[2.1.6] Bug : Saving messes up fog system and turn on bright

[MAPET]

When I save a game the whole fog system will be disabled and brightness of screen is going to messed up. Please fix this strange bug...

You're using the wrong version.

First off, GZDoom has never advanced to the 2.x.x series, only ZDoom has. This means you're using ZDoom.

Also, you're using a very outdated version of ZDoom and this bug was long fixed.

Latest GZDoom version
Latest ZDoom version

SVN Builds (sometimes more stable than release)

Sorry I forgot to mention that I'm using the latest SVN version 1216... My fault, but this bug is in the newest SVN version. Anyway thanks for reply, I'm very excited how great is this project.

[Enjay]

Confirmed. Saving in r1216 (either via the menu or quicksave) makes the whole level fullbright.

[Rachael]

Thanks for clarifying then. I'm sure Graf or Gez will have a look at it when they have the time.

[Graf Zahl]

Only GZDoom or also ZDoom? The save code is identical in both and this is possibly related to the lighting changes of ZDoom r3223

[Enjay]

Only GZdoom. Zdoom r3224 seems fine for me.

Confirmed (r1216), but for me, saving doesn't turn the light on, it turns it off.

[NeuralStunner]

Confirmed for me as well. This is especially tricky with AutoSave enabled. Unfortunately, the maxed brightness gets included in the save as well, so reloading is not a viable workaround.

[Enjay]

Is it still happening for you? r1217 fixed it for me.

[NeuralStunner]

Is it still happening for you? r1217 fixed it for me.

Yes, it appears to be working now. Bizarre! I wonder what actually changed between those two revisions, or perhaps something was missed in the build process last time?

[Graf Zahl]

The thing that changed was the ZDoom revision number. That caused a broken savegame in r1216.
