this snowballed into a massive search+destroy of the hodgepodge of
mostly equivalent types we had in use (int, uint, unsigned, unsigned
int, i32, u32, ulong, uintN).
it is more efficient to use 64-bit types in 64-bit mode, so the
preferred default is size_t (for anything remotely resembling a size or
index). tile coordinates are ssize_t to allow more efficient conversion
to/from floating point. flags are int because we almost never need more
than 15 distinct bits, bit test/set is not slower and int is fastest to
type. finally, some data that is pretty much directly passed to OpenGL
is now typed accordingly.
after several hours, the code now requires fewer casts and less
guesswork.
other changes:
- unit and player IDs now have an "invalid id" constant in the
respective class to avoid casting and -1
- fix some endian/64-bit bugs in the map (un)packing. added a
convenience function to write/read a size_t.
- ia32: change CPUID interface to allow passing in ecx (required for
cache topology detection, which I need at work). remove some unneeded
functions from asm, replace with intrinsics where possible.
This was SVN commit r5942.
fix: g_frequencyFilter is now in globals.cpp instead of in main (since
other modules access it and main.cpp isn't included in the self-test)
fix: globals.h now avoids dragging sdl.h into other projects
allocators: got rid of references to the old master header (must now
include the specific header, e.g. dynarray.h)
This was SVN commit r5534.
. timer, config: fix definition of ALLOW_RDTSC
. add movsx_be64 (for whirlpool), revise implementation, move to
byte_order, add test
. MAX -> std::max, remove those macros
. add timestamp to system_info as requested by philip
This was SVN commit r5050.
Game, Simulation, etc: Separated 'update' and 'interpolate', and made
'update' return whether it's going fast enough (so callers can decide to
do more updates per render). Changed some time variables to 'double' so
they have enough precision in long games.
Atlas: Added "Fast" playback button. Made simulation sometimes go at
real-time speed, if it's just slightly too slow at rendering.
VertexBuffer: Removed some non-useful glGetError calls.
Entity: Commented out redundant Tick code. Fixed syntax error in
disabled code that confused the IDE.
Aura: Changed string code again, to simply use ASCII instead of UTF-16.
(SpiderMonkey seems to handle it just as efficiently, for small
strings.)
Misc: Some more minor header-file cleanup.
SVN log: Added feed link.
This was SVN commit r4807.
- Added "Screenshot Mode" and "Fog of War" game attributes. (Screenshot
Mode causes units to be initialized to Hold stance instead of Aggress
and also forces LOS to be All Visible. Atlas turn on Screenshot Mode by
default so units don't try to kill each other in there.)
- Modified LOSManager to allow disabling fog of war.
- Removed some debug message spam.
- Enabled line antialiasing for aura rendering and fixed some bugs that
caused strange effects (color was not set properly for the center point,
and when a unit was both mouseover'ed and selected, the aura was drawn
twice).
- Modified Stand stance to allow retaliation on attacks (normally Stand
will attack any enemy in LOS, but this is useful if a neutral unit is in
LOS).
- Modified pathfinder to not take into account terrain slope, which is
an expensive calculation - we'll eventually take into account terrain
type instead.
This was SVN commit r4527.
Color: Moved SColor* structs into SColor.h, so they can be used without
indirectly including CVector[34]D.
Terrain: Added 'base colour', for the Actor Viewer to be able to
modulate the colour of normally-white terrain.
Removed some "using namespace std" (because it doesn't make the code
easier to read, and it defeats the point of namespaces, and the rest of
the code doesn't do it).
This was SVN commit r4392.
Atlas: Added ActorViewer. Moved GL canvas into separate class for shared
use. Disabled message-handling callback while blocked on the game, and
stopped creating dialog boxes inside the game thread in order to avoid
deadlocks (hopefully). Support multiple Views (for independent sets of
camera/update/render code). Recalculate territory boundaries when
necessary. Changed default list of animations to match those currently
used by actors.
# Tidied up more code.
Moved some more #includes out of .h files, to minimise unnecessary
compilation.
MathUtil: Deleted unused/unuseful macros (M_PI (use PI instead), M_PI_2
(use PI/2), MAX3, ABS (use abs)).
ObjectManager: Removed some ScEd-specific things.
Unit: Moved creation out of UnitManager, so units can be created without
adding to the manager. Changed CStr8 to the more conventional CStr.
app_hooks: Removed warning for setting multiple times.
win: Restored SEH catcher.
GameSetup, GameView: Removed RenderNoCull, because it doesn't seem to do
what it says it does ("force renderer to load everything") since we're
loading-on-demand most stuff and it doesn't seem especially useful since
we'd prefer to minimise loading times (but feel free to correct me if
I'm wrong). (And because it crashes when things need to be initialised
in a different order, so it's easier to remove than to understand and
fix it.)
PatchRData, Renderer: Work sensibly when there's no game (hence no LOS
manager, water, etc).
LOSManager: Use entity position instead of actor position when possible.
TerritoryManager: Allow delayed recalculations (so Atlas can issue lots
of move+recalculate commands per frame).
Cinematic: Non-pointer wxTimer, so it doesn't leak and doesn't have to
be deleted manually.
This was SVN commit r4261.
- remove ScEd hacks and CFont et al macro rename
- fix accursed bug in VFS buffer management that was causing ReadFile to
fail without error (not allocating enough padding)
- vfs_tree: bugfix in tree_lookup
- waio: temporarily disable sector size determination (pending better
approach - need to determine if using DVD drive)
This was SVN commit r3421.
frame for LOD (in the long run, try splitting them into dynamic and
non-dynamic parts).
Also, using TIMER_ACCRUE in an inner loop isn't such a good idea ;)
This was SVN commit r3104.
minimap, PatchRData, renderer: fix ELOSState comparison vs & and use
SAFE_DELETE
ia32: add rounding control constants (for FISTP)
premake: set /QIfist compiler setting which causes float->int casts to
go through FISTP instruction instead of _ftol2() (much faster, but
requires CPU state to have been set)
LOSManager.cpp: cache m_TilesPerSize; use MIN/MAX; use
CTerrain::CalcFromPosition; clean up GetUnitState a bit. now runs at
203ns, down from 222
This was SVN commit r3099.
ia32: removing misleading and outdated comment
Player: add "LOS token" - speeds up LosManager by caching a temp result
LOSMAnager: speed up by about 9%, more to come. combined 2 DWORDs into
one u16; further optimization pending. old code remains (via #ifdef
frankenstein)
This was SVN commit r3097.
dyn_array.h -> allocators.h
ogl_tex: reenable performance warning
tex: comments
h_mgr: debug_printf if long filename is passed in (so we notice)
wsdl: squelch DestroyWindow warning. will look into the cause.
sysdep: slightly simplify "restrict" determination
This was SVN commit r2916.
LOS issues still outstanding:
- LOS looks ugly because of quad tesselation into 2 triangles
- Quad tesselation is unspecified by OpenGL (in fact using GL_QUADS on
LOS quads seemed to give different tesselations than it did for the
underlying terrain quads, but terrain rendering also used GL_QUADS).
This should be fixed once we decide on the quad tesselation issue.
- Units with traits.vision.permanent set are visible through FOW even if
you havent seen them before; this should only be true when you have seen
them before. But it gets even more complicated - if a permanent unit
seen through FOW dies or gets upgraded or something, perhaps you should
remember the old version. I'm not completely sure how to do this
(probably involves cloning its actor somehow).
This was SVN commit r2876.
