After merging the CD enabling CVAR they had the same default (off) as Blood which is wrong.
This also addresses other music related issues, like not properly cycling through the RR music.
Just replaced with a linear array - for a hash table indexed with a string to be efficient, a much larger amount of data is needed than 20 or 30 entries.
This is also hardly the kind of data where losing a microsecond for performing the search matters.
This eliminates another piece of hideous code.
This commit also moves the memory error handler to the common code, so that all games can call it if triggered.
This needs to be replaced with the game independent ZDoom version and hooked up properly, but it of low priority because it's a multiplayer only feature.
* removed old sound loading code, which was the last bit to use cacheAllocateBlock which is also gone now.
* cleanup of player sound code. All game side tracking of the sound resources has been removed.
does not compile yet.
* reverb/echo is not yet implemented, so there's two stub functions for now.
* RTS needs to be done differently, because the sound engine cannot play raw buffers without any control data.
- added command line options to load the original file dump of both mods in the game directory.
- both also require loading additional non-standard-named .art files
This was only used for displaying the name for user maps, everything else was using other means of getting the data already, and even here currentLevel is better suited.
* removed temporary placeholder content from string init function. All this gets properly read from definition files now.
* preinitialize a few quotes that are used for status display purposes and are needed in all games
* only use the global episode name table in Blood to avoid redundancy
* let SW's swcustom parser write to the global tables instead of local ones.
This was one huge mess where nothing fit together.
Also added an enhancement that the CD Audio boss theme tracks are also played when CD music is generally off, because these have no equivalent in MIDI. This needs to be checked if it's stylistically ok, though.
Sound is only partially functional, video mode completely nonfunctional, but it makes no sense adjusting them to the current backend code when it's due for replacement.
Reverted this to a sane setting, as it was in the original games and in all other games I have ever seen, i.e. there is a global setting to enable mouse view, and a button to manually trigger it. The toggle can be easily handled by flipping the CVAR directly.
The main problem here was that it triggered a few cases for mouse-less gameplay in the default case with a mouse present, because the mouseaim CVAR was no longer what the game expected.
This misguided change seems to have originated in JFDuke but by now had propagated to all the other games as well, the code was in all 4 frontends.
- hooked up all front ends with a generic message printing function so that common code can access the native message displays. This is needed for consolidation of some input actions which are mostly identical but print messages.
- preparations for a generic message system.
This was consolidated for both EDuke and RedNukem frontends, put into a class with strict access control and the length limit was lifted.
The new class will eventually allow better localization control.
Now this was magnitudes easier than the EDuke menu - NBlood's menu is actually clean and usable code but still nothing compared to a unified menu system.
This was only a crutch to let the input interface work with the original menus.
Now that the one in Blood is gone, all the conditions are no longer relevant. (Shadow Warrior never got far enough to implement this)
This was some meticulously preserved relic of bad old DOS times used to block OS facilities to close an app.
Since this has been worked around at a lower level already the variable was essentially without function but some quite bad code depended on it.
This mainly means being able to use the generic font.
This also adds more generalization to the menu sound handling, plus an option to turn menu sound off. This is motivated by the pig sounds which RR uses in the menu.
* removed some redundant functionality (e.g. Shift-F5 to change - use the console for that!)
* removed a few more leftover parts of the old music system
* savegames should not do more than resuming the music at the point of saving. (DN3D and RR only so far. Blood to be done.)
* handle music enabling/disabling in the backend, which simply knows better what to do. This was only working in the menu, so changing the CVAR had no effect.
* implemented single image screens
* implemented skeleton of the image scroller
* added RR-specific definitions to the menus (need to copy and adjust d_menu.cpp)
* added definitions for credits screens.
Not tested yet!
* Added a JSON-based header to the savegames so that the unified menu can read from a common data source.
* moved loading and saving of frontend independent data to the wrapper so that support is automatic.
I have no idea how this is supposed to work, but all it does is create corrupt images, so for now it reverts to the software renderer which generates working 320x200 images.
Since the code is extremely volatile I changed the setup so that the save is a zip file with the regular snapshot plus all added data as separate entries.
This allows compressing everything properly without savegame breaking interference.
Blood does not yet load its savegames, need to check.
Conmsidering how hard it is in Duke Nukem based games to modify the level music, there is now a setting for this in mussetting.txt to make the job easier and even allow setting level music in Redneck Rampage without replacing game data.
- draw fullscreen blends below the console.
- moved all mouse event processing out of the SDL backend to D_PostEvent.
- removed all remaining code for dealing with mouse buttons directly.
Unfortunately necessary because Ion Fury savegames store 120 GB(!!) of data, mostly zeros.
Unlike the old method, this compresses the entire savegame as one block using a ZLib stream so it should be a lot more efficient now.
This broke the savegame reader which still assumed it was working on compressed data. Everything will now take the uncompressed path.
In-stream optional compression is not a good idea anyway, this can and should be done better.
Also: Why is the savegame format architecture dependent???
* moved the ASCII conversion hackery in SDLayer to a subfunction because this made things just messy.
* integrated the keyboard callback's functionality directly into inputState for consolidation purposes. This was yet another independent layer in the keyboard management.
* hook up D_PostEvent as the central place to dispatch keyboard input. This is now the only function that is getting called from the backend and a major prerequiside for swapping out the backend for GZDoom's.
Todo: Route mouse input through that, too.
Unfortunately this means that the keybinding menus in all games except Blood are shot to shit right now because of how they passed the data on to its destination.
These menus are not fixable, this will have to wait until the replacement is up.
That's one more third party dependency down.
Not only are two hashing algorithms redundant, there was also a large size discrepancy: SuperFastHash is 3 kb of source code while xxhash is 120kb and generally extremely awful code.
It was easy to make a choice here. None of the use cases require this kind of performance tweaking, the longest hashed block of data is a 768 byte palette.
* moved the binding commands to osd.cpp. They were in the global namespace already and this way everything to be tossed out is in the same place when the time comes.
* removed support for the OSDs native CVARs. The only ones left were some internal ones I won't need until this code can be replaced.
* same for the custpmization code the games added. Duke Nukem was the only one anyway to have a decent font for it.
- disabled the user maps menu because it is hopelessly dependent on functionality that cannot be fixed. Better wait until the menu refactor to do it right - it'd be a waste of time fixing the current menus.
* saving of demos and savegames no longer mindlessly writes to the mod directory. All such access is now being rerouted through the special paths interface so that the game data can reside in write protected locations.
* refactored all occurences of klistpath except fnlist_getnames.
* do not allow CON scripts to write to arbitrary files. This is a massive exploit and can be used to cause real damage if someone knows how to play this thing - it's far easier than people may think! It will now write any such data to a special section in the main config which is safe and cannot be manipulated to write to random locations on the hard drive.
- consolidated the 3 identical S_OpenAudio implementations. The replacement code is disabled for the time being because it needs a rewrite. The replacement logic is uses is a bit too volatile.
- removed the old GRP scan code.
* reroute several error conditions to I_Error.
* removed some soon-to-be obsolete GRP loading code.
* explicitly trigger the SetDefaults script events which depended on side effects from the config implementation.
* removed the nonsensical file system switch. All this does is create instabilities because it is non-obvious from where data is loaded. If a resource is mounted, it should be checked for content no matter what. While this may affect the stray weird mod out there it is a necessity if we want to allow transparent project repackaging.
When doing this during startup it can be done by regular cleanup measures.
This also moves two larger chunks of networking code out of game.cpp.
Nevertheless, the fact that enet is a very dirty library which directly depends on Windows types is a big problem because it bleeds Windows definitions everywhere thanks to poor abstraction in all relevant layers.
The Steam/GOG path getters were taken out of the frontends.
This also switches the Windows directory reader touse the wide string version to get Unicode file names.
Some paths were added to the config file instead of hard coding them.
Some part are not done yet, and the file system data is currently ignored - there's no way to properly set this up with the file system code Build came with.
This removes all unused parts of the implementation and moves the rest to the InputState class for easier replacement later. All MACT is doing now here is to call the UpdateStatus function, the internal workings are no longer relevant.
