In the original game, they had no choice but to use the memory card file
as their method of persisting settings. We are not limited by such
things.
It's inconvenient to have to load your save-file when launching the game
to initialize these settings to your liking, it's also confusing
behaviour to even some players that have played the game heavily for
over a decade. We can do better by globally saving these settings to the
`pc-settings` file instead.
Originally I only migrated the volume settings, then i figured it would
be nice to also have play-hints and subtitles settings persisted. More
could debatably be moved (language is a big one...) but these were the
low hanging fruit.
I also reduced the default volumes as that is something else that has
come up a few times.

These users have the following spamming in logs:

Source and destination dimensions must be identical with the current
filtering modes.
And the solution is to correctly set their game-size. The way this
change accomplishes that is by confirming whether or not the set
`game-size` is a valid resolution informed by SDL, if not, it defaults
to the monitor's currently set display mode's resolution.
This also moves the selected display id, and the display mode into the
C++ settings -- closer to where it's actually managed and used. I'm
tempted to do this eventually for the resolutions as well but that stuff
is much more burdensome. This hopefully simplifies debugging, reduces
startup flickering, and removes back-and-forth complexity. Hopefully
this makes debugging display related problems easier. It also adds a
bunch more logging to the related code.
This does a couple of things:
- The `custom_levels` folder was renamed to `custom_assets` and contains
`levels`, `models` and `texture_replacements` folders for Jak 1, 2 and 3
in order to keep everything regarding custom stuff in one place.
- With this, texture replacements now use separate folders for all games
- A build actor tool was added that generates art groups for custom
actors
- Custom levels can now specify what custom models from the `models`
folder they want to import, this will add them to the level's FR3.
- A `test-zone-obs.gc` file was added, containing a `test-actor` process
that uses a custom model as an example.
The build actor tool is still very WIP, the joints and the default
animation are hardcoded, but it allows for importing any GLB file as a
merc model.
Relates to #1353
This adds no new functionality or overhead to the compiler, yet. This is
the preliminary work that has:
- added code to the compiler in several spots to flag when something is
used without being properly required/imported/whatever (disabled by
default)
- that was used to generate project wide file dependencies (some
circulars were manually fixed)
- then that graph underwent a transitive reduction and the result was
written to all `jak1` source files.
The next step will be making this actually produce and use a dependency
graph. Some of the reasons why I'm working on this:
- eliminates more `game.gp` boilerplate. This includes the `.gd` files
to some extent (`*-ag` files and `tpage` files will still need to be
handled) this is the point of the new `bundles` form. This should make
it even easier to add a new file into the source tree.
- a build order that is actually informed from something real and
compiler warnings that tell you when you are using something that won't
be available at build time.
- narrows the search space for doing LSP actions -- like searching for
references. Since it would be way too much work to store in the compiler
every location where every symbol/function/etc is used, I have to do
ad-hoc searches. By having a dependency graph i can significantly reduce
that search space.
- opens the doors for common shared code with a legitimate pattern.
Right now jak 2 shares code from the jak 1 folder. This is basically a
hack -- but by having an explicit require syntax, it would be possible
to reference arbitrary file paths, such as a `common` folder.
Some stats:
- Jak 1 has about 2500 edges between files, including transitives
- With transitives reduced at the source code level, each file seems to
have a modest amount of explicit requirements.
Known issues:
- Tracking the location for where `defmacro`s and virtual state
definitions were defined (and therefore the file) is still problematic.
Because those forms are in a macro environment, the reader does not
track them. I'm wondering if a workaround could be to search the
reader's text_db by not just the `goos::Object` but by the text
position. But for the purposes of finishing this work, I just statically
analyzed and searched the code with throwaway python code.
This fixes issues with certain Jak 3 levels not rendering because there
is a mismatch between the DGO name, nickname and real level name (bsp
name).
FR3s use a different filename, so you can delete the ones you have after
this is merged.
This affects custom levels, but I don't have that toolchain set up so
someone else will have to test that.
Reverse engineer the skinning matrix calculation and port to GOAL. This
is about 3x faster than the MIPS2c version.
As usual, there is a `*use-new-bones*` flag to go back to the old
version.
Fix for a bug in the compiler's `.div.vf` implementation (only happens
if src/dst are the same), and fix for a typo in the register allocator
that would sometimes cause it not to consider xmm8-xmm15.
Removes trailing whitespace from goal_src files, eventually the
formatter will do this as well but it's not ready yet so this is a
decent interim solution.
A competent text editor will also do this / flag it for you.
For example, `AppData/OpenGOAL/jak2/features/speedrun-categories.json`
is defined as such:

The game stores the last 3 frames of input (50ms of time at 60fps) and
often checks if a button was pressed within those 3 saved frames as a
condition.
When transitioning states, it often checks if some input was received
during the previous state (within those 3 frames) in order to quickly
transition out. A good example of this is when transitioning to
standing, it checks if you can jump this frame and if you had pressed X
recently, and if so, transition immediately to jump. This allows
transitions between states to feel more smooth/forgiving by letting you
jump at a later time when you are transitioning from falling->standing
than if you were only falling.
At 165fps the last 3 frames is only 18ms of time so the input windows
for these smooth transitions are almost 3x shorter.
This PR saves 15 input frames (enough to cover 50ms of time at 300fps)
for each controller and adds a (recently-pressed?) macro that checks all
15 frames. However, it only updates the necessary frames in history
based on the current frame rate. This way, 60fps continues to only check
against 3 input frames, 165fps checks against 9, 240fps checks against
12, and 300fps checks all 15.

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)
The bind carried forward from Jak 1 is annoying -- R1 shoots the gun.
Allow the user to use whatever button combination they want by modifying
it in the `pc-settings` file.
```clj
(controller-led-status? 1360729)
(speedrunner-mode-custom-bind 4098)
```
- 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.
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 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.
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
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 .
