Fixed "oof" sound when hitting ground while already dead. Patch #1532700 by RjY.
Ported Eternitys fix to show the "ouch" face when severly hit
Unified drawing functions, this speeds things up a bit and fixes most artifacts on small numbers and fonts in high resolution modes.
Mac OS X: Add resolution and video mode (OpenGL vs software) selection to launcher
Added rendering filters for software mode, they are configurable in a new page in general settings
Emulate some texture composition bugs
Fix more common WAD bugs that can cause crashes
Fixed random crashes caused by use of uninitialized memory
