Only as scalars, I still need to think about what to do for vectors and
quaternions due to param size issues. Also, doubles are not yet
guaranteed to be correctly aligned.
Really, when cl_nodelta is in effect (eg, .qwd demo recording and thus
playback). QW now uses the new shared entity state block as I'd intended.
Thanks to the cleanup of ghost entities (ie, entities that have been
removed but continue to be rendered), glsl overkill has gone from 157 to
163 fps :)
td_lastframe needs to be a float in qw. It seems the meaning changed from
nq to qw, but that's rather bogus. I need to look further into juat what's
going on, but at least now timedemo works.
For certain values of "fix" ;). Both are brought back to life but
idealpitch is never set (always 0) and veiwheight is set in V_RenderView().
However, this brings the rest of the code in cl_view.c just that little bit
closer to merged :)
Now it doesn't matter if you get 22 fps or 72, you jump the same height,
which actually happens to be slightly higher than the previous 72fps jump.
Effectively, you jump the height you would if you got infinite fps ;)
Still, nothing will work: no plugins are loaded and they're all broken
anyway.
glx, sgl, glslx etc are going away, just the basics will be built: fbdev
(probably go away eventually), sdl, x11 and hopefully someday win. That's
actually the only reason anything links.
This has several benifits:
o The silly issue with alias model pitches being backwards is kept out
of the renderer (it's a quakec thing: entites do their pitch
backwards, but originally, only alias models were rotated. Hipnotic
did brush entity rotations in the correct direction).
o Angle to frame vector conversions are done only when the entity's
angles vector changes, rather than every frame. This avoids a lot of
unnecessary trig function calls.
o Once transformed, an entity's frame vectors are always available.
However, the vectors are left handed rather than right handed (ie,
forward/left/up instead of forward/right/up): just a matter of
watching the sign. This avoids even more trig calls (flag models in
qw).
o This paves the way for merging brush entity surface rendering with the
world model surface rendering (the actual goal of this patch).
o This also paves the way for using quaternions to represent entity
orientation, as that would be a protocol change.
It seems that QW already allowed explode-box jumping, but this makes code a
little more consistent. Still need to figure out what to do about the
player physics code: the client prediction is wrong, though the server gets
it right (before the change).
