Giving PowerLightAmp or PowerTorch from the PowerupGiver behaves as usual. However, making new Power types from either of of those simply fail to provide vision. Works fine in ZDoom's software renderer.

Here's the code I tested with:

Spoiler:

---

LightPower1: Power given is inherited from PowerLightAmp (Fails)
LightPower2: Power from PowerTorch (Fails)
LightPower3: Power given is PowerLightAmp (Succeeds)
LightPower4: Power is PowerTorch (Succeeds)

Code: Select all

Actor LightPower1 : PowerupGiver
{
	+INVENTORY.AUTOACTIVATE
	+INVENTORY.ALWAYSPICKUP
	+INVENTORY.QUIET
	Inventory.MaxAmount 0
	Powerup.Type "Light1"
	Powerup.Duration -60
	Powerup.Color 0, 0, 0, 0.0
}

Actor PowerLight1 : PowerLightAmp
{
	+INVENTORY.HUBPOWER
	+INVENTORY.PERSISTENTPOWER
}

Actor LightPower2 : PowerupGiver
{
	+INVENTORY.AUTOACTIVATE
	+INVENTORY.ALWAYSPICKUP
	+INVENTORY.QUIET
	Inventory.MaxAmount 0
	Powerup.Type "Light2"
	Powerup.Duration -60
	Powerup.Color 0, 0, 0, 0.0
}

Actor PowerLight2 : PowerTorch
{
	+INVENTORY.HUBPOWER
	+INVENTORY.PERSISTENTPOWER
}

Actor LightPower3 : PowerupGiver
{
	+INVENTORY.AUTOACTIVATE
	+INVENTORY.ALWAYSPICKUP
	+INVENTORY.QUIET
	Inventory.MaxAmount 0
	Powerup.Type "LightAmp"
	Powerup.Duration -60
	Powerup.Color 0, 0, 0, 0.0
}

Actor LightPower4 : PowerupGiver
{
	+INVENTORY.AUTOACTIVATE
	+INVENTORY.ALWAYSPICKUP
	+INVENTORY.QUIET
	Inventory.MaxAmount 0
	Powerup.Type "Torch"
	Powerup.Duration -60
	Powerup.Color 0, 0, 0, 0.0
}

Hopefully this is not just my own problem. I also tested all the weay back to r566, and it wasn't working with then, either. So it's apparently not (as I had guessed) related to the recent changes regarding fake contrast...

No changes to lighting mode, fog mode, Fake Contrast mode, or even Enhanced Night Vision Mode made any difference.

Yes, small oversight. It checked for the exact powerup class, not descendants.

Ah, good to know it was that simple.
