This fixes the flickering status bar for those renderers that use
scr_copyeverything correctly. sw and sw32. glsl flukes out by not touching
scr_copyeverything and gl is wrong by always clearing it to 0 and never
setting it later.
The cshift is now drawn before centerprint, console and the loading plaque.
Unfortunately, due to something odd going on, the sbar stuff is drawn by
the console rather than by Sbar_Draw :P.
Need to up the precision by one due to the difference between g and e, but
much prettier. Might need to rename that function :P I wish I'd thought to
check if g would work, but thanks to divVerent for the suggestion.
This fixes the infinite loop in Sock's shadows mode. Thanks to Spike for
helping me with what should be happening. However, we're still uncertain
about just how the thinktime/sv.time logic should behave.
It turns out gcc has a way to force functions to inline even when it thinks
doing so would not be a good idea (call to a modest sized function unlikely).
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.
Note that this is only a soft-limit and prevents excessive beams when only
one is expected. If more beams are desirned, just use 0 for the entity
number.
Really, when cl_nodelta is in effect (eg, .qwd demo recording and thus
playback). QW now uses the new shared entity state block as I'd intended.
Thanks to the cleanup of ghost entities (ie, entities that have been
removed but continue to be rendered), glsl overkill has gone from 157 to
163 fps :)
It was a hack to help with cleaning up the renderer, but is now in the way
of merging the clients.
This happens to fix the position/angle lerping, though angles behave a
little oddly.
CL_StopPlayback was incorrectly calling Key_SetKeyDest with key_game. As
CL_SetState calls Key_SetKeyDest with the appropriate parameter,
CL_StopPlayback calling Key_SetKeyDest is actually redundate, so just
change key_game_target back to IMT_0.
NQ's client-side onground now works similarly to QW's: -1 = not on ground,
0+ = on ground (plane num?) but only 0 is used in NQ as the necessary
information is not sent over the network.
The protocol is not affected: the incoming colors byte is split into the
two fields when read from the packet. This simplifies a lot of code
elsewhere.
When the stufftext buffering was implemented, we forgot about
svc_serverdata...
While nq might normally not have the issue, I thought it best to implement
in nq, too.
nq now rejects anything that doesn't look like a .dem, and qw not only
rejects anything that looks like neither a .qwd nor a .mvd, but even
detects which one is being played by the contents rather than the file name
(foo.mvd.gz would be mis-detected as a qwd!!).
The change to nq SV_RunThink to match that in qw finally bit my bum. I
suspect it's really a bug in the honey progs (using ltime on a non-pusher),
but QF locking up is not very friendly. I want to keep the option of having
a think loop in the same frame for progs that expect it (using
self.nextthink = time), but also NQ's original method of running think
every frame. Hopefully no progs expect "self.nextthink = time" to run
every frame rather than loop within the current frame.
Now it doesn't matter if you get 22 fps or 72, you jump the same height,
which actually happens to be slightly higher than the previous 72fps jump.
Effectively, you jump the height you would if you got infinite fps ;)
The renderer now gets initialized and things sort of work (qw-client will
idle, though nothing is displayed). However, as the viddef stuff is broken,
it segs on trying to run the overkill demo.
Still, nothing will work: no plugins are loaded and they're all broken
anyway.
glx, sgl, glslx etc are going away, just the basics will be built: fbdev
(probably go away eventually), sdl, x11 and hopefully someday win. That's
actually the only reason anything links.
Just about to do a release, and I realized windows users wouldn't have any
way of checking out the new renderer. I'll add wglsl when I get a chance to
do some testing.
Most subsystems that depend on other subsystems now call the init functions
themselves. This makes for much cleaner client initialization (more work
needs to be done for the server).
The renderer should now be free of any direct access to client code. Even
3d rendering is now done via a function pointer.
The cshift code is done as a 2d screen function.
This brings NQ's physics a little closer to QW's. After studying both the
original WinQuake source and the progs source, this change should be
harmless, making very little difference. However, it does allow an
entity's think function to be called multiple times in the same frame (for
when the entity needs more time to think, but it would cause runaway loop
errors). Maybe need a "runaway think" check.
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.
There are some problems with menus and the console messing up the key_dest
state (they assume console/menu or game, nothing else), but otherwise
things seem to work.
I got rather tired of there being multiple definitions of mostly compatible
plane types (and I need a common type anyway). dplane_t still exists for
now because I want to be careful when messing with the actual bsp format.
Currently only "id", "hipnotic" and "rogue" are supported (anything else is
treated as "id"). Has no effect in quakeworld (good thing too: changing
gamedirs is a little broken).
If a tossed entity has ONGROUND set, it won't move, but if it has an upward
velocity, it can't possibly be ONGROUND, so clear the flag if the entity is
moving upwards.
This also makes functionality consistent across the platforms, such as
adding support for -dedicated to sdl based nq, and various timing
calculations are now consistent.
