Some general improvements for the texture animator:
- Clouds are special cased, saving about 1 ms per frame
- Adjusting the amount of clouds now actually works.
- Fixed an issue with the brightness of clouds, and the way that they
fade out around the edges.
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)
Fixes issue where warp effect looks wrong near the edge of the screen -
there was an unhandled `REGION_CLAMP` texture setting.
Fixes a potential bug where "warp page" things wouldn't be drawn at all
because there is no PC warp bucket. Unclear if anything actually fits
this category, but it doesn't hurt.
Turn on PC-format texture uploads for the water page so the precursor
guy uses the right texture. It has to use generic because it abuses the
generic death query thing to spawn particles.
Workaround for some issues with rebuilding level files after changing
engine files. Not a perfect solution, but probably good enough.
Three main changes:
- Adds support for the texture scrolling effect used on conveyor belts,
and turn it on for jak 2.
- Use merc instead of generic in jak 1 for ripple/water/texscroll stuff
(non-ocean water, lava, dark eco, etc). This is a pretty big speedup in
a lot of places.
- Fix a really old bug with blending mode used to draw environment maps.
The effect is that envmaps were half as bright as they should have been.
As usual, there's a flag to go back to the old behavior on jak 1. Set
these to `#t` to use generic like we used to.
```
*texscroll-force-generic*
*ripple-force-generic*
```
The format has changed, and everything must be rebuilt (C++, FR3's, GOAL
code)
Implements the jak 2 lightning renderer as an alternate path through
Generic2. Also set up some generic stuff in the goal code.
There is a problem with the texture pool, which doesn't support the case
where two textures have the same tbp, but different cluts. So lightning
is often the wrong color (usually red).
This adds environment mapping support to `Merc2`, and turns it on for
Jak 1 and Jak 2.
- The performance is much better
- Jak 1 can be toggled back to the old behavior with `(set! *emerc-hack*
#f)`. The new environment mapping is identical to the old one everywhere
I checked.
- Jak 1 still falls back to generic for ripple/texscroll/blerc/eyes -
there's still no dynamic texture or vertex updating support. The eye
detection stuff will sometimes flag stuff as eyes which is not eyes,
which is fine, but means that generic will be used in some places where
emerc could be used. For example, the shiny plates on jak's arm will be
drawn with generic because jak has eyes.
- Jak 2 hasn't been checked super carefully against PCSX2 yet.
- Jak 2 still isn't technically using emerc, but instead putting emerc
models in the merc bucket.
- The interface to merc is a lot different now and totally custom
OpenGOAL DMA code. The original merc drawing asm doesn't run anymore.
- The FR3 format changed
- Something funky going on with foreground lighting in escape, but
doesn't seem to be related to this change?
Performance comparison, jak 1, in likely the most generic-merc heavy
spot:
Favors the `lg` namespace over `fmt` directly, as this will output the
logs to a file / has log levels.
I also made assertion errors go to a file, this unfortunately means
importing `lg` and hence `fmt` which was attempted to be avoided before.
But I'm not sure how else to do this aspect without re-inventing the
file logging.
We have a lot of commented out prints as well that we should probably
cleanup at some point / switch them to trace level and default to `info`
level.
I noticed the pattern of disabling debug logs behind some boolean,
something to consider cleaning up in the future -- if our logs were more
structured (knowing where they are coming from) then a lot this
boilerplate could be eliminated.
