Fixes#2530
Doesn't actually do anything in Jak 2 because the collide mesh isn't
extracted, but the functionality is all there. Also updated the renderer
a bit to keep the colors more readable.
Cleans up every `dummy-*` and `TODO-RENAME-*` method up with either
proper names or by renaming them to `[type-name]-method-[method-id]`
similar to Jak 2's `all-types`.
Also fixes the bad format string in `collide-cache` and adds the event
handler hack to Jak 1.
The game boots and runs fine, but I might have missed a PAL patch or
other manual patches here and there, please double-check if possible.
The last of the missions that had a missing file.
I manually fixed some casting related to a `handle->process`, since this
is the last file...whatever not worth stressing about. But probably an
issue that will crop up in the future.

- decompile `neon-baron-part`, which also has the hideout door for some
reason
- improve a few error messages in static data decompilation
- fix bug with disabling fog in merc
Add the vortex renderer. The vortex texture isn't there yet (it uses the
same texture as clouds), so it uses a checkerboard. But the
colors/vertices seem right.
Unsure what hacks or type casts might eventually be needed for the PAL
version, but these changes are enough to get things to extract and run
the game (though the extract phase requires iso_data to be in a jak2_pal
folder, but the build still looks for jak2 in iso_data and
decompiler_out).
- 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)
Fixes some mistakes with merc draw modes. The glass in the palace level
no longer writes to the depth buffer (it's "water"):

Also fixes the one-frame flickers when level draw orders change. We
might be able to make this more efficient in the future, but this will
at least fix the frame with nothing drawn.
Actors that use types from a level that got unloaded should now get
killed immediately instead of continuing to exist and eventually crash
the game.
NOTE: Will spam the console whenever a bad actor tries to spawn. I would
like to document all instances of where this happens!
This should fix a bunch of texture-related issues by generating a table
of overlapping textures and just... adjusting them slightly so they
don't overlap. It's not the most elegant solution in the world, but I
think it's no worse than the existing hard-coded tpage dir stuff.
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.
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
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.
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.
