It copies an entire hierarchy (minus actual entities, but I'm as yet
unsure how to proceed with them), even across scenes as the source scene
is irrelevant and the destination scene is used for creating the new
transforms.
Abyss of Pandemonium uses global ambient light a lot, but doesn't
specify it in every map (nothing extracting entities and adding a
reasonable value can't fix). I imagine some further tweaking will be
needed.
The parsing of light data from maps is now in the client library, and
basic light management is in scene. Putting the light loading code into
the Vulkan renderer was a mistake I've wanted to correct for a while.
The client code still needs a bit of cleanup, but the basics are working
nicely.
This replaces *_NewMap with *_NewScene and adds SCR_NewScene to handle
loading a new map (for quake) in the renderer, and will eventually be
how any new scene is loaded.
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).
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.
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.
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.
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).
Holding onto the pointer is not a good idea, and it is read-only as
direct manipulation of the world matrix is not supported. However, this
is useful for passing the matrix to the GPU.
