This change was planned for a long time. This moves all REGISTER calls to a single translation unit, this is required as we currently added a very dirty workaround for not registering duplicates by checking if VFTable pointer was already present in the vector... Registering from single translation unit prevents duplicate instances that gets created if header is included by more cpp files.
Reworking this reduced 100kb+ of compiled code. This commit also reworked the way functions/variables/constant gets logged with their addresses; the new code formats them on the fly, and allows for resize at any time. Formatting is no longer required by programmer.
TODO: currently there are some compile errors for dedicated and client dll's. These will be resolved very soon as they need to be properly worked out still (server & client only stuff needs to be properly split). Use the 'main' (stable) branch for the time being if you need to compile these dll's.
This is required as we still have a very hacky approach for running 'custom' BSP files. Even though we are pretty much ready to move over the proper approach, we haven't been able to update all files yet. This is kept in place but will have to be deprecated and removed among with the MaterialSystem hack before the next release.
Previously we used Json, however the rest of the game features KeyValues. I changed the system to feature KeyValues instead, to maintain consistency. Also improved the logic behind loading/parsing so we don't reparse the same level settings file if the pointer is still valid and we are on the same level.
The behavior has been changed; when a material is missing and bComplain is false, nothing gets printed to the console unless 'mat_alwaysComplain' is nonzero.
This commit implements missing material error logging.
When a material does not exist, it will get replaced with an error material, we log which material is missing, and with which error material it gets replaced with.
This commit also comes with some updates regarding the CMaterialGlue class, and some new types used by this class from the RePak project.
CMaterial and CMaterialGlue derive from the same abstract classes. The function that builds the culling map uses IMaterialInternal, which is used by CMaterial, CMaterialInternal and CMaterialSubRect. Added a check for CMaterialGlue as these are valid too.
Some CMaterial instances are allocated on the heap, and we only check for bounds in .data/.pdata. Checking bounds is cheap, checking valid ptr's is not. However we are lucky most of the data is within the segments, so running this isn't too costly.
This fixes the problem where the large leaf model in worlds edge was missing.
* Fix all compiler error for GameSDK on S0 and S1.
* Remove some unused patterns and globals (launch performance gains of 100ms).
* Remove most duplicate patterns.
* Relocate globals from engine to a more appropriate location.
* Renamed some unknown vars to a more appropriate name (most of these where obtained a while back, but as we reversed more parts of the engine, some of these vars become known).
* Renamed some vars to fit the naming convention used in the SDK.
* Fixed pattern debug logging using the wrong pointer, thus displaying the wrong address.
* Use GetVirtualMethodTable for VFTable pointers.
* Pack CClientState to 4 bytes (this aligns it properly in memory).
* Use CClientState members directly for setting m_bRestrictServerCommands/m_bRestrictClientCommands.
* Use c++ methods as much as possible.
* Use enum types for accessing NavMesh objects from array.
* Use size_t for for loops when testing against size types.
* Don't compute strlen twice of more on the same string.
* Don't use unnecessary c string casts if there is a method with a std::string overload.
* Don't create string objects from string pointers if we could use them directly.
* Don't initialize RCON password twice on each change, and don't set if the new password equals the old.
* Added RPakAssetBinding_t.
* Added RPakUnknownStruct_t
* PatternScan the global RPakUnknownStruct_t.
* Renamed Members of CMaterialGlue
* RTechTextureInfo_t now has another unknown member named.
* Added RTech::LoadShaderSet for the asset load routine
* Grabbing CShaderGlue::SetupShader and CShaderGlue::m_pVTable dynamically now
* Everything verified for every season, cross-compatible!
Moved logging functions to dbg.h (tier0) and export them from the dll.
Added additional functions for checking bad pointers (debug only!).
Reduced output code size.
