

Don't the various ports already have code that detects Freedoom IWAD's? If so, using an alternate set of quit messsages should be trivial. 0 Share this post Link to post

You mean after all these ports get updated again to know to display Freedoom-specific quit messages when running Freedoom IWADs? I wouldn't call it trivial. 0 Share this post Link to post
