Eternity-like portals?

[Graf Zahl]

Ok, that's easily taken care of. It just should not call Super::BeginPlay. It's a different native class for a reason, after all...

I still don't understand how these "new features" offer any advantage/ease over what ZDoom already has allowed for a very long time.

[Graf Zahl]

They don't. They are only there for compatibility reasons. If you ask me, Eternity's skybox implementation is utterly flawed and inconvenient to use.

[Gez]

Couldn't find a better way to work with the Doom map format. No TID, remember? Only one arg per special (the tag).

[Graf Zahl]

But for skyboxes? ZDoom's method placing one default skybox for the entire map is certainly much better than having to tag each single sector...

[Nash]

Compatibility? What for? For Eternity maps? Why would anyone want to play an Eternity map in a ZDoom engine? I thought the entire system is so different from each other.

You can play rf-kerk and OPF in GZDoom. There is only one glitch with OPF because Eternity's linedef type 289 effect ("transfer portal to linedef") isn't supported; so instead of seeing the line horizons from the stacked sectors meld into a single one, you see big walls.

For De Kerker, you also need a little patch wad containing DECORATE stuff, among others.
