This should avoid the stuttering due to slow unloading on some drivers.
I also turned up the amount of stuff we load per frame since nobody has
been complaining about stutters there, but there has been a few cases of
levels loading in too slowly.
(this only changes graphics, not actual GOAL level load times).
Trying to make up for some of the startup speed lost in the SDL
transition. This saves about 1s from start (from ~3s), and about 500 MB
of RAM.
- Faster TIE unpack by merging matrix groups, more efficient vertex
transforms, and skipping normal transforms on groups with no normals.
- Refactor generic merc and merc to use a single renderer with multiple
interfaces, rather than many renderers. Removed "LightningRenderer" as a
special thing, but Warp is still special
- Add more profiling stuff to startup and the loader.
- Remove `SDL_INIT_HAPTIC` - this turned out to be needed for
force-feedback steering wheels, and not needed for controller vibration
- Switched `vag-player` to use quicksort instead of the default GOAL
sort (very slow)
Add a debug window for the loader to show levels and fix an issue with
jak 2 level unloading. I never really thought about how this works for >
2 levels, and there is a chance that you could unload the wrong level in
some cases.
The problem is some combination of merc-only levels not counting toward
the "in use" detection, and the unloader ignoring what the game wants to
load.
I don't remember why using merc models doesn't contribute to "in use"
but I'm afraid to change this for jak 1. Instead, we can have the
unloader avoid unloading levels that the game is telling us are loaded.
This is what we should have done originally, but there was a time when
Jak 1 didn't tell the loader anything, and we had this stupid detection
thing.
I think this is the first step toward just getting rid of the "in use"
detection and trusting the game for everything.
A few issues:
- lwidea's fr3 is getting loaded and unloaded all the time
- the debug line drawing clipping is wrong (doesn't seem wrong in pcsx2,
so I think this is on us)
- nothing actually using vis data yet
- at a large distance, our view frustum culling seems slightly too
aggressive (might be that viewport scissoring is wrong)
- in the city, things seem darker as you move away. unclear how this is
happening (fog?)
* extractor: refactor and cleanup for multi-game support
* deps: switch to `ghc::filesystem` as it is utf-8 everywhere by default
* extractor: finally working with unicode
* unicode: fix unicode cli args on windows in all `main` functions
* Remove assets folder, use more std::filesystem
* windows fix
* another one for windows
* another one
* better system for different folders
* rm debugging stuff
* let extractor override everything
* dont revert jak1 change
* tfrag3 data for merc2
* dma hooks for merc2
* start designing merc2 opengl, seems like the simple approach will be the best here
* before bone packing experiment
* fix up bones.gc
* use uniform buffer
* speedup, fix faces and eyes
* final fixes
* first pass at loader updates, tie is still bad
* temp
* improved loader
* run iop less often
