Hi there!

I saw Laurent yesterday. He's done more than half the coding of diew in
assembly language.
Do you think it would be possible to add the wall textures in the C version
to prepare the sequel of Laurent's work? Do you know how to do it or do you
need a few clues? We can for the moment forget about transparent textures.
But probably, one should transform the texture when loading it to transform
it into true color and to make it an ordinary bit-map. Doom textures are
organized in colomns, in which it is specified how many pixels you must
draw, then these pixels, how many transparent pixels, and so on. For
completely opaque textures, this is of course not a good format.
Would it be difficult also to prevent the player from going through the walls?
Have you finally found your bug? We haven't. I've seen it, of course. It's
these rectangles that appear at the right of some doors? Rounding or
clipping error?
Anyway. There is still no news from iD. I guess they're very much occupied
with Quake.

Bye.
Bertrand
