The config is a pre-parsed property list. Currently unsupported by
anything but Vulkan (but only a warning is given, not a hard error at
this stage), and Vulkan doesn't use it yet.
This takes care of the double free and also cleans up a lot of the skin
api. However, the gl renderer lost top/bottom colors (for now). Vulkan
skins still don't work yet.
That is, those with more than 65520 vertices. Not properly supported for
sw or gl, and glsl isn't rendering properly for some reason (renderdoc
does see the meshes, though, so maybe depth or winding issues).
The main goal of this change was to make it easier to tell when a
hierarchy has been deleted, but as a side benefit, it got rid of the use
of PR_RESMAP. Also, it's easy to track the number of hierarchies.
Unfortunately, it showed how brittle the component side of the ECS is
(scene and canvas registries assumed their components were the first (no
long the case), thus the sweeping changes).
Centerprint doesn't work (but it hasn't for a while).
Seems to work well. The other renderers have stubs because I don't feel
like implementing clipping for them. The gl and glsl wouldn't be too
difficult (need to handle the draw queues), but sw needs a fair bit of
work and I'm not sure it's worth the effort.
While the gl renderer does (or did) have it's attempt at shadows, the
others don't even try, thus the onlyshadows-marked player model doesn't
work so well (looks rather goofy seeing the arms like that).
While the insertion of dlights into the BSP might wind up being overly
expensive, the automatic management of the component pool cleans up the
various loops in the renderers.
Unfortunately, (current bug) lights on entities cause the entity to
disappear due to how the entity queue system works, and the doubled
efrag chain causes crashes when changing maps, meaning lights should be
on their own entities, not additional components on entities with
visible models.
Also, the vulkan renderer segfaults on dlights (fix incoming, along with
shadows for dlights).
Really? More to clean up before (vulkan) bsp rendering is thread-safe?
However, R_MarkLeaves was pretty close: just oldviewleaf and
visframecount, but that's still too much. Also, the reliance on
r_refdef.worldmodel irked me.
I never liked it, but with C2x coming out, it's best to handle bools
properly. I haven't gone through all the uses of int as bool (I'll leave
that for fixing when I encounter them), but this gets QF working with
both c2x (really, gnu2x because of raw strings).
The pic is scaled to fill the specified rect (then clipped to the
screen (effectively)). Done just for the console background for now, but
it will be used for slice-pics as well.
Not implemented for vulkan yet as I'm still thinking about the
descriptor management needed for the instanced rendering.
Making the conback rendering conditional gave an approximately 3% speed
boost to glsl with the GL stub (~12200fps to ~12550fps), for either
conback render method.
While Draw_Glyph does draw only one glyph at a time, it doesn't shape
the text every time, so is a major win for performance (especially
coupled with pre-shaped text).
And add a function to process a passage into a set of views with glyphs.
The views can be flowed: they have flow gravity and their sizes set to
contain all the glyphs within each view (nominally, words). Nothing is
tested yet, and font rendering is currently broken completely.
Font and text handling is very much part of user interface and at least
partially independent of rendering, but does fit it better with GUI than
genera UI (ie, both graphics and text mode), thus libQFgui as well as
libQFui are built in the ui directory.
The existing font related builtins have been moved into the ruamoko
client library.
In theory, it supports all the non-palette formats, but only luminance
and alpha (tex_l and tex_a) have been tested. Fixes the rather broken
glyph rendering.
Where too far is 1024 units as that is the maximum supported, or the
radius. The change to using unsigned for the distances meant the simple
checks missed the effective max dist going negative, thus leading to a
segfault.
It seemed like a good idea at the time, but it exacerbates pixel leakage
in atlas textures that have no border pixels (even in nearest sampling
modes).
Currently only for gl/glsl/vulkan. However, rather than futzing with
con_width and con_height (and trying to guess good values), con_scale
(currently an integer) gives consistent pixel scaling regardless of
window size.
I had forgotten that the cl structs in nq and qw were different layouts,
which resulted in qw's sbar/hud being quite broken. Rather than messing
with the structs, I decided it would be far better in the long run to
clean up sbar's access to the cl struct and the few other nq/qw specific
globals it used. There are still plenty of bugs to fix, but now almost
everything is in the one place.
It seems this isn't needed any more (not sure why) as both glsl and
vulkan are happy without it. Also unsure why moving to ECS made gl and
sw change behavior regarding rendering the test models in my scene.
While the libraries are probably getting a little out of hand, the
separation into its own directory is probably a good thing as an ECS
should not be tied to scenes. This should make the ECS more generally
useful.
This fixes the segfault due to the world entity not actually existing,
without adding a world entity. It takes advantage of the ECS in that the
edge renderer needs only the world matrix, brush model pointer, and the
animation frame number (which is just 0/1 for brush models), thus the
inherent SOA of ECS helps out, though benchmarking is needed to see if
it made any real difference.
With this, all 4 renderers are working again.
Since entity_t has a pointer to the registry owning the entity, there's
no need to access a global to get at the registry. Also move component
getting closer to where it's used.
This puts the hierarchy (transform) reference, animation, visibility,
renderer, active, and old_origin data in separate components. There are
a few bugs (crashes on grenade explosions in gl/glsl/vulkan, immediately
in sw, reasons known, missing brush models in vulkan).
While quake doesn't really need an ECS, the direction I want to take QF
does, and it does seem to have improved memory bandwidth a little
(uncertain). However, there's a lot more work to go (especially fixing
the above bugs), but this seems to be a good start.
qwaq doesn't supply a backtile pic, so Draw_TileClear in the gl and glsl
renderers would segfault when qwaq's window width changed due to some
back-tile being drawn.
This breaks console scaling for now (con_width and con_height are gone),
but is a major step towards window resize support as console stuff
should never have been in viddef_t in the first place.
The client screen init code now sets up a screen view (actually the
renderer's scr_view) that is passed to the client console so it can know
the size of the screen. The same view is used by the status bar code.
Also, the ram/cache/paused icon drawing is moved into the client screen
update code. A bit of duplication, but I do plan on merging that
eventually.
This is intended for the built-in 8x8 bitmap characters and quake's
"conchars", but could potentially be used for any simple (non-composed
characters) mono-spaced font. Currently, the buffers can be created,
destroyed, cleared, scrolled vertically in either direction, and
rendered to the screen in a single blast.
One of the reasons for creating the buffer is to make it so scaling can
be supported in the sw renderer.
It's implemented only in the Vulkan renderer, partly because there's a
lot of experimenting going on with it, but the glyphs do get transferred
to the GPU (checked in render doc). No rendering is done yet: still
thinking about whether to do a quick-and-dirty test, or to add HarfBuzz
immediately, and the design surrounding that.
The software renderer uses Bresenham's line slice algorithm as presented
by Michael Abrash in his Graphics Programming Black Book Special Edition
with the serial numbers filed off (as such, more just so *I* can read
the code easily), along with the Chen-Sutherland line clipping
algorithm. The other renderers were more or less trivial in comparison.
This does mean that the gl and sw renderers can no longer call
S_ExtraUpdate, but really, they shouldn't be anyway. And I seem to
remember it not really helping (been way too long since quake ran that
slowly for me).
The gl water warp ones have been useless since very early on due to not
doing water warp in gl (vertex warping just didn't work well), and the
recent water warp implementation doesn't need those hacks. The rest of
the removed flags just aren't needed for anything. SURF_DRAWNOALPHA
might get renamed, but should be useful for translucent bsp surfaces
(eg, vines in ad_tears).
