GL Quake was weird, culling front faces. Partly understandable, since
Quake's front order is clockwise and GL's default order is
counter-clockwise. However, since the order can be specified, that should
be done instead. Thus, specify the winding order as clockwise (for quake's
data), set culling for back-face removal, and then mess with the winding
direction in the mirror and fish-eye code.
The links are now in "instance surfaces". For non-instanced models (world,
doors, plats etc (ie, world and its sub-models)), there will be one
instance surface per model surface. However, for instanced models (ammo
boxes etc), there will be many, dynamically allocated (not yet
implemented). This commit gets the static instance surfaces working.
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.
My changes:
Emit normals if truform is enabled.
Attempt to avoid 0,0,0 normals (makes lighting & tesselation unhappy).
Fix some (ancient) apparent bugs in GetAliasFrameVerts16().
Clamp minlight, instead of adding it.
Apply colormod as glColor, rather than adding it to emission, to prevent QSG2
issues with fullbrights.
Rearrange init code, and don't go quite as wild with responsiveness to lights.
Material & lightmode settings will need tweaking & testing to work well on all
cards. Feedback needed there.
sane now. Also optimize QSG2 color handling, and fix some QSG2 bugs. Not that
anyone cares, nobody uses it anyways.
Should be faster, but isn't here. *grmbl*
Now just have one (known) issue with bmodels with fullbright textures not
rendering their base texture. Floating fullbrights are nifty!
Also a number of optimizations, which need wider performance testing.
support for BSP models, until they can be fixed. gl_multitexture should now
actually be a speedup!
NOTE: Some OpenGL implementations have trouble with the texture function
used. 3Dfx Voodoo 1/2 are known to have this trouble. I don't know how to fix
this, or even if it can be fixed. :/
