Game not launching with new updates

[weishen1121]

Hi, I'm getting the following errors:

Script warning, "Wolf3D-TC-3.0-master.pk3:scripts/menus/genericoptionmenu.zs" line 1063: Accessing deprecated function MSTime - deprecated since 4.8.0, Use MSTimeF instead Script warning, "Wolf3D-TC-3.0-master.pk3:scripts/menus/extendedoptionmenu.zs" line 1242: Accessing deprecated function MSTime - deprecated since 4.8.0, Use MSTimeF instead Script error, "Wolf3D-TC-3.0-master.pk3:scripts/eventhandlers/gamehandler.zs" line 166: Unknown function GetEpisodeName

Execution could not continue.

Last time something like this happened, updating to a recent dev release seemed to fix the issue but when I update now, the menu is blurry, hand gripping gun is huge - takes up the whole page, can't select any level except level 1 and other small weird bugs keep happening.

The last Wolf3D-TC-3.0 version I had working was from 10-26 so it's been about 2 months and I'm sure a lot of great updates so I'd really like to get this working if possible but for now, I have restored my backups and using that with GZdoom version 4.8.9999.

Could someone please recommend which version of GZdoom to use with the most recent Wolf3D-TC-3.0 update? or maybe upload their version so I can try? I've tried all of the ones from here: https://devbuilds.drdteam.org/gzdoom/ but they have weird bugs going on as mentioned above.

Use the latest release version of GZDoom from the download website. It's version 4.10 right now - that's what I'm testing on, anticipating a release in the next week or so.

The MSTime function deprecation that you are getting was reverted on 9 October, so I'm not sure how old your dev build is.

If you are still getting weird bugs, make sure you don't have any other mods loaded or auto-loaded. There was also a change that requires you to put the GAMEMAPS files from your Wolf3D and Spear of Destiny installations into the same folder as the mod in order to be able to play those maps.

Thanks for the quick update!

Putting the gamemaps files in main directory seem to have fixed the issue of levels. I renamed SOD 2 and 3 to .SD2 and .SD3 since they were all .SOD and everything seems perfect now.

Also seems like 'nashgore.pk3' does not work anymore. This was a mod for more blood splatter.

I fixed the blurriness by changing Hardware Accelerated to Doom Software Renderer which was weird since Hardware Accelerated was what I used before but the scaling size doesn't seem to save after a restart. I went into Choose Resolution Preset, selected 4K, hit the "apply changes (fullscreen)" which was good but when I restarted, it was back to 320x200. I also tried the 'save current settings' but that didn't seem to do anything.

One last thing, would it be possible to skip the 'thanks for playing' screen when exiting the game?

I thought I had some of these settings fixed with my gzdoom_portable.ini file but I think the new versions of gzdoom might have changed a few things... The gzdoom_portable.ini file does not work anymore, the gzdoom.ini file is now located in Documents/My Games/GZDoom folder, fixed most of my problems. Sorry for all the questions!

Only 1 issue, which probably just can't get fixed due to new GZdoom version update but thought I'd ask in hopes of maybe something else as it still works if I use my Wolf3D-TC-3.0-master.pk3 file I had backed up from 10/26 - Removing the 'Better_Weapons_textures.pk3' mod fixed the big hand gripping bug that would take up the whole screen but would there be anyway to get this working again? I uploaded it here if it helps - https://easyupload.io/bsqaf7

Also here is the Wolf3D-TC-3.0-master.pk3 file I had backed up from 10/26 that works with the Better_Weapons_textures.pk3 even with GZdoom 4.10. https://easyupload.io/cxyziu

OK, just added some logic in 90698964ec511b2cc7bd19401b4a123c55135abf so that only 64x64 (or smaller) square textures get the weapon scaling applied; all others are displayed as normal. This means that the Better Weapon Textures sprites show properly, though their Y offsets are wrong now after I changed the mod's weapon offset handling a while ago.

Dude you are so awesome. Everything works perfectly now. Thank you so much for all your hard work!

Oh man I'm so sorry, I messed things up.

I just realized there is a newer version of Better Weapon Textures posted in the Issues tab and the one I uploaded earlier in this thread was a really old version. With the new version of Better Weapon Textures, the gun is hidden behind the bottom bar so only the very tip of the gun is shown - here is a picture of what I mean: https://i.imgur.com/f8PUwQu.png With the old version, I noticed the Y offset was a little off, but it was still pretty good - here is a picture of what it looked like - https://i.imgur.com/boWd48D.png

I think this has something to do with the newly added logic in 9069896 that you posted after I provided you with the old version of Better Weapon Textures. I'm so sorry!

Here is the link to the newest version from ~3 weeks ago that I just downloaded: https://github.com/AFADoomer/Wolf3D-TC-3.0/issues/7#issuecomment-1339406964

Would there be anyway to manually adjust the Y offset somewhere in an ini file or something? EDIT: I found that editing the Y values in Textures.txt in Better Weapon Textures pk3 works but is there a console command for getting flame thrower and rocket launcher? Tab-I only gives me the machine gun and chain gun but I'd like to fix the Y cords for flame thrower and rocket launcher too

Also would it be possible to change the text size without changing the hud scaling when pressing using auomap: https://i.imgur.com/RnjYXXf.png

The 'give everything' console command will give you the extra weapons (plus backpack).

I posted in #7 to ask that they re-update their pack after I changed weapon scaling again.

[AFADoomer]

The 'con_scaletext' Cvar ("Scale text in high res" in the Message Options menu) is used to calculate the text scale.

EDIT: Sorry, old menu location. It's "Messages" in HUD Options/Scaling Options under Full Options Menu now.

Ah perfect, thanks so much!
