HOM bug fix solutions

[The Doommer]

Hi ,  the thread isn't that simple as it looks. I know why HOM occurs and how to fix it , but let's talk about solving it inside the engines. Like replacing the missing texture with a simple texture or a smart AI to guess the missing texture (won't always result well but could be possible with a lot of coding.)

 

Any Ideas ?

 

We can even discuss other errors and bugs fix which are not fixed in Doom 1.9 and are possible to be fixed.

There is no way the engine can correctly guess what is actually HOM or a render trick. Missing textures are the biggest staple of vanilla compatible render hacks.
