FSO now allows the window title to be specified via game_settings.tbl, some never-used function arguments were pruned at the same time, and fred.rc now receives version information (for the About dialogue and the title bar) from a cmake-generated header, so the version numbers get filled in properly. Speaking of FRED's About dialogue, it now displays the copyright symbol properly.
This adds support for specifying multiple sounds for a single game sound
entry. The engine then selects which sound will be played based on the
strategy provided by the game data. This required a few changes to some
of the game code since previously every game sound had exactly one sound
file attached to it. The most notable change is that it is no longer
possible to determine the exact duration a sound can have so instead the
new code computes the maximum duration a sound can have and uses that
where appropriate.
This also adds support for randomizing the pitch and volume of the sound
to provide a more varied experience even if only a single sound is used.
One possible issue that exists is that the "sequential" strategy only
works globally at the moment so if two sources use the same game sound
concurrently then the two sources will share the sequence of sounds
since there is no sound instance data at the moment. That can be added
in a future change but should not present a huge issue for most
use-cases.
Visual Studio on Appveyor somehow causes deprecation error on _our_
definition of vsprintf. I have no idea why these changes introduced this
warning but I won't debug Visual Studio compiler bugs that I can't
reproduce with my Visual Studio version so I just disabled those
warnings.
Shield impact sounds now re-use the shield quadrant calculated by the collision code instead of naively recalculating based on global hitpos, allowing the hull impact sound to play if the shot pierces shields or was fired from within the shield mesh, and simplifying the relevant calculations in the process.
I split this from #1331 to make reviewing these two changesets easier.
These changes convert all usages of const char* to SCP_string in the
static SEXP arrays so that the dynamic SEXP system can use SCP_strings
instead of having to allocate the strings and then somehow figure out
which strings must be freed at the end of the program.
This also converts the SEXP arrays to vectors so that new SEXP operators
can be added at runtime later.
This renames the functions exposed by flagset so that it's clear that
64-bit values are returned. This also cleans up usages of wrong format
specified when that value is printed which caused some issues in the
past.
This should also fix#1336.
- Add libs prebuilt with mxe
- Update cmake scripts to use them
- Make MINGW builds use the generic def_files inclusion method
- Some minor fixes to compilation
See also my comments on #762. The flag is almost entirely redundant, so this PR removes it in all instances where it's used in the ballistic primaries code. There are one or two places where removing it was not a no-op, so I adjusted the rest of the code accordingly (most notably in the parsing validation when it checks that primary weapon cargo has been assigned). I also added a few divide-by-zero checks and slightly tweaked the support ship rearm code. The use of the SIF_BALLISTIC_PRIMARIES flag in the ingame_join code was replaced with a dummy value to avoid bumping the multiplayer packet version number.
While working on #824, I found out that cleaning up that particular piece of code would not be doable cleanly without a refactor of the multi_sexp infrastructure. This is that refactor; it encapsulates the code of multi_sexp inside a class, an instance of which is then used to manage all the network stuff that sexps need to do.
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.
