On OSX El Capitan, there's some odd graphical glitch on the screen. Looks like an old broken NES game. It remains there all through play.

This is a known bug, but unfortunately I don't have access to any device capable of running El Capitan at the moment :(

It's really bad... Game must be very fun, but this glithes are so awful. :(
Do you plan open DoomRL sources?
Community can fix it and also support game endless.

I also have this bug. It's really sad. The weird part is that it worked perfectly the first time I played it, right after install - but the second time I started it and from that on it always does this. Reinstalling doesn't help either.
If you don't have a testing environment I can help you debug it if you would trust me with the source. (OSX dev)

What you guys could do to help out is check if the same problem happens in AliensRL - the pseudo console is created the same way as in DoomRL.

AliensRL works fine!
Some more things I noted about the bug in DoomRL:
- The artifacts only seem to be in a square in the middle of the window. If I go full screen, the edges of the window will look fine.
- The artifacts will have different colors/shapes every time I restart the game.
- Sometimes when I start it, the game works fine (no artifacts). This happens very rarely.
-
Somewhat affected. I use the same SDL as in DoomRL.

Hmm... I will do an update in the near future where I will probably upgrade the game to SDL 2.0 and OpenGL 2.1, hopefully that will resolve the problem by itself :/

Excellent. No doubt youre a pro with the frameworks now after dealing with JH. Its hard to look back at SDL 1.2 these days. And yeah, problems probably solved at that point
