Used to be capped at 60 fps, so a frame was a known amount of time, or a reasonable amount of time at it's fastest rendering speed. Now that we're uncapped, it could be muuuuch shorter. Too short. That's my guess.

You will run into problems with worldspawn geometry, since the engines are usually working with single-precision floats. You'll not be able to distinguish anymore from planes that are 0.5 units apart (which sounds ok, but for angled intersections and sealing geometry this might not cut it, literally). (This question really is not so much about the editor, which is working with doubles to store geometry - even though the DR renderer is also operating on single precision floats - this provides a huge performance benefit over doubles).

Had fun playing this on stream last night! It's an old favorite for me, and between Christmas and New Year it seemed like a fitting FM to do just before 2023. If anyone wants to see it here's the Twitch broadcast (expires after a week because Twitch auto-deletes stuff) and I also mirrored it on Youtube because why not. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1692417368

Because no entrants made it this year, all eligible FM authors will be visited by the ghosts of darkmod past, present, and future. The spookiest outcome of all! ( "Ghost of darkmod past" politely asking you to purchase a copy of Doom 3 so he can haunt you... )

Well, that was interesting. I did as suggested, and ran `testmap stealth` without first loading bcd itself ... and got the attached screen: I've had to compress the screenshot in gimp (reduced JPEG quality to 10) to upload it, but it's a pretty truthful representation of what I'm seeing. Here's the corresponding log: ]testmap stealth ---- dmap ---- --- LoadDMapFile --- loading fms/bcd/bcd_stealth.pk4/maps/stealth WARNING:Couldn't load map file: 'fms/bcd/bcd_stealth.pk4/maps/stealth' ------------- Warnings --------------- during running dmap...
