I don't think that is related to SV_TouchLinks.

Here is Quakespasm's SV_TouchLinks fix which I adapted from Spike's in QSS:
https://github.com/ericwa/Quakespasm/blob/master/quakespasm/Quake/world.c#L325 

Is there a particular reason why Mark V (1081) wouldn't copy over screen resolution settings from id1 folder when running mods from custom dirs? 

 

I am used to Mark V taking all settings from config.cfg located in the id1 folder... 

Here's my QuakeSpasm parameters for AD. They're from the readme:
-game ad_v1_50final -heapsize 256000 -zone 4096

The ad_sepulcher readme says to use these:
-game ad +map ad_chapters

I'm not sure if something else could be causing system overload. Maybe the Intel HD Graphics 3000 drivers emulating stuff in software? 

I've implemented a SV_TouchLinks "fix" in my code, and it broke the end-of-level teleporter in the map Citadel of Doom. That map is good for testing. 

Spike's more robust SV_TouchLinks fix works fine in that map.

The Intel HD 3000 should not be emulating anything in software; it's right at the start of the "Intel graphics are no longer crap" era and IIRC will even run Doom 3. 

I thought this was no longer needed... 

mh: Yeah, I've played Doom 3, Quake 4 and the 2013 Shadow Warrior in it. 

Aw hell!

So many posts to read.

I had super-Android obsessive tunnel-vision "I will beat this platform into the ground and make it do my bidding" madness.

I figured there were be 5 new posts here, instead there are maybe 35-45 haha!

I will read them. But a bit too much too digest right now -- I see something about a TouchLinks thing, I have some sort of TouchLinks fix in Mark V from some other respected source but apparently not good enough for the issue in question. 

Do QuakeDroid bugs belong here or in the QuakeDroid thread. Enjoying QuakeDroid a lot btw. 

Yeah, QuakeDroid is a different kind of animal.

So all QuakeDroid talk should be in the QuakeDroid thread.

I'm glad you are enjoying QuakeDroid. 

@Spike - thanks for helping Cadaver with his multiplayer.

@cadaver - Glad you got it working. Mark V uses Spike's single port server so just port 26000. 

Touchlinks - I can't recall where/how I got the touchlinks fix. And if I recall, when I was acquiring Spike's QSS single port server/IPv6/server browser capabilities, his was slightly different. Mark V has "co-op players can walk through each other on respawn and the ability to save multiplayer games AND reload them with the wrong number of players.

So if the code their looks usual, lots of action going on. 

@nightfright - here in a couple of days, I'll see if I dig into the Chillo model pack thing.

@nightfright2 - I am used to Mark V taking all settings from config.cfg located in the id1 folder...

Mark V loads AND saves the settings to the Quake startup gamedir. If you start up Mark V in id1, it will use id1. If you start up in "-game rapture" it will use rapture.

So it sounds like you played, say, rapture and then changed the video mode, which causes the video mode to write to, say, rapture --- then you started id1, the video mode from id1 was the old one.

@mankrip - Ok, you are talking about a Quakespasm issue. I assume. 

Wondering if you could add support for light entities in the entity inspector mode? Just curious. Not a huge priority. 

Sure, I can put that on the medium-term wish list. I think (?).

I haven't thought about lights in a long time.

I'm not immediately sure if they stick around or just ones that can be toggled/flicker like the E1M1 nail gun up the lift that is dark until you trigger it.

Do you have something that prompted this thought that perhaps you were trying to do while mapping? 

I was recording a basic lighting tutorial and wanted to show viewers what the diff light values and whatever other info was displayed. However no lights for me at all. I was using 1.50 and I do need to upgrade my video capture directory to the latest version.

Honestly, I'd hate for you to add it just for me but I think the functionality is very cool overall and was curious about why lights weren't included. I didn;t try to examine switchable lights. Will try that. 

You've done a great job with those video tutorials, I've read that they have help a lot of people.

My focus with the tool_inspector was mostly QuakeC/entities as an assist to mappers to be able to

1) To get the entity # for an entity!
2) examine why something does/doesn't work in their own map
3) check out the mechanics of a different map

So lights never even occurred to me.

So lights never crossed my mind. 

Not really a request. I'd rather you work on Gunter's wishlist. ;) 

I'm not immediately sure if they stick around or just ones that can be toggled/flicker like the E1M1 nail gun up the lift that is dark until you trigger it.

Yep this is right, light ents are removed from the world on map load unless they have targetnames, or a sound/model attached to them (e.g. light_fluoro/globe etc). Simple enough QC alteration to disable this (misc.qc #45) but not sure how advisable that is. 

Makes perfect sense. No not worth the effort IMO. 

Maybe it's just me, but Mark V D3D9 starts to visually stutter on the default host_maxfps "72" when I'm moving and "mouselooking" at the same time. I normally play on 144, which is double the default, despite it causing physics bugs, so that's why I didn't notice it right away. Is there a special CVAR I could tweak or something I need to configure in the NVIDIA Control Panel? Or is it a bug? Doesnt't happen with Quakespasm btw, but that uses OpenGL.

Thx in advance :) 

Sorry for the double post, but I don't know how to edit my posts. Do I need to register? Please forgive my ignorance.

Anyway, in Scourge of Armagon, the SG & SSG leave one bullet hole decal every shot, these are rendered through walls in Mark V. 

Wild guesses:

Only mentioning it because Windows 10 is known to install miscellaneous apps/features without user consent.

I wouldn't normally post wild guesses.

1- Search "Xbox" in windows taskbar's search bar (Bottom left of your screen where Cortana is)
2- Click on the Xbox application icon to open it
3- Find the settings icon (a small gear) on the taskbar to the left side of the Xbox application's window and click on it to open the settings menu
4- Find the Tab labeled " Game DVR" and select it
5- Slide the switch to off to turn off the Game DVR feature.

Other miscellaneous:
