Julia Nechaevskaya Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) Phew, it took one extra month in planned two months development cycle, but it is worth it. Doom now have optionally scrolling/flowing liquids on vanilla maps and improved brightmaps. Hexen now have various interpolations, small improvements and tons of texture offset corrections on vanilla maps. Heretic, well, it's fine too. Sorry, I'm not very responsive in incoming feedback sometimes, but this is not the end of the development. Small vacation could be nice, though. Kind greetings and personal thanks to Michael Day (@mikeday) for bits of Hexen interpolation code, Dasperal for keeping co-authoring, and everyone else for the interest! International Doom 5.3 (released: June 12, 2022): Windows: inter-doom-5.3-win32.zip Windows (x64): inter-doom-5.3-win64.zip Note: both versions reuploaded on June 13 with important critical fixes. Changelog: Spoiler Technical improvements Upgraded brightmaps to use colors from game palette to provide better mod compatibility with custom COLORMAPs (thanks Brad Harding and Fabian Greffrath). Additionally, animated brightmaps of light sources. Fixed bug with MIDI music still playing when music volume is set to 0 (by Dasperal). Fixed bug with mouse acceleration slider can exit min/max limit (by Dasperal). Fixed bug with value of libsamplerate_scale being set to 0 due to locale mishap (by Fabian Greffrath).

Upgraded graphical patches coloring to HSV algorithm (thanks Fabian Greffrath and Paul Haeberli). Completely rewritten status bar and messages system for simpler and hopefully faster implementation (thanks Raven Software for general idea and bits of code). Updated SDL library to version 2.0.22. Removed support of legacy config format used in versions before 5.1. If you previously used legacy version firstly update to one of the intermediate versions (by Dasperal).

Julia Nechaevskaya Posted September 16, 2022 Sixth anniversary of the project! This is a new major version, with lots of performance and stability improvements, with fully restored compatibility with vanilla demos (complevels 0-4) and 100% original game mechanics, available in one simple menu item. International Doom 6.0 (released: September 16, 2022) Windows (32-bit): inter-doom-6.0-windows-x86.zip Windows (64-bit): inter-doom-6.0-windows-x64.zip Demo compatibility restored Full compatibility with "vanilla" demos now restored. This includes complevel-standards, recorded under original DOS executables and famous demo-friendly source ports like Crispy Doom, PrBoom+ and DSDA Doom: 0 – Doom v1.2 1 – Doom v1.666 2 – Doom v1.9 3 – Ultimate Doom 4 – Final Doom Demos recorded under Inter-Doom are also playable in respective engines. Optional 100% vanilla game mechanics There are numerous small bug fixes which sometimes affect game mechanics more or less. Some of them are optional, but many are not, and previously was disabled only in -vanilla game mode. Having dozens of micro-switches for all possible fixes was a no-go, so I've added one simple menu item, available in the Gameplay section: «Game Mechanics: Strict vanilla mode». By setting it to «on», all fixes will be disabled for retaining 100% original game mechanics. No changes will be made to the values of "unsafe" gameplay options, they just be shaded to indicate their inactivity. In more simple words: if you prefer accurate gameplay, set this option to «on». If you prefer casual gameplay, then leave this option as «off». Note: while demo playing or recording, all fixes are always disabled for compatibility reasons. New screen renderer: OpenGL ES 2.0 Or blitter, or backend, or scaling api, or whatever you prefer, available in the Rendering menu. In practice, it is faster than usual Direct 3D and may give more FPS in both common usage and -timedemo benchmarking. To make sure is it better for your system, you can try to run -timedemo benchmark with both renderers and see which one is giving more average FPS. Example of benchmarking command: inter-doom.exe -timedemo demo1 However, it has a notable limitation on Windows OS – it's not very friendly with screen capturing software. Full change log (beware, it's huge!): Spoiler Technical improvements Significant performance improvements have been made to level loading time and rendering functions. Slightly optimized memory consumption. Reduced loading time of vanilla levels with "Fix errors on vanilla maps" feature enabled. Port now supports ANIMATED and SWITCHES lumps (thanks Fabian Greffrath). Removed MAXSPECIALCROSS vanilla limit. Added --version command line parameter (by Dasperal). Updated SDL_mixer library to 2.6.1 (by Dasperal). Updated SDL_net library to 2.2.0. Updated libogg and libmodplug libraries to versions bundled with SDL_mixer 2.6.1 (by Dasperal). Updated zlib library to 1.2.12 (by Dasperal). Made -nodehlump command line parameter full alias of -nodeh (by Dasperal). Removed -netdemo command line parameter. Use -solo-net instead (by Dasperal). Added -map alias for -warp command lime parameter and extend their syntax with E<x>M<y> for Doom and MAP<x> for Doom 2 (thanks GreenCake, by Dasperal). Added -lang <lang> command line parameter to force language on startup. Valid values are: en, ru (by Dasperal). Added --help (-h, -help, /?, -?) command line parameter which prints out all available command line parameters and their description. Affected by -lang (by Dasperal). Fixed Windows native MIDI transitions across level changes (thanks ceski-1). Added support for Doom 1 IWADs version 1.0 and 1.1. Added -shorttics command line parameter for playing with low turning resolution to emulate demo recording. Added bash completion and Man pages on Linux (by Dasperal). Binaries on Linux now installed to game instead of bin (by Dasperal). Added component-based install when building from sources (see COMPILING.MD) (by Dasperal). Added -complevel <0-4> command line parameter. Bug fixes Fixed bug when the status bar background was turned into Tutti-Frutti effect. It was causing rare silent crashes as well. Fixed incorrect monster movement speeds provided in Dehacked patches. Notably in REKKR's Jackalope monsters. Fixed possible crash on drawing fuzzy sprites as translucent sprites. Notably in STRAIN's BFG ball explosion with enabled translucency. (thanks Daniil Petrov). Negative health is showing correctly when a player dies by voodoo doll kill. Fixed non-working brown/red color translation. Fixed barely notable weapon shaking while closing automap. Demos Restored full compatibility with Doom 1.2/1.25, 1.6/1.666, 1.9, Ultimate Doom and Final Doom demos (a.k.a. complevels 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4). Spy mode (F12) now showing status bar and messages of chosen player. Demo recording/playback timer now using HH:MM:SS.MS values. Fixed incorrect demo timer value and demo bar length for multiplayer demos (thanks Fabian Greffrath and Roman Fomin). Fixed incorrect length of demo progress bar in emulated 4:3 screen of wide screen mode. Multiplayer Level Time widget will be replaced with Timer if -timer parameter is present. In Deathmatch mode full automap is revealed initially. Added interpolation and fixed incorrect angles for all players. Added support for color translation of "translucent" fuzz effect. Players with partial invisibility are now colored properly. Gameplay Added new option "Game mechanics: strict vanilla mode" for restoring full vanilla game mechanics. Level fixes: kept only small texture fixes and removed all others. Enabled feature now safe for demos and network games. Added an option to display disk icon activity on top of the screen. Dead monsters placed on maps now also can be randomly flipped. The blue and red Wolfenstein background is now shown only in original Doom II upon entering MAP31 and MAP32 respectively. Gameplay Features: removed "Aggressive Lost Souls" features as an obscure and added "Default Skill Level". Visual Further improvements have been made to animated glowing brightmaps (Flaming Barrel, Evil Eye and Floating Skull Rock objects): Animation is now smoother. Objects no longer unlit sometimes while wipe animation of game loading. Safer code. Crushed monsters resurrected by Arch-Vile (a.k.a. "Ghost monsters"). now more translucent and having less color saturation for more "ghostly" effect if "Colored blood and corpses" feature is enabled. Status bar weapon is no longer "shaking" for one frame while bobbing and toggling automap on/off. Improved contrast of CR_GREEN coloring translation table for better matching up of other colors. Status Bar Transparent sign FRAGS will appear in Deathmatch instead of ARMS. Face background representing player color in netgame again. Berserk pack no longer appearing on status bar with a background while active automap. Cheat codes Added BUDDHA cheat code (thanks Roman Fomin). Added KILLEM cheat code, which kills every monster on the level. TNTEM still here and doing the same thing, but it explodes monsters. Reimplemented VERSION cheat code (by Dasperal). Intermission screen Improved text skipping: double pressing of ATTACK/USE button no longer needed once the text is fully printed. Automap Redrawing of map lines while player movement, panning and zooming now interpolated (thanks Roman Fomin). Fixed possible automap lines overflow/disappearing near the edges of huge maps (thanks Andrey Budko). Things drawn by IDDT cheat now have their actual radius. Small afterword Exactly six years ago first version was released. Not very long time comparing to other projects, but quite a long time in terms of real life. A lot of things happened and changed, a lot of experience gained. This all is for good, because it have to be. I honestly don't know what else to say. :) I would like to sincerely thank my colleagues, Leonid Murin (Dasperal), Roman Fomin and Fabian Greffrath for being nearby. Thanks to Kraflab for creating DSDA Archive which I was using as home theater while restoring demo compatibility (BTW, may I have a VIP ticket?). And of course, thanks everyone who find this project useful! 11 Share this post Link to post
blackthorn Posted September 17, 2022 Great stuff! Can we expect the OpenGL renderer to be added to International Heretic and Hexen at some point? 2 Share this post Link to post
Julia Nechaevskaya Posted September 19, 2022 @blackthorn, thanks! Sure, GL ES will be added to next version of Heretic and Hexen, nothing more than extra menu item is needed. I'm also planning to restore demo compatibility and optional vanilla mechanics as well for these games, but this will take a while. For now, H&H are working pretty well for casual single player, but demo compatibility and strict original mechanics are also a Thing, especially if user want them. 1 Share this post Link to post
Julia Nechaevskaya Posted September 24, 2022 Small point release. Have to say, I was too focused on playtesting with strict vanilla mechanics and even haven't noticed that hitstan attacks were broken in non-strict mode. Oh well, now they are fine. International Doom 6.0.1 (released: September 24, 2022) Windows (32-bit): inter-doom-6.0.1-windows-x86.zip Windows (64-bit): inter-doom-6.0.1-windows-x64.zip Changes: Bug fixes Fixed broken hitscan attacks in non-strict gameplay mode (thanks willsmanic). Improvements Fixed false positive on Virustotal for inter-doom.com console wrapper (by Leonid Murin (Dasperal)). Improved brightmap of COMPUTE1 texture (thanks NightFright). Better synchronization code for animated textures and flats (thanks Jeff Doggett and Arsinikk). On Linux, binaries now again installed to "bin" directory. Directory "games" isn't recognized by all distros (by Leonid Murin (Dasperal)). Small improvements of texture alignment on Doom E2M4. 3 Share this post Link to post

blackthorn Posted January 1, 2023 Great stuff! Really glad to have the OpenGL renderer available in Heretic now. I love these ports but for some reason I get weird periodic frame-dropping issues with the D3D renderer that I haven't been able to eliminate no matter what I try (vsync on or off, various levels of framerate capping). No such issues with the OpenGL one though. I know I asked this last release, but will International Hexen get an update soon with the OpenGL renderer in place? 4 Share this post Link to post
Julia Nechaevskaya Posted January 7, 2023 Thanks for kind words! @nickxcom, not sure about exactly DR-specific, but Vanilla Doom smooth weapons definitely worth to check out! @blackthorn, that's odd. What is your CPU, video card and monitor refresh rate? Sure, adding GL ES to Hexen is very simple, all I have to do is to add menu item, upper-level code will do the rest. Ideally, demo sync for Hexen should also be fixed as well, but same to Heretic, this will take much more time. Some good news: I was working on quad rendering resolution. AFAIR, it was suggested to different ports from topic to topic, and I decided to try to implement it, and surprisingly it go up pretty quick. First impressions were like "damn, it's impressive!", visually everything almost same in close distance and more sharp in far. And it still keeps some pixelated appearance, which is most important. But I have to make an important note here: it comes with it's price. Can't say it is slow, no, the problem is different - it's "expensive" in terms of calculations. Imagine, double resolution requires 4x screen rendering (doubled horizontal multiplied by doubled vertical), while quad resolution requires 16x (quad horizontal multiplied by quad vertical). Screenshots probably will not show all the difference, but here they are, in 21:9 aspect ratio: original (320x200), double (640x400), quad (1280x800) 7 Share this post Link to post

I did want to report a sequence break I experimented while playing Deathkings of the dark citadel that I can't seem to replicate in Dsda-Doom and GZDoom.

Here's the message that pops up in both water valves. My bad, sorry. It comes with texture alignment fixes - script executable number accidently gets zeroed out. I've merged fix already, but probably this will require level restart via INIT cheat. Alas, my lack of interest for Hexen doing it's bad thing - non-technical improvements which require real playtesting never tested much. Honestly, I haven't though that quadres will have such interest. 😊 Maybe I should publish a small point-release for all three games? Hexen already have GL ES and quadres, along with some rendering optimizations, but restoring demo sync and 100% vanilla gameplay is a long story which can wait for next release. At the moment it is fine for casual playing only, despite of gameplay improvements aren't massive and mostly stands for bug-fixing only, but waiting another 2-3 month for proper release seems to be too long. But anyways, I would like to spent couple days of testing quadres first, just to be sure that everything is fine. It is fine in fact, engine still able to load and render extreme scenes with thousands segs/visplanes/sprites as well as simple levels like on episode one of Doom I. And of course, play through Hexen DK - turns out, released version have soft-lock on Constable's Gate level. 5 Share this post Link to post

Julia Nechaevskaya Posted January 15, 2023 Quad resolution is here and available for all games! It can be set in «Rendering / Rendering resolution», values are: Low: classic 320x200 Middle: crispy 640x400 High: gluttonous 1280x800 Unfortunately, I was not lucky to make it hot-swappable, so this is yet another feature which require program restart. Not much happened in Doom and Heretic since last releases. Hexen, though, got many technical improvements including OpenGL ES render and assembled fourth weapon widget, but proper demo sync is still pending, it's not the thing that can be done fast, alas.

Jules451 Posted April 13, 2023 (edited) Thank you for your work on this port. Ever since I've first tried it, it's become my go-to port for playing the vanilla Doom WADs along with any other non-GZDoom WAD. Having already tried out a decent amount of ports, I have to say that this is easily my favorite "Vanilla+" port of them all. I especially like the wide amount of customizations available in the options menu, the great implementation of a minimal HUD (kudos for the idea of making a minimal HUD by simply removing the background of the original one!) and Heretic/Hexen support, the latter being the reason why I had been looking for an alternative source port to begin with. If there's some minor advice I could give, I wouldn't mind seeing a way to choose a PWAD from some sort of in-game menu, rather than having to load it from the command-line. Not that I have any problems with the latter, but it would make for a nice addition if it's not too troublesome to implement. Hope you continue to support this! 3 Share this post Link to post
