as far as windows and the C api is concerned, / is as portable as \
leading \\ (or //) will be interpreted as a unc path if the tool doesn't de-markup the string (hurrah for lazy parsing), so be sure to use / instead of \\ if its the first char of a drive-relative path, even in windows.
Hexen 2 Support?
#1491 posted by Bloodshot on 2014/12/20 23:33:32
So are there any plans/chance for Hexen 2 support?
I have a couple of mapping ideas I want to try out for it but I'm sick of the editors I used to use
Hexen 2 is supported in TB 2.0... You need to speak to SleepwalkR about access as a beta tester
Beta Test?

How would I go about that? Should i just ask about it here?
Yes

Annoying Issue

so i go and make some terrain looks fine in the editor and compile it looks fine in game
then i load my map back up in the editor and some of the terrain vertex points are off by one unit or more which is impossible to fix sometimes without making the terrain again and hoping it will be trenchbroom valid
yet when i load the map up in hammer those vertex points arent messed up

seems to load vertex points correctly nothing is off grid in 1.0
Seems I Fixed It

running trenchbroom.exe with compatibility mode for any OS fixes it idk why but it does
That Is Unlikely.
But do make sure that you use the latest version, which is 1.1.1
You do tend to see vertices wander off grid over time. I think a fix was suggested but not sure if it was implemented
There Is No Fix
But if you keep your plane points on the grid and don't build too complex brushes, the errors will be small enough to ignore.

i wasnt even making anything complex just some raised or inverted brushes and they were going off grid until i set compatibility mode
and the problem doesnt occur on my win 8.1 x64-bit computer if i dont set compatibility mode only on this computer which is win 7 x64-bit so maybe its OS based
Posessed Map

In Mac OS, if I double-click this map in the Finder to open it in TB (latest 1.1 build), look at the brushes, then quit the TB application and repeat, the map will look different each time: sometimes there's vertex drift (with different amounts/directions), sometimes not.

On the latest Windows TB1.1 build, it seems to always open with no vertex drift; but if I open the map, go to File -> New, then open it again, it has vertex drift then.

Here is what I got when saving the drifted version in Windows:

It's pretty weird, I might see if I can debug what's going on. Maybe memory corruption somewhere?
I Have No Idea
But it doesn't happen in TB2?
Doesn't Seem To

I opened good.map in TB2 a few times and it looks OK. Also when I load and save good.map in TB2, the saved file is the same as the original (ignoring the order of the faces) which is good.
Lol

Well, I ran TB1 in Valgrind and it reported that while loading my test map, Face::Face(worldBounds, forceIntegerFacePoints, point1, point, point2, textureName) was using an uninitialized value, m_forceIntegerFacePoints. If I stick in a m_forceIntegerFacePoints = false/true; there, my map reliably loads correctly/drifted, and the valgrind warning disappears. Will post a PR on github.
I think that can explain the weirdness a lot of people had, since it would mean every time a map loads, each face had a chance of being snapped to have integer face points.
Valgrind
How did you get it to ignore all the warnings from within wxwidgets? When I tried it, I got so many that I couldn't find those which originated in my own code.
Ah

I didn't do anything special; there were only 10 or so from wxWidgets as the application started, but none after that. I was using wx 2.9.5 and followed your instructions in Linux/Build.txt.
Interesting
Maybe it's worse on wxWidgets-Cocoa.

Danget Trenchbroom 1 needs the vertex snap to grid option from 2 :)
Right now I bounce between the 2 for map diagnostic bug hunting. So easy to find brushes that have verts not snapped to the grid.
But this is a nice fix!
