This emulates Vanilla Doom's MIDI playback when + using a Yamaha OPL synthesizer chip, as was found on + SoundBlaster compatible cards. + + A software OPL emulator is included as most modern computers do + not have a hardware OPL chip any more. If you do have one, you + can configure Chocolate Doom to use it; see README.OPL. + + The OPL playback feature is not yet perfect or 100% complete, + but is judged to be good enough for general use. If you find + music that does not play back properly, please report it as a + bug. + + Other changes: + * The REJECT overflow emulation code from PrBoom+ has been + imported. This fixes demo desync on some demos, although + others will still desync. + * Warnings are now generated for invalid dehacked replacements of + printf format strings. Some potential buffer overflows are + also checked. + 1.3.0 (2010-02-10): * Chocolate Doom now runs on Windows Mobile/Windows CE! -- cgit v1.2.3
