- HTTP networking support, mods can be downloaded via the builtin downloader.
All network activity runs in a seperate thread, which is started
as soon as any network activity is requested.
- The master server is hard-coded to fg.wzff.de/aqmods/ if not specified otherwise;
this setting can be overridden in the config file.
- The mod selector screen is now a grid-view for much better navigation;
also works with joystick.
- VFS code is functionally similar to the old molebox-packed release
for win32. The game could also have its data shipped in a Zip file
or any other kind of archive.
- It is still possible to build without VFS support, but then the mod
downloader and soft-patching will not be available.

The most important commit messages follow:
[...]
This replaces all std::ifstream with InStream, and fopen(), ... with vfopen(), ...
Some code is #ifdef'd for better performance and less memory-copying.
VFILE is defined to whatever type of file is in use:
- FILE if BBGE_BUILD_VFS is not defined
- tttvfs::VFSFile if it is.
Other changes:
- [un]packFile() is now unused and obsolete. That code has not been adjusted to use VFILE.
- glpng can now load from a memory buffer.
- TinyXML uses the VFS for reading operations now.
- The rather clunky binary stream loading of glfont2 got replaced with ByteBuffer,
which gets its data in one block (necessary to use the VFS without implementing
a somewhat STL-compliant std::ifstream replacement.)
-------------
Implement loading mods from zip files.
-------------
Implement soft-patching game data files. (Replacing textures/audio/... on the fly)
-------------
Misc bits:
- Extended GUI focus handling a bit
- Fixed weirdness in texture loading... not sure but this seems more correct to me.
Actually, considering that the texture will have its native size after restarting the game,
the lines removed with this commit seem pretty useless.
This was removed in HG changeset 7ec478d993b7, and is now implemented
in a way that is better than before: voice overs and music
no longer cause decoding lag, as they are always decoded on-the-fly.
The additional memory use (~40 MB) should be no problem for anyone.
The default is still to decode everything on the fly.
Collision rendering is now mapped to Ctrl+Shift+Return instead of capslock.
Also fixed one float->int truncation in script interface,
and removed useless debug message when particle effect "" was supposed
to be spawned (but does never exist).
Script interface:
- entity_msg() will no longer corrupt the Lua stack if sending messages to itself.
- added more info to non-critical Lua errors ("attempt to call a nil value", etc)
- replaced many lua_tostring() with getString(), which does never return NULL.
This prevents possible crashes when a non-string parameter is passed to functions
expecting a string.
Misc:
- Removed classes BoxElement, DFSprite, Datafile, and related references.
They were essentially unused.
- Removed unused Element class member variables.
- Show more lines in the in-game console.
- Removed some unused member variables.
- The BBGE_BUILD_WIDESCREEN define is now gone.
- Added an TiXMLDocument cache to prevent parsing the same file
once for each entity on the map with the same skeletal.
- Removed Lua func entity_warpToPathStart, which was essentially a no-op
because Entity::followingPath was always NULL. Removed related code.
- Set texture wrap only when required.
(Some changes taken from https://bitbucket.org/mattbierner/ios-aquaria,
special thanks for changeset 72d6460d9e60)
Also simplified .zga texture and .aqs savegame loading.
Dropped support for "crunched" .sav files (those were never used),
and the corresponding crunch functions.
To be done: Temp files are still used when compressing files,
will address this in a later commit.
The pool adjusts to the amount of required threads.
The implementation is as simple as possible, but should be enough
for future extensions.
This brings down decoder thread creation/destruction even more.
Also fix OpenALSystem::release() to close channels properly on shutdown,
otherwise it would deadlock with the pool, because it waits until all
threads have died off, which did not necessarily happen.
This patch adds the functionality of the removed hack added in 07bc370c1680,
but without the runtime performance impact.
OT_* obstruction types are now a bitmask; as a side effect,
Game::baseGrid is no longer needed, which reduces memory usage by
4 MB.
The latter one caused sounds in mods not being properly cached (and not
played), if the internal mod path started with "./", which is the case
on windows since an earlier commit.
Because of wrongly set firstFreeIdx some pointers were NULL, where they
shouldn't be, which caused hard to track down crashes.
This is an addition to af04d0c37698.
- BBGE_BUILD_SHADERS defined
- Blur enabled in config
- Entering a "warplocalnode"-Node while taking damage
These conditions caused it to enable shader related code while taking the
screenshot for the warp transition, that caused a crash because the shader-
related gl*() function pointers were not initialzed, because the current
code never loads any shaders.
- Pointer typechecks are now enabled by default.
- enabled all script warnings for non-FULL or DEMO builds by default
- Added generic obj_* functions that operate on any type of RenderObject.
These give quite low-level control about the renderer, and are quite
dangerous too.
Subsequently, many functions sharing the same code (*_setPosition, for example)
could be removed, and simply call the generic functions after a type check.
- Added interface function deathNotify(). The original logic of death
notifiers was never used, so i thought i'd make use of it.
This is useful in scripts to safely drop dangling pointers.
- removed sendEntityMessage, entity_setCollideWithAvatar, entity_setTouchDamage,
which were essentially no-ops.
- Replaced all unnecessary luaReturnNum(0) and luaReturnInt(0),
now it does only push a return value on the stack if the function
is actually supposed to have a retun value.
- Allow variadic calling of entity_msg(). Now any parameters can be passed
to the function, and the target entity will receive all of them.
Any values returned from the entity's msg() callback will be returned
by entity_msg() to the original caller. This allows nice RPC-like
entity communication.
- fixed possible crash in debugLog, bone_update, entity_debugText
- added an override function for loadfile() that is case-insensitive like dofile()
- entity_createEntity returns the created entity now
- spawnParticleEffect returns the associated RenderObject
- Added some text rendering functions
- Added beam_setFirer()
- removed the underflow check in avatar_decrLeaches() I added earlier
- added a panic function for Lua.
- added the Lua debug library
- fixed a stupid typo in ScriptObject::isType() that made the type checks a lot less accurate
- misc stuff I forgot
- Spend less time starting up when not compiled with AQUARIA_FULL/DEMO
- removed entity_setTouchDamage and bone_setTouchDamage, the used variable was never read
- repositioned debug overlay texts, that they are not in the way on wide resolutions
- show used Lua memory in debug text
- very slow slowmo on Shift+F devkey
- fixed RenderObject::isfhr()/isfvr() to be really recursive
(they were never used until the animation editor fixes - this rotates
bones on one or more h.flipped parents in the same direction as
never h.flipped ones)
- removed some unused stuff
Bone positioning now takes into account its parent's absolute rotation,
and compensates it. That means bones with rotated parents follow exactly
the mouse when dragged, instead of going anywhere except where they should.
Repaired selecting bones with the mouse, and made that the default
(can be switched to keyboard with M key).
The timeline grid size and timestep unit size are now variable,
and can be changed with the U, I, O, P keys or the added UI buttons.
Bone borders and joint points can be displayed with B key.
Removed the ignorebone0 button and related functionality.
Minor cosmetical things.
- fixed warning about PlaySfx::handle
- fixed displaying subtitles - if the path was not full lowercase it didn't find its txt files.
- CMake: removed SDLMAIN_FOUND, which is seemingly only defined on windows and does more harm than good.
- glpng: always use new libpng API (fixes windows build)
This commit introduces pointer checks to various functions;
so that entity_* will no longer crash or produce weird results
if passed a Node pointer, etc.
The checks are disabled by default, but can be enabled in
ScriptInterface.cpp.
Fixed possible crashes in a few more functions due to missing NULL-checks.
There was a "feature" in the single Lua state that it would keep globals
intact until the game was quit. That made any globals from mods "leak"
into the game or other mods. Now it resets the Lua state when a mod
is loaded or closed.
- Vector interpolation. Also removed unused interpolation trigger events.
- GridRender::onRender() (removed Andrew's hack, use fixed map file!)
- make use of glVertex3i() & memchr() in GridRender
- very minor misc things
- Vector interpolation. Also removed unused interpolation trigger events.
- Game::collideCircleWithGrid()
- GridRender::onRender() (removed Andrew's hack, use fixed map file!)
- make use of glVertex3i() & memchr() in GridRender
Apparently this was half implemented but not fully finished.
Mono samples work fine, for stereo, L/R panning does not work (due to OpenAL's limitation)
Also fixed: entity sounds should not play if a cutscene is currently skipped.
This allows reconstructing the map templates, which were never shipped with the game.
This patch also fixes insane memory leaking when taking screenshots, or dumping screen frames.
