Daniel is more or less sure that a stuck Alt key can occure if the user
switches through several windows by Alt-Tab. That sounds resonable,
because the keyup event for Alt may happen when the focus is not on
Quake II. In that case SDL2 misses it and for Quake II the key stays
down. Solve this by capturing the focus loss event and mark all keys
as up.
It's apparently not enough to clear key repeats, we'll need to clear
the down states too. Without this Alt stays pressed after toggeling
fullscreen trhough Alt-Enter.
Switching to fullscreen through a SDL2 call is nice, but the renderer
needs to be reinitialized. Without it some things will break, for
example the gamma setting.
No, this is not a rage quit but the result of a long discussion. There
are several reasons for us to drop OS X support:
- OS X support was always more or less hacky. For example is was never
really integrated into the build system and some features like the
OpenAL sound backend never worked well.
- The OS X support never grew into the new world based upon SDL2.
- It was broken since at least Lion which was released 4 years ago.
- None of the developers has a Mac or plans to buy one. Supporting
a software for a platform not used by the developers is more or
less impossible.
- And despite several appeals no one from the OS X community ever
stept up and send patches.
Removed are:
- Makefile support
- The OpenAL quirks
- The Cocoa bindings
- The framworks
Not removed is:
- Savegame support
- Memory management support
- Platform detection
- OpenGL and SDL includes
So, if someone steps up and does a modern, fully integrated port based
upon SDL2 we're happy to merge it back. The requirements are:
- It must be a clean port, without any hacks
- Full build system integration must be provided
- The port must be maintained even after it was merged. At every release
binaries must be build, API / ABI changes with new OS X versions must
be tracked.
This is a less intrusive variant of the old Key_ClearState() function.
When the refresher is restarted or the menu is left, this function is
called to mark all keys as "up". That works around some corner cases
where a key is still marked "down" and thus the first stroke is detected
as a repetition.
This works around a bug in SDL 1.2 were the SDL_EnableUNICODE() state is
reset to false after the window is reacreated. Setting it in the render
backend ensures that no keystrokes are lost. This fixes#56.
- Handling of key combinations like Alt + Return or Shift + Escape
clearly belong into the frontend. Now that the client won't clear
the keystates any more it's save to handle them there.
- The 'force_centerview' command belongs into the client move stuff.
I guess it was part of the backend sinces it messes with mouse
handling. Since the renderer is now part of the client that's not
necessary anymore.
- One can argue that +mlook and -mlook belong into client move stuff,
too. But since we need there calculations in the backend anyway,
leave things like they are.
Until now Quake 2 used keysyms aka key events for everything, including
the console and the chat window. Since key events don't reflect if the
shift key is pressed, Quake 2 needed to convert the lower case chars to
upper case char through a hardcoded table. That lead to the problem that
the keyboard layout was utilised for lower case characters only.
Solve this long standing problem by refactoring both the input backend
and the frontends Key_Event() funktion to use character events for most
input subsystem. Character events are generated by SDL and send the
real character.
An example:
- On german keyboards shift and . is : but Quake 2 generated <.
- Now a character event with : is generated and used.
There are at least 3 disadvantes by this approach:
- The backend needs to tell the frontend if a normal character (ASCII
32 to 126) or a special character is send. Only normal characters can
be treated as character events.
- There may be some differences between the binding of a key seen
through the console and seen by the game. If you have a german
keyboard and bind :, the game may not react to :. This can be worked
around by editing the config file.
- Users may need to rebind some keys.
Please note that Quake 2 can handle ASCII characters only!
In the old times the refresher was a stand alone DLL. For performance
reasons and to avoid laggy input parts of the input system were
implemented in this DLL. Now that the renfresher is part of the main
binary and initialized at client startup we can remove most of the
abstractions between input system, refresher and client. Also the
input system can be treated as a normal subsystem.
Changes:
- Untangle the VID_* stuff and the IN_* stuff. The functions
called by function pointers in in_state are now called directly
and 'struct in_state' was removed.
- Remove input.h and rename the appropriate backend functions.
There's no longer a need for an abstraction layer between the
input backend and the input frontend.
- Move input initialization and shutdown into CL_Init(), like it's
already done for all other subsystems.
- Remove Key_ClearStates(). I'm pretty sure that's a left over from
the old Win 9x backends and unnecessary.
- General cleanup.
This reverts commit 70eef55ab5.
It was premature to merge this commit into HEAD. Maybe we'll try again
one day, but only if a complete and fully working patch with build
system integartion is provided.
This integrates the backends for the pandora, gcw and gph written by
Scott "Pickle" Smith. Only the code itself is supplied, but no build
system integration.
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.
MSAA was a long wanted and often requested feature. Just set set the
desired number of samples with gl_msaa_samples and do a vid_restart.
This code is based upon work done in Hecatomb.
On some systems SDL_SetRelativeMouseMode() can fail under several
circumstances. For example:
- Security software is blocking acces to raw input.
- XInput 2 is unavailable.
- SDL2s configure script has messed up.
Detect those situations and reposition the mouse manually to the
window center after having read it's current state. This fixes
issue #34 an #35.
Input devices should send key events and nothing more. The ability to
add commands into the input buffer was used by the joystick code
(removed long time ago) and as a dirty hack to work around limitations
of DirectInput.
- Remove the keyq. This linked list was used to work around limitations
of the good, old DirectInput API. It's not necessary with SDL.
- Inline some functions to others where apropriate and remove unused
or unnecessary functions.
- Reorder functions into groups.
- Update comments.
This commits still misses necessary changes to the frontend. They'll be
done in subsequential commits.
We had dual precision since ever on 64 bit unixoid systems and it "just
worked". So there should be no reason to still force Windows down to
single precision. The performance impact should be negligible.
Pressing two mouse buttons at the same time didn't work properly, only
one had effect, e.g. when pressing LMB to walk forward and RMB to shoot
(when bound like that...)
Not sure why that was, but the old mouse button handling (inherited from
the super-old win32 backend where it was supposed to work around bugs in
WinAPI or whatever, where sometimes there were two mouse button presses
in one event or something) was unnecessarily complicated anyway so I
replaced it with something simpler.
Make non global functions static, give some better names to variables,
remove unneccessary special cases and remove some superflous functions.
Form most - if not all - users this changes should be a no-op.
The quake2 binary now gets -DSDL2 in the CFLAGS, so Win32/OSX can
use different #include paths accordingly.
This is also (ab)used to print which SDL version is used on startup.
Don't use this for anything else, use
#if SDL_VERSION_ATLEAST(2, 0, 0)
instead.
I haven't tested building on/for Win32 or OSX, there may be more
work to do.
Furthermore I added Copyright-Info about CalculateGammaRamp()
in refresh.c (it's from SDL2)
* Fix input issues (mouse-wheel and mouse input)
* SDL2 is not default anymore in the Makefile (use WITH_SDL2=yes)
* If SDL2 is enabled, CD audio is disabled (SDL2 doesn't support
that - use OGG/Vorbis instead)
* Small fix to make it compile with SDL1.2 again
Makefile is adjusted, it compiles and works mostly, but
* For some reason (bug in SDL_GetRelativeMouseState() ?)
mouse input doesn't work properly.. it seems to be bound
to window borders, even if input is grabbed
* some keys can't be used anymore because there's no SDLK_*
for them anymore (gotta find out if this is important)
* Maybe some of the changes need cleanup
Those extensions have become part of ARB about 15 years ago and most if
not all video cards still in use should support the ARB versions. I
believe that at least parts of this code were disfunctional.
This removes the need to define the old qgl function names to the
official OpenGL names. The OpenGL functions are now called directly
without any abstraction.
With this change the "refresh" make target doesn't any longer exists.
It was merged into the "client" target. One will need a "make clean"
before building yQ2 after this change.
This is a manual merge of Hecatomb Q2 ref b8952d5. Manual since git
couldn't do an automerge for some reasons... Notable changes are:
- QGL function pointers are removed, libGL is linked directly
- The OpenGL log framework is removed. It was disfunctional
- The gl_driver cvar is finaly gone
This change is currently untested on Windows and OS. There should
be no problems but a better Makefile integration of libGL is needed.
VID_LoadRefresh with no parameters
VID_LoadRefresh doesn't need a DLL name (because there isn't one)
Rename reflib_active to ref_active
Reference to client input callbacks
All declarations are at the beginning of the file
Full reimplementation of VID_Shutdown
VID_Shutdown does all the refresher cleanup
Reimplementation of VID_FreeReflib
Implementation of VID_LoadRefresh
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 ...
Revert "change several strcat calls to Q_strlcat calls"
This reverts commit ab879f1bc7.
Revert "change (v)sprintf calls to (v)snprintf calls"
This reverts commit b46e210d76.
These are the code changes and Makefile changes necessary to build and
run Yamagi Quake II on Max OS X. OS X 10.6 or higher is required, older
version may work but we cannot guarantee it. The documentation will be
added in another commit. This patch was contributed by W. Beser, I made
only some small cosmetical changes.
This is necessary since non-base OpenGL functions can't be connected by
calling the standard GetProcAddress() on Windows. To archive this the
old qwglGetProcAdress() is renamed into GetProcAdressGL() and a new
function pointer qwglGetProcAdress is introduced. On unixoid System it's
NULL and on Windows connected to wglGetProcAddress(). If it's NULL the
system wide function is called, if not the function Pointer is used.
To archive this, 3 new functions Sys_GetProcAddress(), Sys_LoadLibrary()
and Sys_FreeLibrary() were added to abstract the library loading code
into a platform independend API.
