| ## 3.1.0 (2024-08-01) | ||
| ***This is a major release built upon on the fresh Chocolate Doom 3.1.0 code base. Its main new feature is the addition of True color rendering support as a compile-time option for all four games. Thanks to all contributors!*** | ||
|
|
||
| ### General | ||
| * Drag and drop loading of WAD, Dehacked and demo files is now supported on | ||
| Windows - simply drag the files onto chocolate-doom.exe (thanks Fabian). | ||
| * WAD file autoloading was added - WAD and DEH files can be copied into | ||
| an autoload folder to be automatically included on every game start. | ||
| * Music pack configuration has been significantly simplified. By simply | ||
| copying .flac/.ogg music files into a folder they will be automatically | ||
| detected by filename and used. | ||
| * Music packs can now be used with OPL as a fallback, and music pack | ||
| config files can have any name ending in '.cfg'. | ||
| * MP3 music packs are now supported. | ||
| * Network synchronization now uses a PID controller by default, which | ||
| makes games more smooth and more stable, especially for Internet play. | ||
| * UDP hole punching is now used to make servers behind NAT gateways | ||
| automatically accessible to the Internet. | ||
| * OPL emulation now uses Nuked OPL3 v1.8 (thanks nukeykt) | ||
| * Allow simultaneous PC speaker emulation and OPL emulation | ||
| (thanks Michael Day). | ||
| * The setup tool now uses "Romero Blue" as a background (see the wiki: | ||
| <https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Romero_Blue> for more info). | ||
| * The 0 and 5 keys on the number pad can now be bound independently | ||
| of any other keyboard key (thanks BlooD2ool). | ||
| * With aspect ratio correction disabled, the game can scale to any | ||
| arbitrary size and remove all black borders in full screen mode. | ||
| (thanks chungy) | ||
| * The executable's location is now checked when looking for IWADs. | ||
| * The IWAD files installed by Steam-on-Linux are now detected (thanks | ||
| chungy). | ||
| * It's now possible to use `-response` to load response files. | ||
| * Default savegame name now includes the WAD filename (thanks Fabian). | ||
| * Mouse movement is no longer read when the game window is inactive | ||
| (thanks Julia Nechaevskaya). | ||
| * Chocolate Doom now by default generates a "pet name" for the user | ||
| to respect privacy (thanks Jon!) | ||
| * The Freedoom single-player IWAD files are now officially supported, | ||
| since recent versions changed all levels to be vanilla compatible. | ||
| * Add native support for the FluidSynth midi synthesizer. | ||
| * Add a fsynth_gain config key to fine tune the FluidSynth output level | ||
| (thanks Fabian). | ||
| * Redesign of native MIDI support in Windows (thanks ceski and Roman Fomin): | ||
| - Emulates DMX MPU-401 feature set by default, change with | ||
| `winmm_complevel`. | ||
| - MIDI device reset between songs using "GM System On", change with | ||
| `winmm_reset_type`. | ||
| - Configurable delay after reset for legacy MIDI hardware (e.g. Roland | ||
| SC-55), change with `winmm_reset_delay`. | ||
| * Add improved gamepad support via the SDL\_GameController interface. This | ||
| includes support for analog triggers, modern dual-stick default bindings | ||
| (based on Unity Doom), descriptive button names for common controller types | ||
| and configurable dead zones for stick axes. (Michael Day). | ||
| * All games now have shiny new icons! | ||
| * The -display parameter was added to specify the display number on which to show the screen (thanks Robin Emeršič). | ||
