I know its not worth your time, but would it be possible to print out

Code: Select all

HACK DETECTED (x,y)
Hack: whatever the hack is
to the console? I would find it entertaining. Something you may be able to add once you get all the important stuff done, or a feature you could add just as an excuse to up the version number by a letter if you haven't thought of anything new in a while. (I doubt that, because you seem to have taken ZDOOM over and added every feature that makes it kickass). Wonder if anyone still plays ZDOOM? :?:

Also, I envy you. You are one of the few people on this planet that can actually look at a crash log and figure it out

Keep up the damn good work.

That line is just some debug output I forget to comment out. It merely means the engine found some open sectors. It doesn't have any direct implications which can be determined only during rendering.

That isn't really that hard if you have a .map file with all the addresses of the functions and a complete assembly output of the code. All you have to do is look which function is represented by an address and then look up the code that is there.

Considering that, a ZDoom crash log is as useless to me as to anybody else except Randy.
