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.
