Zandronum 3.0-alpha-160131-2023

Time for a new 3.0 beta release! This mostly contains fixes, many of them backported from ZDoom. Furthermore, the internal server browser is back and at least somewhat useful now ;) since it will automatically load the wads the server is using (if the wads are at a place where the client can find them). 3.0 is also using the ZDoom jumping physics that ZDoom introduced in SVN revision 2970 (edited, previously this wrongly said 2790). In case you need the old jumping, e.g. for jumpmaze, "compat_skulltagjumping 1" should bring them back.

Happy testing!

Here is the full Mercurial changelog:

Code: Select all

changeset:   9421:874dfa4eb6e5
user:        Torr Samaho
Recreated the internal server browser with ZDoom's new menu code. The browser now automatically loads the wads of the selected server when joining. For this, all wads need to be in a place where they can be found with the '-file' command line option. In the browser menu, the left and right keys allow to scroll through the list of filtered servers.

That's great we are getting closer to the 3.0.

Was the amount of alpha versions decided a while ago or you are making a new one when you think that the amount of new changes is big enought to launch it?

I'm trying to find this in the converted ZDoom git repository, and I'm not seeing this exact revision.

The latter. We don't have a set amount of alpha or beta builds.

The SVN version is here. With the log message it should be easy to find the corresponding commit in the git repo. Based on unknownna's feedback, I noticed though that this is still missing. So I'll have to further refine that compat flag. A new experimental Windows binary can be found here.

You made a typo in the OP. You put r2790 not r2970

Thanks for the hint! I'll corrected that in the OP, but also need to correct that in the history file.

Painkiller and Britsteel have been updated to this alpha version now.

I'll leave the Teamspeak stuff to DevilHunter.

Fantastic! Thanks! But once again the Mac app bundle is missing the zandronum.pk3 from inside the app bundle. I had to get it from the windows download

I really hope you did it right.. The last time I looked, there was a mess of folders everywhere. Also I might get on sometime later to do teamspeak. Since there are 5 on right now... Probley be tonight.

I've seen the mess of folders before. I just searched for where the old 3.0 binary was then replaced it. Simple as that.

Zandronum.pk3 is missing from the Mac OS X download. Copying from a previous version works offline for the time being, but I'm unable to join any servers running this alpha.


Well, the only server currently running the build, at least.

Guess I'll make a ticket for this, but how does something so important disappear anyhow?

For some weird reason, if I have a weapon shooting projectiles with Damage (50) meaning that projectile always does 50 damage (tested in Za 2.1.2), it does only half of the damage in alpha, ie. 25 damage always

First of all, latest alpha is here, but also, if this happens also with that alpha, you should open a bug report at the tracker with an example wad showing your problem.
