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)
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.
Ports some of the custom PC port debugging code from Jak 1, such as the
entity debugger, Anim Tester X and part tester, to Jak 2 and gives the
PC menu code the same treatment Jak 1 received recently in #2216.
Some adjustments have been made to make things work in Jak 2 and some
stuff is still incomplete.
The majority of the default PC menu code has been left commented out in
preparation for @ManDude's plan to port the rest of the Jak 1 `pckernel`
features to Jak 2.
Also adds the code for `palace-scenes` to gsrc as that seems to have
been missed.
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.
Notable things:
- This assert is hit when trying to save the pc-settings file, NYI
e630b50690/game/kernel/common/Symbol4.h (L14)
so right now settings aren't persisted. But RPC defaults to on
- The existing functions can probably be made generic based off the game
version, but I didn't spend time refactoring them yet as they aren't
really ready to be used in jak 2 yet (we have no screenshots for the
levels for example)
Supports most of the grain types now while maintaining compatibility
with the old stuff (at least the subset of things jak1 uses)
Would benefit from some testing in Jak 1 to make sure I didn't break
anything.
Sorry the git history is a mess, I'll do something about it later.
This PR does a few main things:
- finish decompiling the progress related code
- implemented changes necessary to load the text files end-to-end
- japanese/korean character encodings were not added
- finish more camera code, which is required to spawn the progress menu
/ init the default language settings needed for text
- initialized the camera as well
Still havn't opened the menu as there are a lot of checks around
`*target*` which I havn't yet gone through and attempted to comment out.
A few issues:
- lwidea's fr3 is getting loaded and unloaded all the time
- the debug line drawing clipping is wrong (doesn't seem wrong in pcsx2,
so I think this is on us)
- nothing actually using vis data yet
- at a large distance, our view frustum culling seems slightly too
aggressive (might be that viewport scissoring is wrong)
- in the city, things seem darker as you move away. unclear how this is
happening (fog?)
eg
```
(set! (-> obj sound-pre-open) (static-sound-spec "airlock-slider"))
```
it is the same as jak 1, but the `fo-curve` option is set to 1
sometimes.
- 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
