This introduces a new command line parameter "--debug-opengl", which
will create special debug OpenGL contexts and attach a callback that the
driver will invoke when it detects a problem. The callback will then
write the error message to the logfile, and break into the debugger if
one is attached.
Currently only works on Windows.
When OC fails while in startup code, resetting the gamma ramp was trying
to use an uninitialized C4Draw, which would result in writes to invalid
memory.
CreateObject() now does not reposition an object after it has been created, but rather grows it around the center of said object.
To that end a new parameter has been added to DoCon() and SetCon() and the documentation has been updated.
With this change, an additional rectangle is stored in C4FoWRegion that
represents the area covered by the viewport in fractional floating point
coordinates. This allows the light texture to be created for an arbitrary
portion of the landscape, and the coordinate transformations for the
shaders will still work.
Also, since the additional rectangle uses floating point precision, the
computed coordinate transformations do now give the exact same result as for
the landscape pixel-by-pixel, and there should not be any offsets left.
I also hope that this change improves or fixes the single-pixel-lines of sky
that are sometimes seen at the edges of the viewport.
Appending and including skeletons works now. Documentation updated.
Skins such as appendto.Clonk.Farmer.skeleton are handled as if the skin name were not included: appendto.Clonk.skeleton
This also changes a bit the structure of how meshes are reloaded in general,
in particular mesh materials are only reloaded once and not once per
C4DefGraphics instance. (Fix crash on reload with included skeletons, cherry picked from commit 2f69aa4850ab7a4b621e5f30cbc537d40f32c0df)
Fix linking of C4Script standalone tool (cherry picked from commit b03a332b73463b378c94e4e92b66d45b923b3b9c)
This allows to see the whole landscape without any areas covered by FoW
in the global viewport. Basically the ambient lighting is set to 1.0
independent of the ambient light map. In the course of this, a second
shader for the landscape has been introduced.
This was not required before, but now most drawing operations require
the shaders to be loaded from Graphics.ocg. Therefore, move the graphics
resource loading earlier in the startup sequence, and make sure we don't
initialize the message board prematurely in OnResolutionChanged().
This usually means there was a script error in the scenario saving function. Better abort instead of overwriting the existing scenario with garbage data.
* added some class and method documentation, removed some superfluous comments like
void C4FoW::Update(C4Rect r)
{
// Update all lights
...
* added ASK comments that need clarification before proper documentation
I would prefer to render the models for speaker portraits directly. However, it seems like it's not currently possible to clip or render models to offscreen surfaces.
C4Group::Open would sometimes overwrite more specific error messages or
not mention the problematic path. DirectoryIterator::Read also now mentions
more detail. Two superfluous messages were removed to make space.
