**New Features and Improvements**
|
||||
* Implemented support for native MIDI output on all major platforms (WinMM on Windows, ALSA on Linux, Core MIDI on macOS):
|
||||
- As a result, Woof! can now output to any software or hardware device that uses a MIDI port and supports General MIDI. [Nuked-SC55](https://github.com/nukeykt/Nuked-SC55/) is recommended for accurate Roland SC-55 emulation.
|
||||
- Features previously exclusive to Windows are now available on all platforms. This includes `midi_complevel`, `midi_reset_type`, full EMIDI support, loop points (Final Fantasy, RPG Maker), and more.
|
||||
- Automatic reset delay for better compatibility with Roland and Yamaha hardware. See `midi_reset_delay` config option.
|
||||
- Capital tone fallback to fix songs with invalid instruments. Emulates the behavior of early SC-55 models. See `midi_ctf` config option.
|
||||
- Smoother switching between MIDI songs.
|
||||
* Context-related sound pitch shifting.
|
||||
* Independent keyboard/mouse controls in menus. Mouse movement does not affect keyboard cursor. Various minor improvements.
|
||||
* Ability to set maximum resolution -- see `max_video_width` and `max_video_height` in config.
|
||||
* Added `change_display_resolution` config option, which will only work if exclusive fullscreen mode is enabled and the maximum resolution is set. For CRT monitors users.
|
||||
* Better support for `-1`, `-2` and `-3` command-line parameters.
|
||||
* Added `all-all`, `doom-all`, `doom1-all` and `doom2-all` autoload folders.
|
||||
* Allowed autoloading in shareware mode.
|
||||
* Unified Vanilla Doom and Boom HUD widgets, which are now configurable -- see `woofhud.lmp` in the `all-all` autoload folder.
|
||||
* Added a parser for `Obituary_Deh_Actor` DEHACKED strings (thanks to @SirBofu).
|
||||
* Save files now use UMAPINFO labels instead of map markers.
|
||||
* Moved secret message higher, and prevented it from disabling the crosshair.
|
||||
* Added `snd_limiter` config key to toggle the sound limiter.
|
||||
* Restored "Resampler" option in the "General: Audio" menu.
|
||||
* The order in which automap lines are drawn has been changed to improve visual consistency.
|
||||
|
||||
* Mod Support:
|
||||
- ID24 features:
|
||||
- `SBARDEF`, with additional widescreen layout and widgets.
|
||||
- `SKYDEFS`.
|
||||
- `UMAPINFO` intermission extensions.
|
||||
- `extras.wad`, which will be autoloaded if found.
|
||||
- Added support for `TRAKINFO` (remixed soundtrack from "Doom + Doom II").
|
||||
- Added support for PNG graphics, textures, flats, and sprites, which are automatically converted to palettized Doom graphics. 32-bit PNGs are converted to 8-bit with color degradation (not recommended).
|
||||
- Added resource directories and partial support for PK3 archives.
|
||||
- Added `VX_START`/`VX_END` namespace for voxels.
|
||||
|
||||
* Video:
|
||||
- Added 32:9 aspect ratio support for ultrawide monitors.
|
||||
- Draw sprites overlapping into visible sectors: enhancement to stop things from disappearing due to "anchor" sector not being in line of sight (thanks to @SirBofu).
|
||||
- Limited max distance for sprites to 8192 map units, as before (improves performance in `comatose.wad`).
|
||||
- Improved FPS limiter (thanks to @gendlin).
|
||||
|
||||
* Sound:
|
||||
- Added 4-band equalizer for sound effects.

||||
|
||||
* Music:
|
||||
- Added auto gain (loudness normalization) menu option for music, which applies to sampled music (MP3/OGG/XM/etc.), FluidSynth, and OPL3.
|
||||
- Added support for multiple OPL3 chips, and made various improvements (thanks to @jpernst).
|
||||
- Changed native MIDI music volume curve to linear.
|
||||
- Added FluidSynth and OPL3 menu items.

||||
- Added quickstart cache option (from DSDA-Doom): see `quickstart_cache_tics` in `woof.cfg`.
|
||||
- Added a "Weapon Carousel" to visualize switching weapons using the mouse wheel or "Next"/"Prev" buttons (thanks to @JNechaevsky for the graphics).
|
||||
- Added "Vanilla Weapon Cycle" option.
|
||||
- Added "Last" weapon key binding.
|
||||
- Added support for SSG key binding when using vanilla compatibility level.
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

||||

|
||||
- Added gyro support.
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|

* Quality of Life:
|
||||

|
||||
