Covertity is complaining about portions of the verts array being uninitialized, so this is just a quick change to initialize the array first before doing anything else.
This is a system for storing arbitrary data in the config file and then
easily retrieving it later on. This has full Lua support for exposing
the available options in a custom UI and changing the values of the
options. This ported some of the existing command line options over to
the new system which is opt-in for the moment by using a mod_table flag.
This introduces a new mechanism for handling bit flags. Instead of using an int (or two, or three) to write bits into, this uses the std::bitset in a wrapper class that accepts an enum class as input. This means that certain classes of errors we've had a few of in the engine, where a coder used the wrong set of flags or checked them against the wrong variable (SF_STEALTH vs SIF_STEALTH, for example) can now be detected at a compiler level rather than not at all.
remove two old/unused MR flags (MR_ALWAYS_REDRAW, used for caching that doesn't work; MR_SHOW_DAMAGE, didn't do anything)
add MR_FULL_DETAIL to render an object regardless of render/detail box setting
change "model_current_LOD" to a global "Interp_detail_level" and the static "Interp_detail_level" to "Interp_detail_level_locked", a bit more descriptive
minor bits of cleanup
change a couple of vm_vec_scale_add2() calls to just vm_vec_add2() calls in ship.cpp, since that was the final result anyway
- very minor performance boost from not doing stupid things :)
- minor change to 3d shockwave sizing to better approximate 2d effect movements
- for shields, Gobal_tris was only holding half as many as the game can/will use, buffer is now set to full size to avoid possible rendering issues
- removed extra tcache_set on OGL spec map code, not sure how that slipped in
OGL can take advantage of this if they want but it won't break
anything if they don't. also state block code has been implemented,
that's totaly internal to D3D no high level code is involved.
still needs a lot of work, ubt the frame rates were getting with it are incredable
the biggest problem it still has is a bad lightmanegment system, and the zbuffer
doesn't work well with things still getting rendered useing the sofware pipeline, like thrusters,
and weapons, I think these should be modifyed to be sent through hardware,
it would be slightly faster and it would likely fix the problem
also the thruster glow/particle stuff I did is now in.
