One common use for a mesh having multiple UV maps is when combining several
mesh objects into one: the base UV map is the result of joining the meshes
(and will be a right mess of overlapping UV islands), but an additional UV
map is then setup as a copy of the first but with the islands re-packed so
nothing overlaps. The export script now searches for the active UV map and
uses that for both UV coordinates and the skin texture (when none is
specified).
If there's no export script, or the export script has no frame information,
animation data will be collected by running through blender frames 1 to the
current frame (inclusive). Each frame will be exported as a single frame
rather than as members of a frame group.
I'd forgotten I hadn't implemented exporting vertex normals. While I've
modified things for making better use of blender's tools and avoiding the
unnecessary use of objects, the code is taken from the ajmdl blender 2.4
export script.
F6 is fantastic, until you hit it by mistake after dieing when you meant
to hit F9 (I've done that way too often). quick.sav is still the last file
written via F6 (so F9 is unaffected), but now the previous quick.sav
becomes quick1.sav. Up to 5 (currently) backups will be kept: quick1 is
the newest, quick5 the oldest. A menu for accessing the backups has been
added as a sub-menu of the load menu.
This fixes the broken intermissions. There might be a better fix, but this
will do for now because the one alternative solution (getting
V_CalcIntermissionRefdef to poke directly at entity states) is not
something I particularly want to do.
Certain versions of qcc (fteqcc comes to mind :P) strip the names from
builtin functions. This breaks saved games that happen to have a builtin
function in a saved function variable. The earlier builtin name
reconstruction patch happened to fix the writing of save games for such
progs, and this one fixes the reading.
The setup had been lost at some stage, thus shadows were always directly
under the entity. Unlike the original quake shadow code, the vector is
correctly transformed into the entity's space.
I finally found the cause of Despair's gl shadows non-rendering+segfault...
the shadow code expected triangle fans and strips but was getting simple
triangles. Oops.
