This attempts to get into master whatever work was done in this PR /
it's earlier PR https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project/pull/3965
I don't want this work to be lost / floating around in massive PRs.
However the changes are:
- switch to ntsc_v1 instead of PAL as the development target, as we have
done for all other games
- remove most of the copied-from-jak2/3 changes as they need to be
confirmed during the decompilation process not just assumed
- avoids committing any changes to `game/kernel/common` as it was not
clear to me if these were changes made in jak x's kernel that were not
properly broken out into it's own functions. We don't want to
accidentally introduce bugs into jak1-3's kernel code.
- in other words, if the change in the kernel only happens in jak x...it
should likely be specific to jak x's kernel, not common.

Taking the suggestion from @Calinou
(https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project/pull/3943#issuecomment-3017359144),
this replaces the resolve/render framebuffer -> window framebuffer blit
with an actual drawn tri-strip which covers the entire viewport, which
the PCRTC blackout already does.
It appears we have no guarantee what state the internal window
framebuffer will be in, so drawing an actual primitive and letting the
fragment shader do all the work seems to be the more
compatible/functional solution here.
Thanks for the suggestion!
This attempts to do a best-effort quick fix for the sprite alignment in
the menus and first person views on higher aspect ratios. This:
- Hides the binocular borders completely when using a non-standard ratio
- Hides the borders in jak's first person view when using a non-standard
ratio
- Uses a combination of manual alignment and approximation to get the
pause menu closer.
> 32:9 screenshot.
I accomplished the last one by manually aligning all of the core sprites
and text for the most popular aspect ratios. This means that from a
practical standpoint, things should align "perfectly". However, I then
used all of those values to derive a polynomial for each adjustment
based on the aspect ratio. This allows the game to do a half-decent
approximation/interpolation for every aspect ratio in-between the common
ones. It won't be perfect, but it will be better than this:
For now, this just adds sky (clouds and fog), darkjak, and skull gem.
There are some unknown issues with drawing the skull gems still, but I
think it's unrelated to texture animations.
Also fixes https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project/issues/3523
This adds hfrag, but with a few remaining issues:
- The textures aren't animated. Instead, it just uses one texture.
- The texture filtering isn't as good as at it could be.
I also cleaned up a few issues with the background renderers:
- Cleaned up some stuff that is common to hfrag, tie, tfrag, shrub
- Moved time-of-day color packing stuff to FR3 creation, rather than at
level load. This appears to reduce the frame time spikes when a level is
first drawn by about 5 or 6 ms in big levels.
- Cleaned up the x86 specific stuff used in time of day. Now there's
only one place where we have an `ifdef`, rather than spreading it all
over the rendering code.
This includes all the collision stuff needed to spawn `target`,
decompiles the sparticle code and adds some of the PC hacks needed for
merc to run (it doesn't work quite right and looks bad, likely due to a
combination of code copied from Jak 2 and the time of day hacks).
There are a bunch of temporary hacks (see commits) in place to prevent
the game from crashing quite as much, but it is still extremely prone to
doing so due to lots of missing functions/potentially bad decomp.

- state handlers that are not inlined lambdas have smarter type
checking, getting rid of 99.9% of the casts emitted (they were not
useful)
- art groups were not being properly linked to their "master" groups.
- `max` in `ja` in Jak 2 was not being detected.
Another huge PR...
This changes how `BlitDisplays.cpp` works so it looks at the current
render buffer, rather than the back buffer.
This approach is a bit faster because we avoid copying the back buffer
on every single frame.
It also removes the black frames when the transition starts/stops.
The remaining issues are:
- there's still a single frame of weirdness with the sprite glow
renderer.
- when changing resolutions, it doesn't work super well.
Fixes skull gems using a low resolution texture.
Fixes issue where jak in cutscenes is dark after watching oracle-level-1
(and likely other bugs with texture animations getting stuck)

Added framework to do texture animations entirely in C++. Currently only
works on relatively simple ones, and doesn't handle updating all
parameters - only the speeds.
Connected texture animations to merc and tfrag for skull gems, dark
bomb, and scrolling conveyors.
Cleaned up Tfragment/Tfrag3, which used to be two classes. This was one
of the first C++ renderers, so it had a weird design.
The main thing that was done here was to slightly modify the new
subtitle-v2 JSON schema to be more similar to the existing one so that
it can properly be used in Crowdin.
Draft while I double-check the diff myself
Along the way the following was also done (among other things):
- got rid of as much duplication as was feasible in the serialization
and editor code
- separated the text serialization code from the subtitle code for
better organization
- simplified "base language" in the editor. The new subtitle format has
built-in support for defining a base language so the editor doesn't have
to be used as a crutch. Also, cutscenes only defined in the base come
first in the list now as that is generally the order you'd work from
(what you havn't done first)
- got rid of the GOAL subtitle format code completely
- switched jak 2 text translations to the JSON format as well
- found a few mistakes in the jak 1 subtitle metadata files
- added a couple minor features to the editor
- consolidate and removed complexity, ie. recently all jak 1 hints were
forced to the `named` type, so I got rid of the two types as there isn't
a need anymore.
- removed subtitle editor groups for jak 1, the only reason they existed
was so when the GOAL file was manually written out they were somewhat
organized, the editor has a decent filter control, there's no need for
them.
- removed the GOAL -> JSON python script helper, it's been a month or so
and no one has come forward with existing translations that they need
help with migrating. If they do need it, the script will be in the git
history.
I did some reasonably through testing in Jak1/Jak 2 and everything
seemed to work. But more testing is always a good idea.

## Problem
OpenGOAL uses OpenGL 4.3.
Apple stopped upgrading OpenGL after 4.1, so the way OpenGOAL currently
works will never be playable on Macs using OpenGL.
## Solution
Luckily, downgrading to OpenGL 4.1 is not a huge change (at least it
doesn't seem like it to my untrained eyes).
## Changes
* set hints for OpenGL 4.1 instead of 4.3 for __APPLE__
* skip the OpenGL debugging callback setup for macOS (requires 4.3)
* bump down the version string for all shaders
* stop using the `binding` layout qualifier in shader code
* move the `flat` qualifier first (not sure if this is a 4.1 thing or
just Macs being more strict)
* don't mix signed and unsigned ints in shaders (not sure if this is a
4.1 thing or just Macs being more strict)
* add some hacky CPP to the Shader constructor for binding texture units
and bones buffers based on variable names in the shader code
## Results
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)
Adds support for adding custom subtitles to Jak 2 audio. Comes with a
new editor for the new system and format. Compared to the Jak 1 system,
this is much simpler to make an editor for.
Comes with a few subtitles already made as an example.
Cutscenes are not officially supported but you can technically subtitle
those with editor, so please don't right now.
This new system supports multiple subtitles playing at once (even from a
single source!) and will smartly push the subtitles up if there's a
message already playing:
Unlike in Jak 1, it will not hide the bottom HUD when subtitles are
active:
Sadly this leaves us with not much space for the subtitle region (and
the subtitles are shrunk when the minimap is enabled) but when you have
guards and citizens talking all the time, hiding the HUD every time
anyone spoke would get really frustrating.
The subtitle speaker is also color-coded now, because I thought that
would be fun to do.
TODO:
- [x] proper cutscene support.
- [x] merge mode for cutscenes so we don't have to rewrite the script?
