01:05 Revision 3a2f399e (github): Updated cbuffer_t with a new means to retrieve lines. Con_BufferGetLines() returns an array of ptrs from the given buffer. This was added to eliminate the problem of meshing due to the fact that multiple threads can write to a cbuffer_t, meaning that their contents could (and often do) change while one thread is rendering and another is writing.

This comes at a small price though; when drawing the console Con_BufferGetLines() is called each frame. Therefore, ea... danij

23:39 Revision 17d7daa0 (github): Draw a rotating progress indicator. loading1.png and loading2.png must be real files in the base dir. Engine startup updates the progress.

23:00 Revision c69b2230 (github): Implemented a mutex for cbuffer_t's to protect for multi-threaded use. Hopefully, I got this right.

20:04 Revision 8c3b4a4b (github): Updated vcproj and vcbuild for Doomsday; new source files.

17:52 Revision 0ab4160b (github): Moved userdir_ok to a better place.

skyjake

17:41 Revision edcc2416 (github): Reordered engine startup so that it can happen in busy mode. GL is inited very early on with GL_EarlyInit(). However, fonts and texture management are not available until GL_Init() can be called, and that can only be done after resources are available. In other words, most of engine startup busy drawing must be done manually with fonts loaded from real files at known locations (if any text is shown), and manually loaded graphics for a progress visualization.

Con_Error() was modified to work better from the worker thread. skyjake

2007-02-05

20:33 Revision e224f4ee (github): New busy mode. The main engine thread loops in a drawer, which updates the screen. In the background, the worker thread does the actual task of loading a map, loading textures, starting up the engine (not quite yet, though), connects to a server, etc.

Texture uploading was revised to make it possible for the worker thread to upload textures in a deferred mode, where ... skyjake

01:11 Revision 1aff7804 (github): Removed unneeded code added during debug.

01:01 Revision a1e76291 (github): LINE_NEIGHBOR macro is not needed now.

danij

00:54 Revision 0d437963 (github): Revised R_InitLineNeighbors() to make use of vertex lineowners. In doing so, the majority of the visual fakeradio glitches when playing maps utilizing DOOM renderer hacks have been resolved (the old code was sometimes finding the wrong line neighbors). Is also noticeably quicker as we don't have to traverse all the lines in a sector for each vertex for each side, for each neighbor.

Fixed a bug in R_RationalizeSectors() which could result in an infinite loop in complex maps (e.g. bludwrks.wad).

01:39 Revision 1c65ba79 (github): Changed subsector->firstline to a seg ptr. Renamed to subsector->firstseg and subsector->linecount to subsector->segcount to avoid confusion. Changed associated DMU constant names to suit.

Fixed a bug in the calculation of reverb properties. Segs were being indexed from zero instead of subsector->firstseg. danij
