I'm pretty sure it's for the outline highlighting too. So basically, you want floor tiles? :P Joking aside, the 'easy' fix for that would be removing the flat flag from corpses. Of course, that would probably cause side effects in the other direction... The proper way to fix it would be to...

An option to change the SPECIAL/derived stat relationships via a config file is in svn. On closer inspection I'm not going to be touching explosion range/etc. There's nothing simple I can do there; there's no 'range' as such, it only checks adjacent tiles, and stores it all in a struct that's...

Just getting the fire death animation is easy; use hs_deathanim1 with something like 'if(get_sfall_arg == PID_MOLOTOVE) then set_sfall_result(PID_FLAMER)' Actually doing fire type damage isn't something that's trivial with the current hook scripts available. You'd have to use hs_combatdamage...

You'll have to hack something together with hook scripts for that one. Slightly better, I guess. I don't have any of my stuff in front of me at the minute, so I'll have to wait till I get back home to check, but if there's just a hardcoded tile number somewhere it'll be easy to change. The...

Just carry weight would be a bit silly. Something like that would hit all of the derived stats. Should be relatively easy in any case, given that I already do very similar things for traits and skills. Not really. If you want more granuality, you might as well boost max carry weight and the...

Sure, sounds like a good idea. Commited to svn.

If you hold down, umm, control? (Some key anyway, and it's configurable in ddraw.ini.) then you can scroll the window around with the mouse. With background mouse turned on you can click and drag the titlebar like normal too, but background mouse makes the game pretty much unplayable in windowed...

Hmm? Why would that be interesting? It shouldn't make any difference for users, it would just let me tidy the code up a little.

I just went and bought it to check what it's doing. It's fully the american version; american exe, american data, and includes the children. It's not in fact the same build that's on steam/new boxes: There's no unofficial material in there at all, optional or otherwise. The ddraw.dll that's...

That's odd enough on its own. None of the compatibility settings should have been on after renaming it, uncheckable or not. Glad it's fixed though. :) Heh, you don't have to extol the virtues of GoG to me. I already have a bigger-than-healthy collection of games over there, including 8 from...

Yup, there's plenty of happy win7 users, including the author of sfall, so you'd have thought it would be pretty much guaranteed to work there. :P sfall will refuse to run if the 256 colour option is set, so yes, that's your problem right there. (For good reason - the compatibility settings...

len_array returns -1 if the variable you give it isn't an array, and the only time string_split doesn't return an array is when one of the parameters isn't a string, but you've already checked that. :| I don't know what's going on there. I just tried it myself in case I've broken something at...

Is it possible that param1 sometimes isn't a string? Yes, that will work, and will be faster than calling string_split twice too. The array returned by string_split is valid until the function which called it returns, unless you call fix_array on it, in which case it's permanent until you...

Maybe I never added an option for it in the gui then. I'll take a look when I get home. I think there's some cases the old compiler would accept a missing semi-colon, where the sfall one is more strict. You can check the previous line to see if there's a semi-colon missing on it, or otherwise...

What's the error? Whatever it is though, there's a backward compatibility option you can use that should let you compile anything that the old compiler would accept. (Albeit at the cost of disabling array support, for/foreach loops, and whatever other new bits of syntax I thought would be a...

What, all of them? OK, lets see how many I can dig up. From sourceforge and the various *nexus sites, grouped by game and in roughly chronological order: morrowind: exe optimizer, mouse based combat control, morrowind graphics extender, better booze, timeslip's trinkets, thief style ranged...

For the three mentioned in the interview: mge, sfall and fomm

Try clicking on things? The buttons on the main menu are big enough that if you click around randomly you should be able to hit one. It's a shame there's no keyboard shortcuts for the load menu, because that would be an even bigger target. I don't think that could happen though. There...

The mouse input is handled by SDL, in relative mode, so something must be preventing SDL from tracking the mouse movement properly. I lose the mouse pointer in a vm unless I turn mouse integration off, but that probably doesn't help much in this case. :| I'm not sure what to do there, sorry...

My engine? I think you're misunderstanding what this is. There's no engine of my own involved.
