2010-08-15

00:36 Revision 7fc05f93 (github): Moved code for the game-side Map traversal/(search)utility routines from p_mapspec into dmu_lib. Cleaned up and updated style prior to coming changes to the linespecials (not spechits) and tag lists.

This needs to be addressed to improve performance in the automap by augmenting DMU with cleverer object-search capabi... danij

18:35 Revision 98fd0ab4 (github): Objects are now deserialized on clientside.

However, at the moment they contain no information except position.
This causes the client to experience a fatal error. skyjake

09:17 Revision fd4e2059 (github): Finished reimplementing the drawing of FI_PIC sprite animations, which now use Materials. By my reconing that leaves only the "predefined text color" feature to address.

Although there does seem to be an issue with the menu trigger; its always working while a finale is waiting on an obj... danij

03:28 Revision 572cfd12 (github): Fixed save game header read/write overflow.

danij

00:41 Revision dc0489f0 (github): Fixed WadMapConverter: "0 byte THINGS lump results in map conversion failure" (see here http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3043833&group_id=74815&atid=542099).

2010-08-13

23:44 Revision 2192a4bf (github): Revised the debug sky drawing modes so that the geometry is the same as when masking.

danij

19:26 Revision a3b4517b (github): Cleaned up the Material creation/update interface in preparation for implementing a more robust patching mechanism later.

danij

19:22 Revision ec062119 (github): Toned down the flickering applied to DOOM's FWATER glow in the default Material definitions.

danij

19:21 Revision f3f3f07e (github): When using the ccmd "warp" close the menu fast. Now that we are making use of the busy mode transition effect it looks odd with the menu fading out again.

danij

07:22 Revision 77dff593 (github): Various Materials related changes needed to move on with the UI work:

* Externalised the "system" namespace Material definitions into defs/materials.ded and loaded by default.
* Relocated... danij

07:04 Revision 3a447863 (github): Don't display the FPS counter if the UI is active (will need to specify a page soon).

danij

2010-08-12

21:37 Revision 80da9830 (github): Clarify FS find methods.

skyjake

19:52 Revision 316b59e2 (github): Began reworking the (currently special case) drawing of PFT_MATERIAL type FI_PICs. Can't go any further with this until Materials created for GLT_SPRITE textures are updated to inherit their offset from the sprite definition (will require updating world sprite drawing).

danij

15:55 Revision 475d76f1 (github): Began incorporating features needed for the control panel into the new UI2 system.

danij

08:26 Revision 7cf21f41 (github): Changed DOOM/Heretic/Hexen: Bad texture animation cycles (e.g., as defined in ANIMATED lumps) now produce a warning in the log instead of a critical error message.

danij

07:32 Revision 51d5a3ee (github): Removed cases from markSegSectionsPVisible intended to address an issue seen in Plutonia2::MAP25 - on closer inspection the problem is a variant of another which can't be handled here. This will have to wait.

Otherwise the skymasking seems to be working fine again. Back to the UI stuff. danij

2010-08-11

23:36 Revision 2eb88ab6 (github): Continued work on the new stencil-based skymask algorithm.

danij

20:59 Revision b5cd9aa9 (github): Fixed DOOM: Black water(?) in Plutonia2::MAP25 would not animate.

danij

14:21 Revision f4a37b5d (github): Missing new-line in unknown texture warning logged by GL_CheckTextureNumForName.

danij

14:13 Revision 69e43cc7 (github): Further enhancements to Rend_SSectSkyFixes to fix a couple of constructs seen in Plutonia2. The hunt continues...

danij

11:35 Revision 099d4719 (github): Missed a couple of necessary exceptions to the special cases added in Rend_SSectSkyFixes in the previous commit.

danij

02:05 Revision ef84138f (github): Added another special case to Rend_SSectSkyFixes to deal with the glitches seen on the midtexture columns in Plutonia2::MAP29

This routine is now a complete mess but I'm tired and this works; so I'm commiting. I'll refactor it later. danij

2010-08-10

22:28 Revision 0e009bb6 (github): Fixed handful of uninitialized assignments shown up by static analysis. Thanks for the report yagisan.

All but two of these were innoxious however as they are not read after the fact. The rest of the issues are false pos... danij

13:44 Revision bcc4bfb2 (github): Fixed: Animated blood waterfall textures in Plutonia 2.

Addressed the assumption that Materials in the MN_TEXTURES namespace were created in the same order as their primary ... danij

09:04 Revision 9fa2e389 (github): Fix inversed skyfix height checks in Rend_SSectSkyFixes.

danij

2010-08-09

20:14 Revision 3e30436c (github): The master is now open for Beta 7 development.

skyjake

16:34 Revision fc3c84de (github): I finally got fed up with the fps counter being drawn behind the console.

danij

16:33 Revision 811b3a27 (github): Optimize: If both left and right lightlevels are the same when drawing a wall, use the vector version of lightVertex so as to potentially benefit from SSE.

danij

10:50 Revision 6fc2d00a (github): Do render planes for unclosed sectors. Now our skymask strategy has changed this is precisely what we don't want to do (we need complete "sky volumes" without holes).

danij

10:46 Revision 5ac4fc33 (github): Addressed performance problem with MaterialBind for Material lookup.

danij

03:18 Revision 5fb2cd58 (github): Fix fi_obtype_e type checking in ui2_main.c due to silly copy paste oversights.

danij

00:27 Revision a67c09c6 (github): Fix typo in previous commit.

danij

2010-08-08

17:23 Revision c3031140 (github): Updated to compile with gcc 4.2 and the Mac OS 10.6 SDK.

skyjake

17:18 Revision 1eefd18d (github): Yet further finessing the handling of skymasked surfaces when the viewPlayer is in the void. It now appears to be working perfectly, although its now looking a bit of a mess. This needs rewriting.

danij

12:52 Revision 6441b83b (github): Further finessed handling of skymasked surfaces when the viewPlayer is in the void, so that the world is now rendered more pleasingly.

danij

06:17 Revision 5041eec7 (github): Fix line endings.

danij

06:11 Revision eddc01f3 (github): Changed: Reimplemented the skymask using a stencil.

Changed: Removed cvar "rend-sky-full" as it is no longer useful.
As yet untested on platforms which use SDL for wind... danij

danij

01:06 Revision 3d9962d4 (github): Continued work on merging the FIPage stuff with the existing UI subsystem.

danij

2010-08-06

22:43 Revision a8d9e3d0 (github): Completed seperation of the FIPage stuff out of the InFine subsystem. I'm going to now begin transforming the object model, to parallel the features of the existing UI subsystem.

danij

20:41 Revision 462d916f (github): Added a drawer function ptr to FIPage.

danij

19:37 Revision e8f2b71f (github): Initial steps in converging the game menu implementation into the engine-side FIPage stuff.

danij

10:14 Revision 032af5b6 (github): Fixed compile issue with gcc becoming confused about the two FI_Register functions due to the shared symbol namespace (can't they address this??).

danij

09:46 Revision 7df633ff (github): Fix compile error with gcc due to mismatched function declaration/definition.

danij

09:28 Revision bae06b4a (github): Do not give up loading a flat graphic if the lump its from is smaller than 4096 bytes. Instead always create an image of at least this size and fill the gaps with black. Fixes the thrashing problem with the sky flat in Heretic.

danij

2010-08-05

18:56 Revision 12f2b628 (github): Split the new FIPage/FIObject stuff out of engine/api/dd_infine.h and into engine/api/dd_ui.h in preparation for the next phase. Now the fun starts :)

danij

17:36 Revision a9ee10f8 (github): Moved the InFine script stack functionality into common/fi_lib as a wrapper interface. Clean up.

Todo: Reimplement the handling the GPT_FINALE2 packets to pass the condition values needed client-side.
Todo: Refacto... danij
