  • Widescreen mode can now be toggled using the + and – keys while the menu is open.
  • The sucktime CVAR now shows as being off when set to 0, and now has a maximum value of 24 hours.
  • The time displayed on the intermission screen is now positioned better if the player takes more than an hour to complete a map and the sucktime CVAR is greater than its default of 1 hour.
  • The map’s title in the automap is now gold if the player is in the secret map of DOOM II: No Rest For The Living.
  • When the flashkeys CVAR is on:
    • Flashing keycards and skull keys are now positioned correctly in the alternate widescreen HUD.
    • Improvements have been made to flashing keycards and skull keys in the status bar when the player tries to open a BOOM-compatible door that requires all six keys.
  • A bug is fixed whereby the amount of armor the player had was positioned incorrectly in the alternate widescreen HUD in some instances.
  • Improvements have been made to the console’s background when the player has an invulnerability power-up or the r_textures CVAR is off.
  • The number of monsters left to kill in a map, displayed in the automap when the am_playerstats CVAR is on, is now always correct after loading a savegame.

  • These changes have been made to vanilla mode toggled using the vanilla CCMD:
    • The +strafe action is now bound to mouse2 control again, allowing the player to strafe with the mouse, and to also double-click the button to use doors and switches.
    • The speed the player can move forward and back, and strafe left and right, has been reduced.
  • Improvements have been made to the alternate widescreen HUD when the r_hud_translucency CVAR is off and either the r_textures CVAR is also off or the player has an invulnerability power-up.
