Weird HOM effect on sector portals (ZDoom)


NoWaves

Question

There's this strange HOM effect happening with sector portals. The anchor point is matched up, the physics work properly, it just displays like a missing texture unless I'm on an adjacent sector. I have all the portal sectors joined and one anchor point, so I don't have to tag to death. The sectors are exactly the same dimensions. Attached screenshot of editor and video of the glitch. What's causing this? Do I absolutely have to separate each sector?

I'm using GZDoom Builder, GZDoom to test, and the map is ZDoom in Hexen format

Why would anybody in their right mind take an avatar name which conjures up thousands of lifes taken by a muderous nazi regime. War, of any type, is a terrible thing and usually brings out the worst of humanity.

 

I do not know who or what you are, I assume rather young, the decent thing for you to do would be to change the avatar name to something amiable.

 

As to the problem with your map, the video does not show what you have done. It would be helpful if you uploaded the map instead. Meanwhile read up on Stacked sectors.

Well after 10 years of using this username, I knew this would happen eventually. I'm sorry, I usually shorten it to "dach" or "dachdade", initially to avoid the mouthful, but after I read up on the WWII/ the holocaust a couple years back, it was for this reason. I came up with this username when I was 12 and had no understanding or knowledge of most aspects of the horrible things that happened back then.

 

A quick explanation:

I did not make this as a reference to Dachau.

Around this time my friends had taken to calling me Chauncey as a nickname. I was trying to come up with a name better than my usual homestar runner reference followed by a couple letters. I decided to add the suffix "-inator" to the end of chauncey, creating chauncinator because that sounded cool, being 12 and all. I was trying to make an account (on I think runescape?) at the time and the name chauncinator was taken. So I added "Da" in front of chauncinator to read like "Da' Chauncinator", another thing that sounded cool to my 12 year old self. Since then it's stuck and it's my name for most things (the shortened version for everything but dead accounts).

 

I haven't really used Doomworld since my teenage years, so I haven't updated the name since I went in my world history rabbit hole. Going to be edited immediately following this post.

 

Again, I apologize if it caused you or anyone else any distress.
