[not a bug] Refuses to start!

It reports some MAPINFO error no matter what I do! :/

"Script error, MAPINFO, Line 2: Bad syntax"

Found the problem - this particular wad in my /skins/ folder is causing the error.

It used to work before this. Why has this changed?

I have changed this because I wanted to take GL specific stuff out of MAPINFO. Glows are now specified in GLDEFS where they belong.

It now looks like this (but you have to wait for the next version. Some seemingly unrelated change broke the GLDEFS parser a little):

Code: Select all

Glow
{
	Flats
	{
		LAVA1 
		LAVA2 
		LAVA3 
		LAVA4 
		NUKAGE1 
		NUKAGE2 
		NUKAGE3
	    FWATER1 
	    FWATER2 
	    FWATER3 
	    FWATER4
		BLOOD1 
		BLOOD2 
		BLOOD3
		RROCK05
		RROCK06
		RROCK07
		RROCK08
	}
	
	Walls
	{
		FIREBLU1 
		FIREBLU2 
		FIRELAVA 
		FIRELAV2 
		FIRELAV3 
		FIREMAG1
	    FIREMAG2 
	    FIREMAG3 
	    FIREWALL 
	    FIREWALA 
	    FIREWALB
	}
}

This was an undocumented feature anyway so it won't come back.

I take it glows still don't work with slopes?

No, no changes there. I said before this is more or less an abandoned feature.
