small status progress in case anybody's interested: since last year, nothing happened in k8vavoom. at all. ;-)
i am busy writing myself The Brand New Code Editor. already wrote 700+ kb of code, still cannot properly edit text files, lol. i need at least one more month to polish SXED (yes, you pronounced it right ;-), and maybe more (you know what it means when a programmers says "i need only one more month").
it doesn't mean that i am ran out of ideas for k8vavoom. i just ran out of patience, and want a better editor. and too lazy to learn any existing Big One (it is easier to write your own).
don't worry, k8vavoom is still The Main Project.
no tears, please. we have such sights to show you!

Not surprised one needs to roll their own editor to program in C++.

Not surprised one needs to roll their own editor to program in C++. actually, this is the second attempt (6th or so, but prevous ones died young). i am already using my own editor for writing code (not the new one i am writing now, but one from the previous attempt), yet it sux. the new one is better, much faster, and much more maintainable and extensible. basically, i am reinventing Emacs, only without elisp. ;-) the idea is that the editor should work equally fast on one-line twitter-like text note, and on a gigabyte-sized text file. and SXED really does, all text operations (including rendering) are O(log n), where "n" is file size. it also allocates memory strictly by 4KB chunks, so goodbye, memory fragmentation. and there are no linear list or simple arrays there, all "arrays" support O(log n) (with O(2*log n) guaranteed maximum) for all 3 basic operations: searching, inserting and deletion. also, unlimited undo (you will never run out of memory by trying to undo deletion of 100 MB of some text ;-). brand new syntax highlighting engine is online (i.e. it can work in background, and it does), and it can highlight 21-22 MB of text per second on my i3/3.5 GHz. it is already one of the fastest text editing engines out there, and i am not even really started to optimise it yet. ;-) p.s.: of course, the code is open, GPLv3. everything (except critbit trees) is written by me from the scratch. |

thats awesome can some one else use this text editor for other things too the source code is open and free, so people can either take it as is, or use it to build their own things. i myself won't be doing any promotion for SXED (i am writing it for my personal use), but if somebody else will find it useful later… ok, that's why we have free code after all. ;-) of course, the editor is GNU/Linux only (at least for now), because that's the OS i am using. |

so, i switched to dogfooding for almost a week. SXED is used to develop SXED, and now i'm working on scripting. if anybody wonders wtf is this doing in k8vavoom thread… this will be the main tool to develop k8vavoom, so why not. ;-)
i wanted to upload some screenshots, but catbox.moe is temporarily down. so be it. ;-)

holy shit stay safe ketmar im rooting for you thank you! but please, don't worry, as you can't do anything with the situation anyway. the last thing i want to see other people feel nervous for all that shit. ;-) i appreciate all support, thank you, people. but the best you can do for us now is to relax, and maybe play some Doom. it's good to know that at least life is ok in other places. |

just in case: i'm hearing air ride sirens from time to time (and it's not an Iron Maiden tour, sadly ;-), but otherwise it's relatively quiet here. i'm still alive. ;-) dunno for how long it will be like that, but it's a common thing these days: nobody knows nothing for sure.

Good to hear you're still alright. I was just thinking about you today and was wondering if you were OK, so thanks for checking in. |

and as i don't know when i'll be able to return to k8vavoom development, here's the maintenance build with the latest fixes i did before all that shit happened.
changelog:
* fixed `A_ZoomFactor()` (all args are optional) (thanks, TDRR!)
* relaxed non-3d pobj checks, so Hexen maps should work again (thanks, TDRR!)
* fixed infinite loop in 3d pobj speed calc (thanks, Remilia Scarlet!)
* fixed typo in `VEntity::IsRealBlockingLine()` (3d pobj/map coldet) (thanks, Remilia Scarlet!)
* `AmbientSound` actor should stop ambient sound on BODY channel (because it was started on BODY too)
* fixed invalid detection of insta-move ceilings, that caused annoying sound farts (thanks, pramenid!)
FUCK ALL WARS!

yeah, i'm implementing KVX/KV6 model loader. nope, GZDoom VOXELDEF won't work, you will need to create the normal k8vavoom 3d model definition XML to use voxels. because from the engine POV voxels are just another type of 3d models. |
