The Makefile hard-codes gcc for linking the binary. This is wrong because
a) it's C++ and
b) there is a CC variable defined above (to the C++ compiler, lol)
This version saw a little bit action on the help screens. Plus,
the WEIRD WEIRD graphics mode of the Apple II ate a lot of memory,
which, if you do it properly, is no longer wasted.

0 A.D. (pronounced "zero-ey-dee") is a free, open-source, historical
Real Time Strategy (RTS) game currently under development by
Wildfire Games, a global group of volunteer game developers. As the
leader of an ancient civilization, you must gather the resources you need
to raise a military force and dominate your enemies.
History is Yours for the Taking
"0 A.D." is a time period that never actually existed: In the usual
calendar, one goes from 1 B.C. to 1 A.D. and skips zero. This reflects
the historical fiction in the game: Who would have won if all the
factions were pitted against each other when each of them was at its
prime?
We intend to portray some of the major civilizations over the millennium
of 500 B.C. to 500 A.D. (Hence the midpoint, zero.) That is an ambitious
prospect, so in the first edition of 0 A.D. we focus on the last five
centuries B.C. Perhaps in future expansion packs, more civilizations will
be added, along with additional gameplay features.
We put a strong emphasis on historical accuracy while developing 0 A.D.
We plan all our units and all our buildings based on reconstructions of
how the units and the buildings might have looked like in the ancient
world. We even name them in the original languages, such as Greek and
Latin. But it's worth remembering that any game should be fun to play,
so, in many cases, we preferred playability over historical accuracy.
0 A.D. is Free of Charge
0 A.D. is completely downloadable at no cost and always will be. No
"freemium" model, no in-game advertising, no catch. This is our iron-clad
guarantee.
Although you might find some people selling copies of 0 A.D. on physical
media, remember, you will always have the option to download 0 A.D.
gratis on the internet, directly from the developers.
0 A.D. is Free as in "Freedom"
0 A.D. is freely licensed software, because we believe everyone should
have access to great games, and that everyone can learn from developing
them. You can redistribute and modify the game as long as you abide by
the GPL. And you can even use parts of the art and sound for your own
projects as long as you abide by CC BY-SA.
0 A.D. is Still Under Development
Work on 0 A.D. began in 2001, first as a mod concept for
Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings. In 2003 development moved to a
standalone game with its own engine, Pyrogenesis. In 2009-2010, the game
was released as free, open-source software and and much of the codebase
was rewritten.
Currently, 0 A.D. is still in alpha phase, which means an early
experimental phase. It is playable, and you can already download and test
the game, but some features are still missing. When will 0 A.D. be
released? It is very hard to predict. Even after we are done implementing
all the features, we will want to conduct extensive beta testing, which
can take a while. Information about release dates will be released at the
appropriate time.

you would like to help.
The latest stable release is: Aleph One 1.2.1
Aleph One 1.2.1
===============
The 1.2.1 release fixes a crashing bug when carnage message MML is used. Otherwise it is identical to the 1.2 release.
Aleph One 1.2
=============
The Aleph One 1.2 release features online leaderboards and game statistics, a streamlined saved-game system, and full multiplayer
support for the original Marathon game. This release also includes a number of other new features and bug fixes.
If you do not use the bundled downloads, we recommend that you update your scenario files. Each game includes a new plugin for the
online leaderboards, and the Marathon scenario includes an important compatibility fix.
Aleph One 1.2 is not network compatible with the previous stable release.
Online features
Aleph One now integrates with the online leaderboards and player stats at lhowon.org. Sign up within Aleph One to send your
Marathon, Marathon 2, and Marathon Infinity game results to lhowon.org, where you can see your overall win percentage, kill totals,
and more.
From the new "Internet" preferences section, you can register your chat name, opt in to player stats, and configure other options
relating to online play.
Saved games
Saving your game no longer stops the action until you type in a name. Each time you use a pattern buffer, a new saved game is
created. The "Continue Saved Game" dialog shows you the in-game location, date, and game time for every save. Use the "Load Other"
button to open a saved game from an earlier version of Aleph One.
Marathon compatibility
* Cooperative play is now supported in the original Marathon scenario
* Net games no longer use incorrect physics models
* Goal checking in repair levels now matches the original game
* Grenade trajectory in low-gravity levels now matches the original game
* Certain terminals and rechargers could be activated when they shouldn't have been. You must use the 1.2 scenario data files to
get this update.
* If you have an existing saved game on an "exploration" level, you may need to re-explore the level before you can exit. We
apologize for the inconvenience.
Lua
* Additions to the Lua API:
- Triggers.projectile_created()
- Game.dead_players_drop_items
- Level.index
- Level.map_checksum
- Line.visible_on_automap
- Polygon.visible_on_automap
* Additions to the Lua HUD API:
- Level.name
- Level.index
- Level.map_checksum
* Custom fields on projectiles, monsters, etc. are cleared when the object is destroyed
* Lua error messages contain more diagnostic info
* Player:find_action_key_target() no longer triggers side effects
Other changes
* New preferences:
- Camera Bobbing (Graphics) — if disabled, the camera and weapon will remain steady, to reduce motion sickness
- Join Pregame Lobby by Default (Internet -> Pregame Lobby) — if checked, when you choose "Join Network Game", Aleph One
automatically presses "Find Internet Game" on the next screen. Hold down the Alt (Option) key to join a local game.
- Use Netscript in Films, Netscript File (Environment) — use these preferences to play back films of games recorded with
netscripts. Solo Lua scripts are no longer loaded during playback of net game films.
* Logging in to the pregame lobby uses HTTPS to protect your password
* The editing cursor in text fields can be moved with the arrow keys or the mouse
* Command history in the Lua/chat console can be accessed with the up and down arrow keys
* Team color selection in the Join dialog is disabled when the game does not support teams
* Plugin API changes:
- Scenario compatibility, to create plugins that load only for specific scenarios
- More combinations of items are allowed within a single plugin
* The Plugins dialog (Preferences > Environment > Plugins) lists the components of each plugin
* Lua HUD support is available by plugin only
* A custom port can be used when gathering net games. The port number can only be changed by editing the XML preferences file.
Crashes fixed
* Maps with invalid light indexes in OpenGL (Shader) renderer
* 3D models lacking texture coordinates
* #STATIC command in terminals (SF #580)
* Joining a net game after a "map not found" film playback error (SF #504)

Platform-specific fixes
* Linux:
- A new configure script now succeeds when optional dependencies are missing. The script also summarizes which features are
enabled. Packagers should review the configure options, which have changed.
- Aleph One builds and runs with more versions of FFmpeg / libav (SF #576, #578, #582)
- Web links no longer cause Aleph One to become unresponsive on some systems
* Mac OS X:

The DESCR borrowed language from the Red Eclipse website at a time when the
Cube engine was still relevant -- but it's misleading nowadays, in fact, the
whole point of Red Eclipse 2.0 is that it uses a different engine.
This is Pangea Software's Cro-Mag Rally updated to run on modern systems.
In Cro-Mag Rally you are a speed-hungry caveman named Brog who races through
the Stone, Bronze, and Iron Ages in primitive vehicles such as the Geode
Cruiser, Bone Buggy, Logmobile, Trojan Horse, and many others. Brog has at
his disposal an arsenal of primitive weaponry ranging from Bone Bombs to
Chinese Bottle Rockets and Heat Seeking Homing Pigeons.
In addition to single-player racing where one player races against the
computer, there are also several different multi-player modes including Tag,
Capture the Flag, and Survival. Up to four players can play on a single
computer in split-screen mode.
This is Pangea Software's Otto Matic updated to run on modern desktop
platforms.
The year is 1957 and a fleet of flying saucers from Planet X have come to
Earth. These saucers are under the control of the evil Brain Aliens who are
abducting helpless human beings to become slaves of The Giant Brain.
You are Otto Matic, the robot who is given the job of saving Earth from the
clutches of The Giant Brain from Planet X. You must rescue as many humans as
you can while defeating the Brain Aliens and all of their evil followers.
Your mission will take you to strange and fantastic alien worlds which are
often treacherous and will require Otto to perform amazing feats.

A fork of the popular GLQuake descendant QuakeSpasm with a focus on high
performance instead of maximum compatibility, with a few extra features
sprinkled on top.
Nanosaur II: Hatchling is a continuation of the original Nanosaur storyline,
only this time you get to fly a pterodactyl who's loaded with hi-tech
weaponry. In addition to the three level adventure mode where you blast
enemy dinos and save eggs, there are also six two-player levels including
racing, capture-the-flag, and battle.
This is a port of the original Mac version of the game to modern operating
systems, made under permission from Pangea Software, Inc.
This is Pangea Software's Nanosaur updated to run on modern systems.
Originally released in 1998 as a Mac-only game, Nanosaur casts a cybernetic
dinosaur from the future who's sent back in time 20 minutes before a giant
asteroid hits the Earth.

variadic to fixed parameters due to architecture differences
Client
General
* Added cl_extrapolationMargin with a default value of 1 and allowed
range 0 to 10 to reduce the client latency due to incorrect serverTime
values caused by automatic adjustments to serverTimeDelta on the
client
* Fixed escape key not sending a char event which avoid closing UI menu
properly
* Fixed console char set scaling when r_scale is used. (Only for vanilla
renderer since it's the only one with r_scale anyway).

------------
New Features and Improvements
- Don't draw the status bar or any other UI in savegame snapshots.
- Add "Walk Under Solid Hanging Bodies" feature from PrBoom+.
- Support face gib animations in the status bar widget as in the 3DO/Jaguar/PSX
ports (graphics lumps need to occupy the STFXDTH0 to STFXDTH9 name space).
- Allow COMP cheat to change complevel in-game (report current complevel when
entered, expecting two-digit new complevel argument).
- Allow the SSG in Doom 1 if the corresponding assets are available.
- Implement SDL-native sound looping for moving walls (removing clicking noise
between sounds).
- Have "Clear Marks" key clear just the last mark in the Automap (by @MrAlaux).
- Limit the number of identical sounds playing at once, based on priority
ordering (based on code from Odamex and DSDA-Doom).
- Make color of health and armor count gray in the status bar and HUD widgets
when invulnerable (by @MrAlaux).
- Add VGA "porch" behaviour emulation from Chocolate Doom (enabled by
vga_porch_flash key in the config file).
- Implement dark automap overlay (by @MrAlaux).
- Support dedicated music (lump names D_E4M1 to D_E4M9) for Episode 4 of
Ultimate Doom. Also, support to select these tracks (and the music tracks
for UMAPINFO maps) by the IDMUS cheat.
- Implement crosshair target lock-on (by @MrAlaux).
- Increase internal maximum horizontal resolution to 1152. This is meant to
add support for non-exactly 21:9 screens, such as 3840x1600 (WQHD+).
- Implement crosshair coloring by target health (by @MrAlaux).
- Windows native MIDI player improvements:
- Support for SysEx messages.
- Correctly reset MIDI devices with SysEx messages. Default is GS mode, can
be changed with the winmm_reset_type config option (by @ceski-1).
- The reset delay is configurable using the winmm_reset_delay config
parameter. Useful for vintage MIDI devices (by @ceski-1).
- Implement a "capital tone fallback" emulation that allows MS GS Wavetable
Synth, Roland SCVA, Roland SC-55mkII and later devices to work in GS mode
without any issues (by @ceski-1).
- Fix looping timing, various optimizations (by @ceski-1).
- Add full support for EMIDI, extensions used in Build engine games
(by @ceski-1).
- Implement Final Fantasy and RPG Maker loop points (by @ceski-1).
- No need to restart the program to change MIDI player.
- Ability to select Windows MIDI device in the menu.
- Scan the soundfonts folder and show all found .sf2 and .sf3 soundfonts in
the menu.
- OPL emulation output gain. Allows to increase the OPL volume with the
opl_gain config option (default 200%).
- Allow parsing of cosmetic items in the OPTIONS lump for all complevels.
- Enable doubled card and skull key display on status bar by default.
- Gamepad analog controls improvemets:
- The turning/looking speed does not depend on the run key.
- Ability to invert each axis separately.
- Separate sensitivities for movement, turning and looking.
- Possibility to disable the axis (choose "None" in the menu).
- Do not allow simultaneous use of mouse and controller in strict mode when
recording demo (new DSDA rule).
- Unify gamma correction: Both the F11 key and the menu slider cycle through
the same gamma correction tables, with positive integers corresponding to
the Vanilla tables.
Bug Fixes
- Take into account "smooth diminishing lighting" for "level brightness"
feature.
- Set 'fastdemo_timer' to false before warping (by @rrPKrr).
- Fix starting "new game" or "load game" when fast-forwarding a demo.
- Do not switch timer if fastdemo is not enabled.
- Fix midi_player config setting description.
- Fix background drawing on screen size 3 in 21:9 widescreen mode.
- UMAPINFO: Don't show menu for only one episode.
- Fix "Show Demo Progress Bar" being disabled in the menu instead of "Default
Compatibility" if the -complevel command-line parameter was used
(by @MrAlaux).
- Do not allow autoloading in shareware gamemode.
- An IWAD called doom1.wad is now always checked for its content instead of
blindly assuming the shareware IWAD.
- Fix NULL string comparison in DEH parser.
- Fix skull position in the help screen for Doom 2.
- UMAPINFO: Provide a default map progression if neither next nor endpic are
set.
- Add the missing OPUS DLLs to the 32-bit build.
26th June 2022
dopewars-1.6.2 released. This improves Unicode support in the text-mode
client, and adds support for networking on the Haiku operating system.
Updated man page for pkgsrc.
Disabled SVN usage for build.
FEATURES 1.48.12
* Added SDL2 support, as a compile option. This provides video, sound, and
keyboard alterations for the SDL2 library calls.
The source code still supports SDL1. This supports target machines that are
not supported by SDL2. At this point, for some things like MIDI music, we
have not yet found optimal SDL2 solutions.
* Add a control to select music type, with an automatic mode. Add automatic
music type selection and playing. This works better with SDL1 than SDL2.
SDL2 will always use Fluidsynth for MIDI. It even builds a copy of
Fluidsynth into SDL2.
* Added controls to adjust monster health, health pickup, armor pickup, and
ammo pickup. This allows adjusting play of an overly difficult map such as
one with multiple cyberdemons, such as when you have only three players on
your coop team and one is a newbie, or just adjusting a map weak in ammo.
The user can also increase difficulty when feeling cocky.
BUG FIXES 1.48.12
* Mingw32 does not have strcasestr. Had to write one for Mingw32 and Watcom.
* Fixed a segfault in biowar.wad Map08 with OpenGL. It would segfault when a
texture being drawn in cache, had one patch extending lower than the
texture bottom. The cache write now tests against the cache limits, and not
the source.
* Fixed X11 musserver quitting whenever trying any device other than TiMidity.
Made the FluidSynth MIDI detection work. Included the DEBUG options.
Fixed a HAVE_ZLIB test that would error when compiling for X11.
* Fixed where Player picks up clip when already has full ammo. A bug was
introduced in patch w105_22_playermsg, svn 1225. This resulted in the clip
being used up, even when the player already has max ammo.
* Rewrote the flat animation, to load all flats of an animation. A long time
ago the flats were optimized by only loading the flats that appeared in the
level map. This is incompatible with flat animation, as the animation
requires flats that may not have appeared otherwise. This results in the
animation not working for some flats that should be animated (doom2 map17).
Updates the flat animation again when levelflats has moved during the
update. Removed the old animation code that checked all flats in the wad.
* Fix the existing MIDI, MP3, and OGG music playing. Fix MP3 music playing,
so that it does not try to play it as MUS. Detect the music type upon
replay too.
* VISPLANE_DYNAMIC_COVER. Replaced arrays of [MAXVIDWIDTH] in visplane with
dynamically allocated arrays of the current video width. This reduces each
visplane from 6464 bytes to 3268 bytes. This will allow MAXVIDWIDTH to be
increased, to allow larger screen sizes, without affecting the memory usage
for everybody.
* Transition to new software renderer, to fix sprites that are drawn in
conflict with 3d floors.
* Removed drawnodes code. Sprites could not be sorted into the drawnodes to
satify all the conflicts that occur. Instead of trying to save all the
sprite conflicts in one sprite structure (like a drawnode), the sprite is
split and clipped until all parts of it have been drawn (or masked).
* Replaced openings code (from PrBoom) with pool16 code, which does not have
to adjust existing pointers when expanding the pool.
* Fix to sprite draw, so that flipped sprites drawing is independent of the
sprite x1 position. This fixes draw errors of some flipped sprites.
* Fixed the OpenGL dynamic lights, where wall textures would distort when a
fireball or rocket would pass by. This affected walls under a 3d floor,
when it experienced a dynamic light.
* Fixed a zip seek error that only affected some zip files. Opening a zip
archive when there already was a zip file open, required that the zip file
be closed, or its file position will be different than our recorded
position. This fixes bug when loading cyberarena3.zip.
* Protect against NULL line ptr in some light functions. This mitigates a
segfault in cyberarena3.zip, that was not reproducible.
* Fixed compile errors in dynamic load of zlib, and libzip. Detect version
of libzip from header file. Remove version of libzip from make_options.
* Add SDL_DIR to the compile make_options, because compile on win/mingw32
cannot reliabily find SDL/include otherwise, and it is better than having
end users editing the Makefile. SDL installs with sdl-config are not
affected, and most users do not need to specify it.
* Fixed the new SDL sound code to compile with SDL Mixer 1.2.8, SDL Mixer
1.2.10, SDL Mixer 1.2.12, and SDL2 Mixer. This is detected at compile.
The SDL Mixer 1.2.8 does NOT have MIX_INIT, but the SDL Mixer 1.2.10 does,
and SDL2 does too. The MIX_INIT provides some device detection and
reporting to the user what was found.
* Still supports compiling for SDL Mixer older than 1.2.8, but those do not
have RWOPS, and thus music playing with that Mixer will then use the
hard-drive. This is detected and determined at compile-time, and running
with a newer SDL Mixer will not affect that compile decision.
* The user must have a compatible SDL Mixer installed (same or better).
Newer SDL installs have bug fixes (especially on win), and may be
customized to the users machine, so this is up to the user.
* Changes to support compiling on Mac OS X (Darwin). Uses App folder.
Based on support from Gibbon.
Julius is a fully working open-source version of Caesar 3, with the same
logic as the original, but with some UI enhancements, that can be played on
multiple platforms.
Caesar III is a city-building game released in 1998. Players assume the
role of a provincial governor to build thriving cities across the Roman
Empire, in which they must ensure their citizens have their needs met, and
deal with various disasters, angry gods and hostile enemies.
Julius will not run without the original Caesar 3 files. You can buy a
digital copy from GOG or Steam, or you can use an original CD-ROM version.
The goal of the project is to have exactly the same game logic as Caesar 3,
with the same look and feel. This means that the saved games are 100%
compatible with Caesar 3, and any gameplay bugs present in the original
Caesar 3 game will also be present in Julius.
Augustus is a fork of the Julius project that intends to incorporate
customizable gameplay changes and enhancements to Caesar 3.
Caesar III is a city-building game released in 1998. Players assume the
role of a provincial governor to build thriving cities across the Roman
Empire, in which they must ensure their citizens have their needs met, and
deal with various disasters, angry gods and hostile enemies.
Because of gameplay changes and additions, save files from Augustus are NOT
compatible with Caesar 3 or Julius. Augustus is able to load Caesar 3 save
files, but not the other way around. If you want vanilla experience with
visual and UI improvements, or want to use save files in base Caesar 3,
check Julius.
Augustus, like Julius, requires the original assets (graphics, sounds, etc)
from Caesar 3 to run, such as the version from Steam, GOG.com, or the
original CD-ROM.
Augustus optionally supports the high-quality MP3 files once provided on the
Sierra website.
...where we need -std=gnu99 for alloca().
Use BUILDLINK_TRANSFORM to transform command line, otherwise
-std=c99 sneaks in and overrides, causing link failure.
Can't find where patch-pkg_default.gcw0.desktop is, not in CVS repository...
Some dependent packages link fine without fmtlib (eg. libixion)
and fmtlib ending up in their libtool file is causing problems
of its own.
This way only packages that are including those relevant fmtlib
symbols need to be explicitly linked against fmtlib.
These are currently duplicated in mk/platform/SunOS.mk but the generic
removals will be removed soon in favour of per-package removals, due to
flags getting leaked into installed files.

FEATURES 1.48.10
• Support for DeepBSP V4 extended nodes (based on crispy doom). Also ZDoom
extended nodes (based on code from woof 1.2.0), supporting uncompressed,
and compressed nodes (when zlib is present). Allows playing several wads,
such as Avactor, and Lost Civilization, that are otherwise playable by
DoomLegacy, but use extended nodes for several of their maps. Code provided
by Michael Bäuerle (FR_0095).
• Added the blockmap generation code provided by Michael Bäuerle (FR_0096).
Some of the code is borrowed from crispy doom, altered a bit by Michael
Bäuerle to suit DoomLegacy, and then totally mangled by WJ.
A blockmap control has been put into the menu.
□ Vanilla: Load the blockmap, preserves blockmap tricks.
□ Large: On large blockmaps (error prone), Generate the blockmap instead.
□ Generate: Always Generate a blockmap.
□ Auto: Try to Load the blockmap, upon significant errors then Generate a
blockmap.
• The hardware sky draw (OpenGL, etc.) now uses the extended textures. The
scaling and alignment of the sky in hardware draw has been made consistent
with software draw. The sky movement from head turning is greatly reduced.
There is still some horizontal wander.
The hardware sky still does not change when the player is Invulnerable. The
hardware draw sky does not support the necessary multiple colormaps right
now.
• A dehacked thing translation command line switch, -dehthing. This selects
the dehacked translation for thing numbers in the range 138 to 150. This
overrides the Automatic translation detection.
□ legacy : DoomLegacy untranslated
□ boom : translate things according to Boom
□ prboom : Boom and Beta things
□ ee : Eternity Engine things
• A separate supplementary wad is provided that has dog sprites and sounds.
Specified before a wad, it provides default dog sprites and sounds.
Specified after a wad, it replaces the dog sprites in a wad.
• More ports now allow a second mouse. This allows using PC, mousesystems,
and PS2 type mice. The ports that have the second mouse support are SDL,
WIN32, and X11.
• The Linux X11 port got a total rewrite of sfx sound. It previously was only
supporting OSS sound, and ESD sound. Can now select between OSS, ALSA, ESD,
PulseAudio, and JACK sound devices using the sound menu. For music, can now
select between MIDI, TiMidity, FluidSynth, external MIDI, FM_Synth, and
AWE32_Synth, using the sound menu. This depends upon which support got
compiled into the program, as selected in the make_options file.
Many of the options are untested. The last two Synth options depend on
older specific sound cards, and will not be included in released binaries.
I have not managed to get a FluidSynth installation to work, I don't have
an external MIDI device to test with, and JACK wants to take over the
entire sound system.
BUG FIXES 1.48.10
• Added failure detection for setting drawmode from config file. If the
config file drawmode fails then use a window at native bpp. This used to
fail ungracefully.
• Improved Gcc10 compilation, eliminating most of the nuisance messages.
Fixed usages of snprintf, and strncpy. Fixed bug 0671.
• The Clang compiler caught some mistakes. The old code probably did work.
Fixed bug 0672.
• Fixed where the program is stuck in client mode. Once having tried to
connect as client, the program would not go back to server mode, not even
when starting a netgame as server. A symptom was the player wait count
being initialized to 99. Fixed to set server mode. Fixes bug 0677.
• Players were kicked during netgame when their blood splat setting was
different than the server. As it was desireable to allow players to turn
off blood splats independently of the server setting, this was fixed by
making the off code call P_Random appropriately. This also fixes a demo
consistency error. Fixes bug 0678.
• Changed the netgame repair function to correctly report differences in
random number settings for the server. The message syntax was only
appropriate for the client, displaying reversed server/client values at the
server.
• Adding extended nodes fixed several bugs. Fixes bug #657, due to DeepBSP V4
extended nodes. Fixes the segfault in Eviternity.wad Map15 and Map32, due
to use of uncompressed ZDoom extended nodes.
• Fixed dehacked code to read Avactor.wad dehacked lump. Increased the
dehacked buffer length to 1028. Made all the string comparisons caseless.
Adopted some logic from PrBoom and Eternity regarding exiting sections on a
blank line. Detect "//" lines as comments.
• Fixed the hardware draw to clip lights at 0..255. Some wad editors put in a
default light value of 256. This fixes some wads, like Avactor.wad, which
has light values of 256 for some sectors. These would show up as black
sectors. Most ports allow the light field to exceed 255, allowing some
lighting tricks (that few wads take advantage of).
• In Avactor.wad, there are an excessive number of BSP partition lines that
miss the subsector. In this case the hardware draw BSP must determine if
the subsector poly is to the right, or to the left of the divide line. This
must match the BSP partitioning, as those poly will be assigned to the
front sector, and back sector. Sometimes it was testing a vertex on the
divline, leading to the poly being assigned to the wrong subsector. This
fixes a missing floor in Avactor.wad (Map04, sector 1757).
• Fixed some bad subsector draws for hardware-draw in Avactor.wad (Map05
sector 1502). These were using the wrong sector to draw the subsector. For
the polygons that do not have a linedef as a side, there must be a search
of all linedefs to find one that indentifies the sector that this subsector
is within. The test needed to be more robust for large maps.
• Lost Civilization uses some masked textures on upper textures and single
sided walls. This is not entirely valid usage, but it happens. The software
render draws black in the missing portions of the texture. With hardware
render, OpenGL, this shows sky through the wall. Fixed the hardware render
to also draw black in this usage.
• Fixed the menu selected extra dogs, to be spawned using the correct type
code. This fix was revised three times, as more problems with dehacked dogs
arose. Fixes bug 0681.
• Fixed the rocket in Valiant.wad. It uses dehacked thing numbers from Beta
versions, that are valid in PrBoom, but in Doom Legacy they match thing
numbers for Dogs, smoke, and other Legacy specific things.
Implemented dehacked detection that translates these to more appropriate
DoomLegacy things. This affects dehacked things in Lost Civilization,
Avactor, Valiant, and especially antaxyz.
• Always include the missing sprite detect, from Debug. Often the dog sprite
is missing from the wad.
• Made Voodoo card support optional. The base code is no longer tied to
support for Glide.
• Fix Load savegame menu controls to allow ESCAPE from the Load savegame
after changing to another directory.
Changes in 0.94.3
Handle sky textures with non-standard sizes and warn about them (e.g. ad_tears)
Allow loading textures not aligned to 16 pixels and warn about them (eg. the horde2 map of Dimension of the Machine from 2021 rerelease update/2.)

* For some games the API shows files with "count" and "total_size"
of zero meaning that they are not available to download
* These are listed on account page for information purpose only
(for example to show DLCs included in the installer)
