Is there a way to fix the color filter to make it like the original game? (the pic at the start of e1m1 change yellow>orange by exemple)

That requires writing a new renderer. And if it has proper colours, for me it's gonna be a perfect port. Althought in GDX sounds feel a bit muffed for me where only Caleb sound correct.

Not so long time ago, I found an effect, which I never seen in game. I also ported this effect in BloodGDX today
Someone seen this effect? Maybe in multiplayer?
It's like a electrons moving in atom

Maybe it was planned to be used for teleportation. Or maybe when Caleb transformed to the Beast. I could also see it being used back when the life leech used to regenerate your health. Or even when the voodoo doll is hurting the player like in Blood 2. Very intriguing!

How did you found it?

Also sprites that have floor-alignment will not replace with voxels made of them.I guess it was never planned to have voxels of sprites used that way but it would be nice if they worked.

I will not do this

Респект, Саня, за то, что не забросил проект!

[Tiddalick]

Thanks for the new version!!

A bug I mentioned earlier which is still present:
When your in Map mode and turn off Follow (so just free movement around the map). The strafe left, strafe right keys don't move the map, only the forward and backward keys do.
This means you have to rotate the mouse in order to explore other sections of the map.

[m210®]

Ah, yep, I forgot about it

[TheXna]

Watcha working on M210?

[m210®]

I rewrote resource loader and now I can load user RRF files. I tried to load BPF mod and it's working fine, but at first you need to extract unknown game.bpf archive (in this archive placed ini file and arts files)

Also bloodgdx support zip files now as resource holder such as arts, maps files...but for load seq or qav files is need ID information. You can put ID information in zip as comment for files, but I don't know archivator which can place comments for each file (but zip has this feature) Also I planning to use global zip comment as INI information. It will be better then RFF archive, which needs ini-file for loading addon

M210, have you considered implementing an audio resampling option in the future? The resampler in BloodCM was excellent, delivering some really crisp audio- by comparison, some of the BloodGDX sound effects are really muffled.

The issue is that M210 is not using the original Blood audio mixing library. Instead, he's using OpenAL. EDuke32 uses the original Apogee Sound System, which is why BloodCM's audio is accurate to Blood's. The sound effects are muffled in BloodGDX because OpenAL's resampling is "better" by a specific mathematical definition, which unfortunately is inaccurate to the original game, and does not sound as good perceptually when dealing with extremely low-frequency audio such as BUILD game sound effects. It's the same problem that World Tour's audio had.

I hope it could be fixed, i like to play with some options in bloodgdx like the no-autoaim for the fun (to have an other way to play the game), but too bad for the audio and the colors problem....
I'm ok with it but i hope it's possible to make it more like the original game at this point!

IOk so that is why it sounds different.

Thanks for clearing this up.

Been wondering about this a long time now.

[SPILL]

M210, is it possible to add a feature that allows us to launch maps in coop, bloodbath, and teams? I know multiplayer won't be working soon but this option would be great for level editors who want to test the coop enemy, item, and weapon spawns. Same goes for capture the flag routes and so on. Even if this feature is temporary that would be great!

[Phredreeke]

You can launch the game's multiplayer maps by writing MARIO 5 X while in the game (or MARIO 2 X for the Cryptic Passage maps)

[Newken]

mario 5 1 - The Stronghold
mario 5 2 - Winter Wonderland
mario 5 3 - Bodies
mario 5 4 - The Tower
mario 5 5 - Click!
mario 5 6 - Twin Fortress
mario 5 7 - Midgard
mario 5 8 - Fun with Heads
mario 5 9 - Monolith Building 11
mario 5 10 - Power!
mario 5 11 - Area 15

mario 2 1 - Crypt of Despair
mario 2 2 - Pits of Blood
mario 2 3 - Unholy Cathedral
mario 2 4 - Deadly Inspirations

[SPILL]

You misunderstood my point. Please re-read

[SPILL]

I've been playing Blood for 18 years. Trust me I know how to launch the bloodbath levels. I'm talking about launching the multiplayer MODES without actually having multiplayer yet. I need to test my singleplayer map in all modes to make sure weapon, item, and enemy placement is smooth. This is possible using Meltdown and Dosbox but it would be great if GDX allowed you to launch a map in different modes.

[Newken]

There was an incomplete co-op mode but AFAIR it has been disabled.

I think I can, but I don't know, will thoose features working correctly, because I did't reversed multiplayer features.

Btw, I made user RFF loading with INI file inside today. Now you can load addons/mods with only one RFF file with art/ini/map and all requeres files inside.
GRP and ZIP packeges also supported now.

I need to make RFS scripts support now.

[m210®]

Hi. I made a 0.786 version Check it

1. Menu tweak
2. Background renderer tweak
3. Background texture clamp fix
4. New resource loader for rff support
5. User RFF addons/mods support
6. RFS support for mods
7. Autoload folder for load voxels, music (doesn't working with hires textures yet)
8. Folow mode strafe keys working now
9. Md3 empty frame load fix
10. Zombie roam voice fix
11. Trilinear filter settings fix
12. Autoload CD music for mods: "Blood\[ModName]\cdtrack1-cdtrackXX.ogg
13. Decrease resolution console crash fix
14. Better exception handler
15. Skyboxes resources was deleted, added some examples in bloodgdx.def



Skyboxes resources I deleted, because my archive is outdated and new archive too big.
Maybe in future I will make I new download thread with hires and mods resources

[m210®]

Btw, new version of BloodGDX support user zip archives. You can pack to zip archive simply mods like LOI or DW
You can try this LOI1.zip. Create a new folder (LOI) in Blood folder, place zip flie in LOI folder and launch it in "User content" menu

Good job!

[Dr_Proton]

What are you currently working on M210 and when are going to release the next version?

[m210®]

Well, nothing interests.
I refactored and separated Build and Blood project for making ports of other Build games with actual Build and Polymost fixes.
I already rewrite my Tekwar port to new Build project and I want to prepare a release on the new Build project.

2. Also I already ported Witchaven with my Build project and reverse engereneered Redneck Rampage (I alreday found all of Duke's parts of code) and for continue RE I will start new project with new Build.
3. I wasted some time for learning networks

About BloodGdx, I did nothing after latest release, but at near future I planning to fix some bugs, and complete user packages loader and loader hrp from zip archive.
