- ZenNode - Possibly the fastest DOOM(tm) BSP builder yet.
-
- Future Plans: ( more or less in this order )
-
- Add a seperate utility to automatically generate a customization file
- Add a few options to the REJECT builder to speed things up.
- Accept .DWD files as input
-
-
- Revision History:
-
- Ver 0.98a Fix run-time error building NODES.
- Improved REJECT algorithm.
- Win32: Restore cursor after Ctrl-C, Ctrl-Break, or GP-Fault.
-
- Ver 0.98 Added REJECT builder.
- Changed command-line default to create a real REJECT.
- Improved method used to determine the PWAD type.
-
- Ver 0.97a Fix - related to saving .WADs given a full pathname.
- Fix - related to [unique-sectors] option in .zen files.
- Fix - related /n2 switch on large levels.
- Improved error detection for .WAD file operations.
-
- Ver 0.97 Added /x switch to extract rebuilt levels to a PWAD
- Added configuration file for default command-line switches
- Added customization file indicating:
- - linedefs that should be ignored
- - sectors/linedefs that should not be split
- - sectors that should/should not be unique in a SSECTOR
- Improved BLOCKMAP compression routines
- Fixed bugs in the minimize depth algorithm
-
- Ver 0.96 Changed command line option syntax.
- Added user customization of the partition formula
- Added BLOCKMAP compression
- Added minimal support for the REJECT structure
- Added /nu switch for controlling unique sub-sector creation
- Added a new algorithm for more speed
- Modified the original algorithm - fewer splits / a little slower :(
- - uses fewer diagonal partitions
- - slightly slower than before :( - but just a little - :)
- Modified the algorithm for minimizing BSP tree depth - lower depth
- Fixed bugs in the BLOCKMAP routines
- Added balance information to BSPInfo
-
- Ver 0.95 Added support for HEXEN WADs
- Added /d switch for minimizing BSP tree depth
- Added /i switch to ignore non important linedefs
- Improved error messages for invalid/open WADs
- Fixed bug related to WADs w/o existing NODES/SEGS
- A few more minor speed-ups
- Included BSPInfo
-
- Ver 0.94 Added BLOCKMAP creation
- Added new command line options:
- - select multiple levels for each WAD
- - merge multiple WADs into one
- - specify output filename
- - handle multiple seperate WADs
- Replaced ZenNT with a 32-bit DPMI/Win32 Console version
- Placed each platform version in its own sub-directory in .ZIP
-
- Ver 0.93 Added ZenNT - Win32 Console version
- A few more minor speed-ups
- Fixed minor bugs
- Added /q switch
-
- *Ver 0.92 Added new routines to speed up the NODES build process.
- Added /t switch
-
- *Ver 0.91 Replaced Borland C++'s malloc/free to avoid a bug that causes
- a GP Fault at run-time on large levels.
- Added 'Heretic'(tm) to the help screen.
-
- Ver 0.90 First public release. Rebuilds NODES found in a single .WAD
- file specified on the command line.
-
- *Not publicly released
