Quick question, what does:

Internal compiler error at 737782 (0x00000000000b41f6)
Internal compiler error at 737721 (0x00000000000b41b9)

mean in the eduke32.log? My code compiles fine and there's nothing wrong in game, but still.

Wouldn't a software renderer not only put the main game logic on the CPU, but also all the renderering?

And the Pi isn't a particularly strong CPU to begin with.

That's not the case, since the CPU usage is not constant. Sometimes it's ~30% and others it's 100% of several cores. Something is going on.

No idea, I wish I made more information on when it started appearing but it just appears in the log file all the time:

I haven't seen any issues or had any crashes happen, the game runs fine otherwise it just shows this message in the log file.

[Hendricks266]

If it reliably happens at that point in loading, I can set a breakpoint at the place the message comes from and look around.

[TerminX]

You use SVN for AMC TC, right? Maybe you could bisect when the issue started occurring by using previous revisions, like we do with EDuke32.

[Jblade]

I'll see what I can do, if I find something I'll let you guys know.

[Hendricks266]

				else ifrnd 32 
					{
					ifvare ally_subtitles 0
						{
						state SOLDIER_NAMES
						qputs 7501 ^1%s: ^0We've got sierra tangos here.
						qsprintf 7501 7501 573
						setvar ally_subtitles 60
						}					
					sound EDFS_PARA_2
					}

			else ifrnd 8 
				{
				ifvare ally_subtitles 0

					qsprintf 7501 7501 573
					setvar ally_subtitles 45
					}				
				sound EDFS_INCOMING_2
				}

The calls to state SOLDIER_NAMES specifically in these two places are what is causing the message. I'm not yet sure why.

[Jblade]

That's quite strange indeed...that bit doesn't seem especially problematic coding wise (not compared to other stuff I've done anyway)

[Jblade]

I saw a whole bunch of new stuff in the synthesis recently which looks pretty useful - one quick question, what's actorsound do?

Also, what's the correct way to hide/remove the default ingame huds? Since times of old I've just locked the screensize to the largest one possible but I'd rather not lock it anymore especially with the new events and stuff.

that's simple enough, cheers!

Hi,

i have updated my installation to the latest synthesis build and noticed some changes in the polymer renderer regarding shadows and shading in general. I really like the new features, but is this still work in progress? In many areas of the levels the shadows fit perfectly, but in lot of cases it's too dark (my personal opinion). And it does help using the night vision goggles, cause the shader seems somehow to overlay it.

[darkprince227]

Happy new year, folks!

I just downloaded the latest eduke build, I noticed for some reason the vacation.grp wasn't listed on the startup thing along with duke3d.grp etc. Is it supposed to be this way?

That doesn't sound like a Polymer/rendering bug so this probably isn't the right thread to discuss that. But I downloaded the latest Synthesis build as well from 12/29 and I can't replicate the behavior. Everything looks good on my end.

You're right, it wasn't an eduke problem the vacation.grp I was using seemed to be broken, so I made a fresh one and bada-bing. We're in progress

[Jblade]

I just discovered a strange issue involving SIDEBOLT1 - as of snapshot 6248, they appear broken ingame (visually they seem to shrink to half size on the x dimension)

link to snapshot they stopped working properly:

You shouldn't need to make a vacation.grp yourself. EDuke32 will accept VACA15.SSI as taken directly from the original CD release, as well as VACATION.GRP as found in Megaton and the Anthology / Kill-A-Ton 2015 entry on Steam.

Fixed in r6605.

Thanks - much appreciated.

Is there an ability to rename main menu commands yet btw? Specifically, I'm looking to replace the Help menu with something like 'Go to HQ' which'll load one of the AMC base maps up. I'm pretty sure I can already do the loading base thing, it's just the string name I need to change. I'm seeing all sorts of interesting stuff in the synthesis (including the ability to flat out remove it and credits* from the menu) but I'm not sure if what I'm asking is possible yet.

EDIT: Also, I'm not sure this is actually a bug but ambient sounds with a hitag over 32767 don't play anymore; was it always the case that sounds shouldn't of worked over that hitag value, or is it indeed a bug? I'll look into tracking down the snapshot if you think it's not intended behaviour.

No, and this is not on my roadmap.

It has to be r6581. It may indeed be the case that those sounds did not work in the original game. However if there are no side effects I would be willing to re-allow them.

[Jblade]

So I take it that it's not a trivial thing to implement then? That's fair enough, I can disable it for now and when/if the time comes I can add that ability into the menu, cheers.

They worked fine and I didn't see any side effects but that's not to say there might not of been some issues around regardless. I can add some con code that will automatically set the volume back down to the max if it's higher, it's no big deal.

[Jblade]

About the autosave feature btw, Dan brought up a good point in the Hectic Realm thread that at the moment it just keeps piling up and piling up saves. Would it be possible for you to restrict this to a set of like 4 or something, similar to GZdoom?

They should be fixed now. Please let me know if you find any other behaviors broken when hitags and lotags are > 32767 (aka < 0).

The autosaves only "fork" a new file when 1) you use the Save Game menu or F2 (as opposed to F6 quicksaving) to make a new manual save and then the `save` or `savenn` CON commands run, or 2) the `save` or `savenn` CON commands run with a different index than when you previously ran it.

I would recommend fixing your ID numbers.

[Jblade]

Ah cool - I did alternate autosaves since IIRC there was a issue where it would autosave again as soon as you loaded the game and I got told that it was intended behaviour or something like that, it's been a few years since I asked about it.

[Hendricks266]

Try that again, there have been some more changes in this area in the past year. The re-save on load may no longer happen.

[Danukem]

There are two different HUDs which share screen_size == 4

There's the regular one which shows ammo count as a number, and then one notch "above" that there is the special EDuke32 one which show an ammo icon on the right side, etc., and it is still considered size 4 (there is also size 0 with no HUD at all).

My questions is, is it possible in CON to detect which of those two size 4 HUDs is being used? So far I have not found a way. In case it wasn't obvious, I want my display code to do different things depending on the HUD.

[Hendricks266]

Try ud.althud.

[Danukem]

Hendricks266, on 14 February 2018 - 10:58 AM, said:

Ah. I saw that struct and I thought it meant that it would be set when the user has the alt hud as one of the huds that gets cycled through, I didn't realize it was only set when the hud was actually being displayed.

EDIT: If you look at the wiki entry, it clearly says that setting it to 0 disables that hud. Anyway I will go test this now.

[Fox]

Recently I changed it so that the alt hud is displayed when you use the + and - keys. It used to be a second option in the menu, which is more-or-less what the Wiki is referring to.

That makes sense. I updated it just now.
