DukeGDX: With 20th Anniversary World Tour and "Legacy Duke Talk" on, the voice clip at Hollywood Holocaust (E1M1) still plays the re-recorded line from the 20th Anniversary World Tour Edition rather than the original voice clip.

I'm someone who is fairly anal about mouse aim quality in games and I believe you did a good job. It feels responsive and is certainly playable. However, I noticed that there is a problem. When you move the mouse very fast, the mouse input does not register. For example, when you try to quickly turn around and shoot something behind you.

Two ways to reproduce this issue:
1. Move the mouse very fast in one direction. For example, try to do a 180 degree turn very fast.
2. Move the mouse very fast left and right repeatedly.

The result will be much slower camera movement than expected. It could even result in almost no camera movement after your mouse hits a certain speed. This is known by mouse look complainers(such as myself) as negative mouse acceleration. For comparison sake, you can try the same thing on games such as CSGO or even EDuke32.

So, after long time I decided to try latest version of BuildGDX. And no matter which game I run in it, I just cant get to run Classic renderer properly in fullscreen. I get black screen with only sound running. Windowed mode works fine with it, but then I get ridiculously low framerate, going around 20-15 fps. Where is problem? Polymost works alright for me. BTW I tried version with packed JRE and also without it and still no difference.

My laptop specs:
OS: Windows 7 64 bit SP1
CPU: AMD A-8-7410
GPU: Radeon R5 M330
RAM: 8GB

Hopefully, I wont get reply like "Get stronger computer"

[Szczwanylisek]

I have the same issues on my retro pc with win xp, but screen is white. Its something with Java

[filipetolhuizen]

WangGDX: There's a triangle on the lower right corner of the screen that keeps trailing on-screen sprites/weapon bobbin' at some points, just like when activating noclip cheat and going out of the map.
All GDX games: A tall thin line fickers at some points.
Using Polymost rendering. Haven't tried software mode.

Hello, after BuildGDX v1.12 (13.06.2020) uptade, the powerslave/exhumed wont launch. ¿can i download previus release 1.11?.

"there was a problem initialising the build engine: Couldn´t read file null".

[Tekedon]

Love the new release! But the HUD seems a little tiny bit stretched. Or it might just be me.

[Jim]

The hud is indeed streched. And the last warrior crashes after the intro plays. It seems there is a problem of loading maps after intro plays

[fgsfds]

SW crash was fixed, download 1.13 again.

[Tekedon]

In 1.13 you can't change weapons with mousewheel while holding the voodoo-doll and running. Works if you use "vanilla mode". So probably something to do with the fixed voodoo animation.

How do I make the included demos run in the main menu of Blood while using BuildGDX? They are currently named blood000.dem, blood001.dem, blood002.dem and blood003.dem and is within the BuildGDX folder a made for Blood (I made a copy of BuildGDX for each build-engine game). I tried renaming the *.dem files to demo001 and so on, but whatever I do the console says there's 0 demos in loop.

Be sure, that you're using dem files from version 1.21. The version should be "277"

[Boomstick]

Not sure if it has been mentioned or not

But when playing Redneck Rampage 2/Rides Again, When the intro starts up there's no sound playing during it.

[Cash Diver]

I could miss something in BloodGDX options or it's descriptions, but I can't find a way to play with bots. Tried fake multiplayer without monsters, but players didn't attack me, they've just stood on their places. Is this a bug? If it is possible to play BloodGDX with bots, I'm also interested where I can learn appropriate console commands for maps choosing and etc.

[m210®]

Blood don't have bots. I made a MP player spawning for debug/test

I can change map from console by typing "mario X Y"

[Phredreeke]

I think he meant loading external maps

I'm not sure that typing some longest path to a map in the console is better than simple choosing it from menu

Looks like BuildGDX doesn't choose best audio sample rate quality in Blood and you don't even have an option to do it manually.

[Jamesfff]

In playing the Shadow Warrior Central 20th Anniversary addon (SWC20.grp, available at https://www.moddb.co...downloads/swc20) in WangGDX, I have encountered what is likely a showstopper bug in the Heretic level (map 12 / $bath.map in the grp) - the game crashes when you approach the Gold Key Door from any direction, which could prevent you from exiting the level, since the exit is near the yellow key door. (And I also had a crash in SW Land (the secret level [map 22 / $auto.map), when I pulled the switch in front of the window overlooking the ship.)

Sorry I was mistaken. Once I manipulated with sound drivers and resamplers in the game options sound quality became good.
You have to choose resampler "nearest" at "OPENAL1.1 ALSOFT 1.18.1" and it sounds as good as DOS version.
Same also refers to DukeGDX and WangGDX.

Vanilla mode is Off in the options but I still got the infinite burning man bug, is this normal? Actually, I shot two zombies one after the other and they both got bugged! I hate this bug from the original, how do I get rid of it?

Also, which OpenAL version should I choose?

The flameguy bug was never fully fixed, it just should happen less often... at least in theory.

Makes sense, it hasn't happened again. It was a special case then, because I set them on fire at the same time and they both got bugged!

I noticed this while picking up the stuff in E1M4, I ran over the akimbo and the two flare guns and entered the water ... then I noticed I don't actually have the akimbo, it isn't working! After the power-up timed out Caleb lowered the shotgun and raised it again.

Hi, new to the forum and probably not the right place for a first post, but to begin with, BuildGDX is the best source port in the whole world, together with GZDoom for the id Tech 1 classics and Quakespasm for Quake. Thank You for your hard work that allows us boomers to relive the past, except with better gameplay and graphics!

Just one thing bothering me with BuildGDX: the skyboxes with the polymost renderer. They seem to be shifted down on all video modes when you look up and then start again halfway. I downloaded the skybox pack, which fixed the Duke3D, Blood, SW and Powerslave skyboxes, but unfortunately not the Witchaven 1 and 2 ones, which I understand are not possible to fix like the others.

Is there any way to fix the skybox in the Witchavens with the polymer renderer, so they are centered/stretched properly and at least look like they do with the classic renderer? Thanks!

[RetroJaro]

Powerslave just got released on gog. Buildgdx crashes when running it. Yup.. got nothin' else to add. \o/

Hi all, first time poster here. I just finished playing the Alien World Order episode for my first time using BuildGDX 1.14. I encountered a similar problem using Slackware Linux when using the World Tour game directory. I tried BuildGDX versions 1.13, 1.14 and 1.15 and all versions stall when the startup messages reaches "parsing locale". The same directories and files works in Windows 7 and 10.
I was able to play the AWO episode with Duke3D Atomic as user content after zipping the E5 maps, cons, and sound files from WT. This allowed it to work in Linux with BuildGDX 1.14 and lower; however, with 1.15 this method now fails with

I tried adjusting settings in the launcher such as different resolutions, classic renderer, no sound and midi, and switching from Oracle JDK 15 to JRE 8

[warezeater]

m210, the latest BuildGDX (1.15 with JRE) running Blood with Polymost renderer looks like this (Classic renderer is OK):

Spoiler

These artifacts appear already at the launch sequence.

Upd: fixed by deleting old bloodgdx.ini from the %userprofile%\M210Projects\BloodGDX\

Upd: the problem can be reproduced by setting Anisotropy in the renderer settings to anything but none (= 1 in the bloodgdx.ini) and restarting the game.
