Memento Mori Map20 BFG impossible to get #572

Hi, Brad! How you doing? I'm replaying Memento Mori right now, and in map20 you get the first chace to get the BFG. But i can't seem to obtain it as i do in the past when i first played it. I obtained it like this speedrunner made in this video, back then, but its impossible to get it in Doom Retro as far as i tried, take a look at it around 04:00 min: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZfH-0QFuLA?t=04m07s

I got there in prboom+ and I can't do the straferun grab either :D

P41R47 commented 4 years ago

its pretty difficult to grab it, i remember playing it a long time ago, in vanilla doom, and i had to try to grab it for like 20 min. Its a tricky approach as you need to have full straferunning speed and grab it at the edge of the corner of the pedestal, that way, the player sprite gets a little into the pedestal while the BFG sprite is at the limit to grab it. More easy to say than done, but when you already do it one time, its get easier to do. I just tried it in PrBoom+ and i grab it pretty easily. But no motter how long i try it in Doom Retro i can't grab it.

I think I may have made a change at some point that affected straferunning. I'll look into it. Thanks! (BTW I'll probably release the new build soonish.)

Oh, thats good. Brad. As for now, i don't find any kind of big problem. Just the little things that i pointed in the past days. So a new release will come in handy! As for the REKKERSA.wad if it works as an IWAD, i answered you already and the other problems i found in the last days where already commited or looking into them. So far, this looks good. I would like to look into how the old MAPINFO lump works, what can be done and what not. Do you know if the old mapinfo code is still in the zdoom wiki?

Here's the info in ZDoom's wiki. And here is some incomplete info on what DR currently supports.

Mmm so no cluster definition yet, right? That would explain why MarsWar old mapinfo partially works and some others entries don't work at all.
