This is primarily driven for proper mod-support. Mods would like to
isolate their settings and saves (potentially) and that is currently
done by find-and-replacing code before building. Bad!
Additionally, this has the side-effect of allowing for portable
installations of the game so, win-win.
Testing in progress, i'll merge once it is ready.
Patching up the extractor while working on the launcher, fixes:
- makes it so you can compile successfully given a folder path
(currently assumes your project path contains `iso_data`)
- ignore `buildinfo.json` from validation code.
- fixes an edge-case that could recursively fill up your entire
hard-drive!
- allows overriding the decompilation configuration via flag
- adds a way to specify where the ISO should be extracted to
This includes all the collision stuff needed to spawn `target`,
decompiles the sparticle code and adds some of the PC hacks needed for
merc to run (it doesn't work quite right and looks bad, likely due to a
combination of code copied from Jak 2 and the time of day hacks).
There are a bunch of temporary hacks (see commits) in place to prevent
the game from crashing quite as much, but it is still extremely prone to
doing so due to lots of missing functions/potentially bad decomp.

The `test-play` macro is back, though it doesn't call `play` yet. We can
at least load all of `game.cgo`, which involves loading a lot of the
code we've decompiled, loading/linking objects files compiled by
OpenGOAL (like dir-tpages), and loading/linking Jak's art-groups (for
jak 3 they are stored v5 format that I added to the linker).
There were no major issues - just a few forgotten mips2c entries and
minor bugs/functions that needed stubs. Most of the work was updating
the linker. Hopefully I'll never have to touch that code again - I think
it supports everything we need for jak 3!
This is not a fix, but it temporarily works around the potential crash
discussed here https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project/issues/2988
As long as this doesn't impact other things, this feels like a good
interim fix, as having a broken cutscene is better than a fatal crash
and it might be some time before this is properly identified and fixed.
This updates `fmt` to the latest version and moves to just being a copy
of their repo to make updating easier (no editing their cmake / figuring
out which files to minimally include).
The motivation for this is now that we switched to C++ 20, there were a
ton of deprecated function usages that is going away in future compiler
versions. This gets rid of all those warnings.
During level extraction, the last 4 characters of the level name are
always removed, because it is assumed that '-vis' is there. But it isn't
always there. This is especially true in post-TPL games.
This causes multiple problems:
- There can be levels in the extraction that will miss their last 4
characters from their name, which is sad, and may make it harder to
identify them.
- If there are '-vis'-less levels whose names are identical apart from
the last 4 characters, the extractor will only get the last one (it
probably extracts all but overwrites everything but the last one). For
example 'ctyasha' and 'ctykora'.
This issue affects the glb extraction and the entities json extraction.
I personally think that just keeping the -vis in the name would be the
best solution, but I guess there was a reason why it was decided that it
should be removed from the name. So to adapt to this, my implementation
will still remove '-vis' from the name, but only if it is actually in
the name - otherwise it won't remove anything.
I hope my changes didn't break anything. Extraction seemed to run fine
after my changes, and I was able to see both ctyasha and ctykora json
files. And didn't see any '-vis', so it is still properly removed.

It was narrowed down recently that a lot of people have issues with the
controller input because of Steam Input working as intended. Steam Input
can be configured to replicate controller inputs as keyboard inputs (for
example, pressing X on your controller presses Enter on the keyboard).
This results in the problem of "jumping pauses the game" and similar
issues. This is a consequence of the intended behaviour of the game
listening to all input sources at the same time.
Since the vast majority of players are using controllers over keyboards,
it makes sense to disable the keyboard input by default to solve this
problem. However that makes things awkward for users that want to use
the keyboard (how do they enable the setting). The solution is a new
imgui option in the settings menu:
**Known issue that I don't care about** -- in Jak 1's menu code, since
the flags are controlled by pointers to values instead of a lambda like
in jak 2, the menu won't update live with the imgui option. This has no
functional impact and I don't care enough to fix it.
I also made the pc-settings.gc file persist on first load if the file
wasn't found. Hopefully this helps diagnose the support issues related
to the black screen.
# Why not just ignore the keyboard inputs for a period of time?
This won't work, the keyboard is polled every frame. Therefore if you
hold down the X button on your controller, steam is continuously
signaling that `Enter` is held down on the keyboard.
Yes it would be possible to completely disable the keyboard while the
controller is being used, but this defeats the purpose of creating an
input system that allows multiple input sources at the same time.
With an explicit option, not only can the user decide the behaviour they
want (do they want the keyboard ignored or simultaneously listened to)
but we avoid breaking strange edge-cases in usage leading to never
ending complexity:
- ie. imagine steam input sends events to the mouse, well you can't
disable the mouse while using the keyboard because most times people are
using mouse and keyboard
- ie. a user that wants to hold a direction with the keyboard and press
buttons on the controller in tandem (something i frequently do while
TAS'ing, to move in a perfect straight line)
- Wired up the menu settings to change the settings in game, not just on
boot
- Removed all the duplication in the game options menu code
- Fixed the mouse code so that it properly brings the virtual analog
stick back to neutral when the mouse stops
- Extended the sensitivity min/max for those that want to ensure the
slightest movement maxes out virtual analog stick.
While trying to narrow down why sometimes SDL takes 20-40seconds to
initialize I built up some more profiling features.
TLDR - I still don't know why SDL is taking a long time but I've
narrowed it down to it initializing the `GAME_CONTROLLER` subsystem.
This isn't unprecedented, I found numerous github issues and articles
suggesting this is the problem:
I imagine it is hardware/OS related on some level, there are even some
recent commits in SDL that have made it worse on certain platforms. I've
had this problem myself so I will hope to get it again soon so i can
debug where in the SDL code the delay occurs and make a proper bug
report. Hopefully this helps but it's not yet confirmed -
https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project/pull/3384
I finally read through all the joint code and wrote up some
documentation. I think this will be really helpful when we try to
understand all the functions in `process-drawable`, or if somebody ever
wants to import/export animations.
This switches all three games to using a new faster GOAL joint
decompressor. It is on by default, but you can go back to the old
version by setting `*use-new-decompressor*` to false.
Also fix the log-related crash, fix the clock speed used in timer math.
This sets up the C Kernel for Jak 3, and makes it possible to build and
load code built with `goalc --jak3`.
There's not too much interesting here, other than they switched to a
system where symbol IDs (unique numbers less than 2^14) are generated at
compile time, and those get included in the object file itself.
This is kind of annoying, since it means all tools that produce a GOAL
object file need to work together to assign unique symbol IDs. And since
the symbol IDs can't conflict, and are only a number between 0 and 2^14,
you can't just hash and hope for no collisions.
We work around this by ignoring the IDs and re-assigning our own. I
think this is very similar to what the C Kernel did on early builds of
Jak 3 which supported loading old format level files, which didn't have
the IDs included.
As far as I can tell, this shouldn't cause any problems. It defeats all
of their fancy tricks to save memory by not storing the symbol string,
but we don't care.
This sets out the bones of a Jak 3 build, many things are stubbed out,
guessed, or copied from Jak 2 but it should at least be good enough to:
run `task set-game-jak3`
launch the repl
run builds from the repl
build outputs themselves are untested but the build itself runs without
errors

This is the more correct way of doing what that code is trying to do.
Fixes#3296
Also fixed some type inconsistencies with related code, probably wasn't
causing issues though.
May also fix the "black screen on startup" issues people keep having,
but that would simply be a nice bonus and isn't the aim of this PR.
The logger used in `goalc` tries to print an already-formatted string
`message` using `fmt::print(message);` Usually this doesn't cause
problems, but if you try to print, for example, an exception that has
special characters (notably `{`) it will try to do another round of
formatting/replacements, despite not having any args to replace with,
which ends up throwing another exception. This is why errors when
parsing custom level JSON cause the REPL to exit.
I've hopefully identified all the various instances of this across the
codebase
Currently only tracks enemy kills, and how they were killed. There is
currently no menu for this, but I've already added most of the text for
it. Also did a bunch of misc decompilation fixes and renamed some
methods.
Fixes#3277Fixes#3278
This was just not implemented end to end. There are still two notable
issues, one that I can live with, one I need to narrow down eventually:
1. Rebinding confirm buttons with trigger (ie. X) behaviour is not 100%
as it should be. I fixed it enough that I can live with it but it's
still not proper. The difficulty is that unlike a button it will
re-trigger the pressed state on the journey back to neutral (aka
unpressed).
2. If you change the bind for the confirm button, then reset your
bindings, the next confirm input is eaten. This is unrelated to these
changes but I briefly looked into it and was unable to find the root
cause.
Adds the opengoal cheats to the secrets menu. Only cheats that are fully
functional and unlockable are there right now, which is eight cheats.
This update will reset most Jak 2 settings.
Also fixes#3274 .
Boards that have no runs yet look kinda awkward but i'd rather just wait
until those fill out (won't take long) rather than add another string to
be translated.
This should avoid the stuttering due to slow unloading on some drivers.
I also turned up the amount of stuff we load per frame since nobody has
been complaining about stutters there, but there has been a few cases of
levels loading in too slowly.
(this only changes graphics, not actual GOAL level load times).
Makes the glow sprite renderer flush when full capacity is reached,
instead of at the end. Also allows us to reduce the textures used for it
(finally). Worst case scenario there's 4-5 flushes per frame.
Fixes incessant flickering in the dig.
Switches the slime look up table to be a texture, since I guess intel
drivers are terrible and putting the array in the shader makes it
extremely slow.
Also, a few minor changes:
- removed art-groups from the test-zone levels since this causes the
compiler to re-decompile the game, and makes the launcher slower. (left
it in commented out)
- Switched `decompile_code` to false by default in jak 2, in case people
run the decompiler and don't want to wait forever
- Fixed build warnings
