This tries to match the original behavior of the sprite allocation
"randomness", which should reduce the number of very empty sprite blocks
sent to C++.
Removes a leftover case for falling to back to generic-merc in jak 1.
This should fix the bug where daxter's face wasn't animated in the intro
after floating-point blerc was added.
This moves the blerc math from mips2c to the Merc2 renderer, and uses
floats instead.
We could potentially do this on the GPU, which would be even faster, but
this isn't that slow in the first place.
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?

Gives proper names to almost every color. It is very apparent that some
colors are context-sensitive/made for a specific purpose, so those
colors were named after that purpose instead of a generic color name.
Updates the decompiler for the new format and there's new macros. This
new format should be easier to read/parse.
Also rewrote `sp-init-fields!` (both jak 1 and 2) from assembly to GOAL.
Hopefully I did not miss any regressions in Jak 1/2 while updating the
files, it's a lot.
- better handling of the `disable-fog` settings for merc, should fix the
spotlights. There's a setting in the merc effect, and also a runtime
flag for the draw-control. I'm not actually sure what reads these, but
the draw-control one is definitely used to disable fog on the
spotlights.
- increase merc draw limit to try to fix the issue about partially drawn
citizens in the city
- remove useless debug prints (it's okay to die in init, and the medium
load buffer size mode is understood now)
Definitely needs a clean up pass, but I think the functionality is very
close.
There's a few "hacks" still:
- I am using the emerc logic for environment mapping, which doesn't care
about the length of the normals. I can't figure out how the normal
scaling worked in etie. I want to do a little bit more experimentation
with this before merging.
- There is some part about adgifs for TIE and ETIE that I don't
understand. The clearly correct behavior of TIE/ETIE is that the alpha
settings from the adgif shader are overwritten by the settings from the
renderer. But I can't figure out how this happens in all cases.
- Fade out is completely disabled. I think this is fine because the
performance difference isn't bad. But if you are comparing screenshots
with PCSX2, it will make things look a tiny bit different.
There are *a lot* of file changes and while I have carefully gone
through every gsrc change to fix up manual patches, there might still be
spots that I missed.
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)
Support rendering eyes with merc for both jak 1 and jak 2.
For jak 1, everything should look the same, but merc will be used to
draw eyes. This means that jak is now fully drawn with merc!
For jak 2, eyes should draw, but there are still a few issues:
- the tbp/clut ptr trick is used a lot for these eye textures, so
there's a lot that use the wrong texture
- I had to enable a bunch more "texture uploads" (basically emulating
the ps2 texture system) in order to get the eyes to upload. It would be
much better if the eye renderer could somehow grab the texture from the
merc model info, skipping the vram addressing stuff entirely. I plan to
return to this.
- I disabled some sky draws in `sky-tng`. After turning on pris2
uploads, the sky flashed in a really annoying way.
I didn't actually visually notice much of a difference with these hacks
unlike in Jak 1, but I also avoided checking the missions thoroughly
since the game crashes very often right now.
Moves PC-specific entity and debug menu things to `entity-debug.gc` and
`default-menu-pc.gc` respectively and makes `(declare-file (debug))`
work as it should (no need to wrap the entire file in `(when
*debug-segment*` now!).
Also changes the DGO descriptor format so that it's less verbose. It
might break custom levels, but the format change is very simple so it
should not be difficult for anyone to update to the new format. Sadly,
you lose the completely useless ability to use DGO object names that
don't match the source file name. The horror!
I've also gone ahead and expanded the force envmap option to also force
the ripple effect to be active. I did not notice any performance or
visual drawbacks from this. Gets rid of some distracting LOD and some
water pools appearing super flat (and pitch back for dark eco).
Fixes#1424
This PR adds a feature to merc2 to update vertices. This will be needed
to efficient do effects like blerc/ripple/texture scroll. It's enabled
for blerc in jak 1 and jak 2, but with a few disclaimers:
- currently we still use the mips2c blerc implementation, which is slow
and has some "jittering" because of integer precision. When porting to
PC, there was an additional synchronization problem because blerc
overwrites the merc data as its being read by the renderers. I _think_
this wasn't an issue on PS2 because the blerc dma is higher priority
than the VIF1 DMA, but I'm not certain. Either way, I had to add a mutex
for this on PC to avoid very slight flickering/gaps. This isn't ideal
for performance, but still beats generic by a significant amount in
every place I tested. If you see merc taking 2ms to draw, it is likely
because it is stuck waiting on blerc to finish. This will go away once
blerc itself is ported to C++.
- in jak 1, we end up using generic in some cases where we could use
merc. In particular maia in village3 hut. This will be fixed later once
we can use merc in more places. I don't want to mess with the
merc/generic selection logic when we're hopefully going to get rid of it
soon.
- There is no support for ripple or texture scroll. These use generic on
jak 1, and remain broken on jak 2.
- Like with `emerc`, jak 1 has a toggle to go back to the old behavior
`*blerc-hack*`.
- In most cases, toggling this causes no visual differences. One
exception is Gol's teeth. I believe this is caused by texture coordinate
rounding issues, where generic has an additional float -> int -> float
compared to PC merc. It is very hard to notice so I'm not going to worry
about it.
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:
- decompile `subdivide`, `wind-work`, `tie-work`, `bsp`, `focus`
- support `ppacb` in compiler
- don't assert when bitfield stuff fails due to constant propgataion
weirdness
- finish up history
- div/mod unsigned assert fix in decompiler
- empty assert fix in decompiler for failed `add` type prop
- make jak 1 performance counters "work" (just measure time)
- fix cast/typos on pcgtb/vftoi15

Sometimes the game won't update the sine table on the same frame the aspect ratio changes (for example if the player is in a cutscene), but the renderer assumed that it was always up-to-date on the next frame. This caused it to occasionally use outdated vertex/tex coord data that usually made the distort sprites a little too small/big.
