I dont know it, maybe...

[Mr. Death]

How do I enable ALL of the different skyboxes from BloodCM?

Creating the "texture.def" file with the instructions M210 posted a few pages back in this thread only enables the overcast skybox (from the first level), but the night-time/hell skyboxes don't work.

Thanks to M210/Anyone that can help

The new MIDI synth option it's interesting and could be further enhanced, it is possible add a feature that allow to use custom .sf2 soundfonts?

Sound fonts should be handled at a system level rather than by BloodGDX...

You don't have to create anything, the "texture.def" file you need is in the "addition" folder along with the skybox files in the current release.

Worked like a charm, Thanks Zaxx

Any chance for the Cryptic Passage's HD skybox?

I have missing textures in CP, including the sky. How did you get those working?

[Phredreeke]

You have to rename CPART07.AR_ and CPART15.AR_ to TILES007.ART and TILES015.ART. I created a separate directory for Cryptic Passage for that reason.

Im not an artist, therefore I can't help you but maybe someone can in future

[Fantinaikos]

Hoping the stupid controversy did not diminish the effort of who working on it.

Any new progress on major mod support and cutscene sounds?

BTW those glitches must be just an NVIDIA rendering thing, i've an Intel and they not appear.

That's great! Can't wait to see this in the game!

Oh, thanks, it's working now.

What controversy? We were just reporting a widespread new issue on NVIDIA hardware. NV has a 70% market share meaning chances are most users of BloodGDX will use an NV card, it's important to get to the bottom of these things.

And I think it's important to note that reporting an issue is not an attack against the project in any shape or form + bugs like this appearing are expected at this stage of development.

Not THAT controversy. I was talking about the nonsensical flame war on hires contents.

Oh, I missed that one. I've yet to see any high res texture project that I like for any classic 2.5D FPS so a Blood HRP does not interest me.

Now this is pretty cool.
I really wanna see more screenshots of this, please? =)

I haven't such textures more, I got it from eduke32 hrp

[Phredreeke]

Using only what is already in the game's files. (I have no idea why they didn't use this instead opting to just repeat the same 64x256 over and over)



and here's an attempt at a high res version



Edit: Actually it probably needs more space to the sides of the moon to avoid it repeating too early.

[Tiddalick]

Looks like I had the same idea as Phredreeke...

I havn't attempted to do much with the original files, except extend the vertical size to 512px.
I have made a skybox with the file, though the moon shifted slightly in the sky from where where it is in DOS, its further to the right (skybox starts in slightly different viewing direction?)

Add these images to the "skyboxes" directory (where the other images are)
SkyBoxFilesforCP
Make sure to name them correctly (see description under each image)
Also, add the following text to the texture.def file.

skybox {
tile 4037 pal 0
top "skyboxes/4037_UP.png"
down "skyboxes/4037_DN.png"
front "skyboxes/4037_BK.png"
right "skyboxes/4037_RT.png"
back "skyboxes/4037_FR.png"
left "skyboxes/4037_LF.png"
}

Awesome! Thanks, guys!

3. Deleted InsertPlayer again
4. Some synthetic crashes fix
5. Added hires skybox for Cryptic Passage

I'm planning start working on md2/md3 models now

Awsome stuff as always!

What does highres sprites fix do?
And isnt it a higher priority to make voxel renderer faster?

Hires sprites was cutoff

I need to learn strange build voxel loader at first, because without optimization with 50k polygons some voxels wont drawing. Btw, can someone help me to compile GZdoom from source code? I wasted 4 hour for trying, but still can't to compile it.... This is the main reason not to love c++

Well, I think M210 would rather get more features (ogg music playback? ) in the game rather than spend time optimising especially when it's running adequately fast for him already.

Are you on Linux or Windows?
ZDoom Wiki: Compile on Linux
ZDoom Wiki: Compile on Windows

The Windows one is a little bit outdated (as it is for ZDoom and not GZDoom specifically), but shouldn't have changed much. You should use Visual C++ and CMake if you are on Windows.

[m210®]

I tried compile GZDoom on Windows from CMake...Wiki didn't help me...I just tired try to fix errors in compilation...I finished f/--ck myself after 4 hours
I think I wasted maybe 2 hours for a wait when compiler show the next error code while compiling

small clarification:
the next and next and next for(int i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) { and next } error code

Do you know what error messages you were getting? I am not a programmer myself, but with the help of the Wiki I was able to compile GZDoom on my own.
What you can ignore on the Wiki is the FMOD bit, as FMOD has been removed from the newest GZDoom versions.
There are pre-built versions available, but I am sure you have your reasons why you want to compile it on your own.
