Controls

  • Added fast mouse polling for lower lag interpolation at uncapped frame rate (thanks @ceski-1, @mikeday0 and @rfomin).
  • Mouse movement while the mouse button is held down in the active menu is no longer considered an extra key press.
  • Player will no longer automatically press use when entering a new level after skipping intermission texts by pressing use.
  • Added a special bind for toggling the extended HUD, available in the Keyboard Binds / Special Keys section (toggles all enabled on-screen widgets and the demo bar, thanks @Catoptromancy and Aurelius).
  • Level reload / Go to next level from tally screen now possible.

Video

  • Improved support for UltraWide screen modes at higher render resolutions. Added 32:9 widescreen mode to the Video Options menu, as it is now properly supported. (thanks @Meerschweinmann).
  • Improved stability and precision of full-screen patch drawing at higher render resolutions (thanks @Meerschweinmann).
  • Added "Crossfade" for "Screen wiping effect".

Other improvements

  • Save and Load menu now shows date and time of save game file (thanks @fabiangreffrath).
  • Added savegames_path, screenshots_path config variables and -shotdir command line parameter (thanks @liPillON).
  • Single sided automap lines now appearing last in drawing order (Woof! issue #1665. Thanks @ribbiks, @rfomin and @fabiangreffrath).
  • "Mark secret sectors" will now always show secret sectors after they've been found on the automap, and optionally before as well (by @kitchen-ace, thanks!).
  • Extended "Show ENDOOM" to "PWAD only".
  • Quick load before quick save now possible (thanks @fabiangreffrath).
  • Updated program icons to 256x256 size.

Doom only

  • Added back -complevel N command line parameter to emulate a specific version of Doom engine executable. Supported complevels are 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Heretic only

  • Added back support for graphical startup, available in Video Options menu.

Hexen only

  • Extra translucency of Quietus' green clouds has been disabled, as they can cause serious framerate drops on point-blank attacks.

  • Updated SDL library to version 2.30.4 and FluidSynth to version 2.3.5

Compiled using GCC 14.1.0 under MSYS environment.
