This means that a tex_t object is passed in instead of just raw bytes
and width and height, but it means the texture can specify whether it's
flipped or uses BGR instead of RGB. This fixes the upside down
screenshots for vulkan.
This fixes (*ahem*) the vulkan renderer segfaulting when attempting to
take a screenshot. However, the image is upside down. Also, remote
snapshots and demo capture are broken for the moment.
QFS_NextFilename was renamed to QFS_NextFile to reflect the fact it now
returns a QFile pointer for the newly created file (as well as the
name). This necessitated updating WritePNG to take a file pointer
instead of a file name, with the advantage that WritePNGqfs is no longer
necessary and callers have much more control over the creation of the
file.
This makes QFS_NextFile much more secure against file system race
conditions and attacks (at least in theory). If nothing else, it will
make it more robust in a multi-threaded environment.
QF currently uses unique file names for screenshots and server-side
demos (and remote snapshots), but they're generally useful.
QFS_NextFilename has been filling this role, but it is highly insecure
in its current implementation. This is the first step to taking care of
that.
clang doesn't like the same variable name being used in nested
expression statements, so give the "safety" variables in reused macros
semi-meaningful (based on macro name) tails to keep them separate.
gcc and clang have rather different swizzle builtins, but both do a nice
job of optimizing the intuitive initializer swizzle (I think gcc 8(?)
didn't do such a good job thus my use of __builtin_shuffle).
Viewport and FOV updates are now separate so updating one doesn't cause
recalculations of the other. Also, perspective setup is now done
directly from the tangents of the half angles for fov_x and fov_y making
the renderers independent of fov/aspect mode. I imagine things are a bit
of a mess with view size changes, and especially screen size changes
(not supported yet anyway), and vulkan winds up updating its projection
matrices every frame, but everything that's expected to work does
(vulkan errors out for fisheye or warp due to frame buffer creation not
being supported yet).
Definitely not something for the renderer to care about directly (ie, at
most, a post-process filter setting or palette update, which is how it
actually is currently).
I meant to do this a while ago but forgot about it. Things are a bit of
a mess in that the renderer knows too much about entities, but
eventually the renderer will know about only things to render (meshes,
particles, etc).
The quake-specific enums are now in the client header, and the particle
system now has a gravity field rather than getting it from
vid_render_data (which I hope to eventually get rid of entirely).
r_refdef is really meant for holding the various screen "constants" for
the software renderer rather than the more generic scene stuff. All the
fields referenced by the low level rendering code (especially assembly)
have been moved to the beginning of the struct (and nicely fit within 64
bytes). The other fields should be moved elsewhere, but not this commit.
On top of that, R_ViewChanged is much easier to read, and there are
fewer static globals.
Of course, it's not as correct as glsl or sw due to using polygons and
uvs rather than a fragment shader (not that such is out of the question
since GL 3.0 is requested, but I don't feel like getting shaders going
just for a couple of post-processing effects in an obsolete renderer).
While it's not where I want it to be, it at least now no longer messes
with frame buffer binding or the view ports. This involved switching
around buffers in D_WarpScreen so that the main buffer could be bound
before post-processing.
The code dealing with state is a bit of a mess, but everything is
working nicely. Get around 400fps when all 6 faces need to be rendered
(no surprise: it should be about 1/6 of that for normal rendering). The
messy state handling code did not come as a surprise as I suspected
there were various mistakes in my scene rendering "recipe", and fisheye
highlighted them nicely (I'm sure getting this stuff working in Vulkan
will highlight even more issues).
Finally, after a decade :P Looks pretty good, too, and is (almost)
properly scaled to the resolution (almost because the effect is a little
squashed, but I think the sw renderer does the same).
Again, gl/vulkan not working yet (on the assumption that sw would be
trickier).
Fisheye overrides water warp because updating the projection map every
frame is far too expensive.
I've added a post-process pass to the interface in order to hide the
implementation details, but I'm not sure I'm happy about how the
multi-pass rendering for cube maps is handled (or having the frame
buffers as exposed as they are), but mainly because Vulkan will make
implementation interesting.
For now, OpenGL and Vulkan renderers are broken as I focused on getting
the software renderer working (which was quite tricky to get right).
This fixes a couple of issues: the segfault when warping the screen (due
to the scene rendering move invalidating the warp buffer), and warp
always having 320x200 resolution. There's still the problem of the
effect being too subtle at high resolution, but that's just a matter of
updating the tables and tweaking the code in D_WarpScreen.
Another issue is the Draw functions should probably write directly to
the main frame buffer or even one passed in as a parameter. This would
remove the need for binding the main buffer at the beginning and end of
the frame.
Its guts have been moved to D_Init temporarily while I work on the
frame buffer design. This is actually a big part of that work as it
moves most of the frame buffer creation into the one place, making it
easier to ensure I get all the sub-buffers and caches created.
I think the widespread use of recalc_refdef (and force_fullscreen) was
the result of a rushed merge of the renderer and video code (I do seem
to remember sprinkling them around). This cleans the two out of the
client code.
Other than the view model (undecided on the approach) this has
R_RenderView pretty much pulled out of the low level renderers. With
this, I'll be able to focus on scene handling for a bit then getting
shadows and fisheye working (again for fisheye).
r_screen isn't really the right place, but it gets the scene rendering
out of the low-level renderers and will make it easier to sort out
later, and hopefully easier to figure out a good design for vulkan.
The change to using separate per-model-type entity queues resulted in
the lighting vector used for alias and iqm models being in an ephemeral
location (in the shared setup_lighting function's stack frame). This
resulted in the model rendering code getting a garbage vector due to it
being overwritten by another stack frame. What I don't get is why the
garbage varied from run to run for the same demo (demo2, the first scrag
behind the start door showed the bad lighting nicely), which made
tracking down the offending commit (and thus the code) rather
troublesome, though once I found it, it was a bit of a face-palm moment.
Move r_pcurrentvertbase into the sw renderer, cleaning up gl's use of
(not really needed there). Not ready to move r_bsp into the main bin yet
as there are linking issues since only the low-level code references any
of its symbols.
While the scheme of using our own allocated did work just fine, fisheye
rendering uses glGenTextures which caused a texture id clash and thus
invalid operations (the cube map texture happened to be the same as the
console background texture). Sure, I could have just "fixed" the fisheye
init code, but this brings gl closer in line with glsl (which makes
extensive use of glGenTextures and glDeleteTextures). This doesn't fix
any texture leaks gl has (plenty, I imagine), but it's a step in the
right direction.
Finally. I never liked it (felt bad adding it in the first place), and
it has caused confusion with function and global variable names, but it
did let me get the render plugins working.
This moves the common camera setup code out of the individual drivers,
and completely removes vup/vright/vpn from the non-software renderers.
This has highlighted the craziness around AngleVectors with it putting
+X forward, -Y right and +Z up. The main issue with this is it requires
a 90 degree pre-rotation about the Z axis to get the camera pointing in
the right direction, and that's for the native sw renderer (vulkan needs
a 90 degree pre-rotation about X, and gl and glsl need to invert an
axis, too), though at least it's just a matrix swizzle and vector
negation. However, it does mean the camera matrices can't be used
directly.
Also rename vpn to vfwd (still abbreviated, but fwd is much clearer in
meaning (to me, at least) than pn (plane normal, I guess, but which
way?)).
I'd been considering it for a while, but in the end, all the issues it
presented made me decide it wasn't worth merging and was never really
worth keeping: it was a neat proof of concept but of little actual use,
especially now everyone either has an OK GPU or would want to stick to
8-bit rendering anyway (sorry L-Havoc).
However, both it and my merge work are preserved in git history :)
I got tired of having to maintain two separate software renderers, but
didn't want to just nuke sw32, so its core changes are merged into sw.
Alias model rendering is broken, but I know exactly what's wrong and how
to fix it, just need to take care due to asm.
So far, in gl and glsl, but viewposition is much clearer than r_origin
(despite being the same thing), and modelorg is just confusing (I think
it's the view position relative to the current model).
GL still has its own functions for enabling and disabling fog while
rendering, but GLSL doesn't need such (thanks to the shaders), nor will
vulkan (and the software renderers don't support fog).
This is a step towards high-level unification of the renderers, as far
as possible keeping only actual low-level implementation details in the
individual renderers (some higher level stuff, eg shadows, is expected
to be per-renderer as some things are just not feasible to implement in
all renderers). However, the idea is to move the high-level
functionality into scene rendering.
Only CaptureBGR is per-renderer as the rest of the screenshot code uses
it to do the actual capture (which is target dependent). Vulkan is
currently broken due to capture being an asynchronous process and the
rest of the code expecting capture to be synchronous (also, bgr vs rgb).
The best thing is all renderers now write the same format (currently
png).
While there's currently only the one still, this will allow the entities
to be multiply queued for multi-pass rendering (eg, shadows). As the
avoidance of putting an entity in the same queue more than once relies
on the entity id, all entities now come from the scene (which is stored
in cl_world in the client code for nq and qw), thus the extensive
changes in the clients.
The root transform of each hierarchy can be extracted from the first
transform of the list in the hierarchy, so no information is lost. The
main reason for the change is I discovered (obvious in hindsight) that
deleting root transforms was O(n) due to keeping them in an array, thus
the use of a linked list (I don't expect a hierarchy to be in more than
one such list), and I didn't want the transforms to be in a linked list.
While I doubt the difference is all that significant, this should speed
up entity rendering because it cuts out a lot of branching, and
eliminates scanning the same list multiple times only to not do anything
for large chunks of the list.
Since transforms now know the scene to which they belong, and they know
when they are root and when not, getting the transform code to manage
the scene roots is the best way to keep the list of root transforms
consistent.
It's a lot easier to read (and see the difference between modes 2 and 3)
with all the ifs removed, and the state is properly is chasestate_t now
(though not handled properly on level reset etc).
The more advanced modes are rather broken (continuous spinning), but
they may have been for a while. The bulk of the various changes were due
to renaming viewstate's origin and angles to make their meaning more
explicit.
They've been near-identical for years, now they're only one. It proved
necessary to start merging the HUD code which for now is just a few cvar
declarations (not even init), but that should be a separate set of
commits.
It holds the data for a basic 3d camera (transform, fov, near and far
clip). Not used yet as there is much work to be done in cleaning up the
client code.
Handling of view angles is a little hacky at the moment, but this gets
the chase camera code and most of the common input code into one place,
which will make cleaning up the camera code much easier.
Regardless of whether the sky is spinning or not, the matrix needs to be
updated with the current origin in order to get the direction vector
right in the shader. Also, it's in the update that the required x-y
plane rotation gets in so the skies move in the correct direction.
This actually has at least two benefits: the transform id is managed by
the scene and thus does not need separate management by the Ruamoko
wrapper functions, and better memory handling of the transform objects.
Another benefit that isn't realized yet is that this is a step towards
breaking the renderers free of quake and quakeworld: although the
clients don't actually use the scene yet, it will be a good place to
store the rendering information (functions to run, etc).
I've run into a bit of an issue with transform management (really, just
need to make them owned by the scene, but that means creating a scene
for quake and quakeworld).
This is the bulk of the work for recording the resource pointer with
with builtin data. I don't know how much of a difference it makes for
most things, but it's probably pretty big for qwaq-curses due to the
very high number of calls to the curses builtins.
Closes#26
It's not enforced a this stage, and it would be easy enough to handle,
but it turns out all the standard quake and quakeworld progs never used
... for the print functions: the behavior of PF_VarString was
undocumented and so... tough :P.
It now takes the function name to print in error message (passed on to
PR_Sprintf) and the argument number of the format string. The variable
arguments (in ...) are assumed to be immediately after the format
argument.
With the return buffer in progs_t, it could not be addressed by the
progs on 64-bit machines (this was intentional, actually), but in order
to get obj_msg_sendv working properly, I needed a way to "bounce" the
return address of a calling function to the called function. The
cleanest solution I could think of was to add a mode to the with
instruction allowing the return pointer to be loaded into a register and
then calling the function with a 0 offset for the return value but using
the relevant register (next few commits). Testing promptly segfaulted
due to the 64-bit offset not fitting into a 32-bit value.
The plan is to use the types to extract the number of parameters for a
selector when it is necessary to know the count. However, it'll probably
become useful for something else alter (these things seem to always do
so).
It's currently only 4 (or even 3 for v6) words, but this fixes false
positives when checking for null pointers in Ruamoko progs due to
pr_return pointing to the return buffer and thus outside the progs
memory map resulting in an impossible to exceed value.
Thanks to the size of the type encoding being explicit in the encoding,
anything that tries to read the encodings without expecting the width
will simply skip over the width, as it is placed after the ev type in
the encoding.
Any code that needs to read both the old encodings and the new can check
the size of the basic encodings to see if the width field is present.
