Until now the curtime variable was set at every call Sys_*seconds().
That's a little bit unfortunate because calls to that functions are
scattered around the code. Instead set it once every frame in
Qcommon_Frame().
Yes, this duplicates some code. But it's at least 100 times more
readable to have two distinct functions for distinct purposes instead
of about 25 #ifdef.
Having the server in an own timing zone seems to simplify things but
introduces slight timing discrepancies. The most visible effect is that
the game runs a little bit too fast, especially in the first cl_maxfps
frames.
Therefor: Remove timeframes, they're unnecessary. Track the time since
the last (client|server) frame instead and pass it to the client and
server when it's called.
This allows us to implement the global timing without an artificial
brake slowing the game unnecessary down. This is only partial working,
more changes and fixes are coming.
This is a no-op for now. We need this to get a much higher precision
when calculating the frame times. This changes the fixedtime cvar from
milli- to microseconds.
This is the same as the client does for it's realtime. It looks at least
somewhat more correct since it pevents rounding errors. And things are
simplified a litte bit since the server timing is now independent of the
global timing.
This is the same as the well known Sys_Milliseconds() but like the name
suggests with microsecond precision. To be used in the upcoming new
framecounter.
While here reimplement the same hack for baseq2/players, lost somewhere
on the way. This is just another searchpath f*ckup. For some reasons
paks have a higher priority than plain directories. We do not want that
for the maps.lst and players/ since id Software decided to put updated
versions of them directly into baseq2/...
This closes issue #217.
The big problem with the old implementation was that stdout.txt and
stderr.txt on Windows became available when nearly all the low level
initialization was already done. Regardless if the client was in
normal or in portable mode.
Solve this by scanning the command line for the string '-portable'. If
it's not found, stdout and stderr are redirected as early as possible.
If found the global variable (*sigh*) is_portable is set to true. It's
evaluated later on to set the cvar 'portable', which in turn is used
be the filesystem to decide if the home directory should be added to
the search path.
Maybe we should remove the cvar and stick to the global variable.
While at it change the maximum path length for qconsole.log from
MAX_QPATH to MAX_OSPATH. At least on my Linux laptop MAX_QPATH is
too short.
This commit is still untested on Windows!
A new linked list fs_rawPath with nodes of type fsRawPath_t is added.
The new function FS_BuildRawPath() fills it at filesystem initialization
with the raw search path directories. Later FS_BuildGenericSearchPath()
and FS_BuildGameSpecificSearchPath() use it to derive the actual search
directories.
Remove all functions that are no longer used:
* FS_AddGameDirectory()
* FS_SetGameDir()
* FS_AddHomeAsGameDirectory()
* FS_AddBinaryDirAsGameDirectory()
While at it try remove as much global variables from filesystem.c as
possible. Also fix a small, longstandig bug: The download code should
treat .zip and .pk3 files as pak files and not as normal directories.
Refactor FS_SetGamedir() into FS_BuildGameSpecificSearchPath(). The new
function removes the specialized part of the search path if necessary
and create a new specialized part based upon the given directory. It
uses the FS_AddDirToSearchpath() function added in the last commit.
This moves the code used to add a directory and it's paks to the search
path into one well defined function FS_AddDirToSearchPath(). Also create
a new function FS_BuildGenericSearchPath() that builds the generic part
of the global search path. This obsoletes several other, specialized
functions. They'll be removed in a later commit.
Resurrect support for render / refresher loadable libraries and use them to implement an experimental OpenGL 3.2 renderer. Please note that the new renderer interface is somewhat different from the original one, old render libraries will NOT work!
To be able to test if the game is running portable all checks of the
portable cvar must be done after Cvar_Init(). Instead of redirecting
stdout and stderr as early as possible, delay the redirection right
after Cvar_Init(). After this change the printf() in WinMain() aren't
printed into stdout.txt, but I guess that it isn't a big problem. All
interessting stuff like the search pathes is still there.
Rename fs_portable to portable. It's no longer filesystem specific.
Normally Q2 writes all persistent data (the configurations, saves, etc.)
into a subdirectory in the users $HOME. That can be a problem when the
game is installed onto an thumb drive or something like that. Therefor
provide a cvar fs_portable. When set to 1 the games uses it binary dir
as it's persistent storage location.
Examples:
./quake2 +set fs_portable 1
./quake2 +set basedir ~/games/quake2 +set fs_portable 1
fs_portable is _not_ saved into the config file. It must be set at
every start!
This closed issue #158.
So in all code in the reflib (ref_gl.dll/.so/.dylib) calls to
ri.Con_Printf(print_level, fmt, ...) have been replaced by calls to
R_Printf(print_level, fmt, ...) which uses ri.Com_VPrintf().
somehow all the printf()-like things in Q2 wrap each other and each
one prints into a buffer and then calls the next one with ("%s", buf).
That's not very clever and kinda annoying.
As in the end everyone calls Com_Printf() I created Com_VPrintf()
that can be called instead with the va_list.
I also added printf-format annotation to Com_Printf() and Com_DPrintf()
and fixed places where Com_Printf() was called with the wrong type.
Until now autoexec.cfg was a special case. It was read several
times, whenever the 'game' cvar was altered or when the client was
restarted. But only if it was in the right directory in the right
position of the internal search path... Remove this altogether and
replace it by an ordinary 'exec autoexec.cfg' at startup.
This may break some mods that depend on an autoexec.cfg if the user has
his own version in ~/.yq2/. Such mods should use default.cfg instead.
This closes issue #163.
especially in the intermission videos, the text looked broken, as parts
of the characters were missing.
This is because Draw_StretchRaw() converts the 320x240 video frame into
a 256x256 texture, without doing proper interpolation (just skipping
some pixels instead).
Now, if the GPU supports non-power-of-two texture sizes, the video
frames are uploaded as textures in their original size.
(Also fixed a harmless typo in common.h)
The old implementation had two problems:
* OSTYPE and ARCH are systemwide defines, overriding them may break
the global libc headers. This is a theoretical problem, I've never
seen it in praxis.
* Not all system set ARCH correctly when building in a chroot env.
For example on Linux ARCH is set to x86_64 when building in an
i386 chroot. Now the user can do something like "make YQ2ARCH=i386"
to get things right.
This is more than enough for everyone and prevents wasting CPU time.
Without this change as many client frames as possible are rendered,
Quake II uses a complete core.
For deterministic/reproducible builds (where the same source and
toolchain can be verified to produce the same binary, allowing
maliciously substituted binaries to be detected) it is desirable to
take the software's idea of the build date from the build system;
otherwise, the real-time clock at the time of building affects the
result, making it non-reproducible.
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is a distribution-neutral specification for how
to do that. It is meant to be set by meta-build systems such as
dpkg or RPM, using a date/time that is already part of the source code,
for example the date of the latest git commit, the date in
the package's debian/changelog, or the date in the RPM spec file.
See https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/ for the
specification of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, or https://reproducible-builds.org/
for more information on reproducible builds in general.
The old whitelist was a leftover from the early days of YQ2. It should
run on most / all architectures, as long SDL supports them. As suggested
by smcv in issue #138 generate the OSTYPE and ARCH defines by the build
system instead of hardcoding it.
Savegame compatibility is provided by bumping the savegame version. Old
savegames are compared against the old OSTYPE and ARCH defined, new ones
against the new defines. This compatibility code should be removed
somewhere in the distant future.
Con_DrawConsole() assumed that the version string was always 21chars
long, we changed it to allow longer strings with other lenghts.
In Unix main() we changed the code for underlining
"Yamagi Quake II $version" with === so the underlining is as long
as the underlined string.
It was a wrong (and maybe stupid) assumption, that the config dir
(~/.yq2) is always the first element of the search path. When there's
at least one pak file in the config dir, it's added at a random
location. Work around this by probing all directories. This fixes
issue #107.
The savegame list is generated by calling FS_FOpenFile() for each
possible savegame name. When a file handle is returned the savegame
exists, otherwise the savegame slot is empty. But FS_FOpenFile()
searches in every directory known to the VFS. If a savegame file
isn't found in $moddir but in baseq2, the file in baseq2 is opened
and a baseq2 savegame is displayed in the mods / addons savegame menu.
The fix is compromise between a clean solution and invasiveness:
- Refactor FS_FOpenFile() to include FS_FOpenFileRead(). FS_FOpenFile()
was used only to open read only files, limit its's possibilities to
do exactly that.
- Introduce a new flag "gamedir_only" to FS_FOpenFile(). When true
only the gamedir directories are searched and not other directories
like baseq2.
- Change all callers to FS_FOpenFile()s new signature.
- Use the new gamedir_only flag to limit the searchpath for savegames
to the gamedir.
This makes it behave a little more like -basedir in Quake 1 and
fs_basepath in ioquake3.
This lets "+set basedir" take precedence over the SYSTEMDIR,
which is useful if you have the demo and full-game data installed
in different base directories to be able to test the demo for
regressions.
This reverts commit 123e409a2e.
This commit breaks several float calculations in subtiles ways. For
example grenates drift to the left. In fact, it's another example why
I'm so hesitant to merge anything that's not a fix for a clearly
reproducable bug. This fixes#99.
should hopefully fix#93, which seemed to be caused by ^ and ` being
bound to toggleconsole in default.cfg (as shipped with Q2) *and*
in code, so it'd be called twice and cancel each other out.
It even warns if someone tries to bind those keys and includes an ugly
hack to *not* warn when it's done in default.cfg, to minimize confusion.
This work was submitted by Dmitry Antipov. We stick to macros instead of
inline functions since they're in line with the rest of the code base.
This patch removes several unused functions and tranfers most of the
rest into macros.
sounds easy, right?
Except some genius decided to save CVAR_LATCH cvars in buffers of
MAX_OSPATH length into savegames.. so just changing MAX_OSPATH
breaks savegame compatibility.
Fortunately, this assumption only matters in SV_WriteServerFile() and
SV_ReadServerFile() so I worked around it by introducing a
platform-specific LATCH_CVAR_SAVELENGTH (because MAX_OSPATH was 256 on
Windows but 128 on other systems..)
COM_FileExtension() was parsing strings from beginning to end, bailing
out as soon as '.' was found and treating everything thereafter as the
file extension. That behavior caused problem with relatives pathes like
models/monsters/tank/../ctank/skin.pcx. The new implementation uses
strrchr() to determine the last '.'.
This fixes issue #48. The bug was introduced in e07294b which replaced
hand rolled code with COM_FileExtention().
This fixes a long standing and until now unnoticed bug with negative
colored dynamic lights. Since we never set the OpenGL renderer as out
renderer, remaining softrenderer code was executed and the corresponding
effects never rendered. This manifested itself in missing darkness
around the "gravity well" in rogue.
Newer jpeg versions (I guess starting with 9) define an macro
"VERSION", colliding with ours. While wie could #undef it, take
the less hacky route and rename it.
Normally setting gl_mode cvar would result in VID_LoadRefresh because
of vid_ref being "modified". After removing vid_ref out of the picture
it will "modify" vid_fullscreen to replicate the same behaviour.
Variable "name" (who used to hold refresh dll name) is now left unused
All references to vid_ref cvar has been taken out ...
