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.
My mistake -- testing focused too much on preserving the existing
behaviour I clearly forgot to make sure the new stuff worked properly.
Just had to early out and not modify the args if they were in the new
format.
This fixes the issue where elevators leave you behind (stack structure
related)
At the same time I cleaned up some things I found along the way, most
notably changing `script-context`'s `basic` field to `object` as
non-basics use this method as well.
Fixes#2305
An attempt to cleanup the last CLI interface we have left to cleanup.
- `gk` args now follow the typical convention ie. `--proj-path` instead
of `-proj-path`.
- args that are passed through to the rest of the application / the
game's runtime use the typical convention of following a `--`
- I'm thinking some args shouldn't be handled at this level ie
(`-nodisplay`, `-vm`, `-novm` or `-jak2`) These could be better
documented as legitimate flags and passed in via a nice struct. They
don't seem to be used in `InitParams` but I'll triple check.
There's a temporary shim here so there is no coupled release with the
launcher (right now it executes `gk` with a few args). So I just change
the old args into the new format. After one release cycle, I can change
it in the launcher and delete it here.
I am unsure if this will break the bash shellscript usages -- not sure
which args were usually passed into `$@`
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)
Reasons for doing so include:
1. This should stop the confusion around editing the wrong config file's
flags -- when for example, extracting a level. Common settings can be in
one central place, with bespoke overrides being provided for each
version
2. Less verbose way of supporting multiple game versions. You don't have
to duplicate the entire `type_casts` file for example, just add or
override the json objects required.
3. Makes the folder structure consistent, Jak 1's `all-types` is now in
a `jak1` folder, etc.
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.
This gets rid of the `auto-lt` and `auto-dbg` CLI args to `goalc` that
have been marked deprecated for a month or so at this point. The
behaviour can be replicated via the `startup.gc` file.
I also removed `decompiler_out/` and `log/` from the repo, as our C++
code is smart enough to create these directories if they are missing now
so they are superfluous
Work in progress minimap. Known issues:
- "path finding" doesn't appear to work - it gets stuck forever in many
cases
- some nasty patches around timer-based code
- jak arrow blending issues
- would be nice to make it higher resolution
if the search is forced to terminate due to iteration/time limits, the
icon is not in the right place
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.
Some backtraces are quite large, an option is to increase your terminal
buffer -- but dumping to a file is also useful if you want to share the
crash.
I'm not crazy about the way I hacked this in, but it felt like the least
invasive way for now and I don't want to cause a regression with the
debugger. It's also nice that it dumps with ansi colors as then you can
view the backtrace with the original coloring:
Usage:
```clj
(:di "./stacktrace.log")
```
Fix crash when the game tries to spawn `jellyfish` in Underport and
temporarily disable the rendering of the warp effect until it's properly
implemented.
- Disable depth test for sprite glow (VU1 programs only `sq.xy` and
leaves `z` alone, which has Z_MAX from the template)
- Fix tfrag/tie/shrub issues when `use-camera-other` is set.
Where applicable, of course.
My system language is set to English so I actually can't test this. If
anyone has their Windows language (NOT LOCALE) set to Spanish, German,
French, Italian or Japanese please test this.
Fixes#1734
Also fixes the opengoal debugger on Windows and fixes the decomp for
`menu` which was causing some crashes related to input handling.
`*alert-level-settings*` was actually an inline array and we were
indexing past the end of it.
I think this will fix some of the strange on-foot guard behavior too.
Increase level heaps and borrow heaps. The level heap increase was
likely not needed, but better safe than sorry. We allocate the 128 MB
main heap anyway so there's no harm.
Also fix the crash when using `-boot`. As I thought it was just a
one-line typo in the kernel.
Fixes the aspect ratio of the font renderer (Jak 2 does not need the
same hacks as Jak 1), the custom letterbox/pillarbox sizes and fixes the
heap display.

Adds the `pckernel` system to Jak 2, allowing you to do the PC-specific
things that Jak 1 lets you do like change game resolution, etc.
In other to reduce the amount of code duplication for something that
we're gonna be changing a lot over time, I split it into a few more code
files. In this new system, `pckernel-h.gc`, `pckernel-common.gc`
(previously `pckernel.gc`) and `pc-debug-common.gc` are the files that
should be shared across all games (I hacked the Jak 2 project to pull
these files from the Jak 1 folder), while `pckernel-impl.gc`,
`pckernel.gc` and `pc-debug-methods.gc` are their respective
game-specific counterparts that should be loaded after. I'm not fully
happy with this, I think it's slightly messy, but it cleanly separates
code that should be game-specific and not accidentally copied around and
code that should be the same for all games anyway.
