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)
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 .
Major change to how `deftype` shows up in our code:
- the decompiler will no longer emit the `offset-assert`,
`method-count-assert`, `size-assert` and `flag-assert` parameters. There
are extremely few cases where having this in the decompiled code is
helpful, as the types there come from `all-types` which already has
those parameters. This also doesn't break type consistency because:
- the asserts aren't compared.
- the first step of the test uses `all-types`, which has the asserts,
which will throw an error if they're bad.
- the decompiler won't emit the `heap-base` parameter unless necessary
now.
- the decompiler will try its hardest to turn a fixed-offset field into
an `overlay-at` field. It falls back to the old offset if all else
fails.
- `overlay-at` now supports field "dereferencing" to specify the offset
that's within a field that's a structure, e.g.:
```lisp
(deftype foobar (structure)
((vec vector :inline)
(flags int32 :overlay-at (-> vec w))
)
)
```
in this structure, the offset of `flags` will be 12 because that is the
final offset of `vec`'s `w` field within this structure.
- **removed ID from all method declarations.** IDs are only ever
automatically assigned now. Fixes#3068.
- added an `:overlay` parameter to method declarations, in order to
declare a new method that goes on top of a previously-defined method.
Syntax is `:overlay <method-name>`. Please do not ever use this.
- added `state-methods` list parameter. This lets you quickly specify a
list of states to be put in the method table. Same syntax as the
`states` list parameter. The decompiler will try to put as many states
in this as it can without messing with the method ID order.
Also changes `defmethod` to make the first type definition (before the
arguments) optional. The type can now be inferred from the first
argument. Fixes#3093.

Adds controller LED features to Jak 2:
- progressive flickering denoting health
- copies tomb simon says puzzle colors
- unique colors for each gun
- orange color for being indax
- yellow color for being in mech
- purple color for being darkjak
- blue color for being in board
- red flash when wanted.
May add more features later?
Also did some minor clean-up on some types.
- fix deci2 hang when closing the game in retail mode.
- change bigmap to always filter because the pixels look really ugly.
- don't start the game in fullscreen by default if we're debugging.

Adds support for adding custom subtitles to Jak 2 audio. Comes with a
new editor for the new system and format. Compared to the Jak 1 system,
this is much simpler to make an editor for.
Comes with a few subtitles already made as an example.
Cutscenes are not officially supported but you can technically subtitle
those with editor, so please don't right now.
This new system supports multiple subtitles playing at once (even from a
single source!) and will smartly push the subtitles up if there's a
message already playing:
Unlike in Jak 1, it will not hide the bottom HUD when subtitles are
active:
Sadly this leaves us with not much space for the subtitle region (and
the subtitles are shrunk when the minimap is enabled) but when you have
guards and citizens talking all the time, hiding the HUD every time
anyone spoke would get really frustrating.
The subtitle speaker is also color-coded now, because I thought that
would be fun to do.
TODO:
- [x] proper cutscene support.
- [x] merge mode for cutscenes so we don't have to rewrite the script?

Gives proper names to almost every color. It is very apparent that some
colors are context-sensitive/made for a specific purpose, so those
colors were named after that purpose instead of a generic color name.
Updates the decompiler for the new format and there's new macros. This
new format should be easier to read/parse.
Also rewrote `sp-init-fields!` (both jak 1 and 2) from assembly to GOAL.
Hopefully I did not miss any regressions in Jak 1/2 while updating the
files, it's a lot.
