Hi I am no longer going to contribute or support GZDoom

Not yet, but real soon, promise! Just got to get the automated nightly build system set up

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 6h

Damn that's just depressing to read

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 6h

I see, sorry I misunderstood. Well, save games _normally_ don't break between engine updates unless some really, REALLY big update got in, so I guess my answer is... it highly depends. Unfortunately it's unavoidable in the case of giant changes

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 14h

Oof, sorry to hear that, yeah that doesn't sound good :/ Still, I'll be all ears to any developments on the localization front!

DZDoom was a shortsighted name hastily scribbled down. To understand the context, things were moving so fast that there wasn't even time to properly decide a new name. After the initial action taken, we finally agreed on the name UZDoom and changed it.

tl;dr bad old name, it's now UZDoom

We would be honored to be the engine powering your project 🙏

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 17h

GZDoom's save files, and mods, will be 100% compatible with UZDoom! You'll just have to move the files over (we'll post some instructions eventually to help those who might be struggling with it)

Hi, DZDoom was a short-sighted name that was not a good idea in hindsight and therefore renamed to UZDoom; the story was that when all this happened, it happened so quickly that there wasn't enough time to even name it properly.

We will have automated builds up soon 🙏

Saves will not break! As well as mod compatibility will be 100% the same as GZDoom

We'll set up an automated nightly build system as soon as we can

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 1d

😱

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 1d

I myself was making deez nuts self-jokes in the Discord voice chat earlier lmao

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah the final name is UZDoom. "DZDoom" was a result of me being violently woken up when I was ready to head to bed and the consensus from everyone was "quick we need to fork this project before everything gets deleted"

Plus the first name sucks and is already taken apparently

You'll be delighted to know the first thing we took care of was the texture filtering

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 1d

I'm still (carefully) crafting my statement but if anyone wants to reach out for questions, feel free to DM me. Or I guess The Deets(tm) will land on your newsfeed somehow lol

I have never seen something I've worked so hard on, for the past 2+ decades - a life passion of mine, you could say - implode this hard.

THAT'S WHAT WE WANNA HEAR BABY!!! YEEEEAH~!

Nash Muhandes sharing that the new gzdoom fork will have texture filtering off my default!

Nash Muhandes @nashmuhandes.bsky.social · 1d

Done

Uranium @uranium.badposters.club · 1d

i can only pray that the team working on the new fork of gzdoom sets texture filtering to off by default. not the worst opinion of graf by far, but goddamn was it irritating to have to turn off the "make doom look worse" option every time i made a new cfg file so I could set mod specific controls

I suppose we'll finally have texture filtering turned off by default. Hash tag if you know you know

Context soon. I'm preparing an announcement.
