Angle kicks are used for weapon recoil, damage kicks and the like.
Setting the `cl_anglekicks` to `0` ignored them, they're read from
the network but not displayed. The cvar is cheat protected, it's
reset to `1` on server connect.

There already was one (that I only recently fixed) for semicolon, but
the same problem can happen with quotes or $ (which is used in macros)
(single-quote ' is probably not affected, added it just to be sure)
regardless of keyboard layout, with a special exemption for layouts
where that key generates a quote character (like the Brazilian one)
because you may wanna type a quote into the console.
(It's SDL_SCANCODE_GRAVE, that key between Esc, 1 and Tab)
The old hack of matching for ^, ~ and ` in Char_Event() didn't work very
well for layouts we didn't anticipate, which is especially relevant with
the recent Scancode fallback, which for example allows binding the ^ key
on Belgian keyboards (which is on SDL_SCANCODE_LEFTBRACKET, far away
from the "console key"), but in that case would *also* open the console.
This is mostly straight-forward, except for a small hack to prevent the
key from generating text input (on German layouts you otherwise get
"^" in the console when closing+opening it), which requires the
"console key" to be pressed without any modifiers like Shift or AltGr.
Yes, it's ugly, but it works and all the uglyness is contained in
IN_Update() and on the other hand Char_Event() becomes less ugly :)
If we can't map a SDL_KEYDOWN/KEYUP events SDL_Keycode to a known
Quake2 K_* keycode, we try to map the SDL_Scancode to one of the new
K_SC_* YQ2 scancodes instead.
The scancode name corresponds to the key at that position on US-QWERTY
keyboards *not* the one in the local layout, for example the German 'Ö'
key is K_SC_SEMICOLON.
This way (hopefully!) all keys on common keyboards can be bound,
regardless of their layout. The key name won't be immediately obvious
to the user, but it's only a fallback and better than nothing.
fixes#543
this way it's easier to tell if a key constant is not handled.
Also, there was a half-finished workaround to allow binding a ';' key
(which apparently in configs would otherwise be interpreted as
command separator), now that should actually work (=> special case
it in Key_KeynumToString())
Until this commit a cinematic was aborted as soon as any key were
marked down when finishing the user command and sending it to the
server. The whole logic to detect if a key is down is broken, for
example `vid_restart` may leave keys marked down that are in fact
up. And there's the possibility to inject fake key events from
nearly everywhere. I'm not really sure but I suspect that even the
server may be able to inject key events.
Therefore untangle the cinematic abort code from the user command
processing, it should depend only on real key strokes:
1. Introduce a new global variable `abort_cinamatic` and set it to
`cls.realtime` as soon as a key down event is detected. The only
exceptions are Escape and Shift, because opening the menu and
toggeling the console should never abort a cinematic.
2. When starting a cinematic `abort_cinamatic` is set to INT_MAX,
because it needs to be higher than the current `cls.realtime`.
3. When a cinematic is running, `cls.key_dest` is set to `key_game`
(`key_menu` and `key_console` are ignored, keys send to the menu
or the console should never abort a cinematic; `key_message`
can / should never happen while a cinematic is running) and
`abort_cinamatic` is less than `cls.realtime` the cinematic is
aborted.
`abort_cinamatic` less than `cls.realtime` is necessary because the
client needs one frame to pop up the menu or toggle the console and set
the `cls.key_dest` accordingly. `abort_cinamatic == cls.realtime - 1`
is not possible because not every frame finishes a user command.
This closes#502.
This prevenits the worlds from advancing during client connect. The
player won't get attacked by monsters or hurt by the environment. Note
that in baseq2 there're still 4 world frames processed by the game and
100 world frames if the player enters a level that he or she already
visited. Both aren't a big problem, 4 world frames are hardly enough
for monsters starting to attack and in most levels the starting area
can't be reached by monsters and is free from environmental effects.
Pause mode is only entered for local servers and only in single player
mode. This should prevent problems with coop and deathmatch games.
The behaviour can be controlled by `cl_loadpaused`:
* `0`: Do not enter pause mode, Vanilla Quake I behaviour.
* `1`: Enter pause mode at load and leave it at first regular server
frame.
* `2`: Enter pause mode at load, never leave it. The player must leave
it by hand.
This was requested in issue #417.
There's an "enable alt joy keys" command now. If a key is bound to that
command, all joystick buttons (incl. hat and triggers) are turned from
K_JOYx into K_JOYx_ALT, which allows two keybindings on the same key,
one with the altselector pressed and one without.
If there's no keybinding for K_JOYx_ALT, it will use the binding for
just K_JOYx as a fallback (if it exists).
This is especially handy to create direct bindings for all the weapons
on the (limited amount of) Joystick buttons.
The stores it's text in the key_lines array which is NUM_KEY_LINES *
MAXCMDLINE chars long. The code never checked for overflows, it just
assumed that a line will never be longer then 256 chars * 8 = 2048
pixel. With modern displays we can have higher vertical resolutions,
so the array will overflow sooner or later.
Fix it by clamping the maximum line width to MAXCMDLINE - 2 chars (1
for the prompt and 1 for the terminating \0). While at it increase
MAXCMDLINE to 1024 chars * 8 = 8192 pixel, which is more then 8k
resolution and should be enough for the years to come.
This is belived tot fix at least a part of issue #368.
...and fix the bugs, that were worked around with that crap, instead.
This removes some corner cases like cancelation of all HTTP downloads
and fallback to UDP if too many 404 errors were generated. If this is
still a problem in reality - for example HTTP servers blocking the
client after too many 404 or even crashing HTTP server - fix the server
and don't force the clients to work around that.
The URL generation logic was buggy, it took the local fs_gamedir into
account when determining the files path on the server. That could have
worked in r1q2 or q2dos since they assume that the executable dir is
also the config dir. But it breaks in YQ2 were the executable dir and
the config dir differ.
These are:
- CL_ResetPrecacheCheck(): Resets the precacher, forces it to reevaluate
which assets are available and what needs to be downloaded.
- FS_FileInGamedir(): Checks if a file (and only a real file, not
somthing in a pak) is available in fs_gamedir.
- FS_AddPAKFromGamedir(): Adds a pak in fs_gamedir to the search path.
This is a very first cut:
* It compiles
* It doesn't crash
What's missing:
* cmake integration
* CURL should be loaded dynamically
* Integration between download code and filesystem
* Likely UTF-8 stuff
* cl_http.c needs cleanup
* Windows support
The last commits did some bigger changes to the interaction between the
GL renderers and the client. The code is now SDL 2.0 conformant, window
and context creation are strictly distinct operations. SDL is only
initialized when necessary. Since this broke the client <-> renderer
API, bump it's version.
There a lot of things left to do for dark and cold winter evenings:
* The software renderer implements it's own window handling and
reinitialized SDL whenever vid_restart is called. This is highly
problematic.
* vid_fullscreen is abused to communicate changes to renderer config
throughout the code. That's a very ugly, messy and potential very
problematic hack. But not easy to remove.
* Some funtion calls between the client and the renderer are
unnecessary.
The changes to the client <-> renderer interaction fixed issue #302.
* Another round of general cleanup.
* Introduce gl3_libgl cvar to force a libGL.
* Fix stencil buffer tests.
* Further untangle window <-> context stuff.
The window is now fully at client side, the context at renderer side.
This is another break of the renderer API. And at least GL1 needs to
track this, it's broken for now.
* Even more syntax and code style fixes.
* Rename functions to match their actual purpose.
* Fix comments.
* SDL initialization and shutdown is now client side only. With
SDL 1.2 finally gone there's no need to involve the renderers
in it.
This breaks the client <-> renderer API. I haven't bumped the API
version with this commit because there're likely more changes when
I'm going through the renderer side of things. The VID backend also
needs a lot of love...
It might be a good idea to move this SDL backend files into the client
and rename them. We'll decide that at a later time.
If too many of these sounds are started in one frame (for example if the
player shoots with the super shotgun into the power screen of a Brain)
things get too loud and OpenAL is forced to scale the volume of several
other sounds and the background music down. That leads to a noticable
and annoying drop in the overall volume.
Work around that by limiting the number of sounds started. 16 was
choosen by empirical testing.
SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN changes the display resolution if the requested
resolution is different to the actual resultion. SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_
DESKTOP doesn't do that, it places a smaller or bigger render area
somewhere inside the fullscreen area. This is somewhat nicer with modern
high resolution flatscreens.
This commit changes vid_fullscreen 1 from SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN to
SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP. Additional vid_fullscreen 2 is
implemented, it uses SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN to create the fullscreen
area.
TL;DR: Use vid_fullscreen 1 to keep the current resolution or use
vid_fullscreen 2 to switch the resolution.
Implementation details: The whole fullscreen stuff is a horrible mess.
Like generations of hackers before me I'm not desperated enough to clean
it up. GLimp_InitGraphics() is modified to take the fullscreen mode as
an integer and not as a boolean. That's a change to the renderer API.
In GLimp_InitGraphics() the needed SDL fullscreen mode flag is
determined once at the top and just used further down below. That saves
dome SDL1 <-> SDL2 compatibility cruft. IsFullscreen() was modified to
return the actual fullscreen mode and not just if fullscreen is enabled.
One problem was that GL3_Shutdown() called several functions that use
that gl* function pointers - not a good idea if InitContext() failed
and the function pointers are all NULL. So check for that.
Similarly in GL3/R_ShutdownWindow() calling glClear() etc.
Another problem was that R_SetMode() would, if R_SetMode_impl() failed,
try again with a "safe" resolution (640x480 unless we had another
working resolution before) - which is bad if we're already using that
"safe" resolution because then GLimp_InitGraphics() would check mode
and fullscreen and decide it hasn't changed and do nothing and return
true, which would make SetMode() believe everything is fine and
afterwards all hell breaks loose.
if the lightmap textures are 1024x512 instead of 128x128, all original
Q2 levels will only need one lightmap texture (instead of max 26 or so)
and even maps that needed all 127 (the 128th was the dynamic lightmap)
won't need more than 4.
This should result in less glBindTexture() calls.
(Note: When I wrote "1 lightmap texture" I meant 4, because where the
old renderer dynamically blended the up to 4 lightmaps/surface, I put
them in 4 textures that belong together and are alle passed to and
blended in the fragment shader)
the screenshot command now supports the filetype as optional argument
(just "screenshot" will use tga like before):
"screenshot png" will save the screenshot as PNG, same with jpg, png
and tga.
For jpg, you can even specify the quality, like "screenshot jpg 90"
(the Quality is between 1 and 100, like with libjpeg).
To reduce duplicated code, I addeed Vid_WriteScreenshot() to refimport_t
and implement most of it in the client (vid.c).
The renderer still fetches the raw image data from OpenGL or whatever
and then calls re.VidWriteScreenshot() which will write it to disk in
the format requested by the user.
pass both normal texture and lightmap to shader instead of rendering the
level geometry again with the lightmap and GL_BLEND.
This is not done, some translucent surfaces are buggy now and it's only
static lightmaps. For this to work properly I'll need to add some more
shaders with and without lightmaps and use them accordingly.
For example, translucent surfaces (SURF_TRANS33/66) never have
lightmaps, neither to pertubed ones (SURF_DRAWTURB) like water and lava,
but scrolling surfaces (SURF_FLOWING) like elevators do use lightmaps
(as long as they're not also transulcent or perturbed)...
the arguments were not used anyway, and returning true/false is clearer
than returning -1 (for error) or sth else (which has no deeper meaning
anyway).
Also:
* PrepareForWindow() can now return -1 if there's an error
* suppress some warnings in Makefile
* fix error for building ref_gl.dylib on OSX
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().
This is largely based upon the cl_async 1 mode from KMQuake2, which in
turn is based upon r1q2. The origins of this code may be even older...
Different to KMQuake2 the asynchonous mode is not optional, the client
is always asynchonous. Since we're mainly integrating this rather
fundamental change to simplify the complex internal timing between
client, server and refresh, there's no point in keeping it optional.
The old cl_maxfps cvar controls the network frames. 30 frames should be
enough, even Q3A hasn't more. The new gl_maxfps cvar controls the render
frames. It's set to 95 fps by default to avoid possible remnant of the
famous 125hz bug.
