* Add command-line option overrides to options system
- Extend `OptionsManager` to support storing and displaying reasons for overrides.
- Update related code paths to prioritize command-line overrides, ensure correct option resolution, and display override details in the UI.
- Add unit tests for override behavior and round-trip validation.
- Remove unused legacy functions (`removeVSyncOption`, `removeWindowModeOption`) in favor of the new system.
* Add unit tests for `Graphics.Anisotropy` option validation with and without OpenGL
* Add support for associating command-line option names to `OptionsManager` overrides
- Update HDR, shadow rendering, and graphics API option overrides to include their respective command-line flag names.
- Refactor `Graphics.RenderAPI` to use the `GraphicsAPI` enum instead of raw integers for better type safety and clarity.
- Ensure Vulkan support logic and fallback behavior function correctly with the updated options system.
- Update unit tests to validate override functionality and enum-based API configuration.
* Remove unused `removeVSyncOption` function
* Apply the PR review feedback for the command-line option overrides
Delete the unit-test run artifacts that this branch committed by mistake, and
add .gitignore rules for the files that the unittests binary writes.
Give an override priority over an in-session edit again. The options UI now
shows a disabled control for an overridden option, and setConfigValue()
refuses an edit for an overridden key. Before this change, a save wrote the
edit to the config file and applied it to the bound global, but getValue()
kept returning the override. The game and the options menu then showed
different values for the rest of the session.
Add a setOverride() overload that takes a JSON value. Every command-line flag
now builds its override with json_integer, json_real, json_true, json_false
or json_pack, in place of a hand-formatted string.
Make Graphics.CockpitFOV and Graphics.CockpitFOVToggle independent of the
order in which the options manager loads them, and remove the forced override
on the player's toggle preference. The toggle listener also replaces an
identical bind_to() call that made the listener dead code.
Add 16 to the values of Graphics.MSAASamples. The -msaa flag accepts 16, so an
override with that value made printValues() report an invalid value.
Keep the render API that the caller gives to gr_init(). Only a Default value
now comes from the Graphics.RenderAPI option, so FRED and the unit tests keep
the backend that they ask for.
Make the default_func of Graphics.Shadows and Graphics.ShadowRenderMethod
return their global. A constant discarded the value that -enable_shadows and
the mod table set. Set Max_rt_shadow_local_lights to 4, because 3 is not one
of the values that the option offers.
Also: resolve -lang one time, share the render API name with version.cpp,
correct the stale comments, and add unit tests with a fixture that clears the
overrides after each test.

* Fix the order-dependent crash in the MSAA option test
The test `MsaaOverrideAcceptsEverySampleCountTheFlagAllows` calls
`getValidValues()`. `Option<T>` makes a display string for each value, and the
display function of `Graphics.MSAASamples` calls `XSTR()`. `XSTR()` runs
`Int3()` if `lcl_xstr_init()` did not run before. Only `FSTestFixture` runs it,
and `Xstr_inited` stays set for the remainder of the process. Thus the shuffled
test order decided if the test passed or if it stopped the test binary with
SIGILL.
Move that one test to a new fixture that derives from `FSTestFixture`. The
fixture initializes localization, and it also clears the overrides after each
test. Refresh the comment that told that the test binary never runs
`lcl_init()`.

* Automatically generate the isValid() Lua API function for handle types
If an ADE object's stored type has an isValid() member, ade_obj now registers an isValid function for it automatically. An explicit ADE_FUNC(isValid, ...) declared after the ADE_OBJ replaces the generated one, so types with special semantics (e.g. sound) keep their own. The 67 hand-written functions that merely delegated to the member are removed, and 26 types that previously exposed no isValid() gain one.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <[email protected]>
* Add ADE_OBJ_VALIDATOR for index-based Lua handles
Int-index handles (shipclass, weaponclass, team, etc.) can now declare their validity predicate with a single ADE_OBJ_VALIDATOR or ADE_OBJ_VALIDATOR_RANGE line after the ADE_OBJ. The registered validator drives the generated isValid() function and is also honored by ade_set_args when the mod table asks for nil instead of invalid objects, which previously never applied to these handles. The 19 hand-written range-check functions are replaced, and loadout_ship, default_primary, default_secondary, and support_rearm_pool_team gain isValid(). Add a validator to HudGauge while we're at it.
Also fully qualify the scripting namespace in LuaConvert.h so its templates can be instantiated from the unit tests.

VulkanState.h/VulkanDraw.h: getClearColor()/setClearColor() only touch
gr_screen and other globals, no instance state, so make them static
(readability-convert-member-functions-to-static) and drop the
top-level const on getClearColor()'s return type
(readability-const-return-type).
* fix clang-tidy warning
* Extend raytraced shadows to all directional lights
RT shadows previously only shadowed the first directional light in the
scene, even though multi-sun missions push more than one directional
light into the engine. The TLAS raytraced shadows query against is
already light-agnostic, so this extends both the deferred lighting
pass and the forward MODEL shader to shadow every directional light
(capped by a new Max Raytraced Shadow Lights option, configurable via
the in-game Options menu or the Lab's Scene rendering options).
Cascaded shadow maps are untouched: they're built for a single light
only, so the deferred pass still limits itself to one shadowed
directional light whenever CSM (not raytracing) is the active method.

* refactor: improve shader flag handling and render target finalization in Vulkan backend
- Consolidate shader flag setup logic in VulkanPostProcessingLighting to simplify configuration.
- Fix dead field usage in VulkanDraw by ensuring correct image view selection for environment maps.
- Add mip chain regeneration in VulkanRenderer::endRenderTarget to ensure correct mip levels for cubemaps.
* fix: ensure correct mip chain initialization in cubemap rendering
- Add mip chain generation to VulkanDraw for cubemaps with multiple mip levels.
- Fix potential issue with uninitialized mip levels above level 0 in deferred-f.sdr sampling paths.
* fix: don't crash on startup when environment locale is unavailable
std::locale("") pulls in the process's environment locale categories
(LC_CTYPE, LC_MONETARY, LC_PAPER, etc.), and throws std::runtime_error
if any of them names a locale not installed on the host (e.g.
mismatched regional-format overrides). Since SCP_default_locale is
constructed during static initialization, before main() and before any
of our own exception handling exists, an uncaught throw here aborted
the whole process before the game even started. Fall back to the
classic "C" locale instead, which is sufficient since this locale is
only ever used for ASCII case-folding (SCP_toupper/tolower/isdigit).

* fix: add clear pass for SMAA edge detection to prevent persistent artifacts
* feat: add Vulkan debug-utils messenger, opt-in sync validation, frame diagnostics
Groundwork for the renderer-review fix series (.agents/plans/
vulkan-renderer-review-fixes.md, Phase 0):
- Register a VK_EXT_debug_utils messenger (preferred) instead of only the
deprecated VK_EXT_debug_report callback, which is kept as a fallback for
loaders without debug-utils. The messenger config is also chained into
instance creation so vkCreateInstance-time messages are captured.
Validation errors/warnings now go to the main log via mprintf.
- New -gr_sync_validation cmdline flag (implies -gr_debug): chains
VkValidationFeaturesEXT with synchronization validation into instance
creation when VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation is available. This is the
regression net for the synchronization fixes in the following commits.
- Frame stats now report descriptor sets/writes allocated per frame and the
total pipeline count (descriptor-manager counters; DescriptorWriter::flush
moved out-of-line to report into the manager).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <[email protected]>
* refactor: unify Vulkan render-pass begins, clamp in-pass clears, add per-frame UBO ring
Phase 1 of the renderer-review fix series: shared helpers that the
correctness fixes build on.
- New VulkanRenderer::beginTrackedRenderPass(PassBeginDesc): every render-pass
begin on the frame command buffer now records vkCmdBeginRenderPass and
updates the state tracker (pass, color attachment count, sample count,
render area, viewport) in one place. Converted: setupFrame,
beginSceneRendering (both branches), resumeSceneRendering,
endSceneRendering, beginRenderTarget (viewport kept for gr_set_viewport),
resumeSwapChainPass, plus new resumeScenePassAfterCopy() shared by
copyEffectTexture/copySceneDepthForParticles and
rebeginSwapChainPassAfterReadback() shared by both readbackFramebuffer
exits (~200 lines of duplicated begin/clear/viewport blocks removed).
- The state tracker records the active render area; all four
vkCmdClearAttachments sites clamp their rects against it and skip empty
results. Previously gr_screen-sized clear rects could exceed a smaller
off-screen render target's render area, which is invalid API usage.
- New PerFrameUboRing utility (VulkanPerFrameUbo.h/.cpp): a persistently
mapped uniform buffer with one slot region per frame in flight and a
self-flushing alloc(). Used by the next commit to fix the cross-frame
UBO races.
Deliberate behavior deltas (all safe-direction): the helper always sets
colorAttachmentCount/sampleCount (some sites previously inherited stale
values), and resumeSwapChainPass/resumeSceneRendering now also reset the
standard flipped viewport instead of leaving the previous one.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <[email protected]>
* fix: eliminate Vulkan cross-frame UBO/buffer races, make gr_sync honest
Phase 2 of the renderer-review fix series: with two frames in flight, several
host-visible resources were rewritten by the CPU while the previous frame's
GPU work could still be reading them.
- The post-processing scratch UBO is now a PerFrameUboRing (per-frame-in-
flight slot regions, persistently mapped, self-flushing alloc). All the
per-pass map/unmap/cursor bookkeeping in bloom/LDR/fog/SMAA is deleted;
the cursor resets exactly once per frame via the new
VulkanPostProcessor::beginFrame() hook in setupFrame.
This also fixes two latent bugs: (a) fog consumed scratch slots mid-scene
and bloom's later same-frame cursor reset overwrote them before submission
whenever fog+bloom were both active; (b) volumetric_fog_data (288 bytes)
overflowed the 256-byte slots - the memcpy spilled into the neighboring
slot and the shader's bound range ended before the aspect/fov/noise
fields. Slots are now 512 bytes (static_assert at the fog call site) and
the per-frame budget is 32 slots.
- The dedicated tonemap, output-encode, and MSAA-resolve UBOs (each a single
instance rewritten per frame, i.e. racy; the MSAA one also never flushed)
are deleted entirely - those passes build their structs on the stack and
allocate from the scratch ring.
- Static-buffer rewrites orphan instead of racing: getVkBuffer() stamps a
last-used frame number, and a full-content updateBufferData() on a Static
buffer used within the last MAX_FRAMES_IN_FLIGHT frames defers the old
VkBuffer to the deletion queue and writes a fresh one. Offset writes
(GPU-heap appends to fresh regions) and PersistentMapping buffers (the
engine holds their mapped pointer and syncs via gr_sync) are exempt.
- gr_sync_wait now honors its contract: VulkanRenderFrame::waitForFinish
takes a timeout and reports expiry without consuming the fence;
VulkanRenderer::waitForFrame returns false for fences taken during the
still-recording frame (previously it waited on a stale or idle slot and
reported success) and resolves the frame->slot mapping correctly. This
makes UniformBufferManager's segment-fence throttling actually protective
on Vulkan for the first time.

Ship_info is already an SCP_vector but MAX_SHIP_CLASSES (500) is held in
place by fixed-size structures throughout the engine and editors. This
converts the seven file-format-adjacent arrays whose persistence touches
the .csg campaign save and .plr pilot file formats:
campaign::ships_allowed [MAX_SHIP_CLASSES] -> SCP_vector<ubyte>
campaign::weapons_allowed [MAX_WEAPON_TYPES] -> SCP_vector<ubyte>
loadout_data::ship_pool [MAX_SHIP_CLASSES] -> SCP_vector<int>
loadout_data::weapon_pool [MAX_WEAPON_TYPES] -> SCP_vector<int>
scoring_struct::kills [MAX_SHIP_CLASSES] -> SCP_vector<int>
scoring_struct::m_kills [MAX_SHIP_CLASSES] -> SCP_vector<int>
scoring_struct::m_okKills [MAX_SHIP_CLASSES] -> SCP_vector<int>
The CSG and PLR file formats already store explicit counts and key by
ship/weapon names, so no on-disk format change is needed. Existing
read/write loops already iterated by ship_info_size() / weapon_info_size()
and just compile through against the new vector types.
Vectors are sized to ship_info_size() / weapon_info_size() in
scoring_struct::init(), mission_campaign_clear(), player_loadout_init(),
and the campaign-pool reset paths in csg.cpp and multi_campaign.cpp.
All of these run after weapon_init() / ship_init(), so the sizing
invariant holds. scoring_struct globals constructed at static-init time
start with empty vectors; first index access is always post-table-parse.
Multiplayer stats sync (multimsgs.cpp) now derives offsets and counts
from the vector size; added USHRT_MAX assertions on the sender side
since the wire protocol packs offset/count as USHORT. The FSTracker
sync (multi_fstracker.cpp) clamps vmt->num_ships down to the local
mod's kills.size() before transmission and guards the receive-side
write so a tracker payload with more ship slots than this mod has won't
overrun the vector.
The MAX_SHIP_CLASSES cap itself stays in place at ship.cpp:2327; this
is one prerequisite toward lifting it. The other ~25 fixed-size
ship-class-indexed structures (team_data, Ss_pool_teams, Wl_ships,
FRED2 editor arrays, qtFRED Editor::_ship_usage, etc.) remain to be
addressed in follow-up PRs.

be necessary.
* add subfolder support to cf_find_file_location_ext()
* add subfolder tests for cf_find_file_location*()
* add shlwapi to needed win32 libs
* small bit of cleanup
* add subfolder support to cf_get_file_list()
* add tests for cfile subfolder lists
* report files that might be shadowed
* fix issue with lists when a filter is used
Also fixes discrepancy in older cf_get_file_list() when a sub path
is specified (should be used in all cases, not just glob).
* address review suggestions
* Add modular ability to add intel entries
* Allow for +nocreate in modular tables
* Allow intel.tbl as an alias of species.tbl
* Additional error checking and remove tests that are no longer required
* const
This requires splitting the `used` field into digital and analog components. The digital field stores the last-used timestamp, whereas the analog field stores the last value.
Allow the variables controlling ship shudder to be independently set using scripting. Also add new flags to apply the shudder without decay and apply the shudder regardless of camera.
Also change the shudder timestamp to the new style.
* rename pilotfile::version to pilotfile::plr_ver
* Fix typo in warning message
* set plr_ver and csg_ver to PLR_VERSION_INVALID on init and close
* add PLAYER_FLAGS_PLR_VER_LOWER and *_CONTROLS flags to player defines
* Add popup to intercept the player before going into the mainhall with an old pilot
* Move the Constrols5 info popup into the mainhall
* Modifiy pilotfile::verify() to allow player flags to be passed on to callers
* Rename valid_pilot_lang() to valid_pilot()
* valid_pilot() checks plr_version of the pilot and prompts the user if they want to continue loading or not
* add no_popup param to valid_pilot() to allow scripting to use it
* Correctly clear the PLR_VER_CONTROLS player flag
* operator== is not operator+=
* don't clear player flags when closing a pilot file
* player tips popup comes after any warnings
* save committed pilot on playermenu close
* doxy playermenu::player_creat_new_pilot() and magagepilot::init_new_pilot()
* * add validation/safety catch in the barracks to prompt user if they want to select/convert a pilot with version mismatch
* PLAYER_FLAGS_PLR_VER_CONTROLS is a savable flag, cleared in the mainhall after the popup is dismiessed
* Move version flag sets in plr::load_player() and plr::verify() after calls to player_read_flags()
* Drop hints to players they should use a clone of the pilot in version prompt.
* Went ahead and added a VERSION_HIGHER flag and conditional in valid_pilot()
* Move Controsl5 notice popup into playermenu, next to the player_tips_pop(). Also allows player to "Don't show this again"
* Ignore plr version flags during unit tests since .plr -> .json conversion is never a pure clone
* Address CI issues:
* clang-tidy: use nullptr (modernize-use-nullptr)
* Add XSTR support to valid_pilot() and player_tips_constrols() popups.
* * Rename new PLAYER_FLAGS to something more descriptive
* Edit Popup text to be a bit more concise
* Add missing punctuation to language popup
Previously, the game used a dead-reckoning system for measuring time, where several time counters were incremented as long as time was running. This unfortunately has no way to synchronize time in the long term, and therefore in-game time will tend to run faster or slower than real time by a few percent, depending on various factors.
This PR redesigns the timestamp system to use the SDL time counter which will always keep it in sync with real time. However this necessarily involves a bit of clever handling when the game is paused and unpaused. It also revealed several minor bugs in several places in the code where timestamps were handled.
This PR is currently in draft status until the design can be updated to handle time compression. In all other respects it should be working.
