- move a few variables from SceneDrawer to FRenderViewpoint.
The global r_viewpoint variable is left alone now to always represent the current viewpoint to the play code.
The main reason behind this change is to reduce the amount of global variables being used by the hardware renderer's scene processing code.
This is for Vulkan preparation where all of this needs to run in a user-specified context so that this code can be moved out of the GL folder without depending on OpenGL's global state model.
This is better be made part of the 2D interface.
That would have been done long ago if it hadn't been for the totally incompatible way this was handled by the purely paletted software renderer.
Now with that out of the way there is no point keeping this code this deeply embedded in the renderer.
Lots of this was still laid out for DirectDraw. This removes most of Begin2D so that it can be done more cleanlz.
Note that this commit renders weapon sprites and screen blends incorrectly. Those will be fixed in an upcoming commit.
- eliminated hqresize.cpp's dependency on GL headers.
- cleaned up the logic for CreateTexBuffer so that hqresize.cpp does not need to check for software warped textures anymore.
It may use the same calculations as the hardware renderer but must use the 2D drawer for display.
It should be investigated if the hardware renderer can do this as well.
This does not work with a setup where the same backend is driving both renderers.
Most of this is now routed through 'screen', and the decision between renderers has to be made inside the actual render functions.
The software renderer is still driven by a thin opaque interface to keep it mostly an isolated module.
- made bluramount also into a gameinfo option
- negative gl_menu_blur cvar now uses gameinfo option, 0 disables it
- removed gl_menu_blur_enabled since gl_menu_blur==0 does that anyway
- made gl_menu_blur default to -1 to use gameinfo option
- add default gameinfo bluramount options
It looks like the memory management at use here is not capable of maintaining multiple instances simultaneously and the camera textures create another scene drawer so the initialization of the main scene drawer has to be delayed until after the camera textures are done.
This has increasingly become an obstacle with the hardware renderer, so now the values are being stored as plain data in the sector, with the software renderer getting the actual color tables when needed. While this is a bit slower than storing the pregenerated colormap, in realistic situations the added time is mostly negligible in the microseconds range.
Removing this made me realize that calling the renderers' FakeFlat functions from the automap is inherently unsafe with the recent refactorings because there is absolutely no guarantee that the data may actually still be defined when the automap is being drawn.
So the best approach here is to give the automap its own FakeFlat function that runs independently of render data and assumptions of data preservation. This one can also be a lot simpler because it only needs the floor, not the ceiling info.
