It seems clang defaults to unsigned for enums. Interestingly, gcc was ok
with the checks being either way. I guess gcc treats enums that *can* be
unsigned as DWIM.
Still work with gcc, of course, and I still need to fix them properly,
but now they're actually slightly easier to find as they all have vec_t
and FIXME on the same line.
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).
The quake-specific enums are now in the client header, and the particle
system now has a gravity field rather than getting it from
vid_render_data (which I hope to eventually get rid of entirely).
I think the widespread use of recalc_refdef (and force_fullscreen) was
the result of a rushed merge of the renderer and video code (I do seem
to remember sprinkling them around). This cleans the two out of the
client code.
GL still has its own functions for enabling and disabling fog while
rendering, but GLSL doesn't need such (thanks to the shaders), nor will
vulkan (and the software renderers don't support fog).
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.
It turns out cam_controls is for pointing the player model in the
direction of movement rather than controlling the camera (I should add
proper camera controls).
They no longer spin like crazy. I don't know how, but I must have broken
something over the years as I'm sure Seth had the code working (and I
seem to remember seeing it working). In the process, clean up a lot of
the angle mess.
It's a lot easier to read (and see the difference between modes 2 and 3)
with all the ifs removed, and the state is properly is chasestate_t now
(though not handled properly on level reset etc).
The more advanced modes are rather broken (continuous spinning), but
they may have been for a while. The bulk of the various changes were due
to renaming viewstate's origin and angles to make their meaning more
explicit.
They've been near-identical for years, now they're only one. It proved
necessary to start merging the HUD code which for now is just a few cvar
declarations (not even init), but that should be a separate set of
commits.
Handling of view angles is a little hacky at the moment, but this gets
the chase camera code and most of the common input code into one place,
which will make cleaning up the camera code much easier.
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).
This takes care of the global variables to a point (there is still the
global struct shared between the non-vulkan renderers), but it also
takes care of glsl's points-only rendering.
After yesterday's crazy marathon editing all the particles files, and
starting to do another big change to them today, I realized that I
really do need to merge them down. All the actual spawning is now in the
client library (though particle insertion will need to be moved). GLSL
particle rendering is semi-broken in that it now does only points (until
I come up with a way to select between points and quads (probably a
context object, which I need anyway for Vulkan)).
This has the advantage of getting entity_t out of the particle system,
and much easier to read math. Also, it served as a nice test for my
particle physics shaders (implemented the ideas in C). There's a lot of
code that needs merging down: all but the actual drawing can be merged.
There's some weirdness with color ramps, but I'll look into that later.
Id's binding of escape to togglemenu interfered with the hard-coding
(want escape to togglemenu (or console as a fallback) no matter what).
This idea was part of mercury's original design, too.
This allows id1/qw config files, and to a certain extent scripts, to
work with the new binding system. It does highlight just how limited the
original system was (many keys could not bound).
Mouse axis input does not work yet as that needs a little more work to
support +strafe and +mlook.
The transforms aren't actually freed at the end (more work), but at
least they aren't lost any more, though one is still lost for the
viewent (weapon). The obvious fix didn't work.
Still "some" more to go: a pile to do with transforms and temporary
entities, and a nasty one with host_cbuf. There's also all the static
block-alloc lists :/
There's still some cleanup to do, but everything seems to be working
nicely: `make -j` works, `make distcheck` passes. There is probably
plenty of bitrot in the package directories (RPM, debian), though.
The vc project files have been removed since those versions are way out
of date and quakeforge is pretty much dependent on gcc now anyway.
Most of the old Makefile.am files are now Makemodule.am. This should
allow for new Makefile.am files that allow local building (to be added
on an as-needed bases). The current remaining Makefile.am files are for
standalone sub-projects.a
The installable bins are currently built in the top-level build
directory. This may change if the clutter gets to be too much.
While this does make a noticeable difference in build times, the main
reason for the switch was to take care of the growing dependency issues:
now it's possible to build tools for code generation (eg, using qfcc and
ruamoko programs for code-gen).
