Development versions (2.11)

"Added r_fboScaling cvar which allows to change Render scale filtering to nearest."

It works really well, performance on par with setting the equivalent resolution in the same scene (1280x120 vs 2560x1440 with 0.5 scaling and nearest filtering) without needing to force the integer upscaling in the drivers (sharper image than bilinear/bicubic for who prefers the blocky look)

Task is not so much to see what no one has yet seen but to think what nobody has yet thought about that which everybody see. - E.S.

Yes, @nbohr1more has them too.

My libjpeg-dev version is the latest available, 8c-2ubuntu8.

TDM does not use system libraries so your version should not matter.

I did not have this problem in dev16481-9881.

That's very strange: the changes in libjpeg first appeared in dev16481-9881, so the same problem should happen on that build too.

I'm now getting errors looking like this when I try to save a game:

WARNING:LibJPEG: JPEG parameter struct mismatch: library thinks size is 584, caller expects 568
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The save game itself gets written and loads without issue, but it has no preview thumbnail.

Fixed libjpeg in trunk.

You might want to change r_screenshot_format to avoid using jpeg for savegame screenshots.
Although it won't help you if someone uses jpeg file in texture or as SEED map.

Hmmmm.  Just switched to the latest beta dev16485-9903 (from the previous one, dev16481-9881 ) and restarted the mission I was playing (Iris ... what an amazing mission, very happy to start from the top again, even though I'm only halfway through!), first thing I do is create a save game ... and bang! down it goes.

Nothing in the console log:

Changed location from '' to 'location_home'.
Switching to EFX 'location_home' (#15)
The ambient 'snd_home' (solitude_loop_z) for location 'location_home' is now playing.
The ambient 'snd_home' (solitude_loop_z) for location 'location_home' is now playing.
WARNING:LibJPEG: JPEG parameter struct mismatch: library thinks size is 584, caller expects 568
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

There was a very long pause before it crashed.

Will try again ... well, that was interesting, looks as if the saved game was good.  However, played for a little, hit F4 and ... hangs and crashes again, messages as before.  That's a shame.

Ah!  Looks like the conversation above covers this very issue.  Will go back to the previous beta for now.

Edit: Yes, can confirm that -9881 works and -9903 crashes when saving the game.

Is the latest version (2.10) backwards compatible with older missions?

If it wasn't I imagine panic would ensue, as this would be equivalent to starting from scratch and most FM's would be lost forever only playable on archived versions of TDM.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
